ALMOST UNANIMOUS
AGAINST FREE SILVER
Senators and Representatives il
Congress Regard Rcafirma-
ton Of Kansas City Plat
form as Entirely Out OF
Question-Mr. Bryan
Criticised BY Friends
for Course He Is
Pursuing.

From Our Regular Correspondent.]9
WAsHINGTOH;, y. c., jan 25.-Tlie
Democrats OF the Senate and House are
in exultant mood over the shape in which
the party is as concerns national issues.
A recent poll Of the Democratic mem-
bers Of the two houses of Congress shows
that of thirty-three senators, and one
hundred and seventy-eight representa-.
tives, only seven are favorable to re-
affirmation Of the Kansas City platform.
Some of the most ardent silver advocates
in the country are now opposed to tho
view taken by Mr.. Bryan that the party
should continue to stand for the free
coinage OF silver at the ratio Of sixteen
to one. Even Senator Tillman, who was
known from one end of the country to
the other as Mr.. Bryan's most trusted
friend in the advocacy OF free coiIluge.
says 1t is too late now to revive the
issue, and that Mr. Bryan should tako
back seat.
The poll, which was made by rcprs-
sentativcs Of the New York Herald. may
not be regarded as absolutely correct, but
II is believed to be fairly Indicative OF
the Views Of the senator's and represen-
tatives quoted. Senator Martin Is quoted
as saying that Mr.. Bryan was news
paper man who liked to SEQ his views
exploited in print, and that he had a
right to SO exploit them. The senator
said to-day that he never said anything
OF the kind, and had never talked with
any representative OF the Herald. How
ever, the interview expressed his senti-
ments as to the inadvlsabllity of tie
Democrats fighting the next campaign on
tho silver issue.
The Democrats OF the Senate and the
House who arc at all familiar with tho
circumstances OF Mr., Bryan's last visit
to washington some days ago are very
pronounced in their disposition to critt-
else him for his action in declaring that
the party should make silver the lead
ing issue this year. Hc.d did not, so far Is

River Highest for Years.

The Shiwassee isaway out of its banks
this morning and the water is said to be
higher than for years. in fact many of
the older citizens say it was never as
high before. Considerable damage has
alre eady been done to buildings along the
river bank and there is still great danger
OF more serious results The water has
backed up into the water works so that
the plant has been closed, leaving a
large part of the town without drinking
water. The central school has also been
closed on account of the lack of water
for sanitary purposes. If the field of ice
above the city gives way great fear is
expressedafor the safety of the Main
street bridge. The bridge on the county
line was taken out yesterday and por.
tion of the Dewey street foot bridge
early this morning.
AT noon the river was still higher ant
is constantly raising. The southwes
portion of the city is almost all unde,
water and it is impossible to reach som,
residences except by boats. The sam,
is true south of Comstock street anC

There is Ever a Song.
James whitcomb Rilcy.l

james Wh1tcomb Riley
There Is ever n song somewhere, my dear;
There is ever n something sings alway;
There's the song OF the lark when the skies
are clear,
And the song of the thrush when the skies are
gray.
The sunshine showers across the grain,
And the bluebird trills in the orchard tree;
And in and out, when the caves drip rain,
The swallows are twittering ceaselessly.
There is ever a song somewhere, my dear;
Tho the skies above be dark or fair;
There is ever song that our hearts may
hear
There is ever song in the world somewhere
There is ever song somewhere my dear,
In the midnight black or the midday blue;
The robin pipes when the sun is here,
The buds may blow and the fruit may grow,
And the cricket ehirrups the whole night
through.
And the autumn leaves drop crisp and sere
But whether the sun or the rain or the snow,
There is ever q song somewhere, my dear
