Don’t despair. Kojoy the uday. Be
racedoiled to wliat you oaonot help.
That's good adyioa uud 1 wish Uiat wa
coaid all taka it. 1 try to. but tome
times It la bard work. Wlieu it rained
alt tbe month of Jana and wa bad a
burning aao all tbe monlb of Bepietn
ber. I oouldenl "carps diem." Wh«u
I ponder upon Ibo erual. useless FhlHp
ploe war nod tbe lVirto Blen alral and
Um Chinese muddle end all tbe other
devilment that tbla administration has
brongbt about, 1 oanaot be icuunolltd.
Wbeo I bear tlieae McKinley men
shouting prosperity It makes me bot
under tba collar. They remind me of
a gang of blghwdy robbers who murder
helpless travelers aud rob them and
then go off and cry proaparity. Manu
facturers of army and navy supplies
are getting rich on contract aud army
officer* la Manila and Pekin are taking
In tbe loot and cry prosperity. War
always brings e show of prosperity, but
It la at tba ooat of blood and tears.
Bat still wa llvo to bopa that there
will come a change. If Bryan la elected
I know ttan will, and If he is not. we
will be do worse off than wc are now.
We oan’t be worsted, and no are will
try to be reconciled. Wban 1 was a
young man I was a democrat bacauae
my father waa. but I oast my dm vote
for W. W. Clayton, wbo was a wfelg.
1 was a collage boy at Athena, and Mr.
Clayton was kind to us and wo all
voted for litm Cot state senator. I
knew Mr. Clayton for many years and
alwaya respected him. (or ha bad a kind
heart and waa a gentleman. Alter bis
cleotioo be gave tba college boys a
party one night and was especially kind
to me, and I bars never forgotten It.
‘ How far that little oendle throws Its
«o ahio«a a good deed In a uaugbly
world."
Baton Lbe war, when I waa la mjr
prime ot manhood and bad more vital i
ly than sense. 1 was a strong partisan
and really belle red that if my party did
not sucoeed the country would be
ruined. My father used to laugh at
my real and say “Oh, no, my son, tha
country Is safe: don't 1st lbe politicians
and tba new*paper* alarm you.” What
a pity It la that wbso a man bat treas
ured up a lot o( wisdom and experience
he Is old enough to die t Whet a pity
It la that we pern the beat port loo ot
oar lines lo looking afar o9 for bappi
ness when really It ts nearby aud with
in our grasp. Of oourse, I get excited
now and theo about politics, but I
light it off. fur I realise that “Domestic
happiness Is tha only bliss that hat sur
vived the falL” Tha bast thing* on
earth are the cheapest and moat abun
dant. The Joys aod comforts of borne
and tha fireside, the owners aud fruits,
tha air aod water and snnthlee, tba
garden, the birds and tbs welcome
visits of king} friends aod nabora.
Nalthar wealth aor fame nor offlee
will compare with these. In most
oases offlee means spoilt; reward* from
tba public crib. Judge Underwood
•eld that one Urns when be was a can
didate and waa making a stump speech
aud bad closed an eloquent paragraph,
% long, lank countryman who was agio
him, exclaimed: “Boys, tie's jest aide
wipin’ around bootin’ the orthography
of a little offloe.” The Judge studied
politics aa a aelenoa tod understood It.
One day wlieu wo were discussing tba
great steal of Boa* Tweed A Go., in
Hew York, a preacher, who wsa pres
ent, remarked: “Why all these charge*
against Tweed must be political lice
aod aland era, for they are democrat a. ”
“My lanooeat friend,” said lb* judge,
“ye* Tweed A Oo. are all democrats,
bat my observation haa been that H Is
within the range of possibility for a
democrat to staaL” Politics la a most
demoralising botlnasa, and has been so
In all government*. Sheridan euld
“There la no eooeclenee la gallantry or
politic*,” aod Ham 1st said “A poli
tician Is one wb* would etreumvaat
God.” Still, there eta tome boo eat
politicians, but they don’t go about in
drove*. Tbe main reason why I admire
Bryan so mooh la beoeuss of bis hones
ty, Ills sincerity. Hla political roe tales
admit that, and ovary body admits that
ba It a very wonderful man, both moo*
tally and physically. U all iba psopls
oould aaa bin faoa to faoa nod bear
him ba would be elected by a mlIIloo
or two majority. When a politician
apeaks bo baa to ba vary earrfol what
bo aaya, bat whoa a atataaman like
Bryan apaaka, Iba truth ootoei goehlog
