His Parts of Speech.

Henry Watterson, the virile
editor of the Courier-Journal is
tender about his parts of speech.
He should not be. There is no
man in this country today who
has so wonderful a command of
language or who can express as
much in as few words. He has
a remarkable vocabulary and his
choice of words is always per-
feet. We call attention to the
following paragraph from a re-
cent editorial:
Last year we could have
elected Johnson, of Minnesota.
We could not elect Bryan for the
reason that the trend of public
opinion was bent toward the mid
die course embodied by Taft, who
was elected not because of
Roosevelt, but in spite of Roose-
welt. The country had grown
tired of Roosevelt's incessant-
ness and strenuosity, and would
not take Bryan because he SEEM
ed too much like Roosevelt. Taft,
a man of straw upon a platform
of imposture, played to the trade
inspired temper of the time. The
people were thinking more OF
dollars than of doctrines.
