WHEHK was the Governor when tlie lust lioby fight was on?
THE Administration is never too bnsy to find time to turn down a Grand Army pensioner.
THE wool growers of the United States have lost a ronnd $20,000,000 already s'nee the "change."
FORTY- FOUR counties of Kansas have tenantless paorhonses. The calamity howler seems to be without an occupation.
THE McKinley law is just as iniquitous now as it was a year ago, but the Democrats are not saying a word about repealing it.
THE existing disturbance in business is due to uncertainty far more than to any other cause and this uncertainty grew out of the result of elections in 18SU and 1892.
CAREFULLY compiled fruit statistics indicate that there will only be about -18 per cent, of an apple crop whlie the peach yield will be unprecedented in yield and quality.
THE soil of Indiana WRS again disgraced last Monday night by Bnother prize-fight at Roby. The vertebrale6S (Governor made no attempt to prevent it. "How strange do things go on in this bad world!" i!
PEOPLE who talk Bbout a Bcarceity of money should bear in mind that there is more currency thRn at any previous UD in our history. This is not all iu circulation. Much of it is locked up ana hoarders now contribute most of the trouble i.2 the way of business.
COMMENTING on the action of Governor Alt geld in pardoning the Chicago anarchists the Tribune of that city says:
It was geueruily understood that they were to lie let go In the event of Altgeld's election. The anarchies believed tliat he was not merely un alien by birth, but an alien by tempermom and sympathies, and they were right. IK* has npparenlly not a drop ot true American blood in his veins. He does not reason like an American, nor feel like one, and, consequently, he does not behave like one.
THE pardon of the Chicago anarchistE by Governor Altgeld is no surprise to those who knew his antecedent training and views. His sympathies have always lx?en with the worst elements of Chicago, tind hie nomination was a strong bid for the anarchist vote, which he received no donbt with a full understanding that if elected he would do just exactly what he has done. Turning loose these red handed murderers is the sequel to the Democratic victory in that State last fall. At the last election the people sowed the wind. Thoy are now reaping the whirlwind, not only in State but in National affairs.
THE Mt. Vernon Democrat, a paper having for its motto "Democratic at all times and under all circumstances," in speaking of the hue and cry made by its Democratic friends in favor of a re duction ot pensions, says:
We regret to say that the action of some of our Democratic friends. In their hue and cry about pension frauds, Is calculated to make Indiana eivc a large Republican majority at the m'xtelection.
The soldier ltoys are entitled to all they get in the way of pensions. In fact, every man who went to the front during the "late unpleasantness." and endured the hardships lu11 lenl to war, was more or less injured In health. If not actually wounded, and we can never amply repay them for the sacrifice made
We would like for this so-called Democratic Administration to accomplish something in genuine reform measures, but It must not attempt to deceive the people by taking away the honestly earned pensions of the defenders and saviours of the Union.
We giv»? this advice in all sincerity from a iK'uiocraiic standpoint, for If such a course Is pursued, overwhelming defeat is absolutely co-tutu to be our fate in the elections next year, and also in 18110.
CONDEMNATION of what is known as the "bicycle Btoop" is becoming general, and rightly BO. That eminent authority, the London Lancet, has pointed out the serious damage to the spines and chests of bicyclists which the prevailing habit of bendidg low over the steering bar of the machine must inevitably produce. As a health giver and muscle developer the bicycle is nnequalad, if properly ridden. But there are, unfortunately, a large number of wheelmen who seem intent on perverting it into a means of deformity and disease, The awkward and unnatural stooping position while riding is copied from the attitude assumed by bicyclists on race tracks in order to gain the utmost purchase possible and
leBBan
the resistance
of the wind. In racing it may be useful. Elsewhere it is inexcusable. The silly stoop over the handle bars in ordinary riding is not the attitude of a gentleman, and no rider who aspires to be thought a gentleman should permit himself to fall into this vile habit.

DOGS GROWN WILD.
An Island In the Brazos River Infested with Them.
Tha Animal* Art Fiercer Hd More Cam* batlT* Than Volnt-A Battle to the Death with tha Dog
Victorious.
Several miles below Waco the Brazos river makes a bend like that in the James river across which Gen. Butler made the Dutch Gap canal. The island within this bend Is very fertile, and is planted yearly in cotton, producing^ a bale to the acre easily.
A portion of it, nearest the river, is densely grown with barberry, yipan and cottonwood, forming a chaparral only passable by paths made, perhaps, by Indians, and kept open by cattle going to water and boys who drive them. Among- the animals which inhabit the chaparral are wild dogs—pariahs, or descendants of 'pariahs. The theory of the planters Is that the ancestry of this vest kennel of dangerous and yelpiny curs were unsociable, thievish and domestic curs driven away from Waco early in its history, says a Waco correspondent of the St. Louis Globe-Demo-crat. They are essentially wild beasts now fierce, cowardly, carnivorous, hunting in packs and fighting among themselves over the quarry their joint efforts secure. They are ruder toward each other than wolves, and with the wolves they are always at war.
Recently a calf, the property of Senator Coke, became enjrulfed in a bed of silt left by the river's subsidence after a flood. The wild dogs gathered, and the cow-mofcher met them. She made a gallant fight to protect her offspring, but the mongrels pulled her down and were soon rending both her flesh and that of the calf, snarling and biting each other over the bloody banquet. Attracted by the smell of blood and the yelping and growling a pack of wolves emerged from the thicket and joined or attempted to join In the feast. The dogs abandoned their meal, ceased their family strife and made common cause apainst a common enemy. It was a wild and relentless fight. All over the sand, or in the sticky mud,, or rolling over and over in the shallows, dogs and wolves, locked together in quenchless hate, tore each other's throats, bit, wallowed, and howled whllo some, tumbling together into deep water, floated down the river, fighting as they went. Dogs slew wolves and wolves slew dogs. Thus war went on, until many of the combatants were dead or hors de combat.
The correspondent of the Globe-Dem-ocrat was rowing down the river, and rested on his oars to witness the novel and terrific battle. At length only one pair continued the fight. One of these was a huge shaprgy cur and his antagonist a gTay wolf, superior to his fellows in strength and size. These champions were nearly evenly matched. They fought by snapping, wolf fashion, part of the time. Then they closed and wrestled for throathold. They foiled each other with the skill of trained fighters, rising erect, locking arms, parrying and thrusting with their fanged muzzles until, after fully an hour had been spent and both were cut and torn over their entire bodies, the dog triumphed. Getting his teeth in the neck of the wolf he cloBed his eyes, and when he relaxed his hold the wolf was dead.
When certain that his antagonist was djue for, and to make doubly sure, the dog dragged the body of the wolf ten feet over the slimy margin and uttered a howl of triumph which brought to life several of his companions which had seemed to be dead. Some females came also from the timber, and the victor limped to the calf, finished—along with the remnant of the pack—his interrupted meal, and, after drinking deeply from the river, took his way back, closely attended by two females, perhaps his wives.
The reporter could have killed the brave dog, but would not do it. A bullet directed against the old veteran when his battle was won would have seemed like murder.

Tcrkes Removes to New York. Charles T. Yerkes, having made $0,000,000 or so in Chicago street cars, is going to New York city to enjoy it and preparatory thereto has got a $50,000 mausoleum in Greenwood cemetery and has begun a $1,500,000 mansion on Fifth avenue.
