Of the temptations that are spread in his
way, and how events sometimes shape
themselves to control the very strongest
men once they reach that attractive eleva-
tion. These men, therefore, are not likely
to be spurred to any extra exertion because
of this promise of Mr.. Bryan not to be in
their way in the presidential race of 1900.
Without doubling the sincerity of the reso-
luton he announces, they will try him by
the rule of conduct generally obtaining
among men, and conclude-and doubtless
very justly-that, under pressure, he will
OF prove superior to the rule.
A great many wise and eminent men
think there ought to be a constitutional
prohibition against second presidential
term, and for the same reason that Mr..
Bryan in his letter gives. The office of
President is one of great power, and the
exercise of power in a free country is a
very delicate task. 1t is nevertheless true
that some of the most valuable services
performed for the country are to the credit
of Presidents who were indorSed by the
people at the polls for a second term.
Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe
ard Jackson share in this honor. Mr.. Lin
cclD's denomination was a necessity, and
his taking off an unspeakable calamity.
Ielieve. would, had it been completed by
him, have yielded the country priceless
results. General Grants second term was
not a success, but his denomination had
been accomplished without his having to SO
much as lift his finger. General Harrison
was easily renominated, and thousands OF
men still lament the fact that he was not
reelected.
Mr.. Bryan If he reaches the White House,
will not, as an occupant OF the Presidents 8
chair, be exempt from the ills or the inf1u-
ences that Presidents are heir to. On the
contrary, it is nothing in derogation of him
to say that of all the men ever sitting there
he will be the pet object Of their attack.
The head of an aggressive coalition, pledged
to policies designed to revolutioniZe the
government, and certain If inaugurated to
plunge everything into confusion and doubt;
surrounded by lieutenants Of ardent loyalty
to him and to their common purpose; barely
turned forty in 1904 time of life when
the great majority of men are just begin
ming public careers; will this man be per-
mi.ted by his followers to retire at the
close Of one term? Not much! The machine
of his own construction, and powerful
throughout the country-would put him up
again at all hazards, and in worshipfui
disregard Of his own promises and protests.
But so far as the people in general are
concerned, Mr.. Bryan's personal ambition
as regards a second term is Of little conse-
quence in comparison with the policies he
represents. The question is the cost of one
term of such a President. Can the country
stand that?

VIII the Promises he Kept.

This is the day when the lexington and
Belt Street Railroad Companies should
have at least two three compressed-air
cars on their tracks. The objection has. of
course, been raised by the companies that
the term begin to equip does not really
mean that cars should be operated by this
date. The public is not likely to dispute
over techncalities if 1t discovers d genuine
disposition on the part of the combined
corporations to comply broadly. with the
provisions of the law that compelS the
adoption and use of suitable mechanical
motor. The Star is willing-for while at
least-to believe that a sincere effort is
being made TO obey the statute. The move
ment toward obedience is. ii is true. delib-
crate. but ii has the appearance of being
real. There is no reason why compressed
air motors should not succeed here. Nor is
there any reason why the Eckington-Belt
Company should not procure a sufficient
supply OF the best motors manufactured.
The lexington and Belt concerns have at
times apparently delighted in tantaIizing
and deceiynls the public. The present
management repudiates all responsibility
for what has happened and promises to do
the fair thing. We shall soon see what the
most recent promises are worth.

MIR. Bryan and "a Second Term.

Mr.. Bry ans declaration against second
term In the White House is intended espe-
cially for the eyes Of the leaders Of his
party. He wants their most active and
effective support in this race, and he
appeals to them adroitly on their selfish
side Politicians are very human, as Mr..
Bryan knows, and there are conditions
under which they work more willingly
than under others.
AZ adroit. however. as this appeal is 1t Is
hardly likely to accomplish all that Mr.
Bryan desires. The men to be reached are

RIDES A THREE WHEEL CYCLE.
REV. MONTGOMERY's NEW
WHEEL HAS A TANDEM CASTOR

W AAAA<A AA<A3 n AMEN 0kAH9 OINs
Rev. #. e. Montgomery now rides
out from the Clayton House
every day on cycle which
promises to be an innovation in
local wheeling circles. Pastor Mont
gomery's cycle is composed Of three
wheels running tandem.
Numerous joints and bearings dis
tribute the weight of the rider over
the three wheels instead Of two. He
rests upon a flexible frame or back
bone, which admits of the rise or de-
preston of either of the three wheels
Independent Of the other Each, in its
turn, carries its own proportion OF the
weight OF the rider.
81 have adopted this new invention,
said Mr.. Montgomery to-day, because
while running fully as easy on smooth
roads as any bicycle, IL runs far easier
on rough, stony or country roads OF
over ruts.
This cycle runs like the safety, and
the third wheel, a small one, trails be-
hind on the principle OF a castor. II
carries its third OF the weight and re-
quires no attention. l have been rid
ing wheels since the days of the old
ordinary, and / find that comfort to
the rider means speed to the machine.
