Mr.. Bryan said at GAINESVILLE, o., yes
terday that "The party stands where it
did in 1896 on the money question, but
it believes that the form OF government
is more important than the kind of

alre family who has ever dabbled in pol
itics and he evidently enjoys the busi-
ness. lie is only % years old but has al
ready an itching to represent the swell
district of New York City in Congress.
A dispatch from Saratoga says: "He did
many strange things for a Vanderbilt to
do, saw and talked with many strange
persons, with whom he had never been
brought in contact before, mingled in
democratic fashion with old and astute
Republican warriors, and ventured a few
discrete condolences to the younger and
less seasoned.

Self Respect,

Perhaps the greatest virtue that
Young man can acquire is that of self-re-
spect, for it is really thesum ofall virtues,
writes the self-respecting editor of the
Punxy Spirit. To thoroughly respect
yourselfyou must keep yourself aboye.
self-reproach. Your conduct must be
clean, and your soul without faint. To
do this you must improve all your oppor-
tunities for self-culture. Ignorant and
gross persons may be full of self-coucet
because they have no correct notion of
the amount of refinement, education and
gentility that man should possess IN
order TO be accounted a gentleman. A
selt-respecting youth must, above all
things, be careful of his company, for by
associating with people with low ideals
he gradually acquires habits of thought
that are degrading, and his nature be-
comes corrupt by impreceptible degrees.
A man is generally accepted at the value
he places upon himself. He is supposed
to know his capabilities and limitation,
and if he is known to possess good sense
and fair education the public will give
him credit for what he assumes.

JEFFERSON wrote 10 his successor,
Madison, urging the acquisition of the
island of Cuba and in the same letter
made use of words that put him without

preted by Bryan, for he wrote, 81 am
persuaded no constitution was ever so
well calculated as ours for extensive en-
pire and self-government." He never
doubted for a moment the constitutional
power Of the government to acquire Ell

NEW YORK,S TUNNEL.
Contractor Mcdonald Explains His
Plans For Completing the Work.

New York, Feb. 21-So well prepared
is John B. Mcdonald to take the pre-
liminary steps in the execution of the
contract for the construction of the I'M
foreground rapid transit road, which
he viii sign on next Saturday morning
at IL o'clock, that he has given out
a brief outline of his plans.
within a few days after the con-
tract is signed" he said, Il will send
invitations to we'll known contractors
to bid for the construction of certain
parts of the tunnel 1t is my inten-
ton to divide the work into fifteen Sec
tions and to ask for bids from con-
tractors of established reputation and
to select so far as possible those best
qualified for the several engineering
problems that are to be mastered.
Il might make that palmer by say
ing that every effort will be made to
put the right men in the right place.
Contractors experienced in earth eX-
cavation on dry land will not be placed
in competition with men experienced
in tunneling under rivers and vice
versa Any contractor may bid for the
work on two or three sections, but no
one contractor viii be given the whole
job.
''WiH you undertake personally the
construction of any part of the road?"
Il will not" was the reply. The
work will be by sub-contract. Each of
the fifteen divisions will be in charge
of the contractors whose responsibility
1 will determine. They will be respon-
sible to me, and I will be responsible
to the commission"
