Disappointment of Jerry Simpson.

Disappointment of Jerry Simpson.
The sockless Jerry Simpson, who
received notice from his constit-
uents last November that his SER
vices would be dispensed with on
the following March 4, is not only
an imitation statesman out Of a job,
but he has failed to secure an en-
gagement with any of the establish
ed bureaus for lecturng tour.
This must be bitter pill for Jerry
to swallow. He thought that his
record as Congressional freak
would provide him at least with one
lecturing tour at comfortable
number of dollars per night. The
lecture managers, who can gauge
the public taste pretty accurately,
know that there is no demand for
Mr.. Simpsons oratory. The people
are not disposed 10 pay money to
hear Jerry Simpson lecture any more
than they were to see W. G. P.
Breckenridge attempt to brazen it
out on the platform. He can not
"go back to law practice" which is
the usual way Of describing an ex-
congressman's return to private
life. He has no law practice. He
can 90 back to his home at Medicine
Lodge, Kan, and look after his
farming and stock raising. If he
finds this sort of life too tame, latter
his four years with the wild horses
at Washington, he can 60 back to
the Great Lakes and be a sailor
again, where his 23 years of expert
ence would be useful. Anything

which struck the shackles from the
limbs of the colored race and made
the word liberty have a true mean

The Cash System.

A change is taking place IN the
business method of the country,
which, while slow and gradual, is at
the same time sure, and its consum-
nation will mark new era in bus
mess procedure.
The careful observer has not failed
to note the decline of the credit sys-
TEN, and how the business world is
slowly but surely veering around to a
cash basis. This gradual metamor-
phosis, while not so startling or fast
as to cause much comment, is never
theless a reality. and will be hailed
with delight by a large class Of trades
men who are obliged to give credit
for no other reason than it is the
universal custom. 1t ought to be
greeted with pleasure by the people
themselves who think they are the
beneficiaries of the present system.
But are they? On the same principle
that the big wholesale house gives a
certain per cent. off for cash, the
retail dealer likewise will always sell
little closer to the man or woman
who always pays cash down.
The extent to which the credit
system has heretofore been con-
Quoted has done more harm to the
country at large, the merchants, and
even the customers themselves, than
anything we know of, and its disin-
tegration will herald the dawn of a

of humble, sincere and earnest

Have We a National Anthem?

~ correspondent Oh Jne New L Ork
| World draws the conclusion that if
we have a national air it is not "The
Star Spangled Banner because "a
national air is one which all the
nation knows" This correspon-
dent then discusses the question in
this wise:
But if "The Star Spangled Ban
ner" is not our national air it is a
question whether we have one.
''Hail Columbia is not unsteady
beautiful, and as poem it
will not do. "Yankee DOODLE is
musical but trivial. Mrs. Howe S
"Battle Hymn of the Republic
was displaced by "John Brown S
Body" but this and "Marching
Through Georgia. and the popular
"Dixie" are not national but sec
tiOnal. They are reminders of civil
war and so not acceptable.
Other countries are better off.
England has her Good Saye the
Queen" Germany has ode Yacht
am Rhein. -. When France is re-
public she has ella .Marseillaise. ;"
Italy has her national hymn. Rus
STA and Mexico have beautiful ma
tional hymns.
1t will be noticed that nothing is
said here about DR.. Samuel Francis
Smiths majestic lines begin
ming
MY country, It's ofthee.
Sweet land of liberty,
Ofthee l sing"'
1t cannot be charged that as po-
EN- the words will not pass muster;
that 1t is sectional, or that it is a
reminder of civil war. But it is
true that the tune is not distinctive.
The English use it for their Good
Save the Queen" and we have sim
ply borrowed it. The measure is
the same as Henry Carey's patriotic
song, written early in the eighteenth
century, and beginning
''God save our gracious king
Long live our noble king!
God save the king!"
And which only needs the change
from "king' to "queen' to adapt
it to the sex of any English mon
arch.
However, DR.. Smiths poem is
thoroughly American. Let some
American composer give us a dis
tinctively American air to which it
can be sung.
