If Jerome Is. Niles OF IlOSa, Will COIL
sent to take the Republican nomination
for auditor general the bosses will con.

Our brilliant astronomical cOntempor-
ary, the New York Sun, is exercised over
the fact that the planet Vulcan. if it ever
was seen, except in the imagination of the
| astronomers. has left tho skies.
WM. ii. ENGLISH, late Democratic can
didate for vice president, announces that
he is "out OF active politics and out to
stay, never intending, under any circum-
stances, to be a candidate for any office" ="
The proclamation was unnecessary.
IDAHO furnishes a new idea in jails.
They have Il hole in the ground out there.
into which they drop the prisoners, and
when one is wanted he is hauled up with
q rope A man with rifle at the mouth

the Northern Pacific with the Atlantic,
which will open up the development of

SENATOR ROLLINS has hard time OF it
| securing a reelection. He is further off
from it than when the voting began, but
he announces that he will never withdraw
nor consent to the breaking of tho dead
lock except by his own election. But, as
a majority of the New Hampshire Leg
lature refuses to Vote for him, it wonld
seem that the control of the situation is
not in his hands.

years ago or more the good people Of Cork
and Limerick, and OthOr cities as woll, had
Il habit of throwing handful of "brau 1"

tho "husks - of ground wheat, and they
were always witty enough to love and act

literature--the pun.
TIE Erie Obseroer, in common with
many OF the most intelligent Democratic
newspapers of the state, recognizes that
what tho people of Pennsylvania want in

Democratic majority in the House have
reflected public sentiment and they will he

canvass is made on state ISSUES" To
make it on any other plan would be no.
Ouly to invite. but to deserve defeat. Last
fall wo fought and won on state issues.

giug in outside questions since there is
neither congressman nor legislators to
elect.

Light other than OF dawning Skies
What new lite now lights up anew

And sOfta flame;
