Keep After Bill Boards.
From the Baltimore News.


Mayor McI.ane's action in taking up the
bill board nuisance question SO promptly is
in gratifying contrast to the slow move
ment of the preceding administration IN
connection with this subject. Everyone eX-
cept the very few persons Immediately in
terested in the bill boards can see the evil
of them and their bad effect upon sur
rounding property values. 1t may be that
the present laws are all that is necessary
to enable the city to cope with this demon
of ugliness. Baltimore. commercially and
industrially. Is destined to grow immensely
within the next few years. 1t Is OF vital
Importance that these minor but irritating
defects be not permitted to grow in like
proportion. Rather 1t is the duty Of its
citizens to that Baltimore'S artistic
growth keep pace with the commercial ex-
pansion. In this way we may be assured
of city that will be good to look at. at
tractive to visitors and-best of ala
pleasant place to live in. This is some
thing to work for.

A Cleveland Boomer.

BoUrke Cochran returned yesterday from
a protraCted visit abroad and made two
Announcements. He Will not surrender his
American citizenship and take up his resi-
dence in Ireland. and he thinks that if Mr..
Cleveland is nominated for President next
year he Will be elected.
The rumor respecting Mr. Cockran's
change OF residence decorated with
some ambitious plans. The famous orator
was to seek a seat In parliament, and ad
dress himself % to the settlement of the
Irish question. and then CD to the defeat of
Mr.. Chamberlain's tariff scheme. 1t was a
big contract for newcomer. but friends of
Mr.. Cochran did not doubt that he would
undertake 1t and prove equal to 1t. The
fact was overlooked that the Irish question
has passed beyond the domain of mere ora
tory. and that as an advocate of free trade
Mr.. Cochran has had no success here at
home.
Mr.. Cochran Is to remain with us and II
Is evident Will take the stump next year
If Mr.. Cleveland heads the democratic
ticket. The Cleveland boom. by the way.
continues to show unusual features. 1t
comma ands the services Of certain orators
and newspapers never before friendly to
Mr.. Cleveland They opposed his first
nomination vigorously. They accepted his
defeat in ISIS with a resignation which
strikingly resembled satisfaction. They all
hut rebelled at the mention of his name in
lhe. But here they are. at the end of
twenty years clamorous for the fourth
nomination of the man they have so long
very cordially hated. Mr. Cleveland has
had many triumphs of one kind or another,
but none OF a stranger quality than this.
How he feels when reading eulogies from
such sources must be left to the lmagina-
tion. and the Imagination capable of doing
Justice To the subject must be vivid
1t is true. however. that while some of
Mr.. Cleyeland's old enemies have whipped
around to his side and are now leading the
chorus in his praise. some of those who
heretofore have all but worshipcd him are
very guarded in discussing him for another
term as presidential standard bearer

Undonei
From the New Orleans Times Democrat.

View Times -DemOcfAt.
Wall street is passing through the agony
which inhered in the fitness Of things
from the very moment when Mr.. Morgan
and his fellow Aladdins began to rub the
wonderful lamps and rings which the
splendid prosperity Of the American peo-
pie had endowed them withal The genii
appeared at the behest of the magicians,
and proceeded to erect cloud-capped tow
ers-on foundations of sand. Hundreds of
millions of fictitious wealth are vanishing
into the void whence they came. and the
land is filled with the wall of the dream
ers who. blinded by the spell of a great
name. mistook the shadow for the sub
stance of things. There IS justice, both
prosaic and poetic, in the fact that no
small part of the huge loss falls upon the
supersubtle promoters who, in the very
act of biting incautiOus wayfarers, have
themselves been bitten to the bone.

Horse Troughs.
aw York Tribune.

From the New York Tribune.
Millinery designs in straw headgear for
horses this summer lack variety and deco
ratfve effect. There picture hats
crowned with c!umps of flowers about the
nodding foretops Of the patient servants
OF mankind. But the meek and long SUI
fering creatures are not protesting against
the lack of Partisan ornaments. In the
worst heats of torrid weather the ugly
things do lessen to some extent the mis-
cries OF the unfortunate animals. But the
horses need more drinking fountains to a
far greater extent than they need straw
hats.
New York is scantily provided with water
trOughS for horses. There's d tempting
opportunity for men and women OF means
to multiply Il hundredfold the drinking
places within our municipal limits where
the needs of human beings can be satisfied.

The most skeptical must be convinced by

hoped for. And the later crop does not
