CITY NOTES.

Our tailor, II. w. Kicker has now es-
tablished himself in the more commodi-
Gus quarters of the Wellhouse block. cor
ner 4th and Lemon streets.
Some petty thief stole fifteen packages
of cigarettes from the store of Manuel
Perez, day before yesterday, and on yes
terday repeated his call, contenting him
self on the last occasion with three cigar
cite packages. 1t is thought they were
distracted while Mr.. Perez was waiting
on customers in another part of his store.
Prof. J. L. Stone, NJ. D., who has been
with us for some months, began his jour
ney home to-day by leaving us for st.
Augustine. The gentleman will return
next season and establish a sanitarium
near Palatka as branch of his famous
Rochester establishment He has alrea-
dy invested largely in our county and
made other preparations for q residence
among us.
Before his honor the Mayor, A. A.
Rogers was arraigned yesterday for
drunkenness, and fined one dollar and
cost. Being unable to pay he was allow
ed few days board at the city's expense.
This is one of the parties who must be
punished for our city's fair fame, and our
Mayor viii probably put these prisoners
to work in the streets for our common
benefit whenever he has sufficient police
force.

MOTOR Copper.

This distinguished gentleman, chief en-
gineer Of the Florida Southern Railway
Company, is again in our city, and has
given us an account of his trip to Sum
terville. where he has attended the trial
OF Burchfeld.
It will be remembered that a few
months ago, this man, after making
threats against the life of Major Copper
and using the vilest language, was struck,
and retaliated by wounding Major Coup
er almost to death at Leesburg. One
wide wound severed the muscles Of an
arm, while another laid open the Majors
side. Nothing but a vigorous constitu-
ton and the tenderest nursing saved the
life of a citizen whose death would have
been a blow to the whole state.
And now, at great expense to himself
and the states witnesses, the injured
party goes. to Sumterville. and the grand
jury finds true bill on a charge Of as
sault with intent to kill. Then, as usual,
the attorney for the defence files an aft
davit that a certain important witness is
absent and the case goes over for six
months. Then, as usual, the states wit
ness will be dead or absent, and the gull
ty will go free, while the injured party
pays a doctors bill, lawyers fees and a
large bill of expenses besides.
We have seen the usual course of such
things in Putnam county, but we fail en-
tirely to see that the fault lies in any
community Northern and Southern.

Too liberal with Federal Aid.

Boston Globe DEM
Congress is becoming entirely too lib
eral with its appropriations. Calamities
of any and every sort of which there can
be the slightest claim that they are Of
national importance are made the excuse
for getting a finger into the national
treasury. The rapacity Of communities
and individual states, their shamelessness
in asking for money, and the laxity of
congress in voting million after million
for local purposes, grow every session and
justify each new step by one that has
been taken before. 1t is time to call a
halt

Good Advice.

Savannah Times.
If the Democratic majority in congress
can devise a judicious tariff reform it
will have the support of not a few Repub-
licans toward attaining that end; but if
the war of the Democratic factions is
maintained, the chances are that propos-
ais for Democratic funeral arrangements
will soon be in order.

Protection to our Hens.

Boston Globe (Dem)
A hen convention-that is, of the rails
ers Of hens-has cackled loudly for pro-
lection against the ill-bred foreign hen,
which presumes to lay eggs in the winter
time, to the injury of the domestic arti-
Gle. The remedy, o hen convention, is
not in high fence, but in more indus
triOus hens.

CURRENT COMMENT.
Profits a few, spotIs the Man.

Profits few, Spotls the Many.
Philadelphia Record Und).
Protection does not increase produc-
ton, but it misdirects production and
concentrates it in fewer hands. 1t is a
cunning system which gives a small
number of people unjust advantages over
all the rest. The great profits of the few
arise from the spoliation Of the many.

Bismarck's AnolOeH.

Washington Star dnd.)
Bismarck is illustrating the maxim
who excuses accuses" He evidently
feels the necessity of making conciliato-
~ explanations, and that he sees the de-
STABILITY of doing so is a proof that he
now recognizes that he made a mistake
at the start. He plainly let his dislike
for democracy capture his judgment, and
in that temper he underestimated the
power Of the rising force in society, not
only in the new world but in Germany
as well. 1t is, in fact, at home rather
than in the United States that his hastv
action has aroused the keenest resent
meht.

A SCRANTON despatch Of the 17th inst,

Eleventh Congressional district met here
tonight and resumed ballotipg for II

lots were taken, making Fl ty-six in ALL

the meeting adjourned until Thursday
morning. Mr.. Cassidy, Of Carbon. re-
ceived seven votes, that being the highest
number cast for any candidate. AID
Beamish. Cbalfant, Price ard Storm re-
ceived as high as six votes each. The
candidates are sll on the ground, attend
ed by number of statesmen and men
of il fluence, and unless the matter is
fixed tonight there will doubtless be a
prolracted contest. Ittakes eleven vote s
to make nomination. The Montour
men Will 90 to Storm as their second

The return trip was accomplished much

places quite difficult; but when We viewed

over which we had passed by moonlight, il
would, to say the least, have caused a

safety, however, aud received the hearty
congratulations of crowd Of tourists who
had been anxiously watching our progress

BIaine's War Record.

Here is Hon. j. O.. Blaine's war
record, as given by E +. Pillsbury,
of Maine, a close neighbor of Blaine,
in a speech at Boston before the
Bay State Club:
"He was the first to be drafted in
his district. But prior to that an
organization had been effected In
Augusta to protect men against the
draft, each member paying $25 to
the fund to hire a substitute if
drafted. Mr.. Blaine out of that
fund hired a asubstitute named Brad
ford. A soft place was foun1 for
the man to remain at the post in
Augusta instead of going to the
front. After a while he was detect
ed in selling for money certain GER
tificates, and he was kept in jail un-
til the close of the war. This con-
stituted Mr. Blaine's service in the
field. Loud laughter. After the
war closed, the men who had been
drawn claimed that the towns and
cities should pay the expense they
had been put to, and Augusta gen
erously voted to pay these men the
money they had paid for substitutes
and Mr.. Blaine got his bond for
5000. But this is not the end. Az
terwards a resolution was put before
the common council of Augusta to
pay Mr.. Blaine 5000, the amount
he had paid tor substitute, and it
was voted and passed, and he paid.
That you can rely on being true
story"
