The ease with which the stock

Edito- Bryan, of the CommoEer,
and Watterson, of the Courier
Journal, have been .having an edi.
torial bout. Bryan stands for the
old landmarks, politically speak

coin; Watterson intimates that
these old doctrines are the good
and true, but holds that they do
not fiji the modern American nor
his environments and, therefore.
should be left as ancient history,
while the pushing business Inan
and the politician who would ride
upon the crest of success .Inust be
unincumbered with any ideas of
right or wrong as measured by the
old standard, rush along with the
Gladdening crowd, leaving the fu-
ture to take care of itself. Bryan
would try to stem the tide of error
no matter how high it had risen ;
Watterson would plunge in, after
the danger line is reached, and
fight for goodly portion Of the
spoils, floating with the current to
whatever haven it might carry
him. Bryan never ceases to bat.

The Hawks Lecture.

A. w. Hawks is one of the most
popular humorists on the plat
form. He never fails to delight
his audience. His record for re-
turn dates is phenomenal. His
wit is keen and his philosophy is
transparent. And his fun is new Q
made at the expense Of the keen
edge of the public's moral sensibi-
lities. He keeps the peopls in
roars of laughter. from beginning
to end of his lecture. without de-
scending to slang terms or vulgar
ity. 1t is an impossibility for one
to hear him and not laugh. There
is no doubt but that as an apos-
tie Of sunshine he is an immense
success.
