DEAD TO SHAME.

Moral degenerates are those who
have TO sense of shame no idea Of
decency, no regard for proprfety, no
respect for themselves, no regard for
their past, no honest purpose for the
future. This describes the condition
of a morning contemporary. In evil
dence of its mental coma and moral
paresis it adapted from the composite
malice of the goldbug press of New
York and Boston the following:
It viii be hard to decide when the
Kansas City convention meets what to
call the party. Mr.. Bryan WAS a POpuiiSt
six years ago; he called himself a Demo-
crat four years ago, but lately he has
been more Populist than Democrat. 1t
the Populists hold their convention and
nominate him and later the silver Repub-
l1cans nominate him, and if then the
Democrats honor him in the same way in
their convention, what will be the cam
paign title of his party? VIII ii be DEM
ocrauc or PoDulo-Democratic or Silvero-
-Populo-Demo party? Things
have look as though the POpulists lave
the best of the situation, and as though
they would have right to protest against
Mr. Bryan being held as an exclusive
Democratic candidate.
Those are alm0at the identical words
OF the vicious New York Press in 1895
when Bryan was nominated by the
Democratic. Populist and silver Re
publican national conventions.
In reply the Tribune said that "the
assinine babbling of the educated idiot
who fills the filthy columns of the sub
sidized Press with blackguardism will
bring upon his own head the contempt
he tries to heap on the head of Mr.
Bryan"
And now the Tribune is resorting to
the sappe tactics. i is lost to honor
and dead to shame.

Nine short stories, previously published
in the magazines. make up the volume of
Southern Hearts" AS indicated by the
title the background of the stories is the
southern country, in Virginia for the
most part. The women and the young

more space to these sympathetic char
acteriZatiOns of the negro and less to the
rather commonplace love episodes.
