SAMJONES ON CLEVELAND.


The inimitab1e Sam Jones, for
whom we have so often ex-
pressed admiration, with whom
we have so often agreed and so
seldom differed, said the most
beautiful things-has written
the loyeliest prose poem we have
seen in many a day. It was
about our friends-Cleveland and
Bryan.
This is what Sam said:
Mr.. Bryan seems to be an old
OK in the gap with long horns.
He went let any cows out or any
calves in. He says the present
situation is comedy and if
Cleveland is nominated by the
Democrats it will be a tragedy.
He might have added that if he
was renominated it would be a
farce. And Mr.. Bryan thinks or
intinates that the adoption of the
Kansas City platform by the
coming Democratic national cam
paign is the thing to do. How
eyer much he may be cheered by
Populists and followed by fools,
the great brain of his party will
swing like pendulum between
laugh and a contempt. That
Kansas City platform has every
plank the Populist party had in
their platform. The truth of
the business is, the two last
Democratic national conventions
stole the last plank the Pops had
in their platform out, and left the
old Pops sitting on the ground,
and they have been sitting on
the ground ever since. The
truth Of the business is, the
Kansas City platform put the
Populists out of business.
IF the Democratic party shall
nominate man of their choice
Bryan will knife him to the core.
If candidate is nominated on
the Democratic platform as an
nounced in Kansas City he won't
need any knitting to do him up
he is done up already. The
truth of the business is, the
Democrats will never get into
national politics again until they
eliminate every Populistic, fool
ish plank from their platform
from the free and unlimited COIN
age of silver, 16 to 1, down, and
stand on Jeffersonian and Jack
sonian principles; and then some
future day they can get into
power, but there is no chance
now with Bryan playing the old
long-horn OK in the gap.
I think Mr.. Bryan is perfect
ly sincere. 1 believe he is pri-
vately clean. believe he is an
honest, upright man. But a man
may be an honest fool; a man
may be harmless idiot; a man
may be pure nonenity. Mr..
Bryan is neither of these but
every fellow is some sort of
fool, and that he is fool about
some things the wisest men of
this country are already agreed"

ratify the treaty with the Republic
OF Columbia for the construction Of an
isthmian canal The vote for ratilica-

announced. 50 that only the senators
themselves and a few confidential EN-
ploycs were present All the senator's
announced themselves as gratified to
have the long struggle terminated. but
none OF them manifested their appre-

could be much more speedily disposed

who expressed the opinion that more
