The colonel , however , was with the second section , which did not a rrive until about 3 o'clock. We now perh mIt Mr. Davis to continue the narrative , a nd It will be perceived what a conscientious r ecorder Mr. Davis Is : "Vhen the train stopped , Colonel Bryan , a lone and unattended , stepped out on the p latform of the rear Pullman and was g reeted wIth a mighty cheer. The editor go o f the Citizen and that gallant democrat , Peter Brogan of Platte towflbip , were the fi rst , to shako hands with the colonel. ' this memorable occasion it is proper t o malta an accurate record of exactly what saId by all concerned. .4 'Hello , Davis , bow are you ?

' said Peter , 'Many thanlis , ' saii , the colonel. "This memorable and now historical con- vcrsation consumed exactly thirty-nine s econds , and at Its conclusion Mr. Brogan and the Citizen man retired to a less con- s picuous position in the crowd , " The cannon boomed , the bugles sounded , t here were cheers for "William J Bryan , " and there was a whoop , which Mr. Davis describes as "terrific , " for "sixteen to one. " Enthusiastic silverites shouted to tue colonel that they had voted for him in 1S96 and "would do it again in 2DOO. " "Mr , Bryan h ad a hearty handehako and a pleasant smile for alt , " reports Mr. Davis , "and cx- pressed himself as highly pleased at the generous welcome given to him at such a into hour. " But there was no time for a speech , Just as Mr. Brogan and Mr. Davis filth the rest were widening their cars to catch the pearls of political rhetoric that fail so caiiy from the mouth of Vu'iiiiain J. Bryan , the merciless locomotive plllied out f the station. The peerless warrior was on the rear platform.

I'ortunately the sentiment which would have inspired Colonel Bryan's speech at Creston , if ho had bad time to speak before the train pulled out at 3 oclock in the morning , baa been preserved for us in the brief remark of Mr. Peter Brogan of Platte township , as recorded by Mr. S. It. Davis of the Citisen : "I hope to see you ( Colonel Wtiliam , J. Bryan ) commander.in.chtef of the army and navy some day. " That is what the sleepless colonel hopes , like lse ; and that would hare been the substance , if not the exact lauguae , of his speech at Creston , at 3 o'clock In the morn- ing. if a politically unsympathetic locomotive - motive engineer had not opened hii throttie just as the colonel was about to open his mouth to the multitude (1TlIIit . . ? ) 'I'lI.tN 01 115.

Such marriages IlOt necessarily void in the United K ingdom until about sixty years ago , at- t hough they Were voidable and frowned on b y the church , but they have since been f orbIdden. Curiously 000ugil , the most fo rcible argument in favor of tile prohibitIon o f these unions is to be found In the pages o f Home. That. lihilosopler observed that ii i the homes of the common people the most n atural assistant at almost all times , anti e specially iii emergencies , was the sister of t he wife. AS she was unprotected by any n atural guardlun , flume reasoned that , it desirable for the law to surround her w ith the same defense that a sister has a gainst a brother , by causing marriage with h er to be out of the bounds of possibIlity. N o one familiar with the customs of the v arious races of mankind will deny that s imilar laws have often been eiflcachous , b ut it is doubtful if the English law has e ver created the desired sentiment. The b est evidence of this is to be found , not in t he repeated passage of bills legalizing these m arriages through the House of Commons , f or that house has always known that the b ills would not be accepted by the house of L ords , but in the fact that practically all t he colonial legislatures hare adopted siml- m r measures. Of course , these laws hare o nly become operative with the opprorat t he secretary of state of the home govern- m eat , which thus recognizes in one part of t he empIre what it condemns in another. T he result has been that the offspring of t hese colonial marriages hflve been in Eng- l and only partly legitimate. C. . M. Lockroy , the new French minister of marine , in his recently published program f or the French navy , said , among other t hings : "The Spanish-American war has a lready presented circumstances from which w should profit. The success of Admiral Dewey at the Philippines was due to thu r apidity of his action , and this rapidity coul n ot have been obtained but for the swittnesi o f the shlpa he commanded. For the same r eason Admiral Cervera could not conduct h is fleet from Santiago do Cuba , passing , see t o speak , under the nose of the Americans , b ecause their shIps were endowed with a su- P enior speed , Superior speed in war ships I s therefore a prime necessity. You can c omprehend , moreover , the diflicuities per. t aming to the hostile fleets to the SpanIsh fl eet quite as much as the American fleet , i n providing themselves with coal , if some o ne. has said In a general way that money was the sinews of war one may ntflrm that c oal Is the sinews of naval warfare. It is t herefore Indispensable that every power p ossess on the route to its colonies numerous c oaling depots , strongly protected. It does cn n ot appear that France has yet sufficiepily ot ccupied herself with this important ques- t ion , We are a trifle ill-prepared as regards c oaling stations , and our ships , in case of war , woulul risk much , if they had to follow a long ccUrso in order to defend our threat- e ncd colonies , by finding themselves humor- a ble at the anti of a few days' voyage.
