THE NEW YEAR is looked to with confidence to begin, if not to com- plete, the Nicaragua canal. THE NINETY-AND-NINE are safe in the century fold, and the miss- ing one will get there next tine.

THE _coLor LINE is not drawn in Ha- wail; so that any man or wo- man is as good as another, if not considerably better. eee ARCH is equal toany- thing bad, and therefore the prediction that the world will come to an end in that month is received with alarm.

CCOXEY says silver is dead and McKinley and prosperity killed it. Mr. Bryan is fortunate in losing the support of Coxey, but silver won't die until several years after its funeral. ‘HE CLEANING of Havana had a good start with the removal of Blanco from the town, and the absence of his epithets creates a silence so pronounced that you can hear a pin drop if you want to. He8son refuses an offer of fifty thousand dollars for a series of ‘ect- ures, declaring that he doesn’t want to make commerce of his Merri- mac reputation. Very few men can afford a conscience as cruelly tender as that. A GIRLS’ SCHOOL jn a Maryland town is in an uproar because the * instructor in physical culture insists that the students shall wear bloomers. If the instructor had insisted that they should not wear bloom- ers they would have scratched his eyes out.

Dox CARLOS ought not to yearn in vain for the kingship of Spain. If the Spanish governmen: might have its way it would make him a new-year's present of it, and flee from its responsibility as eagerly as chil- dren just out of school. THE EDUCATED BULLY. AZING was recently voted down at a mass-meeting of Princeton stu- dents, Nobody has ever shown, we think, that college bullies are better than the men of their kind outside of college walls; and it is amaz- ing, when one reflects on it, that all the argument of a century against bullying should have had so little effect. And foot-ball is so different! 9 1940 AN HONORED OUTLAW. TANNER of Illinois claims as governor to be higher than any law, from the national supreme court to the home grand jury. Giving political honors to men like that is a high crime on the part of the voters, who knew him before they elected him as a thoroughly bad man. They have the remedy in their own hands and will doubtless use it; but meanwhile how is the state of Illinois disgraced ! SUPERFLUOUS INFORMATION. AT A DINNER of high-school teachers in Chicago a local official made a speech to the effect that the teachers must not believe all they read in the newspapers. If the advice was needed it was a reflection on the high schools which was far from complimentary. If it was not needed it was an insult to the intelligence of the teachers who manage them. Be- cause they print only Chicago newspapers Chicago, LIBERTY IN DEATH, THE D1 CHARGE of the Christian- science woman indicted for manslaughter for assisting Harold Frederic out of the world vindicates a man's right to go hence by some method of his own selec- tion. If law is to regulate these things it must diagnose cases, select doctors, provide med cines, and hire and discharge nurses.“ This is the first time lever died in my life,” remarked Smith in response to some instructions by his wife, “and I propose to go at it in my own way.” FRANCE AS A BUSYBODY. ONSON, British ambassador to France, plainly remarks to that coun- try that if she doesn’t stop sticking pins into the British government there will be war and it will be carried into Egypt, and perhaps Africa. The habit of pin-pricking has become chronic with France; witness her persistence in the case of the Panama canal. Let us all indorse the peace proclamation of the czar and cry out as with one voice, “Every nation its own pincushion.” in IN IT. Me daughter Mary Ann has practiced so har-rd fer "NINETY- NINE. UBA BEGINS THE NEW YEAR free. She may work out her own destiny to her own glory, subject to the authority of the United States for a time; but her people are for annexation, and it will be found eventu- ally that that is the only road to peace and prosperity. And the rest of the world presents itself with a new map—somewhat in embryo, but with bold strokes in places, pointing to a certainty of situation. The Philippines will come to us, China will be divided between the great powers. The days of the sultan are perhaps not numbered, but accident or circumstance will some day send him out of the swim to look, as an uninterested spectator, at the world as it goes by. It has been a year of blood. Whether of progress will be variously decided ; but our flag carries civilization wherever it goes. comicbooks.com
