THE JEST OF A GEORGIAN.

This praise of John Temple Graves and criticism of his late Chattanooga speech by the St. Louis Republic is so good we give it bodily:
 John Temple Graves, the silver tongued orator of Georgia, has a fetching way of saying things that

set people to talking for a while. His wit is not drawn from memory, but bubbles fresh and sparkling from an imagination which makes him one of the most winning of our afterdinner speakers.
 "Mr. Graves says clever things and says them with effect. In the rivalry of compliment and of courtesy which attended President Roosevelts tour of Georgia and the Carolinas, the president was constrained to cry quits" and ad- init that he was beaten in the game when Mir. Graves spoke of him as the foremost grandson of Georgia.
 "Mr. Graves compliment to the president was very much less artistic when at a banquet in Chat tanooga Wednesday night, he pro- posed that the Democratic party's glorious record of struggle for the vital principles of American gov ernment be thrown upon the ash heap and that MT. Roosevelt's name be presented as candidate for nominaton in the Democratic national convention of next year.
 "Of course MT. Graves did not expect to be taken seriously. Meteoric afterdinner speakers sell dom look for that. But the soul of wit is logic as we'll as brevity, and the weakness of Mir. Graves wit on this occasion was that there was neither logic nor reason in it.
 sFollowing his eloquent tribute to the high purposes, heroic advo- cacies, splendid enthusiasm and de- votion to the principle of the Dem- ocratic party, MT. Graves sugges- tion that all these principles and aspirations be committed to the keeping of one who spurns them is little the least logical or rational thing that he has ever said or dOne
 'The Georgia orator loses faith in the eternal verites of this world 1 in his conclusion that Democracy S brave endeavor must fall back in froth and foam forever But for l the unyielding fight made by the | Democracy of the United States, | during more than century, for their contention that the founders of our government mapped out the only safe road for it to pursue, this country would today be more like Russia than like what is it.
 MT. Graves Chattanooga speech Will be seven days marvel, and then it will be forgotten. Demo- cratic warfare for perpetuation of constitutional government in Wash ington, and for the integrity of the state governments with all the rights reserved to them, will go steadily forward to ultimate vic tory It's standard-bearers will not halt to listen to the witty contradic- tions of any follower who begins 1 to have a tired feeling"
