Politics in France arc as much of a farce
and auisancc, even if not a nonentity
so far as an food is concerned, as they
art In on r own country and time. The
Friici people arebjr nature Impulsive,
fanciful and much fiven to pomp and
show. , These characteristics are at no
ticeable ia matters ofsUU as in social
relations. The term "unhappy France"
aaapp',toiuPoUtirt,,d tateitman
hifi ia prowrhial, and at the same time
not inapplicable. The recent failure of M.
BieUoe,to form a cabinet when author
ised to do so by his chief, is not a sur
prise to any one at alt contrersant with the
present state o French politics. It was
sailnrs through fear rather than for any
want orabllltT. rreawjeni vanwi"
PrWdent Orery. He lacks hit firmness,
hi foresight, his ability to cope with and
master the whims of the French people.
Theas wtr the essential qualities ofci
rresklont Crtvy'amakt up, they are en
tirdy lacking in the character and ad
ministration of the present President ot
Foacf. Hence, it it no wonder that M.
Mslirw, hesitated and finally failed to call
a cabinet. It would have been perchance
but the cabinet of a day, a mere play
thing, or caprice and. liable to be blown
way at any moment by the slightest
brscx of discord. The same is likely to be
the fcte of the present cabinet, formed by

He ha won temporary victory and prom
inence bp playing upon the fancies and
humors of hi people, rather than upon

the pporhtnity to moke bit tuccess the
success and welfare of all France. But
will he do it? This It the question that

moterr If so, all will be well The past
history ofFrnce and the course of her has
tily and chance mads statesmen will not
warrant it Ia gnat crises, France, unlike
oar own country, has not had great men
and deliverers, raised up to guide her
ship of Stole, On the other hand, she
bat drifted from revolution to revolution
and oftentimes her very existence has
bsea imperUeil. W't are not pessimists,
we aim not to teach pessimism, but the
present state of politics in France is such
that ifcare and caution benotthechicf in
grcdicnttof her statesmanship for the
coming months, a political upheaval will
tartly U the result. The true lovers of
Republican France, the true lovers of uni
versa! peace hope for a better end.
WHAT ARK THEV THKRK FOR
When we read that members of the
United Senate descend to the plane of urn
lignlty tnd blackguardism in debate,
and even let their tempers so get the bet
terof their judgment us to grapple with
each other at if in mortal combat, we
deem it pertinent to put the question
"What are the there for ? " When our
KprftenUtlvct in Congress are con
fronted by a large and rapidly accruing
surplus, due to the Inequalities audop-
prtaaton of a Ugh tariff which imposes
upon tai-ridden people unnecessary
and onerout burdens; when appropria
tmn bills, necessary for the transaction
of the nation's business and the Individ
ualwcal of all, are delayed passage by
the filibustering tactics of members who
itlt again time to ask, "What arc they
fotV Such is, and has been, the action
of Congress for the past few weeks and
such it it likely to be nutQ the session
, closes. Vhea tbeueoidekarn to dtKxrn.
and then to decide, between the good
and the bad, between the laboring and
the buy member of Congress, then shall
we tec party and personal bickerings
made sultservicnt to wiseand whole
some legislation for the mosses, and not
until tben.y The ntemlier who is diligent
and faithful in behalf of his constituents
should be kept in service, but the lag
gard, the political trickster should be Invited-
to remain at home. The closing
Congress hat one redeeming feature, it
will afford the public an excellent opiMir
tunity for pulling the noxious weeds.

There promises to be more dead ducks
in the Albany, N. Y. Leg'ature this year

by their repi-esentatives, still cry : On to
justice.

The city of Atlanta, Georgia, is su-
posed by many, and especially Northern
people, to be the coming metropolis of
the South. Well, Atlunta is a pleasant
town and no doubt has a future, but she
is decidedly behind the titties in tome
things. For instance, it will be months
before she will have her first electric rail
way, while our own Anheville hut a sys-
tern well established .and is already en
joying the fruits of this, the greatest ol
modem inventions. Score one more for
enterprising Aslieville.
