There is this to be said about the
Populists: You cannot knock them
out of time so far that they will
not come up smiling in the next
round. They are again laying
their plans and making their cal
culations on pulling Nugent
through next year, as though they
had not been twice knocked out at
the same little game. AS a party
of the second part the Populists are
not in it nor will they be. There
are but two parties in this country
and that is all that there will
ever be to any extent. 1t is the
same old case Of the counting
couple; two is company, but three
is none.

The Southern Baptist convention
that has just closed its labors did
not take kindly to the innovation
OF paying its board at the hotels
while in session, and the announce
ment is made at the adjournment
that the reversion to the old
method of "boarding round" will
be made at the next assembling
Of that body. The time is coming
and is about due when the men,
bers of the various churches will
not be called upon to run free
hotels during the meetings Of the
several bodies, reserving their
Inequalities for their personal
friends. 1t costs no more in the
end to pay as you go and saves
the independent persons no end Of
annoyance when attending the an
nual conversations Of his church.
Business is business in all things,
church as we'll as non-church, and
will come to be so accepted in
time.

conflict" with that which is so fire.
quently reported as the result Of
a border discussion with pistols.
The number Of men slaughtered in
one Of these so-called sanguinary
BATTLES is not so great as is Occa-
sionally noted in peaceful United
States in an ordinary gun play
among families that follow up a
deadly feud to its legitimate end.
There will be no death of soldiers in
Cuba on both sides so long as the
belligerent armies shoot so careless
ly. These battles Of the squirt, in
which every one is killed and no.
body hurt grow a little monoton
1t would be a relief to hear
of several hundred killed. 1t
would indicate that the revolution
was either dying out or growing
in intensity, and that the end
would come by and by. AS it is a
labor Of inutility, a long drawn out
disappointment to no good end.

There is no discount to date upon
the p%rognostic Of the LIGHT that
Japan would promise everything
and do nothing in the way of the
evacuation Of the southern point
OF ManChuria. The great bulk Of
that province has already been
evacuated or is in process Of being
vacated, but the key to the whole
situation is the point of that Laio
Tung promontory, and Japan is
fortifying that. When Russia dis
possesses Japan Of that stronghold
it will be by hard fighting. 1t is
not Manchuria, nor a greater in
demniSy in money that Japan
seeks, but the control Of the Pc
chilli sea. This is virtually secured
to her so long as she retains her
hold on Laio Tung, and this she
will do to the very last practicable
moment, and will then relinquish
it to:force only. She knows as well
as Russia the advantages that she
has in the retention Of that point,
and is not likely to relinquish it
Japan understands now that she is
destined to come to an open rup,
ture with Russia, sooner or later
for the control Of empire in the
East, and will do nothing to weak,
en- her present advantageous posi-
ton.

one, so long as it will buy the same

They tax every thing in France
except sunlight and air, and these
are not altogether free, as the doors
and windows are now levied upon
to exc out the revenues Of the
country. Notwithstanding this
there is a deficit in the current
revenues Of over ten millions Of
dollars. What the taxpayer will
next find himself compelled to pay
upon is not set forth, but the sug-
gestion is made by an original
party that the squeak in the boots
and the rustic in the silks will
have to pay toll. In this Demo-
cratically governed country they
have not got down to hard pan yet,
but the deficiency is greater. Car
Isle and Grover are thinking Of
taxing the hosting Of the flag so
much a hoist and trusting to the
patriotism Of the country to chip
in at this business and raise the
revenues. 1t is thought that
Meade will not take any hand in
the affair, Herbert having called
his hand.
