Public Speaking.

Congressman r. w. Davis gave a sti-
ring political address in the town hall at
Fort Pierce Tuesday night, the building
being crowded to overflOwing. Our worthy
congressman drew a striking contrast be-
tween the two great presidential candid
ates of today, citing the consistency, the
faithfulness, the unerring decisions of Mr..
Bryan in his public and political life to
the tlimsy and truculent policies pursued
by the present incumbent to the trusts
and corporations. Mr.. Davis arraigned
the Republican party for their dilly daily
ing policy in Cuba, their slow action in
regard to the people in Porto Rico, their
abrOgatiOn of the Monroe doctrine, the
introduction of Imperialism in this con-
stitutlOnal government characteristic of a
monarchy, their keeping a large standing
army in the Philippines, and their prob
able grab for a slice in China, and the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of territory far distant
from this country. His address was short.
but he was greeted with rounds of ap-
plause.

MAURICE DE FLEURY, an erudite
Frenchman, says that the term,
Glove sick" is not an empty phrase.
According to him, love is a malady
of the mind, to be classed among
the most distressful of diseases.
What are these foreign scientists
going to leave us in life that is
sane? Nordou says genius is in
sanity, Lombroso says crime is in
sanity, and now this other man
comes along and says the grand
passion of the heart is insanity!
Must men be as unimaginative and
rs Unconditional as a clam to be
classed as normal?
The Florida star., 1900-08-10

MR. BRYAN has concluded the
writing of his speech of acceptance,
and it deals almost entirely with
the subject of Imperialism, which
the Kansas City platform says is
the paramount issue. This must
be very discouraging to those Re-
publican politicians any news
papers that have been SO industri-
ously at work trying to stir up a
sixteen-to-One scare. The New York
Mail and Express, normally very
intelligent paper, is one of the
organs affecting to be badly fright
ened by the free silver bugaboo
But between the lines it is easy
enough to see that the paper it.
self does not believe all of the
twaddle that it is printing along
that line.

AT the end of 1894 there were
five golf clubs in the United States.
At the beginning of the present
year, according to an "official" golf
guide, there were nearly 1000 reg
ularly organized clubs with a mem
bership of over 100000 players.
The money expended on the game
runs up into the millions of dollars.

lT is interesting To note occasion
ally what foreigners think of our
public men. OF Mr. Bryan the
London Speaker says: "Constantly
before the American public for
years, scanned with close scrutiny,
he has given the impression of sim
cerity and humanity. The Ameri-
can people, cursed with the sinister
spectacle of whole states under the
rule of corrupt and cynical bosses,
of Croker, Platt, Quay, Addicks, of
men rich with the spoilS of pro
tected' syndicates and trusts, have
seen in Mr.. Bryan a clean handed
man entirely removed from all this
dirty money making and wire
pulling. His life is simple, his
tastes are ideal, his character is
above reproach, his eloquence is
powerful, his industry untiring."
