The Pot and the Kettle.

The refusal Of three of Boston's prin-
cipal hotels to receive as guest a col
ored bishop of the Methodist Episcopal
church has started a discussion which
extends throughout the length and
breadth of the land. The southern
press seizes upon the incident with
avidity as illustrative Of the alleged
fact that race prejudice is fully as
strong in the North as the South, only
the North is more hypocritical about IT,

undoubtedly be planted this spring

Dunraven's case is in the hands Of
the Prince of Wales. Because of the
jealousy of his mother, the queen, the
prince has never been permitted to
have anything whatever to do with
running the government of Great Bri-
tain, but in many other ways he has
often been tried. and II is admitted
that he is extremely clever In taking
the ravel out of little troubles, that he
is diplomatic and that he knows how
to smooth rough places and reconcile
all sorts Of differences.
The inquiry into the ugly charges
made by Dunraven left that individual
I'm an unenviable plight His accusa-
tions were completely eXploded-he and
his friends were obliged to admit that
he had virtually nothing on which TO
ground his complaints. Last week
word reached this country that Dun
raven had betaken himself to the
Prince of Wales.
OF course, if DunraVen seeks counsel
in that quarter. he must abide by it,
even If he finds ii humiliating to do
that In New York, they have 1t that
Dunraven will make an apology, but
that announcement appears to be pre-

the o&p,esg OF the train held up by rob
bers last might was brought back to In
dependence this morning, Express Mes
sroger Frier told the following story Of
his experience, About i've minutes
after his car was detached from the
train, he heard a rap at the side door
and, thinking it WIS brakeman, he
opened it. a man with shotgun COM
p=llcd him to retreat into the car. while
tEO others followed with revOlvers and
ordered him 10 throw up his hands The
men then pulled him from the car and
asked him if he had any money, He was
too excited to answer. Then they
threw him bodily back into the
car and one of the masked
men climbed in. The man got into the
Car and proceeded to the large safe and
threw down kit of tools. The other
two held guns at Frier's head, while the
third one proceeded cooily to break op n
the safe. Frier told the man who vas
at work on the large safe that it was
useless to blow it open, as there was no
money in it. Ole of the other men who
stood at the door, covering Frier all the
time with a revolver, then said;
"WelI, d--n you, give US the keys for
the small safe"
Frier refused TO do this, and the two
men who had remained on the outside
jumped into the car. They leaped on
t'rer, pinned him 70 the floor, and took
the keys Of the smaller safe away from
him. lie was then thrown up into a
corner aud two shotguns held at his
head. The third man then took the
keys, opened the small safe and took
from it number Of money packages
and after the robbers had secured the
contents Of the su.I safe they again at,
tempted TO open the large one, but
finally abandoned the effort They then
compelled him to climb 0n the front
end Of the car and set the brake. After
the braHe ua4 been set the rubyo 8
drove frier back iuto his car and closed
the door. As soon as the messenger had
been driven into the car, the robbers

HOPE TO STAY THE INRUsH OF THE SILVER TIDE

silver men is to 'vote for the electoral
ticket which will, in my judgment. be
nominated to procure the election OF
Henry NJ. Teller. Mr.. Teller is a platform
in himself. His record as a protectionist
is read with pride by every advocate of the
great principle, and as leader of the BIZ
metallic forces he is the natural and log
ical candidate for President.
II shall present to the State Convention
a resolution instructing the electors NOM
mated by it to vote for Mr.. Teller for
President and for no other man who is not
in favor of the free and unlimited coinage
of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, and also in
structing the present representative in the
FIfty-fourth Congress that in the event
the election should be thrown into the
House of Representatives,, that he shall
vote for Henry M. Teller and no other
man who is not unequivocally in favor of
the free and unlimited coinage of silver at
the ratio of Is to l."
Mr.. Hartman's plan to keep the silver
Rpublicans within the party lines is Wig
orously opposed by Hon. Thomas @. Nfer-
riIl, treasurer of the American Bimetallic
Union. Mr.. Merrill said in a interview W
to-day that it would be the surest way to
throw the election into the House of Rep
resen tatives where 2811 votes would be
cast for gold standard man and 16 for a
bimetallist, and making positive the cleo
tion of a gold man.

men most actively and ..conspicuously in
the fight were Matthews, Boies and Bland.
This was the order in which Mr.. King
named them, and he doubtless believed
that this was the order of their strength,
Matthews being his man.
Such are the comforting delusions of
partisanship; and it is well that such de-
lusions exist, because otherwise there
would be no battles if one side were bereft
of hope.
Matthews of Indiana will certainly
have the logic of the situation" remarked
Mr.. King cheerfully.
There is no doubt that Mr.. King was
right. Whether victorious or defeated
Governor Matthews will have the logic of
the situat ion, whatever the well-sounding
phrase may mean.
Chairman Harrity of the National Com
mittee will be here on Wednesday, and then
