follows; God never meant that
n man should control all Of the
oil aud all OF the steel of this
country; that the man of ten tall
cnts should crush out the onc-tnl-
ent man. And the tcn-talcnt men
are throwing away their chances.
God gave genius so that every
man, woman and child should
benefit by il. lie never meant that
there should be great monopolics
of those things which are ncccs-

The SUBSTITUTE.

The Times Republican calls the at
tention of its readers to the serial story
begun in today's issue, The Substi-
tute," by Will n. Harden, the author OF
"Ahner Daniel" the North Walk Mys-
terry, and other fiction that has met a
pleased and appreciatiye reception from
the fiction reading public "The Sub
stitute' is the best production of the
gifted southern author and is presented
10 the critical clientele of the T.-R.
with full confidence in its capacity to
please and delight.
1t is not a great story as stories 60
There is in 1t none of the overstrained
modern novel deals so largely. 1t is
simple and wholesomely human, fresh
in plot and original in motive, a picture
of real life in Georgia told with a racy
vigor and knowledge of the life and
character portrayed that make the
quaint folk that move thru its pages
seem like real people. The reader
makes personal acquaintance with
George Buckley. the Hillyer's and
Hanks, game old Bias Truitt Lydia
Cranston and the other characters who
go to make up the personnel of the
north Georgia village and Mr.. Harben's
story A Georgia governor figures in
the tale, at whose personality readers
will guess more or less accurately.
Read THE Substitute" 1t is worth
while. 1t is far better than Mr.. Har-
oen's much lauded "Abner Daniel" Cut
t out and paste It in scrapbook. You
will want to read 1t over.

BRyAN,s LAST STAND.

William Jennings Bryan came from
the st. Louis convention bereft of the
crown of leadership won at Chicago
in 90. and defended for eight years.
He came away in the gloom of defeat
thrust outside the inner councils OF
democracy by the Vaccinations of
pave Hill and the machine Still Bry
an in defeat was greater than Hill ever
was or can be in victory. A peanut
shell may stop a dynamo.
Now that the tumult is still and the
cigar smoke has drifted away the one
figure that stands tall and clean cut
above others in the democratic con-
yention is that of w. j. Bryan. Head
ed by the pack he turned at bay like
a lordly stag, and whenever he turn
ed the circle of ASSISTANTS widened.
When he spoke the clamor ceased. At
the head of forlorn hope he checked
the march of an army with banners
and forced terms not of capitulation
plished, not in open war, but by
strategy that many will call treach-
cry. Bryan's sincerity. intellectual
capacity and marvellous magnetism
never shone more clearly than when
he turned to die IN the last ditch at
St Louis. Like Custer at the Big
Horn. or the Greeks at Thermopylae.
he faced the ringed forces of his foes
without thought of surrender, and
made the bitter magMticence of his
downfall overshadow its pathos.

bosses to Dave Hill, but he won two

guence and personality, and forced a

JUDGE pARKER's ATTITUDE.
fNew York Tribune.

Judge Alton b. Parker's refusal to
stand for the presidency on platform
which ignores the money question and
leaves in binding force as democratic
doctrine the free silver coinage planks
of 1896 and 1900 does signal credit
to the firmness and courage of his
public character. Judge Parker is
widely respected In this state for the
conspicuous ability he has shown IN
politics and on the bench and for the
purity and integrity of his private life.
Every man who knows him esteems
him. The republicans of New York
have nothing but good words to say
about him in his private capacity and
in his judicial activities. His mes
sage therefore. to the convention,
which. misled by the unfounded assur-
aneas of his representatives at st.
Louis, offered him a nomination on
terms offensive to his self-respect. will
surprise no one familiar with Judge
Parker's honorable achievements and
honorable record. Perceiving that the
delegates who nominated him had
been hoodwinked by the men intrusted
with his canvass, he frankly tele-
graphed his most trusted lieutenant on
the spot, the Hon. William f. Sheehan,

that it should be laid before the con-
