SLY. VERY SLY.

The New York Mail and Express pro
poses this toast. Long life to the Ma
tional Democracy" and under it puts the
following sentiment:
ct is difficult to understand why there
should be any serious division OF opinion
among the sound-mOney Democrats as 10
the advisability of maintaining the new
organization. the National Democracy IN
every State where II inquired CURING the
recent campaign
And then the Mail and Express pro-
ceeds. as it were, to speak to its own
toast. its remarks being confined princi-
pally to praise Of the Boilers and abuse OF
the Democratic party.
We are not surprised that the Mail and
Express wishes the Boilers long life and
prosperity. 1t would be the basest in
gratitude on its part not to DO so, con-
sidering the aid the Boilers rendered the
Republican party in electing Mckinley.
Nor are we surprised that our New York
contemporary should encourage its allies
to hold together as an organization We
can well understand that it has a double
reason for giving this encouragement.
The artful and grateful Mail and Express
would not only keep the organization in
tact for use in q future process Of duping,
but it well knows that a formal merger
of the Boilers into the Republican party
might necessitate a wide distribution Of
the loaves and fishes. The Mail and Ex-
press is not the only Republican paper
that is engaged in putting up the Boilers
with the idea that they hold the balance
Of political power to the end Of keeping
them in line as a reserve auxiliary and
at the same time preventing them from
giving trouble in respect of the spoils.
These Republican papers are sly, very
sly

THE VENEZUELA COMPLICATION

Lord Salisbury's remarks al the Guiiu-
hall banouet touching the controversy
between this country and Great Britain
over the venezuelan boundary line ques-
ton may be accepted az formal deoi"-
ration that the incident is pracucalS
closed. All true Americans VIII rejoice
that an amlcable adjustment oil the com
,it.ation has been reached and that the
d.rger Of our relations with "reae
Rritain being further strained Is over
passed. Yet no true American can regret
The incident or the excitement IL eauseu
throughout the United states.
The agitation OF the question IN Con
rress and by the American press had the
effect Of convincing the European fo"erS
that the Monroe doctrine was not mere
vague sentiment OF tradition win u.s.
but n practical. serious. patriotic polcy'
that If necessity should arise, would be
enforced AT all hrzards. Although, when
the excitement was at its height soou
deal Of absurd jingoism was mahiles'eu'
under this was unmistakable evidence I'M" .
the masses. regardless Of political aihlla-
tion. and section, were almost unit IN
their determination to support the admin
istratlon in any position it might take
TO prevent the infringement Of the doc
trine.
The controversy has resulted in de-
filming more clearly and sharply than II
had ever been defined before the attitude
of the United States on the Monroe do 70
trine. II has cleared up a haze that d
long hung over the European mind IN
respect Of what we consider. under MI
Monroes celebrated enunciauon, our own
obligations to our Central and South
American neighbors and our duty
TO ourselves as a nation. 1t has
strengthened the prestige Of the
United States abroad, served notice
that will not be disregarded against
European trespass upon this hemisphere
and erected a safeguard against misun-
Outstanding and trouble in the future
AS it turns out therefore, the complica-
ton was a happy one for us and for the
South and Central American republics.

who for the past three years has been

dist church. left yesterday for Lynchburg
TO attend the annual session OF the Nir-

pressed a desire for change 1t is very
certain that he will not return TO this
town. DR.. Booker is an old Virginia gen
tleman OF liberal culture and preacher
Of great acceptabllty. lie has made hosts
Of friends here In and out OF his Church,
who sincerely regret that he Will not
remain in Onancock any longer.
The handsome Presbyterian church, re-

The Election and Several Things
ThereuntO Appertnining.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
| cut from the Sunday School Times, Of
Philadelphia. TWO weeks ago. little slip
which / thought in case of our defeat
would be consoling and at the same time
instructing TO the other side. 1t is as
follows:
1T is better to be defeated than to
conquer by unfair means. Whether it is
in parior game or a matter of state
craft, dishonorable practices are, in the
long run and I'm the nobest interests. "A
losing business. Character is won where
points are lost. and defeat is an honor
when it comes through being honorable"
This is sound logic. and Will be until
the end Of time. Il is a refreshing thought
that some things never change.
What a hero is our leader, William J.
Bryant What about nervous prostra-
ton" of which we near so much now
adays? When Or. Tanner said some
years ago that ne could fast forty days
] pronounced him a fool. but / was the
fool. an epithet i find Is often appropriate
to myself as well as 10 some others.
Tanner taught a great lesson on the pos
sibiities Of the human organism. Mr..
Bryan has given great hope and en-
couragement ina another and more inn
portant matter. j refer 10 the possibili-
ties Of speech and the spread Of the
Gospel. What an evangelist such man
would make, speaking 10 10000 men
day on the great issues OF life and DEATH
May not God In the near future raise mp
such a man. filing him with greater
wisdom and surprising eloquencei What
ease in collecting by railroads great
audiencesl What endurance of speech!
Alr. Wesley preached three and four
times a day often. Bryan spoke eight
and ten times q day for mOR,hs, and
there has followed no nervous prostra-
ton" Nowadays a young divine with
three sermons a week and some young
doctors Of five years practice are so
afflicted with this "malady' that they
have to take a vacation Of two or three
months in the mountains or 80 TO Europe
to recover lost nervous power. Mr. Bryan
is a splendid object lesson on this inn
portant subject.
Like pure gold and silver, In which he
believes, his character has become more
beautiful and illustrious by friction. From
beginning to end from first 10 last, he
IS triumphant In spirit The explanation
is easy and simple. He has character and
capacity most happily combined. We
hope he has a special mission. What
fighter His first blow was az New York
the citadel of the enemy. Standing alone
i'm this great metropolis with the simple
sling Of truth in his hand, he flung his
powerful missiles right and left amid the
enemy. Paul fought against principal
ties and powers; Bryan against great
governments, numberless banks. railroads
great trunk lines. teegraphs trusts.
combines. corporations. and all the greed
of London and New York. and he fell
fighting with his face TO the foe. Cast
down but not destroyed" ne viii rise
again-rise with increased strength and
wisdom. All hail thou prince Of men,
thou gallant leader Of thy people!.

The overwhelming defeat last week Of
Mr.. Pat. McCauu. the Eighth District

verify a sore subject to the King George

not have sorrowed more had Mckinley
been defeated.
The advent Of winter Sunday brought

dlssenslons in the party here combined
with that offence TO make him persona
non erata" ,at court. and TO cause the
National Committee 20 appoint Mr.. Scott
as a sort of curator for the Republican
party IN this state.
And. now that the campaign is over,
we hear nothing Of what is In store FOR
Colonel Lamb Judge Waddill, 1t is said,
Will be taken care Of. General J. a. Walker
is mentioned in connection with various
positions. and Colonel Brady. Il appears.
may be Collector OF Internal Revenue
again: and the gold" Democrats re-
ccive honorable mention; but not once
do we hear Colonel Lambs name.
This. we respectfully submit, Is not
treating the Colonel right. He has made
more sacrifices for his party than any
of the others; yet his devotion is unap-
preciated and unrowardod. This con-
vnces us that. not only republics but
Republicans, are ungrateiul.
The only consolation for the Colonel
that we know Of IS that Mr.. Reed is ie-
putcd TO be his friend. Mr.. Reed Will be
Speaker Of the House again, ana, though
he will have little patronage 10 besiow'
he will have great power in Washington
politics. Once safe I'm the Speakers
chair, Tom Reed may WELD an influence
TO which the President himself VIII be not
insusceptible Let us hope that Tom VIII

made to suffer 50 much because he was
