IT is noticeable in all leading journal

lT is noticeable in all leading journals
of the day, and even in the weeklies of
the state, what an important part car
toons play in discussions and comments
upon the political situation. The time
was, and not longago, when the ordinary
newspaper was az barren of pictures MS
the average dude of brains. When the
majority of people thought, that pic
lures, of what description it mattered
not, were childish; that they savored too
much of a youthful simplicity. Bnt
those ideas, like many other fogyisms,
have been swept away by the tide of
public opinion. What publications, to-
day, are more eagerly sought and read
than Puck and Judge? And
what parts Of these publications
engage the primary attention?
The editorials? No. The reading mat
ter? No. The cartoons? All, TO- you
have it. And why? Because a we'll ex-
ecuted cartoon conveys infinitely more
to the average mind, and appeals more
strongly to a SO nse of the ridiculous than
the most finely worded discussion. There
is, in nearly all persons, a sense of the
ludicrous, and a qualification of that
sense is pleasing. Therefore, it is an
evident conclusion that that which graf
ifies the sense of the ridiculous or ludic-
rous, or, in other words, that which is
pleasing, will make a deeper impression
than any finely written review of the po-
litical situation, the perusal of which,
eve though it be conceived by a master
mind. is somewhat of q task.

QUITE a sensation was raised last Tues
day by the report that a runaway couple
were in the city seeking to have the matri-
monial knot tied. Upon investigation the
couple were found, and a few of the facts
ascertained. The contracting parties were
from across the line. and had driven a dis
lance of 300 miles. 1t vas a case of paren-
tai interference, and we'll it might have
BEEN, as parties living in the city, who
have been acquainted with the young lady
from childhood, declare that she is only Is
years of age But after some parley Judge
keitfer concluded to take his chances and
pronounce the "twain" as zone flesh" So
the matrimonially inclined couple departed
to seek "Papa's forgiveness and the judge
was a comfortable fee ahead.-Ward Coun-
ty Reporter.

administer a sound spanking to his
erriDg little babies, and then take up a
summer residence in Sioux Falls.

IT has been suid that j. A. Farrah OF
Stark, has removed to Pennsylvania. It
is immaterial as to where the report was
started, but the following from the
Dickinson Press of the 18th inst, may
serve to throw some light upon the
alleged removal: 81. A. Farrah went
down to the Cannon Ball Tuesday to
look after his CATTLE" Now comes the
question. If J. A. Farrah is in Pennsyl-
yania, how in the world did he. go from
Dickinson to the Cannon Ball river last
Tuesday?
