and Reed|s smooth shaven. He Is big
boned and in process Of time may reach
the proportions of Gov. Hubbard and Gov.
Hogg, if not of Speaker Reed. He wears a
black sombrero. a Byronic collar, black
frock coat and low-cut vest, showing an
expansive shirt front with a silk watch
guard across the bosom. His shoes are
always neatly polished, and his trousers OF
the finest broadcloth. Winter and summer
he appears in the dress Of statesman.
Indeed he Is by far the neatest dressed
man in the Texas delegation.
The new leader Is sure to attract atten-
ton in more ways than one before the ad-
journment Of the Fifty-fifth Congress. An
army Of young democrats have their eyes
upon him as the repres sntative Of the
younger element of the party. He voices
their aspirations and tneir desires. He has
aspired to the leadership Of this element
in the House and has won 1t fairly and
squarely If his judgment keeps pace
with his ambition and the hopes OF his
friends he Is destined to far greater po-
litical preferment.
The people, however, will keep their eyes
on the born leader Of the minority of the
House. He does not hold his place either
by the favor of Thomas B. Reed or the
manipulation CT aspiring personal friends.
He Is a veteran Of experience in the field
of legislation. and no novice. He will WELD
the meat ak of political philosophy, and not
the crochet needle of constitutional sophis-
try. He Is no lawyer, but has been a
miner in the gulches and is now an hon
est farmer. And his name, 1t Is Richard
p. Bland. He is the Cocur de Lion of the
democratic party In both the House and
Senate, and the people will not be slow
to recognize it, despite the action of the
democratic caucus.

The Campaign of Education.

The machine undertakes the work of pro-
viding the voter with candidates and get
ting him to come to the polls, but 1t does
not undertake the previous process Of
keeping him informed about the rights and
wrongs of public questions. 1t undertakes,
il I may say so, to keep party spirit. but
not public spirit. alive. 1t does not at
tempt any regular work of public instruc-
ton. In fact, 1t discourages discussion and
presents for leadership men clever in man
agement rather than men clever in oratory.
men skillful In a certain kind of intrigue
for the party benefit rather than men skill
full in propagating ideas of any kind. To
this change in the type of the public men
venture to ascribe the frequency of what
are called "crazes" of late years; that is.
the sudden seizure of the popular mind by
enthusiasm for some eXtravagant idea, or
some scheme opposed to human experience

Sir Walter scott'. First Brief.

from tne westminster Gazette.
Sir Walter Scott had his share Of curious
experiences in the same connection shortly
after being called to the bar. His first ap-
pearance as counsel in a criminal court
was at Jedburgh Assizes in 1903. when he
successfully defended veteran poacher.
You're lucky scoundrel." Scott whis-
pered to his client when the verdict was
given. I'm Just O. your mind" returned
the latter. land I'll send you a maukin
(namely, a hare) the morn. man." Lock-
hart, who narrates the incident, omits to
add whether the 'maukin" duly reached
Scott but no doubt 1t did.
On another occasion Scott was less sue
cessful in his defense of a housebreaker,
but the culprit. grateful for his counseIs
exertions gave him, in lieu of the orthodox
fee. which he was unable to pay. this piece
Of advice to the value Of which he, the
housebreaker. could professionally attest:
First. never to have a large watchdog out
Of doors. but to keep e little yelping ter
rier within: and secondly, to put no trust
in nice. clever. gimcrack locks. but to pin
his faith to q huge old heavy one with a
rusty key. Scott long remembered this in
cident. and thirty years later. at a judges
dinner at Jedburgh, he recalled 1t in this
impromptu rhyme:
Yelping terrier, rusty key.
