A DEpLORABLE AFFAIR

The Thaw- White TRAGEDY comes as
the result OF fast living and an i'll
Judged marriage between the son OF "a
millionaire and an actress. II is de
plorable in more ways thanone, but
particular so in that feature OF the
matter which must result in "A pro-
longed scandal being laid bare to
the sensation lovers. Every scene in
this tragedy-drmna from now on,
whether it affects the direct princi-
pals. Harry Thaw and Evelyn Mes
bit Thaw. his wife. or the dead man,
Stanford White, or the older
Mrs. Thaw or any of Thaw 5
American or English relatives, will
be exploited in II sensational way
by the "yellow journals" and will
furnish food and gossip for the SEN
sationalists and scandal mongers,
and their name is a legion in this
country just now. This may be
offset. however. in a measure by the
lesson to be learned from this affair,
and it may furnish a sanitary eX-
ample to other young men who
think that their only object on earth
is to spend the patrimony left by
their fathers, representing in most
instances years of hard work. The
tragedy is to be deplored and for the
sake OF all concerned it is to be
hoped that its pages will be closed
as soon as possible.

BRYAN AND THE DEMOCRACY

BRYAN AND THE DEMOCRACY
Just about the time the W j.
BRYAN boom for the Democratic
nomination for the presidency III
1905 seemed 10 be progressing
nicely. he seems to have thrown IA
bomb into the camp OF his admirers
by his declaration, cahled from
Europe. that trust monopoly Is not
to be regulated. but destroyed.
Most of the Democratic newspapers
which fought Bryan and rs 10 | in
1896 had begun to regard him a.
conservative. both ON account OF his
recent anti--ociali>tic doctrines and
in the light of themethods adopted by
Mr.. Roosevelt in handling important
national questions, and had Joined
in his boom for the nomination ~
1905. Since the declaration with
reference to destroying trust mo-
nopolies. however. some of these
newspapers have charged themselves
with having jumped at the conclu-
sion that Mr.. Bryan was full tledged
conservative too hurriedly. The
New York Times says that the
Nebraskan has chosen the wrong Is
sue again: that the trusts are al
ready smashed. that to fight them
in 1905 will be like FIGHTING the
ghosts OF dead things and "A base
imitation OF Roosevelt ut that. and
that Bryan opportunity is rather
to appear a. the friend and protector
OF distressed corporations. We have
said all along that the conservative
Democrats had better wait for the
BRYAN platform before committing
themselves. Ii they thought they
were going TO make platform for
him. then it must be said that they
have been singularly ignorant oil the
mans character as heretofore dis
played.
Trust busting is all right in its
place. but we are inclined to the
opinion that ii Mr.. Bryan wants the
Democratic nomination in 1905,
policy would suggest that he talk
less. Democrats, OF every degree
and many Republicans are clamor-
ing for tariff revision. 1t is the best
and only Democratic asset in sight
mt the present time. Mr. Bryan can
afford to talk tariff in a conserya-
tive way. but a. for the rest, if he
really wants the nomination, he
should let the combined wisdom OF
his party make the platfOrmtor him
