\Here'fs a typical bit from William J.
Lampton's story in the June Era:
Mary was smiling when she came
home in the evening.
Mamma" she said without waiting.
WELL" her mother greeted her, I'm
glad to see you in better humor than
you were last night"
Il have reason to be-" she replied
mysteriously.
I'm sure Mr.. Dobbins has no reason
to think kindly of the way you treated
him last night. l think he is one of
the best men ever knew, and you had
no right to slight him as you did," COM
mented Mrs. Williams.
And STILL" continued Mary, more
mysteriously, "he never was so nice
to ne as he was to-day"
Did he propose?" asked Mrs. Will
liams. He told me last night he had
something to say to you, and asked
my permission to say it. OF course.
gave it gladly"
How perfectly lovely of you, you
dear old Mom," exclaimed Mary,
throwing her arms around her mother.
But you haven't said whether he
proposed or not. Did he?" Mrs. Will
lialns anxiously insisted. 'What did
he say?'
Mary was very deliberate at this
juncture.
He said,' she slowly responded to
her mothers appeal, "a whole 10, about
happy home and a wife to cheer him,
and the loneliness of a bachelors life,
and then he came out plumply and ask
ed me-if thought you would marry
him."
''Me?" gasped Mrs. Williams, almost
falling over. "Me?"
Yes, you" said Mary, land I told
him thought you would and it would
be just too lovely for anything, and
he's coming up this evening to ask you
himself. He said he never could have
done it if it hadn't been for me-"
well, L declare, cried Mrs. Will
lianss, trying to be calm, ''if that isn't
Mr.. Dobbins all over then 1 want TO
know" and she kissed her daughter,
adding a rapturous hug that would
have brought Mr.. Dobbins thither an
hour earlier if he had been a witness
to it.

MIR. BRYAN TO THE PRESIDENT.

mH. BIZ AN IO THE FhESlDENIs
In an open letter, published in Fri
days issue of his paper, The Common
err. Mr.. Bryan asks the President why
he hesitates to begin a criminal action
against the members of the beef trust.
He tells the President that he believes
he has the courage to take such step,
and that he has shown that he be-
lieves the members of the trust are
guilty by beginning civil suit against
them. In the course of his letter he
says:
1t is publicly stated that some of the
capitalists have condemned you for at
tempting to enforce the antitrust law,
even by civil process. 1t is even hint
ed that they threaten to oppose your
denomination if you show the strenu-
BUSINESS in this direction that you have
shown toward the Filipinos, but can
you be scared by such threats? You
have shown physical courage and
bravery upon the battle field. You
were not afraid of bullets when any one
of them might have taken your life.
VIII you now fear to face concentrated
wealth? Civil suits may annoy the
captains of industry. but if you are
going to shackle cunning you will have
to shackle 1t with criminal laws.
The letter is calculated to put the
President in a very embarrassing posi-,
ton. He has of course expressed his
belief in the guilt of the members of
the beef trust by ordering a civil suit
to be begun against them. There does
not seem therefore to be any good rea-
son why he should not order criminal
suit begun, if he is really in earnest
in his efforts to down the trust
1t is hardly probable that the Pres
ident will follow the course marked out
by Mr.. Bryan. 1t is a safe statement
that he did not begin the suits against
the railroad trust and the beef trust
until he was satisfied that his party
would be injured unless he did so. 1t
isn't the question of courage, as Mr..
Bryan seems to intimate. but Ques-
ton of politics. He doesn't want to in
jure his friends, the trusts, and he can
| IL becomes a question of party neces-
sity. He can now point to his action
against the railroad trust and the beef
trust and claim that his party is OPP
posed to all trusts which Cypress the
/ people, though the claim will not have
much to rest upon. 1t may be enough,
however, to enable it to make some
sort of a showing when attacked dur
| ing the pending congressional campaign
for not protecting the people against
! trusts.

The Universal Heart.
From the Era.

FROM the Era.
Since hoary- headed Time was young;
Since Art and Music found a tongue;
Since the first rose, with dew i'm
pearled,
This heart has throbbed through all
the world.
1t bleeds for freedom and for love
Dreams of beatitudes above
And yearns with everlasting pain
For those who never come again.
1t thrills to genius and to worth,
Yet loves the lowliest thing on Earth
Is SCARED with sin, and rent by grief,
And stripped of bloom like autumn's
leaf.
Coeval with the rolling spheres,
1t holds the burden of the years,
And beats like pulses of the sea,
This great heart of Humanity.
William Hamilton Hayne.

The Indianapolis (Ind) News (Dem.)
in this State has dropped Bryan and
free silver. the over-confidence of the
Republicans is bound to suffer a
skrinkage. The Democrats have great
recuperative powers"
The Buffalo IN. " Times (Dem)
says: why do the Republican news
papers wax so enthusiastic, every time
a Democratic convention neglects to
endorse the last national platform of
its party? In this because they be-
lieve such action will rebound to the
benefit of the Democrats, or to that
of the Republicans?
The Louisville CKy.) Courier-Journal
(Dem.) Quotes and Comments: We
denounce,' says the Indiana Democratic
platform, 1.-The Dingley tariff law as
the breeder of trusts, and demand
that tariff duties shall be levied for
the purposes of revenue only and linn
tied needs Of the Government honestly
and economically administered II
sounds mighty good to hear that sort
OF Democratic doctrine these days. 1t
is the true music. and it has always
been the music of which the Demo
cratic party since the war has marched
to victory"
The Philadelphia Record (Dem)
says: 1.-THE Democrats of Indiana
make Tariff Reform the issue against
the Trusts and the Republican party.
Instead ,of making the Republican pre-
tense of a resort to more or less futile
Federal and State Antitrust laws
and injunctions the Indiana Demo-
cracy denounces the Dingley tariff law
as the breeder OF Trusts and demands
that tariff duties shall be levied for
revenue only. In the coming elections
for Congress In the West there can
be no popular Misrepresentation in re-
gard 10 this plain issue with monipoly.
It's benehciaries and is champions"

Remarkable Memory.

At little dinner the other night the
statement was made that the colored
race had longer memories than white
folk, says the New York Times. Mark
Twain, who was present. agreed with
the remark. and to prove it told the
following:
Some years ago, when South, met
an old colored man who claimed to
have known George Washington.
asked him If he was in the boat when
Gen. Washington crossed the Delaware,
and he instantly replied. 'Lor'. Massa.
/ steered dat boat
Well said I, do you remember
when George took the hack at the
cherry tree2'
He looked worried for minute,
and then. with a beaming smile. said:
Why suah. Massa, I dun drove dat
hack myself.

To My Fellow Citizens and Supporters:
have replied by wire and mail to
many of my friends who have congrat-
ulated me on the race I made in the
recent state primary, but there are
thousands to whom am indebted for
assistance and support in the cam
paign. These friends are scattered
from the mountains to the sea, and it
is impossible to write to each of them.
l therefore take this means of return
ing to all of them my sincere thanks,
assuring them of my deep appreciation
of their good will and efforts. I had
nothing to offer these friends beyond
my promise to faithfully discharge the
duties of the high and honorable office
to which 1 aspired, and they accepted
that promise and voted for me. 1t was
not their fault that 1 did not win the
honor sought.
l trust this brief acknowledgment of
my grateful indebtedness will be ac-
cepted in the spirit it is made-as COM
ing straight from the heart.
To my friends and fellow citizens of
my dear Savannah I wish to say an
additional word. l have lived among
you from early boyhood. My life has
been as an open book before you. You
know my "incomings and outgoings."
And in this, the first time have asked
for consideration at your hands, you
nobly gave me your hearty support.
This was, indeed, one of the exceptions
to the biblical rule that a prophet it
not without honor save in his own
country" You, my friends, have hon
ored me beyond any other of my peo-
pie.
While I should have appreciated
most highly the honor of being Gov
ernor of the Empire State of the South,
had it been so ordered, 1 have no re-
grets for having entered the contest
for the nomination. 1t afforded me the
opportunity that comes to but few men,
of visiting nearly all sections of the
state, becoming acquainted with its
resources and meeting it's people.
There is no greater state than Georgia
and no better people exist than those
who dwell upon its mountain slopes,
its plains and it's seaboard. Any man
honored with it's governorship needs no
further honor, and If he does his duty
and endeavors to advance the inter-
ests of the whole people, and not his
own interests and those of a few po-
litical friends, he has a trust which, if
well discharged, will entitle him to an
honorable place in the history of his
state.
return my thanks to those of my
brethren of the newspaper fraternity
who helped me in the canvass and
cheered me in my efforts. The good
words written by them, and those
spoken by other friends, are in them
| selves sufficient to repay me for what
labor and anxiety I endured in my
campaign.
With heartfelt thanks to all, am
the grateful friend of my friends.

those British subjects of Irish birth
who fought in the Boer army? We
shall probably soon have a deliverance
on the subject. Col. Arthur Lynch,

the Boer side, and who was recently
elected to Parliament from Galway, de-
clares that he means to appear in Lon

AHEAD ron ENGLAND.

1t is freely predicted by men we'll
acquainted with British politics that
there is trouble ahead for Great
Britain in South Africa, and 1t will
not be caused by the Beers. 1t will
come from the gold mines of the
Transvaal and the diamond mines Of
the Orange Free State. the millionaire
mine owners who were largely respon-
sible for the South African war. 1t
was agreed in the terms of peace that
the farms of the Beers should not be
taxed to pay the expenses of the war.
On the contrary. the British govern
ment promised to rebuild the homes
and restock the farms of the. Beers.
But it is clearly the intention of the
government that some part Of the war
expenses shall be borne by the tVG
South African dependencies.
1t was announced the other day by
Mr.. Chamberlain, the Colonial Secre-
tary, and Sir Michael Hicks Beach,
the Chancellor of the Exchequer, that
it remained to be determined what
part of the war expenses should be
paid by the mine owners. This an
nouncement looks something like retri-
butive justice. 1t will be recalled that
the war between the Beers and the
British was fastened, If not actually
caused by the hostility of these mine
owners to the Boer government. They
wanted to get rid of that government,
because it subsisted almost wholly
upon taxes it levied upon the mines
and mining machinery and materials.
The mine owners wanted to pocket all
the profits from the mines, and so they
plotted against the Boer government.
1t is said that Mr.. Chamberlain was
in sympathy with them. 1t is certain
that they had the support of a large
number of influential people in Eng
land who held shares in the gold and
diamond mines. They thought if the
Boer government could be overthrow
the dividends on their shares would be
larger.
Now it seems that instead of taxing
the farms of the Beers for war ex-
penses the mines are to be taxed and
heavily taxed. The millionaire mine
owners, in bringing about the war,
jumped out of the frying pan into the
fire.
And now it is freely predicted that
these mine owners will give the Brit
ish government further trouble. They
gebbled up all the rich properties that
were sold during the year for non
payment of taxes, and they own all
of the influential newspapers in South
Africa. 1t is alleged that they are abs
solutely withoutSpa triotism, their only
purpose being to fill their pockets. In
this they will be assisted by a large
following in England who own "Kaf-
frs" the name for shares in South
African mines. The aim will be to
embarrass the government of South
Africa, with the view of having the
heavy taxes removed from the mines
The Beers will be In a position to
view with comparative indifference
whatever contest takes place between
the millionaire mine owning syndi-
Gates and the British government.
