NVlien Davis does that, hundreds of thousands of old sol? diers will leave McKinley and vote lor Bryan, because it is an open secret that tho row which 1 hi vis bad witli Kvans and Hitchcock grew out of the fact that Davis was the Arm and un? yielding friend of the old soldiers and that he regulativ overruled Kvans and that Hitchcock regularly overruled Davis. So that the more the Republic* aus abuse Davis, the more the old sol? diers will vote for Bryan, Nothing could more clearly demon* atrate the disintegration now golUfi on In the ii O.

Dubois of Idaho, General John H. Henderson of Missouri and Carl Schurz?an 11 lustrous company, surely. DUurnccful BniinfM. On Oh part of Republican news? papers this is to be a campaign of mis? representation and vilification. That they are doing; this systematically there can be no question. They appear to be acting on Voltaire's dictum, "Keep on lying, and some of it will stick." The Kansas City Journal seems to have earned "the bad emiuence" of leadiug In this disgraceful business. 1 never read that sheet that I am not forced to recall the words of Sir John Fnlstaff on a memorable occasion: "Lord! Lord! how tills world is given to lying!'' I submit to a candid world if the McKinley Imperialistic party is not in a very bad way when it deliberately resorts to lying and misrepresentation as the only means of bolstering up a losing ( ause. This <ame monumental liar, the Kan? sas City Journal, said that in our de? hnte at the WInfield Cbautaoqua the "Hon. C. It. Laudis was dignified and argumentative, while Champ Clark was vulgar and abusive,'* which was another lie. It l>; sod its charge against me ou tho last sentence in my closing speech, which was as follows: "If you desire a pure, economical, pa? triotic American administration, vote the Democratic ticket, ami may peace rest upon your houses. If you desire i wicked and wanton waste of the people's money, a further growth of trusts, a rasl Standing army and the Republic converted into an empire. \oto the Republican ticket and may Qod have mercy on your fool souls!*1 I am willing to stand by that. What is there abusive oi vulgar about that) is stating the truth abusel is it vul* gar!

I will toil you whjr, I or".!-''" these truths, stated bin,uly by me, butt. The Journal said mat Laudl* was dignified and argunw ntative, in the same c.iumn ic unfortunately gave nn extract from his speech in which he declared thai Instead of the Demo? cratic national convention being hold at Kansas City, it ought to be held in tho Leavenwortli penitentiary! There's dignity and argument for yen! Thai's the Kansas City Journal's Idea of dig? nity und logic! The Pathway ?f Duty. I denounced the statement of Mr. Laudis as a \ilc slander when he made it :u Wltifleld. 1 deuounce it as such now whoa print, d In the Kansas City Journal. As these letters have twenty or fifty fold more circulation than tho Kansas City Journal. 1 say to ii in tho words of Shakespeare: Ls* <>n. Mai dufT! Am! drMMtd I?' In* wli Hist < ripf Held I Karat*! I do not propose to be driven from the pathway of duty by it or by all the Republican newspapers in the land. This is our country my country and 1 intend to contribute u y mite to pre serve our free institutions for my chil? dren and my children's children to the remotest generation. Hon. Jonathan Plenties Dolllver is a biilliant orator and an amiable gentle? man. I am glad to count him on the list of my personal friends, but he knows a grout deal more concerning tho history of his country than ho did before we met In (Matte at Spirit Lake. Ia. He learned a lesson on that nccfl slon which ho will not forget so long as he lives, i was his teacher, As these letters tiro Intended t<? bo educa* 1 tlonal in their nature and us ?>r11. r Uc< publican orators are llkclj t<? i.o us shy on hlstorj as ladllvcr was, i hereby set f.?rth tic Incident us it happened: I sp >ke ou Imperialism |n'fo**e it teachers' institute mi llurllnaniiic, Kan., Monday.

ClajrtOM*Halw ev Trentjr. 1 had the opening nntl close. DolU Ter had the middle speech, in my opening speech l went after Hay and his treaty with Pauucefote without gloves. To my surprise and delight, Dolllver walked promptly into the trap. declaring that the Hay-Puuuccfote treaty was an amendment to and Im? provement Oil 0 Democratic treaty - the Clayton l.uhvcr treaty, negotiated by .lames K. Polk'l administration. Iu my closing speech I jammed the truth into him in great chunks, ami the truth ll that the ClaytOU-Bulwer treaty was negotiated on the part of Great Itrit nin by Henry Lytton Bulwer and on the part of the United States by John M. Clayton of Delaware, who was not a Democrat at all. hut who was secre? tary of state under General Zachary Taylor, the last Whig ever elected pres? ident. So Brother Dolllver found him? self in a hole, and at the White Cloud (Kan.) Chautauqua be stated that It was a Whig and not a Democratic treaty! That Democrats may have nil the facts to thump into Republicans I here? by give all the dntea touching the Claytou-IUilwer treaty. These facts may be found on page 234 in a govern? ment publication entitled "Compilation of Treaties Now In Korce. 1778-1890;" also In "Treaties and Conventions. 1880." page 440: "Clayton-Bulwer treaty concluded April 10, 1800; ratification advised by the senate May 22, 1850; ratified by president May 23, 1800; ratifications ex? changed .Inly 4. 1800; proclaimed July 5. 1850." It may be added that that was almost the last official act of Pres? ident Taylor, as he died July t>. 1850, from eating cherries and lee cold but? termilk. I take pleasure in adding that the man who fouglil the ratification most bitterly was that immortal Demo? crat Stephen A. Douglas. 1 wish t<> state emphatically that I do not accuse Brother Dolllver of de? liberately or intentionally misrepre? senting the Democratic party in this matter. Dolllver Is a gentleman. While generally Intelligent, he was ignorant In this particular matter. lie knows better now. t Instructed him. lie will never charge thet 'hiyton-Bulwer treaty up to Democrats again. lie gracefully came down at While Cloud and charg cd it to the Whigs, but l set out the facts above in extenso because I have every reason to believe that Republic? an spellbinders generally make the same mistake made by Brother Dolll? ver until l operated on his understand? ing and added to his stock of Informa? tion at Spirit Lake. la. Havloej Fun Wich i.miUi*. At Bprlugdule, Ark.. I also let some light in upon the Intellect of Hon. Charles R, Landlsof Indiana, when we debated before tbe Chautauqua assem? bly there. In referring to the sale of bonds uudt r the Spanish war revenue bill, he declared that the bonds were purchased, not by the rich, but by the body of the people the farmers, IU'"? chants, mechanics, clerks and laborers when everybody knew that the state? ment was till tommyrot. spring-dale la a line little city In a fine farming lec? tion, We bad o splendid audience of about 3,000 p. ..pie. } concluded to try Mam Joni *' pla^n 015 Idindia, so in my reply I repeated Ills statemeut na to the pen; !, the plain peopli -buying the bonds, and asked all Iu that audi? ence who were the ! appy possessors of Uultcd Htntes bond-;, or who bid on the Spanish war bonds, to stand up and cou 11 ted. Not a soul arose al? though 1 11 ;> nted the invitation ur? gently. Instend such a mighty roar of laughter lairsi upon the summer air as to make the leaves quiver on the mighty oaks under which we were speaking. Siifc to sny Br'er La ml is will never repeat that performance when1 there is anybody to expi se his n ick. But otlier Republicans will do so when speaking alone, ? At Winflt Id, Kan., when Land is and I debated before the fhautnuqun as si i.il ly I had some more fun with him and again added to Ids stock of Information, He stet red char of mak? ing his preposterous assertion about the body of *the people buying bonds, but lie went into the hole after the fashion of Mr. MeGiuty 011 another occasion, in defeudlng the Atlantic cit.\ money 1 ill li?' grandiloquently snid: "Why should you fear the banks? The people own the bauks!" Once more I tried Bam Jones' plan. We had a magnificent audience; the very cream of the people of the Arkansas valley. In reply I restated the proposi? tion of Rn ther Lambs ami Invited all who in that splendid audience of 4,000 people owned, national hank stock to stand tip and he counted. Not a soul stood tip. So another of Brother Lan dis' campaign gags went where the Woodbine twineth. No doubt when done he will n peat both these thoroughly exploded propo sitii ns and Republican* who would not know a I'lllted Slates bond or a piece of national bank stock If they met it 111 the big road will yell tin mselves hoarse, und such lying sheets ns the Kansas city Journal will continue to publish fahlen :.? the effet I that "lam dis mopped up I he earth w 11 ll Champ I'lnrk." 1 really enjoy such inopplug, and. like Oliver Twist, erj for more.

Cbaese in SwIm Familie*. The social rank of a family in Swit? zerland is estimated by the age of its cheese, and the greater the respect duo to or the affect sen for a guest the older is the cheese set before blm. There ore in each pantry at least as many cheeses as there are boys and girls in the family, for at the birth of every child a cheese is made. It is first cut into nil his or her wed? ding day. on which festive occasion all the guests partake of a piece of the groom's and the bride's cheese in order to secure for them all earthly thrift and happiness. The rest is served BJ a token of friendly souvenir and heart? felt mourning after the torn!) has clos? ed over his or her earthly career. Moreover, when a Swiss youth falls In love aud wishes to pay court to the girl of his heart he gves to her father and asks permission to share the fami? ly dinner next Sunday. This is al? ways granted if he is respectable, for it would be considered a deadly Insult to refuse. The anxious question in his mind is, "Will papa bring out the cheese V Papa does not usually hurry to re? lieve his fears, having the family dig? nity in mind and wishing to proceed with duo deliberation. If ho is indeed satisfied with the suitor, he at length rises from his seat, goes solemnly to the cupboard, takes down the oldest piece of cheese, splits it and hands a piece to the youth and one to the maid? en, and from the moment they have tasted it they are betrothed. Hot Weather Diet. "It is a mistake," said a physician during the recent period of extreme heat, "to eat too little in hot weather, Just as it is a mistake to t at too much und the wrong thing?. Kxtreme hot weather is in itself very exhausting, and plenty of nourishment is needed to sustain the system. This nourishment should be of a simple and easily digest? ed kind. Tor myself I find that milk and Vichy taken at regular intervals of two hours, sipped rather than gulped down in a single draft, gets me through best on a very hot day, from breakfast to a 0 o'clock dinner.
