This talk about masses md classes"

As to the Democratic party, it is not one

il not so much So for it's strength is in
the Southern States, which never have

and new elements and new men have
come TO power; but neither the Southern
Democracy nor the Northern Democracy
is any more democratic save in name,
than the Republican party.
Just at present, Mr.. BRYAN and his
friends seem to be satisfied that the Re-

than the leaders that ruled and ruined

A Denial for Mr. Dubois.

In prosecuting his campaign against
the Mormon Church the Hon. FRED I.
DUBOIS of Idaho introduced in the United
States Senate last spring a resolution
calling for report from the Post Ofiice
Department giving the names of post
masters in Idaho who were living in
polygamy. The resolution was adopted
on April 20 II was referred by the
Postmaster General to his Fourth As
sstant J. l.. BRIsTow. Mr. BRIsTow
wrote promptly to Mr. DUBOIS, asking
him if he could supply any information
to the Department on which TO begin
its investigation.
Mr.. DUBOIS replied by calling on Mr.
BRIsTow and telling him complaints
had been made that Mrs. DORA CLEGG,
postmaster at Rexburg, Idaho was the
plural wife OF BEN f.. Rich. Several
other postmasters were suspected Of
polygamy. but the Rexburg official was
the first on the list, and Inspector NJ. c.
FosNEs was sent at once to find out the
facts in her case
Mr.. RICH, who is Mormon, was
heard from first He had been active
in supporting Mrs. CLEGG efforts to
obtain the office He wrote on May %
to Senator HEPBURN, saying that he
felt it his duty TO see that she does not
suffer on account OF statements made by
such human dogs as snapped their teeth
at her" Mr.. RICH added:

she recited her history, describing her
self as the widow of ISAAC W. CLRGd,

The Ring and the Reak

problem in the etiquette OF court
ship that is often admitted to the arbi-
tration Of the dispensers of wisdom in
the -womans column Of periodicals
has been recently decided rather
brusauely in an English court tits only
a police court decision, 20 be sure. where
even the judgment Of the House Of Lords
might not be accepted by the more i'm
portant portion Of the community, but
il settles the matter within It's jurisdic-
ton and has the merit of presenting the
question plainly, if somewhat brutally.
In securing the promise that she would
marry him from the object Of his afIec-
ton, London youth put on her finger
an engagement ring. In point Of fact.
he placed two before her to choose fro,a,
but as she was unable TO decide between
them, CALAMITY gave her both. This
opens up an interesting problem in
feminine psychology and the ethics Of
courtshp which must be passed over
as immaterial to the case in hand. After
obtaining the rings the young woman
exercised her privilege of changing her
mind and broke on the engagement,
