Witt AGUINALDO go on the Democratic banners as the second Washington? eee BRIEF OBITUARY of convict who has just died—Out of the frying- pan into the fire? T IS NEVER safe or wise to make judges of men whose proper place is the prisoners’ box. TIS NOT a bad idea that the cyclones go to the Philippines in- stead of Porto Rico— we've attended to that. eee THE WEALTH of John R. McLean is estimated at twenty million dollars. Do not get that mixed up with the contemplated Dem- cocratic majority. rs NDOUBTEDLY the Jersey lily loves the American people, as she says; but we do hope she means to marry only the unmar- ried part of them. eee THINGS ARE AS PEACEFUL in San Domingo as a summer morning ; but, stay! we haven't had news from there for the last five minutes. cee MR. BRANCH of Maine, who proposes to evangelize the whole world in ten years, must get up a few armies—he can’t do it with a mere club, we can tell him. eee THE YOUNG MAN who goes home from West Point for hazing prob- ably feels a little uneasy in his own mind. It’s a poor kind of hazing that doesn’t work both ways. oe soART IS UNGODLY.” says a clergyman. Is it fair to condemn art for the dreadful fact that some women are so beautiful as to de- serve to be reproduced and perpetuated ? cee REPUBLIC which lives or dies by permission of an army is a brutal absurdity, and, still more absurd, the army's main talk, though its main business is to kill, is about its honor. carry : THERE 1S DOUBT as to whether the Chinese emperor is insane or merely dead. As long as the empress lives he might easily be one or the other, and be equally miserable in either condition. eee KR0cER quotes the bible with extreme effusiveness. The substance of his words is like those of the colored man who was about to drown, “Oh Lord, ef you's eber going to do anything for poor Sam now am de * ee NEW METHOD. “* What on earth are you doing now?” My family are very anxious to have a statue of me, so I'm just filling up on plaster-of- TO BE EXPECTED. HE. ASSASSINS of France would like to kill Madame Labori, too. It is an ambition worthy of men who trampled women under foot dur- ing a conflagration, and sailors of the same race who clubbed women to death to save their own lives, TOO MUCH OF THIS. TOO MUCH is charged to hypnotism. It is not as guilty as charged. When a man steals he must not find his defense in hypnotism. When a woman acts foolishly she must not expect sympathy instead of penalty ‘on the ground that she was hypnotized. Let the various tubs stand on their own bottoms. PEACE WITH DISHONOR. DAVID B. HILL is reported to have suggested Democratic harmony by letting the silver men make the principles and the gold men have their share in executing them. The latter must have an intense yearning to be yanked out of oblivion if that is the case; but their Democratic op- ponents are afraid to trust them and flatly deny them the privilege. BOYCOTT THIS PESTILENCE. BOYCOTT the Paris exhibition? Go further than that. Boycott France. Boycott her merchants and her manufacturers. Boycott her hotels and everything with which she has to do. She has boycotted justice and fair play. She is unfit for recognition by any other nation, Her disgrace is so complete that she can never recover from it and never should. WHICH JEFFER- SON? T HE SUGGES- TION of Mr. Bry- an that the general government license the trusts that go beyond particular states should be viewed with alarm. Is it not an attack on the rights of states? Is it not an attempt at further centralization of power? Must there be further outrage to invite revolution like that put up by the honorable Jefferson Davis? After all, is it that Jefferson that Mr. Bryan worships? Woy wWilal. THE MISCHIEF THEY DO. THE MISCHIEF in- vited by the At- kinsons is not confined to our own people. They encourage the Filipinos to fight, and thereby invite them to the bloody graves they will occupy if they follow the advice. Perhaps these men seek nothing more conspicuous than martyrdom, but the penalty ought to be too severe to be a mere gratification of their miserable ego- tism. And they should have better thought for their foreign friends. ORGANIZED TRAITORS. A MAN in Cincinnati talks his Democracy too straight. He hopes Otis will blunder till our army is either captured or driven into the sea. Murat Halstead, who had been lecturing to an audience composed in part, of this man, said that was the talk of a traitor, and immediately many in the audience tried to mob him, But could a traitor have said anything worse? Can there be worse copperheadism than Democrats are talking particularly in the west and south? MR. DINK OF CHICAGO. ALDERMAN “HINKY DINK” of Chicago was recently in this town, and says with charming frankness, “I t'rows up me mitts when it comes to stacking up alongside of dat burg. Dere’s only one real sporty town in de universe, and dat’s New York. Chicago is Oberlin, Ohio, to it. We're lobsters here. Dat's right, and boiled lobsters at dat.” It is not often that a distinguished representative from our western rival is so ap- preciatively truthful; and we hereby suggest that when he next visits us he be given the freedom of the city in a gold box. comicbooks.com
