WhistIina In a Graveyard.

Will the omniscient Dispatch please
inform an eager and expectant world
why those ambitious and palpitating
patriots Messrs. Babcock of Wisconsin,
Hull of Iowa and Overstreet of Indi-
ana have refused to officer the Repub-
lican congressional committee this
year? For fear it will be too modest
and too sleepy to answer will do SO
myself. The Republicans have elected
six houses hand running while they
were at the head of the committee. OF
course, as they had money to burn and
bought everybody that was for sale
the Republicans would have elected
those houses even if Babcock, Hull and
Overstreet had never been born; but
they were in the limelight as chairman,
vice chairman and secretary and have
been accorded great honor for the
achievement. They are able men-wise
in their day and generation. While
they know that they have received
more than their share of glory, they
do not propose to be shorn of it by be
ing at the head of the committee in
what they believe will be a losing fight.
They know that the huge Republican
majority in the house will be greatly
reduced if not entirely wipetS@ ut, and
they do not intend to be made scape-
goats. 1t may be that the Pittsburg
Dispatch knows more about the
chances of the campaign than such old
and slxilIful soldiers as Babcock, Hull
and Oyerstreet, but it will have to
produce afidavits to prove it.
Here lately Mr.. Speaker Cannon has
in his offhand manner pronounced the
claims of9Democrats of an approach
ing victory to be tommyrot, but Uncle
Joe was following an old example Of
whistling in graveyard to keep his
courage up, also the courage of his fol-
lowers, many of whom are at the pres
ent writing suffering from a bad case
of the mulligrubs.
The Dispatch has read the history of
governments bottomed on suffrage to
little advantage if it has not learned
that all things human, particularly
things political, are very uncertain.
The fate of the British Tories at the
late elections should be enough to give
it the cold shivers, for the Tories of
Great Britain correspond to American
Republicans. Twelve months ago had
any one foretoid the overwhelming
rout of the Tories he would have been
laughed to scorn, but they were routed
nevertheless, horse, foot and dragons.
A year ago they had as big majority
in the house of commons as our Re
publicans now have in the house of
representatives, but at present they
constitute pathetic minority.

a New Pronhet.

Attorney General Hadley of Missouri
figures much in the newspapers and
stands much in the limelight these
days. Of all the Republican accidents
brought to the surface in Missouri by
the landslide of 1904 Hadley appears
to be of the best stuff. Because of the
wide advertisement which he has re-
ceived in his tussle with Standard Oil
he was lately the principal orator at
the annual banquet of the Missouri So
ciety of New York. On that occasion
he turned prophet, and here is his pre-
diction: Missouri is in the Republican
column to stay, at least till she
changes back" perfectly safe utter
ance. In that sentence the qualifying
portion is the more important part
ssat least till she changes back" Veri-
", Attorney General Hadley has
great head. In gaming parlance there
is performance known as hedging. ;"
Perhaps Brother Hadley has heard of
that and was practicing it. Perhaps he
is natural born wit and could not re-
sist the temptation to exercise that
faculty. At any rate, he hit the bulls
eye and no mistake. Missouri is in
the Republican column to stay, at least
TIL she changes back" That reminds
one Of the man who was Boosting of
how well his dog obeyed him. To illus
trate his theory he said to the ca
nine. go outdoorsr' whereupon doggy
started to go under the bed. Observ-
ing that, the man added, "Or under
the bedr' thereby leaving himself in
the position that the dog was thorough
ly obedient.
Nobody begrudges Mr.. Hadley the
reputation he has made in his chase
after Rockefeller He is too sensible a
man to believe fer one moment that
Missouri is Republican state, and per-
haps it was his own realization Of sn
impending Democratic victory in that
imperial commonwealth that he was
endeavoring to convey to his eadi1cra

The Prospect.

The Pittsburg Dispatch takes very
much to heart a recent remark which
made to a newspaper correspondent,
giving it as my opinion that the Demo
Gratis would control the next house of
representatives, and proceeds to bella
Dor me in quite lengthy and bad tenn
pered editorial. The chances are that
it is the fear that my prediction may
prove true that is worrying the es-
teemed Dispatch. 1t pOzes fun in an
elephantine sort of way at my sugges-
ton that exposures of thieyery in high
places will help the Democrats. Won
der if the Dispatch has forgotten the
exposure of Belknap's corruption and
other exposures of the same sort and
that shortly thereafter the Democrats
elected Samuel Jones Tilden president
and Democratic house True, the Re-
publican freebooters robbed Tilden of
the presidency, the greatest crime ever
committed against representative gov
eminent, but that does not change the
fact that he was elected. The Dispatch
sagely remarks: The voters are dis
eliminating. The old idea of securing
reform by focking to the opposition
camp is exploded Since when? Why.
bless its sleepy old soul, the Dispatch
must be a veritable newspaper Rip
Van Winklel Only last year the peo-
pie Of Pennsylvania secured reform by
fiocking to the opposition camp and
electing Democratic state treasurer
by 10000 majority, thereby overturn-
ing a Republican majority of over half
million Of the year before. The vot-
ers Disseminated" that time sure as
you live. Even later than thatto wit,
in FEBRUARY Of this year the people Of
Pittsburg, right under the nose of the
somnolent Dispatch, secured reform by
fiocking to the opposition camp and
eIectlng Democratic mayor. The vot-
ers once more Disseminated Where
was the sapient Dispatch then, and
what has it done with its memory
The seven sleepers of Greece rolled into
one were not marker to the Dispatch.

weary of the corrupt gang which has
plundered the Buckeye State for years
and achieved reform by focking to the
opposition camp and electing a Demo-
cratic governor by rousing majority
notwithstanding the fact that Roose-
welt carried the state in 1904 by 250,-
600 majority Truly the people dis
eliminated that time An investigation
by Democratic senate into affairs in
Cincinnati brought to light all sorts of
graft and eruption. This spring near
ly every big town in Maine elected a
Democratic mayor because the voters
in the effort to achieve reform focked
to the opposition party. But the Dis
patch waves all these instances of with
a lordly air Of disdain. When Noah
was warning the antediluvians Of the
impending f1ood-even after the rain
had been pouring down for ten days
one doubling Thomas, shaking off the
water, remarked, ut isn't going to be
much of a shower after all" The
world knows the result. The Dispatch
man must be a lineal descendant of
that fellow.

A Good Double Team.

Thomas William Hardwick of GeOr-
gia is a very young man who looks
even younger than he is, but recently
he made the eyes of the old congress.
sional stagers pop open like morning
glories and demonstrated to everybody
that if he remains in congress he is liza,
Bile, indeed likely, to go far. Hard
wick's spring into the limelight and on
to the center of the stage was as sud
den as Saul's conversion as he jour.
neyed from Jerusalem to Damascus.
There is a rule of the house that new
legislation shall not be fastened as
rider on to appropriation bills, a whole.
some rule, but the appropriation COM
mittee, regardless of that rule, brought
in the legislative, executive and judi.
cial bill, with hundreds of bits of new
legislation scattered through it, gener
allv to create a new Office or to raise
an old salary. Hardwick is opposed to
unreasonable increases of salaries and
to the creation of unnecessary Offices
consequently he and Mr.. Prince OF Hi
nois double teamed, hunted out every
violation of the rule and raised the
point of order against every one. They
punched the bill SO full of holes that il
looked like a sieve, and at last the ap
preparations committee in despair ap.
Piled to the committee on rules for q
special rule making the things which
were not in order under the general
rule in order. 1t was great triumph
for Hardwick and his co-worker, Prince.
Republican Harmony always spelled
with big His a mystery. 1t is GER
tainly queer brand of harmony. To
illustrate, the Massachusetts Republic
an congressional contingent, headed by
Hon. Samuel W. Mccall were so dis
pleased with Hon. Serene e. Payne's
ukase to the effect that there shall be
no tariff tinkering at this session Of
congress that they are doing their level
best to secure signers enough to a Pc
tition to call a Republican caucus to
consider their grievances. Colonel Will
liam Peters Hepburn of Iowa is chair
man Of the Republican caucus, and he
is even a worse stand patter than Hon.
Serene. So the Massachusetts brethren
are likely to have head-on collision
with Colonel Pete, and their last condi-
ton will be worse than the first

Mrs. Fairbanks Grieves
At Miss Anthony 5 Death

Mrs. Fairbanks, wife Of the Vice
President, was much affected by the
death Of Miss Anthony Mrs. Fair
banks has long been a friend and ad-
mirer Of the distinguished woman, and
believes that in Miss Anthony's death
the country has lost one Of its most
loyal supporters and faithful friends.
In speaking Of Miss Anthony today,
Mrs. Fairbanks said:
In Miss Susan B. Anthony's work
and life, the principles enunciated in
the Declaration OF Independence found
in her a generous and fearless expo
nent. These principles are events In
her work for freedom. temperance, and
equal suffrage. To these she devoted
her life and her last thoughts. The
impress Of her work is left upon the
statute books Of the country, especially
Of New York State.
The first part OF her work was
marked by threats Of personal violence
almost rioting, by those who misunder-
stood her aims; the close Of that work
and her life has a halo of glory. All
the world is bringing tributes Of re
membrance and honor to one whose
work has been for the benefit Of
humanity
