When we hear the town knocker on
the street corner telling his listeners all
that is good and bad about the town and
that everything has gone to the lower j
regions we are always reminded of the j
story told of a Georgian's dog, which
runs as follows:
While the train wat waiting on a side
track down in a Georgia town, one of
the passengers walked over to "> cabin
near the track where sat a cracker dog
howling. The passenger asked a native
why the dog was howling. "Hook-
worn" said the native, "He's Lazy."
"But", said the stranger, 1 was not
aware that the hookworn was painful.
"Tain't," responded the stranger queri
ed. "But why does laziness make him
howl? "Wal, said the native, that
blame fool dog is sitin' on a sand bur
and he's too tarnation lazy to git off, so
he jes' sets thar an' howls cause it is
second nature for him to howl."

Paris, May 16— When M. Monis took
office one of the first things he did was
to pardon the employes of the State
railroad, discharged lor the part they
took in the great strike. The private
railroad companies, however, refused to
do so on the score that such a step
would be against all discipline and a bad
example. On April 14, M. Monis laid
the case before the chamber of deputies,
and declared that if the companies did
not take the men back he would ask
parliament to give him "weapons" to
make them do so. The socialists were
delighted at such language, and M.
Jaures presented his compliments to the
minister. The minister of public woiks
has now addressed a letter to the com-
panies, calling their attention to the
motion voted in the chamber, and ex-
pressing his convicton that they would
respond to the desire of the national
representatives "in the general inter-
ests and for the sake of public peace."
It is an ultimatum the companies are in
no mood to accept. They resent this
attempt on the part of the executive to
dictate to them the way they are to
carry on their business. The 2,000 men
in disgrace were members of the Labor
Confederation who had done all the mis-
chief, but there were tens of thousands
of their employes who sought protec-
tion against the Confederation. To ob-
tain the support of M. Jaures the min-
ister was pursuing a demagogic policy,
but, pending further legislation the
companies have the law 011 their side.
