1t was a great outrage on decency
for those illiterate, i'll bred Populists
and Anarchists to make noises when
the representatives of Democracy,
Gov. O'FerraH and Gen. Buckner,
were speaking at Richmond last week,
and when that other Democratic rep
resentative, Capt. Bumgardner, was
speaking at Amherst Court House a
short time since. But what could
have been expected else, when the fol-
lowers of Bryan whom they no doubt
were, are the scum and scrapings of
the country, the murderers, the con
victs, the thieves, the ignorant labor
ers, and whiskered hayseeders. It is
useless to expect this class of people to
be genteel or do any but the most dis
graceful acts at any and all times.
What must be said, however, when
Yale students, the sons of millionaires,
educated, refined, civilized, pure, beau
tlful and good. Kissed the candidate
for the presidency, Kissed indeed the
next President of the United States.
What are we to reply when pointed at
and told that this occurred at New
Haven in the State of Connecticut,
near one of the greatest seats OF learn
ing in the country? We have tried to
apologize. We have said this was only
students pranks, they thought they
were at church, or visiting some young
ladies; that Mr.. Bryan probably never
had the honor of having about him
before any of the upper ten. and pro-
baby never was much at college and
they were now giving him a benefit
he had not previously enjoyed. That
Mr.. Bryan being from the West and
ignorant of good manners mistook the
motive and thought they meant some
thing personal, when in fact it was
ignorance. That these boys were not
graduates of Yale and. therefore Yale
as yet ought not to be responsible for
their conduct, that these boys fathers
may have told them not to make noises
when Mr.. Bryan was speaking, and
they were only showing their contempt
for their governors" or that possibly
they were scared at the anarchist and
screamed from fright. or that it all
came from severe and sudden attack
Of cholera infantum We will stake
our existence that there has been
mistake somewhere, that such treat
ment could not have taken place in
refined Connecticut's capital without
there being q mistake committed by
melody, and we sincerely trust it
was Mr.. Bryan who made the mistake
in being found there, rather than the
action of the students who found him
there. The anarchists and populists
and hayseeders and other disreputa
bic people who make up Bryan's fol-
Loving, AID who make noises when the
true Democracy attempt The task Of
education, are yerv much worried
over the action of these Yale students,
because in the game of vulgarity the
Yale boys whitewashed them. and
is.se wcH not only the pennant. but
