SOME POINTS TO RE REcKoNEp WITH


To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir Vanity Is not reckoned an element Of great
ness but II Is often associated with IT, Thi. trite
observation Is suggested BY Governor Morion's
candidacy NETWORKS Governor Ia no. humor-
is like Mr.. Depew. and must conclude that
he is in dead earnest and not willingly and consc-
ously being worked by Mr.. Plat.
In the West. where the political atmosphere for
three years and more has been urid With fiery de-
nuncia ions OF bondholders. the money power Wall
Street etc, the proposal TO bring forward a repre-
scntation OF these so-callcd denominations seems
grotrsque. and. notwithstanding the oft-repeatcd
protestatiors OF your New-York politicians that
they really mean IL. the public refuses 10 believe
Undoubtedly ~ people with judgment capable OF
rising superior to ignorant prejudice win conced
all that Is claimed for Governor Morton. but there
Is a strong undercurrenl. which frequently comes
TO the top. OF democratic. not to say socallstio
sentiment. which practical politicians will no,
ntedessly affront.
Mr. Depew. account OF his good stories ard
great good nature. is very popular in all sections
and would certainly make an excellent President,
bat vanity does not hid. from his clear insight
the knowledge OF his unavailabii.ty. Can so much
be said OF Governor Morton? Owing TO the intense

A young man, Henry Brsalt, . rod
dent Of Peterboro, Ont, recently par
formed an act of heroism, sctuated By
frisndship. which u worthy Of record
among the heroic deeds Of heroic msn
Of any age. The Manchester Union
says that Brault and another young
man, John Jameson, were At work In
the wild Madawaslsa region for the 6t.
Anthony Lumber company. Jameson
met with severe accident which rem
dered him delirious, and Brault started
with him for civilization, where gurRa-
cal treatment could be had. They had
travelled ON foot but . few hundred
yards when Jamiesou's strength gave
ont and he became helpless. Brault
determined to save his companion II IN
his power, shouldered the invalid and
started on his long, cold tramp OF some
forty miles to the nearest railroad.
Without a moments sleep, and bearing,
besides his human burden, . pack OF
provisions, Brault continued his Jour.
ney for four days and nights, through
cold and snow, until finally, almost ~
helpless from exhaustion and fatigue a.
his friend was from Illness, he had the
supreme satisfaction Of reaching the
end Of his journey and placing Jamie-
son where he was able to be properly
treated Such feat Of endurance
seems almost incredible, and only ,
seasoned woodman, Injured to hardahip,
could have accomplished 1t; and among
those capable Of it It is rare to find 30
striking an example Of disinterested
friendship, even when human life y
at stake. Whatever his station In life
may be, young Brault deserves to rank
among natures noblemen.
Six weeks ago suffered with very
severe cold; was almost unable to sp ,ak.
NY friends all advised me to consult
q physician. Noticing Chamberlain 4
Cough Remedy advertised In the 81
Paul Volks ZeitnnQ procured N bottle.
and after taking 1t a short time wns
entirely well. I now most heartily re.
commend this remedy to anyone s'iffrr-

Getting Red Hot.

Our readers are familiar with the
recent fight in the Republican state
central committee, whereby the Nc
Kinleyites .stole march" on the ma
jority, or Bryan supporters, and cap
tured the party machinery. Well. the
Bryan Republicans finding themselves
outwitted, called another meeting OF the
committee, at Denver on the 18th. but
the gold-bug faction not only did not
recognize the meeting as legal, but met
on the 10th and formerly ''fred" all
Bryan supporters Oh the gold Reput-
lican state committee.
Following is the "onicial" order ex-
pelling Hon. John w. Lowell from the
Republican party and as committeeman
from Routt county:
whereas, j. W. Lowell has ceased
to affiliate with the Republican party
and become an ayowed supporter Of
Bryan and Sewall, nominees of the ma
tional Democratic party; that his name
be dropped from the list Of committee
men in Routt county"
Mr.. Lowell, will no doubt feel hurt at
being "fired" from the gold committee
by Mark uanna's hirefngs. but he will
doubtless consider the source and pay
no attention to the rawlings Of The VOL
colt gold faction.
AS to his present political status, Mr..
Lowell told the writer, during his late
visit here, that he considered himself as
good Republican now as he was when,
after the battle of Bull Run. he resigned
his position as principal of the school at
Rochelle, ILL.,, and gave up salary of
$I00 a month to accept one Of $l3
and carry a musket in defense Of the
Union; that he was no better Republi-
can at the close of the war, when lie
was mustered out Of the army as com.
mander Of the artillery brigade OF the
Sixteenth army corps, than be is to-day;
but that he had repeatedly and publicly
declared. during the past four years
that II his own party at any time
abandoned silver and the Democratic
took it up and made 1t an national issue
he would support the presidential nomi-
nees Of the latter party, which he is now
doing with all his might and main.
Mr.. Lowell points out that he is,not
only living up to his pledges but to his
convictions on the financial question,
which overshadows all others at the
present time, and he proposes to stand
by both.
TIE 1sIJ. HHFA1Rs "a BEadidtBs knyh ;hSi posi!
tion, on either tho district or state

him substantial evidence of the esteem
In which he is held at home.
