THEY ARE HAV- ING revival meet- ings “for men only” in Iowa. In our opin- ion the women ought to be saved too. PHYsiclaNns in this town occupy more mansions than any other class. They have adopted the old suggestion, “Physi- cian, heel thyself.” SENATOR MUR- PHY will be re- membered for his vote for free silver and his vote against the ratifi- cation of the peace treaty. For the rest there is an aching void. WHY HE FAILED. MB: KEELY was a person of large imagination. If he had known as much of the unknown as he imagined he would have been a great man. He,might have been as great a preacher as Talmage, and told us all about heaven and its sanitary system. He was honest; but he was poetic and he lacked information. TOO TRUE. BRIBERY IS ALLEGED in several of the senatorial deadlocks, and it is offered as a reason why national senators should be elected directly by the people. We believe. however, that nobody offers the proposition that there is no bribery at the ballot-box. Though, to be sure, the latter is not so impressive in size or so conspicuous. HISTORY REVIVED. [F GORMAN and Chairman Jones will examine their hands they will find blood on them, and so far from being able to wash it off it will expand until the whole Democratic party is made to wear the color of it. It is the Democratic part of the story of ‘sixty-one-'sixty-five over again. There were plenty of Democrats in the army, but their party was led by fools and traitors. i WHICH CLASS KILLED HIM? COLORADO MINISTER died after having been treated first by allo- paths, next by homozopaths, and next by hypnotists, and each class declares that he was killed ky one or both of the others. It isa pity that the poor man wasn't a spiritist, so that he might return by me- dium and settle the consequent war which is going to cost some lives and reputations. EQUALITY. WOMEN WHO ASK for leni- ency in the cases of women who murder forget to judge crime according to its mild- ness or monstrosity. The persons killed are wronged just as much by a woman- as by a man-murderer, and the crime is the more re- volting because of the sex of the person guilty of it. No; if we are to 5 Lay THEVALLANDIG. HAM of ‘ninety- nine is Mr. Gorman of Maryland, They used to call that kind of man, a copperhead, but Mr. Gorman has had his teeth pulled. CCECIL RHODES joins the czar and Mark Twain in a desire for peace. What we want, he says, is a union of English-speaking peoples. Apparently the Dutch are omitted. . Tux ovck—"" I never saw any one THE peake—* Can you wonder at *sQPIT ON THE JEWS!" is a common ejaculation in the streets of Paris. So much of that kind of fighting has been done that the nation ought by this time to be out of ammunition. . MB. CROKER is a great admirer of Napoleon. He was a great genius, thinks Mr. Croker, “but he did not know when to stop.” Nothing could be truer than that; but he finally learned, thanks to Wellington. YOUNG DR. TALMAGE, son of his father, says he has noticed that the average woman has a higher intelligence than the average man. The conclusion is logical from his point of view, for were it not for women the church would have a hard time of it. se . GENERAL MERRITT spoke for expansion not long ago. The Roch- ester Union says he thereby violated military propriety and “con- temptuously impugned the constitution of the United States.” The mis- erable wretch! Cover his mouth with court-plaster and hang him up to dry. : IN THE KLONDIKE, i have equality the wo- man must have the right of punishment as well as privilege. mut on so many airs as that old hen.” er, with eggs at a dollar apiece?” AVARICE TO THE GRAVE. THE PRIESTS of Cuba charged so much for graves that only people worth money could afford to die. The Cubans now demand free graves, and they should have them just as fast as they are prepared to occupy them. he fact suggests an avarice belonging to Spanish rule which is equaled only by the heartlessness which looked with indifference on the starvation of thousands of men, women and children. A BLOW AT THE PROFESSION. THE INDICTMENT of two Chicago lawyers for negotiating for the sale of stolen bonds is not fair. They got the bonds from clients whom they had in the regular course of their business saved from the pen- itentiary. What is the criminal difference between bonds and cash? Had they been paid in cash, even cash that had been stolen, they might have spent the money without protest. And do not criminal lawyers deal more in thieves’ money than any other? THE DUTY OF CODDLING. ‘THOSE WOMEN of Chicago who have taken up the profession of high- way robbery must not be punished. It is repulsive to see women punished. In a case of electrocution the condemned woman has to bare one of her legs, and that is pronounced indecent; and if women footpads are sent to prison they have to wear a convict garb from top to toe, which is infinitely worse because there is more of it. Oh,no! Let us not punish women for wrong-doing. Let us coddle them. comicbooks.com
