BRYAN during the late campaign
 for President, was something more
 than a champion of free silver.
 Over and above all he stood as the ineorruptable and fearless friend of
 the poor and distressed. He was for
 the masses IS against the classes,
 and though he failed to reach the
 high position he sought, the whole
 country was, by reason of his re-
 markable canvass, aroused to the dangers which threatened the hap piness and prosperity of the Repub- lie through the entrenchment in
 power of insolent, perfdious and shamelessly unpatrlotic corporate and individual wealth. Bryans wird, portraiture of the country's true condition, struck us like call to arms, The true patriots of the country rallied to the support of their leader, hoping to save the country from destruction. They came iii armies of the worthiest class of all--the plain, uneorrupted peo- pie. They came undismayed, crying thirstily for victory. The enemy took alarm, and fought bitterly, desperately. They won. Bryan and the people were vanquished for the time. But the battle had been rich in results. Bryanism, as they call it, had not proved failure The peo- pie had learned much. The enemies of the people had learned no less. They had learned that the people had determined in the end to be masters. This was one of the re suits of Bryanism, and daily we see evidence of this result working in practical affairs. It is now easy to defeat Huntingdon. Before we knew Bryanism is was difficult. TtI is now possible to secure legislation against the combinations of the i money power, while before the ad- | vent of Mir. Bryan we felt as if we were its hopeless captives. Bryan ism has been, and is yet, a great success.

The New Rector of Trinity.

.A0G iNGNR AAGCiOE O1 AAAhAOJs
 Rev. G. Gordon Smeade, the new rector at Trinity church, preached two impressive sermons yesterday morning and evening, respectively. Tine congregations were good, and while composed largely of parishion: CTS, many of other denominations were present. The music, specially arranged and rendered for the oec a. sion under the direction of Prof. Luce, of the Mozart Conservatory of Music, was admired by everyone.
 Since the Rev. Smeade is almost q stranger in our midst, the GRAPHIC, to introduce him further to it's read CTS, clips the following from the Pulaski (Va) News-Review. a paper from which this reporter erstwhile didst shoot his youthful arrows: The News-Review says:
 Rev G. Gordon Smeade, who has been rector of MacgiH Memorial Episcopal Church in this city for about ten years, left for his new parish in Pine Bluff. Ark, on Wednes- day morning.
 During the many years of minis terial service in our midst, Mir. Smeade has made many and lasting friends, who regret his departure and wish him abundant success in his new and larger field of Christian service. Mr. Smeade is a strong and very acceptable preacher, genial in manner, and while a typical church. man, ill spirit is broad in his sympa- thies and has often while among us lent loyal cooperation in united efforts with all the churches of our city

An Etching of a Busy Town.

'.Bay-bee, bay beef" called the grimy faced urehin coaxingly.
 The baby with the white coat and the kid gloves looked sidewise toward the curb. Its mother was one of the crowd in front of the store window and look ing at perfect love of bonnet.
 "Baybee, baybee?" came the invita- tion again.
 Totteringly the baby approached the curb and smiled trustfully up at the dingy face The urohin dropped down on his ragged knees, laid the papers he was selling on the pavement and patted the little kid glove with his red, dirty little hand, Pretty bay.heep' he said.
 Just then the mother turned, ran across the pavement and dragged the baby back. How dare you touch her. you dirty little good for nothing!" she said.
 The urchin grasped his bundle of pa- -pers and rose, digging his toe into the dirt of the gutter shamefaeedly.
 'Aw-g'wan'' he said sultenly.- New York Press.

 GURAL.

The inaugural address of Gov. Jones is creditable production. It's literary style is good, it's spirit patriotic, and its subject-matter relevant and helpful to those to whom it is addressed. After careful perusal of the paper we make the following summary:
 The Governor suggests that the requirement. of the election law that ballots be numbered, destroys the secrecy of the b ot and should be abolished, and that law should be passed punishing any employer who uses threats or coercion to in- duence the votes of employees. He also contends that only one minori- ty party should beallowed represen- tation on election boards, and that to bo the one in State and counties, respectively, having the largest number Of adherents. He recom- mends, further, that the law be amended in manner requiring that

TIE Agkdnsas Democrat says that it "believes that railroad built by convict labor will do more to solve the railroad problem in Arkansas than all the commissions that could be created from now until dooms- day" Every little school girl in the State believes likewise, but what is unfortunate about the faith of the Democrat, and the little school girls combined, is that we havn't yet built the railroads with our conVicts. Undoubtedly we can't give the rail- roads the scare head" until our own roads are completed, whereas
 we can start in at once with a com commission and let the Goulds and their kindred spirits down a few buttons before the right-of- way has been condemned for the great convict built railroad. How ever, we are in favor of the commis- sion, with or without the proposed State roads, since we know that corporations that acknowledge the late Jay Gould as their patron saint and are operated under traditions flowing from that arch juggler will bear watching forever and 0 day. Moreover, we strongly suspect that the Democrats hostility to a railway has It's source in the Gazette s espousal of that proposition. If it has no better reason for it's course, in this matter, than the limping plaint, II hate whatever you love, !" it would be commendable to shrive itself duly by prayer and penanee.
