If the Czar, who. as l have invariably
pointed out il these columns, is SOW
ereign of the most generous instincts
and humanitarian impulses. is so ap-
parently slow to take action with re-
gard to Senator Plehve. it is because
he entertains a regard for the latter as
a man Of the most sturdy integrity. hon

at the time Of the assassination of

Vanderbilt in Politics.

SO many wealthy mea are now taking
up politics as a sort OF pastime It is
not surprising to learn that Alfred C.
Vanderbilt may have the horors OF office
conferred upon him. Mr.. Vanderbilt is,
however. becomlngly and Characteristic
ally modest in his ambitions. He pur-
poses to begin al the bottom of the po-
litical ladder and perhaps reach the top
by climbing slowly rung by rung. II is
reported that Mr.. Vanderbilt may be
elected to the presidency OF the town
council OF Portsmouth, r. J.. within the
limits Of which his beautiful country
home, Oakland Farm, is situated.
The Office is one without a salary at
tachment, but. OF course, Mr.. Vanderbilt
is not going into Office for the mere pc
cuniary reward, but rather from a sense
of public duty. and perhaps to crafty
sn ambition TO be addressed as your
honor" At any rate the vanderbilts
have planned big house warming at
Oakland Farm, and all the country pee
pie round about. the farmers and their
wives and children, the boys and their
sweethearts. rich and poor alike, have
been invited to met their wealthy towns

The townspeople are said TO be en-
thusiastio and earnest in their demand

dency of the city council. and OF course
II be does not desire to retain the fees
which in lieu of salary are paid to the
councilman, they are willing that he
should turn them over 10 his assistant
or secretary. who may do the work. or
to some public charity. Then, they say,
IL Mr.. Vanderbilt proves worthy public
servant. as they have no doubt he will
do. and ~ his appetite for Official hon
ors is not then stated. they may decide
to send him to the Legislature 20 repre-
sent the town OF Portsmouth. From the
Legislature Il would not be long step

of Mr.. Vanderbilt's political ambition.

MT. Bryan.
The One Trait in His Character Which
Makes Him Great.


We like the full name William
Jennings Bryan; it has a fullness, a
roundness, an emptiness of sound
that reminds one of its owner. Some
one has fiippantly said of Mr.. Bryan
that while he was a joiner and is q
carpenter he viii never be a cabinet
maker. He executed a rather crude
job of joinery in uniting the POpulist
and Democratic parties, and he is do
ing more carping at the merits and
achievements of others than his own
would seem to warrant, but cabinet
making is fine art as we'll as a prae-
teal one, and is out of the range of
his abilities as well as of his possibili-
ties.
Mr.. Bryan. however, Is great; nay,
he is more than great, he is 1nonumen-
tai We have long regarded him as
one of the expressions of elemental
force, and have classed him with the
waterspouts and whirlwinds that
gather strength and wreckage 10
themselves without doing any public
good beyond clearing the atmosphere.
He has cleared the atmosphere TO
some extent, and he has gathered
strength and dust to himself. and for
this we are duly thankful. But il
pains US to note that while he has
very properly Transmitted the gath
cred dust into improved barns and
blooded heifers the strength has all
settled IN his self -conceit.
Mr.. Bryan's eoneeit bears the same
ratio 10 the rest of his makeup as
the water in certain stocks and in the
human body bears to the more valua-
bic elements. 1t Is necessary to his
being, it is not only what makes him
go, but 1t is what has made him go
down with the Democratic party
without his inflated eonceit Mr.. Bry-
an would be as succulent as dried
snail and as appefizing as desiecated
watermelon. Itis in this one quality
of greatness that Mr.. Bryan towers
above the rest of the race in lonely
grandeur. A discredited leader, he
still marches in the van-a Presiden-
tial impossibility. He demands sub
scTiptions instead Of votes. Shut out
Of the barnyard, he barks at the la
borious OK that would feed at the
manger.
But of this man William Jennings
Brypp the papers have as much to
say as Of men whose accomplishments
are positive and whose achievements
are tangible. If he is dead political
"; why not leave him alone7 We are
unable to answer the query, but we
recall an ancient fable that runs as
follows:
A blatant ass annoyed & peaceful
community. The neighbors COM
planned to Its owner that they could
neither work by day nor sleep at
night because Of its incessant and ear
insulting bray The owner himself
became tired Of the monotonous
sound made by the ass and slew him,
but neglected TO remove the carcass
from the commons. Soon the people
again complained that by reason Of
the ass they could neither work nor
sleep. "Why, how Is this" said the
owner, "the ass is dead" To which
the people replied: "True, but he is
a greater offense to our nostrils now
than he formerly was TO our ears.
Pray remove the carcass"
