The Washington correspondent of
the Springfield Republican says that
Postmaster General Wannamaker
has declined to make any subscrip-
ton to the republican congressional
campaign fund this year. Why
should he? He bought a cabinet
Office with the subscriptions of other
rich republicans two years ago, and
now the party has nothing else to
sell him that he wants to buyin that
OF IL any other way. What else can
you expect of bargain-counter poll
tics.

The Mississippi convention pro-
posed to defranchise the man who
whipped his wife. This created a
kick. What was to be done with
the woman who whipped her hus-
band? A bright light suggested
give her vote and then make the
punishment the same. And 30 it is
probable that the Mississippi women
will vote because some OF them are
in the habit of whaling their liege
lord.

Ten years hence the South will
be recognized as the garden spot OF

The canvass of General Palmer in
Illinois has made the Republicans Of
that State very uneasy as to the re-
suit of the fall elections. That the
party is badly frightened is apparent
from an editorial in the Chicago
Inter Ocean, which states that there
is great danger of General Palmer
succeeding Senator FarwelI and of
the State being placed in the doubt
full column in the next presidential
election.
