hcartsicll he came back to Eastwood.

She determined L" alter her tactics. and
TO cheer. not tn dcpress him: she would
rally him with kind words. then in time
he would be strongcr and able to bear it.
She did so. and the first faint CLEAN of
light that crossed his face was when she
suggested that, after all. it WAS possible
Lcnorc might return of her w free will.

President McKinley's eulogies of the
flag to-day are not q whit lacking in
eloquent sublimity in comparison with
the patriotic utterances of the earlier
orators as they rushed to the defense
Of Old Glory in hours of danger. The
patriotically inspired %schoolboy need
not so back to any musty volume in Or
der to find examples of eloquence that
will stir the blood of the listeners at
the meeting of the school literary So
ciety. Any daily paper printing reports
Of President McKinlcy's tour of the
Northwest has contained several of
these little oratorical gems every day.
They have flowed from the lips of the
President with such evident inspira-
ton as to leave no question as to the
deep feeling back of the words. Al
though it has not been customary to
include VIM. Mckinley among the
great orators of the present, it would
appear that the frequency and beauty
of the sentiments with which the Pres
ident has responded to every opportu-
nifty to express his love for and conf
dence in the flag have entitled him to
q position as the leading exponent of
patriotic %eloquence during this rcdivi-
vus Of latter day patriotism. What is
more inspiring than to listen to the
words of the President at Dubuque!
This is Il year of sublime patriotism.

Easily Settled.
The century was closing fast
When through this great, broad land
there passed
A man who bore along the line
A great big lettered canvas sign
Men Wanted"
He passed n vacant soup house door
And still the sign he proudly bore.
And as he marched he did stampede
Most every hobo who could read:
Men Wanted"
The farmers stacking up their shocks,
The shipping men out on the docks,
The railroads all, the factories,
AL echoed it upon the breeze:
Men Wanted"
An orator from out the Platte
Was babbling through his tattered hat,
When swift the big sign passed him by
And loud rang out that same old cry:
Men Wanted"
"Who sends this messenger about
Re-echoing that horrid shout?"
The orator indignant cried.
The messenger but this replied:
Men Wanted"
who's made a place for all these men1'
The speaker asked and looked again.

"All DER the nation l have cried:

Then said the speaker from the Platte:

IVyNV Hi n EthO Isls.nts
81 ssure you that it is the money
that is in the Office and not the honor
that attracts me-"
These words. which occur in II letter
written by William j. Bryan to j.
Sterling Morton Jan. II, 1889. are Il
decidedly unpleasant revelation of the
motives that induced the writer to go
into politics. OF late years MI. Bryan
has appeared to he an exceedingly
Jealous advocate of principles. He
has been given credit for an earnest
ness and sincerity that raised him
high above such sordid politicians as
his new-found friend, Richard Croker.
But here we find him at the very out
set of his career making a frank dec
laration of n low ambition that is posi-
lively appalling from it's very ingcnu-
BUSINESS. The most hardened political
hack could not have been less sensible
to the moral aspects of the ease than
was this young man, from whom IL no.
bier sentiment might surely have been
expected. lie had already been n dele
gate to Il Nebraska State convention
and had made some impression upon
it through his %eloGucnce. lie was soon
to appear rs 81 Congressional candi-
date, and in the campaign that fol-
lowed he preferred to be an exponent
of ideas, not n seeker after money.
But that was for the c%diiication of
the public, whose good opinion he de-
sired. lie knew that such q confess
sion as he made to Mi. Morton would
be death to his hopes if it were made
OH the stump, and when an exposure
was threatened he took refuge in IL
pllatic denials. BY so doing. however.
he prepared the way for the wrctchcd
predicament in which he now finds
himself. The letter and the affidavit
concerning the dcniais. which are pub
lished together. make it appear that
he is both a greedy political adven-
turer and n stranger to veracity when
the truth seems to conflict With his
selfish interests.
1t is not to be regretted that the dis
closure has been made. but it is mat
ter for deep regret that Mr.. Bryan's
reputation for veracity is not deserved.
However much people may have diff
fered from him with regard to the prin-
ciples which lie has championed. it has
been n pleasure to believe that he was
thoroughly honest and enthusiastically
devoted to those principles. Chicago
