The arrest of Ward has been followed by
the arrest of ex-President fish of the Marine
Bank, and officers are searching for express
ident Emo of the Second National bank,
whose speculations with funds of that bank
would have ruined it had not his father come
to the rescue. Ward by his own confession
is swindler for whom there is no room for
sympathy. His swindhng was deliberate,
and he knew that his operations must inevi-
tably lead to the ruin of large number of
the persons who entrusted him with their
money. 1t looks also as if President Fish's
operations had been almost as deliberate and
scarcely less wicked than Wards. The
books of the Marine bank ssese TIe =. ss Grant
1.,i..a 5. Fictitious entries are prominent
feature of both. Emo probably borrowed
his banks funds with the intention of re-
turning them, and they have been returned
by his father. There is more room for sym
pathy in the case of Emo than in the cases
of Ward and Fish, and his course does not
imply SO deep moral turpitude. Neverthe-
Jess it deserves punishment.

APrettyWoman's Secret,

:
Fear of discovery, when she resorts to
false hair and dyes, is a source of con-
slant anxiety to her. The very persons
from whom she most desires to hide the
likely to make the discovery. But there
Is no reason why she should not regain
and retain all the beauty of hair that was
her pride in youth. Let her use AYERS
Hair VIGoR, and, not only will her hair
cease to fall out, but new growth will
appear where the scalp has been denuded:
and locks that are turning gray, or have
actually grown white, will return to their
pristine freshness and brilliance of color.
AYERS HAIR VIGoR cures
Hereditary Badness.
GEORGE MAYER, Flatonia, Teras,was
bald at % years of age, as his ancestors
had been for several generations. One
bottle of HAIR VIGoR started growth of
soft, downy hair all over his scalp, which
soon became thick, long, and vigorous.

Consider This.

Are you going to keeping house this
spring or summer? Are you thinking
of replenishing or changing your house
fixtures? If you are, it might not be out
of place to call your attention to the
fact that Jensen, Bliss & 20. have just
put in a large and complete stock OF
everything in the house-furnishing line
kept in first-class hardware stores. 1t is
useless to attempt to enumerate all they
have; this paper isn't large enough TO
hold the list. But you just call in at
their store, ON the corner of Holiday
and Eighteenth streets, and see for your
selves. They also have the largest and
best assorted stock of gardeni ing and
prospecting tools to be found anywhere
in the city. AS for prices-well, if they
don't prove to you that they can do as
well by you as anybody, then the writer
of this don't know what he's talking
about.

Boycott His Bran ds.

The united workingmen of Indian
apolis are engaged in a just war on the
Journal of that city and they are also
boycotting the "scab" cigar factory of
Stefen. In this latter case the working
men of Denver can be of great assist
ance, inasmuch as the proprietor of the
factory boasts that he has large trade
in Denver and Colorado.
A private letter received in this city
from one of the active men of Indianap-
oils contains the following information ::
"You must understand that we are
also boycotting Steffen's cigars. He is
the same old "scab', as when you were
here. We have knocked the tail off his
business here, but he has an export trade
that we must reach through our friends
elsewhere. He sends large shipments to
the far west, and Denver is one of the
points upon which he brags. His brands
are the Bonanza ten-cent cigar, and
five other brands of fVe-centers, as fol-
lows: Steamboat 'Yawl,' Pilot Bull
Dog and Seal of Indiana None of
them are union label, but all Of Steffen's
boxes are branded: Factory No. Ill,
Sixth District of Indiana He also has
ia brand with an envelope containing the
address of Denver man who handles
his goods. l cannot learn his name.
"You will do US favor by putting the

If during long voyage at sea one
passenger should save up cask of water,
and the general supply at length became
exhausted, and the ships company were
nearly crazed by thirst, the possessor of
the only water aboard could sit by his
cask and say, Hands off unless you
pay me dollar a drop" 1t would be
his property.
AS the water monopolist on the ship
has. a right to use his own to the best

Every Year the Gulf Wtden,.

The great French Revolution, that for
30 long time was regarded as horror,
we now consider a Just retribution. For
hundreds of years the silken aristocracy
of France rode booted and spurred, by
the grace of God, over the oppressed
labor of that land. There was no abuse
too coarse, no cruelty too refined, for this
class to practice on the wretched, unclad.
poverty-sheltered and half-starVed null
titudes on whom they lived and fattened.
The storm came.
We are introducing to this country the
same system. Every year the gulf
widens between the very rich and the
very poor. While millionaires thicken,
every day it becomes more difficult for a
laborer to work his way up from poverty
to competence. The two classes grow
more clearly defined, and the line of de-
marcation more difficult to cross.
We have brought all of the European
system of slavery save that which makes
it or has su far made it secure, and that
is the standing army with its millions of
bayonets ready and willing to quiet DIS
content with powder. How our masters
purpose holding their own without mus
kets is for them to answer.-Donn Piatt.
