WILL THEY RETURN?

If William Jennings Bryan, still hold.
ing fast to the ruinous dogma Of free
silver, imagines that the patriotic sound
money Democrats who opposed his can
didacy in 1896 and 1900 will stulify
themselves by supporting him this
year, he is doomed to an overwhelm-
ing disappointment. His studied 81
lence on the financial question will no,
deceive the independent members oil
his party who revolted against the
Bryan menace of reputation and dis
honor twelve years ago. His policy is
quite as hateful to them now as it was
then. They remember that in nearly
every one of his speeches in 1896 he
insulted and sneered at them. AS an
example, take the following from his
speech in Memphis, Tenn, on Octo-
Der S of that year:
81 want to tell you what told
others: That ifyou think the gold stand
ard is absolutely necessary to the wei
fare Of this country, you make a great
mistake if you vote for me, because, il
| can help it, the gold standard won't
stay in this country for one moment
Mr.. Bryan has always insisted that
there should not and could not be any
compromise between those who OPP
posed the gold standard and those who
supported it. He is on record in
scores of instances as denouncing its
Democratic supporters as men "who
want to use the party organization for
private gain and their country for pub
lie plumber" He has notified the
Democrats leaving their party because
of his advocacy of free silver to stake
their baggage with them and not ex
pect to come back" and he has boast
ed that he does not know of a set O
men he would rather lose than the gold
Democrats.
Yet Mr.. Bryan, in spite OF his intol
Grant treatment of the sound money
Democrats, appears to cherish the hope
that they will compromise with con
science and vote for him this year. He
torgets that their revolt in 1896 was in
spired by devotion to moral rather
than political principle. They took
the position that questions affecting the
national honor and the national credit
were not legitimate subjects for parti-
Fan controversy, that no party can
bind its members to support a policy
which runs counter to their conscience,
and that the integrity OF party govern
ment implies the right of the individu-
al to rebel against party mandates when
his own sense Of duty requires him to
do SO.
There isn't shred of evidence to
show that MIR. Bryan's position on the
coinage question has changed. There
is every reason to believe that the atti-
tude of the sound money Democrats re-
mains absolutely unchanged. That
the twice defeated advocate of free sill
yer, reputation and dishonor should
expect the support this year of the self
respecting Democrats who voted for
his overthrow in 1896 and 1900, is
simply another manifestation of his
ridiculous notion that they are either
towards or fools.

whizzed past an inn n great crowd Of

negie, "a mark OF respect for you, Sir.

hats to show honor to distinguished
visitors; here they take off their trou-

HARPs HUNG UP IN BABYLON.

THE harps hung up in Babylon
Their loosened strings rang on,
sang on.
" And cast their murmurs forth
The roll and roar of Babylon:
Forget me, Lord. II l forget
Jerusalem for Babylon,
IL 1 forget the vision set
High as the head OF Lebanon
Is lifted over Syria yet,
II forget and bow me down
To british gods of Babylon"
Two rivers to each other run
In the very midst of Babylon,
And swifter than their current fleets
The restless river OF the streets
OF Babylon. of Babylon.
And Babylon's towers smite the sky.
But higher reeks to God most high
The smoke of her iniquity.
But, oh, betwixt the green and blue
To walk the hills that once we knew
When you We're pure and l was true
So rang the harps In Babylon
''Or ere along the roads of stone
Had led us captive one by one
The subtle gods of Babylon"
The harps hung up In Babylon
Hung silent till the prophet dawn.
When Judahs feet the highway burned
Back to the holy hills returned
And shook their dust on Babylon.
In lions halls the wild harps rang.
To Zions walls their smitten clang
And. 10. of Babylon they sang,
They only sang of Babylon:
Jehovah round whose throne of awe
The vassal stars their orbits draw
Within the circle OF thy law,
Canst thou make nothing what Is done
Or cause thy servant to be one
That has not been In Babylon.
That has not known the power and
pain
or life poured out like driven rain?
l will go down and find again
My soul that's lost in Babylon

A REMEDY SUGGESTED.

1t is suggested that probably little
will be accomplished and probably nc
permanent Improvement made unless
all of these laws are repealed and an
attempt is made to revise the same into
a law OF laws which will be simply Ger
tain and unconlradictory, and that
probably better result could thus be
accomplished than by attempting dras-
tic or other legislation by way of fur.
ther amendments
1t is objected that this might be very
difficult, but it is submitted that it will
be less difficult to straighten these
laws out than to enact a new law that
will be universally satisfactory, and
that the difficulties would not be so
great if the attempt was made to divide
the legislation into two parts by first,
IAN Act to Regulate the Sale OF In
toXicating Liquors, second IAN Act
to Provide for the Licensing of Places
to Sell Intoxicating Liquors and for
Revocation of the same" and third,
such other legislation providing for
local option, limited number OF places,
or high license, as might possibly be
considered advisable.
As to the legislation regulating the
sale. 1t would not be much difficulty
to pick them out of the various Acts
and enact them in revised form which
would possibly meet the approval oil
the opponents to the business and
might be acceptable TO those engaged
In it.

The Excise Situation.

II is reported that at recent hear
ing of the State Excise Commission
Prosecutor, George K. Large, made
the statement that there were no
troubles with violations of the Excise
Law in this County except in Lambert.
Vile. This would seem to be correct
although the prosecutor was, doubtless
very prudent in his statement thai
there was no trouble, but probably
would be far from saying that there
were no violations outside Of one city
At the same hearing it is reported
that City Clerk Reynolds stated that
the laws seemed to be satisfactory to
the city. And Chief OF Police l'reitz,
suggested that the only objection was
that the people wanted more saloons.
Their statements would also seem to
have some justification from the fact
that the Excise Board is elected by the
people and have been continuously in
creasng the number OF licensed places.
The truth of the matter probably is,
not only in this county, but almost uni
versally, that only the fragrant viola
ton, or the open defiance OF the law
comes to public notice There
are a very large number OF people who
think they want to go into the business,
yet there are constant and widespread
violations IN spite Of the fact of an APP
parent growth of opinion that the bust
ness ought to be curtaied. And III
many communities until recently but
little effort has been made to enforce
the law.
The greatest cause Tor violations and
other troubles is the almost lneXplic
able confusion of the laws relating to
the same. There is the 'Inns and
Tavems Act the "Mall Liquors Act,
the "Werts Act" the Bishops Bill
and innumerable Acts relating to ex
else commissions and licensed places
in cities, with great confusion in mod
i6cation and amendment of these vari-
Gus acts All these are OF similar import
yet apparently contradictory and con-
fusing.
AT 4 recent meeting OF the Judges
and Prosecutors of various counties
the wide difference of opinion as to
what the laws were was apparent, and
there were reported numerous conflict
ing constructions OF law and practice
with regard to licensed places. And
in one county the law is modified by
Rules OF Court
