THE carelessness of exhibitors at the
Worlds fair is causing serious trouble
and delay in arranging the displays
Unless exhibitors observe the instruc
tiors sent out by the managers months
ago, that all cars of exhibits have cards
attached specifying the building for
which the exhibits are intended, the in
stallatiOn of some displays will be de
ferred until June 1. AS it is estimated
that between now and the 1st of May
$500 carloads of exhibits will arrive at
the park, an idea can be formed of the
inconvenience and blockade inevitable
unless they bear explicit shipping orders.
The only safe plan is for exhibitors to
follow to the letter the instructions of
the fair management.

The editor of the Hiawassee Times
makes this apology to his readers for
missing an issue of his paper:
"We intended getting out the reg
ular edition as usual, but when we
started to run it off we found the
fankerfopper was frozen stiff and in
trying to thav it we melted the gild-
erfake, which caused the left hand
guy rope to give way. This of course,
as any one who knows anything
about handpaess will understand,
left the gangplank with only the flip
flap to support it, which also dropped
and broke off the whapperchoke. This
loosened the funking between the
ramrod and the fbsnatcher, which
also caused trouble. There was no
over-indulgence in fresh mountain
cove whisky connected with it, as
some will probably infer"

spirit Of ruinous amusements and of
moral sacrifice is abroad in the world
to day, although it takes other shapes.
Last summer in our country there
occurred a scene of pugilism on
which all Christendom looked down,
for I saw the papers on the orher
side of the Atlantic ocean giving
whole columns Of it. Will some one
tell me in what respect that brutality
of last summer was superior to the
brutality of the Roman Colosseum?
In some respects it was worse, by SO
much as the ninteenth century pre-
tends to be more merciful and decent
than the fifth century. That pugil-
ism is winning admiration in this
country is positively proved by the
fact that years ago such a collision
was reported in a half dozen lines OF
newspaper, if reported at all, and
now it takes the whole side of a
newspaper to tell what TRANSFERRED
between the first blood drawn by one
loafer and the throwing up of the
sponge by the other loafer, and it is
not the newspapers fault, for the
newspapers give only what the PEG
pie want, and when newspapers put
carrion on your table, it is because
you prefer carrion.

Pulaski (Tenn.) Citizen: "Mr.
Cleveland's cabinet thus far is com
posed of men of moderate means who
will need their salaries for their act
ual support. The November election
was an emphatic rebuke to the money
power of the country and a declara-
ton of war against plutocratic infu-
ences. The man of limited finances,
who works for a living is the safest
public servant He knows no sympa-
thy for nor has no relation with the
wealthy and is the least corruptible
of men. The incoming administration
will be one in harmony with the great
majority of American people who
have to labor for all they get and
economic closely for all they save.
Mr.. Cleveland is evidently preparing
to give the country a faithful and
business administration which car
and will be endorsed by all correct
thinking people"

SENATOR'S CHOSEN BY THE
PEOPLE.

The Michigan State Legislature
does not look favorably on consti-
tutional amendment placing the cleo
ton of United States Senators with
the people. 1t is not expected that
legislatures should look favorably on
a system of choosing Senators that
ignores them and trusts the peoples
direct vote. In numerous leglsla-
lures the ability to decide the choice
has been a source of great pecuniary
benefit to individual legislators. So
notorious in some States has been
the scandalous application of money
to procure election to the Senate that
competition for that honor has been
relinquished to the millionaires.-
The ability to buy nomination in
party caucus and to make additional
purchase, if need be, of few floating
votes of opposing parties has contin
ned disgraceful representation of
some States for long terms.
It is urged against the method of
senatorial election by the people,
that parties would still have the nom
nation of the candidates in their
State conventions. This is true, but
the people of the different parties
have the selection of the delegates
to those conventions. But more
than this feature is the fact that the
candidate for Senator is named before
the people are asked to cast their
votes. If either party puts up can
didate whom the people would reject
they have an opportunity to defeat
his election at the polls, Two diff
culties confront an Objectionable can
didate for the Senatorship by the
people when only one exists in secur-
ing an election by the Legislature.
In the first place it would be more
difficult for q monopoly or millionaire
candidate to buy a nomination by a
State convention than to procure a
nomination by legislative caucus.
Inscriptions candidates would be
less likely to undertake the getting
OF such nomination, knowing that
its vicious procurement would be
likely to receive condemnation by the
people ct the election which must
follow. And the people would have
the final settlement of the matter al
the polls
By the method which Congress
will probaly submit to the States fol
approval the choice of Senators il
brought at least one step nearer tt
the people in the States and the op
portunities for purchase of seats il
the Senate are more fully eliminated
