Bryan said: There is no probability

injuriously affected by free wool than
It has been by protection; or. perhaps.
1t would be more accurate to say that
It has existed and will exist indepen-
dent Of any tariff legislation"
Free wool has been so injurious that

e Subject In Speeches.
Candidate Bryan Is avoiding the tar
III question in his speeches. There a
good reason for this avoidance. He
was one of the makers of the wilson
German act, and defended It on the
floor of the house In 1894. It was his
opinion then that the measure was a
great boon to the people Of the United
States, a relief from onerous taxation
and what the free trade professors
chose to call the robbery of protection.
He supposed that he had performed
q great service when he helped to force
the bill through congress-, but the
event showed that he was entirely mis-
taken and wholly ignorant of the in
dustrial life of this country. His bill
brought widespread ruin and poverty;
so he is not saying anything about 1t
now.
Having fooled himself and the ma
jority Of the American people once
Mr.. Bryan seems to have found the
business attractive. and, like other
fakirs. he sets up new stand with
a new device and employs his full
lung power to advertise his wares. AL
though his stock is worthless and his
reputation for reliability nothing, he
shouts increasingly into the ears of
the people that 50-cent dollars and
plenty of them are the great need
of the time. II asked about his prom
ises In recommending free trade he
cannot hear. and continues to talk
about the oppression which the peo-
pie suffer because they are unable to

A Cow to the Rescue.

Winden, La, Feb. "A.
Henry Adams, a young man
living in the Black Lake coun-
try below this place, had a mar
row escape from death a few
deys since, his life being saved
in a most miraculous manner by
a COW. Adams had gone into the
swamp in search of some wild
hogs which had strayed from his
fathers pens, establishing them
selves in the forest, and feeding
upon the abundant mast afforded
by the oaks and beeches.
By some miSchance while ia
hot pursuit of a big hog, the
young man ran into an unsus-
pected quicksand, the first step
sinking him up to his middle in
the death-trap.
Adams had the presence of
mind not to make a struggle to
escape, and began at cnce to
call for help, thinking some
hunter might hear. No response
came to his repeated calls, hows
ever, and he felt himself grad
ually sinking to his death. 1t
CHANGED that there was neither
overhanging tree O shrub
within reach Of his .out-stretched
hand, and knowing that any at
tempt to release himself unaided
would be vain. Adams aban-
doned hope aud gave himself up
for lost.
At this critical moment a sin
gular thing happened. A COW
which had been browsing in the
wood, being attracted by Adams
calls, no doubt, approached the
spot. With her feet firmly
planted on safe ground she hung
her head with its long projecting
horns we'll over the dangerous
q%uicksand, finally, by her lowing
and her motions attracting
Adams attention. The young
man says the COW moved her
head up and down and from side
to side repeatedly, as much as to
say, Come, let me help you"
At last he understood and reach
ing up he grasped the cows
horns when she very promptly
pulled him out eff the treacherous
sand and landed him safe and
sound on the firm ground.
