FRUIT AND THINGS.

Science is a great invention. and the men who ladle 1t out to us common nor .tais are wonderfully cute. We hardly know what we'd do without science and scientists, for they know a great many things. Some of the things they know are not true, we admit, but that doesn't matter. We must. take their statements on faith, or any other way they are of fered.
 There's our little friend the microbe. now. How should we get on without an assortment of microbes? We find an editorial article about them in The New York Times which Is very interesting, but there is only one point about 1t which concerns us and that is the discovery made by some modern scientist that all fresh fruit Is covered with germs. and he has been kind enough to take the census of the micro o-organisms which are to be found on various kinds of fruit. He names ten varieties of fruit as favorite breeding grounds of germs ,and the num- bers run from 100000 on half a pound of plebian huckleberries to 12,0O0.00O on the
 same weight of aristocratic cherries. Just
 why there should be such a disparity in numbers we do not learn. Why there should be a difference of thirty-to-one Is | not explained. but we are not in posi- ton to dispute his findings because we haven't time to count the microbes, ever on one cherry.
 These small creations. 1t must be borne in mind, are to a great extent disease germs. Some of them may be harmless but We don't know how to tell then apart, and are as likely to swallow baC ones as otherwise, possibly more so. fol there's more of the biting kind, and un less we could pick out the easy ones WI are likely to get an enlarged and varied assortment of diseases whenever we ca fruit. A healthy boy can eat half-a pound of cherries in one instalment. anC to think that he has swallowed dozer million rampant, untamed microbes fl hardly reassurinE. We suspect that thes'

little Fellows are really the cause of the
 antics frequently indulsed in by children after a raid on the orchard or fruit bas- ket.
 We should be pleased, of course. to tell
 the reader how a man could so about
 counting such an immense number of
 things that can only be seen by the aid
 of a powerful magnifying glass, and we
 must frankly admit that we don't know,
 and don't expect to know. We are in
 formed that the result Is reached "by
 trustworthy methods of computation"
 and that is all we have learned. We may doubt the accuracy of the methods used and deny the results arrived at, but when this is done we are out. We only know what certain Germans claim to have ascertained and that is as far as
 We have gone. If they aren't telling the truth we can't help it, and If they are we are no better of.
 But, some one may ask. what good Is l it to know these things? There again we are at sea. It is hardly to be supposed that people, children especially. will quit eating fruit, or that they will always take the trouble to cook it. Cherries have been eaten raw since Adams day, we have no doubt. Possibly microbes hadn't been invented then, though there are those who contend that they were here long before Adam ate the green apple. However that may be, people will eat un- cooked fruit and if the microbes don't like 1t let them clear themselves of.
 We can't forego all fruit eating just be-
 cause we might discommode a few mill
 lion little creatures which haven't spunk
 enough to come out where they can be
 seen. Microbes be hang'd!

A WE'LL FOUNDED HOPE.

An editorial which appeared Tn Tno
 Advertiser of October l7s 1900, Is repub- / lished on this page of today's issue. The
 article, 1t will be seen, did but scant jus flee to MT. Cleveland's wise and states
 manlike conduct of public affairs and es- pecially his generous recognition of the South and Southern people in the distri- button of high offices. Men in calmer moments can re-read the article with profit and realize now to what extent in- austice and harsh treatment were meted out to one who had been especially zeal- ous in upholding the honor and dignity of their country.
 1 It will be noted from the date of the kArticle that it was at a time when his Enolftical fortunes might be considered at Rthe lowest ebb. He was out of office. and In a measure out of the public eye, lead Eang Q quiet and serene life at Princeton. ERJew Jersey which was then and is now his Ihome. A copy of The Advertiser con- Raining the article in question reached En6r. Cleveland. and on the 24th of Octo- lber, 1900, he wrote to the editor letter Epf grateful acknowledgement for what Twas said in vindication of his course, He tpould have had no ulterior object in ut- skering words of eommendation or cen- kEure, because at that time no one con- kddered him as likely to figure again in kpontical life, at least to the extent which Execent events bid fair to indicate. Yet kAGr. Cleveland, in spite of the fact that knearly all the public men of the South Ekurned bitterly on him, and as far as Lkhey could arrayed the people against Ehim. had no word of complaint or censure Ito utter. On the contrary he was filled ENtth generous emotions and trusted to kkime and results to set him right The eEollowing is an extract from the letter (which he wrote to the editor of this pa- Eper:
 E Of course, have at times been pain kBully sensible of the unkind treatment l have received from those whose friendh- ness, or at least fair treatment, l deserv- cd; but have never abandoned my faith an the justice and magnanimity of my Oountrymen. This faith is firm even now | Nvhen conditions are so much against it. 1 Democracy will come to its own again and you and 1 can bide the time. As ! for myself, looking forward to such a

Watson and Judge Cobb.

A writer in The Birmingham Ledger,
 referring to the late James E. Cobb, who
 represented the Fifth Alabama District
 in Congress several terms. and who died
 a few days ago at Las Vegas, N. M.'
 says:
 Flames E. Cobbs has passed from the
 was Circuit Judge when 1 first knew
 him, and he was a good judge. and
 would have gone to the Supreme bench
 had he not sought a seat in Congress. It
 so happened that I was in the House Of
 Representatives when Judge Cobb ut
 tered the expression, C'Mr. Speaker,
 where was I at?) It was denied that
 he said 1t, but 1t was really said. Judge
 Cobb was speaking and was interrupted,
 and then when he was about to resume.
 he turned to Speaker Crisp and used the
 words. Nothing would have been heard
 of it. had not Tom Watson Of Georgla'
 published the story and accused Judge
 Cobb of being tipsy
 main correct but Tom Watson did not
 accuse Judge NCobb of being tipsy. This
 correspondent was in the press gallery
 at the same time that The Ledger writer,
 was then Superintendent of the House
 Folding Room, and as such entitled to go on the floor of the House, was present and heard the expression over which ex- treme ado was made Which nearly led 10 serious consequences.
 Among the correspondents, who were in the press gallery at the time the slip in arammar was remarked, but 1t was merely taken for what 1t was-a lapsus linguae-and not regarded as an error of ignorance Although newspaper men are keen to note sins against correct speech, which are not rare among Con- Rregsmen in the speed of debate, it is not often that hypercritical use is made of such incidents.
 As The Ledger writer says, nothing would have come of it had not Tom Wat son published the famous Cobb slip fudge Cobb, as a member of the Commit | ice on Elections. was discussing con- | tested election case when Watson took note of it and used 1t in a Peoples Party campaign book which he wrote. entitled Not a Revolt.
