' A remarkable thing occurred yester
day in the primary for the nomination
of aldermen. A certain young man on
' ,hU way to the pqll stopped at a mer
chant's place to ask the merchant to
t join him in going to vote. They both
live in the same ward and were unde-
: elded as to who to vote for alder
roan, and threw up a penny to decide
the matter for them. Head for one
roan and tail for the other. Tail came
' jJUD and the men voted-Jor Uie j:arwi
date which it represented, and the re-
markable part of it is that the candi
date voted for by these two men was
elected by two majority.

Atlanta Constitution.
The Brooklyn Eagle remarks by way
of warning that the Republicans "will
find themselves put on the aggressive
or defensive, both this year and next
year, on tariff questions, and they will
do well to choose which role betimes.
The issue," the Eagle declares, "will
not be postponed. , It will , not be si
lenced. We do hot' presume that inv
Republican statesman expects to avoid
the tari II issue. '. - .
The Republicans have chosen their
role, and it is the defensive one. The
last vestige of honest , resentment to
ward that Dart of the tariff which "nro
tects," nothing but the trusts in their
fleecing of the consuming publio has

To use a popular modernism, the ad

dictatorially that revision is out of the
question, adding with s flagrant dis
regard for the truth of political his
tory: "There, has never been an at

Secretary Root is soundinur the same

do not know how to account for this,

divorce. ,. ,"Men, '., said the ,.blshop,

the husbands and fathers of the land."

"The great evil the moBt frightful
