The lemon tlmt Mr. Hearst handed Mr. Bryan was of the bitterest Ulnd. Mr. Tuft will not fight Mr. Fornker In Ohio. This makes the Democrats very unhappy. The youiiK il | wll ° | B ambitious to maUo n. ri'conl ' for himself now seeks a poHlllon In n phonograph factory. Vermont haa the mime of being the Kranlto Blnte hut Pennsylvania really produces more of the stone thnn any other state In the union. An Alabama editor thinks It a shame to Ho to a candidate , , perhaps , hut at Unit's It would be cruel to tell them the truth. Col. Gnffvy of Pennsylvania labels Ilryan as the most arrogant , impudent , dominating , devastating boss the Democratic party has ever known. Mr. Tnft's record shows no silver blunders but Is filled with golden deeds. He needs no silver tongucd oratory. Ills work speaks for him. President Gould of Cornell univer sity well says : "We nil need n fresh baptism of political Idealism , a new consecration to the old fashioned Re publican faith of the fathers. " In everyday homo nnd business llfo wo soon como to realize that courtesy may exist without love , but love with out unfailing courtesy Is a very poor apology for the real article. Did anyone notice any similarity be tween Teddy's platform and Bryan's platform ? According to "tho peer less" all Ideas and policies advocated by Roosevelt originated under the hat of William Jennings. It Is to the everlasting shame of the American nation that while China Is making a desperate effort to abolish the opium tralllc , America and west ern countries arc pouring In Intoxi cating liquors enough to wreck the whole people. Secretary Garileld Is making a thor ough and sweeping Investigation of the department of the Interior. The reclamation service is coming In for a change and there tire forthcoming changes in the method of conducting Indian affairs. The "Night Riders" In Kentucky are growing bolder and more lawless They recently destroyed three sta tions on the Illinois Central for re venge. There is going to bo work for more than one company of mllltla unless such depredations can be stopped. Again the railroads are urging fuel users to lay In their stocks for the winter before the movement of crops begins. Officials say that unless the coal movement Is heavily In creased during the next two weeks there Is sure to be another traffic congestion such as tied up shippers throughout the west two years ago. The Denver platform ridicules the new emergency currency law and many of the most conservative people In the country agree with them Ii this point , but In proposing the greenback cure for currency Inflation In times of crisis , It proves that the Democratic party is still laboring under the old hallucinations on the money question. The death of Bishop Potter re moves one of the most lovable am useful men In public life. Bishop Potter was always earnest and sin cere In his own belief but was toleran of the views of others. In his death the church has lost a wise am capable leader , and the nation n valuable citizen whoso example wa an Inspiration. The fight against rats Is going or with Increasing vigor. New sins ar being laid at the rodent's door. Ho I now accused of conveying leprosy a well as the dreaded bubonic plague In England it Is estimated that th rats have damaged crops to the valu of J2SO.OOO.OOO. Rat clubs are beln organized and prizes offered for th death of the largest number. Th plan is n good ono and should b taken up In the United States. Duluth sounds a strong no o o prosperity this week and tells of reversal of conditions nt the bcglnnin of the year. Mills , mines , factorle are all after help and thousands o men are needed In the harvest Held where a great crop Is ready for th harvesters. Once more jobs ar limiting men In good old Ropubllca stylo. Remarkable progress Is being mad la the perfection of the airship. On ttalnment Is that machines can he nvlgated against the wind current ml the steering gear Is so Improved ml the alrBhlp Is almost na easy to ontrol as an nutommobllc. Those ho live fifty years from now will In II possibilities see airship trnnsporta- Ion vlelng with railroads for ntronage. Within a few days a committee of lepulilicnns are going to Cincinnati o tell .Judge Tnft that he has been omlnnted for the presidency. How low some people are. We knew that lore than a month ago. The .Japanese It seems are pro gressing very fast with American bus- ness methods. They have been dls- overed practicing the art of rebating u their railroad which runs through lanchurla. Henry Phlpps , the Plttsburg million- , lre and philanthropist , has recently loimted $ . " 0(1,000 ( to .John Hopkins mil- erslty for the founding of a hospital or the study and treatment of mental ilseases. If brevity is the soul of wit , the rohlbitlonlsts must he conceded to > o the wittiest lot in the hunch. Their declaration of principles enun- ilated nt their recent national conven- Ion contains but three hundred words. E. H. Gary , chairman of the steel : orporatlon said last week : "From the itnmlpolnt of the steel corporation , he Iron and steel business has been letter during the last two weeks than U any time since the depression of ast October. It Is now Tnft and Sherman on the lepubllcan ticket , Bryan and Kern on he Democratic , Watson and Williams on the Populist , Debs and Hanford on he Socialist and Clallln and Patnole on the Prohibitionist. You pay your money and take your choice. A popular magazine has on Its first cover page the Information that its Vugust issue is an "Uplift number" vhlle the last page of the cover con- contains a large cigarette advertise- iient. How many boys are so uplifted : o the insane asylum or the skies ? Business interests arc not anxious for changes In the presidency unless he administration has proved unsatls- 'actory. As a general proposition one successful term In the presidency pro- llsposes the public to n second term. Mr. Bryan and his running mate , Mr. Kern , have one common ground of sympathy. They both have tasted re peated defeat in the attainment of their ambition for public olllce , Mr. Kern having been twice defeated for governor of Indiana. Strenuous efforts are being made to Induce women to emigrate to South Africa. No other class of emigrants are welcome there now. Three hun dred and fourteen went there from England last year , most of them teach ers , and all found ready engagements at the Cape. France has long been In the lead over other nations in the use of balloons in military experiments , but Count Leppelln's recent triumph puts Germany In the lead and Emperor William now plans to make the air ship an Important feature In the Ger man military establishment. Information has been obtained against an organized ring in Los Angeles - geles for smuggling Chinese coolies Into the United Statees all along the Mexican frontier. The department ol Labor and Commerce are making an effort to control It. The United States Steel corporatior Is closing a deal with the Russlar government for ono million tons ol steel rails to bo used in relaying the entire Trans-Siberian railroad. The Russians have found the rails in us ( are altogether too light. It will take two years to fill the contract. Judge E. H. Gary of the Steel Cor poratlon , said just before sailing foi Europe , "Conditions are Inmprovlnj all along the line. Nothing Is lack Ing to a return to complete prosperity except the entire confidence of th < business world In the election of the Republican candidates. Many people believe that if the ; arc not indebted to their neighbo ; for goods purchased , and have dls charged their obligation to the stati or municipality by paying their taxes that nothing more can bo expected o them. But in reality a man's duty t ( his neighbor Is limited only by hli power to do his neighbor good am his duty to the community by hli ability to be of service to It. The prohibition platform Is a rolle in ono way. It Is at least commend ably brief. It contains the conclsi statement of fourteen different prln clples , headed by planks for a pro hlbltlon amendment to the constitu tlon. Instead of occupying a full pager < or more of Irrelevant swaggei Inuendo , and so called argument , I can easily be accommodated In i of a column of newspaper ipu'ce. The return to full time operation hy n miiiiber of New England cotton mills has been the latest of the re turn of general trade prosperity In that section. A leading manufacturer said very recently : "Prices tire better , the demand for goods Is better , and there Is n better fee-ling In the cotton goods business all around. " There are now twelve successful Hying machines In existence of which two are American. Dr. Alexander Graham lit 11 predicts that these air ships will teen be used for pleasure and very likely for carrying malls. Ho opines that five years hence the light swift travel of the world will re quire neither rail nor macadam. Editor Hemphlll of the Charleston News and Courier says that within the piist few years Senator Tllman lias flatly denied Interviews which he has given to him and other news paper jnen and charitably adds "when the senator is talking he Is not con scious of more than ono third that pours off his tongue as the waters come do\\n the cataract of Lodore. " Great Interest is felt throughout the country In the successful develop ment of Thomas E. Edison's concrete house which he proposes to so per fect that nn entire house can be cast In one piece by using enormous moulds. He believes that It will be possible to construct comfortable dwellings much quicker and cheaper than of any other building material. Editors of newspapers In Russia do not have an enviable position. From June to October last year eighty-four newspapers were suppressed , thirty- live editors put In prison , three exiled , one hundred nnd thirty-three news papers lined and sixty editors had criminal proceedings taken against them. Under theses conditions the opinions expressed by Russian edi tors will never have much weight In America and Europe. Japan Is to have a new capitol buildIng - ' Ing at Toklo costing $12,000,000. Mr. Hayashida , chief secretary of the Japanese parliament , is In America with a staff of architects inspecting public buildings to gain new Ideas con cerning modern methods of construc tion. He declares that Japan would shudder nt the thought of war with the American nation to whom she owes so much. However , Mr. Hobson may have later Information to the effect that war has been declared. The New York Independent In its editorial columns In most vigorous lan guage pronounces Richard Pearson Hobson a public nuisance and dis grace with his never changing cry of war. President Roosevelt has elected him an active member of the Ananias club nnd the public is heartily tired of his vociferous shouts for bat tleships and war paraphanalia. Thomas W. Lawson in his long tele gram of congratulation to Mr Bryan upon his nomination expressed the be lief that he would be elected and the country would have four years contin uation of Rooseveltlan policies under his administration , after which Roosevelt velt would again be elected to the executive ofllce. Mr. Lawson Is al ways advancing peculiar Ideas and this prophecy seems more than usually Improbable. For the first time In many years Judge Taft is a private citizen and enjoying himself being one. He has been in public life for so many years and no man Is better acquainted with the needs of the people than he Is. That he will make good is no doubt. That he will be elected there Is less. And when he leaves the ofllce to which he has been nominated ho will be as popular with the people as his worthy predecessor. One of the most notable sales of rare autographs that London has known In years has begun. American collectors are well represented at the auction and are likely to carry ofl many of the rarities. Among the eminent authors whoso letters or manuscripts will be auctioned off arc Sir Walter Scott , Charlotte Bronte , Samuel T. Coleridge , Charles Dickens , Alfred Tennyson , Robert Burns and William M. Thackeray. Prof. Richard D. Harlan In an ad' dress before the National Association of Manufacturers in New York on the need of special training for the consular service said : "Every Intel llgent American will agree to twc propositions. The first Is that some1 where in the United States there s should be at least ono special training school for this service whoso whole curriculum Is shaped with the one end In view of training men to serve the country In the extension of its foreign commerce. The second prop osltlon Is that the stragetlc loca tlon for such a school Is at the nn tlonal capital. " Tin Is a matter In which every county of every state If Interested. Our foreign commerce IE mooting with fiercer competition over ) yinr. I'pon Its enlargement our future prosperity depends. To Increase It we must have men who know what they are about to represent us In e\ery foreign country. lot tills need be imitated In every locality until It Is adequately Illled. A rirnor that a MOO.000,000 merger or combine to control the yellow pine Industry of the United States has IK en formed. Is floating through bus iness circles but Is scouted as rldlcu- I'tus by the lumbermen who are hold'ng their semi-annual association In Chicago. Lurse holdings of south ern lumbermen have been purchased by Weyerlmusor nnd other St. Paul lumbermen. One member of the asso ciation advanced the opinion that unless heroic methods were taken to protect the remaining lumber supply tint n frame IIOUBO would soon be nn expensive affair. Great Interest Is being taken by the people In the declarations of the two great national parties and there Is no doubt as they become better no qualnted with both platforms , that the Republican articles of faith and prac tice will be the ones that will receive i the endorsement of the big majority i of the people * of the land. There can be no doubt of the outcome. The nation demands a continuation of the policies and methods of the adminis tration that is now in force , and their completion nnd perfecting Is only pos sible through the triumphant election of the Republican national ticket and the returning to the national congress of representatives who are in hearty sympathy with them. A successful lawyer after closing an able lecture to a class of law students , said : "Now I am going to give you some unasked for advice. Every one of you hopes to succeed and have mapped out a course of action which you believe will land you at the goal of your ambition. There Is one course 1 of action that will secure it though few of you will believe In it enough to practice it. The man among you who gets to the office ten minutes : before , anyone else In the morning and stays twenty minutes after everyone else | has gone at night wilt succeed as a ! lawyer. " He might have added that would succeed in whatever calling he followed. Dr. Dudley A. Sargent , the director of the Harvard gymnasium has kept the record of the student's height , weight , etc. , for the past twenty-five years and during that time he finds that the average weight of the under graduate student has Increased from four to eight pounds and the average height an Inch. This Increase Is noted throughout the United States. While in England a marked deterioration is observed in size and strength , it is gratifying to know that a more Intel ligent attention to exercise and out door sports , more careful preparation of foods and a more universal use of fruits are raising the physical stand ard In this country. The city of Chester , Pa. , has been the scene of a remarkable object les son Illustrating the effectiveness of the boycott. For three months the strike of the Chester street car em ployes was supported by a boycott of the public against the street car com pany. As a result the city's trade has been paralyzed , values have de preciated , a heavy public debt has been piled up and the public has finally repudiated the boycott. The city of Chester has suffered the loss of n large manufacturing plant which had Intended to locate there , as well as many valuable citizens and profes sional men. The town Is being avoided as a strike town nnd it will be years before the city regains the position and prosperity which It has lost. The announcement by Mr. Bryan that he will only nsk for ono term In the white house will not occasion much of a stir In political circles , simply because the contingency of the request to serve the first term Is entirely too remote to take second term Into consideration. Had ho made the announcement that should he tall to be elected he would not ask the Democratic party to nom inate him again , such an announce ment would have been received with a great deal of attention. As It Is It looks as If the Democratic party because of this man's ambition was bottled up for at least sixteen or twenty years longer , for Mr. Bryan is In good health , has a fine physique and nn audacity that is good for an Indefinite period. New York has been forced by Its rapidly increasing population to In crease its water supply. To do this It found was no easy task. In fact , the problem was tremendous and startling. The only available water supply was that In the Catsklll mountains nnd to utilize this re quires the construction of a reser voir in the mountains which will sub merge twelve square miles of country nnd seven villages. The reservoir will hold 130,000,000,000 gallons of water nnd an equeduct ninety miles long will bring 500,000,000 gallons dally to the city. It Is one of the' ' greatest construction enterprises over , undertaken and the cost Is estimated , at $102.000,000. Five thousand cngl-1 neers , contractors and workmen are now at work on the great project. Grover Cleveland , although not n literary man. In his own way hit ipnn numerous phrases which caught the ear of the people and have become nn abiding part ot our common Ian * minge. It was ho who first said , "Pdbllc office Is a public trust. " who turned the connlvlngs of officials In public olllce "pernicious activity , " nnd those who Indulged In such activity "offensive partisans. " He declared "it Is a condition that confronts us , not a theory ; that "honesty Is party ex * pedlency. " Ills original expressions "ghoulish glee" and "Inocuous desue tude" have been very popular , while the bon mot "We love him for the enemies he has made" which was called fonh at the ? second Democratic convention which nominated him , has always chnvg to him. The Democratic party is nlways lioslng as the special friend of the laboring man , nnd yet in Its platform this year it demands that the tariff shall be revised by a sweeping cut of duties. This would mean that the reduction in revenue received from foreign goods would be so great that the government would he compelled to close most of Its customs houses and our markets would bo flooded with foreign goods. It means that Amer'can ' factories would close their doors and millions of working men would find themselves with nothing to do. Happily the laboring man of America Is Intelligent and thinks for himself. He has a memory that reaches back to the last Democratic administration with its tonp houses and Its Idleness. They may bo fooled occasionally , but they can't be fooled twice In the same way in the same generation. Great as is the prld6 of the Amer ican people In their great ( loot now sailing around the world as a dem onstration of the wealth and power of the nation , bearing 12,700 enlisted men whose strength is estimated as equal to 330,000 horse power , the value to the nation of this fleet plowing the seas sinks into Insignificance when com pared to the ten million persons en gaged in using agricultural Implements which plow the land. During the twelve months plows are at work In the United States turning furrows which if placed end to end would be equiva lent to seventeen round trips to Mars or 70,000 circumnavigations of the earth. This is the great Amer ican fleet , the one to which we all look for the necessities of existence. This fleet wages a silent warfare and the press notices are few and head lines small , but a catastrophe to this fleet means more suffering and loss than would be entailed by disaster to the entire navy. There have been several speeches at the National Convention of the great political parties In the past which will live as remarkable efforts of oratorical power. Mr. Garfield's speech at the Chicago convention which resulted in his nomination for the presidency was a magnificent ap peal to the dignity and power of the people. Mr. Bryan's fervent oratory at Chicago in 190C , which resulted in his nomination was perhaps in Its way never surpassedbut the most per fect piece of oratory of recent times was probably that of Robert J. Inger- sell , when he presented the name of James G. Blalne to the Republican Na tional convention In 1SSO. Mr. Inger- soil in part said : "Like an armed warrior liked n plumed knight , James G. Blalne marched down the halls of the American congress and threw his shining lance full and fair against the brazen forehead of every traitor to his country and every mallgner of Its fair reputation. In the name of the great republic , the only re public that ever existed on the face of the earth ; in the name of all her defenders and all of her supporters ; In the name of all her soldiers living ; in the name of all her soldiers that died upon the field of battle , and In the name of those that perished in the skeleton clutch of famine at An- derson-vlllo and Llbby , whose suf ferings he so vividly remembers Illinois nominates the next president of this country , that prince of parlia mentarians , the leader of leaders , James G. Blalne. " CITY LIGHTING. For years there has been a popular demand for a better lighted Norfolk a system of lighting that would reach to nil portions of the city , giving every Inhabitant the same Impartial opportunity to be lighted to Ills homo on a dark night. The opportunity was presented to the council at its meetIng - Ing Tuesday evening , and , unaccount able ns It may seem , the best propo sition ever offered was defeated by the council. The proposition offered the city by the Norfolk Electric Light and Power company contemplated just what has been wanted for years a street light at every Intersection. The plan was to place -10-cnndlo power Tungstoii light over the center of every street Intersection except where arc lights were to be used In the bus iness portion of town. To do this It was figured that It would require 127 rungston lamps and six arcs , and tlues , operated on the moonlight-mid night schedule , would cost the city the sum of $ lti.7fl ! ) per month , ns against $112 for the fourteen arc lights and thirty-six gas lights which are no used to partially light the city. This would give a strong light at every Intersection at nn In crease In cost over present arrange ments of $27.70 per month. When the difference In service Is considered It would seem that the council would have jumped at this kind of a propo sition , but they didn't , for they turned It down by a vote of three to five. A good deal of criticism Is heard con cerning the action of the council , In that they failed to take advantage of a good blislness proposition when It was offered them. INSURING BANK DEPOSITS A man who could bo caught sin cerely by the cheap plated arguments for free silver , ns Mr. Bryan undoubt edly was , Is also the man to be taken by the shallow arguments in favor of a guarantee of bank deposits. This Is going to bo a favorite theme of Ills during the coming campaign ; and It will not stand examination any better thnn the cheap money theory did. This plan of guaranteeing the de posits of national banks Is something so new that comparatively few people can understand It. If they wll. read an artcile on the subject In the \"i \ number of Scrlbner's magazine , writ ten by Prof. J. Laurence Laughlln , than whom there Is no higher author ity in the country , the whole subject will be made plain. In the first place , It would not , be cause it could not , accomplish the main e-id desired. This Is said to be to provide , by taxation , a fund suffi cient to pay to depositors the money they may have tied up In suspended banks , so tlmt they may not have to wait the slow process of liquidation. The answer is that it would have re- required $100,000,000 last fall to do just this thing ; and no tax contem plates or could raise such a fund without putting an end to the banking business. And there is no more reason for In suring the risks of the banking bus- lues than any other bulness. No man owns a dollar except at some peril. There Is the possibility of loss no matter what he does with It. The risk element cannot bo elmimlnated from life ; and there Is no more reason for trying to take it out of banking than out of merchandising. Finally the crowning objection Is that it would make the banker irre sponsible. He is kept conservative now by the need for such a reputation , if his bank Is to attract depositors. Make loss impossible , and you put a premium on reckless and dishonest banking by relieving from responsi bility and punishment. The whole plan of guaranteeing deposits is wrong. PUBLICITY ASSURED. One of the most servlcable traits of President Roosevelt is his ability to correct a party error when one Is made. If his party made n mistake , he did not howl his head off about It , or split the party wide open in an at tempt to have the action formally reversed ; ho just went ahead and did what was necessary himself. And the party always acquiesced , while he himself grew stronger even than the party. It is clear tlmt Mr. Taft Inherits this valuable quality. He Is not a man to permit himself or his party to bo put in a false position because the party , may , In a minor matter.hnve yielded to unwise counsels. And almost his first act after receiving the nomina tion Is ono that will meet with the heartiest commendation the country over , while It spikes the particular gun which the Democrats had ex pected to roar most loudly during the coming campaign. Mr. Taft an nounces that , by his direction , there will be no absolute publicity of nil campaign contributions and expendi tures. Nobody knows what Influences pos sessed the Republican national conven tion to turn down a proposition looking to this end. It was ono of those mistakes that every convention Is sure to make , because Its attention Is concentrated on other affairs. This doubtless seemed to most members a mere detail , of which the party man ngers should bo permitted to bo judges , and the members were hostile to any change in customs as they al ways are. It was like the refusal to change the basis of representation National conventions are more than timid about innovations. But on this particular point there is a strong public opinion. Revelations have been made about past campaigns that touch very closely a people made newly sensatlvo to the power of the purse In public affairs. They do netlike like the contribution of Harrlman tea a Republican In Now York any better than they do that of a Thomas F. Ryan to the cause of Hryan In No * hrnxldi , They believe that too much money Is solicited on both sides , too much spent , too many obligations In curred. Therefore they rooolvu with the utmost satisfaction the rule of Mr. Taft that there must ho full pub licity. It Is like the man. AROUND TOWN.

Our Idea of wealth is feeling finan cially nblo to contribute to a cam paign fund. A genius IB a mail who knows how to do only one thing , and knows how to do that well. It has probably occurred to every man tlmt ten cents Is too much for a barber shop shine. Some men are just prominent enough to attract people who want to Impose on them. A man who owns a shot gun usually has as many fingers off as a man who works on a railroad. The devil works to get some people that no one else would have if they were given away. When a man IB trying to teach his wife how to play cards , he is more brutal than at any other time. A music teacher is always surprised to find that someone who has not taken lessons Is fond of music. When wo make a statement , and a man Inquires in a certain mean way , "Is that so ? " he makes us mad. Why Is It that every man apologizes to an agent for not Investing in his schemes and Is so bold with his wife ? 15very bore thinks bo's the most agreeable man in town ; that wore It not for his flow of wit , the community would be hopelessly dull. Ho may be a good man but wo don't like him ; the man who Is always sayIng - Ing , "As the poet says , " and quoting what the poet says.
