Old Glory and fight US from trenches
on the other side Of the Atlantic!
hope I am understood.
1t is passing strange that our people
cannot see the existing he stility Of
the European powers as plainly exen-
pllfed in their united refusal to have
exhibits at the coming Of the great
San Francisco exposition. The open
ing of the isthnlian canal will after
awhile, be the opening of Pandora's
box arising from opposition by foreign
government to our method Of control
Mr.. Wilson recognizing the gravity of
the situation, has honestly invoked aid
from our people, regardless Of party to
assist him in his efforts to relieve the
dire distress that enshrouds the re-
public, and he who now impedes his
patriotic attempt, is a traitor to his
country. I am surprised that The Pen
sacola Journal, the leading daily Of
Florida, does not come out oftener
in denunciation of these villaninous
attacks upon Bryan. Col. Mayes may
well retort that Bryan is amply able
to tote his own skillet to use
honely phrase, and that these SLAM
derous attacks are too pusillanimous
to deserve the notice of any reputable
paper. This is all very true. perhaps,
but I want to tell Col. Mayes that the
honor and integrity Of our govern
ment is being assailed by these insfd-
ious attacks upon the secretary Of
state.
Now why these base attacks upon
Bryan by the reactionary press of the
country? I will give the reason and
then I am done. The trusts and allied
corporate interests of this country an
tagonistic to the policy of Mr.. Wilson
and fearing that he may succeed in his
pledges to curb monopoly and to re-
sist expressions Of combined capital,
are organized to oppose him; and fear
ing that Bryan If not discredltd, will
loom up in 1916 as a presidential can
didate for nomination; therefore, they
have passed the word to their paid
Enthusiastically paid-to so persis-
tentIy vilIify and misrepresent Bryan
that ne will be politically dead before
this administration closes. I will say,
that all this labor will be lost; for
VIM. J. Bryan, If he lives, will as GER
tain1y be the presidential nominee of
his party in 1915, as that the sun
shines at noon day. He may not be
elected, but if he is not, even in his
defeat he will be The Greatest Living
American.

one thing that I have most ad-
mfred about Mr.. Roosevelt, with al
his VagarAeS, is. that he is true
American. Individuals may rfdicule his
prominent inctsors, his eyeglasses and
his South African hunting, or his E
Caney charge, but they never can dim
the Iuseer of his fame acquired, IN
assisted, IN promoting peace between
two great nations-a diplomatic feat

courts. while he spoke no word in
disp of the people whom he
addressed, he ret them understand
that he, Teddy, considered Uncle Sam

Powers. This thought. Europe deeply
resented and has never forgotten or
forgiven. Mr.. Roosevelt is not of my
party, but have long ago reached
that age where I am willing to do JUS
t1ce 20 the merits of any individual
irrespective OF nationality, creed, or
party, as I see them.
In reference to these stories Of
Bryan's touring the country with a
troupe Of mountebanks on q stated
salary, 1t may be asserted that these
European journals that are publishing
theSs fabrtcatfons, do not believe in
their verify, but write them in jest,
merely. Now I ask why should they
not credit them? A great many Of
our own people credit them. When
such American dailies as the Brooklyn
Eagle, Macon Telegraph, Savannah
NAyUG gfrs8aaa 4 To
sonvtlle Times Union and other great
dailies claiming to be supporters Of
the administration, publish these fab
relations with favorable comment. and
when in every issue their paragrapners
never fail to larnpoon Mr.. Bryan and,
by 1nnuendo, cast a slur upon the in
tegrIty of the administration, I ask is
1t any wonder that foreigners believe
that Mr.. Bryan is a tin horn states
man, political empiric, an insuffer-
able boor, in fact, everything in the
calendar, that denotes weakness and
Vacillatfon which he is continually be-
Ing denominated by these reactionary
papers? When these papers attack the
adni observation-disclosures Mr.. Bryan of
coarse-in it's attitude upon the Mexi-
can question, the isthmian canal policy
and the japanese situation, is it any
wonder that representative foreign
papers feel that they can heap ridicule
and abuse upon our leading states
man, and sneer at, and deride the gen
ius of American institutions, with i'm
punity?
I coneede the right of every citizen
of this country to criticize our of
fcia1s and to differ from the admins
tration on matters of public policy but
when any class of our people join in
abuse of America, for Gods sake let
them renounce their frail allegiance to

LIGHTNING FROM FOG BANK
Captain Of Pacific Coast Schooner
Tells Of Strange Bombardment
Of His Vessel.

Capt. A. Sunderberg Of the steam
schooner Wasp, which plies between
Seattle and California ports, reports a
strange experience at sea on August I.
In a report made to the Hydro
graphic Office Captain Sunderberg
says that at 10 p. M, when six miles
east by south of Point Conception,
his vessel ran into a thick fog bank
which hung close to the water.
Without the fog rising in the least,
a violent electric storm broke out, and
for one hour and IA minutes the blan-
ket Of heavy mist was pierced contin-
ually by discharges of atmospheric
electricity and vivid flashes Of angular
zigzag and forked lightning. At 1915
a. M. August s, the steel foremost OF
the Wasp became charged with cleo
tricity from the top down to the spring
stay. Captain ~Sunderberg says this
was not the usual display of st. Elmo
fire, as the mast gave out loud reports
as If from a powerful wireless appara-
tus.
While the vessel was bombarded by
lightning which coursed down her
main mast, her officers and crew did
not venture on deck.

Fire Without Flame.

An English engineer named Bode
has invented q way to have fire with
out fame. His apparatus consists Of
a porous plate or mass Of ~fire-resist,
ing fragments. within which he mixes
infiammable gas and air in the right
proportions.
When the gas IL first turned on and
lighted It burns with a fame at the
surface Of the plate. When the air ID
turned an the flame disappears, but
the heat increases. A temperature Of
5000 degrees Is claimed.
Just what use Of this invention car
be made 10 yet q question.
