The Olympian is using his accidency
for a scare.crow to brighten robbins
from the cherry-trce; or, in other
words, voters from supporting the
fusion ticket. Oly's labors, however
in the past have not been SO success
full as to paralyze its opponents with
its prestige of victory.

Oily thinks that it was the executive
grasp which throttled Cline's aspira.
tons for the Legislature in the con-
vention Saturday. AS usual, he is
mistaken. Some of his accidency's
most bitter enemies contributed to
that result, from other causes, just as
Mr.. Cline directed his followers to
vote for n known friend of the fraud
in the executive chair. There are
more things, Oily, under heaven than
are dreamt of in thy philosophy.

THE reason that the Spaniards are
so slow in evacuating Havana is that

THE speech of Mr.. Cushman, of Ia
coma, Republican candidate for Con-
gress, in the theater, Wednesday
night, came too close to the brilliant
effort OF Mr.. Lewis, on the 18th, to find
very appreciative audience. The
musical cadences OF the latter's mag
nificent periods had scarcely ceased to
reverberate upon the ear and no COM
monplace utterances of campaign ora
tors can please as long as that men,
DRY fingers. Mr.. Cushman's speech
was one OF negatives, what the lawyers
would call a general denial" of every
material allegation in the Indictment
of the Hanna administration presented
by Mr. Lewis, totally ignoring the
proof presented and the superior adj.
vantages possessed by our Representa-
tive for obtaining a correct insight
into the acts and motives which con.
troll them. 1t required no further evil
dence than the temper manifested by
the audience in leaving the theater to
justify the belief that the speech was
wholly without results and the demon
stration an absolute failure.

page to the ovation extended Repre-
sentative Jas. Hamilton Lewis at Me-
tropolitan Temple, last Saturday even
ing, when he addressed one of the larg-
est assemblies ever held in San Fran
cisco. That journal alludes to him as
:" the Washington Congressman who
made a national reputation for HIM
self in the brief period of one term of
Congress" And still the "small fry"
politicians hereabouts decry his ability
and challenge his veracity on almost
every statement he makes They
only render themselves ridiculous,
however, by thus persistently shooting
arrows at the sun.

Oily when he is not pedantic is cat
egorical. He is now doing his best to
make the fusion nominees define their
position regarding single tax. He
takes each of the candidates by the
fOrelock and propounds in sepulchral
tones: Are you or are you not n
single taxer?" The duties of some of
these officers are SO far removed from
any possible action on the question,
that this procedure seems the height
of absurdity. But, then, Oily was never
