There is just now considerable talk
about the crusade that the LIE Roy city
council is making against the socially
inclined travelling men. It is charged
that these naughty men even f1irt with
the lie Roy girls. A very honorable
and unmarried travelling man informs
us that he has frequently visited
lie Roy and that these same girls who
are being f1irted with in that town are
never absent upon the arrival of the
covered cars that convey the horrid
travelling men to the town. We think
that the crusade is started in the

Poor Excuse.

David Wilcox, the president of the
Delaware and Hudson company, was
opposing the idea that a coal strike
would occur again.
There will be no danger of a
strike" he said, las long as the oper-
ators and the miners are perfectly
open and fair and reasonable with one
another. But they must not suddenly
leap up with unexpected demands that
require immediate answers. They must
give one another time for thought, they
must give plenty of warning when
they have in contemplation any
change.
Should they make sudden, unex-
pected demands, it would not do for
them to excuse themselves with such
specious argument as that which a
certain kitchen maid employed upon
her mistress.
This maid said calmly, one Sunday
afternoon:
~ don't see how I am going to
cook dinner, ma'am. There is no coal
No coall' cried the mistress. Good
gracious, Maria, why didn't you tell me
before?''
THE maid answered calmly:
I couldn't tell you there was no
coal, ma am, when there was coal. -

Remarks concerning the branding
of fraternity men at the university has
led to the question of who started the
custom. Said a prominent senior of
the university on Saturday; q guess
we got the custom from the ancients,
but branding as practised at Pennsyl-
vania now is more of a fad than any
thing else. Several years ago there
was none of it, but nowadays every
fraternity man is wearing the letters
of his frat embIazoned on his upper
arm in gaudy blue letters. The Gus
tom is, of course, optional with the
fellows but, as in the case with every
fad, they all want to be in it. There
is man. an ex-sailor, on North Eighth
street who does a thriving business
tattOOing the men. He charges 50 a
letter, and as most frats' have three
letter names, he makes Sc of every
student. There are, of course, men
who do the tattooing cheaper, but the
majority are willing to pay the price
to get the real thing. The only com
pulsory branding done at the univer-
sty is in the fraternity limitations, and
in this case a piece of ice is used, or
some candle grease is dropped on the
victim. This is, of course, harmless,
but the effect of the candle grease can
be felt for almost a week AFTER

HENRY AELRN.s HoPE.

When ". r. Stubs called at the
White House yesterday to direct the
president about the distribution of fed
eral patronage in Kansas, he was, ac-
cording to the dispatches, invited to
consult Senator Long. whose business
the federal patronage of Kansas is.
Mr.. Stubbs appears to have gathered
up all the warm and feEYid- recognition
that is due the man who butts in. she
interest in the affair lies chiefly IN
the showing that the president is ION. "
Mr.. Stubs appears to have been meas
ured up in the White House. as he has
among his acquaintance in Kansas,
as a young man who has taken him
self somewhat more seriously than
the circumstances and conditions war
rant. While the case of Stubs has
been quite generally diagnosed in
Kansas as an attack of that complaint
which commonly follows when a young
man of Mr.. Stubs caliber suddenly
becomes the subject of daily headlines
in the newspapers. it had not been ex-
pected that the real analysis of the
situation had reached the White House
tt will be hoped that the president was
as cOnsiderate as a full knowledge of
the situation should make him, and
that he administered the corrective
without too seriously wounding the
! feelings of the great man from kan

Party Politics.

Degenerate executives IN state and
city are one Of the undesirable pro-
ducts of party disloyalty making a
base use of party loyalty, says the Ore
gonian. The disloyalty exists among
certain comparatively small groups OF
men banded together to accomplish
selfish ends of their own. For exam
pie, to control the market for baking
powder, or to protect the liquor busi-
ness. or to obtain franchises or gam
bling privileges. These men, having
strong common interests, are very Of
ten closely organized and are able to
throw enough votes one way or the
other to decide elections in many
cases. They hold tie balance of power
in politics and they use their power
for either party, and giving success
to the one they can use most COM
pletely. Parties are thus diverted
from the pursuits of their wholesome
and legitimate purposes to become the
instruments Of the railroads. the gam
blers, or whatever private interest
happens to wish to use them. They
look for success through the favor of
these highly organized, utterly selfish
factions, rather than from promoting
the public veal: and the party loyalty
Of the masses is such that they Will
often steadfastly follow leaders who
neglect and betray them. Thus the
disloyalty of small factions holding
the balance Of power, and the loyalty
OF the masses Of the voters, sometimes
work together to ruin and degrade
our politics. 1t is the small and de-
termined factions. ready to work for
either party as interest dictates, which
decide the fate of candidates. and no.
body knows this better than candi-
dates themselves.
