The fuss the Democrats are so gen.
orally making about their late candi-
date for the Presidency, William J.
Bryan, is becoming somewhat gro
tesque. They want him to keep quiet
and let himself be forgotten. They
have tackled the wrong man at the
wrong time.
Why shouldn't Colonel Bryan run
about the country and do things as
long as it cannot harm him? at the
time he was first nominated he and
his platform were a menace to the
whole country. There was appre-
hension that in failure of the peo-
pie to comprehend the consequences
his election might be possible. From
the end of that campaign to the pres
ent time he has been a menace to
nothing but the Democratic party.
The country can easily afford that,
and to have it continued as long as
Colonel Bryan has inclination and
health to work along in this special
line. Possibly he realizes that this is
the most effective if not the only way
he can render the country a service.
He is also taking care of himself
Unless all information is wrong he
has made a great deal of money out
of the Importance he has acquired
from being the Democratic candidate
for President. Unless he halts him
self, or wastes too much of his wealth
in fancy cattle and mosaic mantels,
he is in a way to take his place proud
lY among the among the plutocrats of
the country in the near future, where
he can look upon the octopus and the
money devil without throwing fits.
To subside by request would be to
surrender this golden opportunity
and shut off the princely income
which he is able to secure without
the assistance of an artificial mega
phone.
More than this, Colonel Bryan may
want to run for President Just once
more. He could do nothing else that
would give him so good chance to
get even with his enemies in the Dem
ocratic party and all of them at once.
He cannot forget that his particularly
hated rival, Grover Cleveland had
three nominations and there ought
to be an honest divide. Would it be
fair to say that one Democrat is not
entitled to as many nominations as
another Democrat? The spirit of
Jefferson-and as likely as not the
ghosts of few others-would rise up
to denounce such discrimination. 1t
would be worse than the crime of '73;
it would be heavier to bear than the
cross of gold.
Let Colonel Bryan have a chance.
Let him roam the country at large as
he pleases, oratorically, prophetically
and in all sorts of ways. Let him run
for President and do well by himself
and smash the Democratic party.
These are his specialties.

THURSDAY, AUGUST "A, 1902.
IuDGE DAVID W. SLOAN.

Mondays issue of the Baltimore
Sun contained the following editorial
relative to the death of the late Judge
Sloan:
THE spontaneous tributes which
the bar associations and the judiciary
in the counties of Allegany, Garrett
and Washington, comprising the
Fourth Judicial Circuit, paid SO
promptly to the memory of Associate
Judge David W. Sloan, when the an
nouncement of his death was made,
amply testify to the high esteem in
which his ability and worth were
held among his own people. Before
his elevation to the bench he took an
active part in politics and speedily
developed qualities that commended
him to local leadership in the Repub-
lican party In this connection he
was brilliant organizer and tire
less worker. He was a ready and
captivating speaker, with qualities
well calculated to popularize himself
and any cause he espoused.
LAS a prosecuting States attorney,
holding that Office in Allegany county
for IL years, he was painstaking, Wig
orous, fearless and at the same time
kindly and charitable. He was well
grounded in the law, widely acquaint-
ed with literature; he knew men. and
had benevolent sympathies with all
his fellow creatures. He was never
harsh, but always considerate and
just in the relations of life. He was
liberal in his judgments, charitable
and kindly in his disposition. 1t has
been said of him by the chief judge
OF his circuit that he could get at the
facts of case easier than any one |
ever knew His quick and discern
ing mind was at all times ready for
every occasion or emergency. He
died at the age of 50 years, having
not yet quite reached the middle of
the term of IS years as a judge, to
which Office he was elected in 1895.
But he was long enough on the bench
to bring effectively into play those
qualities of mind and heart and char
acter which distinguished him, and
made him acceptable to the people"

HE IS A REPUBLICAN.


One of the Committeeman Elected at the
Prohibition Convention Emphat-
ically Declines.
Mr.. George w. Engle, of Bittinger,
who was elected at recent Prohibi-
ton convention in Oakland as dis
trict committeeman, has written the
appended letter, declining the I'M
sought honor cast upon him, with the
request that it be published;
BITTINGER, Md, Aug. II, 1902.
To the Editor of The Republican.
l notice in the last issue of your pa
per that | was selected for some kind
of a committeeman at the Prohibition
convention held at Oakland last week.
| want to say that said selection was
made without my knowledge or con-
sent and that most emphatically and
positively decline to have anything
to do with it whatever.
q While it is true that l am as much
opposed to the saloons and liquor
traffic as any one need be, yet l am
by no means a Prohibitionist but q
Republican of the 'straightest' kind
and what time have to spare for
politics will be in the interest of Hon.
George A. Pearre and not for some
fanatical Prohibitionist.
Very respectfully,
GEO. w. ENGLE.

THE trouble is that the Democrats
have no issues and no man." This
remark is attributed to William G..
Whitney. 1t is sweeping. Did he
make it? We may well believe that
Mr.. Whitney has no sympathy with
his party's cutlery about trusts. AS a
very rich man and resident of New
York, without political aspirations,
he can afford be frank on that sub
ject. As the man who laughed at his
party's free trade platform in 1892
and encouraged it's reputation by
Congress, he may not be suspected of
any sympathy with the current talk
about reviving the tariff for campaign
purposes. And as the man who while
Secretary Of the Navy did so much
for the rehabilitation of the navy he
doubtless has small patience with
those who see in the larger army and
navy menace to Republican institu-
tions. Militarism and imperialism
can have no terrors for one familiar
as he is with the worlds progress.
And no mann" That includes Mr..
Hill, whom Mr.. Whitney helped to
defeat at Chicago ten years ago; Mr..
German, who agrees with Mr.. Whit
ney on the question; Edward M.
Shepherd, whom Mr.. Whitney sup
ported for mayor of New York last
year, and Mr.. Olney. And of course
Mr.. Whitney throws Mr.. Bryan in for
good measure. Does Mr.. Whitney
expect any developments which will
change the situation before the sum-
mer of 1904?

he remained one year, from there he

THE coronation of King Edward
VII of England on Saturday last was
a great event in the history of Great
Britain, notwithstandingthe fact that
English history is being made very
rapidly these days. All the old form
and pageantry attending royalty were
strictly observed oil this occasion, and
the ceremony and exercises were I'M
doubtedly of great and unusual in
terest to the few Americans who were
fortunate enough to witness them.
As a ruler King Edward has been
quite successful and seems to enjoy
the love and good will of his subjects,
and in this respect should be counted
fortunate; but with his life hanging
in the balance as it is, and knowing
that he is soon to undergo another
surgical operation, he deserves, and
evidently has, the sympathy of the
world,

The Burlington Extension.

1t is reported that the two gangs
of surveyors who have been in the
field for the Burlington between this
city and Great Falls have been called
off, says the Billings Gazette. One
of them has been ordered 10 Garland.
presumably to run a line up Wood
river to Meeteetse and Kirwin. while
the other is said to have received in
structions to report at Lincoln. This
means that either a route has been
selected for the proposed extension
OF the Burlington to a junction point
with the Great Northern or that the
project of building the road has been.
temporarily at least. abandoned.
