Martin in Spartanburg Herald. 1 A Few Samples of American Justice, i Florida Times-Union. Justice Howard of the appellate j division of the supreme court of the 1 State of New York, warns us that substantial justice is not given by! the law as administered in this country and declares "the road to justice must be made straight, short j < and simple" without "toligate*. bri-1' grands or false signboards" to pro- j vide tribute, or a revolution is im-i pending. Here is a warning the j' pifblic should heed and it is all thej {more impressive because given with- j out denunciation or suspicion of prolitical or selfish purpose.

Greensboro's commissioners played In good luck with the street paving. It was all finished np the day before j Christmas and the only kick one hears now is that every street in town ?and outside?is not likewise paved. Tender what is known as the Hunter' ordinance, it is up to property owners | when it comes to paving. When 60 per cent of these petition the city to pave a street, the city goes at it, these property owners paying a goodly share of tbe expense. x- C-S r.

Wherefore there is now re-, ; lated the example of the crudest re) partee ever indulged in by man or | woman, says the Popular Magazine. It was in a western city, a place which had risen to the dignity of having "fashionable suburbs" in which the . j inhabitants resented the arrival of people "who did not belong." One day there appeared in the community a wo. man who had lots of tact in dealing I with her neighbors. She called and . called and called on the women in the 5 suburb which was "fashionable" and ? strange to relate, she could never find l! them "in." ; I One woman particularly disliked her t j and was never to be seen. At last the .: newcomer met the one who had avoid>. ed her in such marked manner. 51 ''My dear," said the avoider, "it is 3 such a pity that when you call I am always out?always." j Responded she who had been snubt bed; ? "Out of your home?or your head?" i "Why, yes* dear but?" i "Hurry, mother! Eidth is going on . the warpath with the Indians." i "Edith?" echoed the mother. "Why 3 how do you know, dear?" "Why, I saw her just now with a big <box and a brush, painting her face." He was Justly Suspicions. A big mass meeting was being held in BlimvUle. a The wellgroomed and slick-looking _ individual who was trying to sep-erate & the town from its money arose to . make a few remarks. r "Fellow-Citizens," he opened up, ; "apropos"? a "Jist a minute, mister," said a small_ ish, sandy-whiskered man. A look of annoyance crossed the speaker's face. ""What can I do for you?" he asked. "I have here a pocket edition of Webster's Dictionary, and I want to look up that word 'apropos.' I don't inj tend to sit here and let some oil-toni gned stranger slip one over on us," re| plied the sandy-whiskered man. ! "You are a utile suspicious, 1 oec ^! said the speaker. "Now, that word to ? which you refer means"? r : _ i "Never mind what it means" enjoin. ed the little man. "I'm looking it up c I let a smooth talker sell me a unicycle _ one time. He said it w?s the la?t word El In conveyances, and then I paid the frieght on it from Chicago I found T had purchased a wheelbarrow."? u I | Judge. ,fj ^Eureka Violin Agency r| Spartanburg, S.
