Fog Induces s1umber.

''On foggy day said the manager
of a big London restaurant, sit is almost
impossible for US to cope with the de
mand for luncheons and teas, and all

we never see at any other time.
Chow do l account for it? Well, l
can hardly say. 1t might be that the
general miserableness of the city forces
people to unconsciously seek comfort i'll
a harmless little bout of extravaganza or
that the fog drives customers in here i'll
the hope that they might run across
friends who would have otherwise been
encountered outside. But the most feast
BILE explanation seems to be the gas and
electric lights.
Remember that no one ever used to
dine until after the lights were lit. and
even yet there are thousands of poor as
well as rich people who do not take
their most substantial meal until the
evening. Then, too, electric light is such
a vast improvement on gas that nearly
all night workmen who work by cleo
tricity enjoy proverbially good appe-
tjtes All of which, you viii notice,
works around to the same conclusion
that a London fog makes people hungry
because of the extra lights.
another proof is the fact that our
extra customers are almost all men
working in offices, which, on account of
the fog, have been lighted up all day.

M'KINLEY's FIRST YEAR.
Has Been "a Distinct disappointment

Has Been Distinct Disappointment
to the People.
Atlanta Journal, March
McKinley's administration closes
its first full year tomorrow. 1t has
been year which will shed no lustre
upon the Republican party. In >tull
and complete control OF all OF the
departments of he government it is
only recordltg a solemn fact known
to all to say hat he people are dis
appointed and that they have reason
to tie.
The one "achievemeut" Of the adj
minist ration thue tar has been the
passage OF the Dtngiey tariff law, a
Measure conspicuous ny its discrimi-
nations, its unfairness sectionaily
and it's narrowness nationally. 1t is
fair to ass ume that the Republicans
themselves are disappointed IN the
fruits of This measure.
Its apparent result has been to
work an Injury not only to those not
directly interested, but to those Tor
whom it's authors declared it was
especially intended to help-the
wurkiI gmen.
Since the passage OF this hill there
have been disastrous strikes in the

ployed in protected Industries.

more apparent than ever before in

ducers. The producers get no more
in many instances less for their
labor-and the consumers pay more
for the necessities as well as the
luxuries of life The taxes of the
whole people have been raised for the
help OF a few capitalists, and their
benefit, from the very nature OF
things, can only be temporary. Be-
sides this, Germany has retaliated
upon us for the passage of the Ding
ley law by excluding the products of
our farms and factories
The great question on which
Nc kinley rode into office was finance.
1t was the issue of issues in the cam

apart from the TACT that the stand

the length OF Mckinley's term, moth

has been accomplished. The bust
ness interests of the country, how
ever, and the people engaged in
other pursuits, had right to expect
that by this time some steps would
have been taken in the much needed

OF his first year, we end as we began,
by saying that the NJ Kinley admin
