EDITORIAL HENTION.
The Filipinos who art- still off
the reservation arc reported to be
returning in large numbers.
Some men make their way
through lift; as they do through a
crowd —by hanging to the coat-tails
of some bigger man.
Possibly David B. actually thinks
that Bryan hasn't the only dream
book telling what Jefferson would
do if he lived nowadays.
The Cuban delegates get §lO a
day until the convention adjourns.
Of course,however, this has nothing
to do with its prolongation.
Arkansas has passed a law re
quiring a man to take out a license
before he can buy a drink. We
thought Kansas took the cake but
Arkansas goes her one better.
It is to be hoped that the college
graduates at the coming commence
ments will point out some sure way
of escape from the dreadful blights
of imperialism and the octopi.
New England Methodists have
resolved against fishing on Sunday.
Can the bait have turned against
some of the good brethren and bit
ten like a serpent and stung like
an adder.
St. Louis kicked furiously when
Chicago sent its sewage down to
wards it. Now it is kicking more
furiously because Chicago has re
duced the amount by one-third.
There is no pleasing some people.
It is right and proper that China
should pay the cost of suppressing
the troubles over there, but she
certainly should be allowed an off
set against Germany and France,
at any rate, for the loot and rapine
to which she was subjected by their
troops.
People who respect public decen
cy will welcome the decision of the
Supreme Court, which will operate
to destroy the divorce mills that
have been running for years in the
western States. Hereafter, anyone
wanting a divorce will have to sue
for it at home.
Col. Bryan deplores the election
of the Democratic mayor at St.
Louis, and wishes that the Repub
licans had won by McKinley's ma
jority of last year. Possibly Mr.
Bryan will learn after a while, that
whether he is running or not,
makes a difference in the vote.
The country may be congratu
lated on the zeal with which the
frauds at Manila are being run
down and punished. Such things
must be as long as men are what
they are, but speedy punishment
will make them few and far be
tween.
Of course, President McKinley
will see the Cuban delegates and
anyone else who has anything of
moment to talk to hiin about. Still,
just now he is a good deal hurried
in preparing for his western trip
and'can't give them as much time
as lie could if they came later.

Dear Sir: Postmaster Noyes, of Gard
iner, Maine, says the Evans House
there was painted with Devoe in 'B2,
and again in '94—twelve years—and
the paint was Bound, though of course
the color had faded.
R. W. Haines, Hotel Coburn, Skow
hegan, Maine, uses lead and oil, and
has painted four times in eleven years.
Both hotels have been well cared for;
tho costs are us five to one. We say !
generally the costs are as two to one— j
that's enough.
Yours truly,
