legiance to that cause. We fought and lost.
 In .he next four years I repaired my shattered ship.
 In 1900 I was ready for the battle again, and I started my Chicago pa- pers at the request of Senator Jones on the very day that the democratic convention met in Kansas City. We fought, and l lost again. We lost, but we fought the fight that must be fought by every follower of Jefferson, of Jackson, of Lincoln, of Tilden, un- til plutoeratic power shall cease to be exalted above popular rights, until the will of people shall prevail.
 We fought and lost, and 1 was not tired of fighting, but apparently Mir. Bryan was. I was fighting for a pa- triotic cause he was fighting for a personal victory.
 In 1904 he hauled down his flag and made a compact with Parker that he would support Parker and all that l and all that Parker represented would support him.
 Do you doubt it? Can you doubt it?
 Look at his action in denouncing Parker before the convention.
 Look at his act in supporting Par ker after the convention and prac- tically supporting him in the conyen- ton.
 Look at the $2OOOO which MT. Ryan, MT. Parkers sponsor. contributed to Bryans campaign fund.
 Look at Parler's attitude now, and Ryan's attitude now, and Rockefel- lers attitude now.
 Look at the $3OO,000 campaign fund in one lump that. Mack admits having received, but forgets how he received.
 Look at the kind of trust-oWned papers that are supporting Bryan now and the private cars that are ten- dered him now, and the private cars that are used to snap at him, and now fawn on him.
 Look at this man Haskell, whom Bryan made chairman of his commit tee on platform, and treasurer of his campaign fund.
 This man Haskell, known and ex- posed in court as a political pay master of the Standard Oil, is asked by MT. Bryan first to make a plat form the Standard oil will approve of and then to collect from the Stan- dard Oil the material expression of their approval.
 I said in Indiana that MT. Bryan f,1f. f1f. .sf modern politics, who makes his prin- ciples disappear ana changes his pol itics in full view of the audience a snowman at a county fair executing a shell game with his political fin gers.
 But Mir Bryan is more than a show man-he is the whole show.
 He is the astonishing ventriloquist who throws his voice there and an other voice there, and all the time is sitting in a different place with a different natural voice and a diff ferent natural character. He has no mustache with which to deceive, but he deceives you nevertheless.
 He is the marvellous contortionist who bends forward and backward with equal convenience. and walks upon his feet or upon his hands with equal facility.
 He is the astonishing juggler who keeps the whole of the surprising collection of conflicting principles in the air at the same time, but balances Belmont, the union labor breaker, in one hand, and Gompers, the union labor leader in the other.
 He is the human ostrich, who swal- lows his own words in regard to bosses ard who is able to retain upon

EnsIey Pleased By News.

The official statement of President Crawford, of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company, of the improve ments that are authorized and that work will begin at an early date is received with much satisfaction by the people oe Ensley generally.
 It is stated that improvements will cost from s1,5OO,OOO to s2,OOOOO0. This will mean work for a vast army of skilled me- chanics and laborers. which will add much to the material benefits of the town. Much might be said along these lines as much has been promised in the way of enlarging the present plants. The new improvements are but the beginning of the vast expansion the Steel corpor- ation has in view

Following, Published for thc First Time, Is inc Full Text of William K. RcarSt'S Speech Delivered in Birm- ingham Monday Night, Sept. IA, 1908, in the Bir- mingham HippOdrOme-It Was Heard by What Is De- clared By All To Be Birm- ingham'S Greatest Political Meeting.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-09-17

My Friends: I have come all the way from New York to see my friend Graves and to meet the independents and some southern democrats.
 have come to make an explanation, not an apology or a defense, or an excuse of any kind, but a plain ex- planation of why 1 ceased to call my self democrat and have withdrawn from the support of MT. Bryan.
 I have always been a democrat my people, all of them, have been demo- crats, southern democrats-South Car olna, Virginia, Missouri democrats, California democrats.
 My father was a democratic senator from California, and I was brought up to believe heart and soul in democ- racy, not merely in the name of de- mocraey, but in the principles of de- mocracy, in the principals of the Dec laration of Independence which Jeff ferson wrote, and in the principles of the original democratic-republican party which Jefferson founded.
 When Bryan was nominated in 1896 and the revolt against him swept in a day all over the land and reached a climax in that stronghold of the "ene- my's country" New York, I was just attaining success with my New York paper. I pondered all the day of Bryan's nomination and all that night upon what I should do. I have every thing to lose and nothing to gain by supporting him. and I did not believe in free silver.
 But I did believe in democracy I came to the conclusion that the man might not be sound, but at least he was sincere and that the cause he stood for was the peoples cause When, therefore, the morning of the next day broke, I walked down to boys: ''unlimber the guns; we are go- ing to fight for Bryan"
 Oh, we fought for him fight that will be remembered. We were like a 
 in by a host of others, and from all sides shot and shell poured into our devoted hulk.
 Editorial guns raked us, business guns shattered us popular guns bat tered us, and above the din and flame of battle arose the curses of the Wall street crowd that hated us.
 One by one, like the falling masts of cess I had attained. Crashing down upon the deck and over the side came all opportunities for newspaper in- come or advancement, prestige or po- sition, tlie things men labor for and prize.
 News dealers who carried the paper at all held it under their stands, and only produced it when some one asked for it.
 Advertisers called on me and said they would take out every advertise ment if I continued to support Bryan, and I told them to take out their ad-
 
 in which to support Bryan.
 l had space enough after that, and the deficit taken from the books for the month of October, 1896, was $15s, OO0 Clubs threw the paper into the streets, friends dropped it from their homes. But did we surrender? No. In the words of the immortal Decatur, we had only begun to flight. All this time I did not even know MT. Bryan. I had never seen him, I had never heard him, I did not even know what he looked like except from the pie lures l saw in the paper.
 I was supporting MT. Bryan, but was not fighting for him alone. l was making a fight in what I believed was the peoples battle, and what l believed was the public good. l was making fight for a cause and man

LIKE HUMAN cORKS,
How the Water In Great Salt LAX,
Treats the Bathers.

How the Water In Great Salt Lake
Treats the Bathers.
Bathing in Great Salt lake is
unique experience.
Flights of steps lead down into the
water from the interminable platform
along which the lighthouses are stu.
ated. The water is quite shallow at
first, and you find rare enjoyment for
time in wriggling your toes about In
the salt that forms the bottom in
place of accustomed sand. You are
obliged to wade out some distance be-
fore you experience the peculiar buoy
ancy of the lake. First you feel your
feet trying to swim out from under
you. You find 1t more and more diff
cult to walk. You begin to float in
spite of yourself. Then you realize
you are nonsinkable. You can't sink IL
you want to. Throw yourself on your
back or sit down or try to swim, and
you bob about like a rocking chair in
freshet. You feel as though you had
been turned to cork. You can't help
looking at the phenomenon subjective
ly. You don't see that there Is any
thing peculiar about the water. It
looks and feels like any other bathing
water-until you get some of it in your
eyes or in your mouth. Then you wish
you hadn't come. Ocean water Is
sweet in comparison. In fact, the
chemists tell us it IS eight times less
salty.
You can't drown in the lake by sink
ing, but you can be suffocated to
death, which is just about as uncom-
Portable and undesirable. We found
signs everywhere warning us against
being too laxative or too frolicsome in
the water.
When we came out we brought with
us large deposits of salt on our skin.
AS the water evaporated we found our
selves covered with white crystals.
Only strong shower bath Of fresh
water or a good clothes brush can put
you into fit condition to dress.-Travel
