That's my sent I merit, and It cornea warnt from any heart And that Is precisely the gboallah caper that Governor Roose oalt la now catting before high heaven. .Vor this culpable and Inexcusable per? formance he deserves and will receive tbe execration of all honest and patri? otic men. No human being has bad soeh an astounding case of big bead ssace Napoleon the Great died on hla eoSsn Isle amid a storm which rocked flat world to IIa foundations, murmur* tog. "Teto darmee!" The Immortal OereJeau had a right to be an egotist Ha had accomplished marvelous things, %ut Teddy's achievements, both In Boats and In war, are mere bagatelles. Thackeray says tbat George IV had knighted so many people for heroism on the field and bad presented so many banner* to returning regiments during <tbe Napoleonic wars that ha Anally be oasse "luny" an the subject and con? cluded that he, under the name and style of Colonel Brock, had lad a tre? mendous charge of the Scotch high lander* at Waterloo. Teddy seems to labor under the same sort of hallucina? tion. He appears to think that be was the whole thing during tbe Spanish war. lie not only, single handed and alone, conquered tbe dons by land, but Be Is responsible for Dewey's amazing rlctory at Manila. Teddy waa tbe Car not of that Immortal deed and organ hard that victory, to near bin: tell the tale. If be keeps on, be wM finally conclude that he captured Vtjfcaburg. conquered at Gettysburg aud compelled the surrender of General Kobert E Lee st Appomsttox. The Man Who Blows Hla Horn. Mark Twain said. "Blessed Is the men who blowcth his own horn, lost It be not blown!*' Teddy must have road that bit of sarcastic philosophy written by the great Missouri humor? ist, snd not only has be taken it to heart, but adopted It as the rule and guide of his faltb nud practice, for as? suredly uo man of this generation has svj exalted bis own born, lie blows It long, loud and on all occasions. But that Is a venial sin. If sin It be, and Injures *Tm)0 one except bis ftl'ow soldiers of honors Justly due tbem. But dragging tbe bloody shirt out of Its tomb for per? sonal political rossons Is the sin unpar aonable against tbe American people. By so doing Colonel Boosevelt not only writes himself down ss a Cheap John demagogue, but as a pestilent disturb? er af the public peace. There are Republicans and Republic- I ans.

Aatoaiahlna; Rryanphohln. Xlic inteove beut of the last two months has apparently affected the bruin of the editor of The Clobo-Dem ocrat. Its Hryanphobln Is so astonish? ing that it undertakes to make people believe that Bryan is responsible for the seeming falling off of population In Omaha and Lincoln. I say "seeming falling off' udvlsedly, for people at all fan liar with the facts know that not only in Omaha and Lincoln, but In a great many other cities east and west, there was a,systematic and wholesale padding of the census In 1890. The ri? valry among cities led to that result, tint The Glon?? Democrat labors nnder the delusion?a species of midsummer madness?that becauseOmaha and Lin? coln have shrunk In population?if they have shrunk?the country is depopulat? ed to that extent! What consummate Idiocy! Does The Globe-Democrat sup? pose ? really does It ? that because a few thousand people left Omaha and Lincoln they expatriated themselves and sought homes In foreign lands? And doesn't The G.-D. know that it writes Itself down an ass?a malignant one at that?by attributing loss of pop? ulation?If loss there be?In Omaha and Lincoln to William J. Bryan? A Ftsrhter Front Texas. Certain Republicans are laying the flattering unction to their souls that they can defeat that brave old Demo? cratic warhorse. Colonel Rudolph Kle? berg of the Rio Grande district of Tex? as, but they are reckoning without their host, for Colonel Kleberg is a fighter from away back. There are no frills or fuss and feathers about your Uncle Rudolph. He quietly whets his anlckersee and goes after them, and wbeu he gets through they are not The reason why the enemy thinks %he eon capture Kleberg'a district is that the Democrats had a big fight for the nomination. Wonder these Republican editors never learn that Democrats are Uko cats a-flghtlng?"more fight, more cats." So true Is this that when the Texas Democracy was split In twain some years ago The Globe-Democrat mournfully remarked, "Perhaps the Democratic majority In Texas can be kept below the 200,000 mark this year." It's a 10 to 1 shot that the Democrats of Texas will redeem Colonel Hawley's district and send a solid Democratic delegation to congress instead of los? ing Kleberfr's district Dr. Richard Bartboldt of St. Louis will have to keep his optic peeled or he will get his congressional tall. pulled. The doctor thinks he has a lead pipe cinch on that district. To a casual ob? server It looks as If he had, as he has been receiving 8,000 and 10,000 majori? ties, but if 'he doctor depends on past majorities he Is likely to find himself "ausgespielt." for the Democrats have aoted with rare good sense and have nominated against him Lieutenant Governor A. H. Holte, who is a splen? did man aud a magnificent campaign? er, especially strong with the Germans, who are not stuck on Dr. Bartholdt's Imperialistic Ideas. He Is a jolly good fellow. i count him among my per? sonal friends, but I do not believe that be represents the sentiments of his constituents on the political issues as they now present themselves. Ger? mans love liberty, and, what's more, they came to this country to secure liberty, and ! have uever believed and do not now believe that they will In? dorse McHanna Imperialism. Of all the Uepublicnnn aud Populists now co-operating with the Democrats none has more brains than Charles A. Towne. He Is a man of the highest character and highest capacity. His conduct in refusing a vice presidential nomination and In putting his services where they will do the most good Is proof positive that he Is a patriot. There Is no better political literature than Towne's speeches. His silver speech In congress gave him an Inter? national reputation as an orator. He maintains on the stump and on the platform the vast reputation then and there made. In his Dulutb speech Towne tackled *Teddy the Terror," and the artistic manner In which he flayed that self constituted hero adds largely to the gayety of nations. In speaking of Teddy's St. Paul harangue Towne says: TW speech is, with rare exception, an alternation ot evasion and assertion. In aplrit it ii a com? pound of scold and scullion. Aa to itt facta, it abounds in inaccuracies which, if accidental, art inexplicable as coming from a man wuo has per* forned creditably work in history and biography. Hut the world is accustomed to inconsistencies from air. Hoosevelt. It has long looked upon him as a predestined and Incorrigible eccentric. It has given up attempting to explain him or to reconcile him with himself. It is quite impossi? ble, whether it would be worth white otherwise or hot. to make an entirely satisfactory diagnosis of a civil sarvica reformer in partnerahip with Thomas C. I'latt; a citlr.cn soldier who iWicuh the volunteers; a leader in battle who finds glor/ in being rescued treat an ambush; a hero who boasts ol shooting a rlceing loa in the back; a candidate who play- ar J poses to delegates and galleries to obtain a nomination J^iut he docH aol want; a gentleman waa SWSfBJSS BsS and a lull million*) of hi* fellow <uiintrvnun with lawlessness, dishorn*'; s;id i? v\ aril ice; a ktatestnan who, mounted on a bobby, rides roughly ut ffSVS ques? tions in economics und politico, SWlafftwJ his par? tisan lariat and yelling like an IstalltetUSi Co manch''. That is as neat a piece of skinning as this campaign will furnish. It Is I classical, forceful, true and has a Juuiuslike loath that is charming. I<?'|iul>llcnft* on the Rnn.

Out In Indiana the friends of Hon. Charles It. Landis are also seared mid. strange to say, are endeavoring ' to work on *ho 1 lousier voters a game of bunko wry similar to the one Senator Chandler is playing up in New Hamp? shire. The Landll rooters, seeing him about to lose his seat in congress to a Democrat, have raised the hue and cry that Rrlgham II. Roberts of Utah Is raising heaven and earth and expend? ing a large sum of hard cash to beat Landis. What arrant nonsense! What cheap demagogy! What miserable claptrap! Landis had no more to do with putting Roberts out than did a dozen others, not much more than about 200 others, and Roberts knows that Then why should Roberts single out Landis for vengeance any more than Judge Lanbam of Texas? It's all bosh and shows the sore straits in which Republican candidates find themselves. j By the way. it appears that Landis Is not the only Republican statesman who uses Roberts as a bogy man. Hon. Robert W. Taylor of Ohio started the same canard to save himself from be? ing defeated for tht nomination, and, wonderful to tell, the trie!: worked like a charm. I really wonder how many more of thorn are going to try to save their congressional bacon by yelllug: "Help, good people; help! That man Roberts Is after me!" Roberts, even if fool enough to undertake It would have to be richer than Croesus to do much toward punishing the men who bounced him. 1 helped to do that thing myself. I took a bumble part In the purification of congress. 1 helped to keep blm out,but I am not idiot enough to believe that Roberts could control even one vote in tbe congressional dis? trict which I have the honor to repre? sent. Landis must have a marvelous lot of constituents if he fears the ma? lign influence of Roberts upon them. He really believes nothing of the sort, and the Roberts business Is a bold, bald play to the galleries. Repeaters In West Virginia. But In West Virginia the badly scar? ed Republican leaders arc playing a more substantial game. Even at this early date they are importing colored heelers and repeuters by the carload "to work on tbe railroad." You, bet they will "work on the railroad"?one day?the day of tho election! After "working on the railroad" the first half of that day they will Journey over Into Kentucky and "work on the railroad" some more. Nothing like having a few thousand nomadic colored brothers "to work on the railroad" on election day. Republicans are scared, but it should be remembered that they are most dan? gerous when most scared, and Demo? crats should be more vigilant than ever. Democratic managers every? where should see to it that we have a fair deal this time and that no such wholesale colonization and stuffing of the ballot box are permitted this time as took place In 1S9G. If elections are al? ways to be conducted on the corrupt plan of 1SIWJ. we might as well save the expenses of the farce and boldly and openly put the otlices up at auction and knock them down to the highest bidder. Vlcloos Jab nt Teddy. But Mr. Towne la not the only per? son that seems disposed to take a fall out of Colonel Roosevelt. That bright and sparkling independent journal, the Washington Post makes this vicious Jab at Teddy: This ii not tbe first time Teddy the Terrible has been compelled to wriggle out of an unpleasant predicament. It will lie recalled that the ques? tion of tax paving alipped into hia gubernatorial csmpaign. m As a friend and constant reader of The Post I voluntarily and without charge advise It to "look a leedle out" or the hero of Oyster Bay will swoop down upon Washington, lasso It and dump it Into the Potomac. Just as he Is blossoming out as the great apostle of purity and light, It Is bad manners In The Post to Jog the people's memory about Teddy's career as a tax dodger. I and recalls Bourke Cockran's great ar? gument against the Income tax. to wit: ?That the passage of the Income tax bill would force the poor persecuted downtrodden plutocrats of New York to commit perjury In order to escape payment!" If a hero is not permitted to dodge his taxes, what's the use in being a hero? Let the Washington Post answer that or forever hold its peace. The (?lobe-Pemocrat Is the Mark Tapley of \morican politics. It Is al? ways cheerful, forever hopeful. Just at present It Is trying to delude itself and its readers by asserting that Dem? ocratic leaders in Missouri fear a slump if not a defeat.

The disasters which have hindered the present cotton crop in Georgia are now painfully apparent, when we see tho few open bolls and the rust covered leaves on the stalks This openiug is premature and in many places there will be no cotton to pick by the middle of October 01 sooner. I I may be mistaken, but I have an idea that this rust is found where the young cotton plants were hoed or ploughed when the soil was too wet This rust is a killer of the tender young fruit, when the torrid sun pours down upon the fields It takes out the tender juices from 6quares and stalks aud the few perfected cotton bolls are soon cracked open, the trifle of cotton lint is soon picked out, and the little bit of money it brings hardly meets the gnano bill and the expense of pick* ing ont. There has been great com plaint in (rone-by years of cheap cotton in the south. That day has past. Labor, that was once cheap, baa become dear, and the seasons have tamed against cotton culture Nevertheless cotton is the best money orop for the average farmer The money is sure to come when he carries in a bale of cotton to market. He can carry more cotton at a load to market than any other sort of pro? duce It suffers less from exposure to the weather than any other sort of farm produce It hss been a debt payer all the time. Raised as I was in ante bellum times, cotton bales stood for riches aud prosperity. Cotton planters were the men who had money at the end of the year. I cannot lose the impression, in my lster life, therefore I feel great respect for the cotton plant When a false prophet like Mr O'Neill rises np and predicts an over? flow of cotton, as he did last year, the panic will spread over two contin? ents. It angers me to recollect the loss and damage which that man's mouth inflicted on poor southern farmers This year he is unable to "bear" the market by any such exaggera? tion and misatatements. The de crease is patent to all eyes. The abort crop will grow shorter as the yesr weara on Continued wet weather in picking time w'.il stain and damage it Cotton ahould bring anywhere from ten to twelve cents under exist? ing conditions May the former get the price !?Harvie Jordan in Atlanta Journal. SHOUTING. It used to be quite common to have '?a shout io (he* camp'1 io the public service of our ohurch. lodeed, it used to be the exception wbeo this did oot take plaoe. It is told of s good brother who characterised the preaching of a oertaio presche ? by sayiog that the bless* iog came after the sermon had been flntshed. This was exceptional. No little of the preacher's suooefs was io the effusive response aod demonstration of his emotional hearers. Shouting may oow be put down as a thiog of the past. Aod yet you occasionally bear it ; and sometimes it tskes well with the congregation sod yet sometimes it doesn't Sometimes its strident tooes oast a ohill as far as they are heard. Sometimes it is otherwise. It is reepeotfnlly soggested that oo brother or sister hss any right to shoot who doss oot lire right at boms and does oot pay his or her qoarterags ? S.

Under some oitoumstsooes it is oot unmanly to shed tears, bot for a young man to ory because others have orowd ed him away from the publio pap is as babyish as it is for a cbiid to ory for its mother's milk. It. is the natural ex* preesion of that spirit of dependence which the State is assidiously cultivat? ing.
