Two Men in the White House.

Apt parallels and differences might be
found between the Monroe Era OF Good
Feeling and the Roosevelt Era of Feeling
Good The relation between the Sec
tons is kindlier than it has been within
living memory. The wrinkled front OF
political asperity has been smoothed
strangely The Republicans and tho
Democrats are as brothers 1t is a time
Of truce and sweetness, a love feast.
The only hate. aside from the uni
versal conventional hatred of the trusts
which hate themselves, doubtless
must be between the Democratic re
organizers and the great Organized
bulk of the Democracy. Perhaps 1t is
exaggeration to call this a hate. The
"reorganizers' have disappeared. The
BRYAN Democrats are so glad because
ROOSEVELT was elected that they can
afford to forgive the builders OF the
house Of bunco at st. Louis. Can man
be ungrateful to those who have given
him the chance to say, for four years at
least Il told you So?
So it was pleasant for Mr.. BRYAN to
call at the White House Saturday.
He likes the architecture and situation
of that building He has no objection to
being there himself. And it is pleasant
for everybody TO see Mr.. ROOSEVELT
and Mr. BRYAN hobnobbing. Mr. RoosE-
VETS rod seems TO have swallowed Mr..
BRYANs: but the latter doesn't com
plain. They are both genuine popular
leaders. in their way Each may be said
not only TO be greater than his party,
but to be his party. Mr. ROOSEVELT,
however, has won much or most Of his
popular support and displayed his
original and consummate political talent
while doing the work. usually so fruitful
in enmities, OF an administration. VIII
Mr.. BRYAN, the man of eloquence, ever
get chance to figure as a man of action,
and would he be successful in that role?
Even JEFFERsoN's executive talent has
been attacked, and the Nebraska JET

supposing the country converted to
socialism.
Grant that the country is soaked in So
cialism, and posterity bonded irredeem-
ably to buy the railroads. How about the
employees? They can strike no more.
They will be in the nature of soldiers
and sailors. The Government, which,
on account Of it's duty Of transporting
the mails. is the enemy most feared by
the engineer of great railroad strikes
will as owner and master, be at all
points a wall against the strikers.
We express here no opinion as to the
merits Of the plan for rate court as

In a speech at Boston, Friday. the Hon

Mutations,

The chief trouble that VIC discern in
our philosophic scrutiny of Col BRYAN
Is that he is too conservative. But a
few years since and Col BRYAN was the
limit of radicalism and the very ideal OF
unrest.
Things have changed wondrously
even marvellously. But we do not say
that Col BRYAN has changed at all.

BEWARE OF CONTINENTS FOR
 CATARRH THAT CONTAIN
 MERCURY
 As mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous surfaces. Such articles should never be used except on pre- scriptions from reputable physi- clans, as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufact- ured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, To- ledo, O., contains no mercury, and is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mu- cous surfaces of the system. In buying Halls Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally and made in To- ledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co.
