but says he was sick and had to go away to escape becoming a nervous wreck, and says The Journal lies when we say he ever left his paper in the hands of Republican. How about George Taylor! Ask any man in Newport who keeps tab on the political situation and see if he does not tell you that Taylor was a dyed in-the- wool Republican. Just 8 few summers ago Taylor was left at the helm during a red hot battle, while Waterman spent some two months touring the North, and his paper wouldn't publish a line bearing upon the political situation except at so much per. That's the staunch Democrat Waterman is.
 But Waterman has the political itch again now, and when that breaks out on him, living, as he does, in a Democratic county. he gathers up the office towel, and with great gobs of joy in his heart (and hungry longing for pie) he wipes out the past and be- comes the greatest living Demo- crat.

OUR FRIEND WATERMAN

We'll, we'll. Were you ever puked on by buzzard, or did you ever come in contact with the business end of one of those dirty little animals whose perfume would make wooden Indian sick at the stomach?
 We never had either of these happen to us, but we have experi- enced something a good deal worse we've had Equivicator Charlatan Waterman, the pusillanimous pus- tule on the shin bone of per6dy, who edits the Newport Democrat, unload upon us some of the vile thoughts of his putrid mind.
 So far as Waterman's politics is concerned, that is matter that we care absolutely nothing about we grant every man the right to think and act as he pleases-but the trouble with Waterman is that he is not capable of persuing a line of thought long enough to have any political stability about him. When the political sea is calm and serene, with a fine breeze just right, and indications of pie ahead, he straightway lets out his belt 8 few notches, discards his old hat for a bigger one, and at once becomes h e greatest Democrat that ever happened; he shouts his Democracy from the hilltops and throws great gobs of eloquence and immense bououets at himself; he offers himself as sacrifice for some fat ofice-and the people throw goose eggs and dog fennel at him.
 But how is 1t when his party needs his assistance on the field of battle? Why, he straightway be comes nervous wreck, turns his paper over to Republican, packs his grip and goes to some health resort and lives like the son of a millionaire, when just a short time before not a paper house in the country would ship him a little bundle of print paper without putt ting c. o.

But Alice, nothing daunted amid the kindly BAN
ter of her friends, sauntered off basket arm, to-
ward the beautiful view she to transfer to
paper-later on, to canvas, to be hung no telling
where. She had not decided what art gallery
should have its "claim allowed"
Now Alice young, as the context implies,

to know this. or if she did. to care,-so absorbed
she in her talent as she construed talent, and
the prosecution of art, as she interpreted art.
Alice had much to learn and she took that very
day lesson in one neglected branch of her educa-
tion.
She hunted out a fine vantage point for the view

lent itself kindly to her efforts doing good service
as both chair and easel.
She was soon adjusted in her atelier, alternate
ly suuinting at the view and transferring the
suit of her squint to the paper. She did much
erasing and left much unerased that might have
received similar treatment In fact If she had been
very strict, there would have been only few lines
and curves left-her sketch would have been much
like the play of Hamlet with Hamlet left out"
But she had as much faith in her talent and
pencil as the knights of old had in their courage
and keen blades, and so worked away resolutely,
only now and then stopping to sigh over the lack
of versimilitude in her trees to their prototypes
and the wlfulness of the waterfall under her fin
gers-its absolute refusal to pour over the rocks
she made as naturally as did the other over the
ones in it's path.
She turned around on hearing footsteps. "Ah,

Charities Act. Elected to the House of Commons
in the year 1880, Mr.. Bryce was Chancellor of the
Duchy Of Lancaster under Gladstone, and after
wards president of the Board of Trade. In 1880
he was Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs.
Politically, again like Bryan and Tilman, he
was reformer and stood for the abolition OF
university tests, universal copyrights, for teach
ing university for London; and he succeeded in
having passed the International Copyright Act,
and the new Law of Guardianship in 1oo6.
OF the immense service O.. Mr. Bryce as Regius
Professor of Civil Law at Oxford the world at
large knows but little; AMI it is chiefly among
the alumni of that institution that honor is given
to his name. Among scholars that honor is high;
and not excelled by his fame as an author
The Holy Roman Empire was published in
1864; and this magnificent work pictures forth
graphically the continuity of the empire during
the middle ages, and until the times of Napoleon.
The work is delight to scholars; and of itself
would have served to establish the fame of it's
author.
The American Commonwealth, however, which
appeared in 1883, is the work which has endeared
Mr. Bryce to Americans This great book is a
profound and friendly analysis of the institutions
of country, without reading which the educa-
tion of no American lawyer cultured gentleman
is complete. In common with Professor D1cey,
Mr. Bryce profoundly appreciates the tremendous
influence exercised by the ordinary courts OF JUS
tice in the upbuilding of the free institutions of
America and England; and he speaks of our
Supreme Court "the living voice of the Con-
stitution," well-merited eulogium which 1t would
be well to regard, perhaps, in these days or exc
cutive impatience Of criticism. 1t will not be
quite amiss for us to remember that 1t was by
the courts and not by the efforts of politicians,
howsoever vehement as reformers, that the
dying principles of that 'rule of law" which is at
the very base of institutions was builded
and that this was accomplished in the halls of
justice in the ordinary of litigation before
the ordinary tribunals; and in the main, at suit
of private men.
Mr.. Bryce is also the author of Trans Caucasa
and Ararat, which appeared in 1877, and Two Cen
turtles of Irish History, which was published in
1888; but his enduring fame author and pub
licst will depend upon his greater works. The

wealth.
Even in his selection of title for the latter
work, James Bryce was more fortunate than are
some of our modern university and college pro-
fessors, who seem anxious to fasten the term
Commonwealth" upon the States of the Union,
whereas it is scientifically more accurate to use
that term as Bryce has used it-in reference to
the American Union rather than as applied to
the states which comprise it,
Our people universally feel that King Edward
in honoring James Bryce by sending him to us as
Ambassador, has honored equally, by sending
us true and tried friend.

The Appointment Of
a District ATTORNEY.

The appointment of District Attor-
tney w b Sheppard to the federal
bench will make necessary the APP
.pointment of man to the district at
dorneyship for the northern district
of Florida
Judge Sheppards appointment has
been a very popular one with Repub-
licans and Democrats alike all over
the district, and if the president
makes as wise = selection in the APP
pointment of a district attorney he, as
we'll as the people of the district, will
be fortunate indeed.
Several Republicans have been men,
toned as candidates for the position,
Reese, is receiving a large endorse
ment from both people and bar as the
proper man for the place
If the Republican le.acers can reach
any agreement upon any one Republi-
can candidate in the district, it is
quite likely that Republican will re-
'ceive the appointment. There is, how
ever, a scarcity of available Republi-
can timber in the district, and upon
what does exist here it is possible
! that no agreement among the Repub-
ilican leaders themselves can be
reached.
Under these circumstances the ap-
/ pointment of a Democrat is not i'm
iprobable, nor would it be inconsistent
with the firm policy which President
Roosevelt has. established for elinldn-
ating partisan considerations from
such matters.
We take it for granted that the pres
ident will not go outside of the dis
trict to make an appointment, and it
(. necessarily follows that II the district
furnishes no available Republican
candidate which can be agreed upon,
Democrat will be selected.
Mr.. Reese is a Democrat, a man Of
high character. an able lawyer, and
has already done good service as as
J sistsnt to District Attorney Sheppard
in the notable prosecution of the peon-
age cases. He is not only qualified for
the position, but he is held in high
esteem throughout the district. and
his appointment would be received
with general satisfaction, We believe
by Republicans and Democrats alike.
II President Roosevelt finds il ad-
visable to appoint a Democrat, and
we believe that he will so find it, the
appointment of AIR. Reese would be an
excellent one.
