Upon which he can stand as the leader
OF the party in the next presidential
campaign. We believe our Charles
ton contemporary is well within the
mark when 1t says that dt would at

fort to placate all the factions ana
groups of Democrats, because II ne
should be "a mere conventional candi-
date his personality would promise no
more for Democratic success than Is
to be found among the statesmen OF
the common herd"
Aside from the advantage or Mr.
Bryan's strong personality, he is now
teaching some lessons in politics that
his party should know, and chief
among them Is that no party Is good
enough Or strong enough to keep as
controlling spirits dn its organization
men who are utterly at variance with
every principle of civic and political
honesty. Mr. Bryan has made 1t clear
that II he is to be the chosen leader
or the Democracy he does not want
these men to have place In Its coun-
ellis where they will have an oppor-
tUnity to betray the party, or endan-
ger its progress by hypocrisy and de-
ception. Whatever the Republican
newspapers and politicians may say OF
his attitude toward certain men and
public questions, the masses OF the
people recognize that Mr.. Bryan IL
standing out boldly for his convic-
tions and the purity of his party and
Is not afraid of what the consequences
may be to himself or his political for
tunes.
It appears that his speech at the
banquet of the Iroquois Club in Chica-
go has already accomplished some
good. We are told that it has served

executive committee of the Democratic
National Committee, which has been
controlled by such men as August Bel
mont, George f. Peabody, VIM. T..
Sheehan and Thomas r. Ryan, repre-
scented by his corporation man, Sena-
tor Martin of Virginia. The Democrat
ic party will lose nothing by getting

are the members of it. In order for
the Democratic party to have any
hopes OF success in the 1908 election.

who make use of its organization to

Deputy Republicans
In the South.

For a paper that no doubt considers
itself Democratic, the Mobile Regis
ter certainly takes rather peculiar
view of some recent political develop
ments In this country.
Men are known by the company
they keep. and this is especially true
of the intellectual company they
choose; and it must be said, that
when a paper ostensibly Democratic
has to climb over the fence into the
Republican pasture for forage, it's
Democracy is to say the least, open
to doubt.
Last Monday the Register bios
somed out in an extraordinary. edi-
torial, entitled "Mr. Shaw Rebukes
Mr.. Bryan" and, strange to say, has
nothing but praise for the radical
cabinet officer who is neglecting his
official duties for the sake of dabbling
in partisan politics under pretences
essentially false: and, on the other
hand, nothing but censure for the man
who is doing all in his power to in.
duce the people to reduce their
Democracy from theory to practice.
Things have indeed Come to a pref.
ty pass with US when a paper that
calls itself Democratic, must look to
a Republican Office holder for a club
with which to knock in the head the
acknowledged leader of the Demo.
cratic party.
In the course of this remarkable
and undemocratic editorial the Regis
ter coollly losses the following bou.
Quet at Secretary Shaw:
Mr.. Shaw gives our Democratic DO.
litical leaders severe rap when he
calls attention to their failure to
stand out in defense of their prin-
ciples. This explains why 1t is Re.
publican who first makes appeal to
the common sense of the American
people. He says that these leaders
have been content to express regret
that Mr.. Bryan should have declared
his advocacy of government owner.
ship! and that some have pronounced
it premature. They have shown
that they are not in agreement with
Mr.. Bryan, but not one has character
lied the scheme as it deserved to be
characterized. This duty has. been
left to be performed by Republican.
This indeed, Is reflection upon Dem
ocratic leadership.
This is but a specimen brick from
the fiimsy Republican edifice that the
Register has reared upon a shallow
Democratic foundation. But it is
enough to show that our Mobile con.
temporary is at heart in sympathy
with Republican ideals and aims, and
that it finds it necessary to look to
the opposition for its editorial thun.
der.
But the Register may rest assured
of one thing-attacks of this sort will
never injure Mr. Bryan one iota; and
that the more he is criticized by par
tisans of the Shaw type, the higher
he will stand in the estimation of all
Democrats, who are not afraid to face
the logical results of their party doc.

6oNAPARTE ON
THE "GENTLEMAN."
Atlanta Georgian.

Secretary Charles ]. Bonaparte, in
addressing the graduating class of
the United States Naval Academy at
Annapolis, undertook the difficult
task Of defining gentleman. He
pointed out to the young men who
are about TO go out into the world as
naval officers In the service of Uncle
Sam, that their calling was essential
ly the profession of gentleman"
For them it was legal duty that they
should behave as gentlemen and IL
they failed in that duty they were
subject to punishment as much so as
for dereliction In any other duty. He
said he had no hesitancy, not long
since in opposing the promtion of a
certain officer on the grounds that "he
had not the sentiments, habits and
manners of gentleman" and hence
was professionally disqualified" for
promotion. After utterances like
these 1t was clearly incumbent on him
to declare what, in his opinion, con-
stituted a gentleman, and he did not
shrink from the task. He said that
while to a great many people it meant
little or nothing, In the navy ''its es.
sential meaning Is that you and your
brother officers have duties beyond
the duties of others;> that you have
obligations that do not rest on all
members Of the community; that Of
you are required measure of self-con-
troll, readiness for self-sacrifice, q
sensitiveness In honor which it might
not be reasonable to expect nor
charitable to exact of all your fellow
citizens" Above all, they should be
known for such implicitly and truth,
such modesty of demeanor and such
purity of life" as would earn for them
the respect Of good men. There have
been many futile efforts to define a
gentleman, but on the whole it would
probably be impossible to succeed
better than Secretary Bonaparte has
done Snobs and tOadies have an
idea that ut takes three generations
to make gentleman" This is mere
ly the superficial view which finds
colOring from the ideas of the her.
AIDS college. Possibly it does require
three descents to bring some men and
some families up to the standard of
culture and polish which is involved
in the idea of gentility. But there
are thousands of exceptions even to
this heraldic idea. There have been
men, thousands of them, who &C
quired all the savoir faire and culture
and charm of manner which courts
could bestow without any of the an.
cestral advantages ordinarily asso-
ciated with such gentility. Few of
the celebrated tops and beaux of the
world have really been gentlemen"
by descent. On the other hand, 1t is
almost trite to say that there have
been men with blood as rich as that
of all the Towards in their veins who,
nonetheless, could never acquire even
the outward form and seeming of
gentlemen. The grand old gardener
and his wife," of whom Tennyson
wrote, could very well "smile at their
claims Of long descent" In short the
man who conducts himself in all the
relations of life in such a manner as
to earn the respect of good men" will
come very near living up to the ideal
Of true gentility, and for all practical
purposes 1t would not be necessary to
go farther for standard.

to roll it loosely from one end, smooth

We reproduce the following item from
recent issue of the Battle Greek Enquirer:
"Rev. Clarence f. Hoag, new pastor
of the Maple Street NJ. L. church, who
recently assumed his duties, promises
we'll to become one of the leading pastors
of the city. Thus far at least, the con-
gregation is exceptionally pleased. The
new pastor is we'll known throughout
Michigan, having lectured under the
management of the Central Lyceum
bureau i'll over 100 towns of the state.
He comes from a successful pastorate i'll
Alma and already is well into the work
of this rapidly growing Maple street
chnrch. AS a speaker Mr.. Hoag has
fine presence, an excellent voice, good
imagination and large amount of what
is called personal magnetism. He speaks
with a directness and earnestness that are
exceedingly persuasive.
Rev. Hoag left Alma in September
after most successful pastorate in this
city. His many friends rejoice in his
prosperity, and assure the citizens of the
pure food town that Maple Street church
has for It's pastor one of the eustlers of
the Michigan conference.
