is an ancient saying which Hon, Perry

Perry-launched a boom for Marcus A.
Hanna a boom, mark you, not a boom
let. It is a robust, healthy, sizable
boom. Perry not only launches It, but
he gives reasons to buttress it up
some reasons, not alL His modesty
forbade his giving the conclusive rea
son why Mark should be nominated.
and that is that inasmuch as all Re
publican campaigns In these latter "days
are boodle campaigns it. is eminently
meet and proper and In keeping with
the ternal fitness of things that the
boodler in chief of this age or, for that
matter, of all the ages should be the
beneficiary of the bo6dling. If Mark is
nominated, he can - manage' his own
campaign as chairman of his Own na
tional committee. - He would know by
experience precisely whom to touch
and for how much. -
X I really believe that I first suggested
Mark as the Republican nominee, but 1
waive my claim's In favor of Perry. My
suggestion was seemingly regarded as
being sinister, but Perry's is all right.
He is one of the elect, and his London
Interview ought to be worth at least
a cabinet portfolio or "something
equally good," to borrow a euphe
mism from the Missouri Republican
silk stockings when on a . memorable
occasion they were endeavoring to rid
themselves of Uncle Chauncey ; Ives
Filley, who was the only Republican
leader in Missouri that could lead.
Perry has a fine ye for harmonizing
things. ; Of all places on earth the
most ' suitable place - for. launching
Mark's boom- is London, England, and
Perry picked that as the initial point
of the campaign beeause he wanted to
serve ; notice on all mankind that
Mark's regime will be only a continua
tion of the c. McE-inley-English love
feast, 4 Paltry republics may be throt

so they can stand welL with their royal
and imperial cousin, Edward VII, king
of Great Britain and . Ireland, emperor

All the bread and butter brigade will
envy Perry his great and brilliant coup.
Bully for Perry and Mark!
A Strange Case of Self Effaeemeat
It will be remembered that .. on . a
memorable . occasion Senator William
EV. Chandler, Ithe waspish statesman
from New Hampshire, astonished the
World by advising Senator Marcus A.
Hanna to efface himself. If he -had
advised Mark to 5 go straightway "and
hang himself by the jieck till he was
dead as the men who lived before the
flood, be would hot have created any
greater amazement. But Mark ! did
nothing of the sort Au contraire, he
magnified himself until he became the
whole show,. ancHo Chandler the unex
pected happened. Effacement came
upon Wm not sell enacement, marn
you, nut enacement nevermeiess, er
facement complete, enforced by bis en
emiesJi WhetherMark- gave them en
couragemenr in effacing William this
deponent saitb not, because he know
eth not; but far stranger things have
happened. Byron uttered a great truth
when he said, "Sweet ia revenge !";and
Mark is decidedly human of the earth
earthy. .Whether be contributed : to
William'staking off. It taxes buman
credulity,too much to.believe that tie
shed any tears when the New Hamp
shire senator "fell outside the breast
works." If he shed any,-tbey-were of
the crocodile variety. But, If Mark re
fused to practice self effacement, an
other statesman has done - so to wit,
Colonel James Hamilton Lewis, the
brilliant, bizarre statesman from; the
new state of ! Washington. He bobs up
serenely wHb a presidential tlcKet,
strong, mtenectnally at least, at both
ends David Bennett Hill and, Tom L-
Johnson. Now, It Is well known that
Colonel Lewis has vice presidential as-
plrations himself. Indeed he received
quite a handsome vote in the conven
tion of 1896 for that position. His sug
gestion of Hill ' and Johnson must
therefore, be attributed solely to his pa
triotism. Whether his acumen is to be
commended Is another matter. . Most
aRMiredlv his self abnegation is. - But
Colonel Lewis is young In the very
flower of bis years, in the heyday of
llfe-'-and perhaps be reflects that "all
thinzs come to him. who waits.
; Making presidential ticKets tnree
years in advance is a harmless ifnot a
profitable performance. At the rate at
which It Is at present going forward, by
1904 every man can have his own pres
Mpnrial ticket and the statesman who
does not see his name mentioned In
that connection will be deemed as ex
clusive. - - " r :
" Hall.. Senator Carmack!
Tn this - day of limitless gush and
Blabber It is refreshing to contemplate
a mnn who retains his common sense

A New Map of the World Needed.
From time to time geographers issue
new maps of the world on which- the
possessions of each nation are printed
Jn some peculiar color for purposes of
Identification. The British color leads
all the rest One of the jnost gorgeous
sentences that ever fell from human
lips is that of. Daniel Webster about

globe. . At the present writing oure
does the same, but if J. Pierpont Mor
gan keeps on making conquests a new
map of. the world will soon be neces
sary with a Morgan color to Indicate
the Morgan possessions.". Indeed, he is
rapidly forging to- the front as one of
the J'great powers." Up to. a recent
date the list of persons entitled to the
privilege of the floor of the bouse and
furnished the doorkeepers ran some
thing in this wise: "The president vice
president members of-the. cabinet
beads of divisions, senators, ex-mem
bers, members elect foreign ministers,
governors of states, those who have re
ceived 'the thanks of congress by name
and George Bancroft" - The list of
"great powers" will soon be remodeled
so as. to read, "The United States of

Lack of Candor. -
There are no lengths to which a con
firmed Republican organ grinder will
not go in the endeavor to score a point
The Globe-Democrat of St- Louis Is a
conspicuous example of that sort of
vicious journalism.; When the census
figures for Missouri were announced,
it was found that certain great agri
cultural counties bad lost In population
notwithstanding the fact that the state.
taken in Jts entirety, had made , a re
markable -gain In that respect In-
stanter The G.-D, instead. of realizing
that that was only- a symptom of a
universal disease the tendency of
pie to go to the great cities (I call it a
disease because 1 so regard It) day
after day -harped sadly on the de
cadent counties" as signs of the evil
of Democratic supremacy. Of course
its rant was idiotic and malicious, de
ceiving nobody but idiots and pleasing
nobody except - mallgnants. It . turns
out that the movement from the farm
to-the city is universal a most unfor
tunate movement The story is the
same In every old settled state, wheth
erJDemocratlc or Republican. Indeed,
the movement cityward Is not confined
to America, but is seen and felt in Eu
rope as well. Missouri Is Democratic:
certain Missouri counties lost popula
tion; therefore, shouts. The G.-D., Dem
ocratic .supremacy is a ' blight " upon
agriculture. It Is the old fallacy of
-"Cum hoc" ergo propter hoc." Now, If
The Globe-Democrat's logic is correct
will It not explain to an eager world
ho.w it happens that In Ohio, the hab
itat of William McKlnley, where Mar
cus A. Hanna Is supreme, 22 counties
out "of 88r-exactly one-fourth of the
whole lost population. Ohio is un
questionably and incorrigibly Repub
lican; 22 counties fell -off in popula
tion; therefore Republican supremacy
Is a blight upon agriculture. - The lines

The truth Is that conditions grow

G.-D. knew that' but It was not candid
enoughto say.so. On the contrary.lt
proceeded to preach a false and libel

little cheap political capital.
A Trnst Item. '
I hope I will not be considered an
Impolite person if I ask The Globe-
Democrat and Hon. Sereno E. Payne,
chairman of the great committee on
ways and means, if they do not think
a little tariff - tinkering would be the
proper caper, touching the J Pierpont
Morgan billion dollar steel trust which
has Just marked up the price of steel
rails 2 per ton.' Of course, with the
usual bad manners which characterize
the supporters of the trusts, they may
answer, if they deign to answer at all.
that it Is none of my business, but in
that they would err, which Is human.
for every man, woman and chlla in
America Is interested In the price -of
steel rails.- The railroads still manage
0 squeeze this $2 a ton rise. In steel
rails out of travelers ana snippers. iu
shippers will exercise ingenuity enough
to squeeze It out of the consumer, and
at last the mass of the people "pay me
freight,' as In the last analysis they
foot all the bills. - The sprtngneia
(Mass.) Republican says ; , . .
tt htm hwti nredloted ot the hUlion and a half
steel trust that It would never make the mistake
cl exercising- its temporary power over the indus
try to lift up prices arbitrarily or otherwise, but
.,M vn nrlm down and encourasra the largest
possible consumption. This would seem to be
cood policy even lor an all powerful monopoly,
but the big- trust, like the others,, cannot resist
the temptation, and steel rails accordingly are
marked up $2 ton, which the tarlS protects the
trust IS doinr. The Iron Age scolds the trust end

with wisdom and moderation, even
with humanity and common honesty.
In their dealings with the southern
ers, long before this there would have
been a Republican party down In Dixie
which would carry many congressional
districts and some states, but they
with a fatuousness that was amazing
pursued the course certain to drive re

DR. BYLES STOOD GUARD.
It "Waa av TUakatlTlag Day, as! the
Caaae Waa Irstat.
One of the most famous of the oil
Puritan d I tines was Dr. Mather Pjlea,
who was born la Boston In 1701 and
who waa the first pastor of the Hollia
Street Congregational church, to which
he ministered for more than 40 years.
Dr. Byles was famous as a humorUt
and wit and Innumerable anecdoUa
are related of his clever qulpa and re
torts. He was a zealous Tory and
warmly advocated the cause of "the
mother country" against the colonies.
In November, 1777, be waa arrested as
a Tory, tried, convicted and sentenced
to be con&ned on beard a guard sh!p
and sent to England with hla family
within 40 days. The sentence waa aft
erward commuted by the board of war
to confinement In his own houae, a
guard being placed over him with in
structions not to permit him to leave
his resilience for a moment ender any
el rvnms lance. .
On Thanksgiving morning, observing
that the sentinel, who. like many of the
colonial soldiers, was a simple rustic,
Lad disappeared aud that Dr. By lea
himself waa pacing up and down be
fore his own door with a musket on hla
shoulder, the neighbors crossed the
street to Inquire the cause of this sin
gular spectacle.
"Too see," said Dr. ByWa. "1 bagged
my guard to let me go out to procure
some cider with which myself and
family might celebrate Thanksgiving
day, but he would not permit me to
stir. I. argued the point with him, and
he has now gone to get the cider for me
on condition that I keep guard over
myself during his absence." -

Moscow la probably the worst pav
ed city In the world. Great cobble-
atones driven by hand Into a loose bed
of sand form a roadway which la al
waya dusty In summer and muddy In
autumn, and. In many of the roads
there Is no sttempt at a roadway of
any kind. The streets are badly wa
tered and cleaned.
The city Is regarded by the Russians
as "the holy city," probably because of
the large number of monasteries It con
tains. It waa once the capital of the
empire and -still enjoya the distinction
of being considered the capital of the
interior, but there does not seem" to be
any particular desire on the part of
the authorities to make It more worthy
of Its title.
