vniua I. BHYAH Not since tba days of Andrew Jackson has the Democratic party powassed a leader whr maintained such a hold on his party followers as did William Jennings Bryan, and this la the more marvelous when It la remembered that thrice he led his party to national defeat. The reasons for this are not far to seek, however. just the estimate which history will place on Mr. Bryan it Is too early to aay, but that he will not be given a niche among atateatnen oi great thinkers Is c. safe guess But Mr. Bryan was a man of the people. He was emotional, and therelh he appealed to the masses; he was sincere, and the people love an honest man; was In moot things a true fundamsntallst. and the people like a «te»p who clings to established beliefr; he was a wonderful orator In hta aenlth days and the potancy of oratory has not yet lost tU hold on the people. It these things that gare Mr. Bryan his hold upon the people rather than brilliant statesmanship or profound thinking. However much we may deride Mr. Braysn's free silver heresies and differ with bis other political tenets, we cannot but admire h‘s constancy and honesty, and above all his clean life and constant warfare for high moral standards. The country la better for WU 11am Jennings Bryan having Hveid; la porrer In his death, and while he tsquealed to ua no great constructive policies by which to mmembar him. he did bequeath to us a life of high persons!

Why We Prosper New York American: The wealth of a country U generally estimated according to its productive capacity. It should also be estimated according to Ua Consuming capacity. There argali aorta of natural resources In China and Mexico, but the trouble Is that the people In those countries do not have enough wants. What makes the United States more prosperous than any other country Is that her people need nd use most of the products of clvllited manufacture—more comforts and conveniences than any other people. We occupy only 5.7 per cent, of the world's territory and represent only about 6.2 per cent of the world’s total population. Yet w produce 60 per cent, of the world' pig Iron. 53 per cent, of all copper. 43 per cent, of all coal, and the like. There must be an active demand on the part of the people for the abundant and Innumerable usee of this raw material, because people demand new and better comforts and tools all the

time.

One of the sources of wealth least commonly reckoned with Is the diapoeitlon and the ability of the people to buy things, os well as their capacity for production.
