CURRENT COMMENT.

The Birmingham Age-Herald (Dem.)
says: Congressman Littlefeld is
thinking up dreadful things he will do
to the trusts while Congress is not in
session"
The Mobile Register (Dem.) says:
at is said that a new party is to be
formed in the interest of Mr.. Bryan
and is to be known as the Liberal De-
mocracy. We do not believe Mr.. Bryan
will give up the signboard of the old
firm unless it is wrenched from his
grasp
The Montgomery Advertiser (Dem.)
says: when Sir Michael Hicks-Beach
spoke of corn as grain of the horse
feed class, he showed the narrow pref
udice of a typical Briton or the ignor-
ance of a typical nobleman about that
grain. The men whose energy, in
tellect and enterprise are pushing Eng
lishmen aside wherever they come in
contact are largely corn-fed Ameri-
cans. Sir Mike should post himself
somewhat"
The Richmond News Dem.) says:
cit is lamentable that man who has
been twice the candidate of the Oldest
party in the country. and great party
with magnificent principles, should de-
scend to such cheap and improbable
bidding for support. He imagines an
aristocracy and he imagines calamity
and he repudiates the prosperity and
progress evidences of which are in the
hands and before the eyes of every
man. He is kicking against the pricks,
he is arguing against facts, he is draw
ing chimeras from the air. He is do
ing his best to postpone the rehabili-
tation and reorganization of the De-
mocracy. which no power can prevent.
We are sincerely sorry to see so good
a man put himself in so bad a position.
SO long as he persists in doing so.
however, the feeling against him in the
Democratic party will continue to har-
den. Confidence in his sagacity has
departed. he seems 10 be laboring to
destroy confidence in his integrity"

sHEPARD,s CHANCE.

There is no doubt that Edward NJ
Shepard is ambitious for political hon.
ors. His acceptance of the Tammany
nomination for Mayor of New York
is evidence of it. He had been a Bit
ter critic of Tammany almost up to
the time he became it's candidate. But
no one has ever doubted his ability or
his integrity.
He has chance of being the Demo
cratic nominee for President 1t must
be admitted that it is not a very good
one at present but it is a chance that
is well worth watching. If it were sat-
isfactorily demonstrated that Mr..
Shepard could carry New York there
would be a movement in his favor at
once. He made a good run as the
Democratic candidate for Mayor of
New York City, and there is every
reason to think that, as a candidate for
the presidential nomination of his par
ty, he would have the support of
Tammany. Indeed, it is probable that
he would be acceptable to the Democ-
racy of the state of New York.
But the important point is that he
appears to be acceptable to the Bryan
Democracy. At least Mr.. Bryan spoke
in high praise of him at the banquet
of the New England League, and the
man Mr.. Bryan favors the Bryan
Democracy is likely to favor.
And there would be but little, if any,
opposition to him by those Democrats
who are not in sympathy with the
Bryan Democracy-th Democrats who
look with favor on Mr. Cleveland and
Mr.. Hill.
OF course what Mr.. Bryan said in
praise of Mr.. Shepard at the dinner
of the New England League was not
intended to be an announcement that
Mr.. Shepard would be acceptable 10
him as a presidential candidate but
it is fair inference from what he said
that Mr.. Shepard would be an accept
able candidate. The fact that Mr..
Shepard. although a gold Democrat,
supported him in 1896 and 1900-stood
by the platform and the tickets APP
preciated by Mr.. Bryan at its full wall
ue.
Mr. Bryan knows that he cannot he
nominated in 1904, though it is rumored
that he Is planning to be nominated in
1908, and he understands that there is
no probability of any one being nom
mated who has been conspicuous in
his advocacy of the 16 to l idea.
Therefore he may throw his influence
to a gold Democrat such as Mr.. Shep-
ard was in the Bryan campaigns. He
is willing to accept almost any suit
able Democrat as the party's presi-
Dental nominee in order to prevent the
party from passing under the influence
of Mr.. Cleveland, Mr.. German. Mr..
Hill and their friends. Mr.. Shepard's
chance for the presidential nomination
of his party therefore while not very
good just now promises to improve
with each month, and it would not be
surprising if it were exceedingly good
by the time of the meeting of nomi-
mating convention

WHY SEEK RESI- IN EUROPE,

On Thursday Mr.. Root, Secretary of
War, sailed for Europe on a short va
cation. From the beginning of summer
until early fall every year names of
our public men and our wealthy fam
lilies are found in the passenger lists
of European steamers. Why is 1t that
81 many prominent and wealthy Amer
leans, when they want to take a rest,
go to Europe instead of visiting inter-
esting places in their own country?
There is as fine scenery in the United
States as there is in Europe. There
may not be as much interest in Amer
lean cities-that is counting things
that are old more interesting than
these which are comparatively new
as in the cities of Europe, but it is
doubtful If Americans find European
cities very much more attractive than
their own.
European statesmen do not visit
this country when they take a holi-
day. They spend their money in their
own country. They think more of their
cwn country than any other. They are
not ready to admit that other coun-
tries have attractions greater than
their own.
The rich people of Europe do not
come to the United States for pleas
ure or for observation. Once in while
a young man having a title comes, but
as rule he is impecunious and seeks
rich wife. OF course a few come, but
there is no such rush of travellers from
Europe to the United States as there
is from the United States to Europe.
| And yet the United States are worli
power-in fact, the greatest power in
the world. and will soon be the world
! financial center.
Is 1t not time for Americans to show
try by not rushing off to Europe every
time they have vacation or a few
extra dollars to spend? There are
greater attractions at home. Is it be-
cause there are titled people and roy
atty in Europe that they are so anx-
icus to show their faces in foreign cap
itals? Or is it that they want the sat
isfaction of saying they have visited
Europe? AS citizens of the greatest
country of the world they ought tc
have too much pride to go trottine
around in the kingdoms and principali-
ties of Europe, hoping to catch a
glimpse of royalty or of titled persons
when the representative people o.
those countries never think of VISITING
the United States.

A Story of Dumas.

Among the many amusing anecdotes
of Dumas recalled by the recent cell
ebrations, says the New York Tribune,
is this, illustrating his light hearted
carelessness in money matters:
On one occasion he returned to Paris
from abroad with an empty pocket.
He began to try to remember who was
his best friend, and decided it was
Cain, the great French sculptor then
already rich in glory but poor in gold.
Dumas straightway hired a cab and
drove off to Gains fiat. The sculptor
was out, but Nine. Cain received the
illustrious visitor.
MY dear Nine Cain" said Dumas.
after while, cit is really awkward
that your husband is out, for I wanted
to borrow some money"
"Oh!" said the lady, somewhat con-
fused and half ashamed, my husband
has only left me twenty franc piece
for the household. but if it is of any
use YOU are welcome to it,
why, certainly: let me have it."
said Dumas. pocketing the louis with
as much unconcern as he would have
given it himself. AS he rose to go he
espied jar of pickles on the side
board. What delicious pickles." he
exclaimed, tasting one.
With a housewives pride Nine. Cain
explained that they were homemade,
and, feeling fattered, she offered a
jarful to Dumas. He wanted to take
the jar under his arm there and then.
but Nine, Cain insisted that her SER
want should carry it down to his cab.
When Dumas was gone the poor
woman began to wonder how she was
going to manage for the day without
money. and was in quandary when
the $irl came back, her face all
wreathed in smiles, and with a louis
in her hand. Dumas had handed her
as tip for carrying the jar down.

DEMOCRATIC DIFFERENCES.

What are the differences between the
two factions-or rather the two groups,
as Mr. Bryan calls them-of the Dem
ocratic party? Are they so very great
after also great that they could not
be easily adjusted If the work of ad-
justment were undertaken in the right
sort of spirit?
Mr.. Villas, who is a prominent repre-
sentative of one of the groups, said,
in his harmony letter the other day,
that the group with which he was as
ISOLATED was in entire accord with the
principles of Thomas jefferson. In
his speech at the New England DEM
ocratic League dinner last Thursday,
Mr.. Bryan had a great deal to say
about Thomas Jefferson's principles
he always does in fact-and insisted
that his group was in entire accord
with them.
Unless there is a difference in the I'M
derstanding as to what the principles
Of Thomas jefferson are both groups
of the Democratic party cannot be in
harmony with them.
plan that might lead to the adjust
ment of all differences between Dem
ocrats-to appoint committee to make
declaration as to what the princi-
pies of Thomas jefferson are? Each
of the two groups can then compare
it's principles with those of Thomas
jefferson, and, as both claim to be in
harmony with them. the one that Is
found to be out of harmony would
have TO readjust its principles in order
to be consistent. When it does that
there will be nothing to keep the two
groups apart because the principles
of each agreeing with those of Thorn
as Jefferson must necessarily a&ree
with each other.
| There will be no occasion then for
Mr.. Cleveland or any other Democrat
to draw unfriendly pictures of Mr..
! Bryan or for Mr.. Bryan to draw I'M
| friendly pictures of Mr.. Cleveland Mr..
Hill or Mr.. German. The harmony
which is so much talked of and so
much desired will have arrived.

Concerning His Muttons.

The late DR.. Talmage once called on
his lawyer and found two of his par
ishioners there on legal business of a
private nature. says the Philadelphia
Times.
"Ah! Doctor" called the lawyer. in
greeting. Good morning! Here are
two of your flock. May ask without
impertinence if you regard them as
black sheep or white?"
Il don't know as yet replied Tai
mage, dryly, whether they're black
or white. but I'm very certain that.
II they remain here long, they'll be
fieeced."

Silver and Month Rhymed Mt Last.

Silver and Month Rhymed Mt Last.
We remarked the other day, says the
London Chronicle, that there is but one
rhyme to month" Since then
poets have bombarded us for informa-
ton. The pathetic pleading of poet
ess, however, cannot be withstood,
though we fear she will find it not easy
to arrange marriage of love between
month" and its only rhyme, which
was discovered by a Cambridge math-
ematician 1t is xn- H. which is, of
course, read TX to the Tilus oneth.'
1t is to correspondent from Stat
fordshire that the poet owes his future
ability to rhyme to Silver" and we
trust to gold There is such a thing
as a ''chilver." which appears in Waits
and Somerset sales, and is really a eve
lamb. You may find the word in the
supplement to Webster, with a refer
ence to the German dialectical xii
ber," who is young ram. We make no
complaint as to the feminine usurpa-
ton of the "chilver," but welcome her
with open arms, in the sure hope that
some versifier will shortly wed her
richly to her only rhyme. But as Chill
yer" does not exist in the dictionaries,
one may add that the only rhyme to
silver is all "x'-an unknown guam
tity
The ryhmester's difficulties (says one
who knows something of them by prac-
teal experience) are much greater
when dealing with words which have
no suitable rhymes-or very few OF
them-than when it is a question of an
academic kind, such as is raised by
the one rhyme for month" and the
lately discovered mate for Silver" A
writer is handicapped very little in
deed by not being able to place either
of those words at the end of a line
but it is far otherwise when he is
tempted to try for a rhyme with
else" self" and wealth" These
words are not rhymeless, but for -prac-
teal purposes they might almost as
we'll be, and the idiom of the language
is opposed to any inversion in the case
of the first two.

day or two ago had three dispatches
from as many places in Oregon each

peared. One dispatch said he was
clean shaver. well-fed and fresh. and
that he was afoot- Another described
him with weeks growth of beard
and riding bicycle. with his Win
chester thrown over his shoulder. The
third located him driving leisurely in
farmers spring wagon towards the
capital of the state. Probably we shall
next hear of the daring fellow in an

again, there is a large demand for la
Dor; and the owners of the mines
have determined that they will en-

men, 1t is said, are wanted for the
mines and attached works. A great
many are to be taken out from Eng
land. The wage is to be slips per day,
with board and lodging. If the mine
owners can get the white men they
desire, they will employ the blacks in
railroad building and on farms.
If there were two politicians in the
country who could gather about the
bulletin boards as great crowds as
