MISS GOULD's EXAMPLE.

Fire Commissioner Scannell, of New

letter in which he informs her that in
view of the services rendered by her on
the occasion of the Windsor Hotel fire.
he intends to present her with a gold
badge which will entitie her TO enter the
fire lines at any fire that may occur in
Greater New York.
We are glad TO see new honors con-
ferred upon Miss Could. She is a noble
young woman and her kindly acts towards
the soldiers during the late war have
made her a national heroine. We do not
overlook the fact that many other women
made greater sacrifices than Miss Gould
made. We know that she simply gave OF

ample to the rich men and women OF this

HOW Is THIS FOR INToLERANCE?

Mr.. Belmont has characterized Mr..
Bryan's reference TO him as an ally of the
Republicans as offensive II such refer
enoe is resented by Mr. Belmont how
nlout every other conscientious Democrat
who claims the right TO conform his
conduct to his convictions and TO refuse
20 follow the lead Of men who chance TO
be IN control OF his party and who seek
20 use their accidental power 10 coerce
him into subscribing TO dogmas that give
the lie 10 all of his past life and are
odlous and hateful to him? Mr.. Bryan
words deserve TO be quoted at this point.
lie says TO Mr.. Belmont:
Il believe I'm harmonizng personal diff
serences. but differences in principles can
+ not be harmonized. and In my judgment
no party advantage is TO be derived from
political communion between jefferson
Democrats who stand upon the Chicago
platform and the Republicans allies who
masquerade as Democrats between cam
paigns in order TO give more potency to
their betrayal Of their Democratic prin-
ciples on election day.
Now we ask any candid man II there
IS 10 be found in an history anything
more redolent Of ifolerance, proscrip-
ton and &utocracy than this This same
spirit Of intolerance rendered possible
the burning OF witches two hundred years
ago. il was such spirit of intolerance
that made the spanish priests crush the
bones Of legs and arms and cut out
mems tongues with the appliances of the
inouisition. five hundred years ago. The
spirit OF such intolerance would deluge
the land with blood in civil war rather
than that the doemas born Of it should
not be accepted by all men.
The Times. WITH its conviction
that a double standard of value
Is impossible. and that the very life OF
social organizations requires that our
courts shall be free 10 compel men to re-
spect their orders. believes that it stands
exactly where Thomas Jefferson expected
Democrats TO stand and where Thomas
Jefferson would stand If be were amongst
US to-day. And yet this young man VINO
has ever had leaning towards Populisn'
IS so inconsiderate OF the honest con-
ylctions OF others as to claim that ne
alone divines where Jefferson would have
stood upon these questions. and that the
Times and other conscientious ana MEL
llgent Democrats are insincere when they
shink they perceive the true interpreta-
ton Of Jenerson's teachings.
But the serious question for men who
IRE Democrats upon principle is, are they
going to allow Organism TO be crammed
down their throats again? Are they GO
ing to allow themselves to he again drag
ged into supporting the Chicago platform
which they look on as a very Pandora's
box OF evil. merely because men who are
not true Democrats may chance to be In
control Of the organization Of the Demo-
cratic party?
We do not believe Il and We arc glad
therefore. that AIR. Bryan has been given
this notable opportunity 70 show his real
hand and that he has awaited himself Of
hts opportunity 20 such entire advantage.
