Her Thirty-aine Lovers.
From he London Grdpaic.

From the London Graphic
a vessel was voya ying over the sea,
And two-score of passengers on board had she;
Thirty and nine of the muscular sort
And charming young lady the captain

The thirty and nine were all shot through by

But the charming young lady thought them all
rather stupid.
She saw them alone. and she saw them to-

How they looked in a calm and after bad
weather:
There were tall ones and short ones,
Fat, lean. rich and shady,
But all were alike deep IN love with the lady
She could not love them al, so what was to be

fun.

calm,
Just jump in the sea, and it shall do you no

And the first one that follows to rescue your life

The next day was calm. and over she fell.
And thrty-eight passengers followed as Wei;
One stayed where he was, for he could not
swim;
He knew he'd be drowned, which vas gone
goose for him.
The lady was rescued, and the passengers, too,
And they stood in a row as for a review
UninvIting before, they now looked like drowned

From the soles of their feet to the crowns of
their hats.

" Break the Solid eouth."

In brief Interview the other day ex-
Ssnat r Thurman said that the motto of
the Republican party is: Break down this
solid SOUTH and he expressed the opinion
that tee federal election bill would be-
passed. He declared tat the republicans
were ''madly Desperate and that they
could not see that they not only do not
need any part Of the slid south, but that
divided south would be hui fIl to their
party. The solid south makes "A solid north.
he said, and if the south were divided the
north would be divided also. 1t would be
better for the Republican party, he thought,
for the south to remain solid
There Is much truth in what Judge Thur
man said. BY the bloody shirt" policy the
republicans have been able TO keep almost all
the northern states in the republican column.
What they would likely gain in the south
by the election bill, therefore, would be more
than off set By what they would lose in the
north. However, they appear to have set
their minds upon dividing the south, and
the indications now are that they will pass
the election bill with the hope of accom-
plishiDg that object. The certainty that
the enforcement of that bill would be at
tended with serious Disturbances, and would
greatly interfere with the progress of a
great section Of the country, does not seem
to them to be a matter worth considering.
They desire to triumph over the south, and
they don't care what it would cost to crafty
their desire.

Errone,s Standing armies.

The European correspondents manage 10
dish up the rumOr about war IN new style
every week. The talk about impending
host.lities has brought out some interesting
information, however, about the mighty
hosts available for field service in the diff
ferent countries Of Europe in cass Of
trouble. Germany has a field army
/ IF 1850. 700 men and 930, 900
in garrisons, a total of :, go, 700 men ready
for active duty. The field army Of Austria
numbers 10000 men aud her garrison
force $4,000 a total Of 100000. Russia
leads all the powers in numerical strength
Of forces. Her field army consists Of 1870
800 men she has ,lO2. $50 men In her re-
serve army, 40 Ola the frontiers. and
l43,000 Cossacks-a total of 1927, $50.
Italy's standing army is composed Of 10000
men, end the active army of France OF
peace footing is 534, 100 men. In case Of
trouble each of these countries can call into
service about l 800, 900 militia. Russia has
militia force of about 2,O0O, 900, and Aus
tria and Germany have their whole able
bodied population at command, if needed.
Inc support of the vast armies, composed
of men withdrawn from industries and
commerce, is a great. burden to the tax
payers. The burden which the inhabitants
Of the small principalities have to bear,
however. in supporting their standing
armies is still greater. The little state of
Servia, for instance, has an army
Of 124, 700 men, counting actives
and reserves. Bulgaria has 1922
500 men, while wealthy and
powerful Great Britain has only 139, 900
men. The small states, which the powers
are continually seeking to bring under their
control, support large armies to maintain
their rights and independence, and to make
their assistance of consequence if forced in
the event of hostilities to spouse the cause
of one or the other Of the contending pow
ers. Turkey could put in the field 100000
men, and Spain about the same number.
Here are great armed camps, ready at a
moments notice to take the field. They
promise a terrific conflict should an out
break occur. But vast as these armies are
the advsability of further increasing them
is being considered, thus entailing upon the
people an additional tax; yet the cost of
maintaining the largest of these armies an
nually is nor near as much as this govern
ment pays in pensions, and it gets no
service in return.

the money he can utilize, and buys most any

A Chance for Lawyers.

From present indications it looks as if the
next legislature of this state would be
largely composed of farmers, and politicians
who pretend to be farmers, but who do not
amount to much either as politicians or
farmers. 1t will contain few lawyers,
doubtless, each of whom will have a chance
to make brilliant reputation for states
manship, and in most instances, probably on
very small capital They will do all the
talking, and they and the old politicians
disguised as alliancemen will manage in one
way and another to shape legisla ion to suit
themselves. The farmers-that is, the
genuine farmers-will do the voting, and
they will do it conscienttously, but they will
not always find it an easy matter to keep
themselves we'll informed of the purposes of
the lawyers and politicians.
Georgia had a legislature few years ago
which was largely composed CT farmers
The few lawyers who were members of it
succeeded in making for themselves quite
brilliant regulations. Everybody who has
anything to do with organizations of one kind
or another which are controlled by parlia-
mentary rules, knows how kindly the mem
bers Of them feel toward the lawyer men,
Der who opens the way for them out of the
tangles into which they not infrequentiy
get themselves. The same sort of feeling
exists in legislative bodies in which there
are very few lawyers. Therefore lawyers
who want to get into prominence quickly
should try to get themselves elected to the
next legislature. Those who succeed in do
ing So if they have fair amount of abil-
ity, may reasonably expect to be regarded
as the great men of the state before the end

A Forward and Backward stem

Japan took another important step for
ward few days ago. An election was held
there under the new constitution for com
moners to be members of the House of
Peers, which resulted in the choice of
twenty-five farmers, fifteen merchants
and one noble. This is practical
substitution of popular government
for imperial authority, which
has hitherto held despotic sway. Before
the constitution was adopted the mobiles
ruled exclusively, or, rather, they acted as
the emperor's mouthpieces. Thisprogress
has been achieved in Japan in twenty
years.
But while this is a step forward in one
direction the government has taken q step
backward in another. The hatred against
foreigners has been revived. This is largely
due TO the inoulcation of the people with
the doctrines of Confucius, whose precep,s
are henceforth to be the moral ste anchor
of the nation. The people have, therefore,
abandoned their former anxiety for the revi-
sion of existing treaties, which would in
volve the opening up Of the country to the
detested strangers.
The opposition Of the people to the revis-
ion of the treaties is source of embarass-
ment to the government. To the masses
European civilization means merely an
enormous increase in the taxes. They can
not be brought to ths realization that it
would benefit the country, and the teach
ings of Confucius will more than ever iu-
crease their hostility to western clviliza-
ton. Japan, therefore, with all its prog
ress in government, will still be ranked as a
nation of barbarians

Maguire's CHASTITY joke.

A good story is ahoat in Brooklyn about
Patrick Mcguire, the keeper of the morgue, if
the New York Star is net maligning him. Pat
is n strict temperance man. In the neighbor-
hood of the institution for which he cares a
saloon started which soon became a hang
ing out place for Objectionable persons.
Mcguire begged the proprietor of the liquor
store to stop the noises in his place that were
so annoying to the residents in it's neighbor-
hood. AS these appeals proved unavailng, he
determined another plan of crusade. He
has a son, a big, strapping fellow, who is known
to everybody in the vicinity of the morgue as
Maguires assistant in his CHASTITY duties. One
morning, when there was an unusually noisy
crowd in the Objectionable saloon, Patrick
called his son to MIN and ordered him to go to
the water cooler and take the ice from it,
When the lad had obeyed his instructions,
Mcguire said:
New go over to the saloon and press your
way up to the bar, put the ice on the counter
and say to the proprietor: There's so many
bodies in the morgue this morning that this is
all the ice father can spare you
Young Mcguire did as be was told, and the
trick operated splenddly The crowd of drink
ers scattered as if plague stricken. and the
place remained deserted until it was learned
that the ice incident was only one of Msguire's

The Washington Post prints what pur-
ports to be the secret history of the force

As originally drafted, the bill contained
provisions for the use of the Australian
ballot. With these provisions the measure
was widely Endorsed by labor organizations
Such bill was introduced, and would have

The Banner Year for the South.

The Banner Year for the South.
The year 1890 promises to be the banner
year for the south in progress. Her ma
terial advancement recently has been
greater proportionately than that of any
other part Of the United States. The re-
port of the Trddesmdn, published in our
dispatches a few days ago, sums up the
wonderful growth Of her industries for the
last three months, ,443 new enterprises
having been organized in the southern
states against 600 during the corresponding
period last year, and 679 in the correspond
ing period of 1883. These new industries
represent millions of dollars and vast in.
crease in property values.
In 1880, before the south entered on her
present era of prosperity. the assessed value
of the fourteen southern states was S2,9l3,-
436,095. In 1889 it was s4,220. l66, 400. In
1880 the south produced 397, SOL tons of pig
iron, in 1889, ,566, 702 tons. Her output of
coal in 1882 was 8, 5G9, 316 tons, in 1889 it
was 1891 AIS tons. The production of
cotton was 1863, 1916 bales in 1865, in 1883 it
was 6,93S, 200, and for 1890 it is estimated at
7.250,000 bales, which is two-thirds of
the whole cotton crop of the world.
The number of cotton spindles in the south
in 1880 was 667, SD; in 1889, 2,O35, POS. and
during the same period the number of mills
increased from 16l to 355. The increase of
production in grain between 1879 and 1889
was over 220, 900, 900 bushels.
These statistics are proof of Astounding
prosperity, and at this rate of increase in
farm products and all branches of industry
the showing for this year will far exceed
that for any previous year. And the de-
velopment of the south has only begun.
