A Clear Contrast

The Dover On. j. Index, in com
menting on our recent editorial in
which we said the late John NJ. Mccall,
+" of the New York Life Insurance Com
pany, was unfortunate in being exposed
and had done only what other apostles
of "National honor and sound money"
had done in contributing what did not
belong to them to the campaign funds,
said:
"And it has hit the nail right on the
head; but the end is not yet. In pass
ing it may not be amiss to say that the
Hon. William Jennings Bryan stands
out in a clear and more honorable light
before the people of the United States
today than these erstwhile insurance
pillars of high finance, many of whom
claimed to be Democrats, but who were
so conscientious and high-minded to
save the country from his election, yet
had no scruples to rob and plumber the
widows and the orphans interested in
said companies in order to help elect
his opponent. Mr.. Bryan is on a tour
of the world for a year, and wherever
he goes is gr~aciously received and well
coined; he is invited to make addresses
and has always a vast and attentive as
semblage of listeners. His letters from
the different countries visited are pub
lished in the leading newspapers, many
of which opposed his election, and are
models of good descriptive writing, with
note and comment valuable to students
of the times, and well illustrated. AS
the years come and go Mr.. Bryan will
be looked up to for his sturdy American
ism and honest, upright character,
while the insurance robbers, trust mag
mates and tariff barOns who have wax
ed fat and insolent on the peoples sub
stance will be held in open derision for
their unlawful acts or sent to prison as
they deserve to be-"

President Roosevelt submitted a mes

to by commissioners to settle the 30-year
controversy over the fishing rights with

THAT the consent of the Congress of
the United States is hereby given to the
said agreement and to each and every
article thereof; provided that nothing
therein shall be construed to impair or
in any manner affect any right or juris-
