THE CALL SPEAKS FOR ALL.
e----
The dry-winter prophet was joking.
The storm center has shifted to Ken
lucky.
Even the weather seems to have it in for
the railroad.
This is a good time to talk about river
improvements.
Four railway accidents in one week are
too many by four.
One memorial would be best, but three |
are better than none.
Defeat the refunding schemes and fore !
closure viii come of itself.
Now is the time to start an umbrella fac |
tory for the home market.
The fiesta season has good chance to !
open up with Venetian carnivals.
Utah has taken her seat in the Senate |
and begun to make herself at home.
~--
The farmer puts his hand to the pillow, |
but the rain makes him turn back again.
1t is about time for the railroad workers
to get out of politics and attend to bust |
ness.
Even bourbon Democracy might get !
move on If Kelley could make his motor
work.
The monopoly went out of its way to
fight for spoiIs and finds 1t must fight for
its life.
1t is now the turn of the King of Abys-
sinia TO stand up and speak his little ulti- |
matum.
The Weather Bureau should take notice |
There is threatening possibility of over
doing the thing. !
Huntington had better leave his fences
in Washington for awhile and look after
his bridges at home.
The Cubans as well as the Spaniards are
to have new general, and in the game of
war honors are easy. i
1t would be money in the pocket of the
monopoly to discharge few lobbyists and
employ more trackwalkers. !
There is a growing probability that Ken
lucky may prove very good sister to US
on the funding bill proposition.
"
The Senate will declare for silver and
then the goldbugs will have chance to
give Us some more solemn warnings.
Bismarck has opened his mouth long
enough to tell the world it was no hat of
his that the Kaiser has been talking
through.
The rainy evenings will at any rate
serve the purpose of giving man chance
to stay at home and get acquainted with
his family.
as the war ruffle has inclined Eng land
to talk of an alliance with the United
States, it seems that our prodding must
have tickled her.
There is promise that the Senate will
get the silver bill out of the way this week
and be able to bring the emergency tariff
to the front again.
The Goebel bill in the Kentucky Legis-
lature to repeal the Southern Pacific fran
chise may prove to be the little joker that
will euchre the monopoly.
Congress should do nothing whatever in
regard to the debts of the Pacific railroads
but leave the whole matter to the courts
and let the law take its course.
For the first eighteen days of this month
the deficit in the revenues amounted to
,3O6, and still the shortcomings of
Democracy are not fully known.
The consideration of the irrigation law
by the Supreme Court at this time is
hardly seasonable, but it will probably be
so before the court gets through with it.
According TO Senator Hill no New York
man will have chance to get the Presi-
dental nomination from either party this
year. Cleveland seems to have put a hoo
doc not only on his party, but on the
whole State.
The announcement that all the Amer
lean prisoners in the TransvaaI have been
paroled except one emphasizes the i'm
portance OF protecting that one. There |
are some rules to which this country
should allow no exceptions.
1t is worth noting the railroad bosses are
not so eager to have the refunding scheme
taken up at once by CONGRESS as they were
few weeks ago. They have heard the
voice OF the people speaking lately and |

The reported alliance between Russia |
and Turkey may not be altogether true,
but the fact that the Sultan kept the Brit
ish ambassador waiting for an hour in a
