Sense of Humor.

At breakfast Tennyson was discussed.
Mr.. Jowett denying that what had been
said of Wordsworth. that within the
great man there was a little man" was
untrue also of him, though he had little
things in him, says Longman's Magazine
The want of humor, original or apprecia-
tive, was talked of. Mr.. Jowett saws
Gladstone can make a few Jokes of his
own, but cannot see other peoples. Goul-
bourn, he says, is an instance of a man
who has humor of a kind, but fails to
see the humor of situations In preach
ing once at Rugby Chapel he said, speak
ing of evil existing everywhere, that
"even in the ark there was a Ham,
then, seeing that the boys had caught
the joke, he added that of course meant

Talking of DR.. Arnold, he said that
he was too powerful, too strong a man
for his position--he stamped upon the
boys and crushed them. He was the re-
verse of sympathetic. If you were in great
trouble he would perhaps help you more
than any one else; but it, as some sug-
gested, you were a little happy he would
have no sympathy to spare. Arnold had
said himself that he could never see a

seeing the devil among them

peared in these columns during five years

II costs the Courier Ournal no bushes to
admit that 1t knows more now about sill

that with its increased knowledge. 1t Sin
cerely believes-That the opening of the
minis to the free coinage of silver at the
ratio OF 10 to l, would put the country
on monometallic silver basis, as South
America ana Mexico. That ii would not
increase but diminish the circulating me-
dunn, making money not cheap and plen-

would disarrange all business affairs al

would pay no man out of debt, but de-

A Plain Case of Interference.

The United States circuit court OF APP
peals disposed Of the injunction granted
by the United States circuit court in the
South Carolina registration case in short
order. It held practically that the injunc-
tion was "A plain case OF interference in a
matter in which the court had no turlsdic-
tion. The decision is not pleasing Of course

republicans. Neither Is IL satisfactory to

however. not because II opens the way for
the TilIman faction in South Carolina 10
do pretty much as it pleases in choosing
delegates to the constitutional convention
which meets in August. but because it
checks the tendency Of the federal courts
10 stretch their Jurisdiction and NEEDLE
b with matters with which they have no con-
Germ.
The case that came before the United
States circuit court Of appeals was this:
on the application of an alleged voter
Judge Gom of the United States circuit
court granted an injunction prohibiting
the registrar of one OF the counties of
South Carolina from registering any per-
son on the ground that the registration
law is unconstitutional. An appeal was
taken from this decision TO the United
States circuit court of appeals. This lat
ter court dissolved the injunction and dis
missed the bill on which the injunction
was based. II did not even consider the
question whether the registration law is
unconstitutional. 1t was unnecessary TO
do so. for the reason that there were other
grounds upon which to render a decision.
When Judge Golf granted the injunction
the Morning News expressed the opinion
that he had no. Jurisdiction to restrain a
registrar-of voters and that the tendency
of the federal courts was to exceed their
Jurisdiction. The outcome of this South
Carolina case sustains that opinion
The United States circuit court of ap-
peals points out that in order to carry out
the theory of our government and main
tain our institutions each of the three
branches Of the government must be per-
mitted to act Independently of the other.
The injunction which Judge Golf granted
was an interference with the legislative
branch. Its purpose was not to protect
an individual in his rights but to prevent
the people of a whole county from exercis-
ing a right accorded to them by the legis-
lature. The injunction was indirectly In
the interest of a political faction. If the
courts were to permit themselves to be
used by one party or the other in political
faction fights respect for them would soon
be greatly iessened.
The decision of the United States circuit
court Of appeals is on the right line. 1t
is a wholesome set back to those United
State judges who seem to think they have
jurisdiction of the earth and all of its at
fairs

al Lnst Onnortnnity.

There is still an opportunity for those
who have not done so to register for the
mo fence" election. The books will re-
main open until o'clock this afternoon.
After that hour they will he closed, and
those who have not taken the trouble to
comply with the law will be virtually dis
franchlsed. in so far as the fence election
is concerned.
The Importance and deslrapility of at
tending to the matter Of registering and
afterward of voting in favor of mo fence"
can hardly be overestimated. The inn
provement OF the health of the county and
city. and the development of the re-
sources of the county and the expansion
trade of the city. depend in a very large
degree upon the adoption of this pro-
gressive law. And. beyond this. its adop-
ton meaIfs a great saving to the tax
payers.
These points, and others, however, have
been gone over often enough to make
everybody interested acquainted with
them. 1t remains now only to urge that
all voters act, and act Immediately, upon
the line they must know will be most
beneficial to the public interests of Savan-
nah. Loyalty to the city would demand
it, If nothing else did so.
The last opportunity for registering is
presented to-day. 1t should not be neg
lected.

The BOY Orator of the PIatt.

Ex-Congressman Bryan proclaimed in
congress some time ago that he would
freely lay down his life, if by doing so he
could bring about the free coinage of sill
yer at the ratio of IS to !. Now he is re-
ported as having said in Mississippi a day
or two ago that he would die in his tracks
before he would vote the democratic ticket
again unless the democrats had previously
accepted his money creed. "Billy" talks
lightly about death. He would probably
like to pose before the country as a mar
tyr. But Billy" will never die for free
silver. unless perchance the wind from
his throat should some day blow the top
of his head off dnrihg one of his charac-
teristic speeches. He isn't much of a dom
ocrat, anyway, He will be found in the
populist camp probably, before this cam
paign of education is ended.
