Personal AND OTHERWISE.

The fund for the perpetuation OF the
Dewey arch is said to be growing at rate
to satisfy the demands OF its most earnest
supporters.
1t is said a man In Atlanta, Ga, has sent
to Admiral Dewey an autograph letter from
Admiral Farragut in which he wrote THAT
young Dewey is a very promising chap"
1t is said In Washington that Admiral
Dewey5s house is located in SO promising a
part of that city's real estate that three
years hence 1t would be impossible to buy
it for three times the amount recently paid
for it.
The extent to which the inalienable right
OF expectorating is being strangled in this
glorious land is shown in the arrest of
Senator Carter for dumping cargo Of
tobacco on the immaculate walks of Helena.
Mont. What punishment was handed the
senator is not stated, nor is 1t important.
The lesson 1t emphasizes is that the liberty

BOER AND BRITON.

| st. Louis Globe-Democrat Lord Wolseley
| says the Beers are the most ignorant people
he ever met. 1t is evident that they are
so untutored in military science that they
| gobble whole regiments sent to stampede
| them.
San Francisco Call: Say all that may be
said about the sympathy Of our people for
England in this war to exterminate two re-
publcs, and the British press assumes that
1t is universal, seven out OF ten Ameri-
cans are for the Beers. In this we do not
include Irish Americans, who have a Pc
culiar grievance of their own.
Springfield (Mass) Republican: The Eng
lish are being deceived America has not
suddenly been transformed into great hot
bed of Anglomaniacs. The alleged pro-
British feeling in the Boer war is based to
considerable extent upon pure selfshness
among American imperialists, who see the
necessity of keeping British friendship IL
they are to do some successful map paint
ing for Uncle Samuel in the Orient.
Philadelphia North American: Were
Americans not to side with the Beers they
would be false to the principles and tradi-
tions which are at the heart OF our national
life. Americans believe that men have
right to govern themselves, and always they
have been warmly sympathetic with any
people engaged in fighting for independence.
1t is monarchy against republic in South
Africa; it is the strong against the weak
and Americans are with the weak and
against monarchy in such a struggle.
Boston Globe: In ancient times, when
war was only another name for plunder, the
investment OF Kimberley would have been
looked upon as the biggest thing on earth.
In that city is said to be stored away
some S1O0,000,000 in diamonds. 1t Is the
diamond output, together with the gold pro-
duced In South Africa, that is the cause OF
the pending bloody struggle. Their dis
covery was purely accidental. stranger
"trekking" through the country stopped at
a farmers house, and seeing the children
playing with dazzling pebbles whose nature
the poor Dutchman did not understand, sug-
gested taking them to the nearest city for
inspection. The result was a fortune for
life. Well would t have been for Boer
independence had the Boers then and there
forbidden further prospecting for diamonds
by foreigners. They did not. and the re-
suit finds them in their present trouble.

That Miss Lilly Gillette Of Chicago should
have hugged, kissed and caressed the ele-
phant in Central park, New York, is taken
there as evidence OF her insanity. Not at all.
Miss Gillette is an enthusiastic republican.
Ex-Congressman Jerry simpson. who has
taken again to farming and stockraisng
sold $50 head OF cattle the other day. THAT
he remarked, as he pocketed the cash,
that outdoes life In Washington, l think

Tho chairman OF tho state democratic
committee OF Maryland hastens to apologies
and to assure the country that the demo-
cratic victory in his state docs not mean
anything nationally, so far as free coinage
OF silver Is concerned.
The pension agency at Knoxville Tenn,
has upon its rolls the name OF the widow OF
one soldier OF the revolution, and while there
are no names OF soldiers who served in the
war OF 1912. there are the names OF the
widows Of more than 400 of them,
Mrs. Vanderbilt, widow of the late Cor
nolius Vanderbilt, was so pleased with the
services of the New York police at the flu
neral of her husband that she has sent a
check for s., 900 to Chief of Police Devery to
be turned into the police pension fund.
1t is well-known fact that New Workers
come to Philadelphia when they want a
long and undisturbed sleep, but 1t appears
they do not come often enough. Here. for
instance, is ]. Wilson Kelcey OF Brooklyn
borough, who went to sleep while pedaling
his bicycle and ran into a heavy wagon
which threw him and bumped his head on

COLD COMFORT FOR BRYANITEs.

Philadelphia Record (dem.): The demo-
Gratis saved Maryland by making their cam
paign on state issues with sound money
candidates. They saved Nebraska by open
fusion with the populists and the remark
able personal campaigning of Mr.. Bryan.
Everywhere else the battle went against
them
New York World (dem): AS the matter
stands the democrats do not control a single
one of the old free states, while they have
lest three states from the once "solid
south" Mr.. Bryan has carried his own
state, but Nebraska is hardly pivotal
state" This personal victory undoubtedly
assures his nomination.
st. Paul Pioneer Press: Mr.. Bryan finds
great comfort in the results of the cleo
tions last Tuesday. He develops an amaz-
ing ingenuity in squeezing sunbeams out OF
cucumbers BY comparing the republican
pluralites with those of the presidential
election he figures out great gains for the
democratic party. This is an old and very
shallow trick OF the political arithmeticians
of the democratic party.
Louisville Courier Journal 1t is ad
mitted everywhere that the election OF
popuist by the fusionists of Nebraska was
a personal triumph for Mr.. Bryan. In no
state, however dld the democrats make any
gains Tuesday, or even hold their own, ex-
cept In Maryland, which was the only
state whose democrats refused to endorse
the Chicago platform. 1t is not worth while
to argue with the man who can not see
the force of this without argument.
Atlanta Constitution (dem.) Looking over
the whole field in which the opposing forces
of the two parties met last Tuesday, we can
SEQ much calculated to brighten the pros
poets of the democracy. II Is plain to be
seen that the general tendency and drift OF
popular approval is toward the democratic
party. This is very clear in the Ohio cleo
ton. Here is the presidents own state, the
state in which Mark Hanna moves and has
his being. Notwithstanding this the republi-
can majority has been cut down in all dlrec-
tions
New York Times (dem): Twenty-siX Of
the states OF the union, representing by far
the greater portion OF the population, wealth,
industries and manufactures, and nearly
two-t thirds OF the electoral votes, have at
their latest elections recorded themselves as
republican states. Their people are not for
Bryan; they are against him. The country
Is against him, because his doctrines are
fatal TO its prosperity and progress. Yet the
political paranoiacs who have huddled about
him since 1895 are resolved to run him
again because he carried Nebraskal
Omaha daily bee., 1899-11-14
CANNOT BE SHAKEN OFF.

The Boston Transcript suggests that
"if the democrats still have among their
leaders men of sense and wisdom now
is a good time for them to consult to-
gether to devise some means for shak-
ing Bryan, the old man of the sea OF
troubles, off the shoulders OF the
party" There are no such leaders, for
if there were Bryan would not occupy
the position he does as the dictator of
the party. IGok over the list of promi-
nent democrats and there is not one
who has the qualifications necessary to
rescue the party from the low condi-
tions into which 1t has fallen and re-
store it to it's former place as the rep.

and other great eXponents of democ-

believe in those principles and pro-
foundly deplore the departure from
them of large majority of their party,
but they have not the qualities for
leadership. They are lacking in force
and aggressiveness and perhaps also In
the magnetism that attracts followers.
Democrats like Whitney and Hill of
New York, Pattison of Pennsylvania
and German of Maryland are able, but
they would exert no influence with the
southern and western democrats who
are thoroughly infected with what SEN

ease of Bryanism. AS the representa-
tives and eXponents of o!d-time demo
cratic principles and policies these men
could effect nothing with the infatn'
ated followers of the popocratic leader
and realizing this they do not attempt
anything. They simply continue, as op-
portunity offers, to manifest their de-
votion to the principles which distin-
guished the democratic party in the
past, before it became in0culated with
populsm and the advocate of II debased
currency and public and private repu-

Hence Colonel Bryan will continue TO
ride upon the shoulders of the party at
least until 1t has experienced another
national defeat, when some other
leader may come forward to restore IL
TO its former place. In the meantime
the best service that true democrats
can do in the interest of the principles
