Om f tho mo?t frequent and seem
ingly plausible arguments lu behulf ol
" . K ......
! Brian's candidacy Is that as president
of tho United States bo could do ng
' barm, because the senate and the
' house also, if Republican, would pro
veut him from having his own way
Would any Bane business man In the
United States entertain mich a sugges
tion? He would reject It Indignantly
and rebuke the person making It.
"What!" he would explain. "Place
an untrustworthy perron In charge of
my affairs and trust to others to see
that he Is not allowed to lujuro nie?
Tho very Idea Is nn Insult to my com
mon sense!"
Yet day In and dny out, In newspa
per articles, speeches and talk between
man nml mnn, tho argument we have
quoted Is applied to tho greatest olllce
In tho United States, the olllce the
holder of which possesses more power,
for good or 111, thriu nny king or em
peror and who can, even by n mere
utterance, effect Incalculable ovll to
business Interests throughout the Unit
ed States. It is substantially tho only
plea offered In behalf of Bryan to tho
business men of the country, and the
persistence with which It Is repeated
suggests that those who present it
think It Is having some effect, or per
haps which Is more likely It Is the
only plea they daro to present, con
scious as they arc of tho utter unfit
ness of their -candidate and of tho fu
tility of seeking to gain support for
him on his merits as a, public man.
It Is a fatso plea, as false, as It is
shameless. Urynn In the Whlto House
could 1kj null would bo for four long
years the most dangerous pest and
plngtio tho business Interests of this
nation havo ever encountered. The
lack of ballast In his political career
up to date, his weather vane veering
to this or that point of tho compass to
catch a promising breeze, his lightning
somersaults from one political hobby
to another, lib? plagiarism of any nov
elty Hi it be thinks may attract the
thoughtless nil those foreshadow tho
Instability of his course should ho
achieve the aim of his ambition and
prove the menace thnt his very pros-
( etif. lu the Whlto .House would bo to
. business Interests.
J Neither Fonato nor. bouse could pre-
( vent him from doing. Irremediable
harm, and business men who had boon
. deceived Into accepting blin as hnrtn
- ( less would have abundant tlmo nnd
leisure to repent.
.. J What a contrast -between the caudl-
' date whoso strongest plea Is that, If
N i elected, he would be unable to do any
thing very bad because congress would
(not let him and William II. Tuft, of
whom President Mi-'Kluley said, "I

power to snvo Smith uiul tho car
stopped almost within Its own length
but too late to snvo tho man. Tho
conductor was Goo. Fnlk, a, mnn who
n year ago avod a ohthl's Ufa in
North Salem by his coolness and
dnrlng. To got tho body out, the
car had tp bo backed somo nnd then
was only accomplished with the
greatest dltllcult'y.
Men Who Helped.
Tho first inoii who wero close by
nnd holpod got tho unfortunate man
out of his awful position woro Po
lice Captain Larry Murphy, Geo.
Townaend. Hod Hammond, a North
out nnd John Yntes. They wero all
friends nnd ncqunlutnncoi of Smith
but ha nover rocognlxed one of them.
Ho was torrlbly cut up externally
and crushhed Internally. His body
was dragged nnd .rolled nnd crushed
almost beyond recognition by the
car wheels aiu machinery.
No Om- to IttAniC.
Those who wero watching Smith
last night all say he was to blame
for his sad deallj and no blame at
taches to tho motormen. A photo
graph of the car was taken last nlcht
but thoro Is no one Inclined to
blamo or Qvqn censure tho company

Tho remains of the victim woro im

Smith Had IHvh Drinking,
It Is learned that at quarter to
ftv Smith was with Tom Scott and
had been drinking aene. but not so
as to be drunk. Scott told him to
Ko home to supper, dt he refused.
John Nusbaum refused him a drluk
nnd he went across tho street to
got some moro. where Tom James
refused htm Hut when dotomlned

Candidate Kern declares that Bryan
Is certain to be elected. It Just shows
how naturally those Indiana tnon take
to fiction.
It iriay bo remembered that tho old
Knights of Labor organization went
to pieces when Its leaders tried to de
liver It to a political party.
ilr. Bryan says that he believes In
freo raw material, Ho got somo of It
when ho named Governor OaBkell of
Oklahoma as his campaign treasurer.
Tho people of Illinois have Bhown an-
iutercst In tho celebration of tho Lincoln-Douglas
debates that will not
wano this year In tho campaign of tho
party of the Immortal Lincoln. '
Judge Taft Is showing that it Is not
tho number of speeches a candidate
can make In a day, but what tho can
didate says, that counts.
The revival of business Is' quickened
as the conviction grows that tho elec
tion of Taft and Slionntui Is assured.
All the straw votes seem to make
political hay for Taft and Sherman.
There Is wonderful unanimity In the
PoiniMTiitli' agreement' that President
l.oo!cclt should not havo "butted In"
to this campaign.
it Is purrc-My tr;:i that everybody

Mr. Urynn has got near enough to
the negro question, to declaro that the
negro lias a right to vote. IIo has tho
right, but It Is not safe for him In
states where Democrats are in power.
Laboring men hnvo been showing

or deceived by tho cbargo that ho Is
unfriendly to their Interest.,
Tho country would bo reassured by

Doubtless Mr. Brynn wishes that
President Roosevelt wero not so

Old Dr. Bryan Is giving most of his

for the presidency for twelve years.
All Indications are that he has" over

Bryan may learn from a glance at the
