The United States senate has shrunk
somewhat as viewed by the general eye
since its display of spleen at the Gin
cinnati editor.
WISCONSIN feels flattered at being put
in the military department of Dakota.
1t establishes a sort of relationship with
the handsome young sisters.
Mrs. HELEN DAUvRAY WARD urges
the ladies to patroniZe base ball. Prob
ably some of them would like to follow
her example and marry ball player.
GARRISON follows the .policy of the
Strafinn HE c1,nl-an of Inv
Iowa papers as a little boy, is made
private secretary at a salary of S1,600.
The eonundrum in political circles is
as to who at Washington says thumbs
up" effectively. Some name BENJAMIN,
and others JAMES. 1t will be more
certain a little later in the game.
AN oFFICEsEEKER who came back
from Washington empty-handed relates
that he got most of his handouts along
the journey by offering to let the good
lady shake the hand that Fl ARRIsoN
shook. None shook, however.
The forests in Central Africa where
STANLEY wandered so many weary
months are as extensive as all the Da-
kotas doubled. The statement may not
be palatable to the friends on the west,
and it may be that STANLEY is a little
Haggardy.
SOME of the Mormon elders are re-
Stunning the sort OF talk they use to in
dulge in under Republican administra-
tiOns, and there is nothing heard at
Washington about eXpunging that
''relic of barbarism." Perhaps they
are ali too busy eXpunging Democrats
from Office.
The historian will record that CLEvE-
LAND did not follow the political tradi-
ton that offices are the rewards of party
services, while it will be difficult to
evolve such theory from the course of
his successor. There has been little
else done so far but to distribute fed
eral offices in payment of party obliga-
lions. or to reward a personal friend
and provide easy berths for relatives.
A ST. LOUIS paper exhibits its enter
prise by interviews with several hun
dred ladies on politics. Most of them
were in favor of prohibition for the men,
but didn't care to vote. One was pleased
with all of President HARRIsoN's cab
met, except the Vermont man. The
obnoxious feature with him was that he
had whiskers, but no muslache. This
was enough to cause distrust of any
man.
TITS stated that the money circula-
ton of the United States is S37, DOC, 900
greater than year ago, and $50, 00O. 600
in excess of two years ago. This is not
suggestive of initiation. Its not larger
per cent of increase than the natural
growth of business should require.
With total estimated at 81. 406, 4Sl 900,
there should not be any check to the de-
velopment by reason of stringency in
the money market.
One of the peculiarihes of the cleo
ton laws in Rhode Island is that, after
two trials to elect members of the legis-
lature in any district. the old members
may hold over another year. The con-
troll OF the legislature, state government,
and, perhaps, senator, was at stake at
the second trial in certain districts the
past week, and it is said the Repu6li-
cans rallied and ran the price of votes
up to s20-and, of course, won.
THE domestic feature of the admins
tration may not touch the popular heart
as did the one that gracefully retired at
its advent, but it has STARE in shaping
things. 1t routed the colored forces in
its range, and the president has since,
under the same inspiration, assured the
cOlored men of the South that while he
comedies their right to live and vote the
ticket, they must not expect him to give
them anything to speak of. He wants
them to take the rearmost pews and let
the white folks sit up front.
The legislature that met in Rhode
Island this week anu elected a United
States senator was not the new body
elected the first Of this month, but
some old legislature kept Oh hand.
But few states can afford to have more
than one of these institutions in opera
ton at one time. 1t is probably the
newer one that meets in June. 1t is
asserted by experts that a Legislature in
a little state can be bought cheaper
than in a big state. This venal idea,
of course, only attaches to Eastern leg
iSlatures.
A MEETING was held in Chicago a
few days ago to organize COLONY to go
TO Oklahoma. One or two, who claimed
to have been there, excited intense en-
thusiasm by glowing descriptions. 1t
