And meanwhile-you can make men,
Life isn't play.
He sleeps in all the beds In turn,
'Twould make his wifes face set and
If she could see how things are mussed
Since she went off in placid trust
That things would stay where they were
left
While her dear hubby was bereft.
The bureau drawers are half pulled out,
With shirts and socks. strewn all about
The floor because he tried one day
To find shirt he'd put away.
The parlor hasn't once been swept,
His old cigar-stumps he has Kept
Upon the centre-tabe, where
There CHANGED TO be a small place bare.
Out in the kitchen in pile
Are the dishes gathered. while
Her indolent. though loving spouse,
Has been a bachelor keeping house.
The pile will grow without a doubt
As long as the supply holds out:
Then he'll brace up, when need con-
And wash the whole lot up at once.
The whole house has a musy air
OF stale tobacco: everywhere
Newspapers litter up the hoor-
And I could tell you of much more
Which, If his dear wife knew Of II,
Would make her fall down in III.
Oh. things have gone TO wreck ana Wrack
While she's away,
And you can bet when she comes back
Life won't be play.

The mississippi Case.

We called public attention last week
to an interesting conflict of authority
which seemed TO be about TO arise I'm Mis-
slssippi The State officers, including the
Governor, have issued $4,000 Of special
warrants, which. for some reason, were
made In the similitude of United States
currency. We suppose those special war
rants were expected to pass as currency,
and, therefore. the Mississippi officials
caused them to be made as much like
greenbacks as possible.
AS our telegram of yesterday stated,
a United States commissioner has caused
the State officials to be arrested on the
charge Tin effect OF cOunterfeiting the
national currency. and soon the ques-
lions involved will receive a judicial de-
cision. The lawyer who appears for
Mississippi seems to think that there is
not much in the case. lie says that
TO proceed against State officers under a
law passed by Congress TO protect the
national issues against forgery by evil
disposed persons Is utterly indefensible.
But We are not so sure that this doc
trine Will hold good If Governor Stone
violates a Federal law passed TO protect
the national issues against forgery, it
might be contended that he thereby be.
comes one Of those "evil-disposed per-
sons" 1t would seem that If a State
can lawfully counterfeit national Treasury
notes these will soon cease to be so
popular as they now are.
The United States Supreme Court has
heretofore decided that the act Of Con-
gress levying tax upon the issues of
State banks is not unconstitutional in
other words, the existing law on this SUB
jet is constitutional. The charge or in
dicunent in the Mississippi case reads as
follows:
That on the 18th of June, 1894, the
aforesaid State officers id unlawfully and
fe0niOus Y. at Jackson, Miss. and not
b. direction of any proper officer of the
United States. print photographs, make
and caused to be printed, photographed
and made, and aided in printing photo
graphing and making. n certain photo
grahic print and impress in the likeness
Of the national bank currency Of said
United States
All this was done, says the indictment,
contrary to the form of statute of the
United States in such cases made and
provided and against the peace ana
dignity Of the United States.
The officers indicted were acting as
officers of the State of Mississippi when
they caused these special warrants to be
printed in the similitude of greenbacks
or national currency. But is that fact
important? Can Governor Stone plead
successfully that he was executing law
of Mississippi when he did the acts charged
upon him as illegal or contrary to the
law Of the United States? We have no
expectation that the State officers WIZ
be punished if they obey the orders OF
the United States courts. But we shall
expect them TO be required to obey them.
Governor Stone says he does nov
believe that the law IN question has been
violated in the case under consideration,
lie added that he had high opinion OF
the Judge before whom the case was 10
be tried. All the state officials rely, no
doubt, upon the State TO see that they
come off unharmod.
