SENATOR DANIEL and
THE PEERLESS ONE
THE VIRGINIA STATESMAN SAYS

RICHMOND, Va, Nov. 29.-united
States Senator John w. Daniel Of
L%ynchburg. arrived In the city last
night, and is the guest of James N.
Boyd West Grace street, for several
days. The senator is still a bit weak
from an attack OF grip and neuralgia.
He Is in the city on n matter Of legal
business in connection with the Uni.
ted states Circuit Court of Appeals.
Senator Daniel was shown a story
printed in the Washington papers re,
garding an alleged clash between him.
self and William Jennings Bryan in
the lobby OF the Hotel Willard. He
read the report carefully. expressing
some surprise that a pleasant meeting
had been converted into an apparent
cstrangement. He denied that any
bitterness had been shown IN his con-
yersation with the Ncbraskan. Asked
regarding the occurrence the Senator
replied:
81 did not know that I had had a
sharp passage at arms with Colonel
Bryan. This is the first intimation
have had OF such n thing. There was
some little pleasant badinage between
US about some points about which We
differ, the tilt growing out Of the lon,
acquaintance and easy terms on which
we regard each other. have time an

more than 100 times for him. Our per.

though differences exist between LID
on several important questions. /
certainly had no idea that the brief
talk between Colonel Bryan and my.
self was anything more than q per.
sonal interview between gentlemen.
The discussion occurred while the car.
riage was at the door and I was near
the exit to take the train for Rich.

Senator without the least hesitation,

Senator Daniel refused to express
any opinion as to who would be TIL,

presidency. He left the impression,
however, that there is something of a

Nj. Rryan,s Weakness.

An Omaha editor asserts that Bryan
is weaker than he was in 1896 and
1900. The weakness must be con.
fined to his legs, then, for his lungs

WHAT SOCIETY OWES ITSELF.


We Americans cannot afford to take
on the full measure of mercurial, nerve
racking attributes usually ascribed to
French. We are moving in that direc-
tion rapidly and becoming nation of
nervous invalids with all admissible
speed, but we are still in possession of
a reserve of practical, wholesome, sem
sible initiative, that may, at last, re-
deem us from the universal slump, and
save us from derogation. But it goes
withor saying that we are far too
ready to take up with odd impressions
and social attitudes and give rein to
feelings and forces not quite rational nor
inherently natural Among these isms
Is an aptitude for such things as "brain-
storms" the "dementia Americana" and
other phantasmal ideas that seem to
suit us for the moment; when as a mat
ter of fact they are utterly foreign, and
generally repugnant to the common
sense we inherited from our practical
grandsires. We seem to lend ourselves
quickly to new and strange hypothesis,
with all apparent faith, but we do not,
actually; we simply tolerate them and
give them run until our senses return
and then we promptly repudiate them
and view and treat things normally
again. In this relation, for instance, we
have given certain license and recogni-
tion to the fallacy of justifable homicide
and when a crime of the sort is wrought
in revenge for the gross attack upon
the immediate family; it has gone over
the whole country since the tendency of
the Thaw trial, and has been largely
responsible for the access of crime al
legged to be due primarily to that doc
trine. But we are coming to our senses
3 gain, and have recognized the tremen-
dous danger of cultivating such a creed.
We knew, when the idea was first given
place in the reasoning of
The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1907-07-07

the nation, that 1t was wrong and dan
gerous and quite impossible OF real ae-
ceptance, but it was momentari& pepa-
lar and was suffered to pass us account
ing for the real impulse to crime. Now
We know il is made rather the excuse
for, than justification OF, the numherless
kilGngs that have accentuated the fool

We owe it to society to repudiate the
doctrine so many are willing to employ

STRICTLY A HOME MATTER.

The dispatch OF magnificent fleet OF
war vessels from the Atlantic To the
Pacific, 20 strong, under the command
of Fighting Bob" Evans, is no part OF
q war program. but may be so taken by
whomsoeyer hates America deeply
enough to put that particular eonstrue-
tion upon it.
For our part it seems but tardc
tribute to neglected seaboard, long
taxed to build these superb engines OF
conflict, and as long denied the benefit
and comfort of their actual presence;
for there will be plenty of the ships
that western eyes have never beheld,
save in the pictured form presented by
the current magazines. And beside, it
will be concession to the business in
terests of this coast, to which but little
in the way of federal patronage, along
this line, has ever been conceded.
The people of the whole coast will be
gratifed to have the fleet out here and
to know something of the resources of
our government in this important rela-
tion and our pride will be duly hattered
by the exposition; all Of which is part
and parcel of the obligation of a fra
ternal. paternal and popular govern
ment.
1t will be, also. an interesting demon
stration for our friends, the Japanese,
the Chinese the Russians, and all the
peoples of the Eastern Pacific marge,
and a suggestion to all hands, that we
are in the business of taking care OF
ourselves, and not likely to forfeit an
opportunity furnished us to that end;
though, of course, the coming of the
Armada has no such significance, unless
it shall be wilfully assumed and traded
upon. an issue that we should regret
exceedingly, but perhaps, fraction less,
that those who shall have the unwisdom
and bad grace to so elect.
