In attempting to explain the hold
William j. Bryan has on the United
States, writer in the London Daily
News says that 1t is moral purpose"
that gives his mind "its simple un-
ity and conference which has made
him the most powerful popular or
ator in the English speaking world"
Referring to the above the ST. Louis
Republic says: This comes close
to an explanation in full. 1t is near
err to it than any which has been
before condensed into a sentence.
If moral purpose did not operate
through knowledge, through grow
ing intelligence of the meaning of
the history of the world that grows
daily out of the past into the future,
ence, without which increasing
knowledge threatens to end in brain
storms. But it would not reach far
1t might be worth more in it's reach
than the best knowledge of leaders
such as some of those who have
attempted to take John Bright's
place in England, knowing more
than Bright knew, but lacking in
moral purpose, and SO ending in
mere incoherence. We have them
in this country, learning more and
more of politics without moral pur-
pose, to their own confusion and the
moral purpose enough to escape
their influence"

1t is likely that not even the five

Just because a few fantasies resur-
rected the Bailey" issue at San An
tonic is no reason why democracy
should be again torn by that dead
issue. Democracy means more than
Bailey, Culberson, Bryan, or any
other man. 1t was here first. Its
principles are well founded, not in
the likes or dislikes OF an individual
but in that which goes to make for
the welfare of the state and nation.

The Houston Post makes the
following timely comment on the
effort of President Roosevelt to
increase the naval strength. The
people do not desire to go much
futher in the direction of militar
ism. Already our military ex-
penses are absorbing 10 per cent
of our revenues. ratio that ex-
lists in no other country. We do
not want an army and a navy
that will make the United States
aggressive. Force enough for
defensive purposes is about as
far as it is wise or safe to go.

"The Full Dinner Pail. /"

The Philadelphia Inquirer (rep. J
says; To-day Theodore Roosevelt is
president of the United States. There
is another industrial depression, and
the tens of thousands are once more
raising the bread cry.
ut is useless to point out to them
that the conditions are born of wick
edness in high financial circles; that
this, that, and the other thing are re-
sponsible for the closed manufactor-
les, the abandonment ofrailway devel-
opment, the discharge of immense
bodies of men who had been employed
at comfortable wages.

tented with. They want bread

EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME
MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas,
bitters, laxatives and tonics, were to be
found in almost every house, compound
ed by the housewife, sometimes assisted
by the apothecary or the family doctor.
Such remedies as picra, which was
aloes and quassia, dissolved in apple
brandy. Sometimes hop tonic, made
