PAUL KRUGER, formerly president
of the Transvaal republic, died Thurs
day of last week at Clarens, Switzer-
land. The old man had been failing
for several months. In fact, lie had
never been in good health since his
country, aftera most heroic resistance
to overwhelming numbers and unlim-
tied money, was stricken from the
map of nations. 1t is the general be-
lief that the old patriot died of i,
broken heart. The dispatches say
that his death caused profound sorrow
among the people of most of the coun-
tries Of Europe, and in the United
States the newspaper criticisms of his
life are almost universally friendly.
His name will live as long as civilized
men respect heroic acts: for it was
truly heroic to enter the lists Of war
fare With q few Thousand people
against one Of the mighty nations OF
the earth. !.

Mr. Bryan is still talking about
reorganization. The word con
jures up horrible visions to the
great Nebraskan. Conservative
democrats are thinking less about
the past dissensions and disasters
Of the party than about its unifca-
ton upon a winning platform,
based upon straight democratic
prIrciples. Mr. Bryan's funda-
meutai error is that he cannot con
ceive that anyone who differed with
him in the pas can be actuated by
pure and patriotic motives in seek
ing to put the party ~ a winning
condition. No doubt tslere are
some unregenerate boilers whose
hearts are corrupt and whose prin-
ciples ally them to the plutocratic
elements. Mr.. Bryan major
premise that all his opponents in
the past are Of this kind is cef-
tainly too sweeping. Let him be
generous enough to concede that a
man may differ with him and still
retain some Of the elements Of
manhood. Thousands Of demo
cratic voters who were Just as zeal
Gus as Afr. Bryan in support of the
issue upon which he fought. are
Just as uncompromising as Mr..
Bryan is their opposition to cor
porate influences. and they have no
intention Of allowing these inhuen-
oe to dominate the convention.
They see the way open however. to
a great democratic victory if de
mocrats viii unite upon a eandi-
date Of unquestioned democracy
and a platform that will command
the support Of all democrats. Mr.
Bryan can help them pick the mas
and write The platform, but he must
not assum e A monopoly Of the
wisdom and virtue ~ the party.

The comfort for the visitor to an

its close proximity to these scenes
Of gaiety and splendor, noise and
confusion, the Inside Inn offers a
