 We were gliding through the twi light and the cfeeping mist away to- ward Clackan and the cottage there, in which Daniel was to prove himself before us all
 Daniel! How we'll we remembered him. How short a time it seemed since the days when he had sat among us in the school house there among the trees. And now he was back from college; and every one was proud of him, and we, his old playmates. were going to hear him preach the Word It was to be his first sermon in Clack- an. For three years we had not seen him
 We made goodly company. From far and near people had gathered to do Daniel honor. Clackan filled half the room; Gorteen gave its best and wisest.

Everywhere one saw familiar faces, stern and rugged, beaten with rain and wind-faces that in the morn ing had looked up at the minister from the pews in Derryvad, and now were turned upon the door watching for sight of Daniel. What if, in stead of Daniel, one wondered, they had seen the minister come in and sit by the table? Would they have welcomed him? Would he, coming suddenly, have seen something in them--a softness. cheerful repose- which to him was strange? Maybe so. Maybe

WHAT IS DEM0cRACYS

Recently the New York World in- vited Mr. Bryan to define in it's col umns, democrat. This MT. Bryan consented to do and did in an article of two or three columns. He really gave two answers. First, he defined a dem ocrat as one who considers himself member of the democratic organiza- tion and who works with that organi- zation and who expects to vote the democratic ticket In a broader and more philosophical sense, he defines democrat as one who believes in the rule of the people and who desires to make the government the instrument in the hands of the government to car ry out their will Undoubtedly, the latter definition is the one which might have been expected, or rather some other definition besides the first which has no more of the essentials of real definition than there are in any name.
 The World in commenting on Mir. Bryan's answer expresses dissatisfac- tion, and asks wherein is Roosevelt less democrat than Bryan or Secre- tary Taft less democrat than Senator Daniel, or Governor Hughes less a democrat than Mayor Mcclellan The truth is that in many respects they are practically the same and all the differ ence there is in them is the name We would not argue that there is no diff ference between republicans and dem ocrats, but in many respects lhere is no difference. Mir. Bryan in his re- cent speeches over the country is tell ing the truth when he says that Presi- dent Roosevelt and others are preach ing and practicing democratic doctrine from day to day, and John Temple Graves sees so little difference between them that he insists that they run on the same ticket
 If we were asked what the princi- pal difference between the Republi- can and Democratic parties are from the standpoint of their fundamental principals, we would undoubtedly an- swer that they are the differences be- tween state rights and federal control the difference between centralization and local government which traced to their origin in this country will go back to Hamilton and Jefferson. Times and conditions have changed in many respects but the same principles obtain The fact that so many republicans and democrats of today are advocating the same measures and the same princi-
 
 that, the people are from some cause coming to look at the questions of gov ernment alike. They are continually looking at these questions from the same standpoint in general way, yet differing in their own minds on many incidental questions. Such condition could, and may lead to revolution, re- organization or possibly to change in many of the principles of the two great parties, which principles have been regarded as fundamental.
 While MT. Bryan's answer is charac- teristic of him, yet it can not be said that it is what might have been ex-
