M®- BLAIR’S MOTTO — The HE GAINS and losses in the recent elections are so evenly distributed that there isn’t a chance to yell, and nobody wants to cry. OW THAT Diss Debar is out, we renew our allegiance to Grover Cleveland as the candidate most fitted for queen of the May.

HE BALLOTS of the farmers’- alliance men in the recent elec- tions out west were so few that they scarcely amounted to the wail of a speechless infant. AN EDITOR says of another ed- itor, "He is a wina-bag and he knows it.” He doesn’t know it. If he did he would announce it and claim credit for the original dis- covery and publication. Mr. CHOTE. (trying a new typerrite Mrs. Co” AN ITALIAN PAPER says the dollar is the American's God, and insists that Italy demand money for the killing in New Orleans. Oh, very well. Send Humbert a quarter of a dollar and stop the fuss. THE CZAR was to have been dynamited the other day; but, as usual, the assassin was so anxious to be discovered that he betrayed himself into the !:as... of the police. It was his way of escaping the nihilists. THE TRIBUNE is fifty years old. If it had nothing to commend it but its magnificent career it ought to live a thousand years more—and at a strange thing it would be to have a ited States without a New York Tribu: MB: INGALLS, clad in a red neck-tie and a duster, ostentatiously gath- ering mud on his boots, and swinging a cane, has given himself up to the raising of thunder and potatoes on his farm near Atchison. Work- ing the hardy-ycoman scheme. [8 TOPEKA, Kansas, many women voted for the Democratic candidate for mayor, while their husbands voted against him, and the Democrat was elected. We point the finger of scorn at this unspeak: Why will women insist on unsexing themselves? ple outrage.

OTS OF GOOD, straight common sense goes out of the senate with the departure of Brother Edmunds, and the same amount of honesty and ability. There is snow on that cloud-capped head, and it will long be as conspicuous as the mountains of the state he served so faithfully. . USTICE STEPHEN, who acted with the prosecution in the Maybrick case, steps down because of insanity, and is praised to the skies by his brethren of the bench; but Mrs, Maybrick, the victim of his insanity, might suffer till kingdom-come before the bench or bar would voluntarily do anything for her. THE JUDGE sentences the editor of the San Francisco Wasp to thirty days on bread and water for saying that “* William Walter Phelps, ex- minister to England and a Democrat,” wrote E. J. Phelps’s Behring-sea artizsle for the Harpers. This is merciful, because when a man makes such a blunder as that he ought to be shot. . RY WATTERSON is hard at work telling the Democratic states- men of this state what they can have if they behave and what they can’t get if they don’t. While Henry talks too much, as we have said, it #s worth a thought that any leading western Democrat would stand a better chance of carrying this state than either Cleveland or Hill, both of whom are hated too much for the Democratic enemies they have made. THE FIRST LAW. 'HE NEXT CONGRESS should pass, as its first law, an act pro- viding for the return to Europe of every immigrant whose record can- not be shown to be clear of pauper- ism and crime. If foreign govern- ments insist upon controlling the government of this country with regard to immigrants we must insist that they send us, not their criminals and paupers, but their good citizens only — men who have not endangered their safety and who will not endanger ours. WAR? USSIA AND FRANCE have joined hands. They might immediately proceed to whip Ger- many but for the question whether Austria would remain idle except to act as umpire. If Italy were to endeavor to punish us at this ure she might secure the aid of Germany and Austria, who are natural allies against the Russian-French alliance, if not against us. This situ- ation would set both continents ablaze; but, while the anticipated spec- tacle is amusing, not to say exciting, it is far too early to ring the alarm and bring out the engines. This meanwhile is certain — this government will stand for itself against all foreign threats or demands, and the people will stand by the government in both peace and war.” sir) —"* She's awfully slow.” THE MONEY OF THE STATE, T IS SAD that a judge with a salary of six thousand dollars a year should at his death have left his family penniless. It is evidence that the judge was an honest man, and argument in favor of the proposition that the state should provide for the family to some extent. Yet how many, many men die leaving their families helpless; and if the rule of state help were to prevail in their cases—and if in one why not in all? the state would be speedily bankrupt.— It is proposed that a large amount of the money returned to the state by the general government be added to the Grant fund. That amounts to a state appropriation, and it was proposed that the monument be paid for by voluntary contributions. We are glad to see a southern paper, the Charleston News and Courier object to the proposition and insist that the fund be a national one, to which it declares every southern state will be glad to contribute — The money of the state belongs to the people of the state. It is not to be used for any purpose of sentiment. Benevolence is an individual matter, and blessed is he who gives the most out of his own pocket. comicbooks.com
