WHO SPAKE"?-The Olympian, we
think, is disingenuous in its request
for an explanation Of the joke about
Baalam and his ass. The point is so
plain, that it recalls to memory the
dilemma of Indian Superintendent
Kendall and his famous reply to an
agent under him who was continually
besieging the Office for explanations
OF the Superintendent instructions
At last, Mr.. Kendalps patience became
exhausted and he wrote, al can give
you instructions, but / cannot give you
brains TO understand them" Now
with the question in point: The
Olyn,pian made what we consider,
aside from its vulgarity, an excellent
witicism upon the young lady who
slid down the gang-plank, by stating
that she entered the boat the way
Baalam went through Jerusalem, and
the STANDARD merely remarked that
the young lady if she has ever had
her attention called to the paragraph
was doubtless as spell-bound as Baa.
lam was, on another occasion, when
his long-eared companion "spake'
for him. We do not think we owe an
apology to the Olympiam, for likening
it to the speaker on that occasion, fol
the thought is the result Of natural
association of ideas.

She was here before we were nation.
If she had hostile intentions, which
the Presidents words impute, did she
need to wait for boundary dispute in
distant Venezuela with hybrid race
to assail us or to menace our Republi-
can institutions? The assumption is
absurd. And with it falls the
structure of ponderously patriotic
rhetoric relied upon by the President.
at is a grave blunder to put this
government in the attitude OF threaten.
ing war unless we mean it and are
prepared for it, and can appeal hope.
fully to the sympathies Of the civilized
world in making it. Do these condi-
tons exist? Will any of the Senators
who applauded the Presidents message
affirm that they do? If the conditions

Uneasy Lies the Head"

II anybody expects that Speaker
Reed will WELD the baton OF authority
with the utter disregard for precedent
that characterized his former service
As presiding officer of the House, they
will be disappointed. Washington
dispatches state that he is as mild and
peaceful aS Il lamb, in the exercise of
his prcrogatiye~. and that his party,
aside from the buncombc demonstra.
ton against Bayard, have been quite
willing to refrain from doing anything
that may impair their prestige as the
party in power.
The President in his annual message
has plainly explained the necessity for
legislation to relieve the country from
long season of disaster. He has
shown that some provision must be
made by which $30,000,OOO more reve-
nue. must be provided to meet the ex-
pcnses oi the government. One
would suppose that this would be an
excellent opportunity for Republi-
can Congress to provide for this de-
felt by at once formulating new pro-
tective tariff schedule, but they are
quiet as mice upon this once para
mount object of political contention.
Many OF the new members are like.
wise new in legislative work. They OF
course look up to the Gar for direc-
ton, and he has none to give, except
lay low and wait. The fact is
that Reed has Presidential bee buzz
ing in his ear, and he fears that by
precipitatc action it may be driven
away.
There is proposition submitted to
supply a deficit by tax on whisky
and beer. But there is an active
lobby in attendance to protect either
trust, and if an extra dollar per barrel
is put on beer or if 20 to Is per cent. is
added TO whisky, there will be a howl
from the interest affected. If a tax is
put on both, the Republican party
will lose one of its most faithful and
tried allies when it comes to supply
of the sinews of war"
Congressman Allen, of Mississippi,
says: tom Reed reminds me now
of a niger down in Mississippi who
got tailhold OF q bear and did not
know whether 10 hold on or to let go.
Tom Reed has got a tail-hold OF power
and he is in an equally embarrassing
situation"
So the admonition has gone forth
for the mob in Congress to emulate
the serpent in wisdom and the dove in
those peaceful habits which inspire
confidence and love.
