hothing less than triumph for Bryan.

they began to move toward the door.
The hotel man was in an agony. He
began cutting down his extra charges
about franc a minute. But with
loud whOop from me concerning franc
and a half per candle, the tourists all
started for the door. The landlord in
. husky whisper wiped off the charge

DR.. Richard T. Gottheil of Columbia
University, has broad knowledge of
oriental tales, and proverbs. One day
he told an old Persian story about a
pessimisticn &4rn.er. Good friend
visitor said to the farmer, you are
fortunate this year." He pointed to
the heavy and rich grain fields spread
ing as far as the eye could see. You
can't grumble," he went on, about
your crop this season, eh?" mo"
whined the pessimist but a crop like
this is terrible wearing on the soil"
Mrs. John Ridgway of Paris, was
noted for her ready wit AT one of her
receptions, apropos OF marriage, Guy de
Maupassant said: The honeymoon
ends when the wife first asks the hus-
band for money No" Mrs. Ridg-
way retorted; lit ends when the hus-
band ceases to ask the wife how much
he can have the pleasure of giving her."

Results of a Saner Fourth.

The movement for the suppression
of the more Objectionable features Of
the celebration of the Glorious Fourth
made surprisingly good Roadway, this
year, as is seen in the greatly reduced
number of accidents which marred that
holiday. Last year the figures. as COL
lected by the Chicago Tribune, show
ed that as were killed: 3341 injured
and property destroyed to the value Of
over s25O.OOO. as direct result of care
lessness in the use of fireworks and ex-
plOsives. This year the returns gath
cred during the week following the
great holiday, showed 25 killed; 1874
injured and property loss of s177,S00.
To be sure the returns are not all in,
but they are sufficiently complete to
make it certain that there is a gratify-
ing decrease in the number of acct
dents. in comparison with last years
total. and it is equally certain that this
decrease is due to the determined
course taken by the authorities of
many cities and towns restricting the
celebration to safe and sane methods.
The humane work so well begun
must be kept up, and it is none too
soon to begin to plan for still great
err reduction in the total of accidents
next year. There is every reason why
Independence day should be looked for
ward to as the greatest and most pleas
ant day in the American calendar. in
stead of a day positively dreaded by
the great masses of the people and
whose observance kills scores and
mains thousands Of young people every
year. tr

"Where Johnnie Is"

Ever since John went away

Who was John? He was our boy

So. when he was gone. l say,

And 60 to put out the light,
She'd say: LET me look once more >.
To find where John sleeps tonight.
BY and by she seemed to fail
Couldn't think what 1t might be,
But her cheeks grew waxen pale
Where the roses use 10 be.
But she never suffered SO ,.,
That she couldn't find Johns place
And her eyes-how they would glow
When his marches she would trace.
Then. one day. the telegraph ,,,
Came tina; our boy John was-dead!

What | thought when that reau.
Mebbe 1t was wrong to DO,
But to mother Well, heu,
Told her John was almost through
With the war, and then she CRED.
Late one night heard her say:
Bring the map. | want to see
Where our Johnnie was today
Then she looked so strange at me
And picked up the map like this
But her eyes looked on, and on
And she cried out: .There he is
Then dropped back and whispered

This old map-I keep it here
Smudged and tattered up this way.
And that blot? That is tear
Markin' where John was one day.
That is where our Johnnie tell.

Somehow the Democracy cannot get
over the sting of those words uttered
by Bryan in his famous valedictory ad-
dress after the telegram from Judge
Parker had been received: st may be
a manly thing" said Mr.. Bryan, for
Judge Parker to express his opinion
before the convention adjourns. but it
would have been much manlier to have
expressed: 1t before the convention
met" But undoubtedly. If Judge
Parker had spoken before the conven-
ton met, the nomination would never
have been given him, and he. or at
least his masters, David, B. Hill and
August Belmont, well understood the
situation. 90 ~

who say that as whole the people

confirmed by the capacity for political
suicide shown by the leaders of the
Democratic party. That party had a
fighting chance had it come out un-
equivocally for honest money, but it
has shown it still stands for the de-
basement of our circulating medium
and the destruction of business inter-

The Ex. Robber Wants a Job,

The lodging of the money question
by the Democratic platform reminds
the New York Tribune Of story.
There was a man, once, who was twice
convicted of embezzlement. After he
had served his second term i'm Jail. he
bobbed up serenely at the same bank
he had robbed, with an application for
reinstatement as cashier. He present
ed testimonials showing that he had
been vaccinated and had paid his poll
tax. The question of my pecuniary
honesty" he said, lis not regarded BY
me as an issue in these negotiations
and only pertinent issues were men,
toned in my testimonials"
The Tribune does not draw the moral
but the reader has no serious trouble III
concluding that the bank official prob
ably insisted that the honesty of the
man was a very vital issue in the ne
gotiations. And so it is with the DEM
ocratic party. this year. 1t dwells at
length in it's platform upon such vital
issues" as the Monroe doctrine. the
question of trial by jury. the separa-
ton of church and state, the open
door in China, the Improvement of in
terror waterways and the reclamation
of arid lands-matters upon which all
parties agree and which are in no sense
political or partisan in their bearing
but fails absolutely to touch upon the
great question of the nations financial
integrity. This is just like the re-
leased embezzler, who brought a vacci-
nation certificate as his only testimon-
ial in seeking the position as cashier
of the bank he had robbed.
1t is utter nonsense for the Democ-
racy to assert that only campaign is
sues are mentioned in the platform"
and that 1.-The question of monetary
standard is not regarded by us as a
possible issue in the campaign" If
that question was not regarded as a
possible issue. why did the committee
on the platform spend 16 hours in
wrangling over the plank. whose omis-
sion, as urged by the Bryanites. was
finally conceded by the eastern Demo-
Gratis in order that the bargain might
be carried out by which Judge Parker
was to be nominated?
In 1896 and again in 1900. the Demo-
cratic party formally declared that the
money question was paramount to all
others, that it was unalterably oppos-
ed to monometalism. and that it de-
manded the unlimited coinage of free
silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. This is
the record and this the creed Of the
Democratic party down to the present
time. and by deliberately and purpose
~ failing to say anything more upon
the subject in it's latest platform. the
party leaves that record and that creed
unchanged.
