Senator Calls sPants.,
Baltimore American.

One of the best stories of the day is one
that William z. Curtis sends from Florida.
1t is about Senator Call the iaol of the
crackers and the nero of the stocking incl
dent in the United States Senate. Curtis
says Senator Call makes an election tour
through the State and always dresses in
ragged breeches. Reaching an humble
home he will put up for the night. and in
the morning will say: II snagged my pants
on the brush to-day. and I'd be under ever
lasting obligations if your good wife would
mend them for me-. In a day or two he
rips off the patch and plays the same old
game again. THE name of the women in
Florida who have mended Senator Calls
pants is legion, and it is s-.e proudest event
of their lives This story is good enough
to be untrue.

1t has been questionable to many whether
the raids made by the police Of town upon
alleged disorderly houses were Of any real
benefit to the people at large, and the ques-
ton has been discussed from many stand
points in various places, but the raid Of Mon
day morning should be an affirmative answer
sufficient for any doubling Thomases.
The raids had become monotonous The
police entered houses, arrested the occupants,
who were fined and DISCHARGED, and many
people dismissed the matter from their minds
with the conclusion that the raids were
merely district affairs, Others took the
view that being district affairs they
also sayored of discrimination, and
some went SO far a. to intimate that the police
were guilty of persecution. But the lastaid
