THE DEMOCRATIC STANDBY.

game; pow we know what tocount upon. For two years the
Democrats were looking for new issues all around the horizon. They tried to make one out of opposition to whatever
was done or proposed by the administration or a Republican
Congress, opposition even to the army and navy and to the
power of the United States to do anything as a nation beperennial.

These infant issues refused to live because the people
would not take to them. Senator Martin admits ‘that free

he does not even refer to them. There are the “trusts,”” but
he does not know what to do with them except to revise. the
Tariff. That, he fancies, may dispose of them. In short,
for Democrats it would dispose of anything that is in the
way, but best of all it disposes of the necessity of having any
‘other issue. “If the Democratic party were in a position to
revise the tariff,” he says, “it could relieve the country of the
This is an old, old cry. Whatever the burdens of the

the old party. It shows that it has nothing left except this
heirloom of the past. What we are chiefly burdened with
now-is business. We have to keep at work and pile up
wealth; this everlasting industry and trade is wearying. We
can get rid of it by revising the Tariff and have such a comfortable rest as came in 1893. It is the one thing the Democrats can think of for relief. ane a

Have Your Own Ideas:
Don’t Be An imitator.
TYLE in literature, painting and action, is a thing
very easy to discern and very difficult to define, Style
as the great French naturalist said, isthe man.
Style is onl other name for personality. It may
be good or bad as the personality of which it is the expression is good or bad. In literature, when a man’s personality
shines out and shows in his work, he has style. Literary
Style does not consist in keeping grammatical and rhetorical
rules or in the nice use of words. Some of the correctest
writers have been cold, neutral, colorless, tameless. Their
work has lacked individuality. Therefore it has lacked
style. When a writer’s work can be distinguished from all
other men’s work by certain intrinsic characters he has a
literary style. One could pick out an uncredited paragraph
by Edmund Burke, by Carlyle, by Shakespeare anywhere
and tell they wrote it. Those great men infused their personalities into all that they wrote. They put their very
Spirits into their ink bottles, as it were. So, too, in painting,
connoisseurs can distinguish an unsigned Raphael from an
unsigned Rembrandt or Titian by the style of it. Style,
however, does not consist in tricks, mannerisms or affectations
of any sort. One might be able to distinguish the work of
a certain author by his use of peculiar words or spellings,
but his work could not be said to have style on that account.
Style is an intrinsic character and proceeds from the personality of the man.
Men of strong. character have a style of their own in
everything they do. Aman may show style in managing a
case in court, in examining a patient,
in preaching a sermon, in wearing clothes, in walking and
riding, in dressing a shop window, in advertising goods for
sale, in chopping wood, in editing a newspaper, in governing
a State, in eating dinner.
In every trade, from literature to plumbing, there are a
few masters who have a style all their own, and a great
number of journeymen who do their work well and correctly,
but without style or distinction. ‘The man who aspires to be
among the first in his business, and that is a praiseworthy
ambition in any man, should throw his personality into his
work. Style, good style, is acquired by hard labor, constant
thinking about one’s work and great interest and enthusiasm
in it.” The men who have style are the leaders: The rest
are imitators.
