A BELOVED YALENSIAN.

The sudden death Of George A. Adee
Wednesday removes one Of the most
widely and deservedly loved Yale man.
1t is safe to say that no graduate Of
Yale enjoyed as widespread an ac-
auaintance among Yale men as he,
speaking of him as one not connected
with the official life Of the university,
Not even Mr.. Taft can boast such a
circle OF personal friendships. Mr.. Adee
was unique among Yale men in this re-
spect. His loving devotion to the ath-
letic interests OF the college covered
many years and brought him as leader,
peacemaker and friend into contact
with the old the middle aged and the
young into whose 'companionship he
was welcomed with affectionate graft
tude.
The secret Of Mr.. Adees profound
popularity was his capacity for friend
ship and his striking lack of the selfish
note. He gave freely OF the best there
was in him and he gave with such
charming confidence that he unconsci-
ously disarmed the thoughtless as well
as the dslngenuous, Among his init
mates his was a commanding position

Republicans and Progress.
(Springlield Republican,

1t is not necessary to be a president
OF the United States to perform i'm

Mr. Bryan's important service the past
few years has been In preventing the
use OF the democratic party as re-
dictionary force while progressive
movement was being organized in the
government under republican presl-
dent. The radical republicans every

Bnrking Up the wrong Tree.

Hartford Courant)
II Is so all through Mr.. Bryans ad-
dress. He charges every muckraker's
accusation TO the republican party, and
declares that the republican party
should be turned out Of power because
II has not used its power TO do away
with these things. He knows well
enough, however, all the while, that
there Is not n government on earth. nor
social order anywhere, that is not
open to the same form of accusation
and condemnation. He knows more
than this, unless his conceit has not al
together smothered his native shrewd-
ness. He knows that IL he had been
president during the last twenty years
and If he had had a democratic senate
and house TO assist him during all that
time. that the condition of business
morals and business practice in this
country would be the same as they are
o-day, and probably n great deal
worse. Mr.. Bryan Is barking up the
wrong tree. He is taking the lnhrmi-
ties of human nature-the natural, In
evitable and universal infirmities OF
human nature-and is charging them
all to the republican party That Is
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. impressive In q
village debating society, but not worth

and yet he was the last to recognize
the fact, IL It may be said with truth
that he ever did recognize It, In
many instances the man possessing
these personal characteristics develops
at times weakness, which permits
stronger men to override him but In
the case of Mr. Adee they We're the
source Of his marvellous influence over
Yale associates and Yale affairs When
1t became necessary for him to enforce
discipline or suppress an outbreak the
very quiet methods he used were found
to be more effective than the louder
methods of others The result was not
only harmony but the kind OF harmony
to which all factions assent.
Though still active in the naval al
fairs Of Yale after the withdrawal OF
Bob Cooke, Mr., Adee's name will be
associated with the chapters OF water

Of the Cook stroke and the abandon

Again Is the country relieved. Mr.
Bryan has accepted the democratic
nomination for the presidency. He did
It to-day, informally. to the extent of
about 10000 words, and later on will do
II again, more formally and probably
to greater length. He Is entitled to an
other 10000 words before he gets even
with Mr.. Taft and by the time he gets
through with dealing with the repub-
llcan platform in detail, as he pro-
poses TO do, there need be no fear but
he will use about all the words at his
command and about all the newspaper
