LAST WORDS of John K. Porter—"1 object.” REGARDING the vice-presidency—" He who runs may.—Re/d.” H. MAID of Chicago continually remarks, speaking of the world’s- fair fund, “1 can’t.” SPEAKING OF COHOES, when Dem- ocrats,fall out honest men get their certificates of election. THE HEALTH of Mr. Blaine is superb. Mr. Muldoon 1s not training him; he is training Mr. Muldoon. UESTION—If Cleveland is nomi- nated what will the Democrats of this state gain by his defeat? MB: FUNSTON of Kansas has en- deavored to show, with some suc- that he is a probibitionist and a MB. PULITZER is getting up a new fire-extinguisher, and proposes to make his first experiment with it on the orthodox hell. THE DIFFERENCE between Hill and Cleveland will be decided by the masses. They will split the same and take Harrison. PATTI DISINHERITED a nephew because of his love for another man's wife, and when Nicolini heard of it he smote his breast and seemed agitated. eee wid de musick.” EW-YORKERS who remember Grant find much consolation in re- flection upon the Washington monument and the tomb to the memory of George's mother. THE EDITOR of a paper down south regrets that Senator Hill wasn’t more explicit on the vital questions of the day. The senator, sir, was tall 1g ancient, not modern, politics. HE FICKLENESS of woman has been the theme of poets and philosophers for centuries, but what is that in comparison with the treachery of Gorman?—D. B. Hill. T HAS OCCURRED to many editors that the murderer Milbank ought to have been cowhided while here, because there isn’t a lash nough to reach him where he is now. ETWEEN THE CLERGY and Tammany Dr. Parkhurst is be- twixt two fires, but it isa great thing to have an approving con- science. Probably the good man has that, but he must see no more of that peculiar circusing. A LITTLE TALK BEFORE THE WEDDING, “Now, Howdy, when we walks up de ile, doan’ walk too fast, becoze I wants t' shake dis diamon’ pon-pon on mah haid in time CLERGYMAN of this city, foreign-born, says he has not taken out naturalization papers because he doesn’t want to be identified with such a wicked place. Some day this gentleman's indignation will get so much the better of him that he'll refuse to draw his salary. NO DALLIANCE, BENNY. THE REPORT is repeated that President Harrison does not care to run again, and that he will not run again unless he is the unanimous choice of the Minneapolis convention. The president does not often indulge in humor or prevarication, and we warn him that in this case it is dan- gerous. Why, Mr. President! if this report is correct there will be swarms of candidates, and some of them must inevitably commit suicide from disappointment. THE LAND WE LOVE. HE ANARCHISTS of France hardly deserve mention along with the socialists of Germany and the nihilists of Russia; but the three organizations furnish much comfort to the calm, even, just and humane condition of things here. We have our mugwumps; but their egotism is that of the gentleman, and they blow up nothing and make it their main principle to fight fairly and honorably. As the editor of the New York Herald once remarked, while temporarily in this country, “ We are the stuff.” DEMOCRATIC TALKEE-TALKEE. ‘THE POLITICAL WISDOM of the Horld is so weak that it can't support its self-consciousness or wink its own eye. It is difficult to tell which are the most damaging to the Democratic party, the able malice and the open treachery of the Sun or the unconscious stupidity and the continuous blundering of the World. The Herald's political views are always a sweet and harmless surprise; but the newspaper voice of the Democratic party of this city is an unholy terror to every member of that organization. THE COMING MAN. ROBERT TODD LINCOLN means what he says in positively declining to be the candidate of his party for presi- dent. He distrusts himself with the mod- esty of his father, and he is wise enough to know that no man can successfully run for our chief office merely as a father’s son. But he is making a fine record. He has done no unwise thing, and his temp- tation to be unwise has been great. He is respected abroad for himself, as he is here. The impression is growing that he is a great man, and if he lives the time will come when he will lead his party to victory. JUSTICE OF THE BALLOT. HE CONSCIENCE of the ballot-box asserts itself for the correction of every mistake. Bad men are elected to office, but as the people learn them they are elected out of it. No sys- tem is perfect, but our system ‘is as near perfection as human nature can get. The downfall of Hill and the later results in Jersey City and in local elections throughout ‘the country are a vindication of the system such as has always come, and is always sure to come, in every emergency. Put your faith in the ballot, and if that fails put your faith in nothing that belongs to this world. THE INSTINCT OF CRIME. MEDICAL AUTHORITY says Deeming, who has killed by whole- sale, is “an instinctive criminal.” That is doubtless true, and he is entitled to all possible charity; but the instinct of safety which belongs to the people, and especially to women and children, is entitled to some consideration, and his life should be taken as a matter of general protec- tion, It has ‘cost the state of Massachusetts a great deal of money to take care of Jesse Pomeroy, who likewise has the instinct of murder, for thirty years, and the life is a curse.to him and to everybody associated with him. Deeming will probably be legally executed. If he isn’t the instinct of necessity will probably put an end to him, though lynching in England is in most cases considered ungenteel. comicbooks.com
