McKinley ought to be ashamed to
look a silver dollar in the face, after
making love to it all these years and
then piling it at the behest of Hanna.

WHAT AILS HIM?
The Baltimore Herald has got hold
of a new western fable. A man in In
diana swallowed a potato bug and
fearing the insect would harm him,
took a dose of Paris greea to kill the
bug. The Herald does not seem to
know what to make of it, and is away
off in its interpretation with regard to
the business of the foolkiller. The
true explanation is this: The man in
Indiana ws a gold delegate to Chi
cago. The potato bug was the Dem
ocratic platform and nominees. The
dose of Paris green was Palmer and
Buckner. New Orleans Times Demo
crat. William Bryan has one gift that men
in public life may well envy, the pos
session of a good nature that does not
desert him under the greatest provoca
tion. Springfield Republican.
