What Is to "TiddIy Wink"

What is to "tiddly wink?' We do not
know; but whatever it is, at any rate
the supreme court of Victoria has de-
cided that it is not hbelous. A colonial
newspaper charged a shire councillor
with having "tiddly winked the shire
funds" Litigation ensued, and the mat
ter was carried on appeal to the highest
tribunal in the colony, with the afore-
said results Some fifty English die
tionaries were brought into court to en-
able the judges to ascertain what was
the real meaning Of the word, but "tid-
dly winldng" was not discoverable in
any of them. So they accepted the def
milton of the witness that the phrase
conveyed to his mind the idea of using
little lodges to obtain ones own ends.
An imputation of that sort the court de-
cided was not necessarily ibelous.-

Darlington Phelps, chairman of the
state central committee for Minnesota,
according to The Pioneer Press. lis said
to be bright young man, and has been
for the past few weeks practical
farmer. Before that he was banker at
Morris. and not long ago was president
of the Stevens County Farmers ALI
ance. He was turned out of the county
presidency of the Alliance at the insti-
cation of President R. j. Hall, who did
not deem it proper that the Alliance in
that county should be ruled by a wicked
banker. Mr.. Phelps then retired to
farm he owned, severed his connection
with the bank and became granger
pure and simple. This change of heart
on the part of Mr.. Phelps has met with
a speedy reward, and he has been chosen
chairman of the state central committee
of the Alliance. 1t is believed by prom
inent members of the Alliance that Mr..
Phelps experience as q banker will prove
OF immense service to the Alliance in
the matter of raising and handling cam
paign funds"
