It may be said with safety that it will not be Hisgen, 01 Watson, or Debs, or the gentleman in t he peniten tiary. The country will survive either horn of the remaining dilemma. Koth parties are vociferating their confidence in the reenlt. This is customary. The other party those who are putting up their tuoncr on the issue are unemo tional and unaffected by the hysterics of politics. The gamblers in such cu.ea are the safest prognostieatnrs.

He also said that the first politi cal speech he ever made was in Ualnier in the same year. Said he was picked up tie-cnuse 'ha was it stranger, the other fellows knew each other too well He tuld the story of the farmer who when brought tip before the juuge for assault and ba'.fery explained that he accepted all ki ads of insults from the tramp who came to his home, ate his fine meal smoki-sl his pipe, put his feet on his w ife's clean tablecloth, insulted his wife line", whlchwutild do away with com petition and Ineienao rates. The demo crat claimed tlleV were uudwr Stdca (tights and could not lc touched. When the case came More the Supreme Court every lepubltcati judge voted against the Northern Securities Company, lite democratic judges voted (or it. Now those men were not dishonest, but their doctrine Was wrong. The same old doctrine nne in 'liO and 'I'd.

Can it I that the President is sentimentally disinclined to proceed gainst such a practical demonstrator of bia big family idea?
