DELIGHTS TO INSULT THE SOUTH.
Bryan Calls Attention to RoOsevclt's
Lifting Negroes to Office.

Seymour, Ind, oct. 15.-William J.
Bryan delivered the eleventh speech
of the fourth day of his tour of In
diana before a large crowd in this
city tonight. In nearly every one OF
his speeches today Mr.. Bryan took oc-
caS;on to remark that he did not con-
slider either the national Democratic
platform or the candidate ideal, but
that they were sufficiently superior to
the opposition to call forth his ardent
support.
At Nashville Mr.. Bryan dWelt with
particular emphasis upon what he
termed the determination of the pres
ent administration to force the race
question upon the people.
you may never hear of the PreSi-
dent appointing a colored postmaster
i'm the North" he said. "but in the
South where the elevation of the black
man above his white brother is par
ticularly distaSteful there is where the
colored appointments are made.
Isn't it strange, my friends, that
the Republican party that came into
being through it's advocacy of the
declaration Oe freedom in our Consti-
tuition and that declared no black man
should be sold. is the party that
has crossed 1000 miles of sea to rob
a brown race of it's liberty and that
has purchased the people for some
thing like $3.50 a head"

Public PREPARED for the Worse.

The lack of official news, the un-
doubted checking Of General kurC-
patkins aggressive move and the enor-
NOUS Russian losses in men and guns,
compared with the optimistic reports
from Toxic all combine to prepare the
public for anything short of a total
.out of the Russians. Nevertheless.
the reports Of the newspaper CORE
spondents at the front, while admitting
the heavy losses of the Russian troops
and their retreat beyond the Shakhe
river, describe the soldiers as fighting
with undiminished ardor. The dis
patch even hints at extremely encour-
aging news from the eastern flank, but
counsels patience and official cOnfirlna-
ton before accepting it as true.
There is a noteworthy absence of
bitterness against General Kuropatkin
and the belief is prevalent that he was
compelled TO assume the offensive. a
majority of the people are inclined to
regard him as a victim of circum-
stances and all admire the sldllful
manner in which he again removed his
forces as soon as he realized the dan
ger of pressing the advance. The re-
port in order to cover the retreat finds
widespread Credence.

When Artemus Wards business man
ager once asked him about his Puri-
tanic origin he replied, 81 think we
came from Jerusalem, for my fathers
name was Levi, and we had a Moses
and a Nathan in the family, but my
poor brothers name was Cyrus, so
perhaps that makes us Persians."
When the humorist began his lecture
he would sometimes describe II by
saying, "One of the features OF my
entertainment Is that II contains so
many things that don't have anything
TO do with It," and In the middle OF
his lecture he would stop and say
Owing to a slight indisposition, we
will now have an intermission OF IF
teen minutes"
The audience would begin to feel
uncomfortable at the thought OF star

rubbing his hands. the lecturer would
continue, But, ah-T Will occupy the
