The Riding of Hobbies.

1t must be unpleasant to be a
statesman with hobby and then re
ceive an intimation, direct from the
throne, that equestrian performances
on that particular nag will not be
tolerated. AS we understand, this is
the situation in which Gen. J. War
rem Keifer, of Ohio, finds himself,
at this writing
1t has been some time since Gen
eral keifer has adorned the House of
Representatives. In the interim he
has been a soldier in that sanguinary
conflict that is enshrined in history
under the name of the Spanish
kEisrican war Moreover. he was
the first commander-in-chief OF the
bG,.s of patriots known as the Span-
ish War Veterans
The hobby General Keifer prin-
eipally affects is a desire TO reduce
the representation of the Southern
States, because, as is alleged, the
franchise is denied certain of their
citizens. To attain so laudable an
end. he is joining forces with Repre-
sentative Crumpacker of Indiana,
who in the past has been the first
exponent and stoutest champion OF
this ideal. Together. they will make
great pair.
We are sorry for General Keifer
but there seems no real possibility
of being helpful We would if We
could 1t is inferred that the Speak
er's disinclination to activity in the
hobby line will not extend TO its
vocal exposition and that General
Keifer will be permitted to talk In
the past that has seemed to satisfy
Mr.. Crumpacker, and we hope ii
will prove an equal balm for his ally
and friend.
There is, of course, one further ray
of comfort-several, in fact, if We
may speak in terms of the spectrum
