STATE LEGISLATURE.

Senate finishes its routine business
and then tackles the separate coach
for colored passengers bill. The bill
passes. This bill is fearful tax upon
railroads. 1t compels the carrying of
an additional coach OH every train,
equal in size and comfort to the reg
ular passenger coaches, and fines
the railway companies from 500 to
81 900 for each trip on which separate
coach is not provided.

1t Will Only Stop Extravaganza and
Waste.
The Express tells its readers that
"the retirement of the present ad-
ministration would mean an inter.
ruption to the progress the city Is
now making"
Does the Express pretend TO tell
its readers that the present city ad-
ministration can run without money,
and if the tax payers refuse to go in
to debt any deeper after seeing that
the last $3.50, 900 voted for 43 miles
of streets has been expended and
only about 2S miles improved.
Had this work been let out to re-
sponsible contractors instead of the
city keeping up an army of lazy Next
can voters to use on election day the
people would have more to show for
their money.
The people in each ward can see for
themselves how much has been done
in thei- several wards:
Ward ], three miles.
2, seven miles
8, five miles.
4, five miles.
'' 5, four and one half mile.
6, six miles.
Z, seven and on half miles.
s, four and one-half miles.
Or 43 miles at 5000 per mile leav-
ing surplus of $50, 900. Where has
the money gone And only about %
miles of work done Is this the system
of public improvement boosted of as
necessary to pertuate by re-electing
Mr.. Callaghan and his band of gentle
legislators?
The people will look too it at the
polls on Monday.

The traditional and time-honored
ceremonies at the launching of vessels
are threatened with innovations. The
regular procedure requires that the
young woman who, when the ship
glides from the ways into the water,
SAYS Il name thee" and so on, shall
thereupon break a bottle of wine over
the bows. This ceremony may inspire
regret among disciples of Neal Dow,
who don't like to see wine in circula-
ton even for chri ening purposes,
and also among the other sort of fel-
lows who are sorry to zee goodliquor
going to waste. The Imperial Princess
of Japan, while catching the point
that something ought to be broken
and its contents liberated on such &C.
casions for metaphorical purposes, at
a recent launch gently struck a fragile
cage againt the steel hull and set free
a pair of doves. And Italy hereafter,
it is said, at the launching of her war
vessels, will return to the old Venetian
symbol of the ring attached to the
PROV of the ship, to celebrate the
marriage of the city with the Adriatic.
Still, it is doubtful whether John
Bull and Uncle Sam would ever find
doves and rings quite as much to their
mind as smashing the bottle of wine.

Nothing of recent occurrence has so
stirred up the indignation of the
quidnunes as discovery that a Chicago
two-year-old baby smokes . pipe with
evident relish. Hands are held up in
holy horror in every circle of moral
mugwumpery at the picture of paren-
tai indulgence thus presented. Car
features have already been made of
this latest Chicago monstrosity with
a dudeen in its mouth, and the few
good people who r doing mission
airy work in that wicked windy
metropolis cry shame" and threaten
to haul the offending parents up with
a judicial round turn. Qf course this
wave of indignation is not inexcus-
able, but it strikes us as simply another
evidence of what a queer world We
live in, or what queer people live in
the world, if you like that better.
Now if that child's parents had trans
to it q disease of some sort, a
consuming appetite for whisky to be
later on, for instance, or an
unconquerable tendency to crime or
.auperism, nobody would have con-
cerned himself about the case at ALL

morslists are wonderfully warped,

FOREIGN MARKETS FOR OUR
r

The beneficial results attending the
success of our Republican Admins.
tratlon in securing a market in Ger
many for u pork products is being
discussed with satisfaction by our
American producers.
1t is estimated that the annual
amount Of u exports of these pro-
ducts will be increased % per cent,
and that they will command better
prices. 1t is expected that their
value will be raised at least l cent a
pound.
Our packers will now begin to turn
out the particular kind and style of
cuts of pork adopted to the German
market. Each country has its favorite
cuts, and, for instance, a ham for
English trade is trimmed differently
from one intended for home consump-
ton. And heavy and steady ship
ments of our pork to Germany will
be made in the very near future.
We are glad 10 say that now it
seems probable that our Republican
Administration will before long also
succeed in openiog to our pork pro-
ducers the additional markets of
Austria Hungary and of France.

Judge ii. C. O'Bryan has a big
heart concealed within his breast.
Until the last term of the Circuit
Court the DEMOCRAT did not hold a
very high opinion of Judge OBryan.
In fact we thought he was out of
place on the Judicial Bench, but when
we heard his remarks i'll ruling in the
Judge Fox case our opinion of the
man turned a complete sumersault.
The people of Perry county sought
to prosecute Judge Fox, who is one
of the ablest iurists in the State, and
inspite of the pleadings of Judge
Foxes representative they wanted TO
force the jurist to leave the bedside
of a child who was i'll and almost
dying. In ruling on q motion made
by Judge Fox's attorney for a con-
tinuance Judge O'Bryan made use of
the following language: 81 will take
the responsibility upon myself and
will stand between the defendant and
the clamor of the public. 1 do not
propose to ruthlessly drag the father
from the bedside of his sick child"
