We shall have ample proof of this di- rectly, THE ARITHMETIC is my guide and hope, for does it not in- form me that two and three are five?—G, Cleveland. LET US BE JUST. Mr. Cleve- land will make a better run than Vicky Woodhull and we don't care who knows it. JUST BACKWARDS. “Say, Gim, do you belong to de G. A. R.?" Git—" Naw; I belong to de R. A. G. THE BRETHREN were very much united at that Cooper-union meet- ing. There wasn't a dissevered fragment to be seen. THE SUFFERINGS of Bourke Cockran with his eyes and throat are hard enough without allusion to the crow on his faint and weary stomach. THE SURFACE of thought, according to Mr. Cleveland, has important truths. Yes, indeed; and further “the shallows murmur while the deeps are dumb.” A YOUNG MAN wants to know where he can learn the art of whis- tling. If he hasn't lost all his courage he might call on the Demo- cratic national committee. Me. COLUMBUS was no rainbow-chaser, and he died before he knew he had captured a continent. For the back counties were largely uninhabited and extremely remote. N ANCY HANKS has a plurality over all other candidates, and Robert Bonner will take her from the public and hide her in his private electoral horsepital as soon as he can. THE GREAT, JOKE of Jimmy Husted, that he had retired from public life, and which grew funnier as it grew older, has got the better of its author, and more’s the pity. There be smiles for it, but every smile is moistened with a tear. SOP FOR MUGWUMPS. MB. CLEVELAND sticks to the civil-service-reform foolishness. If his party thought he meant the thing he says he would lose a million votes; but it doesn’t, nor does anybody else. The sentimental hypocrisy is pretty enough to frame, for inspection by women and children; but in all practical politics it is like the God-bless-our-home embroidery over the mantel of an Irishman’s sHanty. DO NOT FORGET IT. HE REPUBLICANS of this state had better look out for the legis- lature. They can have it if they will work for it, regardless of the new and villainous apportionment, and they will lose it if they are apa- thetic about it. The plan is to send Flower to the national senate and make Sheehan the governor. Against that consummation every good citizen must protest at the ballot-box. The little blue-eyed rascal who helped to steal the senate must never have the chief office of the state he thus dishonored. THE OLD INTOLERANCE. THE MOBBING of General Weaver and Mrs. Lease at Macon, Georgia, the other day, recalls the condition of things in the south before the war, when speech was free only as it coincided with the views of those who heard it. It was a shameful exhibition of narrowness and brutality. The face of Mrs. Weaver was besmeared with a bad egg thrown by a chivalrous southron, and Weaver and Lease were treated as if they had gone south to steal slaves. Is there a place anywhere north that would be guilty of such miserable outrage ? PECK’S PRIVILEGES. T WOULD SEEM that a public officer ought to have discretion- ary authority as to the matter in- trusted to his care. If Peck cannot get evidence without disclosing the means to the evidence he must needs lose much important testi- mony. If a judge, a jury, and es- pecially a body of partisan investi- gators, are to decide as to what he may keep and what publish, his do- mestic correspondence is liable to be given to such as are curious to see it, and perhaps his love-letters, We don't care to know very much about Peck, but he is a human be- ing with some rights above those of a vassal. THAT OTHER WICKED DAVID. THE INDIGNATION of the World with regard to David Martin is quite natural. As Mr. Cleveland would say, if one must be licked one prefers to get his punishment at the hands of a man of good moral character. A man whose wife had eloped remarked resignedly, “ Well, she skipped with a gentleman, anyhow.” That Mr. Martin would -get votes in an improper manner we prefer not to suspect; but if he does the poignancy of the grief of Mr. Cleveland, who is not only better than his party but better than anybody else, will be greatly increased. Oh, it must not be, D, Martin! Get thee to sheol, or peradventure to Phila- delphia. BUILD THAT CANAL! THE NICARAGUA CANAL will some day make great politics for this country. As Grant said, and as Harrison and Cleveland say, it must be built by Americans, The Panama scheme has fortunately died without creating the disturbance that would inevitably have come with its success. No foreign power must do that work for us. The business-and political power of foreigners in South and Central America is already too great. The great principle of protection advocated by James Monroe and continued by Mr. Blaine in the pan-American congress must prevail. America for Americans. Less immigration, or no immigration not en- tirely desirable. No French, English, Austrian, Italian, Russian, Chinese, or other foreign authority here as to business or politics. There has been one French army in Mexico, and one great effort to give a French canal to Panama. All that is ended. Americans can build their own canals and take care in war or peace of their own business. ° comicbooks.com
