.4 RKPIIIUCAN MISTAKE.
The decision of the supreme court
Nebraska against the seating of Gov
nor-eleet Boyd is likely to prove a piece
of good fortune to the democratic party
rather than the reverse. The case has
been carried to the supretue court of the
United States, and there is a probability
that it will set aside the decision of the
Nebraska court, which is republican and
is held by the friends of Boyd to have
been influenced by partisan motives in
declaring him disqualified. That places
him in the attitude ef a political martyr
and it insures a democratic victory in
Nebraska in the presidential election
next year. President Harrison sees the
lias expressed
himself as follow

The announcement is made that the
New York Press is to be regenerated and
made a first-class newspaper, instead of
the partisan republican sheet which has
heretofore been published from that
office. It will then be put in the list of
New York’s great dailies.

A BRIDE'S FIRST LESSON.
A bride’s first lesson, says the Ladies’
Home .Journal, is to respect the extreme
sensitiveness of her husband, who
doesn’t want people to know he has just
been married; consequently she will be
wise if, after her first journey, she as
sumes a gown that has seen wear; If she
will forget to look around in a startled
manner whenovor her husband is gone
from her side, as it is not likely that he
is either going to be lost or stolen The
next thing is not to UIbs him or hold his
hand In public, or call him “Darling.”
Any woman can make a man feel her
love without making him ridiculous.
Another thing for hei to learn is,
when she Is at a hotel, not to grow con
fidential with the chambermaid, not to
give her a piece of her wedding cake
and tell her all about the marriage cere
mony, and tell her liow she looked.
You think this is never done? Ask at
some large hotel. And she shouldn’t
giggle or look surprised when she gets a
letter from her mother addressed to her
married name. Men are particularly
sensitive creatures about some things,
and they are rather given to think a wo
man don’t want a name when she acts In
this way.
Wednesday, and ho hopes to bo able to
give a definite answer by that time.
DUPLICATION OF SALARIES.
Mr. Blair, drawing his salary as minis
ter to China, is the fortunate receiver of
$1,000 a month, with a diplomatic pad
lock on his tongue, instead of getting
$417 a month as a senator upon whoso
speeches no previous question can be
moved. All things considered, the pres
ent arraugeraent Is the most satisfacto
ry to the country. As to Mr. Donby,
the miuister resident at China, he will
continue to draw his pay until ho re
ports at the state department on his re
turn, and he will not start for home un
til he is relieved or recalled. This du
plication of salaries is provided for by a
special appropriation, which is known
as the lapse fund. If covers the time
consumed in transit by new and retiriug
ministers and consuls, and is a nccossa-

SENATOR CARLISLE AND THE THIRD
PARTY.
Senator Carlisle w as asked by some of
the Cincinnati delegates what he
thought of government ownership of
railroads and telegraphs. He answered
that these properties could only be
bought under government contract by
purchase or confiscation. To buy them
would bo to tax the people to pay for
ten billions of invested capital and four
billions in bonds. To give some idea of
their cost Senator Carlisle told the dele
gates that our government debt at the
close of the war was more than two bit -
lious, and we have been thirty years pay-
iug half of it. Then the purchase of
these properties by the government
would be the addition of 1,200,000 gov
ernment employees. lie admitted that
the accumulation of wealth in a few
hands was a bad sign, but ho asked how
were they going to prevent it. Did the
delegates propose to say that when a
man lias earned $100 or $1,000 ho should
not earn any more ? Senator Carlisle
believes the new party would mean dis
aster to the republicans. The third
party, he thinks, would not get 0,000
votes in Kentucky. Senator Carlisle be
lieves that his republican colleagues in
the senate considered their party on its
last legs.—Augusta Chronicle.

MORE ORIGINAL PACKAGE LAW.
The recent decision of the United
States supreme court ha9 settled an im
portant question growing out of its orig
inal package decision rendered a year
ago.
ThG decision, It will be remembered,
denied to a state the power to prohibit
or regulate the sale in original packages
of liquors imported from another state.
Its practical effect was to nullify the
prohibition legislation in every state
which had enacted such laws.
To restore to them the power of which
they had thus been deprived, congress
passed a statute authorizing the states to
deal with the liquor traffic. The ques
tion was then raised whether this statu te
gave vitality to previously existing state
liquor laws, or whether it was necessary
for the states to enact new laws. In a
Kansas case the enactment of new laws
was held to be necessary.
This view is rejected by the supreme
court at Washington, w hich holds that
the effect of the congressional act is to
restore the force of prior state laws.

Tub article in the Sews of recent
date, mentioning the bull-frog industry
that has recently "sprung” up in Bir
mingham, has been widely read and
commented upon. The attention of
English capitalists has been directed to
it as an enterprise offering greater profits
than a “monkey farm” or an electric
plant run by a stack of black cats. But
before these foreign capitalists can step
in and roap. the profits, two of our home
men have pooled their issues and will
work the project for all it is worth.
Messrs. W. O. Lindsey, of Trussville,
and E. M. Lathem, of this city, have or
ganized the “Consolidated Bull-Frog
Trust, Limited.” Their charter allows
them to do business in this and adjoin
ing counties, with headquarters in Bir
mingham, and they are empowered to
conduct and prosecuto any enterprise
appertaining to the culture, clean!og
and soiling of frogs of tho bull species.

liant member of tile press gang, lias re

unto himself a charming wife. Ills mar-
riago to Miss Lizzie Sucad on Tuesday

merchants of Atlonta rejoice at the fail
ure, as it will allow them to sell their
goods at a legitimate profit.
Tub Tennessee papers are after Gov
ernor Buchanan to declare himself on
the sub-treasury scheme, but be opens
not his mouth. In his present position
the Governor's opinion could not affect
the sub-treasury and he probably has
sense enough to know it. For tills rea
son lie thinks it wise to let the
matter severely alone, and that Is just
what he is doing.
Leaders of the third party Move
ment in Washington profess to have di
rect assurances that Senator Stanford,
ef California, is ready to put himself at
tho head of their movement with all
that is therein implied, and that be will
be the standard-bearer of tlie alliance
order and the people's party in 1802.
Some alliance leaders claim to be au
thorized to make public the alleged fact
that Senator Stanford considers he holds
his great fortune simply as a “steward
for tho people,” but .the test will come
when he has to open his barrel to foot
the campaign hills for the third party.

Tiik Memphis Times offered a prize
for the best answer to tho question
“What goes to make up a model wife
and from a long list the following is se
lected: “A model wife is a true woman;
gentle, teuder and loving. She is
Christian In the highest acceptance of
the word. She is one who looks upon
her home as her kingdom, ard rules it
with loving firmness. But above all,
she loves her husband with all her heart,
and will bo willing to sacrifice ever)’*
thiug for him. Such a woman is truly a
model, and one of whom it may be
•aid: l Her children rise up and call her
blessed; her husband also, and he
pralseth her.’ ” The woman that comes
up to that Is just a little too good for
any man.
The canvass in Mississippi Is get
ting hotter, the chief Issue being sup
port or opposition to the sub-treasury
scheme.” Its opponents claim a decid
ed advantage in the result of of the pri
mary election in Bolivar county last
Wednesday. Very nearly tbo full dem
ocratic vote of the county was cast, and
the result was the nomination of the
anti-^nb-treasnry ticket by a decisive
majority. This was tho first county
primary held, and the result has greatly
encouraged the antis.
Kentucky women are credited with
successfully engineering political move
ments in several instances in that state,
and Mr. Carlisle Is said to have owed his
promotion to the senate largely to his
popular and magnetic wife, who made
friends of every one and was present “on
the ground” doting his canvass. And
now we hear Mutt John Young Brown to
Indebted to his beautiful daughter for
his nomination for governor.
It appears that Congressman Jerry
Simpson, tho statesman from Medicine
Lodge, is no longer the idol of the Kan
sas alliance, owing to the fact that he
opposed the third party movement at
Cinclunati. The farmers are very indig'
nant because of tiie efforts of Jerry to
discourage the organization of the now
party, and they say that in the next con
gressional contest they will send Jerry
to join Ingalls. Senator Peffer is now
the great light of the alliance, and the
chances are that ho will be the third
party’8 candidate for the presidency
next year.
