TAT have their favorite sons, but William McKinley is the favorite of the nation. MB: FORAKER is sincere in his sup- port of McKinley because he can't help himself, GOVERNOR MORTON in the hands of his friends is in danger of getting himself choked half to death. ATRIOTISM brings to John Sherman the fire of youth. He will presently be known as the country’s grand young man, F A REPR TATIVE at Wash- ington of a foreign power possesses a soul it seems to us he ought to have the right to say so. POINT FOR THE BOERS.-It is true that the uitlanders pay heavy taxes, but they get the money out of the gold- mines of the country. MB. CLEVELAND thinks for his part by Jove! that some of the home- mission money had better be used in the United States senate. eee HUMBERT is very anxious to hang on to Abyssinia, but it may be sus- pected that he doesn’t propose to participate in the necessary dying. NE LOOKS BACK at the threatened assassination in the Kentucky legislature and its conclusion as he does at the Corbett-Fitzsimmons statesmanship. F THE PRIZE-FIGHTERS might use their diplomacy in our interna- tional emergencies there would never be a conclusion, but there would never be a fight FOGRAPHICALLY Ohio and Maine go well together, and we feel authorized to say that Brother Reed would make a good second on onal ticket.

[7 18 ODD, but the war with China brought Japan within the list of civilized nations. May the same be said in behalf of Menelek and his country? The traveler who was lost came to a gallows occupied by a dead man. “Thank God!" he exclaimed passionately, “I am at least in a country that has the blessings of civilization.” THE MISFIT EGG, THE HEN that hatches ducks is filled with unutterable surprise, which is followed by intense disgust as the ducks begin to swim. Could we search the gizzard of the hen we might find something akin to the feelings of Uncle Levi Morton when he finds that the eggs he has sent to the Platt market have hatched nothing but Reed chickens. THE MCKINLEY. OTHING IS LIKELY to happen to drive William McKinley from the position he occupies at the front. It is along time to the nomination, but he has only to hold his own, He has won it through some judicious work, but mostly because he is the natural choice of his party. There is enthusiasm back of that man and it means to have its own way. THE MAN WITHOUT A COUNTRY. [7 1S URGED by an English paper printed in this country that if the Nicaragua canal is built with American money it will inevitably fall into the hands of the English, as did the Suez canal after it had been built as a French enterprise The Rochester Democrat says the editor that says this is not only wrong but is a tory. Let us not use such severe terms Let us rather say that he prevaricates and s a copperhead. OTHER FIELDS OF BLOOD. HE SOUDAN and Abyssinia have the power of new complications in which France and Russia find themselves arrayed against England, Germany, Austria and Italy. Behold what a fire a little matter kindleth! and the Turkish atrocities in Armenia are again forgotten. It is a good thing to be on this side of the Atlantic. We can enjoy ourselves with our ferocity, without the slightest danger of the com- plications which mean great wars. PASSING OF THE BOSS. THE BOSSES are losing their power. It is demonstrated more and more every year that the support of a boss is a detriment to the man who has it. The people look upon it as an affront to their intelligence and their desires. Senator Hill has had his lesson in this state, and Mr, Platt, whatever may be his apparent power at this moment, will get his at St. Louis. Republicans especially are their own masters, and they are going to run their national campaign themselves. elervatin’ in de daily NATIONAL BIRDS. GIVE THE HEN anew comb. Give her eggs the colors of the rain- bow. Observe the shining of her back, which sheds the rain as human nature ought to shed its sorrows and disappointments. More tail- feathers to her glory and more music to her voice. There are three na- tional birds—the eagle, the turkey, and the hen; and of these three the hen is greatest during the Easter period. Live the great and good hen! She sometimes lays two eggs a day— At Easter she lays three, MILITARY SNOBS. ANT LANG of West Point married the daughter of a com- ry sergeant and in consequence has been ostracized by the of the Point and fairly driven out of the army, while a hospital- steward has been dismissed for acting as best man at the wedding. A curious part of this business is that the ostracism is openly presented as proper and not to be avoided, and it is complacently accepted by army authorities. A more curious part of it is that the public seems not to be surprised or indignant at the miserable snobbery. comicbooks.con
