Heath on TullOCh.

An interesting contribution to the
Post Office scandals literature has been
made by the Hon. PERRY S. HEATH of
tab, First Assistant Postmaster-Gen-
cral under CHARLES EMORY SMITH In
a letter to Postmaster-General PAYNE,
made public in Washington yesterday,
Mr.. HEATH makes answer, in general
terms, to certain charges made against
him by SEYMOUR W. TULLoCH, formerly
an employee of the Post Office Depart

Mr.. HEATH's letter is that which makes
public, in definite terms. for the first
time, we believe, some pertinent facts in
Mr. TuLLoCH's personal history.

Bryan Himself Replies to Mr.. Mack

This is the remarkable comment of
Mr.. WILLIAM j. BRYAN, in his Commoner,
upon the wel-meant efforts of MIR. NOR
MAN f. MACK to find common ground IN
the same platform for siSteen-to-one and

Mr.. MACK Is laying up a large store OF dlsap-
polntment II he thinks that there will ever be har-
mony between the men who think as Mr., tLEvh
LAND does and the men who believe earnestly in
the platforms OF 1890 and 1900. Harmony between
these elements is absolutely impossible, because
their sympathlcs their asp rations, their purposes

but In the interest dscord and disaster to try TO

Perhaps this is more valuable as an
indication Of Mr. BRYANs personal spirit
and attitude at the present time than as
philosophy or prophecy.
Unity and harmony will come again in
the Democratic party just as soon as
common sense grasps the idea that an
issue which has ceased to be question
of practical politics is not a matter TO
bother greatly about in framing a plat
form. In the presence of common
opportunity and a common hope all the
