\ Martyr to Duty.-The late Repre-
sentative Sydney P. Epes of Virginia. ap-
pears to have been a martyr to that stern
sense OF partisan duty which controls the
House in all emergencies. The statement
is made that il Mr. Epes had gone to a
hospital last Wednesday and placed him
self under skillful treatment instead Of
going to the House TO vote with his party
against the Porto Rican Tariff bill the prob
abilities are he would be alive today Mir
Epes, II is said. knew last Tuesday that
he had appendicitis. The doctors had dag
nosed his ailment as this dangerous dis
ease and had advised him to 20 at once to
hospital and prepare for the inevitable
operation. Just at that time it seemed that
there was a good chance Of defeating the
Porto Rican bill, and every Democratic
vote available was needed When they
learned how serious was his illness the
Democratic whips tried to get a pair for
Mr.. Epes This the Republicans positively
refused to grant. Against the earnest ad-
vice of his physicians. his family, and his
friends, Mr.. Epes though suffering terri
bic torture. took his seat in the House
Wednesday morning and remained at his
post until the last vote was taken on the
Porto Rican bill. Then he was hurried off
to the Garfield Hospital. but the disease
had made such progress and had so Slapped
his vitality that on arrival at the hospital
il was recognized that his case was hope
less.

Secretary Wilson declares the PROPOSE
ton to run a boulevard through the Mall
is sacrilegious, and he is right. We want
to restore to national uses and the har-
mony OF lEnfsnt's design of the Capital
the area already given up for private bust
ness purposes on the south side of Penn
sylvania Avenue. and certainly do not
want to encourage any fresh vandalism
The Mall and every bit of green in the

There are two Senators who are never
too busy to stop and exchange greetings
with persons who approach them in the
proper spirit. And they are opposite types
OF men, One is Senator Morgan of Ala
bama and the other is Senator Mason OF
Illinois. Neither of these men is ever
in much of a hurry to discuss current
affairs. Senator Morgan is grave. courte-
Gus. and dignifed, a fine type of the
Southern gentleman of the old school;
Senator Mason is free, easy, and jolly
always affable and jcvial.

POLITICAL NOTES AND GOSSIP.

Question of CooIness.-''If the gen
teman from Texas will keep cool we shall
soon get Strengthened cut" exclaimed
Speaker Henderson yesterday afternoon
while the House was in confusion over a
parliamentary point raised by the Hon.
Joseph Weldon Bailey. IF the Chair VIII
keep as cool as l am right now, | think
We shall come out all right" roared the
young Texan back at the Speaker. Then
each disputant smiled blandly as II try
ing to impress all GREATNESS beholders
with the belief that each was perfectly
calm and collected. when. in point Of tact,
II appeared from the gallery that Car
Reed successor was angry enough to huri
the gayel at the head Of the Texan. II
was the first time General Henderson has
lost his head since he has been Speaker.
and it was obvious that Il he had been
backed by higher order OF floor leader
snip than the Republicans now have he
would not have lost his head. because the
House would not have become entangled.
The only way he got out Of the difficulty
was by some unusually arbitrary rulings
which were very strong reminders of the
only and mighty Reed.
Watch Mayor Grny.-A smooth faced,
clear-eyed young man is Mayor James
Gray. of Minneapolis. who was an in
terested spectator in the press gallery of
the Senate yesterday afternoon. Before he
yielded to the voice of the tempter. some
talk OF running him, nolens yolens. as
hrst rate newspaper man. He stepped
from the editorial sanctum into the mayor
atty Of Minneapolis as the Democratic idol
OF that part of the vineyard, and so well
mas he kept the faith that there is now
talk OF running him, nolens volens, as the
the successor of Gov. John Lind. Min
nesota has not elected many Democratic
Governors, and with the growth of De-
mocracy in the Northwest there is no tell
ing what awaits an ambitious and able
Democratic Governor of Minnesota. Mayor
Gray doesn't look to be more than thirty
hve. and while he is not enam0red of
public Office, it is understood that he could
not resist call TO the chief place in his
state. The governorship is the stepping
stone to the Senate in Minnesota and as
the young mayor of Minneapolis sat in
the Senate press gallery yesterday he was
observed to keep his gaze steadily fixed
upon the Hon. Knute Nelson, who, az
everybody knows, is not a prize beauty,
though very level-headed and capable
legislator

The Pennsylvania Railroad
Company is endeavoring to as
certain which plan of operating
Dining Cars is most satisfactory
to the travelling public; whether
the old one dollar per meal plan
or the more modern Cafe A
La Carte plan, by having the
patrons of it's Dining Cars, which
are now operated on the old plan,
express their preferences by bal
lot. Several persons who recently
visited Philadelphia, travelling
via the Queen & Crescent Route
which has an excellent Cafe Din
ing Car System, state that their
observation indicates that a ma
iority of the votes cast will be in
favor of the A La Carte plan.

The Real Bryan.

fThe term "demagogue' IS OF
tn applied to Mr.. Bryan by per-
sons who are incapable of com
pretending his position, and are
ignorant of the term by which
they hope to dismiss discussion
of him. The following sketch of
him from the pen of a writer in
one of the leading magazines
and from one, too, who does not
coincide with his views-is fair
estimate of the man:
"Now the truth of the matter
is that Mr.. Bryan is not dem
agogue. He is absolutely
honest, which demagogue is not.
He is absolutely brave, which a
demagogue is not. He is passion
ately sincere, which demagogue
is not. When Mr.. Bryan came to
Nebraska, dozen years ago, his
town, his congressional district
and his state we're over-whelm-
ingly republican. Bryan took
up the cause of tariff reform, and
fought losing fight. When he
became convinced that free silver
was right, he preached 1t IN his
congressional district with his
party organization and the odds
of battle against him. He ran
for the United States senate IN
1894 with his party's state con-
vention endorsement. Ii he had
trimmed a little on free silver,
the Cleveland gold democrats
might have turned the scales in
his favor. But he didn't trim; he
lost. When Bryan left the volun-
teer army of the United States IN
1898, his party had been oppos-
ing the ratification of the peace
treaty with Spain. Bryan oppos-
ed his party and favored the ratl-
fcation of the treaty. A d1shon-
est man would have glorled III
fighting the treaty, Today sill
yer sentiment is dying in the
west. Bryan would not lose an
electoral vote by abandoning sill
yer. He would gain thousands
of franchises in the east by such
a course. But because he be-
lieves that the free coinage OF sill
yer is right, wild horses cannot
drag him from his stand.
Above everything else, Bryan
personally is what may be called
a clean man. He is a member of
the Presbyterian church, though
he does not add to his other fault
the "vice Of piety." His home
life is that of the average we'll
bred American-simple, atfcc-
tionate, stimulating. He takes
his wife into partnership in all
his interests. She is his only
Confdant and final adviser. In
the town of Lincoln, which does
not agree with him politically,
and will not vote for him, Bryan
bears the reputation of straight
forward, honorable man, whose
word is good, and whose debts
are paid when they fall due. In
the intrigues of local politics
Bryan is not a dominant force.
He has never dominated there.
He talked himself into his ho
