dinners and lunches for the rest of his nat
ural life. All things considered, the new
eating cure is of a kind to command i'm
mense popularity among the invalids
whose digestive organs approximate the
imperturbability of cast iron.
But in view of the fact that most of Mr..
Blaine's attacks have been brought on by
untimely indulgence in the viands his ap-
petite Graves, it would not be wise to pred
icate the success of the caterers cure by
feasting, further than the practical Ger.
tainty that it would either kill or cure.

THE RETURN OF THE EDITORS,

Mr.. Charles Emory Smith, of the Phila-
delphia Press, has arrived home from st.
Petersburg with an accompanying intima-
ton that he will not return to his diplo-
matte post Thus, of the three leading
Republican editors nominated to the most
important missions, all are now on their
former field of action. Mr.. Whitelaw
Reid preceded Mr.. Smith in coming back
to this country. Mr.. Murat Halstead did
not leave the editorial field for diplomacy
owing to circumstances beyond his control.
In this abandonment of the functions Of
negotiation we may perceive not that the,
editors do not suit diplomacy, but that
diplomacy does not suit the editors
especially when the sounds of the fray are
beginning to tune up. 1t may be a diver
sion to negotiate reciprocity treaties and
present the travelling American to his fel-
-sovereigns abroad, in off years. But
when the editorial diplomatist smelleth
the Presidential battle afar, the politics of
Europe turn stale and improbable. Moth
ing is left for the editor with the instinct
for organic journalism alive in him than
to wing his way like the eagles to the
prey, before the nominating conventions
have commenced their regurgitations
Therefore the diplomatic editors have
forsworn diplomacy and are buckling on
their harness once more. Let no carper
intimate that they are after something
better, such as Vice Presidency for Mr..
Reid, or Cabinet position for Mr.. Smith.
If there were no such things as offices,
these leaders of the journalistic politicians
could not for the love of the fight and the
honor of their respective organs stay away,
when the lines are set in order for the
FRAY.

ENFORCING SUNDAY LAWS
A New York Opinion That the Opinion of
the Majority Should Rule.

A New York Opinion That the Opinion of
the Majority Should Rule.
New York Evening World.I
If our Sundayand excise laws were in "a.
tional accord with the habits and opinions of
the majority of the people the city would be
spared the spectacle of an angry contest be-
tween the superintendent of Police
and Police Commissioner over
the question Of their enforcement.
The law as it stands is obnox-
ious to popular sentiment. 1t deprives men
of privileges which the majority regard as
rights. 1t seeks naggingly to compel by
secular law the observance of day upon re-
ligious grounds.
To enforce such law is to create more or
less hostility to law, and more rather than
less of secret awbreaking. To leave the
law in force but not enforced brings law
into contempt and robs authority of its
dignity. The right thing to do is to remodel
the law in conformity with the habits and
opinions of the people. That can never be
done while the city is denied the right to
make its own police regulations and to deal
with It's own problems in its own way.

LOUISVILLE, May 7-On June 1 will go into
effect in all the cities on the Louisville and
Nashville system where transfer companies
operate, a new method of checking baggage.
Instead of checks being issued, as now, at
depots, the transfer companies will check
through baggage from residence or hotel in
one city to residence or hotel in other. This
will probably soon be extended to cover all
territory of roads operated in close connec-
tion with or in the interest Of the Louisville

Drinking an Egg With the Sholl On.
The habitues Of downtown cafe were
somewhat astonished when a man walked
up to the bar and gave an order for some
sort Of drink with an egg in it, shell and
all. He didn't look at all out of his mind or
cranky, but as the barkeeper shook the
things together he eyed his customer some
what coldly.
"Of all the fool ideas of drink" said the
barkeeper when the man had gone "that is
the worst since I've been in the business.
He is by no means alone in It. I've seen
several fancy ducks taking their egg with
the shell on. They call it an awe naturale,'
but s'pose it's because nobody but awe
natural-fool will want his drink that way"

THE FORESTRY ASSOCIATION.
The Eleventh Annual Meeting to Be Held
in This City.

The eleventh annual meeting Of the American
Forestry Association will be held at the Depart

beginning NJ 10 O'Clock am. This meeting, it
Is announced, will be principally business
meeting. for the purpose of electing officers for
the ensuing year and for the discussion
Of means TO secure the establishment of the
policy advocated by the association with
regard to the administration OF the public
timber lands The advisability of holding an
exirn meeting during the progress of the
worlds fnir will also be considered. A state
meut issued by the secretary savs: The
avowcd policy of the association. to which it has
bent all iss energies during the last four years.
Is to secure the reservation and rational man.
agement of all public timber lands not fit for
agriculture m permanent forests. This policy
has been IN part successfully insugurated by
the passage of the act of March
3. 1891 comforting the power 10 reserve
upon the President, under which law only six
reservations, aggregatng in round numbers
1900 600 acres. have been 80 far reserved, and
twenty six other locations the docket VI
the general land Office for examination and re-
port ~ 70 the propriety Of their reservation.
While this is gratifying showing that the
work of the association il beginning to yield
tangible results and that the hope for rational
policy as Tar as the public timber lands are
concerned has received the countenarce OF
the present administration for which it will be
famous in the annals of forestry in the future
nevertheless the association believes that the
best interests OF its cause can only be sub
served by the simultaneous Advancement Of the
other part of our avowed policy, namely, the
Inauguration of rational management We
recognize that reservation is a necessary first
step and should be proceeded with, but we also
recognize that reservation alone will not &c
complish much beneficial change Of conditions
unless rights and privileges in the use OF the
natural resources OF the public domain
assured to the resident population under
proper administration of the same.
Our policy does not contemplate closure and
exclusion, but opening for intelligent and
tionsl Use by all WHO equitably entitled to
the same In other words. the reservations
when made must also be administered so that
tb cir legitimate is rendered possible.
Not only must they be protected from fire and
depreciation. but the timber must be cut under
wise methods and supervision, mines must be
opened under proper precaution, and occu-
Iancy, for whatever purpose seems needful
must be regulated; all this in such a manner
to secure the greatest usefulness OF the forest
reserve, without injury to its future. and to OBJ
tain the indirect benefits expected from it in
the preservation Of favorable water and soil
conditions"
