show, to mans illusion given.
Ne,c York; Herald: What does President
Harrison mean by the bungling conduct of the
Behring Sea controversy? Is it his purpose to
force us into war with Great Britain?
BuGaloa Express: Some of our cotem.
poraries are bowling about the danger of a
Behring Sea war as if they really believed that
Johnny (Bull) was at last about to get his gun.
Indianapolis Journal: 1t Is greatly to the
credit of Judge Brown the new member of the
Supreme Court, that most of the Democratic
editors of the country are not acquainted with
him.
Cincinnati Enquirer: There is a woeful
gnashing of teeth over the moribund condition
of that ship subsidy bill. The President
should hasten his proclamation Of war with
England.
Denver Republican,; The railroads are short
of cars to transport the traffic of the country,
and the people are short of dollars to carry on
the necessary business. Let us have more cars
and more dollars soon as possible.
Boston Globe: The Indian Messiah" has
been arrested and found to be ''only harmless
crank after ALL" For harmless crank this
unique specimen of the song and dance man
seems to have got in some pretty harmful
work. however.
New 70 L Herald: Senator Chandler i'm
putting corruption IN politics to a railroad cor
poration in New Hampshire is a truly edifying
spectacle. The coons of the Granite State will
probably next call convention to denounce
chicken stealing.
ha falr hv tt,o
United States Government in the Behring Sea
dispute must meet with the hearty approval of
every patriotic citizen of this country 1t is a
great thing to have an American with big A
at the head of the State Department.
LeadUiUe Herald Democi at: A recent con-
signment of wild animals arrived in New York
recently from the Orient. They were sent into
the interior. New York probably believes it
has a large enough menagerie in the shape of
Tammany Hail. The menagerie is at least ex-
pensive enough.
Omaha World Herald: Owing to the laxity
of South Dakota's divorce laws, envlous States
are attrlbuting the increase of population to
the fact that unhappy married people are
taking refuge within its boundaries. The
Young State now repudiates this unjust charge
by making an effort to have its laws amended.
South Dakota is going right ahead.

for limiting production and maintaining prices.
This is fortunate. No owners of steel rail mills

market, are entitled to whatever advantage
may result from competition,
PHILADELPHIA Enquirer: Labruyere, the
French Anarchist who boasted that he had
helped Padlewski, the murderer, to escape, has
been sent to Jail for 13 months, and Nine.
Duuuercy his accomplice, for two months.
They got OFF easily, but hereafter, when en-
gagged in that kind of business, will probably
keep quiet. Your genuine Anarchist, how
ever, is never happy unless the world knows of
his villainies
Minneapolis Tribune: Democratic papers
are irving to make their readers believe that
New Mexico was refused admission as State
because it is Democratic. In support of this
assertion they cite the fact that its population
is larger than that of Montana. Idaho or
Wyoming. They stuiiousiy ignore the fact
that the bulk of that population is made up of
greasers and halfbreeds. But it is Democratic
all right enough; the character of its popula-
ton naturally makes it so.
Cincinnati Commercial GasetLe: There is a
tendency to apply English names to things. As
yet it has not become very noticeable, but if it
becomes fad, as it may. it will not be long be-
fore the plain, everyday American names for
things will he suppanted by typical English
names. Stores are already SHOPS" weariness
will be called knocked up, you know and
there are now half dozen gentlemen's fur
nIshing stores down town that hang out signs
with '.haberdasher" painted on them. The old
names are good enough.
