T MAY NOT be said of an river on fire. that he will never set the Chicago History. the poets and the girls are going to take first-rate care of General Funston. HE CHURCH in Louisville which bars out distillers must also bar out the farmer with his corn, rye and barley. F IT 1S TRUE that “Ouida” writes on her knees it is ‘not impossible that she is all the while praying to be forgiven. [T-REALLY ought to occur to Georgia lynchers that it is not fair to lynch several negroes for a crime committed by only one. Senator Quay is about to ‘reform. “See here!" he was heard to remark recently, “you don't catch me in that kind of scrape again.” E BELIE THE GERMAN ADMIRAL at Manila is the man who started Captain Coghlan in his inspiratio exuberance, and it is curious that nobody talks of cutting 47's head off. HE FAMOUS SONG about the kaiser is ob- jectionable, we suspect, be- cause it intimates that his jesty shares his responsi- with the Almighty. ENERAL FUNSTON d his men are de- scendants of the men who saved bleeding Kansas from slavery. What wonder that they know how to fight and win! MB: BAILEY of Texas, who wants to go to the senate, makes a good bid for popularity by refusing to be responsible for any action of the Democrats of the lower house. Honor to the Germans here who keep. their affection for the fatherland; but the kaiser ought to yield as gracefully to fun and criti- cism as does the president of the United States. The high- era man is the better mark. APOLOGETIC, THE MUGWUMPS must not blame our boys in the Philippines tov much for their numerous and glorious victories. Really, they had to whip or be whipped, for they were in no condition for a surrender or a retreat. OUR OTHER BLACK MEN. THE FILIPINOS are dark, but we do assure them that not one of them will be imported for the mere purpose of taking him to Georgia and burning him alive. That is a kind of civilization that is visited solely on the native black man. ELIGIBLE. HE DEMOCRATS needn't be afraid to adopt General Miles as their man for the presidency. While he undoubtedly stood with the Ameri- can side in the late struggle, he didn’t do any fighting; and now he is pitch- ing into the administration as if he were a Democratic yellow newspaper. TREASON. EYOND DOUBT there was an effort in this country to create dissat- isfaction among the soldiers in the Philippines, and some of them write as if the effort were too successful, During the civil war that kind of work was called copperheadism. There is a disposition now to call it treason. i. NO EXPANSION THERE, NICARAGUA, Hondaras and Salvador had a little empire which lasted less than a month and then quarreled and disintegrated. It is con- solatory to reflect, however, that each got away from the others without a revolution. Probably the union was so brief that neither had a chance to expedite the stealing. POOR SCHLEY! SENATOR GORMAN wants the Demo- crats to nominate Admiral Schley. for vice-president. He would run, we suppose, on his naval record and on the fact that he is one of Gorman’s relatives. " His views as to finance would not embarrass him, as he has none, and Mr. Bryan would take care of that part of the business. JUSTICE TO THE DEAD. POETS ARE JUST. He of the Denver Post pays a fine tribute to the late-ex- * Senator Tabor notwithstanding the fact that when the ex-senator died he didn’t have a cent to his name. Other writers confine their attention to the fact that Tabor had many failings besides the several financial ones that caused his downfall. TORTURE OF THE INNOCENT. ONE TROUBLE with the southern lynchings is that it doesn’t seem to be nec- essary to prove guilt. The fact that the man is black leads to the assumption that he must unavoidably be guilty. And when one is to have his ears and fingers cut off, previous to being burned, the fact of guilt is a consola- tion that ought not to be de- nied him. REGULATING THE MODES. HE COURTS have de- cided that an English landlady who refused to serve a lady clad in bloomers was justifiable. Thus keepers of English hotels are empower- ed to fix the styles proper to hotel entertainment that is paid for, and will doubtless arrange the costumes of guests from shoes to neck- ties. It isn’t reasonable or fair, but law is law. x 5. NO NAME FOR IT, he is, and the greater he is watches y the more he likes it. DERTAKER—" Rushed to death.” comicbooks.com
