west, the Omaha Bee has of late been
printing a page of interesting clippings
from newspapers published in the trans.
Missouri field. While all Of these stories
are taken from other papers, many of
them without the alteration of a
single word, no credit is given
to the sources whence they are
derived aud the Bee consequently is given
credit for a great deal Of good work which
1t has never done except with the shears.
We have noticed lately a number Of these
stories reprinted in Eastern papers aud
credited TO the Bee The action OF the
Omaha paper in this matter is a species
Of dishonesty which should be frowned
iown by every paper which it lays under
tribute. 10 our opinion the Bee should
be above stealing its northwest stories.

pressing reason why that road should

# was with feelings profoundly stirred
that we read in the Sun Yesterday that
The LEADER was guilty Of libel in assert
inE that the district court had ordered the
absolute forfeiture Of a bond for $500
upon which George W. Hoyt is surety.
The charge, it proceeds to add, is
wholly devoid Of truth, a method OF
argument very frequently rcsorted to BY
our contemporary when 1t can find no
other means OF successfully contradictiuR
a statement Of fact or an argument which
is quite ont Of its reach. The terror
which the announcement Of grounds for a
libel suit naturally created was somewhat
mItiguted by a statement found farther
along 10 the same article. It was decidedly
r~casSuriug and to this effect. We don't
believe that Mr.. Hoyt will sue that paper
for Gbel."
Neither do We On a subject Of this
kind one can we'll afford to be lank. A
libel suit in which there is nothing upon
which % base a charge Of libel is scarcely
an undertaking in which a man with any
p~retensi5us 20 common sense would care
to indulge. Under these circumstances
We are naturally thankful to the Sun, as
the organ Of Mr.. Hoyt, for its expressions
Of Mr. Hoyt's marnanumitY. In these
expressions the Sun itself, with an affec-

have taken the subject more to heart than
even Mr. Hoyt though we hope this is
not due to a little advertisement Of Mr..

HINTS ON DRESSING.

/ Views of Man Who Believes That "the
Apparel oft PrOclaims the Man"

ness talk TO his fifteen-year-old son about
masculine dress one evening lately, writes
the Chicago Journals sidewalk stroller, and
| there were several things said worth re-
membering. Z" / am older than you, my
son." he began, and carry In my old
head a great deal Of experience which
wish could convey to yours for your own
good. and what have learned about how
| to dress successfully is one of them. 1t
took me long time to learn that it is
hard for fop to gain the respect or conf
dence of his fellow-men who are not fops;
but have learned it in time to save myself
and lay down few of the rules Of dress
| for a man who would win in the world. In
the first place, business men like young
men who dress modestly. They don't like
snowy youths. In the next place, the
average political leader and voter has no
use for the dressy citizen who ventures
into politics Very plain and sim
pie clothes are at great premium in
politics. Silk hats, silk stockings and
silk underwear have to be worn very
carefully, if at all, by a political candi-
date. The silk hat will go through all
right on one condition:-provided it is never

wrong way. So important is this matter
of dress and its effect on the masses that l
would lay down for you few simple rules
of dress which if followed will bear me out
in the assertion that in every line of life
worth entering they will prove great aid
TO popularity and success. First, never be
without one good black suit for Sunday,
weddings, receptions and funerals. This
suit when no longer new can be worn for a
day suit in school or business. Second, al
ways own one good, dark-blue suit for busi-
ness, pleasure or general occasions not
noted under the first head. 1t may also be
worn by night, when it will look like a black
business suit This is all in the line Of
suits necessary for man except full
dress or Prince Albert for some extraordin-
ary party, which trust will not come very
often in your case You can in this way al
ways look neat and never gaudy, being care
full never to be guilty of owning a velvet
coat, pair Of patent leather or yellow
shoes, dude cane, fashy nec1ties or loud
jewelry To be a man among men should
be your aim and never an esthetic monde
