The address of welcome, by Mrs.

Rrjraa and Roosevelt.
Some of the great newspapers of
our day, such, for instance, as the
Washington Post, the Ne York
Times, and the Philadelphia Press,
are trying very hard to mix up
Roosevelt and bryan. It looks us
if thtse papers were booming Bryan
in the interest of another nomina
tion for Koosevelt.
The Press thicks that Mr. Bryan
wil. be nominaUil, that be is no or
dinary man, and that no Republican
but Roosevelt could defeat him.
The Times is of the same opinion.
The Post sas: "Take the tariff 1
out, and what is the difference be
tw fen Mr. Bryan and Mr. House-1
veil?" And aain: "If Mr. Bryan:
were President wherein would he

bryau opposes the subsidizing of
ship owners, while Koosevelt favors
it. Bryan is opposed to government
by injunction, but Koosevelt favors
it. No two men were ever more
completely and universally opposed
in theory or in practice. Vet we
hear of Koosevelt-Democrat and
Bryan-Kepublicans; and we tind
lioosevtit"s supporteis trying to
create the impres.iioa that he is pur
suing Bryan's iheories The silly
subterfuge is well tinauced, but it
will not work. There is, however,
this similarity in the political situa
tion of Mr. Koosevelt and Mr. L'ryan
says the Courier's Washington cor
respondent. Neither can unite his party in
his own support. Leaving Mr.
Koos..velt's fate to the t.-nder
mercies of his opponents in his
own party, it is most in. fortu
nate t'at Mr. Bryan, w no has
so many staunch friends, eaunot
draw all Democrats to his
standard. If he could, he
would undoubtedly be elected;
for the unsuccessful faction of
the Republicans will be at least
lukewarm for the nominees of
the dominant faction of the
next Republicaa National Con
vention. It may be necessary,
therefore, for the Democratic
Convention to seek some more
available candidate than Mr.
Bryau for the sake of success;
for the minoriiy party must be
united to achieve a victory over
the parly of great moral ideas,
but of endless moral transgress
ions. To Punish Rich Thieve.
Ludwig Nissen, Chairman of the
Diamond Importers' Association
Customs Committee, says smuggling
by rich people who visit Europe,
has assumed colosial proportions.
He declares that as much jewelry
and precious stones are smuggled
every year as is brought in legiti
mately. The value of the latter
class is between $2,000,000 and
$4,000,000. Maiden Lane import
ers are starting a movement to have
smugglers punished more severely.
Too much leniency is now extended
to smugglers caught It is a sad,

toms officers, the Federal courts
and the wealthy tourist class of
Americans, who are generally sup

The l.oxt Chord.
Sir Arthur Sullivan's setting of
"The Lost Chord" has doue more,
doubtless, to make famous the poem
printed hero than have the inherent
beauties of the verses themselves.
But the verses are worthy of their
setting. They were written by
Adelaide Anne Proctor, an author,
whose poems some of them still
known wherever English u spoken
had a wide vogue in the days
when Dickens's Household Words
was the popular English periodical.
Miss Proctor was the daughter of a
poet Bryan Waller Proctor, better
kuowu as "Barry Cornwall". Sue
was born in 1825 and died in 1S(4.
