THE OLNEY BOOM froze itself to death in one minute. = ‘O DAN—If you run for governor, dear boy, you'll be a Lamontable failure. A GREAT CRISIS comes to the French republic only about once in three weeks now. THE TWO WINGS of the salvation army are making preparations to fly in opposite directions HE QUESTION is not whether the new wo- man has belligerent rights, but whether the new man has, THE CHIEF PUR. POSE of being a gov- ernor is to help the laud- able ambition to go to Washington, D. C. THE ITALIANS are unable to whip the Abyssinians, but are do- ing some very good fight- ing among themselves. ENATOR HILL is a cuckoo of finance re- gardless of the frequent Cleveland judgment that he can’t figure and he mustn't sing. KOGAN (of, all’at all.” thought yez wor a jackass.” HE NEWSPAPERS that predicted the failure of the popular loan are now discussing the price of putty with the utmost assiduity. MB: WHITNEY says he is not and will not be a candidate, and then casually proceeds to erect the only platform which he will consent to occupy. WHY! if Governor Morten should hear that somebody had bought him a delegate he would fold up his boom, like the Arabs, and silently steal away. KNOW of no man more adapted to political annihilation than Perry Belmont as the head of the Democratic ticket of this state. He would enjoy it so much that he would never stop to inquire as to what hurt him. PAN refers those who want less bloodshed to the six powers who agreed to manage him, And why not? They took the respon- sibility and it is their crime. If their politics forbids reform they have most of the blood on their own hands.

DANGER, MR. FLOWER! OSWELL P, FLOWER needn't look so supremely happy over his presumable escape from politics. He is a bigger man than he was a few years ago and he has a larger fortune. His party is desperate and it may put the rope of the nomination around his neck in spite of his prot- estations. We tell this man with extreme earnestness that no rich Dem- ocrat is safe. . THE WIFE PAYS ALIMONY. JUDGE GIBBONS of Chicago entered an order the other day compel- ling a wife to pay alimony to her husband pending a suit for divorce on her own complaint. That seems ridiculous enough, and yet it is a poor rule that doesn't work both ways; and, as the judge says, “the moral obligation is just the same.” Surely the new woman will get all her rights some day, and she will shed copious tears because of it. THE SPANISH ROBBERS. ‘THE ANGER of the Spaniards of Cuba and Spain against this govern- ment is a protest in behalf of the right of robbery and butchery. They have no more moral right in Cuba than they have here. They hold the island for the purpose of taxing its people to death, and the Cubans have no representation in the power that robs them. That miserable injustice is not fitting to the close of the century and it must stop. TWO SOULS. WE BEG to compliment Governor Morton on his close relations with G. W. Aldridge, who wants to be governor himself. G. W. doesn’t believe in the Tvice business, and this is a mighty poor year for that kind of foolishness any- how. We give honor to G.W. for his plainness of speech and action with re- gard to office-holding, and almost feel authorized to say that his superior at Albany is with him in heart and soul if not in his vocal utterances, FAIR PLAY FOR THE WHEELERS. [LJNDOUBTEDLY the bicycle has taken a good deal of money from the railroads, but that is no reason why the wheel should not be carried by the railroads at reasonable rates. Great enterprises are expected to accom- modate themselves to the changes brought about by business and invention, and to refuse to do so is a species of childishness certainly not contemplated by the people from whom they get their franchises. The wheel must have its place in the baggage- car, and if that vehicle is not fitted for it it can easily be made so. Qi don’t hov Oi always THE EXTRAVAGANCE OF SAFETY. LABOR ORGANIZATION, assisted by a few professional mug- wumps, recently denounced the proposition to strengthen and en- large the coast defenses. It will be remembered that the fathers and mothers were wont to do that sort of thing against Indians. They put up forts and went to large expense, when they ought to have contented them- selves with prayers and moral suasion. It was not only expensive, but it invited the opposition of the savages with whom they wanted to tive in peace, We have always remembered that against those persons. OUR SENSITIVE GOVERNOR. WE FEEL CONVINCED that the emissaries of Mr. Platt in the southern districts are spending no money for Governor Morton. The reader will have observed that Reed and some others usually get the delegates and our governor is only casually mentioned as a looker-on in—let us say Jerusalem, But Mr. Platt had better teli his representatives to be very careful. If there should arise a suspicion that Governor Mor- ton’s money had been used for the governor himself that good man would immediately write a letter of declination—and what would Mr. Platt do then, poor thing? comicbooks.com
