A subscriber calls to our mind the
objection Of the Advertiser, in it's
issue for Wednesday last, to the use
of the whip in the hands of the
street car drivers. From the tenor
OF the article in question the lash
has evidently strayed to the back of
the editor of the Advertiser. Let
our friend remember that Solomon,
the wisest of all men, said. "a whip
for the horse, bride for the ass,
and rod for the FOOLS back" Con-
cerning the sreet cars the Advertiser
only requires the bride to fulfill the
conditions OF the ancient proverb.

There was something pathetic in
the confession made by the Sage of
Waikaue in his little speech before
the Annexation Club, when he said,
after living in this community for
forty years, that he had but little
influence in the community. Now,
there is nothing out Of the way with
the community, so it must be that
the Sage has proved to be misft.

friends Of the Annexation Club of
the leading part he took in the

that those who laugh last may laugh
longest.
