VERY FAMILY of four in Ireland there are four kinds of poli- NE IN res ina third It may be well to remember it. WILSON BISSELL is a good man who weighs two hundred and fifty pounds. JUEcE GRESHAM beli term, SEVERAL THINGS are worse than the crinoline, but we don’t know what they are. AS TO HIS POLITICS the new secre- tary of state may be congratulated on his general utility. A FAT CABINET doesn’t necessarily have stuffed wit, and there were some sharp points in the make-up of Jack Fal- staff.

AN EXCHANGE says Mr. Cleveland should have put a populist in his cabinet. It has evidently forgotten all about Judge Gresham. Me. GLADSTONE ought to have alluded to the Irish home rule we have here. Every Irishman has an office and is going to be a king. [7 1S MUCH in Hoke Smith's favor that he is a journalist, but his opposition to David B. Hill is the main thing that made a statesman of him. . T knows now, according to the Chicago News- Record, “just where he can put his hand on Mr. Hill when he wants him.” Let us suggest an amendment. He doesn’t want to get burnt, and he knows just where to keep his hands off. THE PRESIDE SILVER, WE HAVE five hundred million dollars in silver in the treasury, and the purchase and the minting go on, Hasn't this government done enough for the silver men for the present? Is there any other business interest that asks the government to impose upon the people with such amazing, such dangerous extravagance? The fable of the mill that ground UP TO DATE. “* Kracious! vouldn't Gristopher Golumpus shmile eef he the salt of the sea, and thereby sunk the vessel that harbored it, must have been not so much fable as truth. A WOMAN'S RIGHT. WHEN THE LAW goes so far as to say what apparel ladies shall wear or omit it had better regulate the hours at which ladies shall retire at night and arise in the morning, the amount they shall spend for an Easter bonnet, and the answers they shall give to proposals of mar- riage. We cannot do without the law; but it had better attend to its own business. A woman will wear what’she pleases. The only question re- lates to her ability to raise the necessary funds. BLOOD WILL TELL. ‘THE ADMISSION of Kansas as a state was preceded by riot and bloodshed, and the extreme excitement over the question of the ex- tension of slavery which soon brought about the civil war. We have now in that state a new party, and it is fighting the old Republican party, which began in 1856, the question of power being the only one immedi- ately at issue. Kansas has the blood for any trying situation, and it may in time become as famous for desperate emergencies as South Carolina. A PRINCE OF MUGWUMPS, UDGE GRESHAM, according to J. S. Clarkson, was’ ‘willing and anxious to accept the Minneapolis nomination on the platform of the Republican party. Afterward he was half willing to run for president on the populist platform. Since then he has announced that while he has left the Republican party he isitot a Dem- ocrat. It is a natural conclusioa'that he stands on the Gresham platform, which has in view the interests of Judge Gresham and nothing else whatever.” Thetefore we must call him a mugwump, and look with sad surprise on the Demoeratic party because it has no man fit for the position which he holds. SMITH IN PHILOLOGY. ‘s}{OKE” IS SHORT for Hoboken, we think. The Sun's contraction, “Hokus,” is obviously wrong, because it should be spelled with a c if itis that kind of attachment, the entite word ‘Being Hocus-pocus. It is well known that the Smiths came originally from Weehawken, where indeed many of them remain; and the changes of pronunciation between New Jersey and Georgia are notoriously alarming. We may be grateful, however, that Hoke gives his Smith without any trimmings on it. In that respect he has the sturdy and wholesome wisdom of his far-off uncle John, who officiated with dis- tinguished success as the first sweetheart of the late Pocahontas, daughter of his late majesty Powbatan of Virginia. IRISH UNION AND HARMONY. BUT FOR THE MURDERS in Phoenix park Ireland would have had home rule several years ago. Mr, Gladstone was preparing the way and Irishmen were blocking it. Too many Irishmen are making money out of Irish politics. Too many are traitors to everything and everybody but themselves. There are too many Irish organizations whose main purpose it is to collect funds. The stories of the O’Mahoneys are too numerous. Mr. Gladstone hopes for a united Ireland, but the Ulster Protestants are as bitter against it as if the Catholic majority were com- posed wholly of assassins. There may be that kind of union, but there won't be an unbroken head in it three months after its consummation, WHAT!—A NEW PARTY? THE MUGWUMP EDITORS are in raptures over Mr. Cleveland's alleged efforts to form a new party. The old Democratic party was good enough for the mere purpose of electing Mr. Cleveland, but now there must be reform. The process of reform involves, in tleir view, the keeping of Democrats out of office and the putting of mugwumps in office. Well, the Democracy are rather hungry. They have had but one president in thirty-two years, and would like some of the honors they think they recently won, But let us hope that they will be patient and good. Of course, if the creation of the new party involves the destruction of the one that elected Mr. Cleveland that will be a first-rate thing for the rest of us and doubtless a good thing for the country at large. comicbooks.com
