Mr.. BRYAN in London.

Mr. Rrvan's hearers last night were dis
annointcd because he read his speech. They
had a good right to be disappointed-and
probably were-because of the nature OF
the delverance. The sentiments expressed
were all right, but they added nothing TO
the force of the text which Mr.. Bryan had
found in Kipling. Indeed, the stanza quoted
conveyed it all. Kipling is an artist in eX-
1resslon. ard leaves little If anything for
a follower He is likewise a traveller. and
has enjoyed large opportunities of apprais-
ing from personal observation just what
the white mans burden is. Mr.. Bryan has
been travelling through the east with Kip
ling in his mind but has made no new dis
coveries Our guide, as his, is kipling,
and we shall do well to ponder our bur-
den from the English poets view OF It,
In the preliminary banter with Mr.
Whiteaw Reid. Mr.. Bryan said something
of far more practical interest to his coun-
tryruen than in his formal talk. The SUD-
stance Of that was that he is still for the
double standard in money, and considers
that we'll as we have done with gold OF
recent years we should have done even
better with gold and silver. He. still holds
TO the Chicago platform on the money is
sue and will not agree that anything that
has happened these past ten years has told
adversely as respects the contentious ne
put forward on the money issue in his first
race for the presidency.
In a statement made to a number OF
newspaper correspondents Mr. Bryan spoke
words of equal interest on the subjects OF
municipal ownership and the control OF
railroad properties On those issues he
stands with Mr.. Hearst, although more SEN
sitive than the latter as to the popular DEN
milton of the policy. Mr.. Hearst does not
shy at the word socialist. Mr. Bryan does,
He rejects it. and is at pains TO give MS
own definition of socialism. But the two
men are working on the same lines and to
the same ends.

Bryan has not changed. Nor have they
changed really as respects him TerroriZed

his destruction and in their great neces-
sty are trying to put a new complexion on

Last year In Virginia Mr.. Martin. who
was a candidate to succeed himself in the
Senate, was assaiied by his opponent as
being but a mere department runner. "
What had he done. it was asked, to show
that he had any comprehension of the great
national issues? What had he done to adj
vance any of those issues? Mr.. Martin, an
experienced politician and very shrewd
man. accepted his opponents character
ization smilingiy and with thanks, admit
ted that he had been running the de-
partments on the hunt OF whatever his
constituents wanted. and pledged himself
to continue to do so II reelected. He was
reelected by large majority. The de-
partment runner easily defeated the man
who had made his race in the clouds.
1t takes man of practical views and adj

there is an important local side to his com
mission in Congress. Everybody works
there. including father. The pork barrel
is not all. but II is much, and the ablest
man in the body cannot afford to neglect
his platter when division time comes. And
the larger the slice he obtains the better 1t
proves for him when his constituents are
asked to pass upon his usefulness.

The Ultimate Result.

When independence Day is past
And DER the streets you gaze,
You find the fiuttering remnants cast
Unheeded DER the ways.
Though great the glitter and the roar
Wrought by continuance deft,
Now that the celebrations Ger,
Waste papers all that's left!
More serious enterprises may
Come to a fate like this,
The oratorical display
or statesmen whom we miss,
Those arguments In grand array,
Those words OF thoughtful heft,
Are printed and then filed away;

Summer Suicides.
From the Columbus tohlol Dispatch

From the Columbus (ohio} Dispatch.
The torrid heat of midsummer seems to
suggest suicide to some natures. 1t adds
discomfort to some who are already dis
tressed and thus provides just the addi-
tonal impetus necessary to carry the dis
tracted over the lines of sane conduct
Cases of the kind are already finding theic
way into the news, and there Is every in
dication that the summer is to furnish its
full quota of persons who destroy them
selves. Suicide is no remedy 1t is a leap
into the dark, cowardly, wicked aban-
donment of life with all it's possibilities for
good. 1t shows the need among men OF
more helpfulness. charity and cheer.

Died in Carlisle. Ark. on the evening of Sept. 2 1906, Inez. the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. l. Bogard, aged } years and months. How feeble are words to carry consolation to hearts bereft of @ darling child. No one can fl her place in the vacant chain, no one will take her place in your hearts. Her sweet voice will be heard no more in our home, except as it may finger in memory, but in Heaven she will sing with the redeemed in a nobl- CT sweeter song Inez was a bright winsome child, winning the hearts of all who knew her. This was the close of @ beautiful young life. It was like a gleam of sunshine on a cloudy day - short but bright. To the fond parents we will say, weep not though your little family is brolx
 ,en. You can go to her and it is such sweet consolation to know that your loved one now reclines on the great loving bosom of Jesus, who redeemed her and washed her in his own precious b.S6d.

 Second-What price should the grower receive for his cotton einned and delivered at his near est shipping points,

 Fourth-What assurance will the other planters give that they will hold their cotton until they can get the farmers price fer 1t?
 Fifth-Describe any organized effort now under way in your county whereby farmers hope to have some say about marketing their cotton and some influence in fixing it's price, getting ad yances on it, construction of local farmers warehouses, etc. Let every planter in the south answer the above questions by number as briefly or fully as he will.

PLANS TO BUY
LEAGUE TROPHY
Managers Met Last Night to
Arrange Details Slave
SI35 to Spend.

At the special meeting of the Fac
tory baseball league managers held
last night, at 1852 Smith street, the
time was taken up in discussing the
idea of buying the trophy and having
it placed on exhibition in one of the
local show windows.
In all, the league has the sum of
$135, with which to purchase a cup.
This money was contributed by the
local newspapers and merchants and
citizens, and it will buy a handsome
cup. 1t was decided by the managers
that a representative from the EVE
MING NEWS and one from the
Chronicle act with the present tro-
ply committee, which is composed of
AL. De Leon, of the American Smelt-
ing & Refining Works, Alderman
Emil Warter, of the Raritan Copper
Works, and Mr.. Walker, of the c..
Pardee Works.
The newspaper representatives are
to act for the merchants. This mat
ter was discussed by the league men,
bers at some length. 1t was agreed
bhot Nv liz ClIdLlS SHOuIu nave reD-
r~esentatives for the generous man
ner in which they came forward with
contributions to make possible the
buying of a trophy. Selecting the
newspaper men was finally agreed as
the best way to solve the question as
to whom to appoint as representa-
tives of the merchants and citizens.
The committee is to be notified by
the secretary of the league when
they are to get together. They will
look over a number of designs for
cups, and when they have decided
upon one, they will have it made.
When the trophy is received it will be
placed on exhibition in the show win
dow of Barnekov & PETE, the State
street druggists.
The trophy, as told in the NEWS,
must be won by one team for three
straight seasons before any team can
lay claim to it. This now gives the
league something to work for during
the next three years.
