From the Ohio State Journal
Colonel Bryan Is master Of English.

them with rare skin. His speeches are
within the comprehension of the untu-
tored. and that is the real test OF popular
oratory. Like other great public speak
crs. Colonel Bryan is a close student Of
the Bible, and from It takes many OF the
figures OF speech which he has used with
such effect since he has been a figure Of
national prominence. In his address IN
an Ohio town the other day, Colonel
Bryan pointed TO the story OF Solomon.

pointment will be keen, but like men
who have entered fair contest, they
viii submit with good grace and claim
the man who has been elected as their

gives Roosevelt 314 votes with 27S con-
ceded TO Parker. We do not think this

The Democrats have almost ceased &c

STRENUOUS AT the ENp.

THE apathy which certain persons
i professed to have discovered early
in the campaign disappeared a week or
two ago. and these last days have been
strenuous enough for any taste.
Both President Roosevelt and Judge
Parker entered into the contest with
an apparent determination 60 hold aloof
from the tumult OF active contest, each
determined to preserve his dignity. In
deed Judge Parker went so far as to
direct the writers OF the Democratic
campaign book not to uttack the prosl-
dent personally IN that compilation.
But alas for good resolutionsl The
Judge became aggressive, got "all het
up" and sailed into Mr.. Cortelyou in
a manner which reflected severely on
the President. Now Mr.. Roosevelt has
touch OF hghting blood in his veins.
and he chafed under these structures
for a few days, and then he struck
from the shoulder SO the calm dignity
Of the candidates broke down after all.
And nobody is worried because these
leaders Of the respective parties show
that they are composed Of flesh and
blood, and that they are not mere bit.
OF statuary created for ornamental pur.
poses.
Ii is all over now but the shouting,
and consequently Republican lungs orc
likely to be exercised. But we pledge
ourselves whatever happens TO keep
serene; to accept Victory with smile
that contains no suspicion Of Insult,
and should 1t by any possibility mean
defeat. to perk up and assume an at
t.tude that win accept no Insult
For greater than the Republican
party ans greater than the Democrats
party is the American government, un-
der which our fathers lived. under
which We live and under which our
children shall live after us. Victory is
sweet and defeat is bitter. but the rules
Of the game say that honest verdlcts
shall not be protested.

it seems to us that this project which

have been watching the papers
since the decision Of the judges in the
Halloween parade to see II there would
be any protest against the decis on for
the best marching club. The judges
may or may not know anything about
marching but It is the general opinion
that the West End boys were clearly
entitled to the prize as they were the
only organization that did any march,
ing. The Eagles marched in columns
without any attempt to manoeuver.
while the West End boys were con-
stantly changing their formation and
making these changes In such manner
as TO elicit applause from those who
saw them. The West End boys were
not masked, but this fact should not be
taken into consideration as the prize
was for the best marching club. and
the boys did the best marching. ] as
an old soldier would Hike to see these
organizations parade on Market street
from Fifth TO Ninth so that Il could
be seen which can march the best.
These judges may know about a boat
a sci VI or q newspaper, but they dc
not know how to Judge a marchinf
club. The next time we have a parad,
and the organizations are to be pudgeC
FOR their marching ability let as hav,
