| MIR Bryan has been for some wears ai
| attorney in that city. Now 4 grca'
| part of an attorneys success is base,
upon his reputation for sound bust
ness Judgment. and his ability t,
transact business affairs sa@aciousl,
and well tor other men. 1t Mr. BrNal
had enjoyed that reputation. does amy
| one doubt that he would have sue
credcd in building UP a large and Iu
| crativc law practice in his own city.
The fact that he did not build up sucl
a practice. and that he WAS glad Il
| practically abandon his law Office fol
| AIRY, is pretty good proof that thos,
who know him bcst-thc people of hi,
own city do not regard him as n bust
ness man. He is impatient of detail,
and lacking in the executive faculty
Surely man who was unable 10 Sc
cure enough business 10 do for 1ho
people of his own huStliug city. Ia
yield him a competent income. is not
the one that thoughtful citizens
would naturally select to supcrjulcntl
the business of Il government of TO-
oo0,000 of people.
Mr.. Hryan is, undoubtedly, a man
of very sanguiuc temperament lie
is also Il good elocutioniSt. Contrary
to the general impression. Mr. Bryan
is not good cNtemporc speaker. Ills
so-callcd great speeches" have been
carefully elaborated and polishcdand
practiced before the mirror. prior to
their delivery. The one that struck
the Popocratic cord AT Chicago. and
secured him his nomination. was an
old one that he had delivered before.
and II has since TRANSFERRED that its
most striking figures of speech were
borrowed from the works of others
As we have said Mr.. Bryan is a san
guine man. He is thoroughly i'm
man of destiny" There can be little
doubt though but what he WAS him
self surprised, and a trihe dazcd. at
the cyclonic effects of his Chicago
speech. lie became greatly impressed
with his own greatness. He believed
himself TO be possessed of Il hypnotic
power peculiarly adapted to the con
troll of the American masses. After
the astounding exhibition of this
power upon the long-hars and the
hair-brains, of the Chicago convention.
and the amazing results that come from
it it is not surprising that he should
have been more or less impressed with
tins view of things. 1t is not strange
under such circumstances that he
should have been profoundly inn
pressed with Il sense of his own ire
sistibility.
This showed at once in his change
OF manner. He bctook himself to the
inner recesscs of his rooms at the
hotel and friends who had formerly
been accustomed to go to his door
and knock. and. upon hearing his cor
dial and sonorous Come" 10 enter
and slap him heartily upon the back
with a cheerful 'IIowdy Bill'' etc.
were thenceforth required to send NJ
their cards and ascertain in advance
whether or not the great man would
see them.

Mr.. Bryan Disappointment to His Friends.

Probably no man in the United
States has ever been more chargincd
and disappointed than was w. j.
Bryan over the lamcntablc tasco of
his speech at Madison Square Garden,
when the big crowd that greeted him.
fairly trampled upon one another's
heels in their eagerncss to get away
from his long and tiresome TRADE.
Mr.. Bryan is not deep or a logical
man. He is Il man OF brilliant sur
faces accustomed to deal in sophis-
triesa appeal to popular preiudices.
No better estimate of Mr.. Bryan
could possibly be found than the one

, move was dictated by the demands O
prudence populists are such eNuber
ant fcllows-and we do not mention il
| in any critical spirit: but simply tc
! show how the demands of ''des
! tiny sometimes operate upon a man
life.
From the Chicago convention Mr.
| Bryan returned to his home in Lin
coli, Nebraska where Il local paper
says he exhibited a 'boyish zeal tc
! take his nomination out and show il
10 the rest of the boys" and why
shouldn't he: He had snapped an old
| speech tor ii and naturally felt proud
of his trade. though it vet remains
| to he seen whether or not he got the
best of it.
| Naturally the people of Lincoln
we're DESTROYS that Mr. Bryan should
| receive the official notification of his
nomination at his own home. 1t
would they thought bring Il good
| many out-of-toWn people into the
city. increase the trade in cigars and
soda etc, and. in this way. contribute
70 He prosperity Of the community.
i;ut Mr.. Bryan had other plans.
Impressed with a sense of his own
hypnotic powers. he felt that the en-
Nirunmcnts of Lincoln were far TO cir
cumScrihcd TO give proper scope TO
his powers on such an August occa-
sion. lie was anxious to plunge al
once into the thick of the fray. He
would goat once into the heart of the
cncmv's country" He would 90 to
New York. lie would speak to the
multituleS from the rear platform of
thctran and Strai@htWay convert them
all to the theory that the wealthy
silver mine owners of the country
were deserving of an enormous addi-
tion to their already big profits at
the expense of the American people.
Arriving at the great metropolis he
would weave his hypnotic spell over
the great thron" that would assemble
at Madison Square Garden. and at
once the great empire state would be
his.
Then. amid the plaudits of millions
of new found admirers. he would Jour
ncy to Maine. Here he would make
one or two speeches -enough TO insure
a sweeping Popocratic victory, and
then, with the great East securely
tucked away in his vest pocket, he
would sercnely journey back to the
great West. and. with one or two
speeches to keep things humming
there. would calmly await the great
tidal wave whichhc felt confident was
to carry him into the White House in
November
This. IN brief. was Mr.. Bryan's plan
OF campaign. Anyone will readily see
how complete and comprehensive it
was. But Alas.
The best laid schemes omice ana men
Gang aft agley:
And leave us not but grief and pain
For promised Joy"
The speeches from the rear of the
train were Il frost. They were out of
Mr.. Bryan's best line of effort, and
were weak and tiabby. The people
could not help comparing them with
thenasterly cross country speeches of
James &. Blaine, and Benjamin Harri-
