deputy commissioner Said:-
"It looks 10 me in the face Of what

IL wouldn talk now but it is an
unfair thing that men should stoop 50
low as to make political issue at the

The deputy commissioner said that
he had suggested.,o Mr.. Pnilbin when
he was app tinted district attorney

gress elections.
Mr.. Bryan, to his honor be it said,
never left any mind in doubt as to
where he stood on this issue. His
terrible defeat in 1896 did not fright
en- him away from loyalty to his con-
victions and from the square and pre-
else declaration of them. That is,
he behaved like an honest and sincere
man. He was an enemy who fought
in the open and used no ambushing
methods in his fighting When the
victory was won against him, there
fore, it was positive, and the Republic
prospered exceedingly by the decisive
settlement.
Mr.. Bryan represents a bad and,
we believe, hopeless cause, but he
fights for it boldly in the open field,
like brave and honest man.

BRYAN.
(Fr ON the New York su ny


The tribute to President Mckinley
paid by Mr.. Bryan in the last number
of his paper is of great dignity and
manifest sincerity.
Neither has there been in the career
of Mr.. Bryan since he first became II
political figure of national Importance
any conduct on his part or has there
come from him any expression which
can fairly be criticised as indicative of
a deficiency of that quality and that
virtue in him.
He has deported himself throughout
as became his place as the leader and
representative of political movement
Of the most serious significance, for it
is distinctiyely revolutionary move
ment. Mr.. Bryan has never degraded
it by tlippancy, and his refusal to
cloak Its purposes, even to coneiliate
party enemies, and his brave consist
ency in the square declaration and
defense of its theory and principles
have earned for him personally a re-
spect which is denied to the cause
he represents.
BY this honorable and courageous
course Mr.. Bryan has performed n
great public service. He has put sbe-
fore the people clean-cut issue, with
out evasion and without compromise.
He has not played the part of the
small and tricky politician fertile in
compromises because of his destltution
Of earnest. political principle. If at
! the elections of 1896 and 1900 he had
sought artfully to confuse the public
mind as to his and his partys posi-
/ ton and intention, after a manner
! unhappily frequent in national cam
/ paigns of the past, the great profit
of the decision rendered and the great
education of the discussion prelimi-
nary to 1t would have been lost.
II will he remembered that in Ger
thin state and Congress campaigns
between 1896 and 1900, Democratic
conventions made not unnatural but
wholly discreditable attempt which
was sometimes successful, to divert
!. attention from the principles of theii
party as laid down so clearly and EN-
phatically In the, Chicago platform
Candidates were run on platforms
which studiously Ignored the piyo
tai and vital question OF the currency
with the view of catching gold votes
and at the same time not driving
away silver votes, Democratic candi
dates for Congress, even here In New
York, whose prosperity so plainly de
pended on the gold standard, refused
absolutely TO commit themselves a
all on the subject. They would no
: confess whether they We're for gold o
for silver. 1t was shameful exhibi

> of the local Democracy, for, of couSse
