1t is stated on the authority of Senator
Frye that Mr.. Randall is holding back the
appropriation bills in order to defeat the
Mills bill Can it be pc. sibe that he would
be guilty of trick of that kinds Failing
to defeat his party by fair means, would he
resort to unfair ones2
1t is fact that the appropriation bills
are further behind than they have ever be-
fore been at this stage of the session. Per
haps Mr.. Randall, who is chairman of the
Committee on Appropriations, can explain
why this is so. If he cannot the conclusion
is irresistible that he intends to call up the
appropriation bills just at the time the
House is ready to consider the tariff bill,
ana thus prevent its consideration at this
session. The appropriation bills have the
right of way, as it were, under the rules.
The New York Times takes occasion to
call attention to some features of Mr.. Ran
dalPs political career. He is a politician
pure and simple He has no other occupa-
ton and no profession. For thirty years
he has lived off his earnings as an office
holder. For twenty-five years he has been
member of Congress, and in that time has
drawn SE25,00O in salary, besides some
thousands of dollars in mileage. He does
not live in his district, and does not even
live in the city which he represents He
pays no taxes there except SOC. poll tax
every two years. His district is what is
called shoe-string district-that is, it is
arranged with the object of making it
Democratic
The Republicans have had control of
Pennsylvania for many years, but they
have never disturbed Mr.. Randalls district,
although they could easily change its lines
so as to make it Republican. This shows
that they regard Mr.. Randall as of more
value TO them than any Republican couli
possibly be. Is it not about time that the
Democratic leaders were inquiring whether
Mr.. Randall is not working in the interest
OF the Republican party rather than in that
of the party with which he afTiliatess

In the Doubtful Column.

The Democratic State Committee of Hi
nois met in Chicago Che other day. and the
fact was brought out that the Democrats
have strong hopes of carrying tina State
next fall. The Republican ma iortv, they
say, has been steadily decreasing for years.
and that in The next election IA sufficient
number of Republicans will become Demo
Gratis or ProhibitioniStS to enable the
Democrats to carry the State.
The tariff will be the main issue in the
election. Mr.. Blaine was very quick to
answer the Presidents message and to
place his party in the position of accepting
the issue made therein. He thought it
would be one on which the Republicans
had the best chance of winning 1t seems.
however, that he did not understand the
extent to which the tariff reform sentiment
had spread. In Illinois the Democrats have
cause to hope that they will gain the votes
of "A large number of farmers who have
learned that a protective tariff imposes
hardships upon them that they are not
able to bear.
1T would not be wise for Democrats to
count confidently on success ia Illinois,
although Democratic victory there is pos
sibe. 1t Is quite evident that the Republi-
cans will make a vigorous fight to hold the
State.
1t is encouraging, however, to see signs
of Democratic activity in the States which
are regarded as Republican. But the brunt
OF the battle will be in the really doubtful
States as heretofore

A WOMAN OF TASTE.
How This Rare Faculty is Made Sala-
BILE Commodity.
From the Chicago Neus.

From the Chicago NeWs.
"a woman of wonderful taste"
Remarkable taste. She makes her living
b. it."
"How?''
"She sells it"
Sells what?''
Her taste
The speakers were two men. The listener was
tired of looking at the frozen lake and the mel
anchoy gulls, and was willingto eavesdrop.
How can taste be a salabe Sommodity;"
1T seems to me that it is rare enough to bring
a good price anywhere. But to the charm
ing woman, will tell you how it came about
She is lady Of very unusal refinement and
cultivation. She is not beautiful, as you knew;
but she is always picturesque, and can enter a
company of young and pretty girls and yet win
all attention to herself by the exquisite repose
OF her manners, by her poetical dresses and her
interesting conversation. Three years ago her
husband died. She was heart broken. For q
time her mind was unsettled She had always
lived IN luxury and awoke TO sudden realiza-
ton, in addition to her other trouble, that she
was possessed Of but a few hundred dollars. She
had no trade and no profession. She had simply
spent her life in cultivating her mind and man
ners in desultory way. An acquaintance with
Emerson and Gautier was not going to help her
to take care of her two children.
And yet she is a woman of such wonderful
taste, her friends would say sympathizingy
when she complained of having nothing to do
Ihese words were flung at her till she grew deS-
perate. One day she informed them that since
taste seemed to be her best possession, she
should make living out of it. She had very
large social acquaintance, and she visited all of
her friends. What she said was:
W mar are you going To wear this spring, and
what snail you do to your houseY They didn't
exactly know. People very seldom do She
said she would decide for tuem if they would
pay her for it. They were enchanted. You'll
DO 1t just right they all cried; you know, dear
you have such taSte!'
Inc charming woman made tour of Chi
cago shops Then she went to New York She
VISITED the art exhibits. That year her friends
were dressed as they never had been before
Every one had gown of the color and cut
winch best suited her The hats were ravish-
ing. The combinations of color in the cos
tunes were as original as they were beautiful
Even the fat women were satisfied with them
selves AS for the houses, they looked very
much altered Here and there she employed
the seVerest simplicity; again she used oriental
lavlshness She gave character to each apart
ment-and truth compes me to say that she
spent mint of money. She has had grow
ing success from year to year. Beyond doubt
she Is one of the most successful business
women IN Chicago, as well as one of the most
aesthetic"
kenwoOd, shouted the conductor
"Good-by. If you want your house made
beautiful or your wife dressed like Persian
she is the woman for you"

Colored Men as Jurors.

The cOlored men who recently met in
convention in Georgia adopted resolution
demanding larger representa- ion of their
race on jurieS. The reason upon which
this resolution is based is not very clear.
White men arc not anxious to do jury duty.
The majority of them avoid it whenever
tley can. There are some who have no
objection to it because it enables them to
earn few dollars, and there are others
who never shirk any of the duties which
devolve upon thom as citizens 1t is quite
safe to say, however, that about all white
men would be glad if they were wholly re-
lieved of jury duty.
Why, then, are the colored men so anxious
to geto juies' Do they think that the
position of iurymcn increases their import
ance' If they do they are greatly mistaken.
An ignorant juryman is an object of con-
tempt. His fellow jurymen have no respect
for him and the public ridicules him.
Colored men should not demand to beput
into the jury box until they are fitted to
discharge the duties of a jurymau. Some
are fitted, hut the percentage of them who
are is small. There are too many ignorant
jurymen now. IL the proportion were in
creased verdicts would command much less
respect than they do.
Colored men viii he admitted into the
jury lox in greater numbers when they are
qualified to go there. The thing for them
to do, therefore, is to prepare themselves
for their duties as citizens. Let them edu-
cate themselves and increase their worldly
possessions. In proportion as they become
property holders their selfrespect will in
crease, and as that increases they will look
at things differently from what they now do.
