"An a rehident-of tbe National
Cipital, I necessaiily observe, at all
limes, the distinguished member
oi both Houstsof Congress.
"William Jennings Bryan, early
in his career, secured the approba
tion ot all the members of the lower
House of Congress by bis renowned
maiden speech upou the tariff. It
was his introduction to the National
Legislature and to the country at
large. This speech was pronounced
by a distinguished member of the
same C .ingress, and one of the se-
verest as well as ablest ol parlia
mentary ciiiics, the equal in force oi
reasoning, in beauty oi motoric,
felicity ot illustration, and" logical
deduction to any speech delivered
in the House ot Representatives
during hi own service ot many

sotiallv for many years, lie is not
only handsome in person, but has
th.l invalll able nift which was
r.haracieiiz-d bv Lord Chesterfield
as a perpetual letter of introduction
a pleasing' address.
"The result at Chicago was no
mere matter of chance. It was the
student's victory, lor Mr Bryan is
one 61 the few men In public life
.who has cultivated the arts of ora
tory and the graces of rhctoi ic. It
was the ripe student with a ueaitb
of chosen words gathered and

every powerful newspaper in every
large city is engaged in toe same
enterprise. The Republican eos
mittee has all the money it wHnls
tor the'preparation and for the em
ployment of professional speakers
in every nook and corner of the
land. Wo assume that the Demo
cratic leaders anticipated this result
when they set up the silver issue
and chose Mr. Bryan as their stand
ard bearer. They must have known
that, under such circums.anees.lhey
could no longer depend upon the
millionaires ol the East or upon the
great moneyed institutions ol any
section. They have appealed, there
fore, to the masses,-to the common
people among whom their strength
is to be found, and we suppose that
they lock confidently for a prompt
and satisfactory response.
Unquestionably no national cam
paign can be sucoWully conducted
in this part of the world without
i monef. We do not refer to the
money for purposes of bribery and
corruption, bu. to money ior per-
ieclly proper and legitimate uso.

been so noisily clamoring for the
free silver issue are sincere in lueir
professions of devotion to that cause

Ijr toon appearing in 'the Ne York
paper regarding prices in ilexico
are absurd if taken . from the stand
point of ho Mexican. We quote a
tew figures from ono of the great
New York dailies:
In U. S. lo Mex.
Breakfast bacon, per lb $ .1 1 J $ .32
Ham, per lb, .11 J
Beans, per lb. 3
Arbuckle's coffee per lb. .20
Sugar, per sack 100 lbs. 5.50
Flour, per sack. 100 lbs. 2 25
Now fancy a Mexican using ham
or breakfast bacon. Molases at $1
.60 per gallon, when they have it to
give away on the big hactdenas, nd
the sugar crop is so great that it
does not pay for transportation;
beans at 17 cents per lb., when they
use their frijoles, which are much
raoro palatable, and cost mem nexi
to nothing, imagine a ju.e&iuu
ueeb to the delicious Oaxaca coffee
using Arbucies'! But to throw the

ures, we auote the following from

A great dttl has been said about
the yciithfulnefs of W. J. Bryan
One ol ihe titles b. ; which ho is
designated is "The b v, orator of
ihe Plan." While he is young,

been nominated for the same high

such a youthful age. It is three

ability lhat it was credited to John
Jay. At twenty five ho was a
member ot Congress, and before be
was thirty he was engaged upon
the work that led to tbo formation
of tbo constitution.
William Pitt, the second, and
Charles James Fox are the two
nglisbmen who stand, forth the
most prominently as tilling great
positions while young in years. Mr.
Put at twenty -onewas a member ot
Parliament. Twc "rears after, be
cause of his ability and eloquence,
he was made Chanoellcr of the Ex
chequer, and one year later, when
Ministry resigned, he was urged by
the K-ing to accept the pnraership.
Ho declined, but acoepted it two
years later, and at twebty-five was
the most popular and powerful Min
ister of the age.
Mr. Fox was elected to Parlia
ment before he bad attained bis
majority, and was just of ago when
he was made Junior Lord ot tbe
Admiralty.
The youngest Cabinet officer in
the United States was Samuel L.
Southard, of New Jersey. Ho was
only twenty-nine years of age
when be was called to succeod amitb
Thompson as Secretary of the Navy
in the Cabinet ot President Monroe.
He is an instance of how brief a
thing is fame, or rather how near
one can come to being made famous

Cursing and Swearing.
Did you ever think for a. mo
ment why people curse and swear?
If you have I am sure you have quit
it yourself. Now let us consider
tha professional curscrs. Men who
have become experts at the business.
Tho most ready and most expert
and most willing man to curse and
swear that tbe writer has had te
misfortune to come in contact with
is a negro man. He is a good band
on the farm. He never went to
school a day in his life and cannot
read or write. In fact ho is a gros
ly ignorant man. His stock of words
is small except in slang and oaths.
His mind, body and soul are full of
those. I never have seen but one
person that conld touch him and
that was a white woman of low do
greo. Tho main trouble with
her was tho lack of pura and
decent words to give yent to her
wrath. Naturally tho woman wag
shrp. She had good horse sense
and by nature she was a great talk
er. She had acquired the habit
of cursing while young and that
was the ontv language in which
he could express her joy or relieve
her belated temper. Now take these
two examples and compare them to
some pure, good, moral, man or wo
man of any color. Tbo good man
or woman has at bia or her com
mand a full supply of pure, decent,
pleasant words. He can tell any

The position was subsequently giv
