Mr.. Bryan as COLLIER. :"

Mr. Bryan has not until now appeared
in the role of ''jollier." Not without
the capacity to pay a handsome compll-
ment, he had impressed the public as
being a serious-minded man, driving at
his ends with serious methods. But this
view underwent revision yesterday, when
the peerless leader gave to the country
a list of men measuring up, he asks the
country to believe, to the presidential
standard The country, out of personal
respect to Mr.. Bryan, will take the lib
erty of smiling. There is Jolly in his
composition, and no mistake.
With what feelings but those of amuse-
ment could New England read in the
list the names of George Fred Williams
of Massachusetts and Gov. Higgins of
Rhode Island? And will Colorado keep
a straight face when she sees the rating
of former Cows. Thomas and Adams,
and former Senator Patterson?
The tickets suggested appeal to the
risibles even more strongly than the in
dividual names. Several are little if any
short of the ludicrous. We have strong
country, dear to the people, and blessed
with a machinery of government which
has stood some severe tests, but the
most confident of our citizens might we'll
shudder to see it pass into some of the
hands Mr.. Bryan suggests.
The mystery attached to Mr.. Bryans
opposition to Gov. Harmon is deepened
by this deliverance. The name of Har-
mon is conspicuous by its absence. But
the name of Henry Watterson appears,
and Mr.. Wattersons opposition to Mr..
Bryan in 1896 was far more vigorous
and outspoken than that of the Buckeye
statesman. In that year the Ohio mans
influence was felt only to the extent of
his place in the Cleveland cabinet. Mr.
Watterson, on the other hand, sent a
cable from Europe, No compromise with
dishonor," and followed that up with
support of Palmer and Buckner. And
yet Mr.. Bryan now esteems Mr.. Waiter
son as of good standing in the party,
and would support him for President
And while the names of Dix and Gay
nor and OGOrman are recorded, the
name of Parker is not. Why the slight?
Only the other day a Parker boom was
launched in this town. Several members
of the House and as many of the Senate,
though unnamed, were quoted as friend
ly to another nomination of the man who
was defeated in 1904. Mr.. Bryan sup
ported the ticket that year. Did he get
enough of Judge Parker then?
In this new role Mr.. Bryan will be
watched with interest. There may be
method in his Jolly. He may have
something concealed, either for himself
or for somebody he has in reserve. The
situation is such that whatever resources
he commands as politician will proba-
bly, have to be brought into play in the
coming twelve months. The anti-Bryan-
ties in the democratic party are better
led now than they have been heretofore

The Handbook Evil.

1t u to be hoped that the crusade of the
United States authorities against the
handbook operators in this District, which
started yesterday with the arrest OF six
men. will be effective in breaking up this
dangerous business. Furthermore, it is
also TO be hoped that in the course OF the
prosecution Of these cases light will be
thrown upon the subject of the recent
police impotence in the enforcement of
the law against gambling.

employe Of the police department directed
public attention to the fact that hand

A Favored Nation

Who would not be
An Eskimo,
Who revels free
Mid ice and snow;
And when nights charm
Brings sleep immense,
Sets the alarm
For six months hence.
He is inclined
To simple toll,
And does not mind
The price Of oil
Or meat or bread
Or cigarettes;
He has no dread
OF suffragettes.
Through fierce July
And August drear
No hot waves fly
His dwelling near.
A thrifty elf.
He gayly goes
And spears himself
A suit Of clothes.
He revels free
Mid ice and snow
Who would not be
An Eskimo!
