We Patient Editor.

From the Denver Evening Post.
He had read the county paper since its
first appearance day,
And had fed the trusting editor on prom
ises to pay.
But had said on each occasion when his
yearly bill was due,
That the scribe could go to hades for he
didn't have sou.
He would drop into the sanctum and would
never shut the door,
Smoke We editors tobacco, claw his fresh
exchanges Ger.
Eat the apples and the doughnuts and the
other things that fill,
Sent by readers and admirers who had
never shirked a bill.
But We editor was patient; though his soul
rebelled his tongue
Not a word of swearful Gliding at the
cheeky nuisance swung,
And when friends would mutter, Roast
him. he, with a forgiving smile,
Said he guessed it would be better just
to let him run awhile.
One cold day he turned up missing, and
the news was quickly spread
That he'd interviewed a snowslide and
was comfortably dead,
And We editors big ledger showed his cred
it page was white
AS the snow that slid upon him hiding
him from mortal sight.
Then again the people shouted: Roast
him! Roast him good and strong!
Tell his neighbors what a bilker they have
harbored here SO long!
You who shielded him while living,
roast him now that he is dead!"
But We editor smiled gladly and with joy
fun shake of head
Made reply: Il think he's getting quite a
roasting where he's at
My esteemed contemporary, Satan, will at
tend to that"

A bill having for its purpose the prac-
teal elimination of the negro as a voter
has been introduced into the North Caro-
lima Legislature. Ii is modelled after the
Louisiana law, which embodies both a
property and an educational qualification.
Prof. Crosby, an educated and intelligent
negro of Raleigh, says the law ought to
be passed; that it Will prove a good thing
for the race. There are in the state he
says, 125000 negro voters under the pres
ent laws OF this number he is satisfied
that not more than 25o0O are qualified to
form an opinion respecting politics. He
thinks It is unfair TO The white people and
10 the qualified blacks that these persons
should have an equal voice in the govern
ment.

1t is believed the change of the position
of the church in Cuba from a government
supported to an Independent institution
will be accomplished without any trouble
or friction In fact, the change has al
ready virtually been made, and it remains
now only for the plans to be worked out
No request has been or will be made
of Gen. Brooke by the church for assist
ance, and the priests have been instructed
~ the Bishop to let their parishioners I'M
derstand that in future the church must
be supported by contributions

Several years ago the penitentiary of
North Carolina was often referred to as
a model institution of its kind, from an
economic point of view. II was self-sus-
tanning, and the physical condition of the
establishment was first rate. Whatever
may have been the fact several years ago,
the North Carolina penitentiary seems to
be in rather a sorry plight now. 1t Is
$4,000 or more in debt and the bin must
be met by the legislature In 1896 when the
Democrats turned the government over TO
the Republicans and Populists the peni-
tertiary was on a self-sustaining basis.
Four years Of the fusionists have turned
it into heavy burden. 1t is said to be
probable that about one-third of the state
farm which has been cultivated with con-
vict labor win be given up.

The President 1t is stated, has not vet
made up his mind respecting the future
of the Philippine Islands beyond these
three points. namely. that they will not
be returned to Spain, that they will not
be turned over to anarchy, and that
their seizure by any other nation viii not
be permitted. With these matters set
tied in the Presidents mind, it would
seem that there are but two others points
10 be considered; shall we keep the ISL
ands or give them independence? The
idea of selling them, or swapping them.
will probably not be seriously contem-
plated for a moment.

Topeka is Witnessing a grand carnival
of office-seeking. The Republicans have
been on the outside so long that they are
exceedingly hungry, and are making
great rush upon the new Governor. For

which he has opened a list of those who
want and viii take anything. AT last ac-

Rev. Tom" Dixon of New York has
resigned as pastor of the Peoples Church,
because he says he has been "disillus-
ioned' respecting Christian union, and
other things Among the other things,
he thought he would have more liberty

than in a Baptist Church. But he says
he has discovered that he has not said

CURRENT COMMENT.

Speaking of polygamists, besides Brig
ham H. Roberts there are others. The
Baltimore Sun (Dem.). says: at may be
noted in this connection that in annexing
the PHILIPPINES we shall annex the insti-
tuition of poygamy a firmly established
institution The Mohammedans and other
native Filipinos have a plurality of wives,
and to enforce monogamy will be a diff
cult task. The conscience OF the people of
number of the tribes approves the inst-
tuition, as does the Utah conscience so
that interference will require large army
TO be effective. The Sultan of the Sulu
Islands-part of our Philippine archipela-
go-is said to have an extensive and varied
harem. Our fellow citizens of Alaska and
Hawaii and the Indians of the United
States are said to be generally polyga-
mists. Their institutions deserve the at
tention of an exemplary Congress"
The Philadelphia Press, Postmaster Gen
eral Smiths paper. says: "Mr. Quay has
no claim upon the party for services rem
dered. He has been repaid a thousand
fold for everything he has ever done. On
the other hand, he has brought defeat and
disaster and discredit upon the party. To
him and his friends the party owes the de-
feat of two Republican candidates for
Governor To him the present Governor
elect owes the fact that his plurality was
only 1l7.O0O instead of 100000, and to him
a number of Republican candidates for
congressional, legislative and county Of
fees owe their defeat at the last cleo
ton"
The forthcoming advent of DR.. Depew
into the Senate reminds the Nashville
American Dem) of joke. 1t says: 1T
is possible that Senator Depew may vio-
late the traditions of the Senate and make
a speech during the first session of his
term 1t will be expected OF him that he
keep quiet and listen. But can he do this?
viii he not be reminded at some stage of
the proceedings of a story and be forced
to tell this story?"
There is a difference between a success
full politician and a statesman. The
Washington Post Gnd) thus defines it:
1.-THE most successful politician is the one
who gees with the majority of the people
The best statesman is the one who goes
in that direction which his judgment APP
proves and is able to give convincing rea-
sons for his course"

The Philadelphia Ledger says that
''some of the Pennsylvania legislators are
still waiting to see on which side of the
senatorial fence the grass grows greenest
Before getting down" Are there three
or more sides to the political fences in
PENNSYLVANIA?

President Mckinley has had more money
placed in his hands by the government
to be expended as he might consider for
the best interests of the country, than any
of his predecessors. Shortly after the
Maine was blown up Congress placed $5O,-
100000 in the hands of the President, and
later the urgent deficiency bill added 81
COO 900 to the funds An the Presidents
hands. A good deal of it is there yet. It
has been suggested that the President
might use some of it Ito convince Aguin-
aldo that American domination of the
Philippines would be to his advantage"
according to Washington dispatch an the
Herald. Does this imply that the Pres
ident might try to buy off the insurgent
Filipino? Spain tried that plan.
