Vim. ]. Bryan.

No man before the American peo-
pie has won greater applause
aud more general admiration than
has the twice defeated. democratic
candidate for the presidency-Wil-
liam Jennings Bryan in his conduct
during the present national cam
palgn. Standing before the dele
gates'to the democratic convention
in St'Louis Mr.. Bryan uttered these
memorable words: Eight years
ago a democrtic convention placed
in my hands the standard of the
party and gave me the commission
as its candidate. Four years later
that commission was renewed. /
come tonight to this democratic
convention to return the commits
sion and to say that you may dis
pute whether l fought a good fight,
you may dispute whether | finished
my course, but you cannot deny
that 1 have kept the faith" These
were grand words from a grand
man, and now as the great cam
paign is nearing its close, no man
can yet say that William Jennings
Bryan has not kept the faith, Eve
ry word uttered was warm with pa
triotism and every sentiment that
of loyalty to his party and devotion
to principle. So lofty has been the
plane upon which his fight for de-
mocracy has been made that be
has disarmed his biterest foes whe
are forced to admit his integrity of
purpose, his unselfish devotion to
principle and his transcendent abil
ity, The campaign Of Mr.. Bryan
has brought CONSERVATION to the
republican party wherever he has
been. No speaker a draw the
crowds like he can. The most gift
ed of the opposing side cannot hold
them spell bound and sway them
at will as Mr.. Bryan. What eff
feet his campaign will have on the
fnal result as far as votes count
cannot now be told, but close to
the hearts of the American people
w. j. Bryan will find an abiding
place.

Bad for Strikes.

The precipitate ending OF the strike
Of tho employees Of the state railroads
In Hungary is instructive. II was eff
fected by the simple and perfectly ma
turai expedient OF the government in
ordering all the employees OF the roads
who are members of the reserves or
liable 20 military duty TO join their
respective regiments. The command
10 the strikers TO don their uniforms,
fail in line, and become available for
duty In suppressIng themselves was
probably unexpected, but II did not ad-
init OF the kind of discussion which In
this country follows the call of the
states upon trades union miIitIamen
20 assist in preserving the peace and
protecting life and property.
Just this must happen here, how
ever. II the railroad system of the
United States passes from private to
public control under any plan Of social
Istlc reorganization, says the New York
Times. In that event, In a strike OF
those employed we should witness
something akin to a conflict OF the peo-
pie with themselves. The authority Of
the state In the control and operation
of its own property and in the service
OF it's own people must remain supreme.
TO question and oppose It would be
anarchy; effectively to resist It would
Nbe revolution.
Ut will gradually dawn upon those
identified with the labor agitation that
trades unionism and socialism are
movements tending In dlametrlcally OPP
poaIte directions. Some OF them are
shrewd enough to see this already, but
It will probably be long time before
they succeed In making 1t clear to their
following, When they do, 1t is not Inn
possible that we shall find the social
lists hiving by themselves ana wholly
out Of sympathy with the plan and
purpose Of organized labor to prevent
any extension OF the scheme Of govern
ment ownership and operation Of pub
lie utilities,--New York Commercial.

Are hosiery pockets for women "a
supplant the dainty purse or reticulei
Hoslers who have made long study
of woman's needs for pockets have
lntoduced under the gulse of st. Louis
fair souvenirs O big variety of womens
stockings with pockets knitted near the
top.
AS q rule the pockets are done in
bright colored silk, the designs being
the stars and stripes, crossed flags or
st. Louis fair inscriptions on pink or
red silk. The pockets are three and
-quarter inches broad and are
made ostenslbly for the safeguarding
Of railroad tickets.
Hoslers gravely announce that the
new creations are the forerunners Of a
modified pocket stocking, which win be
fastened or buttoned. and is destined to
contain the money or trinkets which a
lady carries about with her.
These manufacturers, who are ac-
customed to study the needs Of women
In wearing apparel, even prophesy that
skirts viii be made eventually with
apertures so as to render the pocket
easy of access.
The importers admit that neither
they nor anybody else can venture to
say how capriclous woman will regard
them. She may prefer the discomforts
of searching through nun for car
fare, or continue to worry about the
contents Of a chain purse on shopping

RUSSELL sAeE's ARGUMENT
AGAINST TAKING VACATIONS
san FrnncIsco Bulletin.

Russell Sage hardly makes out his
ease when he says: 'Ts It not absurd
TO suppose that man who can work
ii and half months cannot as well
work the whole year? Is It not equally
absurd to suppose that man can in
Two weeks recuperate from the wear
md tear Of a years work, IL there be
Auch wear and tear? On the contrary,
have too often observed that men
plll, while on their vacations, make
nroads upon their vitality and purses
that cannot be repaired in the follow
Ing II months and two weeks"
The conclusion to which Mr.. Sage's
argument leads is not that men do not
need vacations but that they need
more than a fortnight's vacation in the
gear.

Btrenuously and do not take sufficient
recreation. And the people who take
