Engiish Justice.
London Latter.


English justice jealousy protects even
the halfpennies in the pockets Of Its citi-
Gems. Two newsboys. who cried Dying
confession OF Mrs. Maybrick" on the
streets this week. have been committed for
obtaining money by false pretenses. Their
explanation that they mistook condition
for confession in the head lines awaited
them nothing
Another striking instance of the miscar-
riage of justice, which has made the
English court Of chancery a crying dis
grace to civilization, went upon record this
week. \ thrifty mechanic married a
young lady two or three years ago who
was ward in chancery. her little fortune
amounting 20 $1,000. The costs of the
court in settling that sum upon her, by the
way, were $500. A few months ago she
became ill OF a pulmonary affection. and
her physician ordered her TO a warmer
climate as the only means OF saving her
life. Her husband was poor and applied
to the court for permission 10 use portion
OF her funds tor the purpose of obeyin z
the doctors orders, The court occupied
six months in considering the matter and
then denied the application. and charged
the dwinding estate $500 for its Judgment
Meantime the poor woman had died, IS
the doctor said she would.

MR.. BENNETT AS A HUMORIST.

Mr.. Nelson Bennett has made his debut
as humorist. He has prepared
lengthy article entitled Bennett to
Harrison" which has been published
exclusively in the Tacoma Ledger
The Ledger. it should be remembered,
is Mr.. Benefits private property. He
does not have to pay for the publication of
his articles in the Ledger. The city OF Ia
coma and Pierce county pay so much for
what they have printed in the Ledger
that the paper can afford to do Mr.. Ben
nett's printing free of charge. That is the
reason that Mr.. Benefits contributions to
the literature of the day appear in the
Ledger exclusively.
Bennett to Harrison" is kind of serio-
comic fantasy. At first one would think
it blank verse, but it is prose. 1t is adj
dressed to the president of the United
States and it deals in a general way with
the Lake Washington canal question:
subject to which Mr.. Bennett has devoted
much thought.
OF course Bennett to Harrison" must
not be taken for real history. It is just
the opposite. That is the joke. 1t is a
through the looking glass kind of
history. White is black, black is
white, truth is falsehood, false
hood is truth, up is down, down is
up, and everything is represented as being
just the opposite of what it really is. Mr..
Bennett has seized the idea of Mr.. Lewis
Carroll, and has developed it with singu-
lar skill.
Of course, nobody will fall into the err
ror of taking Bennett to Harrison" for
real history. Mr.. Bennett has carefully
avoided this possibility by inserting here
and there statements so utterly absurd
that nobody would think for moment of
believing them.
For instance, he says: "For three DAYS
the Republican state convention was one
bedlam of excitement and turmoil by rea-
son of their attempts to force plank III
the platform of the party indorsing this
canal as necessity and proper subject for
United States support" OF course every
body knows that the Republican state
convention met one day and adjourned
sine die on the next after having
been in actual session only about
six hours altogether. Everybody knows
that it was one of the most harmonious
| and enthusiastic conventions ever assem-
bled in the state of Washington. Every
body knows that its work was triumph
antly ratified at the polls.
Mr.. Benefits statement in regard to the
convention indicates the vein of in
veracity which runs through Bennett
| TO Harrison" from the Bennett in
| the headline TO the Bennett in the
| signature. 1t is all joke, and il is we'll
! carried out. We have no doubt that it
| will bring a smile TO the face of Mr.. Hal
| ford as he opens the presidents mail.
| Mr.. Bennett has struck the right vein.
| He should persevere as a humorist, for as
a humorist he is success. AS has been
said. mis- conceptions remind one of Lewis
Carroll. while his style is strikingly similar
10 that OF one who was formerly. even as
| Mr.. Bennett Is now. a distinguished citi-
zen of Tacoma OF course We refer to
George Francis Train.

No Monument for Dickens.
London Letter.

The London county council has re-
solved that one of the deathbed wishes of
Charles Dickens shall be respected. In
his will Dickens expressed an earnest hope
that no statue of him would be erected.
He wrote: II conjure my friends on no
account TO make ME the subject OF any
monument, memorial, or testimonial
whatever. / rest my claims 10 the re-
membrance OF my country upon my pub
lished works, and to the remembrance OF
my friends upon their experience of me-"
When, therefore, an offer from Elwell, an
American sculptor, of statue OF the great
novelist came before the council this week
1t was almost unanimously refused.

Gen. Weaver, who this year represented
practically the same principles, received
i,ool, SOL votes. If 10000 of these votes be
Democrats and Republicans, the Peoples
party would still have about 100, 900 votes,
or an increase of nearly 500 per cent. over
1sSS. But even with this increase in the
Peoples party vote, the total vote shows
only a small gain over four years ago. 1t
is below any increase made in a presiden-
;iai election in thirty years.
The total vote in the past eight presi-
dental elections was as follows:
The Seattle post-intelligencer. [volume] (Seattle, Wash. Terr. [Wash.]) 1888-1914, 1892-12-30

increased over 5000, 900, or an average of
l.l50,000 in each of the seven presiden-
tial elections that have occurred since
that year. But this year it is only
$50. 621, or a little more than half the
average. An increase of 100000 in
the total vote over 1883 would have
been only reasonable growth. but in
stead there is only 40 per cent. of that in
crease. There were undoubtedly nearly
1900. 900 voters in this country on the Sth
of last month. and, as only few thousand
over IL 900. 600 voted. nearly f0O0, 900 must
have been unable or unwilling to vote.

Where Victory Perched.

A fashionably dressed lady was walking
up the north side of Chestnut street to-
ward Tenth. Behind her placidly trotted
small bulldog with black eye. AS the
pair reached Tenth street big tawny St
Bernard dog was coming down toward
Chestnut street following colored man.
The dogs spotted each other Immediately.
The bulldog stood still and the hair could
be seen to slowly rise up on his back, while
the ST. Bernard trotted forward The
owner Of the bulldog had crossed Tenth
street without missing her pet. She turned
to look for him just as the St. Bernard
trotted up. "Oh, ohl' she screamed, that
big, horrid dog will hurt my poor little
pet. Somebody do please take him away"
The feelings of the bulldog were evident
ly hurt by this remark, for he unceremoni
ously made C. spring upon the big St. Der.
nard's throat which was encircled by a
large leather collar. The bulldog fixed
bis fangs in the leather and held to it like
death. It is hard to tell which made the
most noise, the dogs or the lady owner of
the bulldog. She thought surely that her
pet would be killed. In the end the collar
of the St. Bernard had to be taken off and
the bulldog went trotting off with it in his
mouth after his mistress had paid well for
it.-Philadelphia Record.
