The battleship Iowa seems to be
in the same class that the state she
was named after belongs—the first

thankful. The legislature has ad

The Greek who cannot read Eng

Bhape of newspaper poetry inspired
by “heroic Greece.”
If some of the special correspond
ents know what they are writing
about, the King of Greece has either
to. fight the Turks or to fight the
Greeks.
Iv that Greeco Turkish war wants
to attract any attention in this
country, it mast get down to busi
ness before onr baseball season
opens.
Pbeiidest McKinley mast feel
I? very grateful to the newspaper men
who are so obligingly filling vacan
cies in the supreme court before
they exist, and rearranging his cabi
net for him.
Somebody will be sure to remem
ber that the same J. Pierpont Mor
gan who has contracted for the legal
services of ex-Secretary Carlisle was
once upon a time a contractor for
government bonds.
Whbk the average democratic
editor is at a loss for something to
write, he attacks “Czar” Reed’s
method of running the house. That
is one of the reasons republicans
admire Mr. Reed so much.

O’Neill is a great place. When
ever anything of importance occurs
it is bound to be connected with it
someway. But it looked as if the
1 sir ship was going to pass us up and
not allow the citizens oi one of the
best towns in the state to gase on
its beauty. But it didn’t. It is
true that it visited several othei
vicinities before shedding its lumi
nous light on O’Neill, but as it is
said that the first shall be last and
the last shall be first, we ere satis
fied. Any ettisen of O’Neill ean
now hold hie head proudly erect and
be happy, fully convinced of the fad
that he resides in one of the favored
i,' ; 1 '
The luminary ( f) down the street
says the election of Gillespie was a
great silver victory. Charley should
look at the vote oast for Bryan
in O’Neill last fall and he may
change his mind.

The civil service rales as manipu
lated by Mr. Cleveland have been
getting some hard thumps in Con
gress, and they are likely to get
more of the same sort, whether the
joint resolution offered by Congress
man Corliss, of Mich., to repeal all
the Cleveland extensions, be adopted
or not.
It is not strange that the foreign
ministers at Washington should be
agitated over the Dingley bill. We
cannot take back the trade the Wil
son bill presented to foreign coun
tries without injuring those countries
more or less, but we must have that
trade in order that our idle men
may be put to work.
It must have been noted by care
ful observers that republican sena
tors have not been abusing the
Dingley tariff bill, although it might
be supposed from reading a certain
class of newspapers that they were
all opposed to it. The republican
senators are all right; it’s the oppo
sition newspapers that are not.
A new West Virginia corporation,
known as the Olen Lincoln Coal and
Coke oompany, is owned and man
aged exclusively by colored men.
It owns 200 acres of coal land and
has 2,000 acres under lease. The
stockholders are mostly, practical
miners, and the constitution of the
company prohibits the sale of its
stock to a white man.
Mb. Bailey, of Texas, leader of
the democratic minority in the
national house of representatives,
refuses to don at any time a swallow
tail coat or a stovepipe hat. The
southern representative insists on
wearing on all accasions a black
frock coat, a white lawn necktie,
diamond studs and a Mexican som
brero. This is rather a queer lay
out in the way of raiment, but it is
certainly superior in some respects
to the old-time Georgia major's
noted costume, which consisted
simply of a shirt collar and a pair
of spurs.—Inter Ocean.
Notwithstanding the fall of Fin
greeism in Detroit, Miohigan gave a
republican majority of 40,000 in her
judicial election on Monday, which
is .about up to the McKinley mark.
This majority came from the farm
ers. The cities and towns were
about a stand off between republi
canism and fusionism. The farm
ers of the country are intrinsically
sound, and where not rattled by
local disasters stand firm for honesty
and common sense in the adminis
tration of economic and monetary
affairs. In Nebraska, after the
return of normal conditions, the
farmers will resfue us from the mis
government into which the fusion
folly has plunged the state. They
may leave the reservation in bad
times, but they dome baok, good
enough Indians, in the end.—Lin
coln Journal.
No ACO0BATE list of new laws
passed by the late legislatnre has
yet been published. The free and
easy manner in which the records
were kept has made it impossible to
tell with perfect accuracy just what
was done. Some of the billB have
been reported to the governor with
wrong numbers attached, and some
bills that were not passed were sent
to him for his signature. In due
time the blunders will be straight
ened out, but in some cases not until
the courts have been called upon to
decide knotty points. It is safe to
say that all of the bills passed by
the clerks without the active co
operation of a constitutional majority
of the regularly elected members
will be thrown out as of no force
and effect, but what will become of
a lot of botched bills nobody can
tell at present—State Journal
TO PROMOTE BIMETALLISM.
The president tonight announced
the appointment of Senator Edward
O. Wolcott, of Colorado, Hon. Chaa.
J. Payne, of Boston, and ex-Vice
President Adlai E. Stevenson as
commissioners to an international
monetary conference. These ap
pointments were made under the act
approved March 3 last, “for the pro
motion of an international agreement
for bimetallism,” and by its pro
visions do not require confimation
by the senate.
It has been generally conceded
that Senator Wolcott would be made
a member of the commission. He
has been an active leader in the
movement for a monetary agreement
and widely known os an advocate of
the silver cause. His trip to Europe
recently was generally conceded to
be at least semi-official as the repre
sentative of the new administration.
His tour extended over several
months and embraced the leading
European capitals. He had audi
ences with the more noted financiers
and ministers and it is believed then
laid the foundations for the inter
national conference which the com
mission appointed tonight will en
deavor to bring to a conclusion.
Senator Wolsolt is now serving his
second term in the senate, having
been elected to that body in 1885.
While a pronounced bimetallist, he
was a staunch supporter of the St.
Louis ticket.
Ex-Vice President Stevenson, the
democratic member of the commis
sion, though generally known as an
advocate of bimetallism, was a
staunch supporter of Mr. Bryan and
the Chicago platform. He and
Senator Wolcott, however, are said
to be in accord on the money ques
tion.
General Charles S, Payne, who
may be termed the minority member,
is a republican and was a McKinley
man. He is one of the most promi
nent business men of Massachusetts
and is said to be a deep student of
the financial question. While he is
classed as a supporter of bimetallism
based on international agreement, he
is regprded as allied with the sound
money faction. He is a graduate of
Harvard, being a member of the
class of *53. General Payne is
largely identified with railroads and
other corporations, being a director
of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
railroad and other large concerns,
and a director of the Boston Insti
tute of Technology; was an intimate
friend and associate of Prof. Walker,
the financial author and authority.
He is a man of large wealth and
probably better known to the public
at large as one of the syndicate of
gentlemen who built the cup-defend
ing yachts Puritan, Mayflower and
Volunteer. It is a faot not generally
known that General Payne accom
panied Senator Wolcott on his
European trip and assisted him in
that work. It is believed that he
went abroad with Senatpr Wolcott
with the understanding that he was
to be made a member of the com
mission.
It is not yet known when the com
missioners will meet and organize.
When an organization is effected,
however, it is believed that Senator
Wolcott will be president. It is
authoritatively stated that the com
missioners will not go abroad before
May 1, by which time the new am
bassadors will be at their posts and
render the special envoys the assist
ance necessary in the consumation of
their mission.—Bee, April 13.
