4 NATIONAL FLOWER.

France has IFS lily, Scotland its thistle,
and other countries, in many instances, have
iavori,e plant. 1t has been suggested that
America should select some one of the floral
products to represent its tastes, nationality
and the like, among which the sunfiower
has received prominent mention as the one
which should be given the preference.
One of the objections urged is, that the
alleged beauty of this plant was discovered
by an English dude, Oscar Wilde. 1t had
been in existence all over this land for
scores Of years and no person had ever dis.
covered that it was anything but yellow
ungainly nuisance. 1t was simply toler.
ated in country places where, as a rule, il
was allowed to rear its top.heayy form in
the vicinity OF the pig-pen.
The sunflower is lubberly humbug that
has been living as hypocrite by having il
understood that it had sufficient intelligence
to know when the sun is shining and en-
ergy to follow its motion across the sky
This is q pretensc for which the sunflower,
without any protest, has been allowed To
exist. 1t is perfectly useless TOR fosd or fod.
der, and has no good raison desre, either in
an artistic or practical sense. Its rickety
head droops from its weight, and in this at
titude the sympathetic Wilde saw some
thing suggestive of neglect and pathetic
resignation which was brooding over a
secret sorrow and he straightway caught it
to his bosom.
1t won't do for the national representa-
tive. II is too meek too useless for this
robust, energetic country. We need some
thing like the cotton plant. 1t represents
cash, wealth, industry and vigor. 1t is
hardy, civilized, has nothing OF the lachry
NOSE droop of the sunfower, and is on
hand for business from early spring to late
autumn. The cotton plant is Enthusiastically
the one which should be selected as the ma.
tiona emblem. 1t is useful, attractive, prac-
tical, and in these qualities is the represen-
tative of the nation.

that the Montreal police occasion

latest, who goes by the name of
Jules Colin, according to his own
story, has an unbeaten record. He
claims to have been sentenced to
forty various terms of imprison-
ment and to have been condemned
to death three times. On the first
occasion he was soldier and for a
disregard Of duty was sentenced to
be hanged. The government inter-
yened and his sentence was changed
to life imprisonment. While in the
penitentiary he saw a chance to be
hanged, and promptly availed him
self of it. Fate again interposed,
and he was sent to New Caledonia.
He again contrived to get into trou-

demned to death. Fate was again

4 POINT FOR THE NOMINATING CoNTEN-
TIONS

A correspondent of 1.-The Binghamton Re
publican" writes to that paper complaining
that Broome County has NOT always welded an
influence in the Assembly proportionate to her
merits. The misfortune is due, he argues,
partly to the vicious 'twO-term theOiy' which
retiIeS Member of Assembly after two years
service, when his usefulness, if he has any, to
his constituency begins The Republican,"
commenting upon the letter, adds its protest
against the rotary system. " The trouble" it
points out, is not with the men Broome
County has sent TO Albany, but it is in the
abOminabe system of rotation. The Office Of
Assemblyman is regarded as an honor to be
passed around to confer the degree of Hon
The people of the county do not seem to realize
that there is the performance of very important
official duties attached to this Office which can
not be ably or even fairly performed except
through the aid of training and influence which
come from long practice and long acquaint-
ance."
BroOme is by no means the only county which
has suffered from the rotary system. As re-
suit of its application many a district has cut
only small figure at Albany when it was en-
titled to cut a large one. On the other hand,
some comparatively insignificant districts which
have been sagacious enough continuously to re-
elect as often as possible legislators Of proved
capacity and trustworthiness have been re-
warded by prominence and weight at the
capital which probably they would not have
achieved if they had had respect to the rotary
system. Senator or Assemblyman who de-
velops no aptitude for law making, or who with
plenty of aptitude shows himself deficient in
rectitude, cannot be retired to private life toe
promptly. But the best interests of the re-
spective districts and Of the public at large de-
mand that good and faithful lawmakers should
