The Scotch-Ir Congress which
is to assemble at Columbia, Tenn, on
the 9th of May next, promises to be
a large gathering of distinguished
men from all parts of the country
Certainly the Scotch Irish strain can
furnish as many citizens of that char
acter as any other. Senator q. B.
Vance, of. North Carolina, Colonel
Mcclure, of the Philadelphia Times,
Henry w. Grady, of the Atlanta
Constitution, and DR. John Hall, of
New York, are down for addresses
on the occasion. Gov. Taylor, of
Tennessee, is to extend the formal
welcome and has already issued an
address extending the hospitalities of
that Stabe-to the Scotch Irish race
all over the world. He says: "No
political or sectarian significance at
taohes TO the Congress. Its object
is to revive the memories of the race
and collect materials for compiling
history showing their impress upon
modern civilization, especially upon
American institutions" There should

For near two weeks Shreveport
has been afflicted with Yellowstone
Kit, who runs free show and sells
worthless liver pads. The Times
and Democrat have both made Wig
orous and praiseworthy fight against
Kit-"one of the greatest nuisances"
they have ever been called upon to
denounce-but Kit, at last accounts,
still held the fort, and was gathering
IN the dollars, while, we are told,
several white tramps are pounding
rock on the street." It seems there
la no law to reach this diamond be-
dizened fellow who boasts of his i'll
gotten wealth, and bodily snaps his
fingers in the face of those who would
gladly be rid of his unwelcome pres
ence. There certainly should be a
legal way to get rid Of, or punish
such characters as Yellowstone Kit
as well the moneyless tramp, and
the sooner we have such law the
better for the public. Of the two
evils, we prefer the poor tramp to
tho millionaire Kit.

A Washington correspondent takes
occasion to remark that the action of
the United States Senate in confer
ring power upon the Committee of
Privileges and Elections to sit during
the recess will give Mr.. Hoar tho op-
portunity he has so much at heart
to poke his nose into the local poll
tics and affairs of the South. Mani
fBstly there could be no other reason
for desiring this authority. While
Mr. Hoar is discovering political in
Justices in the South, it would be
well for him to extend his inquiries
80 as to embrace Massachusetts and
other New England States He will
have no trouble in finding in all of
them minority rule and political cor
ruption far in excess of anything al
legged by him to exist in the South.

Jonathan Chace, of Rhode Island,
resigned his seat in the United States
Senate, it is said, because he is firmly
convinced that he was elected by the
corrupt use of Doodle.
Hero is something for Senator Hoar
and the other Republican squire bal
lot advocates to ponder over and if
they are as fair minded as they pro-
Tess to be they surely must reach the
conclusion that Rhode Island policy
is badly needed.
But it is not expected that these
