There is no longer any doubt that the
entire moral force OF the Democratic
party, It's stability, character. and iutelli~
gcnce, has decided TO oppose Bryan
Thousands Of these voters viii support
Mckinley as the surest way of defeating
Bryan. and thousands more viii vote for
Palmer ard Buckuor. The great useful
ness Of the latter ticket lies In the fact
that it gives opportunity FOR democrats
TO enter the campaign win speeches ana
documents against Bryan. The speeches
at the Louisville ratification meeting on
Saturday by Mcssrs. Palmer and Buckner
and by Messrs. Canery and Bynum go 20
Democrats as the views OF Democratic
leaders whom the party hcnors ana trusts,

turning Democrats away from biy iil lu,,i,

But Mr.. Bryan know somewhat; and
find in his habits of life many things
tn admire He is n man of undoubted
talent, a talent for the stage, perhaps,
rather than for statccraft. He is kind
husband and an indulgent father. He
does not smoke or chew. drink or swear.

single redceming vice that know OF.
unless il might he lying: and even there
| have had spells of thinking he believes
himself. Moreover Mr.. Bryan is a man
of rare eloquencc. although anyone read
ing his speeches would be pardoned for
doubling the assertion. Reduced to
cold type his words become mere rant
and bombast. while those self-same
words. spoken in Bryans voice-a voice
as mellifluous as the sweetest pipe in
Wonder organ-would stir your heart.
just as would the voice of great sim
ger. by the very quality of tone. Add to
this a handsome. graceful presence and
n fire and energy of action. and you can
imagine that it matters very little to
Mr.. Bryan's audience what Mr.. Bryan
says, so long as he keeps on saying it,.
The mistake he made in Madison
Square garden was in the attempt TO ar
que. He ought never to do that. for
the divine attribute of reason was left
out of his mental makeup.
But, my friends. there Is not word
in this encomium which would not with
equal truth and appropriateness apply
To another famous Nebraskan. whose ex-
ploits are inseparably linked with the
history of Omaha: whose habits are as
regular as the sun. whose character is
ms impeccablc us Bryan's own, whose
presence is just as handsome. whose
powers of speech were formerly just as
great and have wrought many an audi
ence to tears. to laughter and to fren-
w: n man who. like Bryan, was pos
sessed of talking devil. and who today.
i'm Madison square. New Iork-that
bourne from which no Ncbraskan seems
ever to rcturn-is feeding brcadcrumbs
to the sparrows. That man is George
Francis Train. And il must be remem-
bered that Mr.. Train once ran for the
presidency. just as Mr.. Bryan is doing.
on n ticket of his own. l say that the
ticket ON which Mr.. Bryan is running
for the presidency is essentially his
own, although two other gentlemen have
been casually mentioned in connection
with it-one trying to get off and the
other trying to get on. Here. you OBJ
serve. is n sort of political cerebus. with
not the best of feeling between the ca.
nine collaterals. Mr.. Bryan's predica-
ment is not without embarrassment He
must feel as bcwildered with these two
appendices as the proverbial cat with
like number of tails. He has probably
prevailed upon Mr.. Sewall to stay where
he is, whereas Tom Watson wants to
know. He wants to know where he is
''at." He wants to know whether he is
candidate for the vice-presidency or
only n yermiform appendix.

Effect of Imitation.
SENATOR LODGE.

Well, il il easy to mark up prices. A
man can go over his stock of goods in
the morning and mark them up with n
blue pencil; but you cannot go over the
salaries and the wages of this country
with blue pencil in the morning and
mark them up.
During our war, when we had an in
flated currency and prices rose, the aver
age price of commodities rose 50 per
cent: labor rose about 40 per cent.
There was net loss to labor of about
80 per cent, net reduction of wages to
that extent Labor always, in case of
n depreciated currency, lags behind 9TH
er prices. 1t Is inevitable; all history
and all experience shows il. They tried
Il in France in the last century; they
tried the imitation of the currency to the
last extent. You read the history of
that period: you find In the debates of
the French convention at the time of the
Reyolution-which resembled good
deal, In many respects, the convention at
Chicago-you find 1t constantly said
ave are so great; France is so powerful
SO civilized, so free, that she can raise
the price of money, she can maintain
any system she wants" And they issued
the assignats based on the public land;
there was land behind them all; they
were not merely irredeemabie paper;

And spOuted and brayed

For rooster to pin on his hat.
He whooped like an imbecie loon.
For candidate fussy and fat.
Whose inflated renown
Soon collapsed and came down;
And II felt Ike punctured balloon,

Now his partsans float In the soup.
Along with the bill they bcgat.
The cuckoos all sigh
For their vanishing pie:
And the rooster Is sick with the roup,

Poor rooster that rode on the hat
And poverty sits In the seat,
My boy,
Where competence formerly sat,
And the laboring man,
Through this fatuous plan.
Is now left with nothing to eat

But the rooster he wore on his hat.
Then take warning and never forget.

And the laborer long will regret,
