Tnc. republicans have soun'ded the first (fun In their campaign against southern representation, by challeng ing the credentials of Representative 31aM, of Virginia. If England and Germany would col lect their bad debts from the rotton monarchies In Europe and Asia, they would have a precedent for their seem ing haste to seize the port of a western republic. Some republican statesmen seem to think that a law which would give more power to the elbow of the attor ney general would make a good reason for keeping a republican at the head of the department of Justice. Tneedltorof the London Times calls President Itoosevelt a coward. You can say what you please about Teddy but to substantiate a charge of coward ice, "that's a horse of another color," and the paper that amounts to any thing to make such a charge wants to situated at least as far away as the London Times. It Is now settled that Oom Joe Can non will be the choice of the republi can caucus to succeed Speaker Hender son. Payne of New York and Dalzell of Pennsylvania, the only two eastern candidates who had ihe slightest chance of election, have formally retir ed. There never was much doubt that Oom Joe would be successful. Now that the republican party con- ironts a aemanci ror anti-trust legisla tion, Senator Cullom has found that the present law is all sufficient. We have frequently remarked that fact and have asserted that a few prosecu tions under the criminal provisions of the law would secure respect, but no republican attorney general dare cn force it. According to Engineer James C Stewart, the British bricklayer lays an average of 4oO to 600 bricks oer dav. while the American lays 2,000 to 2,700 bricks per day. When the American bricklayer gets $18 per day. which is what he earns as compared with the British laborer, wages in the United States will be as high as those paid in .England.
