ing the middle of the century. In Eng
land and America at one time his name
was a household word. but to-day to
the great ma jority of readers he is alb
solutely unknown. His chief claim
upon fame rests upon the wonderfully
vigorous and virile English prose he
wrote, prose which ranks with the best
England or America has ever produced.
Borrow personally is one of the most
interesting characters in the his
tory of literature. There was
hardly a language in the world
of which he had not a fluent
command. Eccentricities stuck out all
over him and his greatest rleas-
ure was found in the society of
Gypsies. prize fighters and horse deal
ers. He could drink pint of rum at
gulp, like so much water, and prided
himself upon his ability as a pugilst.
And to round out his list of versatile
ties he was the trusted agent and trans
lator of the Bible society.
Study of Borrow and his work is evil
IDENTIFY reviving and the rediscovery of
this master of English prose by critics
and litterateurs will undoubtedly lead
to a revival of popular interest.

yer would be omitted. The fact is that
this and similar exhibitions of the sin
gle standard advocates appear more
like the confession of fear. Had they
a sound cause, one which could be but
tressed by solid argument, there would
be no necessity for such flood of silly
lies.
Bryan's devotion to silver as poiiti-
cal issue is as undeniable as the law of
gravity and to question it is to write
oneself an idiot or worse. The goldbug
scribblers must indeed be hard pushed
for arguments when forced to be con-
tent with such windy fabrications and
frothy imaginings.

Another Mares Nest.

~ HE New York Times and other
eastern newspapers of the gold
bug cult are nervously exer-
cised concerning William j. Bryan and
his political future. Every argument
in the armory of sophistry is drawn
upon to discredit his party strength
and popularity. So eager are they to
seize and exaggerate every lie that finds
a publisher that they soon tangle them
selves in network of glazing inconsis-
tences.
The most recent Illumination is that
in which Bryan is charged with in
sincerity to the silver cause. This start
ling discovery, announced with a sug-
gestion of Pecksniffan tears, is enough
to make a horse laugh. Not so Icing
ago as to escape memory. any enemy of

crat was a candidate for coddling.
Bryan was termed the silver fanatic.

has sounded a warning 1t has dis
covered, so it asserts, two perils which
have not been recognized by the astute
politicians who boss the party's coun-
ellis.
1t has found. as result Of in
vestigations. that there has been an
enormous detection of the German vote
which previously has been practically
great offense at the unwise and, they
think, unjust criticism of Germany to
which so many of the administration
newspapers gave vent during the Span
ish war. Furthermore, the Independent
discovers that the imperial policy IS un-
palatable to the Germans, for they
know what it means, having had
and are not anxious for repetition of
the dose.
/ If the Independent is correct III its
discovery, and facts from various
sources indicate that is, republican SUI
premacy in many of the middle and
central states is seriously threatened
with a loss which cannot be made up
from any other quarter.
But there is another weak link in the
republican chain, according to the In
dependent. The negro vote, which
since the war has been solidly republi-
can. is breaking away from it's tradi-
tions of almost forty years. Men such
as Professor Booker Washington
trusted leaders of the race, are advis-
ing them to break away from the re-
publicans and ally themselves with the
better element" among the whites.
Their adhesion to the party Of Lincoln
has been weakening year by year. 1t
has done them no good, and the recog
milton given them by their white party
associates has amounted to practically
nothing after the voting was over. The
negroes have discovered that the party
is absolutely impotent in protecting
the black race against such outrages
as the murder of Postmaster Barker
and 1t has caused a reaction.
But these two big defections pointed
out by the Independent are not the
only losses the republican party, as rep
resented by Mckinley and the admins
tration, will suffer in the next election.
There Is a large body of intelligent re-
publicans who cannot swallow the i'm
perialistic pill fixed up by Mckinley,
Hanna. ct ais. Under the leadership of
such men as Senator Hoar, Boutwell,,
Edmunds, Reed and a host of others,
their determination will make itself felt

enough upon which to base its fears Of

Dewey's Testimony.

II DMIRAL DEWEY has the fac
! ulty of getting directly to the
I point of a matter, whether he is
directing a fleet from the bridge of a
warship or talking to a reporter. In a
recent interview with a London news
paper man he is credited with saying
that the Filipinos We're worthy of self
government. and that they should be
granted autonomy at once. Whether
or not he has been correctly quoted. the
opinion is worthy of the hero of Manila
Bay and harmonizes with the language
of his dispatches in the early days of
the war. Annexation is left, according
to the interviewer, as an open question,
to be discussed after the Filipinos have
shown what they can do for themselves.

IT is a remarkably dull day when
New York cannot find time to
present a municipal scandal or
two for the edification of the
country. The last sensation to
be sprung was the attempt to
squeeze the city for $200, 900, 600 n the
Ramapo Water company deal, and so
cleverly were the plans laid that the
scheme was nearly railroaded through
to a successful conclusion. Plat, Lau-
terbach and others of the same kidney
are said to be interested in the hold

daubed very black with the scandal
The slump of the Mazet investigation

that of Boss Plat, is working in his
behalf. waiting until the affair blows
