Beam in His Own Eye
(Record- Herald.)

In the current issue of the Commoner
diatribe against the trusts, which are,
he argues. undermining the very gov
eminent itself to satisfy their greed.
THE public conscience" he says,
has been stupefied by commercialism
until the grOssest offenses against lib
erty and good government do not
awaken the protes that ought to be
made against even trivial departures
from the path Of rectitude."
1t is not defending the trusts to point
out that Mr. Bryan's words come with
poor grace from his mouth when he
puts the emphasis on avarice and greed
and trivial departures from the path
in an enterprise which other people
are tempted to characterize in Ian
guage akin to his own.
Here are the facts as they appear
from court proceedings. Philo S. Ben
nett. friend of Mr.. Bryan's and an
enthusiast for free silver. decided to
leave Mr.. Bryan $4,000 by will to pro-
mote the work for the cause. Mr..
Bryan. although a beneficiary, drew up
the will himself. Had he phrased the
beQuest in direct terms all might have
been smooth sailing. Instead he chose
the indirect form of secret letter, not
formally part of the will, which speci-
fed what use was to be made of the
money, and from the text of this letter
it now appears the money was to go to
Mr.. Bryan's heirs in the event Of his
own death. Mr.. Bryan eagerly pushes
his claim in the courts, and now that
the letter has been held to be no legal
part Of the will he is carrying an APP
peal to the higher courts.
Mr.. Bryan's right to seek for the
payment of the bequest will not be
questioned by anyone-not even by
those who most clearly feel the indeli-
cacy Of his drawing such will him.

PARKER, NOT CLEVELAND

Singular reports are coming out OF
WASHINGTON, New York and other
eastern places the last week or ten
days, to the effect that the movement
for Judge Parker is merely screen
for the purpose of making Cleveland
the democratic nominee; that Parker is
used merely as a rallying point for
those who wish to defeat Hearst and
get complete hold of the convention,
and that after assurance Of these
things is established, Cleveland will be
.strenuously pushed to the front.
1t is difficult to give credit to such
reports, although there is no doubt that
Washington is rife with such talk, and
1t is difficult to see how such pur-
pose if it had been originally held.

grouping Of powerful democratic
forces around Judge Parker recently
was largely impulsive. The Hearst
movement seemed ominous and point

Tra1nmen pass rigid examination

color-blind. 1t is fortunate that ad-
mission to no profession or occupa-
ton Is conditioned on our being free
from Observation-Disclosures. Years ago
Lowell wrote two lines in the 'BiR.
low Papers" which made a certain
young disciple OF the poet blush at her
own ignorance.
Red cedars blossom, tn, though few folks
know it,
An look all dipt in sunshine like a poet.
Sure enough, red cedars do blossom
every spring! In the inimitable "Cran-
ford" Mr.. Holbrook bursts forth to his
guests: Nov what color are ash
buds in March? What color are they,
l say" I'm sure l don't know, SIR"
said the visitor. Il knew you didn't.
NO more did IAN old fool that l am!
till this young Mr.. Tennyson comes
and tells me. Black as ash-buds In
March. And I've lived all my life in
the country. More shame for me not
to know! Black; they are jet-black,
madam" 1t would be easy to add
other instances to prove that half the
world Is beauty-blind. How MANY
Of us know that shadows on the snow
