Messrs. Quay and Platt may have their
plans pretty well perfected. but as yet they

is personally in favor OF Mr.. Reed. makes
haste to add that he does not say that Mr.
Reed will be nominated.-Indianapo

STREET DISORDER,

Judge khnball was perfectly right i'll his
opinion delivered yesterday that voluntary
sneezing on the street is disorderly con-
duct in a legal sense. Nothing more disa
greeably boisterous can be imagined than
the act Of giddy young fellow joining in a
chorus of imitation sneezes. or sneezes pro-
volled by the Inhalation OF snuff, or Other
Irritating Substance. Involuntary sternu-
tation is bad enough, even in its mildest
phases, as is shown by the fact that all well
bred persons make effort TO soften the
nuisance us much as possible.
But there are other street abuses which
are vastly more comon and disorderiy than
sneezing, even in its most offensive and
voluntary form, and which never appear 10
excite the attention of such sensitive Off
GERS as that one who "ran in" the objec-
honable sneezer. Every fine day on every
crowded corner, in front of every hotel on
the Avenue, and promenading the streets,
Creatures may be seen who have 10 a greater
or lesser degree the figures of the male
human, who smoke vile tobacco in the form
OF cigar, Cigarette or pipe and chew plug
or iine-cut and cxpectorate promiscuously.
Payemeits are SO bespattered that women
cannot pass without injury to their gowns,
unless they wear boomers.
In many cities, both of America and for
eign countries, such filthy performances
are considered proper for police interfer-
ence, and 1t would seem to be reasonable
that where municipal law prohibits hogs
from running at will in the streets, an en-
barge should be put upon the porcine bipeds
which blow vile odors into the nostrils OF
passers-by and cover the pavements with
nauseating pools wherever they may choose
to lounge.

These Talk of Reed.

Thomas B. Reed will undoubtedly be able
to count a quorum In the House, whether
he be able TO do SO in the convention
or not.-Kansas City Times.
Mr. Reeds election will not be far from
unanimous, which means that compli-
meDtary votes given to Mr.. Crisp will be
smaH.-Cincinnatf Tribune.
Thomas B. Reed is said to be in favor
OF a short session of Congress. Thomas
knows what are the needs OF a Speaker
who is also Presidential candidate.-Chi-
cago Record.
Reed will not have to exert himself to
get the Speakership. He will do his
hustling next summer when he tries to
capture the Presidential noniination.-CIeve-
land News and Herald,

Baltimore, so a late handbook tells us,
is situated on the banks Of a branch of the
Patapsco River; has population Of nearly
500, 900; is noted particularly for its canning
Industries, and, In word, is a hustling
city. The geographers forgot to state that
Baltimore is the home Of those two great
journals, the Herald and the American, and
their respective editors, Col. A. B. Cum

Some Political straws.

Southern Republican Congressman are
not numerous, but they are 10 lie counted
on as good. loyal members OF the q. o. p.
This particular contingent of the I'M
mense Republican majority Of the COM
| ing Congress Is taking not a little inter-
est in the prospects OF material rcCcgni-
ton at the hanos Of the party leaders.
Not only do they oppose the combine
which bios fair 10 give Major Mcdowell

other plans and purposes which they will
be reauy 10 publicly proclaim in due course
OF time.
One of the most important hopes which
the Southern Republicans are oherishing
is the one suggested in the recent dis
patches which mentioned the name Of
Judge Goff, of West Virginia. for second
place on the national ticket of SO.
A number OF the seventeen members from
Southern States are Outspokcn for just
this recognition at the hands OF the party
next year. Not all of them believe that
Judge Goff-ex-General Goff-is the man
10 put forward 1or the Vice-Presidential
nomination. One Southern Republican said
last evening:
The solid South has not been broken
without the persistent effSrts of Repub-
lcan workers, covering period of several
years. Don't imagine that Tennessee, for
example, made such a splendid Republican
showing in 1894 without the hardest kind
of work against the most bitter kind OF op-
position. West Virginia has done splendidiy
in more than one election in late years
Last year North Carolina followed suit
Isn't it about time we had some substantial
recognition? What is the matter with
Henry Clay Evans OF Tennessee far Vice
President? dare say better man for the
place or a stancher Republican statesman
cannot be found anywhere, either North
or SOUTH"

LOUISVILLE LAMPOONS.

Louisville Is passing through another
reform spasm. The police have been raid
ing the gambling dens and stirring up
the poker players. Such attacks, however,
are of short duration. -Jessa1nine Journal.
The Louisville police authorities an
nounce with great flourish through the
newspapers that gambling must stop. We
imagine that such bluff will have an
awful and terrifying effect on the poor
gambler.-Pineville Messenger.
Louisville had two menagerjes last
week. Hagenbeck's wild animals held
forth at Macauley's theater, and the city's
wild and untamed aldermen held forth at
the council chamber: The animals in the
latter aggregation growled more than
those in the first named.-Madisonville
Hustler.
Evidently Louisville authority is not in
accord. The county Judge refuses a local
option election, and the chief Of police
swears there shall be no more gambling.
The great waves Of reform which SO Pc
riodioally pass over Louisville work in .
mysterious way their wonders to perform.
