MUCH ADVICE ABOUT NO MONEY

A man who had relatives
visiting him from the country
dropped into his Office chair and
heaved long sigh, says the New
York correspondent of the Louis.
vile Courier-Journal.
"Thank heavens. they're gone, "
he exclaimed, and he sighed again.
"Whose gonei" some one asked.
"My relatives from the country"
"You don't seem to be overload
Of your folks"
"Oh, like them we'll enough,
but the way I've had to she'll out
for week was enough to break
the bank of England. You see,
my sister and her husband ran
down for a few days to make Us a
visit and see some Of the sights.
They live in a little place where
the greatest excitement the town
ever gets up to is a euchre party
or a lecture on the Land Of the
Midnight Sum- or some such thing,
and when they got here the way
they wanted to 60 to the theatre
every night, to dinners at hotels
and restaurants and automobile
riding, doing the slums and every
thing else was simply awful. At
home they would think if they
went ont and spent So frivolously
that they had committed a sin.
Here they sat around coolly and
watched me put up $40 a night for
theatre tickets for four of US, 500
for bite at Sherry's, Delmonico's
or the Waldorf, ten . day for cab
hire, and Of that sort of thing, and
every night, too. But it wouldn't
have been half so rough if they had
seen anything that suited them.
There wasn't thing in this whole
city that could hold a candle to
there dinky, one-horse place. And
then when they were going away,
what do you suppose my brother-in
law said to met Why be had the
gall to suggest that I save my
money for a rainy day. Gee
Wouldn't that make you sweari"

The regular Republicans, (black and

gan City next month, to elect dele
gates to the National Convention
at Chicago. Similar action is being
taken in every Congressional District

pancity of the republican vote in the

potent factor in determining action.

During the first bombardment Of
Vladivostok by the Japanese it
was feared that they would stop
and kill the 5000 fallow deer kept
on the island of Askold. These
deer are Of a Siberian species, Of
which these are almost the only
surviving specimens. They are
valued at a million rubles. The
Chinese pay from 800 to 500 rubles
for single pair of horns. They
pulveize these and use then as med
icins.

Some people should realize what
they are saying when they make
criticism and how unpleasant it is
for the one that is being criticised
to stand and listen to the words
that are being spoken in a slurring
way. Persons that do these things
should remember that other people
have feelings as we'll as themselves.
But there are some people in this
world that like to do a fellow being
all the good they can, while there
are others that when they can't do
you any good they will try and do
You a little harm. Those are the
people that are always envious of
others. Their principles are like
the dog in the manger. They can't
do anything themselves, and don't
want any one else to do what they
can't. But still they have a desire
to criticise others that try to do
something for themselves and their
friends and fellow beings. Why
should person that can't do any
thing that gives pleasure to the
public be envious Of one that cant

THE STATE ELECTION.

The State election held in Louis.
lana, as was expected, returned the
entire roster of Democratic nomi-
| nees for State officers and members
Of both houses of the State Legis-
latu:e.
The Republicans nowhere cast
the 10 per cent of the votes neces-
sary to give them party standing
in the State. Despite their boasts,
so far as the returns have been re-
ceived the Republicans not only
failed to carry single parish, but
even to elect a single delegate to
the General Assembly.
The weather was clear aud
warm, ideal for an election, and it
was so throughout the State.
Nevertheless the vote will be found
to be very small The enthusiasm
of the campaign was used up in the
nomination primaries, and the pre-
partitions therefor. 1t was known
that nomination meant election,
and there was nothing yesterday
to bring out vote.
The Picayune has heretofore de-
plored the smallness Of the vote
cast in this State, and it is oil be-
cause there is no opposing party to
excite zeal, activity and enthusi-
asm. The failure Of so great a
number OF voters to cast their bal
lots is most unfortunate exhibit
ton of apathy in regard to the
most important duty entrusted to
free citizens.
If it were proposed to deprive Of
the ballot all who fail to exercise
it there would result revolution,
violent uprising Of the people
to protect and secure themselves
against such privatiou, but as
soon as success was assured the
victorious people would at once
fall back into the same criminal
indifference and apathy.
1t is not enough in this case to
have elected the full Democratic
ticket. 1t is the smallness OF the
vote that brings upon our people
such blame and reproaches as are
poured out upon them by Northern
politicians. -Pic0yune.
