SAM to the British lion— op twisting my coat tails” GPEAKING of the Monroe doctrine, Britannia rules the wave and this gov- ernment waives the rule. E DON'T WANT to fight, but we hadn't better break our necks in running away from any bully. THE AVARICE that unies France and Germany in behalf of the robbery of Japan is unspeakably astonishing. J RRY SIMPSON saved fifteen thou- sand dollars white in congress. So that's the use he puts his stockings to, is it? BLOOMERS. a newspaper tells us. have become so numerous that they no longer provoke comment. Ab, well; that is the beginning of the end of bloomers. HE EDITOR of the Albany Argus wants to be: a pair of bloomers. u le wifi town?" “What!” as Paddy said when he was ad- Orricer—" Can you read?” vised to buy a trunk for himself, “and go Froweky Firups—" Naw; naked ?* got me picter in agin dis week. AN AMERICAN looked at the sultan through his spectacles, and his Oriental majesty was greatly offended. Apparently the glasses should have bern smoked TY GR asked by a tax-commissioner where she had her home, replied, “ Nowhere.” Be it ever so humble, thinks this lady, there is nothing of that kind. M* ECKELS has refused an offer of ten thousand doilars a year to be financial editor of the Chicago Times: Herald. That is pretty good evidence that he doesn’t understand finance. KANSAS a woman who wants to vote needn't give her age to the registry ; she merely testifies that she is over twenty-one will be more vores and less perjury in Kansas. Thus there HALE CAINE enjoys himself by murdering most of his deserving char- acters and so humiliating and disgracing the others that his readers do not care to know what becomes of them. As a translator of the more horrible kinds of nightmare he has no equal, and the world vught to be glad of it. FAIR WARNING. Fiowery Firtns—"' Is dere a {ree public library in dis jay THE JOHN BULL INVASION. HE CAPTURE OF CORINTO establishes a precedent under which all manner of outrage may be visited upon any South American re- public. It also suggests an understanding between all the Americas which may make some one outrage exceedingly dangerous. The bull-baiting of Nicaragua is probably the beginning of some mighty interesting history. THE LAW OF NATURE. A RESOLUTION before the Illinois legislature calls upon American women to marry Americans rather than titled foreigners. The author of it has the wisdom of the man who tries to whistle down the north wind. These things manage themselves without regard to facts, suggestions or situations, and all the legislatures in the world cannot change that uni- versal rule, CANADIAN WISDOM, A CANADIAN COMMISSION has investigated the results of probibi- tion in Maine, lowa and Kansas, and reports against prohibition for Canada. The more the prohibition the poorer the intoxicant and the larger the encouragement of sneaking and like humiliation, The commis- sion is wise. The liquors of Canada are too good and too cheap as to price to be mixed with prohibitory foolishness. REFORM THE PULPIT. FATHER PHELAN is severely criticised by the Catholic clergy for his attack on the Christian-endeavor and other Protestant societies. The clergyman who talks for sensation has too much lib- erty. His talk is malicious, narrow and mean, He hurts his pulpit, his church and his congregation. There must be a cen- sorship against this man. He is too little and too irresponsible to be permitted such hberty of outrage. THE WOLF AND THE LAMB. NGLAND makes out her bill to a little republic, for real or imaginary dam- ages, and presents it at the point of the sword. The republic must pay or fight. There is no arbitration and no respect for the objections of the menaced power. The bill may as easily be made for null- ions as for thousands. What is to prevent the capture of any small nation that Eng- land covets, if civilization does. not bring out its guns in behalf of fair play? BRITISH RIGHTS IN. NORTH AMERICA. F THE BRITISH can take charge ol custom-houses in Nicaragua by way of collecting indemnity or debt, they can do so in Honduras or in any part of South America. More than that, if they can thus secure English bond-holders they can come to this port in fighting protest against the repudiation of Erie bonds by Jay Gould and Jim Fisk; and they can take charge of almost any southern state for repudiation of bonds held by Englishmen after our civil war. LYNCH THE LYNCHERS. THERE IS A CALL for lynching at Greenville, Alabama, where a mob hanged two black women and three black men for killing a white man, It is now positively known that the victims were innocent of the murder. How, then, can justice be done without hanging the lynchers? Do they deserve any less punishment? And have they not attested their * belief that the law is insufficient for the proper punishment of anybody? There ought to be an army of white-caps for the killing of these scoun- drels. but I jes’ wanter Ifso I sue. D'ye hez Jupor. wd THE GRANDEST ARMY. THE SCHOOLS of this country are the best grand army. The military education teaches grace, promptness and obedience. It took months to discipline the volunteers in the opening days of the civil war, and dur- ing those months the struggle ought to have been fought to the end. With every boy in the public schools a soldier we have a standing army of graduates at all times, and the supply is kept ample as the years go on. It is a grand army without cost to the tax-payer and with only benefit to the scholar and the graduate. comicbooks.com
