CLARK'S HATRED OF BRYAN

SHE whole country is aware Of
Speaker Clark S implacabla hatred OF
William J. Bryan 1t is the belief OF
the Speaker that Bryan stood between
him and the presidency; that but for
that fiery denunciation of the Nebrask-
an at the Baltimore Convention Clark
would have been the Democratic nomi-
nee and the next president. This
rankles in the breast of the Speaker
and it is not likely the breach between
the two will ever be bridged, hence
the story from Washington that Speak
er Clark will mince no words in as
surfing President Wilson that the APP
pointment of Bryan to a Cabinet posi-
ton will spell trouble between the adj
ministration and the Democratic DOM
ination of the House
1t is true that the attacks made by
Mr.. Bryan in the Baltimore Convention
on Belmont, Ryan and Murphy pre-
vented the nomination of Clark. but
there is little to warrant the claim that
the Speaker, if nominated under the
conditions that prevailed at the con
vention. would have been elected Pres
ident In the light of recent events
there is nothing quite so plain as that
the country would have rejected Clark.
for he could never have enlisted the
sentiment that swept Wilson into
victory.
Speaker Clark may regard Bryan
with bitterness for having deprived
him of the nomination, but when he
accuses the Nebraskan Of keeping him
from the White House he goes too far
for had he received the nomination h.
would now have been among the dead
and down political timber. Bur while
this is true we do not credit the story
that Speaker Clark will protest against
the appointment of Bryan to a Cabinet
position, because We do not believe h.
is the sort of man who viii allow a
personal grievance to make him forget
his duty to his party.
The Democrats were kept OUT o..
power for sixteen years because of i'm
ternecine feuds and now that the party
is again in the seats of the mighty. ,
Yeterau like Speaker Clark is the last
person in the world whom we should
believe capable of reopening old sores
1t is not the first time that men VII.
do not speak to each other and who's
political and social relations hav,
been seryered, are part and parcel o
the same administration, but big
minded men do not permit this fact t,
lessen their ardor for party harmony
which is the prime essential to part,
success.

Z = = = = I
ADVICE TO THE FAT
= = = = = = = = Z = Z 4
Sleep out little; never eat
Anything that's fat or sweet
Shun tobacco, alcohol;
Eat potatoes not at all
Beans, rice, pudding, pies abhor,
Never pass your plate for more.
With your meals no water take,
Walk until your muscles ache.
Exercise an awful lot,
Especially if the weather's hot.
Hngry always leave the table,
Eat as little as yo'r able
if you're really faint for food.
Unbuttered toast is very good;
Or if that does not suffice,
Two or three stewed prunes are nice
Milk and cream you must taboo,
Sugar in your coffee, too
Try this plan two months or three
And III give my guarantee
The advice | give is true
And you'll lose a pound or two.

THE PARCEEs'POsT SYSTEM

To-day as the first of the New Year
marks the inauguration of the parcels
post vstem in the United States. This
system has been worked out with the
greatest care by the experts employed
in the United States postoffice depart
ment, and it is believed that it has
solved difficult problem in regard to
transportation in competition to the
express companies.
One Of the main arguments of those
in favor of the government control Of
public utilities is that the parcels post
system will be the first step in the di-
recton of the absorption by the gov
eminent of the express companies OF
the country. Governmental ownership
and control Of these utilities has been
argued powerfully and at length by
many and these will hail with asnecial
delight tho establishment Of tba par-
