SPAIN ON HER HIGH HORSE.
Will any important fact in the politics
Of Europe turn upon the absurd petulance
of the Parisians or the ridiculous indigna-
ton of the S~paniards? International
politics is not yet mere child's play, even
in Europe, though it is pretty near it.
Therefore it is probable that this storm
win blow over, but there is plenty Of pre-
cedent for making war on such occasions.
Even in 1870 the final fact that lighted
the train was q personal affront. One
Benedict, the personal representative OF
Napoleon, reported that he had been in
suited by the King Of Prussia in the street
at Ems. and, as when one schoolboy
knocks . chip of another schoolboy's
shoulder, it was held that that must nec-
essarily involve . fight, SO Germany and
France went at il and made . very melan-
choly chapter Of modern history. But At
that time Europe was ready for war. War
was on the cards. Prussia and France
had waged . duel Of preparation for several
years, and Napoleon. embittered by the re-
Election that he had lost his great oppor-
tunity in 1865, was stung to the necessity Of
retrieving his position by war, while reor-
ganized Germany, confident Of its own
great strength and we'll informed Is to the
condition Of things in the French army,
was equally eager to seize An occasion. At
that moment, therefore, . trivial fact was

kings who hold the dogs Of war in leash
are very oonsiderate Of the opinions Of
mankind when they consent to pretend

: respect for opinion has made its way.
But Z trivial reason was sufficient then

We have placed the rooster overhead.
The news justiies it. 1t is good - far -
it goes. Two Republican strongholds have
been shaken from center to circumference,
if not absolutely captured. The people
have risen in their majesty and thrown off
the shackles Of corrupt Republican rule.
Our dispatches are meager. but they
emanate from well-informed sources. Ohio
is claimed to nave been carried for Hoadly
by q majority Of $1,000 by the astute poll
tician John G.. Thompson, formerly . Sec
rotary Of the United States Senate and
latterly Chairman Of the Democratic State
Central Committee. The absence Of any
claims from the Republicans virtually
comedies the State to the Democracy.
The Prohibition Amendment appears to
have been lost, although q most deter
mined fight was waged in favor Of it by the
ladies, who did not confine their labors to
either party.
Iowa is doubtful. Both parties claim
the State. The Republicans believe they
have it by $1,000 majority, and the Demo
Gratis put in . bid for IL. 900. It would
indeed be q glorious revolution to see
this hotbed Of Republicanism turned over
to the Democracy.

swept over the East last Fall, which will

Not Always the Meet Desirable.

The wisest men unite in the belief that
intensely intelligent women are not always
the most desirable companions. Auerbach,
in "On the Hights," describes the Coun-
tess Irma, with all her wit. grace and
beauty as "an un~speakably fatiguing
woman, requiring an everlasting firework
display of mind" Pyrotechnic displays
are wonderful and delightful, but an eter-
nal Fourth Of July, mental or material,
would soon wear put the stanchest man.
