According to report, the Mexicans
must be among the politest people on
the globe. Even the robbers are gen.
tlemen, and when they are obliged to
rob, really put one under obligation for
their attention. An instance is given
of pretty speech made by Mexican
robber in appropriating a pair of ear
rings: Possessing such bright eyes,
sonora, what need have you of these
dull stones?"

MIR. s. c. Pomeroy, formerly a Re-
publican Senator from Kansas, and
still remembered as a canting states
man of Schuyler Colfax breed, has
turned up in Washington after too
short a disappearance from politics.
He is trying to steer precarious boom
for a supposed new party to be called
the Prohibition and Anti-Secret Socie-
ty Party. The reduction Of the rest OF
the United States to the condition OF
Maine, and the suppression of Daugh-
tiers of Rebecca and knights of Pyth-
las, may be the momentous issues for
which the people are pining, but we
fear that they will not call Pomeroy to
represent their principles.
It Is probable that Pemerey has
marked himself for the head Of the
ticket, but he is too late. Among the
priests of prohibition Father Neal Dow
has the call, and even In Kansas itself
ex-GOv. st. John is q more persistent
and inveterate prohibitionist than
Pomeroy. And the Rev. Jonatnan
blanchard of Illinois College is already
In the field as a candidate for President
on the anti-secret society platform.
Poor Pomeroy! He survives ana ne Is
left.
The object of his visit to Washington
was to induce Mr.. Blanche K. Bruce to
run for Vice-President on the Pome-
roy platform. Mr. Bruce will not lis
ten to Pomeroys proffers, and the sec
ond place Oh the ticket is open to any
eligible colored man. unexpectedly
suggest the name of the Rev. John
Jasper on an anti-astrOnOmical plat
form. It will be easier to wrestle with
Copernicus than with the Good Tenn
plars.-N. Y. Sun.

"The truth s," said one of the Raper men, "those

and had colOred man carry 1t in

placed last, and it tickled us fellows so that we
could hardly keep from laughing in their faces.
They were awfully sore because they were so bad

one of their papers aluded to us. With De Moay
II was different. They are gentlemen, and we got
along well with them. If st. Bernard had beat

had reliable information that st. Bernard was
only marked thirty-seven out OF n possible one
hundred by the judges, and their drill was
openly riGiculed by those who saw it.
A Journal reporter who was III Chicago on
Saturday heard several ST. Bernard men trying
to explain their defeat, when a candid but dis
gusted citizen remarked: "Oh, damn 1t, let up
on that. Why don't you acknowledge that you
were Outdrilled, and not try TO find some baby
