STRONG MEN TO THE FRONT.

The strong men go to the front in
emergencies and do things: the weak
er brethren. and especially the breth-
rem who have least at stake, merely
kick and criticize. They can always
do il better than the other fellows
but they never do. This is true in
both war and peace When the
great brain OF Robert E Lee was
planning campaigns and executing
them under Disadvantages that would
have utterly crushed an ordinary
man. there were critics at every
crossroads in the South who could
make marks in the sand with a stick
and show you how they could have
done il better and Won in every in
stance where Lee had failed. And so
now when the biggest financial brains
in America have saved the land from
> great disaster by the quick applica-
ton OF marvellous expert knowledge
(which looks as easy as falling of

Mr.. Bryan has at last broken his
long silence on the paramount ques-
ton, and formally declares that he
will accept the Democratic nomina-
ton for President next year If it IS
rendered him. but he will make No
effort to secure it nor to prevent 1t
going TO anyone else. He Will not
even discuss the question of his avail
ability but throws the whole burden
and responsibility upon the party.
merely keeping himself in a passive
and receptive state. The general tone
of Mr. Bryan's letter, while not des-
pondent as TO party prospects next
year, is not of distinctly encourag-
ing character and somehow leaves
the impression that his hopes for
victory are not strong enough 10
make him banker after the nomina-
ton.

Here is something from the Fort
Pierce Tribune that furnishes food
for thought in these parlous times:
One of the most disgraceful acts
ever perpetrated by men having
ordinary intelligence was the resOlu
ton adopted by the Business Mems
League supposedly liquor dealers).
of Jacksonville, last Friday, when
they condemned and called upon the
school board to stop the children in
public schools from being taught the
doctrines OF prohibition, the singing
of prohibition songs, and listening to
the prohibition addresses. This is a
deadly parallel to the speech OF one
OF the officers of the Ohio State
Liquor League, when he told the as
sembled saloon men that the future
of your business depends upon the
creation of appetite among the boys,
and that nickels spent in treats with
the boys will return dollar 70 your
tills after the appetite has been form
ed Must the cradle and school
houses be robbed of our boys TO keep
the saloon men in business? This
one act Of the Jacksonville business
men should turn the vote Of every
father for prohibition"
