From Atlanta constitutional

ON Atlanta constitutional
I'm feeling very strange oflate;
All is not right fear.
My minds approaching such state
'Twere mild to call It queer.
1t first began with writing verse.
And seeking rhymes for ''dove;''
But now it's daily growing worse
o tell me, is Ii love?
1spend \ fortune In perfumes;
My candy bills immense.
Ibuy the rarest kind of blooms
Regardless of expense.
Ipose before the gla IS and smile
In every sort of way:
turn and bow in every style
Now, is 1t love? say?
To woman's charms so long quite proof,
Smiles, blushes, dimples all,
From each bright snare held aloof,
And viewed my comrades fall.
Who would have dreamed that ever
Would keep female glove,
And blush and kiss it on the sly
tell me, is 1t love?
I do not eat enough to keep
A humming bird alive.
They say babble in my sleep
Such honeyed thoughts hive.
know l stammer when speak;
My hands are in my way.
A certain doorstep makes me weak
Now. Is 1t love? y say!
fused to laugh at stars and moons
As only fit for ''chaff,''
Now go humming old love tunes
And hardly ever laugh.
seek by night q vine-wreathed house,
And watch light above,
Then sneak away just like a mouse
o tell Inc, Is 1t love?
Within my brain queer fancies come,
And problems strange and new;
II one lives on a certain sum,
How much will serve for two?
And then anon I'm darkly sad,
And then I'm wildly gay.
o tell me, am growing mad?
Or Is it love? U say!

Senator Turpis on the Origin of Reciprocity.
st. Louis Globe-Democrati
Senator Turpie, of Indiana, goes back to
1908 for the origin Of the reciprocity idea and
finds it in the treaty of Methuen negotiated
at that time. He contends that all modern
legislation on the subject of reciprocity is
borrowed from this treaty. Which reminds
us once more that there is nothing new un-

Another Jack in the List
Next to the "Jack-the- Hugger, "Jack-
the e-Kisser'' and "Jack-the- Ankle -Grabber"
and other Jacks Of that ilk, the Jack who
leers extensively at women Is one Of the
most incomprehensible specimens of con-
temptible mankind. l don't know but what
he ought to come first in our catalogue Of
contempt. lacking the courage of HIS more
brutal compeers, and having no tangible
goal in sight, his operations are at once more
extensive and indefensible. There is no
rule that can be devised against him. A man
cannot be arrested for q look-canno5 always
be even thumped or reprimanded. He knows
this, and this very immunity from punish
ment makes him the quintessence of what is
mean and despicable. While "Jack-the-
Leerer" often has the external appearance
OF a gentleman, he peers impudently into
women's faces until I would rejoice exceed
ingly if the victim would suddenly slap the
insulter in the face.
A few years ago n lady was annoyed by
man who merely looked at her in this way
stood it for some time, trying to pay no at
tention, then answered by an indignant
look. The loafer merely laughed in her face,
and actually took off his hat and bowed to
her as ii in response to friendly recogni-
tion. The next day she passed down at the
same hour, and there on the same corner
was the same man, who again attempted to
speak to her. There was u big man directly
in the rear of the lady this time, however.
and q moment later the loafer got a punch
in the Jaw that laid him out on the walk,
The big man was Inspector Williams, and
the lady was his wife. Unfortunately, such
condign punishment does not always follow
this offonse.
But this is an aside-what would like to
know is, what satisfaction do men get out Of
this thing7 1t is simply the index OF low,
british nature, insensible to the appeals OF
unprotected womanhood and dead to the
instincts OF common poiiteness and common
manhood.

UNDER the caption "Baldwln's Bosh,"
tho Logsnsport Journal, published IN the
city where the Judge has lived many years,
sets forth the character and peculiarities
of the Judge in the following realistic
sketch:
Judge Baldwin delivered an address before
the Proeress Club at Indianapolis few evenings
ago in which he fully sustsinsd his reputation as
O vagaIist. AS the Journal said some time ago,
the Judge cannot swim. but with his hands tied
TO some stable object, he can make q beautiful
splash. His ideas are not rudders which guido
but paint which makes tho rudders attractive.
He Is simply word artist ready to gorgeously
paint the palace or the peanut stand as he In paid
for Ii or as his whims suggest In his posing as
the friend of the laboring men. Judge Baldwin
makes himself particularly ridiculous. Every
one ein Logansport knows that II Judge Baldwin
had his own way one man In the United States
would own all the property. and the rcst would
pay all the taxes. 1t is hardly necessary to say
that the one mans name would he Baldwin.
Judge Baldwin has yet to perform his frat act of
friendship for the working Glasses, and until he
has done something in this line his professions
will sound very hollow. -

ORGANIZATION INDIsPBNsABLE.

A writer in the New York Tribune
maintains that with full vote the Re-
publicans have a majority in that State,
and that all that is necessary to prove
It is thorough organization that will
bring out full vote. To this end he
urges an enrolment of all the Repub-
Iicans in the State. each one to pay, say,
one dollar year to constitute a party
fund to pay for the services of a perma-
nent chairman and secretary of the
State committee, to be elected annually.
"The chairman continues the writer.
SHOULD be in receipt of a comfortable
salary-large enough to command man
of executive ability and a hustler. He
ought not to be engaged In large busi-
ness of his own. There would be work
enough, II we'll done. to occupy all his
time, and if he doesn't do it, get man
who will. He should be elected by

is entitled to, the pro rata division

appointing his cabinet, staff or district

ing"
Such suggestions are in order in this
State as we'll as in New York. The
result of the last two elections in this
State justifies belief that with full
vote and fair count, by which is meant
q count of oil tho Republican ballots
cast and not the rejection of several
thousands on technicalities, the Repub-
licans would carry the State. But it is
idle to expect a full vote without
thorough organization. This implies.

had in mind, an organization that would

FORTUNATE IN ITs FOES.

1t is very fortunate for the French
republic in this crisis that the two
claimants for control are contemplate
and that one is the foe of the other.
The Bonapartists are as effectual q
check upon the so-caled Legitimists as
the Republicans to either. Both have
been foes to the people of France. The
extravaganza ard corruption. as we'll as
the utter incapacity. of the Bourbons
constitute the history of the period of
its power, while the rule of Napoleon
III left a record of corruption which
eliminated in the iDcapacity which led
to the defeat of the French in the
Franco-German war. Corruption so
honey -combed the affairs of the empire
under Napoleon that when France
found itself in war with Germany, of
the Emperor's seeking, it found itself
with an unequipped army, poorly
armed. ineffectively led. saddled with q
cOmmissaria: that could not furnish ra-
tlons, and with an ordnance bureau
which left armies to fight battles with
out ammunition. Contractors had even
been permitted to palm off upon the
government inferior arms and equip
ments. 1t was the corruption of the
NapoleOnic regime that was chiefly re-
sponsible for the crushing defeat which
France suffered. AS for the sons of
Plon Plon and the Count of Paris, they
are belatcd claimants of d regime that
France rejected, in the first instance, n
hundred years ago, and has re-rejeeted
twice since. The French people, who
have had twenty years of the better
control of the republic. will not go back
to rulers rejected because they were
corrupt and held TO the dogmas of the
sixteenth century. 1t is fortunate for
the republic not only that the two
claiming houses are in disrepute, but
that each is now fighting the other and
that they divide the foes of the repub-
lie. Meantime the President of the re-
public is pursuing vigorous policy
which will restore tranquility and lead
to the punishment of cOrruptionists and
disturbers. if no unforeseen exigency
arises
