When the Secretary Of State goes
about In his carriage to pay the social
calls that convention makes necessary.
the excursion partakes Of the nature of
an official function. Were he not In
Office, the individual and his family
would be under no obligation to leave
their pasteboards at various homes.
Therefore, the equipage In which he
and his family roll from door to door Is
properly supplied by the Government,
and its Quitting includes the appro-
pirate number OF servants
Mr.. BRYAN found on entering on his
duties that no provision was made for
a footman. an assistant deemed neces-
sary by his predecessors and himself
To supply this lack messenger had
been relieved Of his ordinary duties and
assigned TO the seat beside the coach.
man. Mr.. BRYAN continued this Gus
tom. but added to its observance a de-
tail neglected by the gentlemen who
preceded him In office. Mr.. BRYAN
made note Of the time spent by the
messenger in his secondary capacity as
footman, deducted from his official pay
a sum proportionate to It, and made up
the loss out of his private purse.
1t requires some splitting Of hairs to
recognize that this expense is properly
chargeable to Mr.. BRYAN personally.
The practice Of using the messenger rs
a footman Is sanctioned by respectable
precedent. His pay has heretofore been
allowed by the auditors, a race OF be-
ings not given to approving expendi-
lures that they can find an excuse for
disallowing. Yet Mr.. BRyAN's delicate
sense Of honor prevented him from
taking advantage OF the custom. and
caused depletion Of his pocketbook
that must have been most trying to his
thrifty soul.
Having displayed this punctilious
spirit. there can be no question that
Mr.. BRYAN has carefully audited the
accounts of the Secretary Of State for
the purpose OF protecting the national
Urea sury aa!nst any unfair charge by
that Official. He has undoubtedly kept
vigilant watch over the hours devoted
by the Secretary to Chautau0ua lee
lures, after dinner speaking and polit-
ical harangues, and has scrupulously
deducted from his stated salary an
amount proportionate to the number Of
hours he has not devoted to the ma.
tons business, 40 that the taxpayers
should not be mulcted penny for ser.
vice not performed. That Mr.. BRYAN
has precisely observed In the case Of
the Secretary the rule ne laid down in
the matter Of the messenger footman
must be the opinion Of all who are

sense Of consistency that animates the
Nebraska statesman.

4 New Argument In the Rate Case.

was bound to project himself into the

picions of the prevalence Of Illicit in

material welfare Of the American
people. The Senator ranks high in zeal
among the numerous official and unoffi.

TOILETTE that there Is pretty nearly 100
