Pr5ndergaSt was hanged with the hearty

It's little queer that pretty nearly all
of the Washington correspondents and
newspaper men are afflicted with affec-
tions of the eyes that prevent them from
seeing things as they are, and affections of
the ears that prevent them from hearing
straight. We are now solemnly assured
that Senator Call did not pull off his
shoes in the Senate, but only one shoe I;
that Senator Allen was not fighting
drunk, not even comparatively drunk,
and that Senator PETER neither uttered
disloyal sentiments nor has been ostra-
cised for so doing. The senators in ques-
ton themselves make these statements,
hence there is nothing left but to suppose
the newspaper men were all wrong, hav-
ing been misled by their eyes and ears.

a serpent, while two bold cavaliers with
drawn swords rush to her rescue. The
horses of the cavaliers are labeled

are Senators G. X. Davis and John B.
Gordon. The serpent is labeled ''Popu-

its barbed tongue bears the legend "An-

The great railway strike commpletely
overshadowed the coal miners strike

that unfortunate disturbance comes

situation is worse than elsewhere, and
from West Superior, Wis, and Two Har-

Secretary Carlisle is credited with
having said, about the time he entered
the Senate, that he had reached the
hight of his ambition; that he was born
on the wrong side of the Ohio river to
ever hope to be President. Nevertheless,
some good people in Pennsylvania do not
agree with him. At a political meeting
in Pittsburg the other day Mr.. Carlisle
was Endorsed for the democratic presi-
Dental nomination in 1896, and a commit
tee was appointed to raise an emergency
fund and provide such other measures as
might conduce to his nomination.

1t is said that since the tariff bill has
been sent out of the Senate the senators,
with one or two exceptions of men afflicted
with mania for talking, are not disposed
to make speeches about anything, and go

bored by existence. What they need is a

In so far as Georgia is concerned, the
woman in politics is all right. There is
no stronger advocate of pure democracy
among the state press than Miss Editor
Florence b. Williams of the Valdosta
Telescope. She was a thorough-going
Evans man" as long as the general was
in the field; now she Is for the party. And
when it comes to anarchist demonstra-
tions, like those which have shocked Eu-
rope and America, Miss Editor Williams
believes in heroic measures. This is her
remedy: Swing high between heaven
and earth every man who breathes the
gospel Of anarchy, II is either this or
something worse in the future" There's
nothing anemnate about that.
