n,ediately to this last passenger.
"Thankee," he said; comic almanac,

or course ii is Il pity that Mrs. Norris
had to be forcibly elected from
the White House the other day in such
an undignified manner. 1t is also Il
pity that the incident should be used
as a text for attacks upon the Presi-
dent or his subordinates. 1t was Il de-
plorable affair. and il is very much to
be doubted if the woman deserves the
sympathy which has been given her.
Everybody knows that the President
ia one of the most accessible rulers in
the world: in fact. il is much easier to
gain an audience with him than it is
with many public official or private
citizen in this country. Mrs. Morris
WAS plainly bent upon making a scene
ana her election was simply an un-
pleasant but necessary duty of those in
The office.

Campaign methods i'm cOnservatiI

Campaign methods i'm conservative
OLD England are in some respects more
strenuous than those in vogue in this
country when political heat is most in
tense. According to recent reports
such eminent gentlemen as Mr.. Cham
berlain and Mr.. Balfour have found it
difficult to obtain hearing for their
side of the existing controversy when
they have appeared in public. both of
them having been hooted and howled
from the platform in a manner wholly
unknown at political gatherings in this
country. Free speech is very much of
q myth in English political campaigns.
and when English editors indulge in
criticisms and snrers at mob rule in
this country they forget i very vulner-
able spot in their own armor.

The Slowest Of Trains.

Talking about slow train through

the New Orleans Times-Democlat. cit
isn't in it withlthat little road that runs
into little town in this state. It's a
branch about five miles in length and
the way those trains run over it is
heart breaking. Honest, when you get
on one OF those darned trains you
dent know if you are ever going to
get off. l remember one day ! wanted
to go to this town and ! transferred
to the branch at the junction. They
hooked up Il couple of dingy little
coaches to Il stuffy engine and then
'hitched II or Il bOXcars on the end.
Then We started out. Honest. that
train went so slow that if YOU stood
on the rear end of the coach ana took
Il step forward you'd bump violently
into the front door before you knew
it. Anyhow. we had dragged along
about two miles when it was discover
ed that the conductor had been left
hind in 4 way station saloon. We pull
ed up at Il siding and then the engine
switched and went back for the con-
ductOr. He was playing sevtn-up. The
engineer joined in the game and stay
ed there a while. Then all had Il round
of drinks and the stuffy little engine
pOked its way back over the two miles
between us. We waited there about
seven hours and there was sure some
sore ones in that bunch. Somebody
raised Il howl and the conductor asked
him what he was always kicking for.
Anyhow that settled me for that road.
I'm going to try that Arkansas outfit
next"

fact that the Gulf stream was either

exchanging animated notes on the sub
ject of the seal question 1t was 4 burn
ing issue of the day. but in recent
years little has been heard of it and
public interest in the Behring Sea

that Secretary of State Root and the
British ambassador are trying in n
quiet way to dispose Of the seal ques-
ton for the matter still remains un-
settled and the poachng is continued
with a result that the seals have been
slaughtered at Il most derlorable rate.
These seals have been regarded as a

Greeks in America.

We do not commonly think of Greece
as land which sends this country
many emiSrants, but 4 mass meeting of
1000 natives of Greece in Chicago the
other night shows that the land of
Homer. Sophocles and Demonthenes
has a representation in the United
States not to be despised. The object
of that meeting was to intensity their
loyalty to their adopted land and i'm
press upon them the opportunities and
privileges which lie around them here.
Among the speakers were the mayor
Of the city. 4 Greek priest. 4 represent
tative Of the bench. 4 university profess
sor and several other invited guests.
One Of the speakers said that where
there were n handful of Greeks in Chi
nearly 10000 there. He estimated the
number of Greeks in the United States
to be fully 100000. They have two
churches and three papers in Chicago.
and IL churches and 10 papers i'm the
whole country. They are rapidly be-
| coming prominent i'm the retail fruit

from Boston the designation of mod

1t is already four centuries since the

that it will not take so long to realize
the dream as it has taken to realize
the one in which julius Caesar i'll
dulged regarding a canal from Rome to
the Mediterranean. Even in his time,
200 years ago. the yellow Tiber was in
adequate to the demands made upon it
by the commerce of the Mistress of the
World which sat enthroned upon sew
Ell hills beside it's banks. The great
Caesar planned a canal which. however.
was never built. Now the proud Tiber
has become little more than a muddy

the Italian government has lust for
