untried murderers in the Marion county jail up to thirteen That model prosecutor down there has evidently gone to Bleep on his Job The trouble with Champ lark an a congressional leader is that too many of the minority members have no respect for hint They regard him as a mere actor and a self seeker and merely laugh at his platitudinous declamation concerning patriotism It will take a very much

her Juries The Justice of the decision In the night rider case is More than eclipsed by the astounding righteousness of the verdict In the Cooper case astoundinguecau8e twelve rncn were found Who rose above partisanship and factional rancor and returned a verdict of conviction Of course many will hold that for so brutal a butchery as that of Carmaclc a first degree penally should have been Imposed but under the circumstances it is amazing that there was a conviction at all The people of Tennessee are beginning to redeem themselves in the fjes of the country Congressman Cox if Indiana made a bitter attack on ex Iresldent Roose velt yesterday because in the last dajs of his administration he vetoed the tensus bill that purposed to put all hose employed In taking the census next ear under the spoils sytsieju Cox together with a lot of other polit ical blatherskites makes it clear that he Is not nearly so much concerned in having the census taken Intelligently and correctly na he is in securing berths for a lot of his bar lly henchmen ft Is gratifying to note however that while Mr Roosevelt is cursed by grafting congressmen and pot housel politicians for his veto the county as a whole warmly endorses and commends his action Last evening In lllooiningdale a drunken man accosted a young girl and When she lied from him In terror he followed her flourishing an open knife We are now informed by the police that the inan would probably have done no harm even if he had caught up with his terrified victim This is a nice soothing view to take but it is to 10 hoped that people will not proceed upon it and allow drunken men with open knives td get within striking distance There are now In the jail of Marion county thirteen murderers each of whom committed his crime while under the influence of Iijuof Three of them profess to remember nothing whatever of their deeds and a fourth killed a man he had never seen before just to be killing somebody Drunkenness does jhot always

of Georgia Is evidently not afraid ot the Peerless Orte In an address at the Grover Cleveland birthday dinner In New York Mr Smith said The almost unanimous senlinieitt from democrats I have met is that a new man should lead In the next contest Mr Bryan must recognize the soundness of this view And his remarks were greeted with tremendous applause The casual ob server present might well have been convinced that democracy had finally cut loose from Dryan artd riryanlsm and had resolved to turn again to Its old ideals and principles It Is just as Well to bear in mind however that Ihegatherlng represented die so called conservative wlng of Hie party Those present were men who have at heart always hated llryan who in turn has despised and excoriated them They do not express the sentiments of all the democrats Rack in the bushes in all he northern and western states ate thousands of men whose long whiskers will bristle like the auiUs of ihefret fnl porcupine when hey read the perfidious words of the iconoclastic Smith These men are still for llryan and they are against any other munwlio may rise up to take his place They are still of the same mind they were in liKIt when they put the kibosh on Judge larker Possibly there are not so many of I hem now hut there are lyioHgh of them lo render the cause of the democratic party hopeless And the prominent democrats Hie country know it Itilll Mr llryan voluntarily abdicates and names his own successor there is no irse for any other man to boh up us a demon title presidential candidate Such a one might capture the organization and absolutely dominate the national conventionconvention hut he couldnt hope to have a look in at the election without the Rryatiiles Thats all there Is to It and Hoke Smith mayliilk to
