LONDON, July 4.-William j. Bryan
was the central figure at the annual
Independence day dinner of the Amer
lean Society in the Hotel Cecil to-
night. Nearly 500 members and guests
surrounded the society's board and
cheered the patriotic sentiments with
the peculiar zest born of exile. EN-
bassador Whitelaw Reid and Mr.. Bry-
an engaged in some sharp but good
natured raillery and banter over polit-
ical differences, the crowd evincing it's
enjoyment of the sport with cheers
and shouts of laughter
Following the passage between EN-
bassador Reid and Mr.. Bryan the lat
ter read his formal speech, as follows:
1 hope shall not be thought lacking
in patriotic spirit if. instead of draw
ing a picture of the past bright with
heroic deeds and unparalleled in pro-
gress, l summon you rather to a seri-
Gus consideration upon those nations
which aspire to premiership.

That no one liveth unto himself or

well as an individual application. Our
destinies are so interviewer that each

I take it for granted that our duty
to the so-called inferior races is not
discharged by merely feeding them in
times of famine or by contributing to
their temporary support when some
other calamity overtakes them A
much greater assistance is rendered
them when they are led to a more ele-
waited plane of thought and activity by
ideals which stimulate them to self
development. The improvement of the
people themselves should be the para
mount object in all intercourse with
the Orient.

Christian nations are at this time able
and in duty bound-to carry to the
rest of the world 1 may mention five:
Education, knowledge of the science Of
government, arbitration as a substitute
for war, appreciation of the dignity Of
labor and high conception of life.
No one questions that Japan's influ-
ence has been a benefieent one since
she has emerged from illiteracy and
endowed her people with public schools
open to all her boys and girls. The
transition from a position of obscurity
into world power was scarcely more
rapid than her transition from a men,
ace into an ally.
China is entering upon a similar ex-
perience, and 1 am confident that her
era of reform will make her not a
yellow peril, but a powerful co-laborer
in the international vineyard. In IN
dia, in the Philippines, in Egypt and
even in Turkey statistics show a grad
ual extension of education. and I trust
I will be pardoned if 1 say that neither
the armies, nor the navies, nor vet the
commerce of our nations have given us
so just a claim to the gratitude of the
people of Asia as have our school
teachers, sent, many of them, by pri-
Yate rather than by public funds.
The Christian nations must lead the
movement for the promotion of peace,
not only because they arN enlisted I'M
der the banner of the Prince of Peace,
but also because they have attained
such a degree of intelligence that they
can no longer take pride in a purely
physical victory. The belief that moral
questions can be settled by the she'd
ding of human blood is a relic of bar
barism; to doubt the dynamic power of
righteousness is infidelity to truth it.
self. That nation which is unwilling
to trust it's cause to the universal con-
science. or which shrinks from the pre-
sentation of it's claims before tribu-
nal where reason holds sway betrays
lack of faith in the soundness of its
position.
Our country has reason to congratu-
late itself upon the success of Presi-
dent Roosevelt in Fastening peace be-
tween Russia and Japan. Through him
our nation won moral victory more
glorious than a victory in war. King

I'm Hearen the Home. Larks Sing
I'm breathin' the breath o. the mead.
ows-Life's winter is on the wing,
An over the sea, my darlin'. I'm hear.
In the home-larks sing;
An the ships sail safe to harbor over
that selfsame sea,
Through night, an light o. the morn.
In bright, but never a ship for
me!
Oh, sad was the day l left you-when
! sailed from your side away;
You said your heart was breakin', an
mine seemed broke that day!
An'your eyes were red with weepln'
at the sight o. the cruel sea:
ut has never heart but to make
friends part--it's takin my own
from me!''
It's brave you were, my darlin', for
to let me go at ALL
For feel your tears on the heart o.
me, an they scald me as they fall!
But twas hearin' my love-breathed
promise that my heart with your
heart should be-
Twould fly to you as the gray gulls
fly, over the deep, broad sea!

Twas gold for you | was wantin'---
gold that's master an slave;
But what II the stars rain rubles, an
the gold CLEANS on loves grave?
Better where Poverty's dwellin' the
wealth OF a world to miss,
An your hand in mine, my darlin',
an the red O. your lips to kissl
