 A joke of the season-that Texas republican movement which has been going on in the newspapers.
 The democratic managers appear to have withdrawn the boom of "scme good western man" for repairs.
 The third party in the south is progressing at about the same rate of speed as the white republican party in Texas.
 Senator Hill is not very entbu- siastic over the suggestion that he wait until 1896 for the democratic nomination. What man would be'
 The proposed Tammany re-appor- tionment of New York state is such plain steal that it is bound to prove in the end to be boomerang.

 | Col. Henri Watterson has been featuring the public at Washington, for fifty cents per head, and the democratic congressman for nothing and the drinks.
 | Congressman O'Farrells designa- tion of Cleveland as lien and Hill as fox, was probably pleasing to both gentlemen, as it accords with their own estimate of themselves. Kansas isn't living up to the pre- dictions of the calamity howlers. A state that can reduce its mortgaged indebtedness down to very near million dollars a month isn't in a very bad way.

 There is one thing about Editor Gockin's alleged attempt to bribe a New York policeman that is very hard to believe. But perhaps the policeman declined the offered bribe | because it was too small. Five dol lars will not buy a Tammany police man unless he is unusually .,hard ip." There is something illogical about I he position of Senator Palmer. of Illinois. He says in one breath that | Cleveland is the logical candidate" t 'f his party and in the next an e lounces himself a candidate. The enator should take his logic into P xecutive session with his tongue. g Harrison will be a candidate" a Harrison will not be candidate. al Cleveland will be candidate."
