IN OUR OWN COUNTRY.

All sorts Of things, wise and fool.
ish are being said about Bryan. A
week ago, Sept. 18th be had a great
reception in Louisville, nj which
Henry Waterson was one OF the
speakers. Ia Mr.. Bryan's speech
there. he said that he believed in
government ownership OF railroads
just as strongly as when he landed
in New York, but that whether that
should he plank in the next nation
al Democratic platform was TO be
determined only by the democrats OF
the country. And in saying this
Bryan was sensible. He did not re-
treat an inch, nor did he promise 10
be Democaiic candidate II the plat
form does not suit him fairly well -
and we do not believe he will BY the
time the platform is 10 be made, the
Democrats will know pretty we'll what
Bryan believes, ard will either agree
with him for the most part, and
nominate him almost with one voice,
or disagree with him and try 10 find
some one else for their candidate.

bus, o., September Ia, was a sad
disgrace for that city, but the same
thing would have happened under
similar circumstances in any city in
our country. Our big crowds are
mobs and need TO be taught to be
gentlemen aud ladies'. And our po-
licemen have no idea Of the handling
Of crowds compared with what they
need to have. In London, whenever
there is reason to expect large
crowd, the most careful precautions
are taken to prevent panics and acct
dents aud TO keep any part Of the
crowd from getting beyond control
Of the police. The crowds are taken
care of and they have learned TO be
good natured and orderly.

The survival Of antipathy to certain
foods was found among people as
highly civilized as the Egyptians, the.
Greeks and the Romans. Quite list
Of animals whose flesh was forbidden
might be drawn up. For example, in
old Egypt the sheep could not be eaten
in Thebes, nor the goat in Mendes, nor
the cat I'm BubaStis, nor the crocodile
at Ombos. nor the rat, which was sa-
cred to Ra, the sun god. However. the
people Of one place had no scruples
about eating the forbidden food of an
other place, and this often led to re-
ligiOus disputes and bad blood.

see something before we get expelled.
Unfortunately the chancellor caught
my meaning.

watched by the police, but some at

will be our spies. We have. telephones

you have seen, but also what you your

smiled grimly. Our village police are
