English church who on one occasion
had to take the pulpit in the absence
of the minister at the last moment. He

the sermon he found his difficulty

NEW FORM or BRYANITIS.

William Jennings Bryan has many
times been guilty Of indecent exposure
of demagogery and has often disgust
ed members OF his own party thereby,
but at no time has he ever more tho
roughly exhibited himself as an an
mitigated ass, wholly unfit to be seri-
ously regarded as statesman, than in
his narrow, bigoted, unpatriotic, de-
mogogical comment on the recogni-
ton by the United States of the ap-
preaching British coronation cere-
MONIES. BynO one has so effective and
dignified a rebuke been administered
to the SNUG and self-complacent editor
of the Commoner as that of the veter-
an John B. Stoll, editor of the demo-
cratic South Bend Times, who uses
the following temperate but clear and
incisive language:
This country is one of the great
powers of the world. Necessarily 1T
must have intercourse with all of
them. Common courtesy demands
that the representatives of these gov
ernments be treated civilly and con-
siderately-just as we expect represen-
tatives of our government to be treat
ed when abroad. In doing this we dc
not necessarily commit ourselves to
their theory or form of government,
With that we have nothing to do, one
way or another; no more than foreign
governments have to do with our own.
When the official head of kingdom
or empire celebrates an event, it be-
hooves us to show proper courtesy
that and nothing more or less.
''Friendly relations with all; eEtang-
ling alliances with none, Z" is good
American doctrine. Let US adhere to
it rigidly. AS to observing the crown
ing of King Edward as national holt
day, that is the veriest nonsense.

With Cuba on one side of Santo
Domingo, and Porto Rico and the
Danish West Indies On the other side,
separated only by narrow channels,
the old scheme of bringing SantO Do
mingo and its neighbOr, Haiti, under
the stars and stripes must soon be re-
viyed. Domingo, which has a govern
ment OF whites, is favorable, but
Haiti, black man S country, is very
much opposed. The two nations are
separated only by a mountain range
and are constantly on the edge of
war, situation liable at any time to
demand the attention Of Uncle Sam
as a peacemaker. The advance of
American civilization will eventually,
and perhaps soon, make the acquisi-
tion of this other island necessary.

The Law Should be Known.

The new law enacted by the last
legislature entitled San act to regulate
the sale of merchandise" was passed
on by Judge Jones of the city court at
Elwood recently, and upheld in all its
provisions. The law provides that
when a party purchases a business he
must first notify each of the creditors
Of the old firm, giving at least five
days notice before the transfer is
made in order that the creditors may
have an opportunity to protect them
selves if necessary. The suit was
brought by the Thompson Cigar COM
pany of Logansport against David
Vest of Elwood, who recently pur-
chased the business of Alonzo Greg
mile and failed to comply with the
provisions of the law The court de-
clared the sale void and ordered the
merchandise sold to satisfy the claims
of creditors.

the establishment of rural delivery,
the installation of country telephones
and the construction of electric inter
urban railway lines the isolation of
farm life is becoming thing of the
past and the attractions of rural life
are increasing. 1t is becoming pos
sible for town and city business peo-
pie to reside in the country and that
tendency is raising the value of farm
lands. The improved conditions of
rural life have greatly elevated the
profession Of agriculture and have
UNNECESSARILY raised the intellectual
standard in the farming communities.
The farmer may now have anything
that his neighbor in the town may
have but the townsman is forever de-
prived of the advantages possessed by
his customer i'm the country.
New opportunities are constantly
presented to the farmer whereby he
may add 70 the dignity and profit of
his calling, and the progressive rural
list is the enc whose eyes are open to
all such chances. So likewise the pro-
gressiye urbanite is the one who sees
clearly that his interests are INSOFAR
ably bound up with those of his farm
er customer and who acts on that
knowledge. Among the great op-
portunities opening to both classes
alike none is more important, as tend
ing to increase acquaintance, mutual
understanding, friendship and conf
dence in business relations, than the
annual Institute. 1t is time for bus
mess men to exemplify their hospital
ity and for farmers to demonstrate
their prOgressiveness.

that when he began his political
career he stumped Nebraska against

He uttered all manner of harsh things

would be embarrassing. After the
campaign was over Bryan accepted an
invitation to make an address at
Omaha. He was somewhat disconcert-
ed when he saw the governor on the
platform, and dreaded meeting the
man whom he had so savagely de-
nounced. The chairman of the CON-

One of the results of the Louisiana
Purchase exposition to be held at st.
Louis in 1903 will be the clearing up
of an obscure point in American his
tory, reliting to the responsibility for
that Celebrated deal in real estate.
According To the popular impression
Jefferson is entitled to the credit for
the purchase Of the Louisiana terri
tory and the part PLAYED by Robert
r. Livingston is wholly lost sight of
except by students of history.
When Napoleon announced deter
mination to sell all the American ter
ritory he hal obtained from Spain,
MIR. Livingston, who was then our
minister 10 France, took him up with
out hesitation, negotiated for price
and terms and entered into an agree
ment for the purchase. This much
accomplished Livingston reported the
transactioa to Jefferson and asked for
a ratification of his ac.s and for
authority to raise the money. Jeffer-
son was frightened at the magnitude
OF the operation and at once took the
ground that there was no conStitu-
tional authority for such purchase.
His letters to friends in the senate urg-
ed them TO discountenance the PROPOSE
tiOn for the reason that it could not
be approved without any amendment
to the constit ution, a step which he
disfayored during his administration,
though he was not so fearful OF it
either before or after his occupancy
of the White House.
While Jefferson was arguing the
constitutional point and directing the
hostile policy of his intimate political
friends, Mr.. Livingston was compile
ting the bargain and the arrangements
to carry it through. He communica-
ted with the Earrings and negotiated
a loan of SIS, 0OO,0 900 the purchase
price, then sent personal letter to
the President setting forth the advan-
tages of the purchase and stating that
unless it could be ratified at once Ma
poleon would decline to proceed fur
Their and would make other arrange
mentS.
The timid and yacillating Jeffer-
son, upon the receipt of this letter,
dropped his constitutional objections
and wrote post haste to his senatorial
friends urging them to get together
and confirm the purchase without de-
lay and instructing them to say moth
ing about his former attitude. His
orders were obeyed and Louisiana
came under our flag The mar who
had the nerve, the foresight and the
breadth of mind to make that pur-
chase and to stay by it over the Presi-
dent IS objection was Robert R. Liv-
ngst0n, one of Americas greatest
statesmen, and to him belongs the
credit.
