the Atchison Globe

From the Atchison Globe.
 When a woman says that one of her cnildren looks like her husbands family it is her way of admitting that it is not as good looking as the rest.
 Every woman has certain friends who have to be visited just so often to keep them from getting offended Such visits are made with the regularity that the woman bakes bread and are regarded as a great part of her duties. 4.f
 A young girl demands that when the men bow to her they carry their hats two feet from their heads. As the girls grow older an inch and a half satisfies them.
 There is nothing like being in it. An Atehison woman is having a carriage dress made, though she always rides in the street cars; reception dress made, though her only frivolty lies in her attending church socials, and a bath robe made, though she has no bath room in her house and bathes in pint of water in a wash bowl.

to $1.24 more. It Is superior to the native fibre, and if trade conditions were favora- ble, and the entire country open to our merchants the consumption of American cotton would be very large. The consump- tion of American cotton goods would also be largely increased.
 These facts are facts. They come in of- ficial reports. and their value is scarcely to be questioned. They should serve to show southern readers that Luzon at least Is very important to American commercial interests. It would be much better for all connected with the cotton trade, for grow CTS as well as middlemen, if we held the populous Philippine group, thus command ing it's trade, and giving us handsome start in any endeavors our people might make to secure a share of the great trade of the Orient.

That Selma Quarantine.

A correspondents surmise was not solid ly grounded, and Selmas board of health never dreamed. says the peppery Times, of quarantining against this immune city.
 This raises Selma far above par in the estimation of Birmingham people, and all comment upon a suppositional situation is rendered supremely superfuous This apol- ogy will certainly satisfy the reasonable Journal, and we trust 1t also will the cholerio Times.
 Above all, The Age-Herald is glad that all the rest Of the state, including the good ly city on the Alabama river, is to share this year Birmingham's immunity from the fever. The disease seems to be headed westward. It has invaded Arkansas, but it seems disinclined to travel eastward Let us all hope it will not become possessed of a desire to go east in the next ten days; for if it stays within its present bounds for that length of time, we may safely conclude that this state will not again be afflicted by it.

The Value of Advertisinu.

The value of newspaper advertising over all other kinds has found a new illustration in the city of Cleveland. The shrewdest and most successful amusement manager in that city recently came to the conclusion that only, newspaper advertising was val iaable, and the Associated Press recently carried out this report of his new policy:
 Manager Hartz of the Euclid Avenue opera house believes he has demonstrated ,.-e superiority of newspaper advertising over all other forms. Last week he decided to abandon all advertising by means of billboard posters and window hangers and to depend upon the newspapers entirely The only posters shown were those at the entrance to the theater. The result of the experiment was gratifying. Tonight Julia Marlowe began weeks engagement and the house was sold out, it said, before the performance began. Mir HartZ has decided to put up no more posters.
 This is remarkable case of the value of newspaper advertising; for there is scarcely anything in the line of posters that is more attractive than those put out by the theaters. If they have lost all power of attracting the eye, then certainly all other posters have, and advertising of value is confined to the newspapers.
 All testimony is to like effect. The Cin- cinnati Times-Star quotes the words of the most successful business woman in it's city. She says: There is no advertising medium that pays except the newspaper. and paid pays except the news paper, and I paid dearly to find it out Advertising is in- 0ispppe eih1a I xvl,o oP cess have had and am having, and the daily newspaper is sure to bring profitable return"

The New MontqomerY Paper.

The Infant Montgomery Chronicle is at hand, and bright, newsy, all-around newspaper it is It frankly admits that it's chief mission is the making of money, but while 1t is putting silver in it's own pockets it proposes to stand firmly by the Chicago platform, and to do it's level best in build ing up the various interests of the state, and particularly those of its own city. To this end 1t proposes to have homemade opinion on all topics-to present news paper so attractive in every respect that it will perforce be an Eldorado for adver- tsers.
 There is sense as well as just ambition in this programme, and The Age-Herald hopes the Chronicle will live long and prosper-that it will be able on some com- ing annual anniversary to reprint its salu- tory, and point to it's rich and satisfactory fulflment. The world is wide and the tastes of the people various, and, like the omnibus, there is always room in 1t for one

BAD EOk "DULLAnI,S"

From the New York World.
 It begins to look as if MT. McRinley's in vestigators had taken that broad hint from Attorney General Griggs. This member of Mr. McKinley's official family, it will be re- called, denounced as 'buzzards' all who criticised the war department, all who thought that our soldiers were entitled to food, clothing, nursing, and to camps di- rected by sanitary skill.
 There are no "buzzards' in the commit tee. The members vie one with another in hiding the unpleasant, smothering the scan- dalous, encouraging Wheeler optimism and Boynton brazenness. And the prospect is that if any "buzzard' should by any chance get into the small and closely guarded com mittee-room the committee would fall upon him and make short work of him.
 Of course if big 'buzzard'' like Miles or Heber Newton or Dr. Senn should get in, there would be a hard fight. But it is safe. to bet that the committee would get the victory.

The Markets for C0tfOn.

If there is one thing more than another that the south wants 1t is a wider market for cotton-not simply for it's cotton goods, but also for its raw cotton. The whole world has been pretty well exploited In this respect, except the interior of Africa, and the populous Chinese empire. Cotton goods cannot be distributed to the utmost needs of the Africans, until the railroad from Cairo to the Cape Is completed. When 1t is, branches will follow. and the many millions of Central Africa will begin to consume cotton goods. But this Is in the future.
 China offers at present the only promis- ing and considerable field for an extension of the trade In cottons. Even raw cotton is needed there. Not enough is grown, and some of the Chinese people like the fabrics of their short hand-looms. Native cotton sells uniformly in that country at ss to slOS3 per 133 1-3 pounds. American cotton would bring in the interior from 62 cents

SENATOR oUAY's TROUBLE

From the Washington Times.
 The position Senator Quay finds himself
 in is attracting the attention of the poli-
 ticians of both parties. That a United States senator should actually be arrested
 upon criminal charge, whether true or
 false, is most certainly an unusual event. Coming upon the eve of political election, it is calculated to give an impartial ob- server the impression of a cheap political
 trick of his opponents and the evidence that
 has been produced in the case against Quay is hardly of nature to alter this impress sion. Tho senator is accused of having had a guilty knowledge of the use of the state funds on deposit in the Peoples Bank in Philadelphia for speculative purposes. It is alleged that he was a beneficiary in the transaction. The Peoples bank went into 1 liquidation in March last, and the cashier,
 Mr. Hopkins, complicated the situation by
 committing suicide Most of the evidence
 in use against Quay was obtained from let-
 ters and documents left by Hopkins in his
 desk. Quay's own letters to Hopkins, that
 have been published, do not directly impli-
 cate the senator in any dishonest transac-
 tions, but they do reveal very close rela-
 tion existing between Quay and the~cashier OI tHe DdDh
 Probably the most significant and impor- tant bit of evidence that has been produced in court against Quay in this connection is found in two letters addressed to Hopkins
 and the president of the Peoples bank by the state treasurer of Pennsylvania, In these letters he advises the Peoples bank that he will not draw upon the $60O,000 of l state funds upon deposit in the institution in consideration of a loan of $160 900 which
 was to be made to MT. Quay's son, Richard, and in other words, the Peoples bank was given plainly to understand that it could keep indefinitely $60O,0O0 of the states
 money, provided it loaned $1OO,O0O to Senator
 that the loan was made solely upon the
 consideration of the banks keeping the $600,0O0 of the states money
 The loan to Senator Quay's son was re-
 paid after the bank went into liquidation
 and the state recovered it's $600,000, so it
 may not be possible to legally fix any crimi-
 nality upon Senator Quay in that connec-
 tion. The senator, however, is on trial and
 it is said more developments may be looked for Senator Quay is not novice by any means and he has shown in the past that he knows how to strike back when assailed. However, the revelations that have already been made can hardly be of any benefit to the republican party in the Keystone State. Conservative observers say that the defeat of the republican ticket in that state this year is practically assured.

---------- RILEY, THE HOSIER POET

''The Phiiistine" tells of meeting woman at literary reception in London who said she had heard the American "hosier poet'' read at Exeter hall. "E3ow curious that a hosier should become your poet laureate in America" she said '"The Philistine" did not know what she meant, but followed the trail of her chat until she said that her favorite among the "hosier poets" poems was "When the Frost Is On the Pumpkin, '' and then he explained that it was Riley the Hoosier poet" "Oh, you Americans have such peculiar way of pronouncing things" said the woman. "Yes, but MT. Riley is not a hosier, he is" began "the Phiistine." But she cut the explanation short with, "Oh, l see; it is a joke, then. You Americans are so funny. I suppose you think MT. Riley is blue-stocking, and so you call him a hosier.'

white cotton attire upon many of the con- quered, from the edge Of the Sahara south east to the Zambesi The result of this vigorous proselytism has been to increase to an important extent the demand for white eottons from the looms of America and Europe, and particularly for the hon. estly made American cotton cloth which is known as "Merikani' in a large part of Africa.
 Thus the Mohammedan conquests in Africa stimulated and widened the demand for foreign cottons; and they also increased and improved the production of native cloth, leather and other manufactures.

THE DERvIsHEs IN WHITE COTTON

From the New York Sun.
 The Suns letter from London on Monday gave a vivid picture of that wonderful scene at Omdurman, where thousands of the bodies of white-clad dervishes, victims of their unquenchable fanaticism, were strewn where they fell on the wide plain One of the London weellies has an illus tration of this scene showing many acres completely whitened by the long cotton robes of the dead, many of whom still clutch their weapons, while in one stiffened hand the black flag of the Khalifa is held aloft.
 Perhaps a more impressive scene was never witnessed, with the carnage of battle over and the field left to the fallen. From a distance it seemed as though snow had covered the yellow sands before the city.
 These followers of Islam had arrayed themselves in their whitest attire to meet death or to vanquish the invader. Fog more than half century their fellow Moslems, pushing further and further into Africa, converting the blacks to Islam at the point of the sword. have imposed their

Bosses and Primaries.

The Talladega Reporter is disturb ed It sees bossism advancing from the political horizon. Unless" says the News Reporter, Taxpayers interest themselves in politics, go to conventions, assert their rights, and by sheer force of numbers ride down the usurper, they can hope for noth- ing more than slavery to bossism. The people know this and are resolved in their hearts to manage their own affairs The News-Reporter Is unduly agitated. It sniffs danger before it is really in sight. It dreams. But let us assume that it's fears are about to become facts-how best can bossism be averted? How best can tho people manage their own affairs? The people of Georgia and South Carolina would answer these questions with whoop. They would say demand and se- cure primaries, regulated, if need be, by law. In neither Georgia nor South Carolina are the primaries regulated by law, and no power earth could induce the people of the two states to go back to govern ment by court house cliques and state politicians. The people have come to their own in the two states.
 The News-Reporter may be sure that the people will never be able "to manage their own affairs" in the fullest and broadest and deepest sense, unless they first secure the adoption of the primary system. Party rule in the hands of ciaues and rings is not popular or good government. It is govern ment of the many by the few for the bene- fit of the few. The News-Reporter should demand primaries, whether legalized or not in its campaign against bossism, and in behalf of the people. The primary. should be its corner-stone-its whole foun- daton, for that matter.

MAYOR-ELECT WOODWARD

From the Macon (Ga.) News.
 The mayor-elect of Atlanta in now at work in his office as mailing clerk of the Atlanta Journal. The election of MT. James Woodward to the highest office in the gift of the people of Atlanta is re- freshing illustration of the power of the plain people at the ballot box. From it the people of Atlanta and the people of the whole state can draw their own conclu- sions.
 MT. Woodward represents the working men of this country. He is of the people and from the people-a plain working man. proud of his calling and proud of his labor He represents the bone and sinew as well as the brain of the Gate City and his elec- tion will do more to elevate Atlanta in the eyes of the people of the state than any one thing that has been done by that city in the whole course of it's history.
 The election of MT. Woodward will free Atlanta from the charge of snobbery that some of us have been inclined to lay at it's doors. He is, we understand, a man of considerable means, but he has accumu- lated his money by hard work and careful business methods and strict adherence to the laws of honesty, and he has none of the mistaken ,social aspirations that go to make up the unfortunate nouveaux riche and monied aristocracy of the cities of this country. Woodward was elected on his merits. He was elected by a vote of peo- pie tired of the rule of the politicians and of men whose chief claim to popularity and fame was the fact that they could con- trol votes and money. The people of At lanta-the American men of Atlanta-have elected Woodward on his record as an honest working man, patriotic and wise, and free from the obligations of the poli- tician and from the little obligations that olxav c1 fha idcf of dom.
 We do not doubt that MT. Woodward will make Atlanta the best mayor she has had for many a day and that under his admin istration the whole people will receive inn partial treatment and an honest expendi- ture of public monies.
 The News congratulates MT. Woodward and the people of Atlanta
