THE APPOINTMENT OF PRINTER A
WILSON VIoroRY.-The selection OF
State Printer is said to be concession
to the Wilson wing of the Republican
party, in which is planned to take
care of quite anumber of his following.
1t is by no means satisfactory to the
Lieutenant Governor, Mr.. Gorham
having refused to even publish the
name of the candidate for that office
with the regularly nominated ticket,
for reasons satisfactory to himself and
probably many Others, who waged war
upon him till the campaign was well
on and it was found that what could
not be cured had to be endured.

THE SANGUlNE TEMPERAMENT
The Individual Who Is Honest in Opinion is
Generally Unpopular
BY BYRON MILLETT.

1t is said the good will of q dog is
better than his i'll will. That depends
much upon the nature of the dog, and
the culpability of the party arousing
the ire OF the brute Similarly, if a
man from righteous motives in the
pursuit of some laudable undertaking
offends an individual of prejudiced
vision with a weak moral nature, it is
doubtful whether in the long run or on
the home stretch his opinion is OF any
assistance or detriment to the first
party. If thoughts are things, as af
firmed by many Of our profoundesl
thinkers, evil mentation sometimes in
fects a whole community with preju.
dice against some particular individual
free from blame on his part because
he had the courage of his convictions
nothing multiplied by nothing pro
duces no results. The opinion of the
mob is like the shifting sands of the
valley of the Nile; whatever is ap.
proved to day is condemned on the
morrow and Vice versa. He, who
trims his sails to meet the wbims oil
public opinion, submits to the domin.
ion of a relentless tyrant-stands on
life's plane a mental slave and moral
coward. To say the least bis whole
life is mistake.
Reforms have always originated with
the minority and it will ever be 40.
Ever since mankind appeared upOn
the scene OF action, mental and moral
giants in every age have arisen. trod
den under foot time honored tradi.
tions and the contempt of the multi.
tude for innovation, reflected the
morning glow of the future, enabled
posterisy to plant itself upon higher
plane of thought, that the children of
men might develop nobler and more
beneficent possibilities of manhood
and womanhood than this old world
had ever before known.

SEATTLE is FOND OF PIE.-Some
pencil-shover with a penchant for fig.
ures has estimated how many pies, or
rather how much pie, the people of Sc
attic eat every year. While pie and
pudding are not found on every table
as a regular course, it is quite evident
that Seattle must be regarded as an
exception in the proportional numbers
who are able to live on such rich food.
The man of figures says that residents
of that city "make way with" 1885,
100 pies year; that if they we're
placed in line, sides touching, they
would reach 566 miles; that they
would cover the roadway OF an average
street seven miles. A baker in that
city is authority for the statement that
about half the pies made are with
apple filling, and lemon comes next.
Pie is peculiarly an American institu'
ton. In Germany it finds favor with
only the Yankees; in Italy pies are
practically unknown, and by very few
countries may they be regarded as a
universal course OF top.sheaf diet.

THAT LITTLE FELLOW Is IMPUDENT.
1t is now thought that our govern.
ment will have to administer q drastric
dose TO Castro. The answer made by
his . Foreign Secretary to Minister
Bowen's request for arbitration is
decidedly undiplomatic and almost
threatening in its wording. He says
that the Venezuelan President will
defy our whole armyand navy rather
than yield to the American ultimatum.
This answer is as barbarous as the
spelling Of the name Of the Secretary
which is Alexjandro Ybarra-and
will make the blood of our strenuous
President boil with rage.

NALlANr FEAT OF Our SrKENrurs
PKEsIrENT-!resident Roosevelt took
care to have enough press reporters
with him while " hunting bear" to
insure that the public he thoroughly
posted regarding his deeds of proves
and courage. They expected OF course
that in the woolly west opportunities
would be presented for deeds in pro-
portion to the nature AMI reputation
OF the cowboy President. So far, how
ever, nothing worthy of report has
happened except a storm which, being
no rcspecter Of persons, tore up the
Presidents tent which had been ex.
temporlzed into All executive chamber
This week, however, the Presidential
party ran up against a wildcat, and
the opportunity for ilorid rhetoric was
presented, and half column or more
is taken to describe how the President
" slipped from his horse" and caught
the wolf by the jaws, rendering it
helpless" The difficulty of such a
task, cen with an ordinary animal, is
emphasized by the sage remark, "This
feat is accomplished by but few plains.
men or cowboys." 1t is probable that

IT CosTs MUcH TO LIVE IN STYLE
1t costs the We're de Veres, who lead

Ainslee, town home adequate for the

Mackay runs her list up 10 double
that number, in her Long Island home.
The mistress deals only with the heads
of this army. The butler has his
squadron. the cook hers. Purchases
are made by the heads OF these de.
partments, who receive a commission
which is of course added to the ex-
pense, and which in itself often
amount to snug inco me. Social riv.

that the nobby set will dissolve pearls

MiklhttL INCIDENT IN A METHODIST
CoNThEESCE.-The hating manner OF
reading report of an eminent divine
lately, IN the Melrese (Mass.), N. +.
Conference, created quite a profound
sensation, as for the moment it ap.
peared to convey information of an
event about the last that would find
lodgment, under the circumstances, in
, clerical minds. Rev. James Brady is
ti,ld agent of the Preachers Aid So
clety, and his report dealt in the most
prosalc facts of financial narration.
After giving the aggregate of collec-
tons made. the clerk paused a mo-
ment and then read 81 am engaged
to Miss Helen Gould" Had not the
Secretary paused 10 wipe his NOUS
tache, the profound thrill OF dismay
that ran over the assemblage would
probably never have passed beyond
the bounds OF startled surprise, but
the silence was, to the eager ears Of
the ministry, more eloquent than
words, and all sorts of eyes met other
questioning eyes, and all tongues
seemed ready to join in a general &C.
claim, when the Secretary resumed,
"to meet her, and discuss the needs OF
our work." The reaction was about as
marked as the excitement, and some
fell back in a state OF collapse. One
member arose and asked that the
lady's name be not mentioned outside
the hall, and another tried to exoner-
ate brother Brady from all blame for
the unfortunate halt in the Secretary's
voice in reading his report. Fortu-
nately nobody seemed to regard the
incident as other than an uninten-
tional slip, but had they been close
observers, or not so perturbed, they
might have seen twinkle in the Sec
retary's eye, which seemed to indicate
thorough appreciation OF results, if
nothing more.
