THE A.,,,.IC MAN-EATEKS.

THE A..,.IC MAN-EATERS.
The story now comes over the
wires that for weeks before the
Greedy party was rescued the sur
vivors had been living off the flesh
of their dead comrades The story
that is told is something tragic and
terrible in all its bearings, and
carrys the reader beyond the
verge of the widest fiction. It is
further claimed that some of the
men were killed to be eaten and that
the bullet mark was found on one
Of the skeletons brought back to
civilization. The story Of this
band of men who had left New
York with an almost brotherly af-
lection for one another, sitting in a
lonely hut in the Attic region and
day after day watching each others
faces like wild beasts of prey and
picking out some weak man to
murder in the night is something
from which the most morbid imag-
ination recoils. Yet look at the
picture from what point you may,
the idea of holding the survivors
responsible for what they did while
on the verge of starvation, madness
and despair is repulslve to every
idea Of justice. What man under
the circumstances would not feed
upon the dead if he thought it
would tide him over another week
until the rescuing ship would bear
him back to the welcoming arms
Of his wife and the longed for |
prattle of his children. It was a
desperate battle for existence, the |
life to- which We al cling so ten
aciously, and one can throw the |
CLOAK of charity over the final re-
sort to killing, with the presump-
ton that the man who fired the |
shot was temporarily insane over
the horrors Of the situation.

THE POLITICAL ORATOR.

The Eureka Leader hearing that
W. W. Bishop is to come back this
Fall and make . canvass Of the
State, raises a strenuous objection
% the proportion alleging that
Bishop loses votes for the party
every time he opens his mouth.
While We believe this to be true of
Bishop, it il no more true Of him
than any other political speakerin
the State. We have never yet
heard of man who changed his
politics because he heard his
party denounced by . public
speaker. Here and there one finds
. speaker who appeals to the rea-
SON of his audience and presents
facts and figures relative to the is
sues involved in the campaign, but
no man who has made up his mind
- to which party be belongs will
allow his politics to be changed in
. single night by the statements Of
IN itinerant orator, whom probably
he has never seen before and never
expects to see again, or at least un-
til the nextcampaign washes him in
town. Political speakers, as a rule,
indulge in round abuse of the op-
posite party, and it is folly to sup
pose that abusing a mans party
principles or in many insta1 IS
libeling them atrociously will win
his vote. Now and then a man
rises up, who, by the witchery
of his delivery and the magnetism
Of his eloquence, could 60 move
crowd that if the vote was taken at
the close of his speech he might
capture every man in the hall. But
the man does not walk the face Of
the earth who can so win votes at
II o'clock at night that he can be
sure of controlling them at II
o'clock the next morning.
The Newspaper is the proper We
hicle of the argument to be used
in a campaign. Through them there
is q constant and ceaseless presen-
tation of facts, which, like the con-
tinuous drip of water, wearsits way.
Men who read the daily papers and
have = chance to compare the state
ments at leisure, and thousands
who are in doubt about the right
way to follow, will, in the long run,
be Influenced by the right Of the |
case. Spending thousands Of dol
lars for campaign oratory is just so |
much money thrown away.

THE Grand Duke Louis of Hesse seems

THE Grand Duke Louis of Hesse seems
to be in rather hard luck. After the
death of his wife, the Princess Alice Of
England, he contracted a morganatic al
lance with a beautiful adventures. A
legal marriage between himself and the
Princess Beatrice, Victoria's youngest
daughter, was proposed, but his left hand
connection with Madame Kalomine
aroused a very extraordinary amount of
v%irtuous Indignation On the supposition
that the English Parliament would make
marriage with a deceased wife's sister
legal, the Duke was induced to break of
his alliance with the Madame, who was
handsomely pensioned off on condition
that she lived away from England and
Germany. Everything was then appar-
emily lovely, but such pressure has been
brought TO bear on Kaiser William, prob
ably by the Crown Princess, that the Duke
has received a hint that his rupture of
relations with the Kalomine woman was
not altogether ereditable, and that it
might be advisable to resign in favor of
his son. Just at this m the Duke
must be in a quandary.

FROM the official reports sent 10 the
Government by Consul Mason, at Mar
%seiIles, it appears that n general misap-
%prehension regarding the true condition
of French cholera-infected cities existed
on this side of the water, The sanitary
condition of both Toulon and Marseilles
were both carefully looked after. The
trouble, he thinks, arose from the garbage
collected in the enclosed port at the former
city. The sanitary regulations in all the
French cities are now said to be admirable,
but the care bestowed at this late date is
much after the principle Of the old pro-
verb in closing the stable door after the
horse has been stolen. Many American
cities are no better provided against the
incursions of this dreadful scourge than
was either Marseilles or Toulon, and the
terrible visitation which has decimated
the towns Of Fran F., should be accepted
as a warning to thoroughly and radically
cleanse the cities on this side Of the water.
