THE GLEASON REPORT IS DISAPPOINTING.

separate fund theory is carried the extreme in

divides this appropriation into half dozen funds Usually
it allows much for salary much for clerk hire
much for travelling expenses, much for stationery

BRYAN AND WILSON.

The course Mr. Bryan has consistently followed since he
became secretary in the cabinet of President Will
son has we believe discredted him completely in the
minds of the people Of this country He has used his
fee for two purposes both of which dscredtable
him as a and unbecoming to his Office. He has de-
voted himself making money the side, to the neg
lect Of his official duties and rewardng his political
friends the detment Of the service. In the mind of
Mr.. Bryan public office is no less than a
private snap and he has worked his snap for all that
is worth.
1t is impossible to think that President Wilson is
of the activities of the premier of nation and
his chief counselor If the president knows he
approve else is afraid interfere Either view that is
taken makes the president party to all activities of Mr.
Bryan and he too must occupy the position the
public mind. If he approves he is simply letting Mr..
Bryan do the work and shoulder the blame. If he Is
afraid interfere Mr. Bryan is the de faco president of
the United States Either view that you may of this
situation is discredabe to President Wilson than
is to Secretary Bryan. Mr. Bryan has been before the
people three times candidate for president HI has
been rejected three times Now comes President Wilson
who overrdes the verdict of the people by placing him
in ull authority at Washington in payment of debt con
tracted at the Baltimore convention.
The Tribune has no love for Mr. Bryan He has proved
himself retty cheap politician but in comparison with
the President he is shining mark He at least has the
courage OF his convictions He is spokesman pure and
simple and don't give boot who knows it. Mr. Wilson
IS just as much of spokesman but attempts to hide be-
hind the skirts of Mr. Bryan

Two Schoolmatcs of mine happened

Another friend of mine loves to
tell his wife of the probably first time
he was ever near her. Her home
was in an eastern state and rail-
road passed near her fathers house
The locality of that town was noted
for the huge drifts OF snow that would
blockade the railroad in that vicinity
When she was young girl this man
had occasion one winter to take that
road. There was 4 heavy snow storm,
and he had been delayed all day
His train arrived at the town where
