The MisanthrOpe's Hey Day.

Let's talk about the weathcr-for hate my
fellow man.
l like to make my neighbor as unhappy
l can.
l like to see him sizzle In companionship
with me:
To add to his discomfort moderates my
misery.
So l stop him on the corner and 1 show
him all disnayed.
The weather mans announcement that It's
so in the shade.
And 1 blandly buttonhole him and I hold
him fast to hear
My tale of the humidity that's in the at
moSphere.
I show him where the wagons, as they plod
along the street.
Leave deep ruts in the paving which is
softened by the heat:
And I watch his writhing torture with a
diabolic ;lee.
For l know I've found a person more I'M
happy cen than me.
To make my fendish work complete. tell
him. as rule.
It's very wrong to fret: that he must study
to keep cool
fird sartionic comfort in my grim Mephis-
tic plan
Let's talk about the weather-for l hate
my fellow man.

American Wines.
From the New York Tribune.

From The New York Tribune.
American wine IS good enough to sail
under its own colors. and the pirates flag
filings a black shadow of reproach upon 1t
which it does not deserve. France threat
ems to throw out of competition the brands
which bear French names, counting the lat
ter fraudulent and an injury to French
commerce. There are very likely several
sides to the question. which will not lack
animated discussion. One result of it may
be that France will undertake to send us
no more wines which are not what their
placards say they area scheme founded
on a better standard of commercial morals
than 1t has ALWAYS upheld

From the Philadelphia North American.
The only journalism that is making any
Roadway is the independent press-not indie
pendent in the sense of having no fixed
principles or of simply cracking heads when
one pops up as at the Donnybrook fair, but
Independent in its financial circumstances
and its mental and moral equipment. owing
no man servility and needing only the favor
of the public and the encouragement of a
clear conscience.
The thick-andthin party organ Is dead.
And with its passing the right kind Of
new spaper enters larger and a more glor-
ious than any hitherto known in the
worlds history.

From the Chicago News

Emperor William of Germany. Emperor
Francis Joseph of Austria. the kings of
Greece. the king of Portugal and the re-
gent of Spain. Menelik of AbysslnIa and a
host of other sovereigns have decided not
to attend the Paris exposition. but the
Partisan is not worried over the kingly
boycott. Greater than a king is the un-
crowned American citizen and it Is he. in
conjunction with his money, who is des-
tined to bring soiace to the Partisan heart

The French may have considerable respect
for royalty. but when 1t comes to a choice
between an impecunious king and a rich
American the American has the Partisan
with him every time.
