Danger to Fordwych's Duckins Stool

a&tA
The pretty Kentish village OF
Fordwych, near Canterbury, is in dan
ger of losing it's ducking stool, for
which a large price has been offered
by a transatlantic millionaire. This
is one of the very few remaining ex'
amples left in England of the instru
ment formerly designed for the ref
ormation of scolding OIL otherwise un'
satisfactory wives. This distinction
of course, it shared with the now sim
ilarly rare scold's bride. 1t is said
by the way, that the ducking stool al
Fordwych was even used in the pun
ishment of so-called witches, after the
barbarous fashion of those times

my son Clyde was almost completely
covered with eczema. Physicians treated
him for nearly a year without helping him
any. His head, face, and neck were COW

until they fell of. Then blood and matter
would run out and that would be worse.
Friends coming to see him said that if he
GOT well he would be disfgured for life.

stand it no longer, l used some Cuticura

1t is probably true that Mr. BRYAN has
intimated that he would be glad to have
Judge GEORGE GRAY associated with him
on the Democratic Presidential ticket,
but it is blow under the belt. There
may be United States Judges who vio-
late the tradition Of their dignified Office
by projecting themselves into politics to
crafty personal ambition, but such
cases are very rare; and certainly Judge
GRAY is above suspicion. At no time
since he assembled the bench has he coun-
tenanced the use Of his name as a can
didate for President. Mr.. BRYAN knows
this very well, and if he is privy to pro-
posal to link Judge GRAY's name with his
own on Presidential ticket Mr.. BRYAN
is engaged in politics highly discreditable
to him but eminently characteristic.
Every wind from the West brings
message that Judge GRAY would be ac-
ceptable to Mr.. BRYAN as an associate.
So we may assume that the message was
inspired.
The motive is clear enough Mr.. BRYAN
desires to conciliate the conservatives
OF the party before the convention meets
and thus disarm opposition to his tri-
umph by reclamation on the first ballot.
But that he would suffer the comparison
between himself and GEORGE GRAY
which the coupling Of the two names
would emphasize no one who understands
the vanity Of WILLIAM J. BRYAN can be-
lieve for moment.
Imagine a jurist Of GEORGE GRAY's
high reputation as q candidate for Vice.

paramount issue was Mr.. BRYAN's anti
injunction plank, sop thrown to a

himself, but who is there that does not
know it would be an indignity to offer
him the second place on Bryan ticket?

The Passing Fire Engine.

1t s probable that within compara-
tivelyfew years the fire engine will disap-
pear from the crowded streets of the city,
dismissed to service only in those remote
sections Of the town to which the high
pressure mains of the new water system
do not reach. The hook and ladder
trucks, the hose wagons, and possibly
chemical engines for extinguishing
blazes discovered early, will remain
familiar sights, but the polished steamer
with it's shrill wAcRae and trailing
streamer of sooty smoke will not be a
part Of the daily panorama OF the busi-
meas section.
The new water system should make a
conhagration impossible. From it's mains
an ample supply Of water, under the
heaviest pressure that. can be controlled,
will be available at all times. Curtains
Of waterway be put on every side of a
fire. With proper connections every
tall building may be protected to the
ridge pole. In case Of. drought or inl
emergencies the new mains can take
water from the rivers.
For many years the builders Of sky
scrapers set problems for the Fire De-
partment that seemed almost impossible
Of solution. Let US hope they are met.
Standpipes and the high pressure water
service have removed one danger that
grew out Of skeleton steel construction.

Sound Money Is Always an Issue.

This is what the promoters OF Bryan
ite harmony" and third nomination
for a twice defeated candidate are now
saying to the honest money men, par
ticularly the Gold Democrats of 1895
who marched by hundreds of thousands
to the defence of the nations financial
honor in order that BRYAN with his
fraudulent measure Of values might not
reach the place of power:
"You no longer behold the BRYAN Of
1898. 1t Is new BRYAN we offer you.
This is not the BRYAN of Sixteen to One.
No longer is silver an isuse. Free COIN
age at the ratio of sixteen to one is not
in the mind of Mr.. BRYAN to-day, nor
is il in the minds Of his followers. The
question OF bimetallism has passed for
ever out of the field and out of sight
That is what they are saying at Lin
coin and elsewhere.
What do JUDsoN HARMON, GEORGE
GRAY, JOHN JoHNsoN-what do the
sound money Cleveland Democrats
think of that invitation?
The especial variety of dishonest BIZ
metallism which BRYAN tried to force
upon the United States, TO his own profit
and the country's certain dishonor, for
the sake of getting himself into power
twelve years ago is out of sight just at
present-no fault of his!
Little matter, however, whittier Sixteen
to One has gone, when the demagogue
himself is there, with his known methods
and his notorious political morals. 1t
is the same old BRYAN. Politicians born
that way do not change.
Sound money is always an issue. Pro-
posals Of Reputation in whole or in part,
ingenious expedients for tightening the
debtors just burden at the expense Of
the creditor, new forms Of financial
heresy, new infations or swindles or
clippings of the coin, are as certain to
occur as the general causes and condi-
tion of unrest or distress which produce
them are sure to return in the nations
experience.
While it is impossible to forecast the
form which the next great popular move
'ment for the impairment of the currency
or the degradation of financial standards
will take, the course of WILLIAM. BRYAN
is such an event may be predicted with
scientific accuracy. Is there doubt in
the mind of any observer of his career,
any business man who has had reason to
view with apprehension in the past his
active interest in financial discussion?

orandum. There c9n be no niisunder-
standing on the subject. The natives
Of the Congo must be protected from
slavery and from excessive taxation;
they must be allowed some right OF own
ership In the land, and they must have
freedom to trade with private individuals
and foreign companies. Not one OF
these indispensable benefits can be Sc
cured unless the payment Of taxes in
forced labor Is done away with; pay
ment in coin must be substituted, to
which end the Congo State, like other
States, must provide its subjects with
a circulating medium. The further
principle is laid down in the British
memorandum that there can be no
freedom of commerce so long as over
three-ffths OF the country the trade In
rubber, the most valuable product Of
the soil, is monopoly of privileged cor
porations. The truth of these averments
Is virtually acknowledged in the Belgian
reply to the British despatch. 1t is for
the Parliamentary representatives of the
Belgian people to devise the specific
means by which these aims can be car
ried into effect, and for reoonciling them
with the policy which Mr.. ScHoLLAERT,
the Belgium Premier, has avowed an in
tention of adopting toward the conces-
sionary companies.
For the moment, therefore, the atti-
tude of Great Britain and the United
States toward the Congo question is that
Of expectancy. Those two Powers are
assuming that the Belgian Government
is acting in good faith. and consequently
they will give it time to adopt such valid
improvements in the administration of
the Congo State as will render it need
less for outsiders to bestow any further
attention on the matter.
