CONDENSED STORIES.
The Origin of Wittieisr, at the Ex-
pense of "the Watchdog"

That history repeats itself was
brought out in the senate debate
last winter on breeding stations,
when Senator Bailey, Democrat, of
Texas alluded to Speaker Reeds
bonmot at the expense of Judge
Holman of Indiana, "the watchdog
Of the treasury" Mr.. Bailey said
the wittiest and bitterest thing
Reed ever said was when an ap-
preparation that came very near
Holman's home was up and the old
judge was remarkably silent about.
1t and Reed ~ "The watchdog
never barks at home folks"
"That was said,' interrupted Sem
ator Hoar, Sin 1869 or 1870, when
l first came into the house"
Mr.. Bailey was sure the remark
had been made later, while he was
himself member of the house,
which was many years after Mr..
Hoar went over to the senate. The
Texas senator appealed to Senator
Lodge, who was a member of the
house at the time. Lodge nodded
his head to confirm Bailey's stor,'.
Then Senator Hoar arose and Sid
the witticism originated when E. B..
Washburn was member of the
house. He, too, was Watchdog"
He had not objected to bill passed
BY his brother, Cadwallader, who
was a member at the same time from
Wisconsin. "Some one," said Mr..
Hoar, asked the speaker, James G.
Blaine, if the representative from
illinois had objected. NO. said Mr..
Blaine; ''the watchdog does not bark

POLITICAL ODDS AND ENDS

lengthy editorial in its last issue.
Now is the time to speak out, for
after the convention it will be too
late.
Millionaire Thomas Walsh says that
he will not be a candidate for gov
ernor on the republican ticket but
wouldn't mind being forced to stand
for the U. S. senatorship. He would
not enter scramble for the place."
and the demand on him must be al
most unanimous by the party" He
will probably not be heard of again.
Senator Hume Lewis might yet be
H. NJ. Hogg's opponent for congress.
Mr.. Lewis is an active young man who
could easily outrun the venerable con-
gresham in a foot race, and who
would probably run about as fast a
political race as anybody the demo-
Gratis could put up. He is editor of
the Star-Journal, and his candidacy
would cause that fellow feeling to
arise In the breasts of republican
newspaper men and make them falter
"'twixt love and duty"
No wonder Pueblo county repub-
licans are timorous. Just read this
from Bro. W. ]. Jackson's paper, the
Democrat:
Such revival was never known
in the Democratic party. Men who
have been fooling around for years
are scratching out of their holes and
coming to the front. The woods is
full Of them and reunited are the
forces Of Jefferson and Jackson and
Lincoln with Parker in the lead will
sweep this nation like an avalanche
next November. You watch our
smoke and by the time the canons
laundering roar Teddy's gang of mod
ern Republican boodlers and Peabody
will have disappeared"
The radicals in the ranks of DEM
ocracy would not be content with the
nomination Of either Alva Adams nor
G. ]. Hughes for governor, they being
men Of conservative ideas. Chas. S.
Thomas is more to their liking. He
is rip-roarer from Georgia and
would make certain element think
he is of the Ben Tillman stamp. At
least to listen to him make a speech
one would be led to think 30, although
when he was governor he was not
counted fierce. The radicals, how
ever, explain this on the ground that
he was building up his senatorial
fences then and for sufficient reasops
chose to be moderate and for the
most part rational. But since when
has he forsaken his senatorial aspir-
stions? That part Of the deal is
news to most people.
