HE JUDGE is astonished to learn that some reporters have been hurt bya page of caricature devoted to them the other day, Well, if they can’t take as well as give they must be very young and tender. ‘The better they caricature the more successful they are; and the doctor who repudi- ates his own medicine is a quack. om ot AS BENJAMIN HARRISON comes east to run the government young Russell Harrison goes west to run the Helena (Montana) Record, daily and weekly, It would be pleasant for most young men situated as he is to be pulled through several years at the end of father’s coat but he has been used to walking on his own leather, and prefers that kind of manliness and independence.

F THERE is anybody who sheds tears over Grover Cleveland he had better cork his eyes. To have been sheriff and mayor of Buffalo, governor of New York, and president of the United States within a few y glory enough, particularly as Grover has a goodly number of years to live and enjoy the glory. He is only fifty-two years old; and what a long time he has before him in which to grow garrulous and have the satisfaction, as Father Alcott would put it, of the was. GET OUT-GET OUT! (eTHE MUGWUMPS must go,” says a leading Republican politician, Yea, and. verily, and much besides. And if there is a Democrat in federal office after the 4th of March who hasn’t sent in his signation, to take effect as soon as his place can be filled, he oughi to have the boot rather than the courtesy of the new government.

MANY of the conspicuous and leading newspapers of the state have indorsed the suggestion of the JUDGE on the disfranchisement of the vote-seller, and have added their argument and advocacy for its incor- poration in the ballot-reform bill now.before the legislature of this state. It is to be hoped that this clearly expressed conviction of a prompt neces- sity will have some weight with the representatives who are delegated to carefully consider the most effective methods demanded by public opinion. It is conceded that the excessive expenses attending a political canvass are now so considerable that nominations are narrowed to the personal ability of the candidates to “shoulder the cost,” not only for the proper, but, by inference, the doubtful, expenditures. Political competency is therefore not so much measured by capacity as by cash, and the lessened candidates for the race can only venture on the course when girt by a golden band.
