Some Of the Democratic Congressman who talk
about the traditional policy Of their party as
ore of antagOnism and hostility to territorial
enlargement must have been born yesterday. or
the week before Was not the Louisiana purchase
Democratic transaction, with which Jefferson
had n good deal to do? What were the various
acquisitions Of territory in Florida, 1eXas Oaii'
fornia and the Gadsen Purchase il they were
not Democratic policies? Were not Pierce ana
Buchanan Democratic Presidents when they recon-
mendcd the purchase of Cuba? There came q
time. to be sure. when the ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF the
Union became Democratic principle. for which
a Solid South was willing to take up arms and
plunge the country into war I but long before
Calhonnism bore fruit in the secession harvest
the Democracy was nothing if not an annexation
party.

AssemLlymen Farquhar's Rapid-Transit bill
was the only important measure brought to the
surface in Albany yesterday. Besides limiting
extensions of elevated lines to certain parts OF
the city and removing some OF the restrictions
believed to have bad an influence in preventing
the sale of the underground franchise, it pro-
yides fer new Rapid Transit Commission to
take the place of the present one which has
disappointed public expectation. The weak
point in the Farquhar plan is that Mayor Gil

saving will be effected in the expense account

THE GRIP.

When you see a man coming
down the street, walking as though
he had fifteen pounds of lead in
each shoe, with the corners Of his
mouth drawn down until they meet
under his chin, his nose as red as a
beet, one eye cooked back over his
left shoulder, and the other over his
right shoulder, why, give him the
whole sidewalk, even if you have
to get off in the street, for you can
put it down that he has the grip,
and feels about as mean and sneak
ing as q man ever feels and would
Just as soon eat you as not. There
are only two sensations in the world
that strike an even balance, and
they are the grip and the feelings a
man has when he is Just about to
lie fynched for stealing a horse,
The first symptoms of the grip are
a stirred up concienco and an over
weening desire to whip the
children and break up the furniture,
after which a mans stomach gets
tangled up around the roots of his
tongue and is invaribly turned in
side out, while his head swells up
as big as a -four barrel. At this
stage man always wants to fight
and looks mean and ugly After
this symptom, he gets bad fast, and
imagins that his back bone is tied
up in double bow knot, while his
feet freeze up and his eyes look
like two holes punched in side O.
bacon. When a man has had one
good dose of the grip, he is spoiled
for all time and eternity and should
be shot and put out Of his misery,
as he always has a scared look, like
q man who has seen a ghost and is
expecting to see another.
