Show MARSHALL HITS BULLSEYE. Vice-President Marshall has been accused ac-cused of affecting tho plain, blunt citi-I citi-I son and making nseof quaint comment upon passing events for the purpose of attracting attention to himself. One or two more or less painful and embarrassing embarrass-ing episodes in this line apparently cured the Hoosior slatcsm.au of thrust ing himself into the gaze of his fellow mou. He escaped from tho zoo, however, and, astonishing as it may seem to the casual onlooker, lias made a really sensible remark, ono which a groat majority ma-jority of tho people of the United States will agree to without long debate de-bate or taking a vote. Upon his arrival ar-rival at Indianapolis tho other day Mr. Marshall is credited with saying that congress should not attempt any further furth-er alleged reform legislation at this lime, but should' sit down and await tho effect of tho tariff and currency laws. The Vico-Prosidcnt has had a lucid interval. There is much merit in tho suggestion and if tho Democrats aro wise the' will give heed and allow tho business of the country to run in normal nor-mal channels again if that be possible under tho existing order of things. Mr. Marshall must bo ghen credit for saying say-ing at. least one good thing since his elevaliou to Iho Vice-Presidency. |
