The Mail and Express Of New York
publishes the following:
s.The first oil the Fall elections will
occur in Ohio. 1t is expected that the
result will in q measure influence cleo
tions in other States, and possibly the
Presidency, John Sherman can have
the Republican nomination if he wants
Il. Foster is not . candidate. 1t Sher-
man refuses to be q candidate-and his
friends are by no means certain OF 1t
the contest will be between Butterworth,
Mckinley, Judge Lawrence and James
Monroe. On the Democratic side the
contest seems to be between Judge Hoad-
ly and Judge Geddes, with the chances
IN favor OF the latter. Foster was elected
by about 1900 majority, though last
FaIi = Democratic Secretary Of State
was elected by $4,000 majority. But
the liquor question entered into the con,
test, and the great tidal wave that rolled
over thevcountry was perccptibiy felt IN
the Buckeye State. Ohio is a Republi-
can State when all the voters go to the
polls. This will be a good year for
every Republican to use his right OF
franchise"
The election in Ohio, the Salt Lake
Tribune thinks, will be . strong indica-
tion of the settled convictions OF voters.
The causes which brought around the
result last year in Pennsylvania n
New York were not SO prominent IN
Ohio, though they had an existence there.
But something else was manifested when
was quite as significant, and which in its
effect is liable to be more lasting than
the burst of venomous passion which
struck the Empire and keystone States.
It is believed by many that the German
vote has permanently withdrawn. from
the Republican party in the old North
west. Prohibition has been carried so
far by eager Republicans that the Ger
mans have construed the warfare upon
strong drink into an infringement OF
their personal rights, and party ties
being greatly weakened. they last year
went over to the Democracy almost in a
body. The city elections OF this Spring
indicate that they voted the same way,
and the particular significance which will
attach to the election in Ohio this
Fall will be ON that account. 1t is
almost certain that the Prohibitionists
will be more fierce in their onslaughts
this year than last, and the chances are
all in favor of the Democracy.

AxTr.MONOPOLY.

The United States Supreme Court has
actually rendered n decision against a
railroad company-namely, in the So
called "Granger case," Of Neal Rugales
against the people Of the State OF
Illinois, in which the question is raised
whether the charter granted to the City
Military Tract Railroad Company, now
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Rail-
road, by the Legislature of Illinois in
1882, or any subsequent amendment
thereto, contains such contract between
the State and the company a. authorizes
the company to establish it, own rates
Of fare and freight beyond interference
by the State. The Court answers this
question in the negative, and holds that
the Directors Of the railroad company
cannot adopt any bylaw fixing rates Of
fare and freight which are in conflict
with the laws Of the State relating to
the same subject. The Judgment OF the
Superior Court Of Illinois 10 affirmed.

A Delighted Applet Woman.

Of ex-Mayor Green, of Boston, the
Gazette of that city relates the following
story: "Apoor old apple woman form
Urly had stand in front of the United
States Courthouse, at the corner OF
Temple Place and fremont Street.
Some time ago she was ordered away,
and she moved her stand to one locality
after another. but neither her customers
nor her profits followed her. The ex-
Mayor learned of her misfortune, and
comforted her with the assurance that
he would see to it that she got good
location again if she would be patient.
He accordingly addressed a personal
letter to the Secretary of the Treasury
in Washington, telling that official of
the apple woman's misfortune, adding
that she was the mother of fourteen
rosy-faced children. The ex-Mayor for
warded the endorsement of Assistant
United States Treasurer Kennard. Dis
trict Attorney Sanger. and United States
Marshal Banks, and an application was
promptly forwarded to Washington re-
questing that the apple woman be al
lowed to resume her old stand. A
prompt response was received, and di-
rections were sent to the proper official
here to allow the apple woman to oc-
cupy her old place. The directions were
promptly obeyed and ..ae apple woman
is happy"

The Pistol Fool.

The pistol has 4 harvest of victims
every week. The circumstances are
accidental or criminal, sometimes both
and often criminally accidental. The
sad case of Beal who was shot by
'Frickett on Sound steamer. the two
men being partners in business nj
Boston, is a common illustration near
home. Frickett heard noise, woke
and blazed away, killing his partner.
We are not surprised to hear that he is
completely unnerved;'' that is as
natural rs that "a gloom" should be
..thrown over the entire community
when leading citizens shoot each other
down South. and no arrests follow. One
singular reason given for Frickett' s
sleeping with pistol under his pillow
is that he has done so since his marriage
because Ibis wife was of a nervous
temperament" A wife of such nerv-
Gus temperament that she requires q
loaded revolver in bed to calm her silly
fears would be a genuine home comfort
for the Car.
Generally the pistol fool wakes up
and shoots his wife. Such instances
are frequently reported in our news
columns. Sometimes, however, he does
not live to get married, but only to be
refused. In that case he resorts newt
ably to his revolver. He resents the
exercise of woman's unquestioned right
to refuse proposals of marriage as a
crime to be avenged only in blood; he
invests in a cheap revolver and peppers
her, and then perhaps shoots himself
the Workmanship in both cases being
generally bad. A man who will take
this way of ending love affair is first
class idiot.
The murder of whole family at
Brooklyn was all due to pistol idiocy.
The brother of the murdered man be-
lieves that the mother had pistol and
in excitement shot her boy, that the
father tried to take the pistol from her
and shot her, and then, realizing that
the boy was dead to whom he was
devoted, shot himself.-Springfeid

Poised on His Collar.

noticed an approved specimen of a
dude going uptown recently in a horse
car, accompanied by a very charming
young girl. He held ten-cent
piece for his fare in his carefully gloved
hand. As the conductor approached
he seemed to become nervous, and
dropped the coin. Of course his i'm
pulse was to pick it up. He stopped
and put his hand down to the floor.
But his high collar held his neck like a
vice, and stoop as he would he could
mot get his eyes lower than the knees of
