TALK SENSE OR SHUT UP.
Advice Given to MIR. Bryan by n SOUTH
ern Democratic Paper.
Atlanta Constitution.

Mr.. Bryan has appeared once more, this
time In Ohio, as a dealer in Democratic
doctrines as he sees them and in denun-
Citations as he believes they should be di-
rected. The report of his performance on
this latest occasion is not pleasant reading
for those Democrats who are hoping for the
peace and prosperity OF the party
The Constitution has always. since Mr.
Bryan became the leader of the party in
1885, hsld him in esteem for his sincerity
OF opinions. directness of speech and de-
votion to popular principles of government.
While differing from him as 10 some of his
eccentricities and methods. we have not AFT
any time derided him or treated him with
disrespect. But we are prepared now 10
say that Mr.. Bryan is going somewhat too
far In his attitude OF violence TO those with
whom he does not agree. The Democra tic
camp has had enough trouble without being
anlicted with raging Thersites who can
not distinguish between the advantage of
securing party harmony and the self-satis-
faction or asgravating old wounds and en-
mites
The Constitution does not regard Mr.
Cleveland as a party exemplar any more
highly than does Mr.. Bryan. But what
Is the use OF believing at and berating Mr.
Cleveland! He Is, so far as candidacy and
party policy are concerned. as dead as any
duck he ever shot In the Carolina marshes.
The only satisfaction we can imagine com
Ing TO Mr.. Bryan in these anti-Cleyeland
blasts Is that the Dutchman desired when
he jumped up and down on his already
dead dog-"just TO teach him there Is pun
ishment after DEATH"
There is one supreme debt that Mr.. BRYAN
owes To the Democratic party and which he
should be generous and humble enough 10
pay in full He should either talk sense
when be talks politics-or quiet down and
60 home. He Is not now helping the party
TO get together. to throw overheard any
Jonuhs. 10 establish a new alignment of the
forces OF popular rights and TO win a cam
paign against the party of unwise. unfair
and unconstitutional government. III he will
not push, he should not pull backward
The Democrats In 1904 will not have
Cleveland for candidate or warwick
Neither will IL have Bryan for candidate
or canerlengo. II viii be pleased TO have
both working in the ranks and exhibiting
a iusty rivalry as 10 which can do most
for Democratic victory. Otherwise the
name OF the one will be Flotsam and OF the
ether Jetsam.

Care of the Poor In Morgan County.

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:
The Morgan County Infirmary is located
a mile east of Martinsville. 1t is beauti-
full tract of land, well under cultivation. I
saw a dozen or so huge ricks of hay, some
clover, some timothy, and some a mixture
Of the two. The fields are clear Of stones
and stumps and by no means overrun with
weeds. The present incumbent is Mr..
Rinker who took charge in March last. The
original design of the building was good
and the house ought always to have been a
good home for the poor. The rooms are
well warmed and abundantly lighted, and
by their lofty proportions the best ventila-
ton can be had / noticed in particular
that every room I was in smelt clean and
sweet. Outside it is just as nice There
are large beds of flowers and the lawn
mower was everywhere in evidence Shade
trees are plentiful and means of recreation
for the inmates convenient. Mr.. Blair. one
of the County Commissioners told me that
when the barn was burned the advisory
board promptly granted an allowance of
500 to rebuild; that he himself worked as
carpenter twenty-three days on the new
structure. The new barn is handsome and
commodious, and all the property is in good
condition. They will in the spring build a
concrete walk six feet wide from the gate
TO the porch. Mr.. Rinker told me he has
instructions TO give the inmates all they can
eat and make them comfortable. W. S. s.

Mr.. Boyd's Proficiency Recognized.

Mr.. Boyd's Proficiency Recognized.
George w. Boyd, general passenger agent
of the Pennsylvania lines east of Pittsburg.
has just passed his fifty-ffth birthday. He
was born in Indianapolis Aug. /, 1s4S. Since
June. 1872. Mr.. Boyd has been in the service
of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Previous to
in rairoading at Indianapolis, his birth
place. with the Cleveland, Columbus, Gin
cinnati & Indianapolis Railroad. He worked
in the freight department. When he went
to the Pennsylvania it was as cashier in the
passenger department. Two years later in
1874. he became chief clerk and continued
in that position until January, 1882. The Of
fee of assistant general passenger agent
being then created. he was appointed to fill
it. On the recent application OF the pas
senger department to meet the growth of
the business of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Mr.. Boyd, on June !, was promoted to gen.
eral passenger agent. vice J. r. Wood. who
became passenger traffic manager.
In commenting on his railroad career the
New York Commercial says: He is known
as the father of the personally conducted
tour system, which, under his capable direc-
ton. has reached great perfection, as man.
aged by tho Pennsylvania Railroad through
a special department. Gradually this plan,
instituted Dy the pennsylvania, under the
more or less direct personal management
of Mr. Boyd. Is being adopted by other rail-
road companies.
las one result of the personally conduct
ed tours for the general public the Penn
sylvania Railroad has been called upon to
arrange almost every important special tour
that has been made through the United
States by distinguished passengers in the
last ten years. When President Roosevelt
wanted to make his recent tour the passen-
ger department of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road arranged the itinerary and managed
ii. So also with the Prince Henry tour, the
Mckinley funeral train, the Lii Hung Chang
tour and many others. To all of these Mr.
Boyd gave his personal attention and in the
majority he has gone along himself to see
that nothing went wrong and no hitch &C.
CURED that human care and foresight could
prevent.
1T is in this way partly that Mr.. Boyd
gained his wide acquaintance with eminent
and distinguished men. His grace, tact,
easy courtesy, engaging manners intelli-
gent conversation and readiness as racon-
teur have combined to make him most
agreeable and intelligent host on these tours
with the worlds great. To all Mr.. Boyd is
gracious and polite, and always ready to
extend any proper courtesy. AT the same
time he never f0rgets the interests OF the
company that he serves and for which he
is ever jealous. His loyalty to the Pennsyl-
vania and his pride in its success and de-
velopment are imbued in his thought and
life"

Such is the description of the article of
personal property which John Papka, 10
Clarke street Is trying to replevin from AL
phonse Heuer 99S Fifth street. In suit
brought before Justice A. c. Runkel. The
array of legal talent which is fighting the
battle for the possession OF the robin would
do credit to a case where much greater in
terests are at stake, and an interesting
fight is promised when the case comes to
trial.
Papka once owned robin which he SAYS

the bird was stolen. Some time later he dis
covered that a bird of this appearance was

When You Build Your House.
Good Housekeeping.

Many architects urge their clients where
they can afford it, to build of brick rather
than wood The cost of brick is relatively
less to-day than it used to be. Wood shrinks,
and swells. and burns. Wood has to be
painted, and grows shabby with time.
Brick takes on a better tone and texture
with time; does not shrink and swell. and
won't burn. Vines will grow on the brick
wall; repairs are less; insurance rates are
less; the brick house is cooler in summer
and much more economically heated in win
ter and built with a hollow wall il is en-
tirely free from dampness. The cost OF a
brick over a wooden house is 10 to Is per
cent, as a general thing. But the differ
ence is made UP in smaller bills for coal
and paint.
