THE DISASTROUS ELEMENT OF
 TIME

The fates appear to have decreed that MT. Bryan shall not sit in the presidential chair. They have per sistently kept him in the wrong place at the right time or in the right place at the wrong time. At any rate the element of time figures dis astrously in his political calculations.
 Twelve years ago and again eight years ago his brilliancy and magnet ism could not blind a large large ma jority of the voters to the danger of what it was then agreed were the vagaries of either a demagogue or of an uniformed mind. Whatever may have been thought of Mir Bryan per sonally, the people would have none of his policies.
 He would have been no more suc- cessful in 1904. Soon after that, however. the tide of popular senti ment turned in his direction but un- fortunately for him there was no presidential election at hand nor 
 would there be within the ensuing three years. Had there been, then would have have been MT. Bryan's golden opportunity. Most of what had hitherto been believed to be vagaries came to be accepted as sound doc Urine. Many of the states. among them republican states, enacted as far as they could, many of the notions of Bryan into laws and in most cases no pains were taken to resent the democratic taunt that Bryan was the pioneer along this new line of thought.
 Now again he is a candidate but 9 revulsion of sentiment has set in. The tide of populism is ebbing as rapidly as it rose. By November next r will have so far receded that MT. Bryan will find himself left high and dry upon the rocks far short of tne pinnacle toward which he has been swimming with and against the tide for a dozen years.

It is observable that the auction rooms and secondhand stores are do- ing a restricted business in house. hold furniture. A large part of the population, hitherto about this sea- son of the year, has been selling or pawning their domestic effects to de- fray the expenses of a skimped vaca- tion on the coast. Either the people have so much money that they are not forced to resort to such desperate means to secure a summer of misery or else they are staying at home in larger numbers than usual. It is difficult to understand why they should run away at great expense from the most delightful climate de- scribed by the daily meteorological reports.

Marcus A. Smith, speaking of the re- publican platform, "to take the anti injunction plank and make anything out of it." MT. Smith, let it be
 borne in mind, is a democrat and the platform was presumably not con- structed to the end that democratic statesmen should be able to make anything out of 1t, especially not campaign material. But whatever faults, if any, there may be in the Chicago platform, it is foregone conclusion that the Denver declara- tion will be worse.

STRUGGLE FOR WEALTH.

When we compare the Industrial en-
ergy of an Englishman or an American
with that of an Arab or a modern
European with that of an ancient Greek
we can see hardly any limit to the va
riety Of degree in which the love OF
wealth may stimulate human beings to
action Nor is e even the invariable
associate OF high Intelligence and culti-
vation. On the contrary, classical and
Oriental society abound with examples
of high intellectual conditions, as re-
ligious society throughout the world
abounds with examples of high moral
condition, with a minimum Of produc-
ton and accumulation. In a word. the
instinct and the habit OF production are
Just as variable as human nature

One Man Shot and Then Buried
Alive BY Soldiers.

New York, April 27.-The French
cruiser D'Estrees is in port from Hayti,
where the ship was sent at the time
of the recent attempted revolution to
look after French interests. The Off
GERS of the ship have many stories to
tell of the revolution.
While at Port Au Prince, Hayti, the
D'Estrees was the haven for 80
refugees and the officers told yesterday
of the horrors of nocturnal execution
on March Is Of a group of men accused
of attempting to incite a revolution q
few days after President Nord Alexis
had quelled a rising against his ad-
ministration.
There were not enough graves dug
for all the persons who were shot and
one prominent merchant had to sit
and watch the soldiers dig his future
burial place.
AS the firing squad was in hurry
his grave was dug only Of sufficient
size to allow him to be buried with
his arms and knees together. The
bullets failed to kill and he was
jumbled into a hole. which was yet
too small. Then the grave diggers
pushed him in with their shovels and
while they were covering him he
sought to protest by moving his hands.

iNTERLocUToRY DECREE
Granted Allowing Eastern Steamship
Co. to Raise $115,300.

Portland, Me-, April 27-An inter-
locutory decree giving the temporary
receivers of the Eastern Steamship
Co. permission to issue receivers GER
tif1cates for $115,3OO to defray certain
expenses was granted after brief
hearing today by Judge Putnam of the
circuit court.
The principal item in the list and
most important fact developed was the
100000 included for the payment of in
terest on bonds due May l. This means
that the company's affairs are in such
shape that for the present at least it
will not fall into the hands of the
bondholders.
The other charges were $22,950 to
meet bills due for labor, coal and pro-
visions at st. John, N. B.: $21 $50 for
rental of Union wharf, Boston; and
$10,44O for interest due the Portland
Trust Co. on motagage on the steamer
Bay State.
When informed that it was the in
tention of the receivers to have the
Boston steamer touch at Boothbay.
Judge Putnam cautioned them that
there must *+be no experimenting or
specializing while the affairs of the
company are in the hands of the court
and stated that he will not give mis-
consent for the steamers TO touch at
Boothbay until permission is obtained
from the mortgages.
