NEVER TOOK THE HINT.

Jackson--Well. what did your wife say to you when you got home so late last night? You know you were afraid she'd scold.
 Fairleigh--My wife's jewel. She didn't scold bit. In fact, she didn't even ask me where had been or what had delayed me; but, late as it was, she sat down at the piano and began to play and sing. I tell you she's one in ten thousand.

The United States WIN Succeed.

Rochester Democrat and Chronicle (Rep.)
We pity the nerveless American
who whimperingly declares that the
United States cannot succeed where
Spain has fallen; who, plating
the results of Spanish oppression, be-
heves that similar results must fol-
low American methods of govern
ment People who thus prophesy
evil have had no part in making this
Nation great. They have trailed and
troubled, while Others have led and
conquered. The faint hearts may
rurmur, but they cannot turn back
the tide of events. The United States
will deal wisely and well with its col
onies and the people thereof 1t will
show them the meaning of enlight-
ened government, of liberty, of fair
field in the struggle of life, of educa-
ton, of industry, of right to enjoy
the fruits Of personal effort.

Why the South Likes Mckinley.
Richmond Times (Dem).

eET
President McKinley's reception
down South was so cordial as to sur
prise himself and his friends 1t does
seem bit strange that Republican
President, the great apostle of the
gold standard and protection, should
have such an ovation in Dixie Land
OF free silver Democracy. But there
is, after all, nothing strange about it.
The South has always admired cour-
age and principle. We are very fond
of our own opinions and we are triAe
bigoted, not to say intolerant, when
we are wrought up, but we respect
and admire a manly man, who has
convictions and the courage to main
tain them, and President Mckinley is
such man. He is Republican, but
he is an honest Republican who con-
scientiously believes in Republican
principle, and the South admires the
man in spite of his politics.

Anti ImperiaIist Sourness.
Springfield Union (Rep).

The anti-imperialists are so self.
opiniouated that they are often very
exasperating. What they say must
be so because they say it, and they,
therefore, present no argument to
substantiate the statements. Much
has been written and said about the
way the American army was used
during the war with Spain. No army
was ever so we'll used before and after
the siege OF Santiago as General Shat
ter's army 1t is true that there were
mistakes and they covered great
hardships and the sacrifice of lite, but
were the mistakes not those of indi-
viduals? All are human and human
ity always makes mistakes. To blame
all our officials, to pronounce the war
a failure and the generals criminals
because plumbers were made is as IL
logical as to condemn the entire fnan
cial system Of the United States be-
cause there are counterfeits. There
are counterfeit bills that the govern.
ment has not been able to detect and
there are counterfeit officials that the
government is trying in every way to
discover.

THE DEMOCRATIC SITUATION
Pictured In Discouraging Light by
a Democratic Newspaper.
nashville American (Dem.).

/
1t is obvious to the most Indifferent
student of politics in these United
States that the Democratic party. in
national sense, is badly disorgan.
ICED and drifting like the derelict at
sea- The tremendous and costly
fight which the party made in 1896,
and which was lost by scratch,
taxed its vitality to the utmost. and
this, followed by the defeats sus-
tanned in the election last month,
have discouraged hundreds Of thous-
auds of the most loyal members.
Ahead these men see nothing but
darkness and repeated defeats, aud
naturally there is growing desire
among them to see something done
which will again make the party q
forceful and dominant factor in shap
ing the policies of the Government.
In November last the Democracy
lost several states which it carried in
1896 and while gains were made il
the House of Representatives, mainl'
from local causes. the party and It's
allies suffered, defeat in the contest foi
the control of so many Legislatures
that the Senate will, on March d.
next, pass into the hands of the Re
publicans for at least six years. In
view of this fact--and it is fact--tb
party's gains in the lower house will
prove of little real value, because a
Republican President, backed up by q
Republican Congress, can and will
conduct the affairs of the Government,
to suit themselves. This means that
by no sort of possibility can the Dem
ocfats carry through any measure
either of financial or administrative,
character, for long time to come
With the Democratic leaders. ma

posed to territorial expansion, and
the country, wisely or unwisely, de-
manding the holding of the new ter.
ritory, the outlook for Democratic
success in any direction is dismal. in
deed. 6e
The great questions growing out OF
the war, along with questions of f.
nance, tariff, etc, will be settled in
accordance with the wishes of the PEG.
pie of this country. despite the advice
or suggestions of anybody. either at
home or abroad. If Mr.. Bryan takes
the contrary view of this state of al
fairs, as he unquestionably does, the
sooner he makes up his mind to stand
aside the better for Democracy. The
conditions which the Union is facing
have to be met in patriotic and
statesmanlike manner, and in accord
ance with public sentiment. If the
present leaders of the party do not
recognize this fact, we may depend
upon it that new leaders will be found.

A Lesson on Kissing.
New York Journal.

1t is all in the point of view. A
Maine artilleryman by the name of
Moore has been fined $500 and SEN
fenced to work on the chain gang for
xty days for attempting to kiss the
wife of prominent citizen.
While here is Hobson standing 600
women in row and giving each Of
them soul stiriing kiss that makes
her heel taps beat tattoo. Nobody
talks of prosecuting Hobson Tor iuoc-
ulating the fair daughters of Chicago
with the bacilli of bravery.
1t must be all in the point Of view.
The man who would a-kissing go
must first be persona grata. The
Maine soldier made the mistake OF
letting his desire outrun his deserts.
On the chain gang he will learn tue
valuable lesson that kissing goes by
favor.

These three states have an estimated
population of a 6oo.o 900, which, ac-
cording to the ratio Of one male of
voting age to each five persons, would
make the aggregate number of males
of voting age about gao, 900. But only
90, 400 votes were cast in all OF them,
or one vote to each ten males of vot-
ing age. These three states elect
twenty members OF Congress. and, with
a total OF 90 400 votes cast. there was
an average of only 4 6l3 votes to each
representative in Congress, There are
single Congressional districts n the
North which polled nearly as many
votes as were cast in all these states.
and there is probably not northern
district which did not cast as many
otes as were polled in any one of
them.
Since 1870 the aggregate vote of
Louisiana, Mississippi ard South Caro-
Ina has fallen of 4ol.826 notwith-
.tanding the increase in population in
hese states. II the white vote be con-
sidered, the poll is still only a traction

Do You Use It?

It's the best thing for the
hair under all circumstances
Just as no man by taking
thought can add an inch to
his stature, so no preparation
can make hair. The utmost
that can be done is to pro-
mote conditions favorable to
growth. This is done by
Ayers Hair Vigor. It re-
moves dandruff, cleanses the
scalp, nourishes the soil In
which the hair grows, and,
just as a desert will blossom
under rain, so bald heads grow
hair, when the roots are nour-
ished. But the roots must be
there. If you wish your hair
to retain its normal color, Of
if you wish to restore the lost
tint of gray or faded hair use

The total vote Of Louieiana at the
election Nov 8 was $4,000 Tor Repre-
.entatives and 32,I7o for Railway
Commissioners Il is needless to say
chat this is the smallest vote ever cast
IN Louisiana, In the state election
.neld in 1896 the total vote cast was
zoo, 354. or seven times what it was
asst month, and even in the Presi-
iential election the total vote was
IoI 90.
The late election gives some idea of
what the vote will be under the new
conditions prevailing in the state in
regard to suffrage and registration.

They Want to See Dewey.
NASHVILLE American DEM.

Let Dewey come home if he can be
spared. Let him receive at first hand
the plaudits of the American people.
Let him know that, from Maine TO
Texas, from Florida to Oregon, the
one sentiment pervading all classes
and conditions Of the people is, Dewey
is an American hero, a man and an
officer who has brought honor to the
race. who has carried the flag to vic
tory, victory unequaled in the an.
nails of history, and who is at the
same time one of the people.

The Spinning Dervishes of Bum
combe.


Under the leadership OF men like
Bailey and Jones, portion of the
Democratic party is blindly opposing
expansion, simply because the major
ity of Republicans support it, With
the patriotic assistance of those clear.
headed Democratic statesmen and
newspapers that deplore the FOLLY of
making the Democracy mere buffer
against progress, the Republican party
is preparing to add to the power and
wealth of the United States; but the
Baileys and the Jones would make of
the Democracy mere futile opposi-
ton. They can only squeak about
Constitution while the country moves
on aud leaves them to howl in the
Dismal Swamp of their own vain i'm
aginations.
If the majority of the so-called
Democratic leaders of today had been
animated by genuine Democratic sen
tirnents, they would never have op.
posed annexation. They have forgot
ten what Democracy is. They can
rant about plutocracy and jump into
the empyrean after 10 to / dollar.
They can preach Populism and Social
ism. They can incite section against
section and stir up one form of wealth
against another They can spout to
the verge of apoplexy about trusts
and corporations They know Bun
comhe thoroughly, but they don't
know the United States.
When the hope and ambition of the
United States were turned by Dewey's
victory to the Philippines and the
development of American commerce
in the Pacific, the Baileys and the
Joneses continued to kick their heels
against the flour barrels in the grocer
les of Buncombe and to chant the
blessedness of free silver and the total
depravity of Rcpublicanism. The
awakening of the American people to
a new and great career produced no
effect upon these spinning dervishes
of Buncombe. They spin and spout
as before. They never try to find out
what the country wants. They find
out what the Republican party wants,
and are happy in opposing it.
The case of the Hon. Alexander
Monroe Dockery, a Democrative Rep
resentative in Congress, from Mis-
souri,, IS typical. His state of mind
or want of mind is exactly that of all
small-bore Democrats. The details Of
his case are given in the Washington
correspondence of the st. Louis Globe
Democrat:
I" i tell you, said Mr. Dockery,
the sober-thinking people of this
country are against taking the Philip
pines. Would you have turned them
back to SPAIN was asked. oh,
Lord, no! We couldn't have done
that; of course not, replied Mr.. Dock
cry. Would you have the American
troops withdrawn entirely and leave
the people to their fate9' No, said
Mr.. Dockery. We must keep naval
base there What will you do with
the rest?' Get rid of en-. Howl

There is craftsmanship for you of

Alger gave out the following statement:
SO far from there being any difference
OF opinion among the merTTbers OF the
cabinet, they are all in hearty accord
with the president. and have been
without a single exception. When he
read TO hen yesterday his message
on the Maine. there was Tot a dissent
ing voice nor a suggestion OF change.
1t commanded the approval OF every
member. How could the president
have said more? He gave congress the
report at one n stated that he had
forwarded il to Spain and Is awaiting
her reply. He must take n step at
a time. It may be said further that
there need be no fear that he will not
take he step. He has not lost a mo-

incident. but the whole to
Spain. The country can we'll afford 10

to Washington in which ne say he
believes that a demonstration may be
precipisated at any ome by an
element made up of certain Americans
