tracks, between Belmont and Guernsey
streets The little creature. whose name

BURGLARS on THE RAMPAGE,
Burglars or rather house breakers. were
busy in the Fifth ward at an early hour on
Tuesday morning. They entered the houses
of John Baker, Thos. Wetherad, J. II.
| Heburn and Thos. Cummins, by raising
windows. They were a slick set as moth:

the families arose in the morning. Several

taken. They evidently were on the hunt
for money, which they found remarkably

Brother Poorman would attempt To- in
.inuate that the Morrison bill had consid-
erableto do with Gripping the industries OF
this country. That makes one smile who
hnows better. Would a little thing like that
20 per cent horizontal reduction that orig.

| Not if the industries Of this country are on
he solid rock foundation that that great
mapnetist, James &. Blaine, rep
.~rcsents them 20 De. Moth
ug improbable ought 10 cause business to
de-, ress. The colonel knows well enough
hat that bill of Morrison had it passed the

little show for his 20 per cent.
cutting scheme which would no doubt have

ness. Free traders can go just so far in the
Democratic party and then a halt is called.
II is the same way on the Republican side.
1t is doubtful whether the acting President
! of to-day, Mr.. Chester A. Arthur is much oil
a protectionist or not, if what we read

a short time before Carlisle was chosen
Speaker, is true.
