THAT SUPPLY DEPOT.

The GLOBE calls the attention OF the
chamber of commerce to the necessity OF at
once placing before the commissioner OF
the Indian affairs arguments in behalf OF
the selection OF St. Paul as the proper loca-
ton for the national warehouse for Indian
suDplies. Omaha is the latest city which
has decided to present claims for being Sc
Iected. and will enter the list with Kansas
CITY. Chicago and ST. Louis. The argyll
ments are TO be heard or read, as the case
NAV be. by the commissioner during the
present week. and if st. Paul is going
TO do anything toward securing what
would be very important factor
in her commercial life she must
be I'D and doing. She certainly can present
stronger reasons than any of the cities
mentioned why she should be chosen in
preference to them, for her comparative
contiguity to the larger Indian reservations
of the country gives her an obvious
advantage. But unless st. PauPs claims
are presented soon and vigorously il
will be too late. and aprize which
she might as well have will be
captured by some one of the less deserving
cities. Let the Chamber of Commerce take
cognizance of the matter. and at least take
steps to place the advantages of this city be-

A NOVEL SUGGESTION,


Judge DOoLITTIE, of Chicago, in his
address at the recent banquet of the
Iroquois club made a suggestion startling
in its novelty and yet presenting features
sure to attract thoughtful attention. He
advocates the granting to married men who
are householders of two votes. one on their
own account and one on behalf OF their
families. The suggestion has much in it
that would commend a scheme of franchise
based upon the lines indicated. The house
holder is the responsible person in the
community. Not only does he con-
tribute the larger part of all taxes.
but upon him fall most of the
burdens of citizenship. while his privi-
leges are no greater than those of the un-
married man or non-householder. But the
safeguard of every community is to be
found in the homes it contains. They form
the conservative element which holds in
check the more unruly and radical element,
always restless and always ready to lend its
support to reckless and chimerical schemes.
To those, then, who establish and maintain
the homes, it would be but natural to grant
greater influence than to those who have
nothing at stake, whose interest in the main.
tenance of society is limited to purely sell
fish considerations. and who cannot always
be relied upon to be on the safe side in
questions of political and social importance.
Those who are the heads of homes form
the backbone of the state, and any augment
ing of their influence can have none Other
than a good effect. Judge DoOLITTLE's
scheme may not find ready adoption, but il
is certainly worthy Of earnest and intelli-
gent consideration.

A MISTAKEN IDEA.

Congressman-ElectB BAKER. who enjoys
the distinction of having defeated MORRISON
at the recent election. celebrates his entry
again into public life in very doubtful
manner, through his personal and violent
attack upon newspaper reporter by whom
he thought he had been miSrepreSented, but
who, on the contrary, seems to have in
CURED BAKERS enmity simply because he
warmly espoused the cause of MORRISON.
The congressman made the mistake so
frequently made by politicians and others
of supposing reporter to be personally
responsible for anything he may put into
print. The misguided individuals who
'twant to see the writer of that article" are
familiar to every newspaper Office, and no
amount of reasoning, as a general thing, is
able to convince them that the paper itself
and not an individual writer. except in pc
culiar instances, is responsible Cor pubica-
tons by which they may consider them
selves aggrieved. 1t is the reporters duty

Horace GreeIey's BIunder.

The Journalist.
MIR. Greeley was queer character, and
could be funny when he liked. He was one
OF the originators of the American insti-
tute, and naturally took deep interest in
its welfare. When the annual exhibition
was in progress the Tribune columns were
full of it. Sometimes Mr.. Greeley took a
hack at it himself. Though strictly tenn
perate man, he one day astOnished the staff
by writing a paragraph on the wine ex-
hibit, saying that it included port, sherry,
cIaret, Cliquot, Mumm, Roederer and chain
payne. The staff were laughing over the
old gentleman's blunder when he came in
and asked the cause. The slip of the pen
being pointed out, Mr.. Greeley remarked in
his squeaky voice: ''Well, I'm about the
only man on this paper who could make
such id foolish mistake as that"

Advice TO McGill.

MOTIFS ITIDuHt.
The Republican majority has been cut
down this year by farmers who are suspi-
cious of the influences apparently back of
Goyernor-Elect McGill. Much in the future
now depends upon Mr.. McGlll and his ap-
preaching administration. If he boldly fol-
lows the spirit of the Republican platform
and acts in accordance with the interests of
the whole people, all will be we'll. If, how
ever, he allows those to whom he owes his
nomination and election to control his official
actions, nothing, not even the unworthiness
of opposition candidates, will save the Re-
publican party from overwhelming defeat at
the next general election. The Republicans
of the state will tolerate ring rule no longer.

Can't DO 1t Again.
Atlanta Constitution

1t is said that when Senator Jones. of Flor
ida, was elected to the senate in 1876 he was
a member of the legislature and voted for
himself. The funny part of the business is
that his vote was necessary to effect the cleo
ton and he thus practically elected himself.
When Jones saw that his vote was necessary
to q choice he drew himself up to his full
height and looking severely at the presiding
officer, said: I'm the name and by the COM
mand of the 5000 Democrats of Escambia
county, cast my vote for Charles W. Jones'"
The assembly burst into uproarious laughter
and applause. Jones had the balance of
power and used it with conscientious regard
for the public welfare and his own.

One evening at the theater
A maid before me sat,
Whose gentle brow was shaded
BY an elephantine hat.
A plume upon it nodded,
The flaring brim was wide.
And bristlng bits of various birds
Stuck out on every side.
1t lowered above the footlights,
Aggressively and loud;
The actors were Invisible.
The play was in cloud.
I could not see the stage at all,
And scarcely heard the star,
Whose voice came round that awful hat.
An echo from afar.
Between the acts she turned her head;
Her face was fair to see,
And innocent of all ofense,
She dropped a smile to me.
knew her then. o cruel fate,
My heart went pit-a-pat;
would have loved that maiden, bu,
could not love her hat.
And now two lives are blighted,
Forever stale and fiat;
For over both there grimly falls
The shadow of the hat.
