IT WOULD HIT HARD.
Bill to Prevent Officers From Appoint
 ing Relatives.

Kansas City, Nov. 21.-A bill to pro- hibit the appointment by officeholders of their relatives to official positions will be introduced a5 che coming ses- sion of the legislature. Should this bill become a law it will prove a bitter pill to the gang which is in the saddle in this county, among whom nepotism is a holy principle, sanctioned by inheri- tance and tradition.
 That public office is a family snap has become an axiom with the office holding gang in Jackson county. and to give up this privilege which the apathy of the people has bestowed would indeed be a blow to the pride and pocket of the gang.
 Among the present county officers who are exercising their nepotic dispo- siJiors are Marshal Chiles, whose son, Hugh, is a deputy, and Judge Wofford, who employs his son, Clarence, as his stenographer

He announced himself as being very indignant at the statements made by Major-General Wesley Merritt.

 He said further: ''I am afraid tho Filipinos will never again submit to the yoke of a colonial government. Rather than live again as slaves they will fight to the bitter end in defense of their rights and freedom"

Paris, Nov. 21.-The Spanish and American peace commissions met in joint session at o'clock this after noon The Americans declared that they must have the entire Philippine archipelago and for a. treaty cession Of the islands the Americans tsndered to Spain $20, ,000 It was further de- clared tha1 it is the purpose Of the United States to maintain in the Phil ippine islands an open door" to the worlds commerce.
 On the terms named t,he Unitsd States proposes a mutual relilquish- ment of all claims for indemnity, na- tional or personal subsequent to the outbreak Of the last Cuban insuTrec- tion. November 2S is fixed as the date on which the Unj-ed States commission desires a definite response to today 5 propositions and all other subjects in issue here.
 It is also declared that the United States desires a tre3ty on the religious freedom of the Caroline islands as agreedNupon be-ween the United States and Spain in 1886, aud also of the ac- quisition of one of the Caroline islands for an American naval station and of cable landing rights at other places in Spanish jurisdiction and q revival of certain Spanish-Amcrican treaties as heretofore in force.

It is probable that either J. II. Hawthorne or Homer B. Mann, the republican members, will introduce the bill. MT. Mann has in hand a bill to cut down the salaries of county officers and it is probable that the anti-nepot- ism feature will be incorporated in the bill

THE BOYCOTT ILLEGAL
Supreme Court Decides
 Against Such Labor Warfare.

Lansing, Mich, Nov. 21.-The su- preme court of Michigan today d6ciar- td the use of the boycott illegal. The case came up over a bCycctt of Jacob Beck & Sons of Detroit by union team sters. The strikers established pick cts about the Beck mills, and isSus d circulars putting boycott on the firm. An injunction was issued against the strikers, and the matter came up in the supreme court for final action. The court said in the decision:
 ''The law protects employers in the right tc employ whom they please, at prices they and their employees can agree upon, and to discharge them at the expiration Of tn 2ir term Of service or for violation of their contract. This right must be maintained, O. personal liberty is a sham. So, also, the labor els have a right to. fix price upon their labor and refuse to work unless that price is obtainsd Singly or in combination, they have this right. They may organize to improve their conditions or secure better wages. They may use p6rsuision to induce men to join their organization, CT re- fuse to work except fer an established wage. They may present their cause to the public in newspapers or circulars in a peaceable way, and with nc at tempts at coercion"
 This is declared to be as far as either party can go. The union is therefore enjoined from picketing the premises and from distributing bcycCSt circulars which are said to embOdy threatening language, eithsr in front of the mill or anywheIa else, as well as from all acts of intimidation or coercion.

French Lack of Common Sense.

Henry d. Sedgwick in the Atlantic.
French literature lacks the saving ele-
ment of common sense. Nothing could be
more brilliant than Victor Hugo in 1880.
His verse flashes like the white plume OF
Navarro. His was the most famous charge
in literature. The courage and brilliancy
of Hermann and Ruy Bias are prodigious,
but they lack common sense. They con-
quer, win deafening applause, bewilder men
with excitement but victory won, they
have not the aptitude for settling down.
The great French literature of the romantic
period did not dig foundations, slap on NOR
tar. or Law arches in the cellars of its house
after the English Next to Victor Hugo.
not counting Goethe, the greatest man %, OF
letters in Europe of this century is Sir
Walter Scott Mark the difference between
him and Hugo. Scott's poetry and novels
have vigorous vitality from his common
sense, and therefore they are ingrained in
the trunk of English literature; the fresh
sap of their romance quickens every root
and adds greenery to every Dough. Victor
Hugo is passionate, imaginative, majestic.
powerful eloquent, demagogical. but he
does not stand the hard test of squaring
with the experience of common men.
