A CASE OF DEpRAylTY.

Bryan has created quite a sensation in
Mexico. He appears to be appreciated
there. There has long been an impress
sion In the American mind that there
was some sort OF affinity between him
and the Mexcans. He is In his element
down there, and Diaz would better be
careful or he will be running against
him for president.-BoiseS Statesman.
That is about rs dirty and disrep-
utable piece of bile and glazing
journalistic depravity seen in many
days. Thank God, the hope of de-
cent journalism is not here reposed,
and that, among all the goldbug
newspaper enemies of Mr.. Bryan,
there is perhaps not another in the
whole nation quite so low as to print
a thing like that Even the most
radical administration journals of
New York, Philadelphia and Chicago
recognize that a man who can in q
half dozen years, by the sole force
of his matchless genius and physical
and mental powers, rise from obsour-
ity and poverty to become the leader,
head and front of the second largest
political party in the world, is not to
be sneeringly compared with Mexican
greasers. If the man who commands
the votes and support of six million
intelligent men in a nation like this
is to be spoken of in this manner by
pretended journals of said country,
what is there in political honor?
What is the hope of the world if in
this nation one-half its people are
led by such man? and what would
be the hope of the nation if its rep
.resentative journals were to occupy
such stunted mental plane? In the
whole land there is not a Bryan paper
to be found that would descend to the
heaping Of personal filth upon Mr..
Mckinley. They may be bitter against
the influences which placed him and,
his in power, or they may assail
feroclously the principles he rep
resents politically, but he is person
ally treated with decency at least, and
no affinity between him and the mon
grel classes of an inferior country is
found. As far as Diax is concerned.
he is great character, to be admired,
and to whom Mexico and the Mexican
people are indebted beyond concep-
ton for what advancement and eleva
ton they do enjoy. n

SLIPPED A COG

Down in Fall River, Mass, some
thing is wrong with affairs, as above
remarked, a cog slipped, or some
other dingus is out of whack that the
Dingley bill don't remedy. The facts
seem after this fashion This manu-
featuring establishment is engaged in
making print clothes, and such, and
employs 28, 900 operatives, whose ag-
gregate earnings amount to $3.50, 600
per week. Don't fail to notice that
this amounts to So 3 per week, or
$1.07 per day And, owing to some
screw being loose in the Dingley bill,
1t becomes necessary to make a gen
eral cut of 10 per cent. in wages, so
the dispatches inform u.s. This will
give the protected American laborer
the munificent amount of SO cents
and fraction for days work. But
1t is to be hoped that as this will be
paid in "Sound Money" no bad eff
fects will follow "Sound Money"
and the Dingley bill will fix things
unless something gets out of whack,
and the above will give general
idea of how the old thing is going to
operate if it is fixed.

Heitfeld Endorsed that policy OF drop
ping silver and pinning their faith to
fiat money.
Captain Gum said that the great
body Of the populists OF Idaho would
not submit to such reputation Of sill
yer and that Heitfeld and his follow
ers would have to flock by themselves
If they attempted to insist on it, and
their flock, lie said, would be very
small one.
Congressman Gum is an ardent
silver man and declared himself very
strongly in favor OF union OF all the
silver men in Idaho under any party
name that might be found best. He
said that the preliminary steps for
such an organization had already been
taken on Wood river.
He said that he was at loss to un-
derstand the reputation Of silver by
Heitfeld and his following and that
while right on the ground he had
never been able to discover the reasons
therefor. He said that he had since
received a letter from Heitfeld in
dorsing every word Of the new policy
for Idaho populists as outlined by
the Sentinel -Pocatello Tribune.

1T is customary TO assert that WON
EN- are more apt TO love than men, ant
that they love with greater passion,
said the physician. "But, nevertheless
If the heart has anything to do with it
the greater love should be that of the
man. For woman's heart is not as big
as that in the male breast. Men have
larger hearts. The average heart of a
man weighs from ten to twelve ounces
while the average heart of a woman
weighs two ounces less. Nevertheless
in proportion to the whole weight OF
the body, the woman's heart is greater
for in the normal woman the heart
weighs 1-14o as much as all the rest OF
her, while the mans heart is but 1-1ee
of his total weight"

CHARITY-MAD.

A bill has passed the house appro-
priating $l75, 900 for the relief OF
Klondikers. 1t has also appropriated
large sum OF money to send expe-
ditions to the aid Of whalers in the
north. Idiots rushed into Klondike
after they we're told to stay out un-
less they had years supply OF pro-
vision. And now the government is
going to practically feed them through
the winter until they can strike il
rich in the spring, an open injustice
on poor and honest men who wanted
to go and we're deferred by lack OF
means, and who must now see the
opportunity for riches preserved tn
government feed fools who wouldn' t
heed advice, and the honest man who
stayed behind can reflect on his own
idIocy in not rushing ahead and eat
ing government grub. Whalers have
been going into the north seas for
the last fifty years and we're never
relieved before. They don't need
relief. They take a years supply
with them and expect to remain frozen
in all winter and are prepared for it
