The Bryan Speech.
Yesterday the Gaznrrn gave a syn-
opsis, nearly two columns in length, of
the elaborate laddress read before the
enormous audience at Madison Square
garden the night before. To-day, we.
give the speech in its entirety. filling
nearly ten columns, as its importance,
as the deliberately considered enunci-
ation of the free-silver party’s princi-
ples, warrants the use of so much space.
The‘GAZETTE purposes to treat all par-
ties and divisions of parties with the J ef-
fersonian “equal and exact just-ice,”
and while itself believing that nothing
could be more disastrous to the welfare
of the people of this fair land, than the
success of the wild theories advanced
by these free-silver men, truth in this
case, as in all others, has nothing to
fear in its struggle with error. We be-
speak for the Bryan speech a" careful
reading, even though it may take two
hours to get through all its, as it seems
#3 us, transparent sophistries.
The West and the East.
Mr. Charles S. Gleed, of Kansas, a
distinguished lawyer who occasionally
finds time for literary work, contrib-
utes to the August Forum a paper in
which he denies that there is any such
attitude of the West to ward the East as
that recently described in the Forum
by Mr. E. L. Godkin. Mr. Gleed says:
"On the contrary, the attitude cf the
West toward the East is of the ~most
friendly character. It is natural that
this should be so; it is impossible that
it should be otherwise. The Western
people came from the East, or their an-
cestors did; and almost with lut excep-
tion they are bound to the East by the
closest ties of consanguinity. They
have taken pains to go East and study
the East. To them the East is “back,”
while to the Eastern people the West is
“out.” They are proud of the great
interests and institutions of the East.
They feel that the East stands between
them and Europe, andlthat thereby our
country presents a majestic front to the
old world. They have been principally
educated in the East; and their preach-
ers, teachers, physicians, and intel—
lectual leaders generally are of Eastern
training.”
Mr. Gleed knows both East and West,
being a native of the former, and a
long-time resident of the latter, and
having traveled much in both sections.
What he says is true, and he might as
truthfully have added that the Western
people are much better informed in re-
lation to the East than the latter with
regard to the former. The average
Eastern man knows more about Europe
that he does of the trans-Mississippi
region, and the tide of tourist travel
from the East is trans-Atlantic, not
trans continental. The comparative-y
few Easterners who go West see very
little of anything that is not visible
from the car windows. The region is
so vast and time so short that the aver- .
age tourist through the West contents
himself with an inspection of a few
natural wonders. As to reading, iwhich
“maketh a full man,” the East gets lit-
tle from the West, while the West
draws largely fromvthe East. Most if
the books and magazines are printed on
this side of the great river, and im-
mense numbers of them are sold on the
other side;
Not only the tie of consanguinity, but
the fellowship of the churches binds the
West to the East. As immigration
crossed the continent, the religious
bodies of the East planted small
churches in the van of civrlization,
These small beginnings have grown to
vast proportions, but they have not for-
gotten their origin, and they span the
continent with an indissoiuble tie.
'Such organizations as the Society of
Christian Endeavor and the Epworth
League, such meetings as the Metho-
dist General Conference, and the Pres-
, byterian General Assembly are strong
'- attestations that'the West is neither un-
--friendly nor indifferent to the East.
, The same cheerful testimony is borne
by the great fraternal bodies that an-
. nually, biennally, trien'nally, or quad-
rennially gather by thousands from
every State in the Union. . It has not
occurred to the‘Knights Templar, the
Odd‘Fellows, the Knights .of Pythias,
di likes theEast.
And these countless
ties of consanguin‘ty, Christian fellow-
ship, and brotherhood, are all over-1
shadowed by a common spirit :offlpat-
riotism—love for the pride of country.
The lessons of the past, the duties of
the present, and hopes for the future
all bind State to State» and section to
section in a Union that in spite of pessi-
mistic forecasts, is growing stronger
everyday.
One on John Bull.
A delightful story from J ohannes—
burg, which is peculiarly timely amid
the present worship of Dr. Jameson and
his freebooters, has just reached Lon-
don. Itdescribes a dispute among a
group of Boers over the color of the
English flag. There was great ignor-
ance" and, much difference of opinion
on the subject until an old patriarch.
clad in a blue shirt and soiled yellow
moleskin trousers, arose. His rifle was
slung over his right arm, his beard was
long and white, his face was yellow
with seventy years’ exposure to the sun,
and his eyes, once clear, were dull. He
knew nothing about the English, was
ignorant of their language, their ways,
and their grievances; but he was solid
on the color of the flag that the sun al-
ways 8 ines on.
there was a murmur of 00m Peel; and a
' respectful pause.
“The English flag,” he said with an
air of placid certainty, “is white.” And
when he explained ,the various places
where he had seen it of that color, his
statement was accepted.
‘ A Valuable Inheritance.
Thomas A. Edison’s father, recently
died at the age of 93. His father lived
to be 103 and his grandfather—the great
grandfather of the distinguished in-
ventor and electrician—lived to the age
of 102. Such an inheritance of longe-
vity is worth having.
Bystander —- Doctor, what do
think of this man’ s injuries?

undoubtedly fatal, but, as for the rest
of them, time alone can tell.-—-Media

Tired Feeling
Makes you seem “all broken up,” with-
out lite, ambition, energy of appetite.
It is often the forerunner of serious ill-
ness, or the accompaniment of nervous
troubles. II; is a positive proof of thin,
weak, impure blood; for ‘ :he blood is
rich, red, vitalized a :1d . :;3 0:113, it im-
parts life and energy :3 crery nerve,
organ and tissue of the tcsy. The
necessity of taking Hood‘s Earsaparilla
for that tired feeling is therefore apparent
to everyone, and the good it will do you
is equally beyond question. Remember
