IN THE ASH BARREL.

II may come like slap of wet rag

the Panama hat is no longer in good
form. It may be ripped up and made

Our sense Of the beautiful is con-

donned his Panama and marched down

while resolving to forget how much he
paid for It,
Hats are like ideals; they change;

AvAlLlRlllTY.

The Philadelphia Record has been
flirting with the Gray boom for some
time. but It now turns and pays its
addresses to Judge Parker. 1t says OF
Judge Gray: "No man in the country
enjoys in a greater degree the eonh-
dsnce Of the pco0le Of an parties" yet
It adds: "The Democrats Of Pennsyl-
vania naturally turn to the neighbor
on the north" and assumes that they
viii support Parker.
Yes; they viii do this naturally" for
at the present time Parker has the
greater strength. The pre-eminent ht-
ness Of Judge Gray Is set forth. while
the qualities which entine Parker to
the honor are not mentioned. 1t Is then
question Of expediency. as we
thought, and the fitness Of the respect
i've candidates has nothing TO do with
it. The Record might have held this
opinion. but its frank expression was
not anticipated.

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
The divergence between the opinion
.of professional politicians and Of the
leaders In manufacturing industry
both on the side Of capital and that
of labor Is becoming quite marked in
connection with the senatorship. The
point of divergence is that the object
of professional politicians is simply TO
build up "a machine of which Penrose
shall be the head; while capital and
labor are Inspired with the theoretic
and mugwump notion Of securing a.
Senator with intellectual powers ana
public ability TO represent and honor
the great Industrial community Of
Western Pennsylvania.
The political columns of the news
papers reporting the ideas current I'm
professional circles tell us that Elkln Is
not desired by Penrose lest his ability
and popularity should cast the majesty
Of Penrose In the shade and even retire
him TO back seat The unspoken
syllogism between this premise and the
conclusion that is drawn in favor Of
George r. Oliver or =. l.. Robbins must
be charged to political gossip and not

Ths KaiserIs Fears 0f Japan.

peror exhibited q painting which at

many leading the civilized nations in
their defence against the so-called yell
low peril. And an invasion Of Europe
by the hordes Of China, II once they

ever since been considered a dreadful
possibility Of the future. Ia fact, one
OF Russia's chief claims TO the worlds

10 get control Of the uncounted millions

Aud yet we find that iu the German
Emperors own army is a corps of

RuLE NINETEEN.

We presume that were we holding a
nice fat Office, we should want the Re-
publican County Committee to repeal
rule number nineteen. For were we
comfortably fixed we should want to
stay, and we should have no dimculty
in convincing ourselves that the party
and the people owed II to themselves to
retain our services and enjoy us for
ever.
But as we are not in Office, and voN
populi has not called us from the plow
TO sit with our feet on a desk. smoke
black cigars and discuss politics, we
have another view-p point. It occurs to
Us. then, that since we may not all
enjoy office at the same time. those
who have, had the privilege for a term
OF years Should move along and thus
make room for those who have ex-
perienced hope so long deferred that
it has made the heart sick.
Once in awhile when great duties
devolve on an official and when he
displays especial qualities that 1T him
for the task. we who don't expect TO
succeed him anyway may rise up and
demand that he retain his place for
another term. in order that we may
further enjoy the fruits of his labor.
But Rule Number Nineteen did not
contemplate that such a condition
would become anything but excep-
tional; and that shows in what wisdom
il was conceived.
Yet it is said that rules, laws and
constitutions must give way when the
interests OF the people demand. And
we are prepared to go on record as
favoring the abrogation Of this rule il
it is actually true that good govern
ment. efficiency and all other blessings
depend upon the retention OF any Of
the present county officers.
