NOT UNANIMOUS.

1t is interesting to notice that white"
opinion in the South concerning the ne
gro is not entirely unanimous. James
P. Woods, ex-nlayor of Roanoke, Vir-
ginia, says that though he is a native
Virginian and his, father was a captain
in the Confederate army, he opposed
the inclusion of the grandfather
clause" in the. revised constitution. He
does not think it the part of wisdom to
claim the exclusive franchise for the
white race on the grounds of service
and heredity. It is not fair absolutely
to close the door Of hope in the face OF
the negro. 1t is an unwise and danger
GUS thing to assume such an attitude
toward any element of our population.
So far as matter of partisan policy is
concerned, from a Democratic point of
view it may have been a mistake to
eliminate the negro. We are no longer
able to cast opprobrium on the Repub-
lican party in Virginia by calling it the
negro party, and many who believe

Upon a careless shore. @
These glasses we turn down to-day,

We shall be wineless then as they,
And will not mind 1t more.

And dream one more dream there.

their fight against the packers.
When the rent is only sl.50 a week
and the neeessaries OF life supplied by
the relief bureau, few wants remain TO
drain the family pocketboOk. There is
the daily can of beer to be purchased
for the evening meal: a little tobacco
with the union label on it-for the men,
and an occasional can of condensed milk
for a sick child.
The average savings of one family for
two years is estimated by the strike
leaders at $500. None of the deposits at
the Stock Yards Bank has yet been
touched. The only Withdrawals, so far,
1t has been declared, have been in the
case of the few who have returned to
Europe. Some times the proprietor of
the corner saloon acts as the banker for
the neighborhood. Often the money is
hoarded carefully in the dwelling. ~.

Some men seem born with a scrap
book instead of mind, says the Lon
don Spectator. "All their experiences.
however gained, remain disconnected,
and are merely a selection of oddments
"a, selection which gets bigger as they
get older, but out of which they can
make nothing. While they are very
young no one, perhaps, notices their
mental misfortune. They display their
scraps with pride, and receive praise for
their quantity and their quality. A good
memory is a sufficient equipment for a.
starter in the race of life, and it is
amazing how far it will take man,
even when childhood is long past and
he has his way to make in the world.
Socially speaking, the scrapbook- mind
ed have almost always a superficial
success. Perhaps the form of scrap ex-
change in which they excel most is Of a
personal nature. They forget nothing.
They know what So-and-so does, and
they know what he or she did, and even
very likely what his or her grandfather
used to do; but as to what he and she
actually are, though all the evidence is
before them, they can form no estimate.
Their store of knowledge does not help
them to any moral conviction"

The London Christian World says: Mr..
Henry G. Davis, the Republican candi-
date for the American Vice-Presidency,
is a capitalist, and was probably nom
mated to bind the capitalistic element
to the Republican ticket. The outstand-
ing fact about him is that he is eighty
one years Of age. 1t is curious that in
America, where youth is idolized, a pol
3itician in his ninth decade should be
nominated for the second office in the
State. Mr.. Gladstone was, of course,
about the same age when he became
Prime Minister for the last time. Mr..
Davis is to marry a septuagenarian

Union Pacific Has Purchased Is the
Latest Gossip.
Chicago, Nov 26-The Post says:
purchased the Chicago Great Western
road was reiterated this afternoon with
such positiveness and circumstancial
evidence in it's favor that it received
general acceptance. The deal, which
has been pending for some time, was
said to have been closed, and the Chi
cago Great Western will shortly lose
its, identity as an independent road
and either be wholly absorbed by the
Union Pacific itself, or distributed
piecemeal among the eastern connec-
tions of that system. One report has it
that the Chicago Great Western will be
divided between the Chicago & North-
western and the Milwaukee & st. Paul
systems, both Of which have for sever
al years been close connections of the
Union Pacific. The Northwestern, 1t is
said, will take that portion of the
Maple Leaf which runs from Marshall
town, Iowa, Kansas City, and the Mil
waukee & ST. Paul will take the st.
Paul end Of the line.
There is another view of the case,
however, which is that the Union Pa
cific will keep the Maple Leaf and op-
crate it as the eastern end of it's own
system,
1t will, it is declared, give the Union
Pacific very, good outlet from Omaha
to Chicago and the short line from
Omaha to ST. Paul.
