ly to cost us large per centage of our
representation in congress and in the
electoral college. Already the plans
are made for the forging of our bonds.
Ii is part of the scheme of the dom
inant party to reduce our political pow
er TO the minimum. and We expect TO
see IL attempted inthe next congress.
Who have we to blame hut ourselves?
The Telegraph has long hell to the
idea that the south should go into the
electoral college independent az any
party of the north. at least until they
repeal the fifteenth am andnent. and
there make terms. We are Il peculiar

long as the cloud of black aliens is
aboutabout us. put there by northern
democrats and republicans alike, it
would be the part of wisdom and COM
mon sense to stand apart. select our
presidential electors apart. and then go
into the electoral college demanding
terms.
1t is Just as easy as it is to suggest
it, for the south to resolve itself into
an Independent political force, and in
this way. and no other. can ii master
the situation. BY this method it can
absolutely command what it wants. be-

pose to fight the Stephens bill to death.
FL Paso people are coming more and

more harm than good. especially in

Ii has been many years since there
has been such widespread dissatisfac-
ton within a political party as that
which now exists in the so called dem
ocratic party. Out OF all the multitude
of counsel that is being promulgated
by the party organs. there is one thing
that seems to have a more general en-
dorsement than others-the cry that
the defeat was Bryan's personal de-
feat. and not an indication OF the loss
of faith by the people in democratic
principles or the party itself. Some
folks have suspicion that the people
haven't had much faith in the demo-
cratic party or its alleged principles
for about forty years back.

In discussing the tendency of the
modern drama. the Chicago Tribune
compares the sensational society plays.
the newer dramas of the French order.
which seem to hold first place in the
estimation of the fashionable theater-
going public. with the melodramas in
which prize fighters are the chief at
traction. to the obvious advantage of
the latter class. Says the Tribune:
When all is said and done the vital
drama is to be preferred to the I'M
healthy drama. II may not be of a
high order or talent. but it is at least
manly and does not embarrass an au-
dience with indicate situations and
suggestive lines. Ii is more delicate to
witness the hero of the prize ring rush
ing to the defense of the weak victim
and smuggling her assailant all over the
stage than il is to witness the vulgar
amours of roues and adventuresses and
listen to their suggestive talk. If only
one must go. by all means let il be the
unhealthy drama. but why should eth
er longer cucumber the stage with SEN
suality and drivel? If the stage is re-
duced to problematical plays, fistic
dramas. and continuous vaudeville il
has reached a low ebb.

Sidewalk Sermon.

| notice that the sidewalks on the main
business streets are in a deporable condi-
ton. This don't bother me any, as 1 al
ways walk in the middle of the street any,
way; but there are others with more citi-
fed ideas who like to imagine they are
strolllng along something in the shape of a
sidewalk. One gentleman tells us that the
walk will often fly up and hit him in the
face when he has taken glass of lemon
ade. A number of persons are ready in
the hospital with broken elbows caused
from trying to connect with our sidewalks.
In order to walk with anything like safety
along our streets after shutdown one must
be constantly on the alert. He must be
perfectly sober, and have the eye of cat
and the equilibrium of tight-rope walker.
So says a gentleman who lives in the -four
ishing city of Aberdeen. He think Aber-
deem walks are bad. He ought to walk
over those in Centralia and be ashamed he
ever spoke disparagingly of those in his
own town. Centralia has some walks that
are going to be sent to Paris exposition for
exhibition as the poorest on earth-provid-
ed they viii hold together. Centralia
