HOLIDAYS are well, but there should also be a few days reserved for work and business. CONSUL ROSE of Samoa more nearly resembles that popular German flower the cabbage. THE DEMOCRATIC DINNERS in this town show us again that too many cooks spoil the broth. LET THE SUBURBANITE bear in mind that he mustn't hoe his gar- den till the seeds have come up. GERMANY apparently favors an alliance between England and the United States in behalf of war as well as commerce. ALERED AUSTIN, poet laureate, cannot frighten American literary pirates by mere prose. Let him shoot a poem at them. coe THE TRUST that gives ten-dollar dinners must be highly inspiring to those Democratic voters who dig ditches and work in coal-mines. NORTH DAKOTA now demands a year's residence before granting ivorce. What are the discomforts of married life in comparison with that? ET US compromise the bird-in-the-hat matter. Let it be stipulated that only the English sparrow shall be worn in that way, and that not less than six shall be on every bonnet. HE SUGGESTION by Mr. Croker that Mr. Platt be investigated, too, brings up the older suggestion that several wrongs do not make one right ; and besides Mr. Platt has a bad cold. THE MAYOR of Bos- ton denies the story that he once appeared in public without his socks. Perhaps he tells the truth, but we advise him to keep his boots as well as his shirt on. Se] THINK [ought 10 + keep quiet.” says the son of George Dewey. “as I have done nothi for the country is too much quiet. any man be so modest that he cannot swing his hat for the flag? THE DEMOCRATIC Utica Observer speaks depressingly of “the utter confusion that has come upon the Democratic party as to the real Democratic principles.” Well, well! And Mr. Bryan has been explaining them incessant- ly all these years. a regular peezness man.” HIS FUTURE ASSURED. Mr. Gotpstein (admiringiy)—"* Mein cracious, Repecca! look ad dot leedle Isadore, He vas LIBERTY IN HAVANA. HE CUBAN must have liberty or death. In fact he insists on both. He wants the liber- ty to fight over small things, as dogs over bones; and if he can't shoot a Spaniard or a friend he will cheerfully kill himself and think he dies like a hero, WHY NOT? MBS. STAN- TON ar- gues that wo- men should not suffer capital punishment be- cause they have no voice in the making of laws. Well, for the HER FIRST, LAST AND ONLY. Parxins (facetiously) —* That is a picture of my wife’s first husband.” SmivH —" Heavens! what a brainless-looking ass! But I didn’t know your wife was married before she met you.” Perkins (dry/y)—"' She wasn't. That is a picture of myself at the age of twenty.” same reason should they not be exempt from punishment when they gi or highway robbery? fe themselves up to kleptomania THE BOYCOTT. CERTAIN MERCHANTS of this town who boycotted the Evening Post were immediately boycotted by many of the Post's subscribers, all of whom are well-to-do and many of them wealthy. It is a poor rule that doesn’t work both ways, and the loyalty of those subscribers is a mighty good thing to win and wear. THE GREATNESS OF WEALTH. s6QINCE WHEN,” asks the Rochester Sunday Herald, “has great become a synonym for rich?” Since the beginning of the world, my boy. The ability to make money is the greatest of all possessions, since the be-all and end-all of effort is to accomplish that which brings comfort and éonsolation, and the power, it may be, to be good to others as well as to one’s self. THE DEMOCRATIC IDEA. s “THE TIME for Democrats to line up," says the New Haven Regéster, “is when peace has been won and order restored.” That is so They don’t propose to get into danger or to order anybody on the firing -line. And when peace comes they will claim all the glory and nominate any hero who will consent to get on” their ticket. LIBERTY IS TREA- SON. When a political pany makes a mistake in formulating its platform is the sentence for four years or for life? Since when has it been discovered that a political party, having blundered, is no longer free to correct the blunder, but must re- main forever chained and bound to the cause of its undoing ? THis IS the painful plea of the Democratic Al- bany Argus for liberty to make remarks, and it is treason, What! the silver business a blunder? The Chicago platform a blun- der? Come hither, Mr. Bryan. This bold, bad paper must be read out of the party. true! comicbooks.com
