n prominent resident of Lincoln, Neb is
quoted thus about a distinguished neighbor:
The Bryan of yesterday was presiden-
tiai possibility. with all its attendant char
acterIstlcs- He was hail fellow well met
with everybody. Today il is another story.
He is becoming reserved and is assuming
the general air of the money maker. Years
ago when l first knew Bryan he was an
obscure attorney in an obscure town.
Twelve hundred dollars year was wealth
TO him then. Today Bryan is worth $50 OoO
and is rapidly adding to the pile He made
xOOO0 last year lecturing and with his
pen, which is In itself a White House sal
ary. He is having plans drawn for a
rather pretentious mansion on his farm
just out OF Lincoln"
Mr.. Bryan will lose no popularity because
OF plling up little money. In doing that
he Is simply keeping up with his own pro-
cession- Think of Governor Hogg. Remem-
Der Charles A. Towne. And there is Thomas S
Watson. who. although a poor man in 1896,
has since then abandoned politics, journal
ism and the law, and as a man of letters
Is in snug financial circumstances today

Frs are getting rich all around him. should
Mr.. Bryan remain poor simply for the sim
guiarity of the thing? He does right In
Uetting rich. too; and in drawing checks
with as much ease as any of his followers
He could not indeed have remained poor
except at the expense of everyday common
sense. How could he refuse the money

does know that these records show less Of
a discrepancy than in some other cities,
despite the wide expanse of asphalt pave
ment here. which has tendency to con-
centrate the heat and to hold it for distri-

death roll is usually smaller in proportion

ideal summer resort, but it can point to
longer average of delightful weather than
most other American communities and it is
a noticeable fact that If it were not for
the summer exodus Of Congress, which
gets the people into bad habits Of leaving
their homes for questionable comfort else

On the eve of Independence day, when
the youngsters are accommodating their
stores of fireworks and preparing for a
glorious day of noise. word of advice to
the parents of Washington is in season.
There is certain to be some suffering to-
morrow. Some little fingers are sure to be
burned, perhaps mutilated. Death even
may come to mar holiday which is meant
to send joy to every heart. Every parent
will feel anxious throughout the day Some
of this worry may be avoided if they will
themselves take charge of the pyrotechnics,
teach the little folks how to be careful,
prevent them from taking dangerous risks
and in many ways mix in with the noisy
celebration of the day child of larger
growth, contributing thereto an element of
discretion and good judgment.
The average Fourth of July accident re-
suits from the ignorant risks of children.
OF course, many grown-ups are victims Of
the frecracker habit but it will usually be
found when the cases are investigated that
they are little more than children them
selves in judgment. The boy who puts a
dynamite cracker under tin can and then
stands close by in a spirit of bravado to
watch it send the can skyward, the boy
who insists upon holding the cracker a sec
ollu ionSer IMAM necessary To snow MS
nerve. the boy who peers into the mouth Of
the toy cannon to See why it has not eX-
pl0ded. the boy who lights the sky-rocket
while standing over it-these are a few of
the cases which this occasion always de-
yelops. Perhaps the presence of an elder
would not wholly prevent such proceedings,
but it would certainly reduce the percent
age of danger.
Parents must not rely too implicitly upon
the police regulation prohibiting the sale
of giant crackers and toy cannons There
is certain to be some cOntraband dealing
tonight and tomorrow, when the police are
unable to prevent, and no one knows how
many hundreds of pieces of juvenile artil
lery are stored away in closets and wood
sheds for surreptitious use tomorrow. Boys
manage to get powder despite the most
though they manufactured it. so readily
does it come to their hand when they have
something from which to shoot it.
So the wise parent will keep his watch
ful eye upon his offspring throughout the
day If he would prevent disaster. 1t may
interfere with other plans. 1t may prevent
a fishing trip, or a steamboat ride or a
base ball game but such sacrifices are well
worth while if limb or life is saved
A thoughtful parent might even make the
day doubly interesting to his son by en-
gaging in the obServances of the occasion.
explaining the reason for the license and
showing spirit of comradeship which al
most every boy is sure to appreciate.

But the new house should give him pause.
He should approach that proposition slowly
and prayerfully. If he builds, it must be in
keeping not only with his means, but with
other things. He Is the most noted man
west Of the Mississippi river, and when the
people hear that the foundations for a new
house are laying they Will expect them to
be of generous proportions They will con-
clude that the old house is now too small
for the social obligations of great politi-
cal leader, and that only large and stately
establishment will serve his present pur-
poses.
But a large and finished establishment is
a dangerous investment for a political
leader. The game of politics Is now and
then played so low down that distinguished
men have found photographs of their
homes in greater use in campaigns than
photographs of themselves. Pictures of the
house that Mr.. Blaine built for himself in
this city figured largely in the campaign
against him in 1884. while house that Mr.
Window built for residence purposes de-
feated him in his effort to be reelected to
the Senate. And yet neither house was be-

requirements of his family and their So

The snug frame cottage at Lincoln is as
sociated with Mr.. Bryan in his most at
traCtive form. He emerged from it to go to
Chicago in 1896. and he returned to it a
fortnight later happy and a very famous
man. and it has been the scene of many
good politics to make it serve at least until

reason is plain, and it casts no reflection on
the old soldier himself. His interest Is IN
those whose interest centers in Cuba, and
he can afford to ignore an easily traced
frown or bit of scurrility.
The brief address which General Gomez
has issued to the public is in response to
many natural inquiries. and it is highly
creditable to him both as man and soldier
1t shows him to be in sympathy with the
conservative sentiment as to Cuba's future.
and not in any sense distrustful of the part
the United States will play friend of
the island. His dream of free government
for the Cubans is to be realized, and. in
that realization. his long-continued efforts
in the field of action are to be rewarded.
The struggle in which he played con-
spiCuous a part has been won. and he can
well afford the satisfaction he feels at the
result.
With respect to the presidency of Cuba.
General Gomez expresses some sound opin-
Ions. His name has been proposed in
many quarters, and there can be no doubt
that his selection would please many of his
friends and admirers. But he neither de-
sires the office. nor feels special qualifica-
tionS for il. He is a soldier. whose life has
been spent in agitation and action, and he
describes with some felicity the difference
between the solving of difficulties by a SOL
dier and by civilian official. In civil of
flee one cannot hew his way through with
cold steel. but must slowly investigate the
mazes of the tangle and unite the knots
with skill For such work General Gomez
has had no training. and he would have
everything to lose and nothing to gain by
Undertaking it at a period sown with en-
barTaSsments
But 1t Will still be in the power of General
Gomez to render Cuba conspicuous service
ahG TINS We may expect from him. Ills in
nuence with the people of Cuba will con-
flnue strong while he lives and many will
look to him for counsel in matters of mo.

even assuming that the threatened salt
combination should really acquire a definite
economic value, there exists no cause for
the evident alarm in the matter. If such a
corporation came into being, it would do SO
from the one reason that it's projectors
were capable of producing supply of salt
sufficient for the world, and at prices that
would permit of lower selling the part
