Few, we think, would look on pie as a deadly weapon-we mean when applied externally. of course. and not internally. Sometimes a pie. wen To- cated "in our midst" as the saying is, may be almost bad as a stick of dynamite. Its presence in. ones inside causes more disturbance among the internal arrangements of the or dlnary eater than would a live frog. This of course. is not intended to ap- ply to the pie as a family. but only to some of the individual members of the cult A properly made specimen. taken in at the proper time and with Intelligent moderation, Is very nearly the crown of alimentary enjoyment.
 As weapon of offense however. tho pie has not usually been looked on as deadly or dangerous. If applied hot 1t might be unpleasant. and we have seen some specimens that looked as though they might do as much execu- tion as a catapult if directed with force and precision. Up in New Jersey not long since woman broke her hus- bands skull by throwing an apple pie at him. and the courts threatened at one time to list pies among deadly weapons and bar them as they would pistols and razors. but fortunately the proof was submitted that the pie was baked in a hard and heavy pan and in her anger and hurry she neglected to disengage the pie from it but ap- piled pan and all to his head This evidence saved pies from the condem- nation of the jaw.

SUPPLEMENTARY TO THE SOUTH.


 E. In the current number of The North American Review. a writer who signs himself "A National Democrat pro- mounds the question. Has the conserv ative South a Presidential candidate?' The author of the article is described by he editor of The Review as prom inent New York Democrat of large business interests in both the North and South. one who has lived among 9outherners and has always manifest cd loyalty and devotion to the Demo- cratic Party.
 Whatever one may think of the ar gument of the paper urging as this does upon the Southern people the pro- priety of putting forward a candidate of their own. the reasons assigned must appeal pleasantly to Southern sensibilities. The Presidency Is open h a candidate from the South" he insists, as the home of a conservative race with an immense stake In the material and moral welfare of the country. It has been more than sixty years since a President was chosen from this section, James K. Polk in N1S44, and today a geographical area of the Union containing 793.0O0 square miles and a population of more than 23.0OO, ,O00. after the lapse of sixty years from Folks time. finds itself by GUS tom and prescription denied in public opinion the right even to offer can didate for the highest office in the Gov ernment. ''The brave men of the South" the writer says. have a right to demand, and they should demand h the Presidential year of 1908, that tAis disability be forever removed, that they no longer be constrained to ac- cept with unauestioning faith and Joy alty the candidates the Northern Dem ocrats may offer to their suffrages, and that the pathway to the White House shall once more be opened to their statesmen.
 The Advertiser has had occasion a number of times to discuss the eligi- bility of Southern man as candi- date for the Presidency, and we shall not resume the discussion at this mo- ment We welcome. however, any pub lie expression in influential quarters and all efforts of any kind whatsoever that have for their object the breaking down, once for all. if il might be. the undoubted prejudice still existing against the South.
