FUN WITH FORAKER.

When Foraker gets Brice's senatorial
seat the question. (which party loses?"
will be a brain-wrinkler-St. Louis
Post-Dispatch.
Ex-Gov. Foraker is a young man with
lots of future before him. He cannot
afford to make grave political blunder
at this time.-Chicago Inter-Ocean.
One of the arguments put forth by
the Foraker following in Cincinnati is
! that the Queen City ought to have the
senator. This is not good string to
play upon very long. Inter
Ocean.
In regard TO the re suit i'm Ohio, Sher
man says it was silver; Mckinley says
it was protection, and Foraker says it
was Foraker, that brought it all about
st. Louis Republic.
The FOrakerites in ONO come to the
front with claim that they will vet
elect their mOuntebank leader to rattle
around in the place now filled by Sena-
tor Sherman.-New York World.
As between Sherman and Foraker
for senator, Ohio Republicans can have
but one choice if they regard national
opinion. But as between Brice and
Foraker on the constitutional issue that
Brice is not citizen and resident of
Ohio, the whole party is for Foraker
New York Press.
We never thought we would live to
see the time when we would desire to
see Sherman elected to the United
States senate. But when the alternative
of Foraker is presented, we have nat
ural and irresistible longing for Sher-
an.-Birmingham Age-Herald.
A large majority of the Republican
members of the legislature will vote for
MIR. Foraker for senator. His election
to that office is certain. The utmost
efforts OF newspapers and men outside
the state will have no influence what
ever in changing the result. t.nor will the
most persistent working of the machine
which has been so active during the
campaign in Ohio in carrying on work
favorable to Senator Sherman exert the
slightest result on the final result

JUSTICE VS.. ETHICS.
The Medical Cases Lingering Be-
fore the Executive.

lure bHc kAACCALIVC.
The matter of the proceedings
brought by the state medical board
against Drs. Hutton and Blair was
argued before the board, Gov. Merriam
and Attorney General Clapp yesterday
Judge J. 2. Rea, of Minneapolis, and
NJ. ID. Mum, of st. Paul, appeared for
DR.. Hutton, and Judge ---- for the
board. DR.. Hutton, as has been ex-
planned, has withdrawn from the firm
of Mccoy & Blair, and it is likely that
his license will be undisturbed cOnse-
quently. The matter was taken under
adyisement and the case of Dr.
Blair will come up Thursday. Whether
or not the governor agrees with the
board that DR.. Blair has committed a
shocking breach of professional ethics
because he believes in the value OF ad-
vertising in the daily papers, and i'm
proves the opportunity, the doctor will
continue his practice in the future upon
precisely the same methods as in the
past. If his license is arbitrarily taken
from him he will 90 into the courts of
justice, where professional ethics are
likely TO count for little.

BAVARIANS IRRITATED.
Kaiser Wilhelin's Latest Break Is
Calling to Their Pride.

MUNICH, Nov 6-There is strongly
supported movement among the city
councillors to compel the erasure from
the golden book of the kaiser's auto
graph entry, OH the occasion of his re-
cent visit, to the effect that 1.-THE will of
the king is the supreme law" 1t is
argued that the statement is not
true OF the king of Bavaria,
who is constitutional monarch,
and that as it was made as ali alluSiOn
to the kaiser himself. it was an insult to
the people of Bavaria. The feeling on
the subject runs very high in Munich,
and it is thought that. ii the authorities
DO not themselves expunge the obnOx-
ious entry. it may be done against their
wishes. The incident has aroused up
all the Bavarian jealousy of Prussia.
and it is openly charged that the kaiser
is endeavoring to entrench upon the
liberties of the Bayarian people.

THE DAY IN THE HOTELS.
An Extra Bill of Fare and Lunch to Be
Served in All the Local Houses.

An Extra Bill of Fare and Lunch to Be
Served in All the Local Houses.
There will be plenty to eat and good cheer
in the hotels to-day. All of the houses
promise an extra bill of fare, and the man
who can't be satisfied must have an incur
able case of indigestion. The latter class,
by the way, are not wanted. At the
Duquesne Mr. Witherow will follow his
usual custom, and serve free lunch in the
barroom fit for the gods. On the menu are
several roast pigs, turkey and all the deli
cacies of the season. For dinner only the
regular bill of fare will be served. The
same plan will be carried out in the other
European hotels.
The late lamented Ed. Bean, of the
Anderson, delighted in furnishing each
guest on the November holiday with a
pretty menu card, but Captain McKinnie is
opposed to any show. He believes in put
ting the best on the table and allowing the
patrons to Judge of the hotels cuisine
through the stomach and not by the eye.
The regular lunch will be given in the bar
room.
The Monongahela, Seventh Avenue and
Central hotels will also furnish an extra
dinner, and these are the only houses that
will have fancy menu card. The Monon-
gahela will have very fine one, and it will
be something appropriate to the day. The
guests of the st. Charles need not go
hungry, and they will find many tempting
viands on the table.
The hotels yesterday resembled the aver
age Sunday. The arrivals were slim, and
the drummers were going home to be with
their families The football game in New
York attracted a great many people, and
the travel on the roads was heavy.
