 London society Is ridiculing the
 snobbery of the Bradley Martin:
 who are now in the city of fogdon
 because the said Bradley Martins
 as ex-Americans are fond of rani
 and title. A London special says
 "The hunting papers are chaffins
 MT. and Mrs. Bradley Martin upoT
 their love of rank and titles. It aP
 pears that the door of every
 body staying at Balmacan bears ;
 large card bearing the occupant
 name and title. The door of tho
 nursery of the baby of Lady Craver daughter of MT. and Mrs. Bradley
 Martini has upon it 'Visoouut Uffing ton." the title of the eldest son O.
 the Earle of Craven" An English.

 "URder present conditions our be-
 loved organization is slowly but
 surely disintegrating," says the
 Populists in the national address
 which they have just formulated in
 St. Louis. This judgment appears
 to be correct. About half of the
 Populist party seems to stick to the
 Bryanite coalition, and, of course,
 the straightouts hate and denounce
 that element. It would be we'll for
 them, however, 10 be tender toward
 Bryan. The Popocrats may expel Bryan between this time and 1900, aud in that event he will drift back to the Populists, and they may find it advisable to nominate him. They could easily make a worse selection. -Globe-Democrat.
 Dun's Review: In failures 1897 was not only the best year since 1892, but on the whole the best ever definitely known. With 13,522 fail .ures, in number ll.5 per cent. less than 1896. and Sls2.5Sl,77I defaulted liabilities, 340 per cent. less than in 1896, the years banking failures counted for 2S,240,7OO. and the commercial failures were but I3,351,
 
 with liabilities Of Sl54,332.O7l, tLe average per failure being only Sll,- 559, the lowest ever known except iu 1892. But even in that year the failures during the last half aver aged liabilities Of SlO,477 per failure, while in the last half of 1897 the average was only 9,593. Failures for the week have been 322 in the United States, against 47l last year, and in Canada g against 62 last year."
 President Dole of Hawaii, arrived in San Francisco last Sunday on his way to Washington, D. c. In an interview President Dole said: ''I do not come to the United States to work for annexation. l am mere ly on friendly visit 10 this country and its President. l expect to re main in San Francisco three or four days, when 1 will start directly for I will there call upon President Mckinley. Itwas thought best by the Hawaiian government that during the consideration of the treaty by the United States Senate l I should be in Washington, and ad- 1 rise the Hawaiian legation on cer ain matters I think the senti- nent of the people of the island is more than ever in favor of annexa- .Ion. To be sure, there are some | natives who are indifferent and oth- ITS who are opposed 10 annexation. !
 The department stores of Denver, which have inaugurated a fight | against the newspapers of that city. | Ire likely to have little trouble | with the city council. Small retail . lealers engaged in one line exclu- lively, complain that the depart nent stores do not pay a license, with the various lines ,f business they engage iD, and pill is pending in the city council here requiring such places to pay 900 a year license fee each, and here is every reason to believe that will pass. The measure was lraWn by the city attorney at the equest of the aldermen, and 10 nake assurance doubly sure that it Eill hold good. It will be submitted o counsel before being passed.
 "The JIM. juoilates over the cleo ion of Mark Hlnna," says the Courier. Just as though it were | xpected that republican paper houid mourn over the success of a spublican. Our contemporary ; ould have probably jubilated had ( IcKisson been elected. That gen eman stated his politics when he ] as called before the caucus and z id: ''Geutlemen: Publicly and be- g 're the people, 1 an and must be a z publican. But 1 assure you and edge you that, if elected to the f nited States Senate by this fusion. I will stand upon the Chicago plat a 'rm." That is the kind of a man Il Ie democrats selected to defeat a ' raight out and uncompromising I, putlican. A man who would pub ,ly announce his position in this r amer is unworthy to hold any |, lblic position, and the man who <; ould support him after hearing | ch a declaration from his lips is ] better than he. The pledge, ougb, was satisfactory, and the ; ucns declared for McKisson for R e long and short terms.
