Why doesn't Bryan dramatize the
.'First Battlen and star in it.
Possibly Col. Bryan ate of few of
his favorite predictions as a side
dish with his turkey.

All the European Governments and
Sarah Bernhart are coming TO Ameri-
ca for money nowadays.
The sublime cheek of the Porte
show conclusively from what quality
the Sultan obtained his character for
sublimity.

Just imagine Bryan trying to handle
the Philippine and Chinese questions
and the absurdity of his candidacy
will be evident.
Nearly all of the impecunious Euro
pean mobiles must have been married
off now, SO that henceforward there
will be some chance for American
youths.
/ !
1t will be alright if Dom Paul accepts
the cheers that he receives in much the
same as consolation prize and does
not base extravagant hopes on them.
Chicago has held good roads con-
gress but it is repoted to have been a
good deal of flzzle, and the papers
there are asking whether it was apathy
or despair that made it SO.
Possibly the Duke of Manchester did
marry for love. But he evidently had
been studying the maxim that rich
girls are just as lovable as poor ones
and are even more desirable.

Mr.. Bryan realizes that his success
full rival made no speeches and has
ceased to talk. But it is too late, and
anyhow, Bryan would never have
been heard of if it had not been for his
voice.
How long is the south going to stand
it? that is the question. By "it," we
mean having its platforms written by
western states that do not support it
and in detrimetical opposition to every
policy that the south wishes to support.
Chicago is claiming that she will be
the centre of the United States some
time liz the future. In fact as the pres
ent centre is bat one hundred miles off,
some enthusiasts are already proposing
to annex it, and finish the matter right
now.
The Democrats are making good
deal of the fact that Governor Roose-
yelt will not remove mayor VanWyck.
They forget that the mayor has escap-
ed only by lack of legal proof Moral
proof there is plenty but it will not suf-
fee in court of law.
/
Trade unionism has been crushed in
the Carolinas for the time being,
but is certain to rise again and eventu-
ally to win. When it does so, the
south will lose part of its advantage
ofcheap labor and for this, it is to be
expected, the manufacturers will fight
bitterly. But the end is inevitable.
While the exact items that are to be
cut off have not yet been announced, it
is practically certain that the stamp
taxes on checks, kilograms, express re-
ceipts and patent medicines will be
amongst them, the revenue that these
items yield being out of all proportion
to their troublesomeness.

The British coal mines have become
SO deep that the cost of mining is so
great that they cannot compete with
American mines even when the cost of
transportation is taken into account.
The only remedy seems to be the in
vention and adoption of machinery
that will enable coal to be mined at
great depths as easily as nearer the
surface.

generating the occupant of the chair

hall came loud Kisses. Mr.. Talbert
rapidly cooled down after he had
been recognized and explained in
brief speech that the presence of
quorum had completely indicated
his position. He had no feeling
against the men who served on the
federal side in the civil war, but he
was opposed to loose, reckless, nm
constitutional methods. He suggest
ed that the house set aside day each
