"Bryan's chances are improving every
day There has been a perccptible
change In the last two weeks. Ono Of
the strongest factors in the Republican
campaign until recently is now one Of
its greatest weaknesses and that is the
prodigal use Of money. There is a re-
volt among the workingmen especially
against the apparent use Of money by
the Republicans Il would have boon
far more effective II they had depended
more on the live issues Of the campaign.
A it Is now, the money that Hanna is
using IL the party's greatest weakness. I"
What do you think Of the situation

CANADIAN STATESMEN.
How They Act While Attending Their
Duties In Parliament.

It is a mistake to think that the act
which led to the confederation of the
various provinces in 1867 has attained
no higher meaning in the life of the
Canadian people than that OF a con-
stitutional union. 1t carries with it a
meaning Of far deeper import--a union
Of hearts, whose offspring is oneness of
patriotic aim and purpose. Of course
it would be idle to say that the Cana
dian people are unit upon all ques-
tions of vital interest to the life and
growth of the dominion. The geo.
graphical interests of Canada are so
varied that there must necessarily be
at times some friction and clashing Of
provincial needs and ambitions. This
is the case at Washington; this is the
case, too, in so small confederation
as the cantons of Switzerland.
A stranger visiting the gallery of the
Canadian house of commons is struck
with the dignity and decorum which
mark the proceedings and surround
even the warmest and keenest of de-
bates. Parliamentary procedure be-
ing rigidly adhered to, there is little
room for unseemly encounters, which
usually grow out of uncallcd for per-
sonalties in the heat of a discussion.
Sometimes, however, when the house
has been sitting for hours, wearied
with the perplexities and incoherencies
of some member from sway back" sud-
denly, as if through the unity of des-
peration, the usual dignity of the house
is relaxed and grave members from
such intellectual centers as Montreal
and Toronto play the schoolboy and
outvic one another in "shying" blue
books at the heads of slumbering and
inoffensive members. OF the 215 mema
bers that make up the house of com
mons, in point of ability and gifts, 20
per cent. of them are below mcdiocrity;
20 per cent. of them occupy the plane of
mediocrity; 40 per cent. possess ad-
mitted ability, and the remaining 20
per cent. are men of Recommending talent.

An Abiding Confidence.
