house of the Legislature, to the

signed his seat to accept the pO-

the lean biographical sketches ac-

lie made no bid for popularity
through the channels of sympathy
for him because of his past or his
present, for in nothing was he
tricky. That he was one of the
greatest men this or any other
country ever produced was, sim
ply, that he was born with mar
Vicious intellectual capacity that
he was Industrious and ambit-
ious; that he adopted a profess
sion and entered on a career
which developed and trained such
capacity. He had his vices,
as all men have them, but the
greatest of them, selfishness, the
very character of his mind sub
dued, if it did not actually des-
troy. That character of mind
was the trying out of all
questions on the right or wrong
principle of them. He reasoned,
and reasoning ignored the effect
of it on his own or the interests
of others.
1t may be said that he was
courageous in daring to decide by
such reasoning against the sound
ness of popular cries and risk
ing unpopularity. This is a mis-.
take. 1t was not courage. Con.
stituted as his brain was, he was
incapable of a course different
from that which he pursued and
which may be said to have ex-
patriated him as far as his State
was concerned, and left him on
his deathbed a comparatively
poor man. He had a mental
sweep that the ordinary man does
not possess. He

of the country contained a brief
dispatch that an individual by the
name of John G.. Carlisle, a native
of Kentucky, had died in New
York City. The dispatch was
neither printed in a type or Civ
en- a place in the columns to
which an important news item
would be entitled. Indeed the
explanation that he had been at
one time the Speaker of the
House of Representatives at
Washington, a member of the
United States Senate and a mem
Der of President Cleveland'S Cab
met, appeared to have been made
in apology for such brief notice
of his death as was printed. Here
and there a newspaper possessing
an editor who is acquainted with
the history of his country for,
say, twenty-five years back, COM
mented on the character and
public labOrs of this most remark
able citizen of it, but as a rule
his passing did not even provoke
a remark from the majority Of
the public prints. There are
those who will declare that the
failure of the death of this man
to cause a sigh Of regret from
the public is but another illustra-
ton of the ingratitude of Repub-
lies. This is hardly true. We
are bitter partisans and we re-
we're only our loudest and most
aggressive leaders. Besides, we
are sensational and take an in
terest only in those issues and
men which are before us for the
hour, and which represent some
thing which excites us. We for
get. That is the most cOntemp-
liable and deplorable characteris-
tie Of our political life, l re-
member that when Tilden made
his fight to reSurrect the Demo-
cratic party and for a Constitu-
tional Government, after the war,
no one, particularly in the South,
doubted that his name would be
enrolled among the greatest pa
triots and wiseSt men of all time.
How many men, under 40 years
of age, know who he was or what
he did, Cleveland was worship
ped, idolized, and in a moment he
was forgotten or if remembered,
only to be denounced by the very
leaders OF that party which for
the first time since the war had
been lead to victory by him Who
hears of FItzhugh Lee, Schley,
! Dewey?
Why, at the late Democratic
convention the name of W. j.
| Bryan, whom the Democratic peo-
pie have bowed down before in
absolute idolatry for fifteen years
was not mentioned in platform or
+, in speeches! We are surely
; a people who are always "off
with the old love and on with the
: new" If in the next few years
: this same W. ]. Bryan should
die-the same Bryan whose voice
1 hushed us in conventions whose
words made us weep; whose sug-
gestions were our command
ments; and whose frown was our
terror-the probabilities are that
s the only comment on his demise
would be that he was thrice the
I Democratic nominee for the Pres
I idency, was a fine lecturer and an
editor Of no particular brilliancy.
In fact the notices of his death
= would be in the nature Of an in
PRODUCTION of him to people who
= never heard Of him or who had
forgotten that such a person ever
4 lived.
SO the exit Of this magnificent
actor on the political stage Of on
ly a few years ago, without com
ment and without any especial
notice, causes no surprise. But
O.
The Lexington intelligencer. [volume] (Lexington, Mo.) 1901-1949, 1910-09-03

questioned the qudllJN OF eh0
truth he had discerned. He was
not content with the defense of
them and it. He found his
duty at all times to lie in attack.
The result was that fighting in
attack made him mereileSs, be-
cause it made him a political ia
matte. He relied on his tongue,
which dripped with the dis
tillation of SloeS, rather than the
convincing logic of which he was
capable. He possessed the pow
ers of ridicule which no ar
NOR has ever been able to ward,
In fact he was a bitter, acrid, pug
nacious man, made so, by SINGER
ity and morality of mind. The
result was that he was feared,
not loved; his views commented
on, not %applauded, and the
strength which he gathered about
him would have turned from him
at any moment for a weaker but
lovelier character.
The greatness of Carlisle, the
superiority of Carlisle over these
two, consisted of his possession of
a mind which would not COM
promise the truth after it had
discovered it. The right or
wrong of a principle was what
he sought for. and it would not
be diverted in its search by pos
Sible bad results to himself or his
party or his client. He had
not sarcasm or ridicule. He did
not affect oratory or florid dis
play in his speeches or his adj
dresses. He knew no tricks in
politics or in practising law.
He was never known to say a
bitter thing against his enemies. If
he won a case in court OR won a
victory in politics it was because
he was on the right side and not
the wrong side, and could show
it by an argument which a child
could understand. He was loyal
to principles as was Reed and as
was not Butler. But he prefer
red the defense rather than the
attack in protecting them. He
was courageous, though he has
been charged with timidity. For
it required a brave man in pol
tiles to breast the storm when his
party in 1896 declared for the es-
adjustment of a double standard
for money. The party looked to
him and would have awarded him
with anything in its power if he
would but bow his head in assent
to its new idea. But he would
not. His mind had placed him in
opposition to hat idea, because it
had determined it to be wrong in
economics and dangerous to the
country. He made a speech
in oppositiOn-a speech which
was never successfully answered,
and will never be-and the storm
hurled him out of public life. AS
he was incapable of bitterness, so
he was incapable of resentment
In his own State rotten eggs were
thrown at nina disgrace to that
great old Commonwealth which
can never be effaced. He made
no complaint, but quietly moved
away. He was charged with
corruption. in the sale of lands
during Cleveland's administra-
ton. But he went on his way
as if he heard not.
Slandered and discarded by his
party which he had done so much
to strengthen by his labors fol-
wise and impartial politics, de.
prived by death of his children
and his wife, to whom he was de.
voted, he bore a burden in his
last days that few men are con.
demned to bear. And when his
heart ceased to beat this country
had never before lost a greater
or a better man.

Solutely forbade him from de-
scending from the heights where
Natures intellectual endowment
had placed him to a lower plane
where the instruments of de-

specious reasoning were alone
considered worth while.
Mr.. Cleveland said, after a
close intimacy with him as a
member of the Cabinet, that he
never had a clouded thought. In
my opinion, this was a mistake.
What he should have said was
that his conclusions admitted of
no contradiction after the prob
lem or question came from the
alembic of that marvellous mind.
That alembic was inStantaneously

the matter which was to be pour

Mr.. Cleveland the man was a mar

mind automatically accurate
and a swiftness with which moth

Wonderful Work of Cow.

According to modern standards of
measurements Of dairy COW, one that
gives 5000 pounds of milk year, is
but an ordinary mixer. And yet to
elaborate this amount of milk, this
cow must manufacture not less than
780 pounds of milk solids The cow
may weigh more than 500 or 800
pounds, and the dry matter of her body
is only the half of this amount, so we
see the cow may manufacture new
material annually amounting to more
than twice that contained in her own
body. To do this wonderful work she
must be in the best of physical con-
dition and must have an abundance
Of material containing the elements
she needs.

SERMONETTES.

Many believe in the discipline OF
suffering, providing others take it.
Many talk so freely of religion be-
cause they have never met the real
thing.
It's no use praying for your hus-
band while the potatoes are getting
scoIched.
When a man has his religion in his
wife's name, he always kicks on his
taxes.
The trouble with the selfconscious
saint is that he never knows his true
self.
The mushroom of emotionalism usu-
ally pities the slow growth of the tree
OF character.
If you would be- at peace with your
self you must be willing to be at war
with some one.
Many saint eats pickles and cream
and then goes to sleep waiting for a
vision from God.
1t is easy to make the Bible curse
By using it as barrier between you
and your brother.
You can no more become piOus by
studying theology than you can be-
come pilot by the study of charts.
Some men must regard religion as
row boat, because they are never sure
they're headed for religion unless
they're facing the other way.

buy will always be ready to sell you
out.
Don't fail to observe that only a

Don't overpay for the goodness you
get by refusing to be good until you
know it pays
Don't overlook the big command
ments by spending all your time on
the little ones.
Don't talk about giving your heart
to your Lord and try to prove it by
heartlessness to men.
Don't fail TO note the difference be-
tween trying to have people like you
and learning to like them.
Don't overlook the fact that lamps
are known not by the racket they
make, but by their radiance.
Don't hesitate to make people think
better of themselves if you would wor-
nv less over your own epitaph.
Don't fail TO learn the difference be-
tween being blind to the faults of
friends and winking at their vices.
