WILLIAM j. BRYAN. in the Com
moner: What is there in Republi-
can policies to appeal to youhg men
just entering business life? They
knock at the door of business oppOr-
tunity only to find it closed by Trust
greed. They see legislation enacted
for the benefit of giant corporations
and combines of capital. They enter
the business world only to find com

the threshold of society and see a
growing ariatocracy based on gold.
They see opportunities WITHDRAWN,
ability discounted by machine meth
DDS and premium put Cd wealth

things are the legitimate results of

Over 100000 of them nave been kill

this because the official British re-

The bill in the Legislature propos
ing certain changes in the charter of
the city, has aroused considerable
opposition among a large number of
the tax pay ers-and rightfully, too.
Owing to the unexpected manner
and the unreasonable time in which
it bobbed up, and the mystery sur
rounding it's parentage, the people
have been led to suspect "a niger
in the wood-pile." There are few
things the public would doubtless
like to be informed upon. Where
did the bill originate, and by whom
was it fostered? Who are the signers
of that petition, and by whom was il
circulated? Do they constitute a
majority of Senator Erwin's con
stituents in Columbia? When did
the Legislative committee of the
Board of Mayor aud Aldermen eveI
hold meeting and recommend the
changes? Suchan important matter
as this, affecting as it does every
taxpayer in the city, should be
brought prominently before The peO'
pie, and they should be allowed
plenty of time in which to consider
it. At any rate they are entitled tC
some sayso in the matter, and theil
wishes should be obtained anC
respected.

have seen liquor and politicians
combine to defeat, and succeed in
defeating, what they have asked

have been betrayed by supposed
friends and tautalized by shifting
advocacy of the best methods of
dealing with this monster evil; all
this they (the temperance people,
have seen and felt aud endured, and
they have, with purpose that

| DAY LAST.
 Key k. k. Johnson preached at Trin-
 ity church on Sunday morning, giving
 an able sermon from the text: 1st Cor. A.: 2-4: Moreover it is required in stew ards that a man be found faithful .''
 "He that judgeth me is the Lord.' J The speaker first dwelt upon the fact that human life is a sacred trust from God. It is a stewardship of which we muSt4all give account to God. It is true that the textnhas primary refer ence to the work of the Christian mIn- istry, but readily lends itself to ap- piled also to Christian disciples gener- ally. It is very common thing to see men act as if they were accountable to no one, but it is the emphatic teach ing of Holy Scripture that all our life on earth: all our wealth, all our abil- ltieS constitute a stewardship which God has entrusted to us, of which we must one day render up an account to Him. Happy is that disciple of whom it may then be said: "Well done, thou good and faithful servant" In the second part of the discourse the preach CT spoke of the common evil habit of judging one another, and in eloquent words and apt illustration showed how inevitably all human judgment be- comes unfair, and that all real judg ment must be left to God Himself, "un- to whom all hearts are open, all de- sires knoWn,and from whom no secrets are hidn
