THE WORST THING about a people's party is that the people won't have anything to do with it. sae Doctor KOCH must have taken some of his own lymph. Gone to mect Blue-glass Pleasonton, ene CONSUL CORTE has too large a mouth. He might swallow him- self wjth it and have only half a bite.

It appears that Mr. Watter- son, who was in New York at the time to learn the price of cheese, had written a letter of instructions to the convention and forgotten to mail it. WHY THEY ARE GREAT. HE ‘WIDOW of John A. Logan was asked,“ What do the politicians at Washington say about the quarrel of the women’s world-fair com- mittee?” “The big politicians,” she answered, ‘say not one word. They are too wise to get mixed up in a women’s quarrel.” And therein is a pretty good explanation of the methods that make big politicians. That kind of man has no time to waste on small business. THE RAG-TAGS AND BOB- TAILS. “FHE DEMONSTRATIONS of the gathering at Cincinnati that heralded the people’s party into life were not so much resolutions of martyrdom as the demands of financial hunger and an attempt to loot, tempered by some proposal of law. The representatives of the various constituencies were inspiredgby different motives. The southern delegates were dis- appointed at the creation of a new political force, when they had been sitting on this alliance egg so patiently to hatch out chickens only for the Demo- cratic pot-pie. It is absolutely certain that no new project will loosen the south from the Bourbon snubbing-post to which it has so long been tied. The labor question is too dangerous to be entertained. Its agitation would add increased cost to the colored man’s efforts and re-enforce with increased impertinence the demands of negro labor now successfully sub- ordinated by saltpetre and gun. barrel. So the people’s party, from Georgia to Virginia, may be con- sidered as Democracy with an added Christian name —a super- fluous baptism, not a new birth. The advocates of the free-trade policy welcome the projection of any party as a possible disinte- grant of Republican strength. Vic- tory is anticipated not from the strength of their own majority but from a causeless mutiny in the forces of their opponent. ft that Natalie, late of Servia, is the woman at the bottom of it. RICHARD CROKER came It js likely the Democratic plat form will be so patched as to utilize some of the new planks sawed out at Cincinnati. This transfer of ® home just in time to begin running the Tammany two-thirds of the state government again. E DO SUSPECT that Mr. ~ Blaine knows what he is about so exactly well-that he requires no outside information. rs 24 THE FARMERS of Connecticut would like the government to buy all their wooden nutmegs and hold the same for a rise. see T WAS WELL to commute the sentence of the Navassa rioters. It would have been better to pardon them and give them a vote of thanks, JHE HILL CLUB at Utica will hereafter be known as the Jones club. Edward F. is a fine Brutus, but he ought to be arrested for concealing his poniard. MAY NEW IDEAS were discussed in the recent convention at cinnati; but the more important one was entirely overlooked. We refer to the proposition for a national lunatic asylum. cee PORTUGAL is to have a crisis sooner or later, It may result in a pre~ mature republic and a subsequent revival of the monarchy, after the manner of Spain. Because that is usually the way over there. cee HE OTHER POWERS called upon by the Italian government to ad- judicate the differences with regard to the destruction of the jury system in New Orleans have not responded. Are their majestic ears mere receptacles for cotton? JERRY'S LETTER. ; : “Drax MUDDER—I won't be home next week, for I got de grip most Pants also to the reorganized con- tee dreadfal yesterday, and de doctor says I won't be opt for ten days. JERRY. communist free silver and railroad and telegraph purchase timber will be expected to transport the occu- struction. +t Donnelly, the Minnesota iconoclast, who has tried to smother Shake- speare with Bacon, did not hesitate to dynamite the constitution with socialistic explosives. Never was a gathering, outside an asylum, so wild in its lunacy. The railroads and telegraphs are to be relegated to the people either by practical confiscation or purchase. If by stealing, where will the precedent end? Not until the idle tramp is as well housed as the thrifty workman. If by purchase, at abstract cost, by dry appraisement, it would load the country with a public debt four times as large as the heaviest burden of the war. ery’man, woman and child, rich and poor, would owe over sixty dollars. tate t Why should the toiling agriculturist remote from and unhelped by facilities of rail, the fisherman near the sea, the worker in the factory, pay for cheapening the transfer of the product of western farms to a European market? Why should the serving-man and maid, the mason in the quarry, the carpenter at the bench, the plowman in the field, contribute to cheapen telegrams for the benefit of the merchant and city manipulator of products? Would not this new engine of government power, with an army of employés greater in number than all the battalions under Grant, be a dangerous and irremovable force, only mustered out one at atime by death? ttt Law can, and will, through the reasonable demands of the people, regulate and control corporations of its creation. The tyranny of social- ism can never be driven from its grip. Free silver, free transportation, free money, mean political free-booting. Jens comicbooks.cgm !
