BISMARCK'S LAST WALTZ.
BRYAN'S DUT* TO PARTY.
It is slid tbit women ns n rule did
not'nnderstand Bismarck, and they of
ten regarded him with mingled regard
and dislike. Remark's love for young
girls was great, and be often paid them
graceful compliments. It was in Ibe
albnm of one of bis girlfriends that be
wrote:
Col. Bryan doesn't want to crucify
bia men by keeping them in service,
nor !>e crucified himself on a c-oss of
l>olice dnty he prefers to return to the
duties that are set him at home; and
Col. Bryan is eminently correct and
long-beaded for entertaining and ox-

in the air, Tbey are the most bard to J meats, Now let the yonng statesman
build, yet the most difficult to demol
ish. ’’ It fell to the lot »f a Frenchwo
man, however, to receive bia most
flattering attention. It was addressed
to Mine. Carette, wbo was in attend
ance to Empress Eugenio at the time
of the Paris exposition of 1$'I7. Bis
marck accompanied bis royal master
on a visit, and was present at tbe conrt
ball at the Tuilleries. Moved by curi
osity and by a certain attraction, Mme.
Carette went up to Bismarck and of
fered him her boqnet of roses ns an in
vitntion to dance tbe waltz in tbe cu
tilliou. To tbe surprise of all be ac
cepted and danced charmingly. When
tbe music ceased he took the rose
from bis buttonhole and gave it to bia
beautiful partner, saying: “This ia tbe
last waltz I shall ever dance in my life,
and I shall never forget it. Please
keep this rose in memory of it.”

The Third Nebraska, Colonel Wil
liam Jennings Bryan, is in tbe list of
xegiments to be retained in tbe service.
from Nebraska show bis nerve and tbe
troe metal he is made of by resigning
bia commission and going about his
affairs, as every free Amorican citizen
wbo enlisted in tbo war should bo at
liberty to do, inasmuch as tbo war has
ended and conditions so changed that
there is now no farther obligation
upon any to remain in the service.
Dispatches from the war department
announce that Col. Bryan's regiment
ia to he retained in tbe service. There
is doubtless method in keeping the
silver-tongued orator muzzled during
tbe coming campaign, and it is no won
der that Bryan's regiment is to lie kept
in the service. It does not tuke much
political foresight to see into the
Nchemo of tbo republicans at Washing
ton. Col. Bryan should rise above the
Bmall men wbo would bold him in tbe
service in order to further their politi
cal schemes. He should meet tbe issue
liko tbe trne man be has always proved
himself to be. He should tender bis
resignation at once, Tbo eutiro coun
try would approve bia action and ap
plaud bis independence nnd bravery.
The Savannah News agrees with The
Tiveh-Bkcohder on this matter. Tbe
News says:
"There is no good reason why bo
should not resign. It isn't us if bis
place could uat be tilled. As there is
to be no lighting there are plenty of
men in Nebraska, and perhaps in tbe
regiment, wbo can till it just as suti
factorilr us Col. Bryan does. There is
no particular reason why be should
bury himself iu a fort or camp in Cuba.
He could not do tbe country any par
tienlar service in such a position.
It may bo that there would be an
attempt to make political capital against
him if be abould resign, but tbe at
tempt would not lie successful. Tbe
wholo country knows that bo is not n
professional soldier, and that be did
not volunteer with the expectation ttmt
be would havegarrison dnty to perform.
Tbe fact that be accepted a commission
at a time when it was thought that
there would be lighting to do, will be
a sufficient answer to those wbo would
be disposed to criticise him if be
should resign.”
FATHER RYAN'S LAST FOEM.
Tbe poem of the late lamented Fath
er Ityan, dedicated to Mrs. Holiert
Harding, of Danville Ky., and which
was published for tbe first time in the
Democrat of Ang.1l, we learn by a brief
letter from Mrs. Harding, "was tbe
last from tbepenofthe sweet American
singer,” It was written a short time
before tbe death of Father ityan, and
the poem is, therefore, themore sacred
ly prizod by tbe accomplished lady to
whom it was dedicated, as well as the
many friends ami admirers of tbe late
Father Ryan in this community, who
bayo secured a copy of it through its
publication in the Democrat. The edi
tion containing tbe poem was exbaneted
before the demand for copies was sup
plied, aud we therefore reproduce the
poem and explanatory matter below:
In bis sermon at tbe Presbyterian
church one week ago last Sunday, the
pastor, Rev. J. I,. McWilliams, added
foreo and beauty to a well taken point
by quoting the three last verses from
an unpublished poem by tbe late Fath
er Ryan, tbe poet-priest of the South.
Members of tile congregation were
so pleasantly impressed witli tbe
touching sermon, so gracefully round
ed out with tbe quotation from Father
Ryan’s poem, that we are impelle I to
request a copy of the same for publica
tion, which Rev. McWilliams kindly
furnished us. It is as follows:

Wbat has given tbe republican party
the courage to come out fairly autl
squareiy for tbe single gold standard?
In tbe light of tbe history of tbe party
for the last quarter of a ceDtury
history oi quibbling, double dealing
and ambuscade on tbe money question
thin new departure cannot fail to ex
cite surpressed remark.
Explanation is easy, however when
it is remembered that republicans
claimed that “dollar wheat” was tb
result of the Dingley tariff, and that the
modicum of prosperity which followed
was brought about through the bene
ficient influence of republican legisla
tion.
In the presence of prosperity based
U|>on an exceptional condition of affairs
abroad famine in India and short
crops in wheat producing cotiu'-ies—
the republicans have gained coura;
to throw off the mask of bimetallism
and to advocate the single gold stan
dard.
That the democratic party welcomes
a battle in open is made manifest by the
action of ita state conventions, which
have uniformly demanded the free aud
unlimited coiuage of silver aud gold at
the ratio of Hi to 1, and have enthusias
tically recognized the Chicago platform
as containing the declaration of demo
cratic principles.
J ii l SOii the republicans fought under
cover. The St. Louis platform was n
cowardly evasion of the issue, aud the
republicans today admit this fact by
refraining from approval of that com
pact of dishonor.

Catarrh.
Catarrh is one of the m >* t obstinate
diseases, and hence the most difficult
to get rid of.
There is but one way to cure it.
The disease is in the blood, and uil the
fprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
in the world can have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swift’s Spe
cific cu re* Catarrh permanently, for it is
the only remedy which can reach the
disease nnd force it from the blood.
Mr. 11. P. McAllister,of Uurrodtdiurg,
Ky., had Catarrh for years. He writes:

To continue the wrong treatment for
Catarrh is to continue to suffer. Swift’s
Specific is a real blood rem dy, and

which other remedies have . effect
