At new YORK

LONDON, Sept. g. MIR. Bryan has,
done what good many conservative
Democrats who met him In Europe
Just before he started for home fear
ad he would do. Several persons who
talked with him here told me they
rather expected him to make q bad
mess for himself and his party with
his Madison Square Garden address
The trouble. these persons said. seem
ed TO be that Mr.. Bryan had surround
ed himself with a body of Chicago
platform Democrats and would be
closely aud constantly associated with
them aud in daily and nightly com-
munion with them until he reached
New York.
There was no complaint from any
one that Mr.. Bryan had treated him
1iscourteous1y, but / could hear of no
conservative Democrat in whose mind
the Impression had not lodged that
Mr.. Bryan valued lightly advice from
the boilers Of 1896 and 1900. One
man. / remember, said:
Bryan needs governor. He ought
to be in the hands Of some shrewd,
hard-headed fellow who wouldn't hest.
tate to knock him about. What he is
now getting is indtscrlminate adula
ton. His little travelling cabinet has
clothed him with omnisctence and in
fa1libillty. 1t is making perfect dem
tgod Of him."
1t was quite in vain that Mr.. Bryan
was told there were not enough Demo
Gratis In the United States to make,
two piles. quite in vain that he was
urged not to declare for policies and
principles conservative Democrats
would not touch. 1t seemed as though
he had decided that 1t would pay him
to cater to the radicals OF his party
and let the conservatives whistle. I'm
fortunately, the Chicago platform gem
tlemen were too much absorbed in
their hero worship to see that Mr.. Bry.
an had gone wrong, and he failed to
get the blunt, friendly warming he so
much needed that he was heading
straight for disaster

Legal Gall.

When young Mr.. Hyde made his un-
fortunate attempt to GUST President Alex
ander from the Equitable Assurance con-
troll Mr.. Alexander had to employ some
lawyers to defend him; so he got Lawyer
Cohen and Lawyer Hornblower and
Lawyer Joline to do it.
When President Alexander finally
went out of the directorate of the COM
pany and gave up his presidency he left
the reform committee to settle with his
lawyers. The committee has recently
turned in its account, in which it says
thatrit settled with the three for $780,
600, thereby saving the policy-holders
of the Equitable 500, 000-the modest at
torneys for Mr.. Alexander having de-
manded S120, 900. Cohen and Horn
blower asked $50, ZOO and $4,000 re-
spectively, and were settled with by the
payment of S39, 1000 each, while Joline
wanted s25, 900 and got S22, 000..
THIS shows, dear children, that the
modest man gets more nearly what he
demands: even if he does not get so
much, as the hog.
What will puzzle the policy-holders to
understand is why they should be made
to pay for Alexander's lawyers, who
not only lost=their case, but were en-
ployed to keep Alexander and his crowd
of looters in control of the company. =

alive of Everybody's Magazine letter
calling from every government employee
all possible information touching the
conditions and operations at the Ishmus
of Panama for an article thereon.
Now Everybody's is the magazine of
all the bunch declared by the winners
to be dealer in muck, not to say a
simple raker thereof.
But the president wants the bars open
ed, that the public may have through
Everysbodys the fullest information as
to conditions at a point where official
muck has its best opportunity to ac-
cumulote. This is not saying that there
is muck there-rather to the contrary
but it is saying that the president
doesn't want muck there. And it is
strongly suggestive that the president
holds that the best way to avoid the
accumulation of muck is to have plenty
of rakes handled by exrert rakers.
This incident is of interest as it af-
fects the Interpretation popularity pleas
ed upon the president recent speech
on the subject of muck raking.
Doubtless he intended construction
as narrow as his exact words implied,
and likely he has given out his recent
letters as rebuke to the corporation
and political apologists for their attempt
to include all criticism and exposures as
muck raking.
Roosevelt may appear to be on the
switch occasionally, but close inspection
will find him on the main track.

cision go to the shipper, what would be
the result? The consumer would have
paid the excessive rate in reflected val
ues-t that is-it would have been ADDED
to the cost of the commodities affected.
and in the end the shipper would get
the rebate as an additional profit.
About the only interest provoked by
the Spooner amendent and its endorse
ment by some of the great dailies lies
in the fact that it shows that there are
in high places those who either do not
comprehend the situation at all or who
do not comprehend the fact that the
public understands the difference be-
tween low rate to the public and re
bate to the shipper.
The day of wonders has not passed.

Don't See Difference.

The Minneapolis Journal, in one of it's
space ii ling, editorials, appear to fav-
or the laid-s side Spooner amendment
to the rate bill, in which it proposed
that as cure 10 the ills of injunction
interruption, the railways shall deposit
or bonds equalling the difference be-
tween the railway rate and the commits
sion's rate, to be paid back to the ship
per in case the commissions rate is up
held by the courts. 1t is surprising to
the News that paper of the Mime
apolis Journals real or assumed great
ness should endorse actively or passively,
such proposition.
The Spooner amendment is narrow
one. 1t is a proposition that is not only
not calculated as preventive legislation,
but, further, doesn t meet the issue at
all.
Should such case arise and the de-
