As when Bill wrote his rhymes.

An BY the moon they swore.
The girls are the same as Bobby Burns

For sech research is in vain.
The moon aa' the women they make no

AS poets sing to-day;
The moons as round, an the girls as

An that's the mournful lay.
The moon goes on, jest as calm an

As round the world she whirls-
They swear by the moon in the dreary
night,
An swear about the girls.

In the United States senate last
Thursday, Senator Tillman, of South
Carolina, offered an amendment to
the post office appropriation bill, di.
recting the postmaster general to buy
metal boxes of uniform size for the
the rural free delivery service at a
cost of not exceeding SO cents each,
and to furnish the same to the patrons
of the service at cost. The amend.
ment was accepted. This is move
that ought to have been made some
time ago before so many patrons had
been compelled to pay such exorbi tant
prices, but it is better late than never
and it is to be hoped that the bill may
become law.

One Man Power.

1t was republican member, Mr..
Cushman, representing the state Of
Washington, who, in speech deliver
ed in the house April II, said:
"We have adopted a set of rules in
this body that are an absolute disgrace
to the legislative body ofany republic.
They are unrepublican, undemocratic
and nAmericau.
"We meet in this chamber today a
condition thatchallenges the consider
alton of every patriotic man, and that
is set of rules under which this body
operates, or perhaps it would be more
correct to say, under which this body
| is operated.
s'lt is with unspeakable humiliation
that stand up in my place here and
| say that 1, as member of this body,
am entirely unable to bring up for
consideration or for final determina-
ton on this floor any measure unless
l can first make terms with the speak
er.
"Who Is the speaker Of this house?
Is he mortal man like the rest of us?
Who is the speaker OF this house that
sets up his immaculate judgment to
judge on every bill thatis introduced?
When member introduces bill in
this house, not private bill, bat o
public bill, what happens? 1t is re-
ferred to a great committee OF this

does the member who introduced it
and who is charged by his constitu-
ency to secure its passage do? Does
he consult himself about his desire to
call it up? No. Does he consult the
committee thatrecommended 1T? No.
Does he consult the will of the ma
jority of this house? No. What does

just what manuscript sermon Il
worth has recently been settled In
Tho e,osn vo,,. Virginia by board
of clergymen. The
question, it will be
seen, is one of no little difficulty. A
manuscript of Rev. Jonathan Swift or
of Rev. Laurence Sterne would un-
doubtedly bring tidy sum, but then
1t is sold in Its quahty as anautograph
of a noted writer, not as an essay in
divinity. The Virginia case was more
nearly normal. Through the negli-
gence of railroad company satchel
containing 202 sermons--for diligent
Clergyman, the production Of several
years-was trretieyably lost. The
owner OF the satchel naturally put in
claim for damages. It's plain to see
that the case was not On easy one. In
volying. as It did. several elementa.
Considered economically, each Of these
200 sermons might have been delivered
to the enhancing OF the authors repu-
tation and emoluments. THEORETICALLY
considered, there may have been such
irremediable loss Of exegesis or ex-
hortation that any adequate solatium
would be out of the question. Then the
case lacked precedent; we do not pay
for sermon in manuscript, but for q
sermon delivered, which is very diff
ferent thing. To be sure, notes the
New York Post, there are literary bu-
reaus which send circulars regularly
to college seniors and to theological
students. One, whose Offices, # we re-
member, are at Akron, o., charges only
so cents for sermons, as against $e5 for
humorous addresses. But then the
originality of these sermons IS not
guaranteed. 1t is this provision which
makes the award in the Virginia case
very deplorable. To allot only $3.50
for 2o2 sermons certainly is to sanction
the literary bureau scale of values,

cannot conceive that sound divinity can

A Bill to Abolish Slavery.

way, has introduced bill to abolish
slavery in the Philippines. Whatwill
the republicans do with the bill, pass
or pigeon hole it through the tactics
Of the Speaker and the arbitrary rules

in full with the enacting clause.
"H. r. 1925. A bill to abolish slavery
in the Philippine Archipelago, and
for other purposes.
"Be 1t enacted by the Senate and
House Of Representatives. the Unit
ed States of America, in congress as
sembled, that from and after the pas
sage of this act there shall be neither
slavery nor involuntary servitude In
the Philippines archipelago, or in
any province or dependency now held
by the United States government or
which may hereafter be acquired.
"Sec. 2. That the so-called treaty or
agreement made and entered into be.
tween John G. Bates, brigadier gen.

acting for. the government, and the
Sultan OF the Sulu archipelago and
the Datos whose names appear as
parties to said agreement or treaty,
dated August 90, 1899, be, and the
same is hereby disapproved and dis.
affirmed and declared void and of no
effect.
"Sec. 3. That the purchase, sale, OF
gift Of slaves In the whole Of said
archipelago is hereby forbidden and
declared Illegal, likewise the importa-
tion OF any person bought or in any
manner acquired in a foreign country
and transported for the purpose Of in.
voluntary servltude to the Philippine
archipelago"
Are the republicans ready to claim
the glory taken to themselves by Mr.,
Lincoln's emancipation of three mill

slavery for many more millions in oul
distant and recently acquired posses.
