THE GREAT American novel will not stop in the middle and its main purpose will not be the breaking of its readers’ hearts and the extrac- tion of their worst curses. So, as things look now, the great Ameri novel will never be written, HE CLERGYMAN of Hoboken who tried to prevent a lecture by Ingersoll is respectfully reminded of Artemus Ward's remark re- the puritans— "They came here to worship in their own way and to stop others worshiping in theirs.” gard Par—" Look at th’ hathen comin’ through th’ earth, assed a law t' kape thim yeller divils out av th’ counthry, they'd git in some way.” WOLVES IN POLITICS. will print a book relating her politica. experiences and give it the title “Among the Wolves.” Before her reformation the lady trained and quarreled with the populists, and the book ought there- fore to have some interesting revelations, Let us hope that it will be suf- ficiently remunerative to keep the wolves from her door forevermore. R FRANK SCOTT’S BRAINS. OB HEDGES, according to the New York Press. “has more brains in his little finger than Francis M. Scott has in his entire system.” We don’t know about that. Mr. Scott has a large system and his brains are very much scattered. We should like to see a competitive examina- tion. Will somebody get a drum and rattle those particles together from his boots to his neck-tie ? CURIOUS. ANY DEMOCRATS and ail Republicans voted for Mayor Strong, and it does seem unreasonable for him to give most of his offices to- mugwumps, who are not political fish, flesh nor fowl. Of course, it is done for the good of the service; but are we to believe that because a man believes in his party he is necessarily unfit for political honors? Of course, there is Platt; but must honest party men be ignored because Platt isn’t dead? BRIBERY IN RUSSIA. THE CZAR proposes to pension authors and artists. That is an open bid for their consciences, for of course no. author or artist who does not praise the little father will get a penny, even if he escapes the censorship which is created to prohibit his work. As much genius will go to Siberia under this liberality as before, and the genius that gets a pension will be marked as a purchasable article worth even less than the price it brings. EQUALITY AS TO OFFICES. HERE IS A REVIVAL of the old complaint that the foreign represent- atives of this government do not get sal- ary enough to enable them to entertain Proportionately with the government's dignity, They have to spend largely of their own money, and a contemporary I: ments that therefore only rich men can serve us abroad. That is the case toa considerable extent as to home offices, It seems sad, but the contemporary fails to say how it can be remedied. It never has been, and probably never will be. But there is one consolation. This is a free country, and it is every.man’s privilege to get rich just as fast as he can. If he can’t, why, there are thousands of good things that are beyond his reach, and it really can’t be helped Regor'! FIGHTING PAT. S BETWEEN a parade and-a fight an Irishman prefers both; and it far safer, on the whole, to grasp a bull by its:two horns than by y one of them. This Irishman is generous in his combativeness, too. He bad as soon fight for another as for himself. He has done much ting, first and last, for this nation, and it seems a pity that he cannot succeed in his long struggle for his own. In that case the green island would see the biggest civil war this side of 1865, and eventually there wouldn't be enough men left to run the government. What books and paintings of heroic deeds the rapacity and other meanness of Eng'and has forbidden us! We shall never forgive her, and it would be a pleas - ure, not to call it a religious duty, to whip her again. CHARITY OF THE CLOTH. HOPE it will not be necessary to establish a censorship against the license of the pulpit, but it sometimes abuses its freedom quite as much as the institution occasionally called an unscrupulous press. In Rochester a clergyman speaks of a recent public dinner as an assemblage of rum-drinkers. Another talks of the same dinner under the title * From the hog-pen to heaven.” In Hoboken a clergyman invites the law to stop a proposed lecture by Colonel Ingersoll. And in New York a clergyman refers to the Gould-Castellane marriage in terms of libelous abuse, though it is obvious that the marriage is not a matter in which he or his hearers are personally interested. Are these gentlemen seeking notori- ety, or can it be possible that they do not know better? oO comicbooks.com
