The prospects are fair that when the
Cleveland and Bryan wings of Minnesota
Democracy and the Dunn and Collins
Republican factions are finished with
one another there will be material for a
new political party. BY the way. does
not all this hubbub again suggest the
advantages of a system that would put
the dictators out of employment, per-
uniting the people unhindered to work
out their own salvation? Well come to
that some day.

Mayor Fay of Virginia is surprising
the people of his town by his saloon pol
icy. He has given orders to the police
force prohibiting all drunkenness on the
streets, and an anonymous writer, "Citi-
gen." criticises the mayor because he
thinks the order an unnecessary hard
ship on the lumberiacks. Replying to
this criticism, Mayor Fay claims that
his purpose is not to injure. but to pro-
mote their welfare. He says:
"Having been a lumberjack all my
life, l know the observation-disclosures of
these men much better than the writer
OF the communication can ever expect
to-. The only interest the writer of the
ridiculous letter and his prompters have
-4 t1ao' [, 1esalr IN IS aa4eire
his hard-earned money as quickly as
possible and by any method that the
laws OF the state may, or may seem to,
hold as Legitimate. The mayor of Vir-
ginia is the lumberjack's friend. 4
The order has gone forth that intox,cat-
ed men shall not be allowed upon the
streets of Virginia, and do not doub.
that the police force will obey it to the
letter. Those furnishing mon liquor
after they are drunk will not be allowed
to kick them out into the street after
their money is gone, but, instead, they
will be required to protect both their
persons and their cash while they are in
such condition as to be unable to pro-
tect either themselves or their pocket
books"
The law plainly makes it an cffense to
sell liquor to drunken man. That's not
one OF the privileges for which license is
issued, but it is so rare as to be note
worthy that municipal executives take
this view of it. That paltry license fee
does not purchase the privilege of max
ing beasts OF men. The license carries
with it duties that seldom are appreci-
ated, and almost universally ignored.

BADGERS 4 !, ] /: u ! !;


The badger isSa great Iepicure inSeggs.
and much Of the hostility Of camel &C s.
ers to this animal lies undoubtedly in
the fact that It will, when itigets the
chance, devour a whole nest Of partridge
or pheasant eggs Badgers are said also
to be fond Of honey; and knowing the
extraordinary craving OF their South
African cousin, the ratel. for this deli
cacy, should say It is not improbable
that they may occasionally partake Of
it, says HMsA. Dryden, in Longman's. It
is certain that these animals have =
particular liking for the nest and larvae
of wasps and wild bees, digging down
with strong feet and infinite #persever-
4 ance till they attain their object In
I the captive state q young bad ger: was
brought up on a diet arst5of the milk of
a retriever bitch, by which It was fos-
ter-mothered, afterwards Of eggs and
milk, then of fish and meat. It approved
Of bread and potatoes, when crum bled
up and mixed with milk. It would oc-
casionally eat shot birds, and once, get
ting into hen house, killed five chick
ems. These animals are said by keepers
to kill and devour freely young rabbits;
that they do partake of this fare at times
is, think, certain: but that they destroy
any very considerable number Of rabbits
in the course Of the year is more than
doubtful. Still, the badger is carnivor-
Gus in his tastes, and is not. even by hts
kindliest friends. to be absolved from
devouring at times tender rabbits and
even the Young of game birds when he
can get hold of them.
