sRYAN'S PROSPECTS
OF ELECTION
New Orleans Picayune.

It is almost universally admitted
that the prospects of Mr.. organs cleo
ton TO the chief magistracy of the
republic are vastly better than ever
they were in the two former cam
paIgns when he was the Democratic
nominee.
The reason is not difficult to under
stand In 1896 Mr. Bryan was a new
man pitted against William Mckinley,
then the most popular man, personal
ly and politically, in the United
States.
In 1900 Mr.. Bryan was better
known, particularly for his radical
ism, but he was again nominated
against Mr.. Mckinley. who had lost
none of his extraordinary popularity.
When We consider the popular vote
in those two elections We find the
following:
Mckinley ....7,IO4,779 1907. X23
Bryan 100000. $500 .925 6,33S. 1913
McKinley's popularity had grown
during his first term in the presiien-
cy, and there was no man in the
Union in any party that could success
fully contest with him, and today. if
Theodore Roosevelt were the Repub-
lican nominee, so great is his person
al popularity that he would defeat
Bryan on Bryan's own platform of
doctrines, for they both stand for the
same policies.
But Judge Taft is not Roosevelt.
Nobody who knows him believes that
he holds TO RoOseveIt's doctrines or
stands on RooSeveIt's ground The
corporate and capitaIi5tic classes. be-
lleying that there is a vast difference
between Taft and Roosevelt, are going
to support Taft, while the radical eIe-
ments Of the Republican party. that
would have followed Roosevelt to the
death, do not regard Taft in the
same light They distTUst Mr. Taft,
and they will support Bryan because
they know that for all practical DUR
poses of radicalism Bryan and Roose-
welt represent the same doctrines.
Thus it is that while none of Brv-
ans support Will go to Taft. no small
number Of ROOseveIt'5 following will
go TO Bryan, and the more distinct
and marked IS the caDitaIiStic and
corporate support of Tat, Just bv so
much will RoOsevelt's radical follow
ing go to Bryan.
So generally do the astute and saga
cious politicians of both parties recog-
nlze these conditions. that the enor-
nous enthusiasm shown for BRYAN at
Denver was born of the belief in the
great strength OF his candidacy. for
politicians are incapable of enthusing
over anything but success, AMI they
all think that they have secured it
As TO the republican leaders. they are
greatly disturbed at the situation as
II now appears, and a gloom seems to
have fallen upon them.
There Is now a prospect of placing
democrat IN the executive chair al
Washington, and it means places Tor
more than a hundred thousand Iemo-
Gratis hungry and thirsty for Office
That is certainly something for the
democratic politicians to enthuse over.

On the Contrary, DR.. Osler Is
Preparing to Take Part in
a Race With Winston
Churchill and George
Wyndham Next Noven-
ber-Men Who Are Over
Sixty and Doing Things.

| DR.. William Osler, the oxinian, who
! in an address at Johns Hopkins uni
versity in 1905, was widely quoted as
saying that mans best usefulness was
past at 40 years of age, and that men
ought to be chloroformed at 60, en-
tered upon the Sixtieth year of his age
recently
Did he call for the chIoroform bot
tie and give his instructions as to the
kind of epitaph he wanted?
No, not he. He called for coffee
! and rolls, remarked that it was fine
day and read all the politics in the
himself for church and walked to the
house of worship on foot.
Now, it appears that DIR. Osler is
about TO enter a contest with Winston
Churchill and George Wyndham,, for
mer Chief Secretary for Ireland, for
the lord rectOrship of the University
of Edinburgh The race is scheduled
for next November, and it IS under
stood that DR.. Osler is to begin train
ing at once.
Since the contestants are not TO car
~ weight for age, DIR. OSler is be-
lieved to have fine chance to defeat
the others In any event, he is said
to have announced that if he is a los
er he will not permit his defeat to
dampen his ardor for other work
English sporting blood has now
cooled as a result of Dr. Osler's an
nouncement of his candidacy for the
headship of Edinburgh's university,
As Dr. OSler's birthday approached it
was recognized that he must either
drink chlOTOfOTm or eat his words, and
many pounds sterling were wagered
on theaturn- DIR. Osler, having dined
comfortably on his words. will now,
his friends hope, dine comfortably on
Wyndham and Churchill
However, it is realized that if he
wants TO beat them to Edinburgh he
will have to leg it. And it is also
realized that if he once gets on the
raised dais at the university he will
have to sit tight to stay on it.
But since he thinks it worth while
10 try, it seems quite reasonable to
suppose that nothing is further from
his thoughts than the choroform
phial.

upon his sixtieth year of life calls at
