NOT A OANDIDATE, BUT
It is not .ncessary that the country
should be con'tinually reminded that
President lIoosevelt is not a eandi
dato for. thle repulffian noinlationl in)
1908. We have accepted his emhalilitie
Statemient as to that, but
That he .wvill be the republican nom
inect, by force of cirenimstances, we
have not the shadow of a doubt.
Seven traveling men who, bet ween
them, had Covered every State in the
unionl, met at. Blooilsbilrg, Pa., the

BILLINGSGATE.
Markets the Natural Abode of Strong
Language Says This
Writer.
Loidon Globe.
Tmie mipolished phraseology, native
th-ough not peculiar to this quarter
)f London, has given rise to the pro
verbial use of the nam'c Billingsgate.
'One may term this the Esculine
("ate of London,'' says old Fuller.
'Here one may hear linguas jurga
trices.'' The seventeenth century re
ferences to the "rhetoric" or ob
cene langnygc of the market are
rrequent, and hence foul language it
elf is Called ''billiigsgate.'' In
''Vanity Fair,'' too, Thackeray tells
As how Mr. Osborne cursed Billings
xate with an emphasis worthy of the
place.
It is .urious how markets are tle
natural abode (if' strong language.
vAns the French eq1valent for ''You
Ire no better than a Billionggate fish
tag'' is 'Your compliments are like
those of the Place Maubert,'' thr
Place Maubert being noted for it4
market.
In tiv -ood ohl days the Bililn-s
aite prt11ers seem to have tlioroughily
on.oyed tliem.selves, for one Bagford
writin. in 1715 says: ''This being to
my mind another ancient custom that
hati been omit.ted of late years. It
seems that in former times the por
ters that plied at Billingsgate use(
civilly to entreiat and desire everY

post that stood there in a vacant place.

believe thiis was done in memory of
some old image that formerly stood
there. perhaps of Beluus, or Belin.'
The original porters of Billings
gate belonured to one of the oldest
labor gnilds in thle country, the Fel
lowshiip of P'orters, and at one timne
the carrying work borh at Billings
gate and from the wvharves to th.
warehouses of the city within a cer
tain radius was en'tirely performed
by them.

Washington's Ghost.
Discnssing Washington and his'

toted humorist, said:
''I have made a study of ghosts,

reamed, or saw a vision1, the ghost
f Washington and the ghost of Gen..

"The two ghosts seemed on excel..

" 'George, I'll run you a mile for

''Washington gave Howe a mock
