BailifT Kendig is recognized as something
OF wit. The first prisoner to be objected
to the laconic thrusts Of the bai1.f in the
police court the other day was William
Ross, says the Washington Times. The
charge against him was yagY. ncy, and as
he was arraIgned Kendig SAL, sotto voce:

then added, that Is a trus saying" Much
to the surprise and chagrrt of hendig, Ross
replied without the faint It semblance of a
smile:
"Why do you not que te that aphorism cor

petrified formation endowed with a rotary

Ross answered not guilty, but the evil
dence was against him. Policeman Gordon
declared that he found Ross begging at the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad station Ross
claimed that the only begging he did was
TO beg the policeman to release him. Judge
Mills sent Ross to the workhouse for 60 days
in default Of bonds in the sum Of $50.

WHERE HARM COULD BE DONE.
Free Trade and Free silver Hidden
Away Under Anti-ImperiaI-
Ism Howl.

In his speech accepting the populist
nomination for president Bryan tried
to justify the democracy's successive
changes Of paramount" base from
free trade to free silver and from free
silver to free laughter-called "anti-
imperialism''-on the ground that sys-
TENS of taxation can be changed with
less difficulty than financial systems,
and financial systems can be altered
with less danger and less disturbance
to the country, than the vital doctrines
upon which free government rests.
In such a suggestion OF the COM
parative ease with which both free
trade and free silver can be accom-
plished through a democratic victory,
Bryan admits something dangerously
suggestive of truth. He practically
states that the democracy need not
fight especially just now for either
free trade or free silver, because If
victory be won for "anti-imperialism"
both free trade and free silver would
be easy incidentals to such victory. As
matter of fact if Bryan could be able
by his election to the presidency to
accomplish his neutrality-suspicious.
plank by alternating our territory, he
could accomplish just as easily both
free trade and free silver. If a repub-
lican senate woulds be barrier to free
trade and free silver it would also be
barrier TO his schemes for uneon-
stitutionally abandoning the territory
belonging to the United. States. Ii
Bryan tried to get the senate to rat
fly treaty with Aguinaldo surrender
ing American rights and the rights OF
our Filipino allies, and also new
treaty with Spain absolving us from
our sponsibilities under the old
treaty, it would take two-thirds vote
of the senate each time. Bryan worked
hard to get the necessary two-thirds
vote for the treaty with Spain by
which the United States came into
possession of the territory he now
wants given away, and he was sue

work he would have to strive a great
deal harder. To get free trade bill,
or free silver bill through, he has,
however, only to get majority OF
votes in the house of representatives.
and the senate. If the democratic
party can get the control of both
branches of congress, that would en-
able it to fully carry out Bryan's
paramount" anti-American policy in
the Philippines, it would also have the
power to still more easily carry into
effect the unparamount free trade and
free silver features of Bryan's pro-
