BRYAN'S BLINDNESS.

Returning from Mexico, Mr.. Bryan is re-
ported to have said that there has been
no Improvement in business during the past
eighteen months" A year and a half takes
us back to July, 1886. about the time of
Bryan's nomination and when the industry
and traffic of the country were near the
lowest figure for years. except during the
few weeks following his nomination, when
many people believed that he would be
elected.
1t is not necessary to look for facts to
satisfy any unbiased man of ordinary in
telligenee that industry and business have
improved in marked degree since July,
1896. Nevertheless, it may be we'll to point
out again the facts which show that Mr..
Bryan. either from defective powers of per-
ception or from downright disregard of
facts. cannot be trusted in regard to any
statement he may make relative to business
and industry.
Let us go back to the date in July. 1896,
when there was widespread fear in BUSH
ness circles lest the nominee of the fanat-
ical Chicago convention should be elected.
First. take the bank clearings, the volume
of which as clearly indicates the amount
of traffic which is going on in the country
as does the hight of water in the channels
of rivers indicate the volume and extent
of rainfall. The bank clearings for the week
ending July IS, 1896, were S9i5 az. 1863. Dur
ing the last week the cearings were ST.
AIS 5s7.75s. That is. the volume of bank
clearings was within an inconsequentaI

fraction Of 80 per cent. greater last week.
than the second week after Mr.. Bryan's
nomination in 1896 That week was not Sc
lected as the lowest weekly clearing, be-
cause others were smaller And yet the man
who aspires to be President, and who has
no business in the world but being an as
pirant for the presidency, has the stupidity
or audacity to declare that an increase of
payments through the banks amounting TO
50 per cent is not an indication of improved
business.
There are no more reliable reports con-
corning the condition of business from
time to time than the weekly review of
Bradstreets and Dun, which are made for
business men. Fer the week which ended
July Is, 1896. Bradstreet's said
The volume of business is smaller than
anticipated, and no disposition is shown to
engage in new enterprises both city and
country merchants continuing to purchase
with more conservatism in view of the un-
settled financial outlook.
Bradstreet's of Saturday last began its
review of the weeks trade with the fol-
lowing cheerful statement:
The year opens with tone of quiet con-
business, with encouraging activity in the
iron trade, a resumption of work by many
thousands of industrial employees in the
Western glass industry. a largely reduced
volume of business failures as compared
with corresponding periods in preceding
years, and a general outlook certainly not
inferior to any previous year at this time.
Who is the better informed about the
business and industry of the country,
politician who returns from Mexico with
sombrero bedizened with gold and silver.
and who never did any business, or mer-
camille newspaper made up from the care
fully collected reports of trained men in
every considerable city in the United
States?
One need not go out of Indiana to dis
cover the absurdity of the Bryan declara-
ton. Here in Indianapolis, taken as whole,
the industrial enterprises were never en-
ploying so many men nor were they ever
doing SO much business. In view of such
irrefutable facts why does Mr.. Bryan go
about making assertions which cannot be
sustained?

SOCIAL TRIUMPHS.
w. X. Vanderbilt Leads n Cake Walk
and Mrs. Aston Scores n Victory.

NEW YORK. Jan. 1O.-W. X. Vanderbilt
cannot only lead the cotillon in gallant
fashion, as he recently demonstrated, but
he has new honors-he is champion of So
ciety cake walk. Trainor L. Park, the
owner of the steam yacht Sultana, gave
house party to a number of friends on New
Years eve and the first days of the new
year. Mr.. Vanderbilt was one of the party
and was the leader of the fun which
marked the occasion from start to finish.
1t was jolly, informal affair. Banjoists
were hired to furnish the music. There was
an innovation during the dinner 1t was
dancing after each course. To the strains
of "All Coons Look Alike To Me" the
guests arose after the soup and glided
about the dining room. ST. II went on until
the coffee was reached. The cake walk
which began about IL o'clock, was the
great event of the evening. Mr. Vanderbilt
led in magnificent style, introducing many
new steps and graceful slides that brought
applause from the other guests. Some OF
those who walked carried candles, and 9TH
ers had brooms and carpet-sweepers. Near
the end of the walk young woman Joined
the line, and before her she pushed big
baby carriage. And in the carriage reclined
young man well known to the four hum
dred. All admitted that Mr.. Vanderbilt
was the champion cake-walker.
Within the week the greatest triumph
ever known in the history of New York So
ciety has been achieved by Mrs. William
Aston. In the face of the most bitter oppo-
sition despite all cabals and intrigues, with
absolutely all the odds against her, this
marvellous woman has crowned her UNI
paralleled social career with her greatest
victOry-the reinstatement of her beloved
daughter Augusta, Mrs. Coleman Drayton
Haig in fashionable society. And not only
has she persuaded fashion to again receive

occasion that the past is to be blotted out,

Last summer Mrs Astor made the first
attempt to carry society by storm for her
daughter who had been identified with the
Alsop Borrowe-Drayton scandal. Mrs.
Drayton visited her mother at Newport,
and was seen constantly driving with Mrs.
Aston Mrs. Drayton was not received with
open arms in Newport. Mrs Aston gave a
superb luncheon, to which the bowling

not knowing that they were to meet Mrs.
Drayton. 1t is said that many were very

The Democratic plan in Louisiana for the
disfranchisement of the colored voter con-
templates an educational qualification and
an alternative property qualification. 1t is
proposed that all voters must be able to
read and write English or French, or, If
illiterate, the voter must own and pay taxes
on $2CO worth of property Such an amend
ment to the Constitution would, it is
thought exclude nearly all the objection
able negro voters and shut out the equally
Objectionable Italian and illiterate pauper
vote. On the other hand, the Acadians
would come in under the property qualitica-
ton The white vote is about 125O00 and
the negro vote 100000. Those who are push
ing the plan believe that twenty thousand
white and one hundred thousand negroes
would be disfranchised by it. There ere
Democrats who fear that such a scheme
would benefit the Republicans more than
the Democrats, as the exclusion of the ne
groes would lead to division of the white
vote, which would threaten Democratic as
tendency. If such a plan should be sug-
gested in Indiana what howl would go Up
from the Democrats,
