eye alightcd on one Of the snakes.
Looking about he saw another But
he kept on with the conversation.
Then turtle caught his eye, and then
frog and then another snake. But
he never weakened bit until he saw
the rattlcr twncd around the lamppost.
That settled him. "lou must excuse

into the store and took Il morphine

cratic usages, and still are, though
neither playing the fiddle nor shooting
ducks arc put in any modern platform.
But the issue now is concerning the
currency, an abtruse speculative ques-
ton about which the average man
knows so little that he ought to be
ashamed to talk and thereby show his
ignorance. And yet there are here
and there good citizens who profess to
know all about it and will talk about
"sound money" and Jeffersonian De-
mocracy as gushingly as a professor OF
political economy in 4 Northern col
lege.
wish we could put the X rays up
on this question and explore it, but as
we cannot and as the great men of the
nation conscientiously differ on it
am going to pin my faith to the purest
and best man know of in public life.
He is as pure in private life and as
poor as Jefferson and could have writ
ten the declaration of independence if
he had lived in that day, for Jefferson
was then only thirty-three years old.
Ny admiration for William j. Bryan
is very great and I shall bank on him
with more reliance than on the plat
form. A Republican Congress can
knock Democratic platform into fits.
but they cant move Mr.. Bryan from
his convictions nor his integrity.
When these gold standard papers as,

say to them as Job did to his three
friends: ''No doubt ye are the people
