QUE PRESIDENTS may suffer from too much slander and too much business, but they can at least be made doctors of law by one of the universities. F Ll HUNG CHANG should marry the empress dowager it might be a question which should die first. He is as rapid in his diplomacy as is the woman, F IT IS THE PENALTY of victory to pay the debts of the defeated nation it would be more profitable to get whipped and let her liquidate our responsibilities. THE LIBRARIAN of the Ohio state senate gets seven thousand dollars a year, and the senate has no library. A few books should be bought at once, to give him the conscience that ought to be necessary to draw his salary. HE COLLEGES have taken up the disarmament question; and we suppose if the decision is in favor of the proposition the boys will shear off their hair before every game, and kindly tender the ball, one team to another, so that there won't be any game at all.

But the better thought is that, as Schley says, there is glory enough for both. NOT FOR SHOW. A STANDING ARMY for peace purposes in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines is unavoidable. For a time it will have to number per- haps ahundred thousand men. Buta large standing army at home merely for show is not necessary, and it might come to be demoralizing. Let us have no gold lace for the mere purpose of gold lace. THE GREAT BUTCHER. WEYLER will occupy himself until further notice with watching Eng- land, and declares that he would rather lose the Philippines to this government than have England add an acre of Spanish possessions 4dja- cent to Gibraltar, The governments of Spain and the United States will rest more easily now that this dreadful man has taken his eyes away from them, Let England suffer—it is her turn. A MAN AND HIS GHOST. “T)REYFUS 1S A POWER. The whole world discusses him. He up- sets ministries and threatens governments. He is in every French official debate and makes the debaters claw and scratch one another. He is present at every festival and threatens to close the proceedings with wounds and sorrow. He breeds threats of war and threatens revolution. Can justice be refused that man? Not long. WOMEN AND WAR. AS A RESULT of the sufferings of many ol our soldiers some author- ities say it would be hard to get up a volunteer army in case of another war. But suffering and death are soon forgotten, and the girl that is left behind is always with us, to cheer the volunteer off and wel- come him when he re- turns. Possibly if there were no women there would be no war; but we must take things as they are. A NOBLE EX- : AMPLE. THE HOTEL that re- fused to serve a din- ner toa prize-fighter ought to be so well patronized by ladies and gentlemen that it can easily pay the fifty thousand dollars, damages, that have been sued for by the aggrieved person, and have plenty of money left. If the’suit goes against it its friends ought to order an auction of some small piece of furniture, after the manner of the friends of Zola, and bid in the article for the full amount. AND THIS FROM AN EX-SENATOR! SUPPOSE PEOPLE who question the justice or constitutionality of a certain law were to knock down the officer who tries to enforce the law—"knock him down on the spot,” as Senator Hill suggests? We should have no law whatever, every man enacting himself into a higher court against all law and all order. Why is it that men in political debate let themselves be carried so far that they can never get back to their own dignity and common sense? THE SCUDDER REFORM. THE REVEREND MR. SCUDDER of a Jersey city church is doing a good thing in his effort to abolish the wall-flower sadness and humiliation by teaching his young people how to dance. The girl or boy of social inclinations who cannot dance has many an unpleasant hour in places where they should most enjoy themselves, and the result of it is bad frequently to the point of profanity and other wickedness. Give these young persons a fair chance to be graceful and happy. comicbooks.com
