know this, and with those little arts in
which they are so thoroughly practiced,
will seek to push their schemes through
without detection. Every person who
has had legislative experience can bear
testimony to this fact, and we now refer
to it simply to call the attention of the
legislators to the necessity for critical
inspection of every measure that comes
up for final action during the week.

The Chinaman IAN PHoN LEE, who writes
i'll the North American Review in defense of

His points are not easy to meet on the line of
impartial observation. He says that his coun-
trymen would be pleased to become citizens
if allowed-they don't get drunk, do very lit
tie stealing, put up with insult and oppres-
sion, as American Christians would not and
would be glad to get better wages if they
could. He makes an ingenious point in this
connection, i'll speaking of the machines that
displace labor and live on nothing, which is
little less than the Chinese can worry along
OH. The machines do the work of millions
OF men, and no fault is found. But there are
strong objections to the Chinese in their So
cial life and characteristics. Their civiliza-
ton is as antagonistic to that of America as
their country is in geographical location.

TOPICAL TALK.

This is St. Paul's first experience in strikes.
That is something no other city of equal size
and business can say. 1t is remarkable, too,
what little excitement prevails. Beyond an
occasional grumhle from some unfortunate
person who lives long ways out, and re-
mote from the cable line, the people of the
city are going about their business as if
nothing had ever happened. have been in
number of other cities during strike, and
L never failed to see crowds congregate on
the street corners TO discuss the situation.
But there is nothing of that kind here Men
pass or repass on the street without an aliu-
sion to the strike; ladies are around shop ping
as usual; business of every kind, except
street railway transportation. is moving
on smoothly; and actually, stranger visit
ing the city would find no evidence of dis
turbance of any kind. To my mind the
scene speaks volumes for the conservative
spirit of our population.

At the late annual session Of the American
Florists association the subject of selecting
national flower was discussed, and quite
diversity of opinion developed respecting
the flowers most typical of America. A ma
jority expressed preference for the apple
blossom because of its fragrance but it's
ephemeral quality was urged as an objection.
The daisy, which is indigenous in almost
every soil, stood next in popularity. The
golden rod was suggested, because of late
years it has been greatly admired by the lit
craft. The pansy, Mrs. CLEvELAND's favor
lite flower had its advocates, while ew
favored the sweet violet. 1t is time that we
were naming our national flower, for
amongst nearly all civilized nations flowers
have representative value, and the infu
ence they have had upon civilization is in
calculable. The shamrock of Ireland the
lily of France, the thistle of Scotland and
the rose of England have all played impor
tant parts in the worlds history. If the Sc
lection of our national flower were left to me
would choose the clover bI ossom, because
it is everywhere, there is nothing sweeter
and it is symbolical of thrift and good luck

DRAMATIC DRIFT.

The poverty of the American stage is ex-
emplified in the fact that there is no one who
can play liking Lear and yet there is not a
more catchy character in all of Shake
speare's creations. If people can be drawn to
theaters through announcement of tragic
plays, Lear would draw them. 1t is a pict-
IRE of a storm-tossed life that appeals to the
sympathy of the thousands of storm-tossed
lives about us. And yet there is no living
actor vino has confidence in his ability to
give correct portrayal of the character. Not
even Edwin Booth in the days before he be-
came Barrettized could essay the role AS a
Hamlet, an Iago, or Richelleu. Booth has
no competitor. We have Keene in erich

''Yirginius,' Downing in ''Spartacus," but
the great American tragedian is yet to come
who can take up the mantle of the elder
Booth and give the stage another Lear.

One of the most popular changes

marriage. The intending bridegroom
sent his future wife such symbol

On the wedding day there was always
the show of resistance on the part of
the bride so common everywhere; the
bride would resist to the uttermost

LOUIsIANA's COUPON CASES.
It Looks as II Maj. Burke Knew Of the
Matter for Some Months.

Ex-Cashier Stoddart of New Orleans has pro-
duced a copy of letter written by him Janu-
airy 10, 1888, from Baton Rouge, to State Treas
urer Burke, in which he stated that thirty cou-
pons Of the supposedly destroyed state bonds
had been presented for payment. The num-
beers Of the coupons were given in the letter.
Mr. Stoddart says that Maj. Burke telephoned
him next day from New Orleans: "Have seen
the party and have arranged" Mr.. Stoddart
showed the coupons to Receiving Clerk Camp
bell, who resigned, being unwilling to remain
connected with the treasurer's Office in view of
such irregularity. Maj. Burke prevailed on
him to remain. Mr.. Stoddart did not resign,
as his term was nearly out.
If Mr., Stoddart's statement is accurate it in
dictates a knowledge of the coupon matter on
Maj. Burke's part six months before he retired
from the Office of treasurer.
Mr.. Stoddart also produces a telegram,
dated New Orleans, August q, 1886, signed
Cockerton, reading: COLLECTED 1910 and de-
posted it to the general account. Balance un-
stamped and bank refuses to cash." Mr.. Stod-
dart explains this as follows: Cockerton was
Maj. Burke's business manager in New Orleans
Burke had gone to Honduras, leaving with
Stoddart a sealed package of coupons, telling
him to send it to Cockerton whenever the Office
needed money. Stoddart forwarded the pack
age and received the foregoing telegram. Soon
after Burke's return the rejected coupons came
back from Cockerton. Their face value was
S2,254. Their numbers corresponded exactly
with the list of fraudulent coupons recentlT
published. Stoddart says he sent the rejected
coupons over to Burke. That was the last he
heard of them
