already have their agents out in the

What a waste Of time and money! A

would be about as valuable as share
Of stock in company organized to

What getter Of southern Republican
delegates needs to do is not only to
corral them, but to collar them and to

Many Men Getting a Sensible Habit.

the popular thing to stop in P A..
Clemmcr's drug store and get a pocket
full Of Wadsworth Bros. MChicos, "a &c
cigar that has caused many men to get
what may be called the "Chicos'
habit.
1t is far more sensible to smoke a
good SC. cigar like the 'Chico" land
there is no other &c cigar like it) than
to pay double the price and get no
better smoke. 1t is made with clear,
long Havana filler, and is especially
pleasing to the man who has been
smoking 10c. or two for a quarter
cigar. 1t burns freely, and tastes
good clear to the stub.

Improper are not permitted that great

thought that the Porto Ricans could
be naturalized, but the other day the
court Of appeals of the District Of Co

this country under the civil service

toward complete naturalization. So
those who are objecting vociferously

heads about such matters. when they
reflect that they, the original lords OF
the soil, are not permitted to vote,
while Porto Ricans are about to be ad-
mitted to that privilege. 1t Is high
time that philosophic and exhaustive
inquiry should be instituted into this
naturalization business. Congress
should take the matter up and pass
rules SO plain that United States judges

The election Of Mr.. Hemenway, late
chairman Of the appropriation COM
mittee of the house, to the senate Is
likely to cause reorganization Of that
great committee. BY promotion and
by defeat it was much depleted. Hem
enway and Burkett go to the senate.
They are both Republicans. Benton
Of Missouri and Pierce Of Tennes-
see, both Democrats. were defeated
Pierce for nomination and Benton for
election. Hemenway was jumped over
