DOGS, SAUSAGES, AND A FIGHT.
Editor Rorke's Two Jottings Arouse
the Ire OF the village Butcher.

The Village Item, of Buckville, Pa,
contained these two items, one following
the other, in the local notes:
The citizens of Marbleton are mourning
the loss of twenty valuable dogs, poisoned
by some miscreant.
Butcher Segar of Marbleton announces
that he has just made up large batch of
fine, large sausages.
The items were inserted with no inten-
ton of perpetrating a joke, even by in
sinuation Editor Rorke hadn't even no.
ticed the peculiar combination that might
be made with them. The first intima-
that he had that his paper had created
sensation was when Butcher Segar came
up his Office steps three at time, and,
bursting into the Office, knocked Editor
Rorke off the stool he was sitting on, and
then knocked the waste paper around
like flying snow fakes with his helpless
body. The butcher was torn loose from
the astounded and broken-up editor by
the compositor and the devil.
"Now, maype, by Cott, you brindts me
again dose sosage vos bizent tog maidt
up, alretty!" he yelled. Maybe you
vos teenk now dot vos Won sosage ma
chimes myselluf. proke on der rampaitch
oudt! Maybe don't vos vairce as a
bizent tog myselluf, py chimmity!
Huh ?"
The compositor and the devil led the
irate butcher down stairs. Editor Rorke
repaired his damages as well as he could.
Then he looked over the columns of his
paper to find out what he was indebted
to for one large head and disfgured
suit of clothes. He found out. He saw
that some of the boys had interpreted the
nonsense. That didn't stop Editor Rorke
from going out and having Segar arrested,
all the same, and the butcher had to pay
him $50 for his little pastime in the edit
or's sanctum.

The Cleveland Plain-Dealer says con-
cerning Ohio's new Governor:

Like his predecessor, Governor Foraker is
in favor Of non-partisan management of the
public institutions, and he declares he will
make no changes for political reasons. It
will require stout backbone to carry out
this resolution. and we can only hope that
Governor Foraker may be equal to the
strain.
That is good resolve, and we hope
that Governor Foraker will stand square
on it, come what may. Very likely his
party will want him to turn all the Dem
ocrats out now, and begin civil-service re-
form after clearing the Offices of Demo-

Is IT not an infringement of the Gov

the Legislature to pay for a messenger
for the Executive Office?

THE Governor is true Kentuckian
and great lover of horses. Hence the
value he attaches to the Messengers.
