collnteract the evils or the present
administration, but also the evils pro-
duced in our public life by the press
and candidates of the democratic
party, therefore it is resolved that n
committee of three be appointed to
communicate to the liberty congress
statement of the purposes of this
convention"
Prof. Francis Philip Nash, of &C.
neva, NY. brought forth the greatest
enthusiasm of the session by a short
address. -Four years ago." he said,
"the platform of Bryan was moro
dangerous and the record of Mckinley
less Objectionable. This year the
candidates of both parties are NOR
ally ineligible. 1t is charged that Mr..
Bryan procured the ratification of the
treaty of peace with Spain simply for
the purpose of embarrassing the adj
ministration. If he did that the only
name that can properly be applied to
him is the name of traitor. But we
have too much belief in his high char
acter and integrity to think that
those were his motives. 1t may be
that we object to Mr.. Bryan chiefly
on account of the company he keeps.
Mr.. Mckinley, after telling the world
what would be criminal aggression,
proceeded himself to consummate
that crime. The president of the
United States has robbed this people
of their good name and their honor
able standing among the nations. Yet
we are told to re-elect Mr.. Mckinley
because he will be more conserva-
tive In his second term. We are told
he keeps his ear to the ground and
in that way learns the right policy.
An ear turned to the ground is deaf
to the voice of conscience and the
voice of God. As to the vice presi-
dental candidates. | have little to say.
OF one of them / shall say nothing.
As to the other, the melodramatlc
hero with the adhesive hat, many
now refuse to think of him or speak
of him. A few years ago he promised
much, but we who were his admirers
1 -
are now disappointed and grievea al
his actions. We owe these candidates
TO machine politics and the voices OF
the bosses and we will not have bet
ter things until the bosses and ma
chine politics are terminated"
John Jay Chapman, of New York,
heing called on for speech, said that
Mckinley would be reelected be
cause Bryan is tied up to things
which the conscience of the country
cannot support. We are powerless

compared the two and corrected his
errors. To gain a larger vocabulary
and a greater facility he reduced the
Spectator papers TO verse, and after
he had pretty well forgotten the prose
he turned them back again. He also
sometimes jumbled his notes into con-
fusion, and after a lapse OF some weeks
tried TO put the thoughts again into the
best order. This taught him the ar
Tangement of thOughts-nOw almost q.
lost art.
In Franklin's delightful description OF
this severe course he lays bare the sec
ret of how to acquire the power TO
write good English. 1t is one of the
things that we learn to DO by doing"
Then why does the modern scholastic
insist that it should be done by read
ing and writing Greek and Latin? Mr..
Fisher himself discounts his own con-
CiuSiOn by TemaTking- that to write
Latin verses is an even better and Sc
yerer drill. But Franklin had nothing
to do with Latin or Greek He put the
same amount Of concentration on Eng
lish, thus getting the severe mental
drill and at the same time becoming ac-
customed to the tools ne was later to
use with such facility. The classical
student gets the drill without the IA
cility, because when he gets through
studying he throws away his Greek and
Latin vocabulary and is stranger to
the finer uses Of his own language. He
can neither speak il fiuently nor write
it accurately. lie cannot even punct-
uate it properly The example Of
Franklin is an unansWerable criticism
upon the modern educational system
