In politics you may serve the cause of wisdom and justice better by remaining with those to whom you have attached yourself, even after you disapprove much of their conduct and prefer that of t their adversaries, than by leaving them.—Lord Melbourne, | PLATFORM AND NEW : The World's opinion of William Jennings Bryan is a matter of record. | MIts opinion as to the unwisdom of his nomination is a matter of record, | ‘Phere is nothing in this public record of opinion which The World would withdraw, We opposed Mr. Bryan's nomination on the ground of principle and expediency, In advocating the nomination of Gov.

There are grave wrongs to redress, There are shocking abuses of power to correct. There is waste and extravagance in the National Govern- ment so scandalous that it finds no parallel in modern government. No American finance who have reduced lawbreaking to a fine art, There is jingoism, militariem, imperialism, rough-rideriam, government by denun- all its worst manifestations, unchecked and unrestrained. The Need of Cpposition: Much as the Democratic party has suffered during the last twelve years by reason of its own impotence, the country is suffering more. Without | intelligent, vigorous Opposition it Is {mpossible successfully to carry on republican government. Political parties cannot long govern acceptably and well unless they are constantly menaced with the loss of place and power through a virile, organized Opposition, forever watchful and forever ready to take advantage of all their mistakes, A weak and divided Opposition 4s a standing invitation to extravagance, corruption, usurpation and all the ills that democratic government is heir to. | peo 1 This is the situation that confronts Mr. Bryan, and it is Qere that his oe Te Cee ay duty les. personal popularity. Senator Johnston, of Alabama, publicly said thet fully 75 per cent. of the Democratic members of Congress were opposed to Mr. Bryan's nomination, Probably half the delegates who voted for his nom!- nation doubted if he could be elected. A large percentage of them, if the question had been left to their own judgment, would have voted for the nomination of somebody else.

HI ie the love etory of a fascinating, wicked woman and of a man who wes quite ag wicked without being in the least fascinating. The women wes Mary Queen of Scots, The man was her husband, James Hepbura, Darl of Bothwell, Mary (nberited the crown of Scotland. In early youth she married King Francis Il. of France, He died and ghe came back to rule her own country, The gay, frivolous French court bed just sulted Mary's Hght nature, With the harsh, grave, quarreleome Scots who now surrounded her she hed nothing in common, She shocked them. They bored her. For state reasone,she married her cousin, young Lord Darnley. He was « big, awkward, stupid, weak fellow whom Mary grew to despise. He was des- perately afraid of her, and was jealous as well. He had ample cause for both emotions. The marriage was unhappy, So was Mary's whole reign, She disliked her people, They distrusted her. From the first every- thing seemed to go wrong. It was when affairs were at their worst,that Bothwell loomed up big on the political horizon, Though of high rank, he was a ruffian adventurer, who had more than once been mixed up in treasonable and other unlawful escapades, Darnley murdered Rizzto, the Queen's elderly secretary, and in a fit of jealous rage sought Mary's death or imprisonment. Bothwell, with a strong army at his back, interfered in her behalf. He also helped to etir her dislike for Darnley into hatred. Soon afterward Darnley was assassinated. There can be no doubt that Bothwell caused his murder or that Mary knew beforehand what fate the Earl had plotted for her young husband. With Darnley out of the way all was clear sailfng for Bothwell, He had gained tremendous influence over the Queen. Where other men flattered her he bullied her. Where others begged for her favor Bothwell brutally demanded it. He was her master by sheer force of will and rough strength. This sort of man appealed to Mary's fickle heart, She loved him more and more devotedly the more brutal treatment she received at his hands, Whatever orders he gave she meekly obeyed. It was another case of Beauty and the Beast. Directly after Darnley’s murder Bothwell planned a master stroke {a his game of courtship and statecraft. As Mary was riding back to Bdln- burgh on April 24, 1567, from a visit to her infant son (who was afterward James I, of England), Bothwell, at tbe head of an armed force, met her and carried her away to Dunbar Castle. Though this daring act was supposed to be nothing less than a piece of lawless kidnapping, it {6 more than probable that Mary not only freely consented to the echeme, but had helped to plan {t. At any rate, she made no resistance, Bothwell prompt as , vorced big faithful wife, and on May 16, 1607 (barely three months after Dace annceR Darnley’s death), he and Mary were married. Mary had meanwhile made UNM Zot Hothwell Duke of Orkney. But he was, to all Intents and purposes, the real iY) ruler of Scotland. When he and Mary appeared in pubtic he used to bold G his cap in his hand to show he was her subject. But Mary would snatch the cap from him and puf it on his head to indicate that he was her equal. He tyrannized over ber and behaved toward her with none of the courtesy or deference due her rank. He had apparently won his life's ambition and no longer troubled to show civility to the woman to whom he owed all. But the more cruelly he treated her the more Mary loved him. The Scotch lords hated Bothwell and had no idea of accepting him as their ruler, They rose in arms and took Mary away from him. She escaped from them disguised as a boy and joined Bothwell. Then the lords marched against the lovers In open warfare, Both- im ® Well, Who Was as brave as he was brutal, offered to | The End of settle the quarrel by single combat with any cham- fo a eneannened A Queen and an Adventurer. g 7 HE DIDNT MEAN To SHOOT You, HE the Romance. pion the lords might name. The challenge was re epeatnerennaae ay decten, Pae Queen's followers deserted her, She was at the lords’ mercy. Hemmed {n and unable to escape, she kissed Bothwell good-by with many teirs and surrendered to her foes. Bothwell, seeing all was lost, deserted her, and slipping through the enemy's lines escaped to Norway. There he was captured, and died insane In 4 Scandinavian prison. Mary was dethroned. She fled for protection to England. There Queen Elizabeth coset her into prison and later had her beheaded. | But, indirectly, the Scotch Queen was avenged.

The World dedy of voters—the masses r considers his speech on imperialism at Indianapolis in 1900, in accepting party. the Democratic nomination for President, as the ablest and most creditabiz - of all his oratorical achievements. Indeed, Mr. Bryan has always been exceedingly sound on what might be called foreign pol! cause of arbitration and peace in place of war. Publicity and Co:rupt Practices: Mr. Bryan is fortusste in the strength of the issues which the Repub- leans have voluntarily presented to him. The foremost of these in political effectiveness, perhaps, te the refusal of the Chicago Convention to adopt a plank demanding an efficient cor- rupt-practices act and publicity of campaign contributions. A Republican House of Representatives had already passed a publicity bill, Mr, Taft had written to Senator Burrows advocating publicity. While the political timidity of Southern Democratic Senators in respect to the negro issue prevented the passing of the bill, the Republican National Convention showed how little Republican sincerity there was back of the measure when it defeated by a vote of 880 to 94 the plank which provided for the|!# Javincible, Against the Republican candidate is arrayed much of the jstrength of organized lab y, or the great Mr, Taft Not Invinciblet In spite of all Mr. Roosevelt's frenzied rhetoric about swollen fortunes and the necessity of both an income and an inheritance tax when the tariff is revised, there is not a solitary word in the Chicago platform advocating either an income tax or an inheritance tax. There ia not one word about the criminal penalties of the Sherman law, yet Theodore Roosevelt has been frothing ut the mouth over “malefactors of great wealth.” The Republican platform is weak, and neither Mr. Taft nor his party publication of campaign contributions, yecatse of his decisions on the bench, however ption succeeding Hanna and Corruption, | Just those decisions me personal candidate of Pr have been, Mr, Taft 8 the weaker by being the With Cortelyou and Cor with the revelations of the $150,000 of insurance money and the $200,000 Roosevelt, nominated through Mr, Roose: ' raised by Harriman to help elect Roosevelt, a Republican convention, velt's personal efforts and | exulting in its opportunities on the eve of tariff revision to bleed the pro- that Mr. Roosevelt contr Brownsville is certain to hurt Mr, Taft tected Industries white, took its stand naked and unashamed In favor ot greatly with the negro yote in debatable States, despite his efforts to tn continuing political corruption and selling legislative privileges to the | duce the President to modify a most arbitrary and despotic order, The highest bidder for cash lexcesses of the Roosevel' A tion will hurt him.
