with Carbolineum Avenarius, and
the other left implanted were buried,

An Oleomargarine Colonel.

There are Colonels and ColOnels.
The Missouri Colonel the world knows
and loves. The Kentucky Colonel,
when he is at his best-that is, when
he is setting Colonel Watterson good
example by refraining from profane Ian
guage-is hardly less admirable than
the Missouri variety. Other Colonels
are more or less well known, and until
now all have been held in much higher
esteem than the Indiana or Ohio briga
der But in investigating this branch
of natural history we have discovered
a new variety of Colonel--the Chicago
subgenus of the species, who is no re-
spect superior to the Indiana brigadier.
He is, however, distinctly and emphat-
icaIlv a Colonel. His other name is
Judd and he is one of the ferocious
warriors of the Chicago militia. On a

Explanation Is Needed.

Now that the war furry is over, the
public journals and the country can in
quire into the facts relating to the dis
turbance without even the appearance
of antagonism to the government in a
dispute with a foreign nation, and On
one point explanation is clearly de-
manded from President Harrison, to
relieve himself from plausible accusa-
tions of recklessly attempting to pre-
cipitate q war.
The President takes pains to state
that the note from the Chilian Minister

The Rise OF Gov. Boies.

The New York World, commenting
upon the avowed candidacy of Iowa's
Democratic governor for the presiden-
tial nomination of his party, remarks
that the fact is an evidence that west
ern Democracy is filled with an abiding
faith and animated by heavy pluck.
Perhaps that is so. 1t may, moreover,
be said to be true beyond doubt that
Gov. Boies has done more than any
other man to strengthen his party in
the west, and that he is in Iowa. The
rise of Boies has been rapid, but he has
shown himself to be worthy OF the
prominence given him by his party,
and entirely capable of doing as much
for it as it could do for him. 1t is
suggestive thought that no Republican
in the west enjoys in the Republican
party to-day prominence or favor
equal to tbe eminence OF Gov. Boies in
the Democratic party. The Republican
party is essentially a party dominated
by eastern leaders, and not one of it's
eastern chieftains occupies position
at all approaching that enjoyed by Gov.
Boies with the Democracy of the United
States. s.-Jeferson City Tribune.

With its miseries all untold
Long have I watched her, with wonder

Faithful, and sweet, and strong
Doing the work that the Master sends
Making of sorrow-song.
Questioning never the wisdom that asks
Self-abnegation complete,
Willingly treading the pathway Of

recent occasion he ordered out his reg
ment to do honor to General Miles and
and the officers of his staff. The oc-
casion was ball, and when the pri-
Yates of the militia, with their wives
and sweethearts, began to dance, they
were ordered off the floor out of respect
to the military greatness of Colonel
Judd and General Miles. As the priv
ates had probably .'put up" most Of
the money for the ball, they wanted to
know the reason why, and it was thus
explained to them by the Colonel:
Why, it is out of the question for you
to think of dancing on the same floor
with commissioned officers, and partic-
| ularly with officers of the regular army.
| The regular army officers object to
dancing with non-commissioned officers
and men and would be mortally Offend
ed if it were allowed.

my wife, nor any non-commissioned
officer. The private may be wealthier

Colonel talking this wayp What would

nounced openly that no sovereign Ken
| lucky private should dance on the same
| floor with the wives and daughters of
the Colonels?

other dates more important to be ex-
planned than this.
On Thursday of last week, the DIST
inst, Secretary Blaine cabled to Minis
ter Egan the formal demand this gov
ernment had to make upon Chilli. tits
reasonable to assume that Minister
Egan could have presented that ulti-
matum to the Chilian government not
later than the following day, which
would have been Friday, January %.
Instead of doing so, he cabled to Wash
ington on Saturday, the Esd, that he
had received the dispatch from our
government and would lay it before
the Chilian authorities on the next
day, that is, Sunday, the oath.
He appears actually to have deliver
ed it at some time on Saturday, pre-
sumably late in the day, having held
it from Thursday, and according to a
published dispatch from Santiago on
Sunday, he was notified by Senior Par
EZRA that a formal reply would be made
on the following day, Monday, the 25th.
Promptly on Monday, only Sunday
intervening after the delivery of our
ultimatum, Mr. Egan received the an
swer of the Chilian Government, ten
dering an apology and removing the
last semblance of cause for further
dispute between the two governments.
President Harrison certainly knew
ON Monday, the 25th, when he sent his
warlike message to Congress, that his
ultimatum had reached the Chilian
government only the Saturday night
before, and that an immediate reply
was promised and was probably on its
way. He therefore gave Chill no OPP
portunity to make answer to his ulti-
matum, but recklessly hurled upon
Congress his belligerant message, that
had been in type some days, without
giving any reasonable time whatever
for answer to his demand.
If he rushed his message into Con-
gress on Monday within 48 hours after
his ultimatum had been delivered to
Chill, fearing that Chilli would apollo
gize, as it did, and thus deprive him OF
the opportunity of airing his warlike
views, he was guilty of deliberate at
tempt to close every door that might
open a way to peace. If he had not
such purpose, it must be accepted that
he was utterly ignorant of his respon-
sible duties and incapable of appreciat-
ing the power he possessed for war or
peace.
What explanation can President Har-
rison give to the country and to the
world for this action in the Chilian dis
pute?- Philadelphia Times.

The Public a Cheerful Giver.

The small appropriation $500, ,000)
made by New York for the Worlds
Fair, which passed the Senate last
Thursday, excites unfavorable COM
ment in some quarters. Those people
who believe in taxing one man for the
benefit of another, naturally regard
the amount named as very niggardly.
There is nothing to prevent this num-
erous class from increasing this amount
to any extent they choose by voluntary
contributions; but nothing will content
them except seeing all compelled to
contribute literally. But people with
any sense of justice cannot fail to con-
slider that only a small part Of the in
habitants of New York will attend the
Worlds Fair, and still smaller part
will be benefited by it pecuniarily.
To take money, by force, from all for
the support of such a thing, can hardly
commend itself to anyone's sense OF
fairness. AS long as it is easier to get
money for this or that purpose from
public treasures than from private
the former method will
be pursued. Perhaps more highly
developed sense of justice will eventu-
ally cause change; but the sense Is
not likely to be developed in those who
want the money any sooner than in
the people at large, and how slow the
is there everyone can see.

Over-W orked,

Superintendent Porter, of census
fame, recently appeared before the
House Committee on Appropriations
and described the pitiful conditions OF
the overworked men in his Office, wind
ing up with the usual plea for more
money and more clerks. '.How long
do your people work?" sympathetically
asked committeeman; and the answer
was, ..From nine o'clock until four. y
.sAny time for lunch?" "Yes, of course,
thirty minutes. :" The committeeman
frowned, and ventured to ask if the
superintendent could not accomplish
twenty-three per cent. more work by
making his clerks work eight hours a
day instead of six and C half. But the
superintendent fairly gasped, and all
he could articulate was, ''Do you want
to accomplish a revolutions? The
committeeman might have answered
that the question was simply one of
securing compliance with the statute
which provides that From the first
day of October until the first day of
April in each year all the bureaus, -
ETC., s.shall be open for the transaction
of public business at least eight hours
in each day, and from the first day of
April until the first day of October ten
hours" etc. Anyhow, the superintend-
ent retired, sadder ahd wiser man,
and the probability is that his clerks
will actually be compelled to work no
less than eight hours a day.-To- Day.

The Nebraska Decision.

The decision OF the supreme Court
of the United States in the suit brought
by james E. Boyd to test the title OF
John M. Thayer to the office OF
Governor of Nebraska, is extremely
satisfactory in two respects. First, it
shows that the highest tribunal in the
country can rise above partisan consid-
erations in the determination of a great
political case; and secondly, it puts a
duly elected Democratic Governor into
the place to which he is entitled by
law
There was no doubt of Mr.. Boyd s
election so far as the number of ballots
cast for the respective candidates was
concerned. His title was disputed,
and successfully disputed, in the Ne
braska courts; solely on the ground
that he was not a citizen OF the United
States for two years preceding the time
of the election. His status. depended
upon the question whether or not his
father had been duly naturalized under
the acts of Congress relating to the ad-
mission of Nebraska into the Union;
and the Supreme Court holds that a
collective naturalization of the inhab-
itants of the Territory was effected,
under which the father acquired rights
of citizenship which descended to the
son and made him eligible to the office
of Governor at the last election.
Since tt e controversy arose the Re
publicans have been criticised for rails
ing such a technical point as the objec-
ton that Mr.. Boyd was not citizen.
But the point was by no means merely
technical; it was substantial, just as
was the objection recently taken by
the Democrats in this State to the
eligibility of Mr.. Sherwood, the Hor-
nellsville Park Commissioner, to a seat
in the Legislature. When State
Constitution prescribes certain qualifi-
cations for Office, a disregard of the
organic law in this respect by either
party affords good ground for remon-
STRANGE and for all proper resistance on
the part of the adverse party. So
while we rejoice in the ultimate defeat
of the Nebraska Republicans, we can
not condemn them for making the
contest.
On the other hand, the wall of the
Republican press at the fact that the
decision of the Supreme Court will
cost Nebraska, a good deal of money, is
most amusing. 1t is said that Govern
or Boyd appointed large number of
State officers, who will now demand
and be entitled to receive their pay out
of the State Treasury. Whose fault is
this, we should like to know? The
blame must rest, not on Governor Boyd
and the Democratic officers lawfully
by him, but on the Republic
can who occupied the Office of Governor
without any valid title to it, and by
reason of whose acts the State moneys
have been appropriated to the pay
ment of officers whom he had no right
to appoint.
Whatever may have been the cost of
keeping the Democratic Governor of
Nebraska out of the office to which he
was duly elected, the amount of the bill
should be charged by the people ofthat
State to the account of the Republican
partly. Y. Sun
