People who are unable to find an overshadowing issue in the Presidential campaign may properly enough attribute the faci to the personal pronoun. In the first place, there is the vociferous capita T of the White House-—the I that is superior to the Constitution and the laws, that has undertaken to rule by force of denunciation and bullying and favor, and that has confused the minds of men on almos every subject, from spelling to jurisprudence. Then there is the eltogether amiable and personally acceptab' capital I that has been officially designated as the Proxy of the co- Jossal pronoun at Washington—the I that wins support in some cases because, although an I, it is so different from the I that has been ‘on duty for so long a time. Finally there is the popular and persistent Democratic capital 1 that, strangely enough, claims to be not only the true heir of the IPHER but to many “th top’ ar road you will make the AS MOTHER USEO wut an effort there would be no sat tn bee Washington pronoun, but its father also—an I that naturally enoug tiene Be BBE YO CHION N CHAN under these circumstances, refuses to take issue with the other I's || distant Durie wastatitallure dh everything Hel und fa in Senin poetry. ‘ant wasn't much of a tanner, but he was DO SOME ONE THING EXCBPTIONA FIND And whe badge of the man of REAL WORTH ‘except in the matter of precedence, and so is compelled, unhappily as we believe, to devote too much time and energy to introspection. In the battle of the pronouns, therefore, we have the only trac explanation of the apathy which ali parties complain of and of the mystification which has fallen upon so many voters, It is a cuse in which the I’s are bound to have it in any event, the big I at Wash ington being the chiei winner, for if there ever was a capital 1 in America that richly deserved criticism, opposition and defeat it 1s| that same I which the other I's are glorifying. epg HORSE STEALING IN NEW YORK. It is alleged against certain New York men now in custody that 'fhey have long made a business of stealing horses and wagons. They had a stable and a repair shop. The horees were disfigured and dis guised in various ways and the wagons were repainted, after which §t was comparatively easy to dispose of them. If these charges can b sustained in court it is probable that the defendants will be sent to} ‘the penitentiary. | There are extensive districts in the United States where a crime of this nature would be regarded not only as a menace to government, but as an assault upon the very foundations of human society. In those parts the man who even in haste appropriates a horse belonging | to another is promptly hanged when caught. It might be possible to convince such people that horse stealing has become a regular indus- ‘try—one may say an institution—in New York, but they will never be AND THE WORLD t does MOI he clown who ety.
