SKINNY IN DISGUISE.

Some of the most ruthless idol break
ers of these iconoclastic times are found
upon the bench. When judges are so
minded they can Danish the supersti-
tons of youth and innocence, expose
whatever shams connubial bliss may
include, hold popular heroes up to scorn
and turn the fads of society inside out.
The presiding jurist in a New Jersey
tribunal of justice the other day rem
dered a decision on golf playing on the
Sabbath, in the course of which he said
that the game commonly known as golf
is nothing more nor less than shiny"
in the eyes of the law.
Is it possible, Have we read with

titled to play, to learn that it is the
most savage pastime Of the old-fash-
toned boy? OF course there are differ
ences between the way it is played in
society and the way it used to be played
at school. There was but one ball for
the entire gang in those days, and
every fellow carried his own club. But
the court says it is the same game.
And so the aristocrats are playing

roly-hole or knucks, it will be time to
wonder whittier we are drifting. and

Those who denounced Ambassador

him in public discourses and demanded
his recall in legislative resolutions and
memorials 10 congress. are stretching
their Liliputian legs today trying to
walk in his tracks.
He spoke in such cordial terms of af-
lection for the mother country, and
advocated relations so friendly and
close between the AneIo-SaXon peoples
that all the McKinleyites and Dingley
ties in the coUntr- We're setting the
nation afire with :heir Indignation.
One outraged patriot introduced a res
plution in the state Legislature of Utah
bewailing the fact that any American
should favor utilization with our al
legged enemies. the free traders of Great
Britain.
It is different now. All the imperial
lists of all the parties in this republic
are looking to England for encourage
ment and advice. Ambassador Choate
says that MIR. Bayard was the pio
neer in the Transformation of sentiment
that has taken place between this
country and Great Britain" Senator
Depew says: we did not see the work
Mr. Bayard did, at the time he gave
expression to sentiments which, posi-
bly,, had no reality in England, and he
knew it. We did not know it, and
blamed him. But he was laying a
foundation and accomplished the mar
Vicious work of preparing the way for
the grand revolution in popular senti-
ment on both sides of the Atlantic"
After all, the animosities which for
merly existed between the two coun-
tries. while they had their origin in
rebellion and revolution, were foment-
ed year after year by demagogues. who
were won't to wave the British flag in
every campaign as a free trade buga-
boo, and who undertook to convince
the American people that the English
were trying to force upon this country
to its impoverishment the commercial
policies under which the United King
dom was thriving as the great mari
time force and financial center of the
world.
Expansionists never appreciated Mr..
Bayard until he was gone.
