THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1893.

MB. CLEVELAND not long since stated that he desired to give the country an "object lesson." The oountry has now given Mr. Cleveland an "object lesson."

As soon as Grover returns from his rabbit hunt he will have time to append his signatnre to Judge Jump's commission. He caught the rabbit and signed the commission.

THE result of the elections last Tuesday simply illustrates that "truth crushed to earth will rise again, while error, wounded, "writhes in pain and dies amid her worshipers."

THE Union veterans last Tuesday registered a stinging rebuke to the insults and persecutions of Hoke Smith. The verdict is so emphatic that he cannot misinterpret its meaning.

Tns country won't starve, at any rate. There is now in the elevators of the principal cities a "visible supply" of wheat amounting to 66,978,000 bushels, against 59,402,000 bushels a year ago, 34,644,000 two years ago, and 19,715,000 three years ago.

SAID a level headed Demociat yesterday "The result pretty well settles the question as to the next nominee of the National Republican convention for the Presidency, but who will be the Democratic candidate, where will he oome from and what kind of a platform will he stand on

THE workingmen who have been thrown out of employment in Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Iowa had plenty of time to go to the polls and vote the Republican ticket. They desired to get under the same umbrella with their employers.

THE victory of Tuesday is a notioe to the HOUBB Ways and Means Committee to keep their hands off American indus tries. The rebuke is so emphatic that Bourbon tariff amashers cannot misun derstand its meaning. If they oontmue in their unpatriotio work it will be at the peril of the total extinction of the Democratic party.

INDIANAPOLIS Journal: The average American citizen does not like a sneak. Hoke Smith is managing the pension .department from a sneak basis, and is not making friends for himself or his administration by so doing. Even those who believe that the pension

liBt

needs

revisnig do not approve of underhand methods or of the refusal to give the pensioner a chance to prove anew the justice of his claim before his little stipend is taken from him.

THE figures get bigger and more stupendous. Pennsylvania rolls up 130,000 Republican majority, while McKinley's plurality will be 85,000 and may run to 100,000. The plurality in Iowa for Jackson will be 40,000, and for Greenhalge in Massachusetts it will be 35,000. Both branches of the New York Legislature are Kepub lienn, as are also Ohio, New Jersey and Iowa. The majority

Bgainst

May

nard, the ballot return thief, is 90,000, while Judge Gary, the anti-Anarchist Bed anti-Altgeld candidate for Judge in Chicago will have 8,000 majority, It wns a sweeping and glorious victory.

THE Washington correspondent of the Indianapolis Journal anent the appoint rnent of Judge Jump to be Collector, eiys:

The appointment of Joshua Jump as colloc tor of Internal reuunue an Important event in Uic political career of Hon. Blljah Voorhces Ilrookslilre, of Crawfordsvillo, Representative of the Eighth congressional district. It Is stated by one of that gentleman's most Intimate friends that It meaiis Mr. Brookshlre's retirement from Congress. The appointment is the consummation of a general deal by which John E. Lamb, of Terre Haute, law partner of Jump, is to be returned to Con gross next year. Mr. Brookshlre will not discuss the subject for publication, but he Is quoted as uaving In private conversation acknowledged that he understood the details of the deal, and that Lamb would be his opponent for the nomination next spring. With Jump in charge of the powerful machinery of the internal revenue office and distiller Fairbanks In the saddle, not only will the Interests of Senator Vnorhees be taken care of, but John E.

Lamb wilt be boomed lor political honors.

And BO this appointment is but the beginning of the war that is to be made agaiost the Crawfordeville statesman. The belligerent Democrats may as well save their powder as the next Congressman from the Eighth District will be a Republican. Mr. Brookshire has attempted to ride two horses going in different directions, first voting for free coinage to pleaee his constituents, and then voting for repeal to gratify Mr.

Cleveland. The result is that he alienated both. And as for John E. Lamb, the Republicans should not ask for a softer snap than his nomination.

My Philosophy.

I alius arRy that a man Who does about the best ho can Is plenty good enough to suit This lower mundane institute No mattor of his dally walk Is subject fer Ms neighbor's talk. And critic minds of ev'ry whim Jest all tret up and go fer him.

It's nachnral enough. I guess. When some gets more and some gets less For them that's on the slimmest side To claim it ain'l a fair divide And I've knowed some to lay in wait And Ret up soon and set up late To ketch some fellow tlioy would hate Fer goin at a faster gait. The slims is Uul when fulks commence A-finlin"f:iult with Providence And bntkin cause the world don't shal» At ev'ry prain-in step they take. No man is sreat till iie can see llow les4 than little he would be Kf stripped to self, and stark and bare He hung his sign out everywhere.

,\1 docterin Is to lay aside Contentions and be satisfied. Jest do your best, and praise or blame That follers that oount jest the sane I've alius noticed great success Is mixed with trouble, more or less, And It's the man who does the best That gits more kicks than all the rest. —James Whitcomb Riley.

THE STREET CAR CODE.

Vexed

Practical Solution for a Much Question In Kttlquette. The question of street car politeness or gallantry may be regarded as settled in Paris if the decision of one of the leading papers, the Figaro, may bo taken as final. Inasmuch as we have had a great deal of discussion upon this tame subject in this oountry, the views of the French journal and some of its fair correspondent* may be interesting to New Yorkers. A correspondent asked the Figaro if a gentleman seated in an omnibus or a tramway, with all the seats occupied, should give up his place to a lady the moment she appeared at the dpor. The Parisian journal says that in a public conveyance each one should occupy the place for which he has paid. This, it says, is the opinion of the majority of our readers, and particularly the society ladies who never wear diamonds in an omnibus. They don't admit that ladies should accept the politeness, or rather the serrioe, of gentlemen whom they do not know. One of them gives this opinion "When a lady is contented with the cheap means of looomotion provided by the omnibus companies she accepts all the conditions. In all cities where there are omnibuses, tramways and other public vehicles a woman can see immediately whether there is room inside or not. If, on seeing that there is no vacant place, she nevertheless enters the car she takes a position which she ought to sustain. To permit a man to disturb himself for her when she might wait for another car if it was impossible for her to remain standing, would be an evidence on her part of a want of good breeding. It is very easy for her to thank the gentleman negatively and politely in a few short words, so that the incident may not be prolonged. Nothing can be more annoying for seated travelers than this mutual exchange of so-called oourtesies, and congratulations which 'goes on at their knees and threatens their feet, perhaps more or less afflicted with corns. Remain seated, gentlemen, remain seated the ladles cannot complain of that, without giving satisfaction to those men who reproach them for their want of logic.

Since they insist upon equality before the law, with all the rights and privileges Of men, they should put up with all that men have to endure. A woman in an omnibus should remain standing when there is no vacant seat, just as a man does under the same circumstances." Another correspondent says: "Remain seated, gentlemen you can do It without a breach of politeness. When fine ladies with their diamonds take the omnibus or the tramway, do not disturb yourselves for them, for if you do you will only be a dupe but if you see a poor woman carrying a child or a bundle then give her your place immediately. That is not politeness it is simply duty, possibly charity."

Masculine Sounding: Jfames of Oae Far mar's Daughter*. A woman spending the summer In an isolated farmhouse .was much amused by the rather masculine sound of the names of her host's six dauflrh-

ters, says the New York Times. This was the explanation offered: "Well,

wife wanted to

you see, me an' my name the children after our brothers. "She hed three an' 1 two. We neither on us hed ary sisters. My wife's a pretty smart woman 'bout most everything, but the way she twisted them names an' made 'em do for the girls did beat all. We never hed any boys. There's Wllla for my oldest brother 'Bill,' Thomasine for 'Tom,' Charline for 'Charlie,' Josepha for 'Joe,' and Roberta for 'Bob.' Well, when the sixth came my father said we ought to name one after him, sine* we hed twisted the uncles' names around. "I tell you Nicodemus was a poser, and we didn't want to slight the old man. Finally my wife hit on Nicoda.

There was a young fellow from New York boardin' here, and he thought Nicotine would be a good name. He said it was a real name, and showed it to us in a book he was readin'. I think my wife would have done it, for she rather liked tho sound, but my oldest daughter wa'n't quite sure about the young fellow thought he might be makln' a little fun. So wo stuck to Nicoda."
