defeat Mr. Bryan. II does not appear
from his statements that he thinks
that Governor Johnson will be the
nominee, but he is obviously here
TO defeat the democratic leader who.
ever may succeed to his place. His
work Is spectacular his claims most
impressive. But his assertions fail
very short Of the fact lie insists that
MIR. Bryan will not have half Of the
delegates I'm the Denver convention.
In order TO demonstrate this point
he claims that all unnstructed dele

This is wholly untrue The Rhode
island delegation and the Connect

ed are Bryan delegations. Nobody can
tell what the New York delegation
will DO For many years past it has
been the practice of New York to
instruct only when the state had a
favorite son to present. The New
York Herald asserts that the dclega-
tion will be- voted for Mr. Bryan.

Washington, May SpeciaD The

his ability no man could possibly
raise doubt liut to elect Senator
Knox president OF the United states

To elect Andrew Carnegie, j. Pier

His interests are allied with those
of these men. Either they or their
companions. out of the almost thirty
million who will vote in this coming
campaign there are not five thous-
and who have ever seen Knox or
listened to him. But from the pic
turcsque point on Broadway where
the old Spirc of Trinity church looks
down the gambling alley of wall
street, there are few men who do
not know him. The nomination OF
Knox even with money back of IT,
which is promised. should be wei.
coined by the democratic party. II
would at least mean that the line be-

clearly defined and that the battle
would be fought To finish.

Modern research lends color to the belief that the ancient Egvp.
tiaus knew that rats transmitted the plague and other diseases. and
the great value of cats in destroying rats, thereby checking chi.
denies. And this in all probability led to the high esteem in
which cats are held and the divine honors sometimes paid them.
IL is a great pity that the modern Hindu does not have the same
esteem for the cat, but so supersttious are they that large numb.
ers OF them will not keep cats, because of the belief that if a cat
ued IN house or kittens were bora in it, the whole family
would immediately lose caste. Evidently the pious Hindu would
rather die of the plague than lose caste.

Back to the land" is a cry much heard these days, and it is
we'll to act upon it that the congested condition of the cities with
its attendant evils of poverty, misery and crime may be relieved.
But many men of slender means who buy small farms in the ex.
pectauon of making a living and enjoying life are bitterly disap.
pointed. The trouble is they have had no experience, and scarce.
~ any business today needs a practical working knowledge to in.
sure success more than farming. If people of small means want
to succeed and realize the advantages of country life, they should
lind work for a time with some progressive successful farmer.

After every election the winning side is highly gratfed while
the losing side is correspondingly disappointed. But the feelings
OF both are soon modified by the thought of the next election, and
the knowledge that the whirligig of time may make the defeated
of today the victor of tomorrow. And, apart from this, once the
fever of excitement has disappeared and people calmly consider
the verdict, there is the general recognition that all parties are
earnest for the nations good, however much they may differ from
one another in political principles and methods.

The one fly in the box of ointment of satisfaction over the tri-
umphal cruise of the American fleet is the apathy or GOODNESS with
which it has been greeted by the Chinese. Probably the reason
for this is the fact that only one.half of the fleet visited China,
while the whole fleet visited Japan. Still the apparent displeasure
of the Celestials is not likely to disturb our relations with China
nor cause the officers and enlisted men of the fleet any loss of
sleep or decrease of their enjoyment.
