There could be nothing better

bear fruit. From this they get in

things. Let Memphis give the child
all he wants to eat and the Joy of
gathering nuts, and he will have
civic pride and never forget his

goes. Waiting eight years for his

Mr.. BRYAN Under Fire.
Columbia Record.

Columbia Record.
Just at this time Mr.. Bryan Is COM
ing in for a lot Of Hearst-led criticism.
So far as We know. Mr. Bryan's sole
error is in not giving enough publicity
to the work of the State department.
That does not actually give rise to, but
really permits a lot of t1is criticism.
For instance, he has been reproved
for going about the country on lee
ture tours. We have been told by
persons in a position to judge, and to
know, that Mr.. Bryan keeps up with
his work more closely than any other
secretary We have ever had, and that
his desk is always clear, or he is
always ready to act upon whatever
come up.
Mr.. Bryan's espousal of the prohi-
bition cause and his manner Of dis
tributing patronage have been citicised
quite recently, especially in connec-
ton with the rumor that he wishes to
go to the senate. We think lie would
do the country great eservice in the
senate, coming as he does with an in
innate knowledge Of the inside work
of the government.
A writer in Northern paper thus
aportrophizes Mr.. Bryan, and IT is
strong and wortnily bestowed en-
conium:
"Just coming into his own is our
beloved Bryan. Yet little while and
the whole world will appreciate the
fact that both our beloved president
and secretary of state our men OF
destiny.
"SGod works in mysterious ways His
wonders to perform and thus we see
this nation with a Washington in time
of dire need, Jefferson and his Dec
laration Of independence, a Lincoln
with his immortal saying that this
nation under God shall not perihs
from the earthly and a God-loving Nc
Kinley in turn.
MAY I suggest that instead OF Of
fering Mr.. Bryan salary to keep him
away from his lecturing tours you use
every means at your command to as
sist him in his work. of teaching the
people of this great nation tnat we
must breast the hills of hatred and
stem dark errors food in order that
We may take our God-intended place
as leader of the nations of earth?"
When Mr.. Root was secretary Of
state he was not criticised for having
other sources of revenue. lMr. Bryan's
chautauqua lectures were not giving
so mucn concern except for tie fact
that he was welding a powerful infu-
ence over the people whom he saw,
face to face, and this was hurting. We
agree with the New York citizen quot
ed above. 1t would be good thing if
Mr.. Bryan could and should spend sew
eral months going among the people,
teaching the principles of pure democ-
racy and repeating his lecture on "Tae
