Nj. BRYAN ON HIS DEFEAT


In the Commoner Of Nov. ID
appears an editorial written by
Mr.. Bryan, entitled "a Battle Lost
A War But Begun in which he
takes the position that the Ameri-
can people will not permit any of
what he believes to be the coun-
try's ills to go to long before cure
is effected. He takes the ground
that there must be a party repre-
senting the peoples protest against
wrong in high places, against cor
ruption i'll politics, etc.
We quote the following para.
graph from the editorial as we be-
lieve it will be read with interest:
During the last twelve years the
democratic party has accomplished
more out of power than the repub.
lican party has accomplished in
office, and this is ii sufficient re-
ward for those who fight for Il
righteous cause. It would have
been pleasant to have been able to
reward worthy democrats with Off,
cial positions, but the most worthy
OF the democrats are not looking
for official positions, they are look
ing for good government, and they
labor tinselfishly for the promo
tion of good government They
will neither be discouraged nor
dismayed by defeat. They eau
not cease to be interested in the
government. for indifference would
only invite worse abuses than those
from which we now suffer. The
fight must he continued because,
good government is the richest
legacy parent can leave to

A BOY WITH TACT.
The s4sry Of = Queer ssrrswins
Transsetion In New York.


Tact combined with confidence is
the first qualification of business
man, and the following little incl
dent in the history Of one of the
most successful merchants of New
York shows development of this
trait early in his business career:
Coming to the great city, With
out friends and with very little
money, he found his way to ''lower
Wall street" and, walking into the
store OF W. & Co, passed back into
the counting room and waited mod
estly and patiently till ,he should
divert the attention of Mr.. W., who
vas at the moment busily engaged
with some friend.
At last the frank, open face of
the boy attracted his notice, and he
addressed him with:
1What can ! do for you, sonny9"
81 want place, sir"
"Well, what can vou do ?"
The boy answered eagerly:
@Most anything, sit."
Mr. W., partly for a joke and
partly to rid himself Of the almost
too confident boy, said:
"Ah! Well, just go out and bor-
row me couple OF thousand dol
lars"
The lad placed his hat on his
head, walked out of the store, then
passed slowly down Front street till
he came to another large store in
the same line of business. Then,
with bold but honest look, he
walked up to the head of the house
and said:
.Mr. W. of W. & Co. sent me
down to borrow $4,000"
"He did, my son? How is busi-
ness up at your place."
The boy, having seen the APP
pearance Of large shipments, an
swered quickly:
every good, sir"
1.-TWO thousand dollars, did you
say? VIII that be enough?'
sWell, $4,000 is all he told me,
but if you have plenty think he
would like it if you sent him 49,
O0O.'
"Just give this boy check for
$4,000 for w. s. Co.." remarked the
merchant to the cashier.
The boy took the check and with
it returned to Mr.. W. walking back
into the Office with an air Of success
full pride, and said:
"Here it lis, SIR
Mr.. W.,4taking one look at the
check and then at the boy, said
"Young man. come in here. You
are just the one have been look
ing for"
And, giving him a desk, he set
him to work. St. Louis Globe

To Encourage Homesteaders.

From the Secretary of the Interior comes the inn
portant announcement that it is the duty OF his de-
partment to so interpret the land laws as to afford
encouragement and assistance to bona fide home
makers Secretary Garfield though to the dut-
les of his position makes the rather startling asser
ton in his annual report just issued that the laws
relating to the public domain exist for the protection
of the entryman who, with honest purpose, locates
upon claim and proceeds to develop the latent re-
sources of the soil
What he says is likely to discourage the popular
msapprehension that the public domain is re-
serve for the exploitation of speculative ambitions
under the auspices and protection of the government
So long have the land grabbers looked upon the un-
occupied of the west as an open invitation to
graft that the honest intentioned home seeker has
been disposed to pass his privileges rather than at
tempt the winning of farm in the face of technical
objections certain to be raised by covetous specula
tors.
He has been subject to contests without cause and
to criminal prosecution and to various petty persecu-
tons, all designed to discourage him and drive him
away from the scene of his wel-meant efforts.
Under the administration of Mr.. Gar6eld's prede-
cessor, the genuine entryman discouraged and
the tfieving speculator encouraged and the result
is that titles innumerabe have passed from the gov
eminent to individuals corporations that will per-
NIT them to lie idle until purchased at excessive
prices by real producers
1t is now the announced policy of the department
to encourage honest claimants and to protect them
against the consequences of technical errors when
good faith can be made reasonably apparent
The public domain states will welcome this change
in department methods for they interested in the

Roosevelt may have been deceived when he loaned
the public millions to Wall Street, but he knows

So far as success goes, the wife OF
farmer in the western part of the state OF

years at 8 per cent.
