There has been altogether too much free

for years anarchists agitators have been al

no worse interference than an occasional re-

The fact that there appears to be no oppo
stion to the nomination of Congressman
Boutelle, speaks volumes for his efficiency
and popularity in his own district. Mr..
Boutele has taken prominent position in
some of the leading debates in Congress rep
resents New England on one of the most I'M
portant committees; is hard working, en-
ergetic and able representative and has been
untiring in his labors for the interests of his
constituents.
WANTED TO NOMINATE HIM YEARS AGO.
Somerset Reporter.
A large number of Republicans in Maine
have long desired the opportunity to work
for the nomination of Mr. Bodwell, believing
him to be a man of eminent qualifications
for the high position and well deserving of
the honor. Years ago, had he allowed the
use of his name he could have been nominal
ted by very fattering vote, and now, that
his many friends have the long desired OPP
portunity to show their appreciation of him,
they are not going to be deferred by, the
specious cry Of Ring rule" that has been
raised at every convention. They will work
earnestly and honestly for his nomination,
enlisting, as they have the right to, the intlu-
ence of every Republican they can. and using
every honorable means within their power,
regardless of the worn out bugaboo boss

whatever it is it has proved unsatisfactory

Greece will hardly be rash enough, however,

The Knox county organ of the Knights OF
Labor is doing that organization an irrepara-
Bile injury when it undertakes to defend or
extenuate the riot Of Tuesday night in Chi
cago, and resorts to Misrepresentation to do
it. The dispatches all concur in saying that
the aggressors in that affair were the anarch-
lists and not the police. The captain of the po-
lice force had taken no step save to order the
crowd to disperse, when dynamite bomb
was thrown into the ranks of the police,
killing and wounding tweniy-nine officers.
But this is the way the affair is served up
by this Knox county labor organ:
The people we're returning home, and the meet
ing had dwindled from some 5000 to less than
1,0O0 persons, when band of 200 policemen,
who had been assembled at neighboring station,
dashed into the square and charged on the crowd,
shooting right and left. The attack seems to nave
been without any justification, as the crowd was
not committing any violence and were exercising
their undoubted right to free assemblage ana
free speech.
We don't believe it will turn out to be good
policy for Maine Knights of Labor to under
take to defend what the Chicago Knights
have made haste to publicly repudiate and
denOunce.

CURRENT COMMENT.
THE INCENDIARY PRESS.
N " Pact


The question is coming up for answer in
all our large cities whether we should allow
to editorial cut-throats in their sanctums,
privileges and immunities which we do not
allow them on their platforms. These men,
by their newspaper articles, bring large bod
les of people together prepared for violence,
before one word is spoken by the orators.
We send small squads of police to protect us
against crimes which we have allowed to be
previously concocted in print. Is it not time
to have an end to this monstr0uS preference
of respect for freedom? Talk like that of
Spies in Chicago is no more protected by the
sacred right so know, to utter, and tosargue
freely in defence of which so much noble
blood has been shed, than the roaring of q
Bengal tiger in a forest OH night when deer
and buffalo are scarce.

Boston Transcript.
1t behooyes the more reputable and COIL
sentative OF the American citizens of foreign
birth to diSown compani0nship and sympa-
thy with the reckless set of men who have
disturbed the peace of the city of Chicago.
Some protest from the foreigners among us
who have shown themselves worthy Of the
privileges and opportunities which this coun-
try has afforded them is necessary, or there
may be started into life a party like that
which for a brief space ruled in this State,
and which was based on the theory that
only American-born citizens should hold
positions in the government. The judgment
of cautious thinkers, even those having SYM
pathy with the republican idea that liberty
of speech and of the press must be subjected
to Severer restrictions than have heretofore
prevailed with us, win meet with readfcr ac-
quiescence as the possibilities suggested by
the Chicago experiences are appreciated.

Of this county what it shall do and what
it shall not do.
No honest man or woman in Abilene,
Dickinson county or this state, can af-
ford to uphold or defend in any way
DR.. Phillip Krohn in his reeking infa-
my. He is covered all over with
the scales Of moral leprosy. He is
a contamination to the atmosphere of
this community. He will besmirch
any one who comes in friendly contact
with him. DR.. Phillip KrOhn should
not be allowed to insult the pure wOm-
anhOOd of this city by his polluted pres
ence, and the rotten crowd which sur
rounds him should not be allowed to
mislead the honest and manly senti-
ment Of the public.
All the charges of political conspiracy
in the world will not free DR.. KrOhn
from the filth and stencil which attach
eS to him. But if the republican party
wants to make DR.. Krohn, Or. w. c..
Rohrer and the rest, a party issue, the
party of honesty and decency and NOR
ality will meet the issue. And right

Last Monday, in company with MI.
john JOhntZ, President of the Abilene
School Board, and Superintendent Jew
EFT, we inspected the new school build
ing in the First ward. 1t was the first
day the new school house was brought
into service. 1t is a neat brick build
ing 81 feet wide by 56 feet long, two
stories high, with Is foot ceilings; the
cost Of the building was $3.50. The
lot, sidewalks, furniture, furnaces and
other necessary fixtures will add about
$1,000 mere. The wood work is first
class and reflects credit upon the build
ers, Messrs. Rambo 81 Curtis. There
are four large rooms n by 80 feet.
The stairways are wide, solid and finely
finished with landings l. feet wide. The
building is heated by Ruttan Tubular
furnace and works to the entire salts
faction of the school officers. The
ventilation is aSnear perfect as possible,
There are two cloak rooms on eacL
foOr,'5 feet wide by 20 feet long, and the
building presents a neat, bright anO
attractive appearance, which seemed
to have happy effect on the scholar;
and teachers alike. In the north room
on the first floor, Miss Maggie Wilson
was busy instructing A scholars; We
think a little ones too much of taSl
for one teacher to manage, but the best
of order prevailed. Supt. JeWett sale
the scholars Of that room would have
to be divided and part Of them giveI
the south room on the first floor, Whicl
is not yet i'll use. In the north room
up stairs Miss Minnie Hutchins pre-
sides over 80 scholars. Miss Hutchin'
is one of the most earnest and progress
sive teachers we have in the county
and the short time we were in the room
demonstrated that the Abilene schools
are far ahead Of many graded school
back in the states" In the SOutl
room up stairs we found Mr.. J. S. Fore
principal of the school. In his room ar
40 scholars. The Abilene school boarC
were fortunate in obtaining his services
for he certainly enters upon his dutie
with commendable zeal and desire t
do his part. His reputation as first
! class, competent instructor has been es
tablished in this county for severa
years. The south side'' parents ar
to be congratulated on their fine build
ing and corps of instructors.

Notice to the Public and Patrons of
the Palace Drug Store"

No doubt the news that C. G.. Hawk
has sold his drug stock, and cOntem-
plates retiring from the drug trade,
will be received on the part of his Gus
toners with degree of regret, as Mr..
Hawk is a man Of not only unqueStiOn-
able integrity, but also in every partic-
ular a thorough, goahead business
man. Nevertheless changes are con-
tinually taking place, and while Mr..
Hawk has built up for the palace
Drug Store" a large trade upon honest
principles, it will be the motive and aim
of the writer of this article, interested
in a no less degree in the permanency
of the establishment to maintain that
business by extending to one and all,
the Justice which cOmmendS itself to
the intelligence Of every individual. 1t
is my purpose to grant to the patrons
of the Palace Drug Store the same
kind, careful, and indulgent consider
alton, which they have received at the
hands of my predecessor, and my long
experience in the drug business bears
me out in the assertion that l am here
to dispense drugs and medicines, and to
compound the prescriptions OF medical
practisionerS with accuracy and dis
patch. The platform on which L have,
and shall continue to conduct my bust
ness is summed up in the following
words: lone price all treated alike,
value given for value received" With
charity for all, and malice toward none.
l invite the acquaintance, and the
patronage Of the people of Abilene, and
surrounding country.
Yours truly, w. S. PIERCE,
Successor to c. O.. Hawk.

der the auspices of the WOman's Relief
Corps and Post IS, q. \. r., was, all
things considered, very pronounced
success. 1t opened in the new ArmOry
on Cedar St. on Monday, and continued
during the entire week. Dinner and
supper were served every day to large
number of people. The dining room
was under the management Of a COM
mittee appointed for each day from the
W. r. G. \ skilled cook in the kitch-
en-, sent to the tables warm, well cooked
meals, which rapidly disappeared before
the appetites of the hungry visitors.
The Armory hall was attractively
decorated with flags, large and small,
and a stage erected for the various en-
tainmentS of the evenings. The dOna-
tons of fancy work, fancy articles of
all kinds, cigars, apples, flour, corn
meal, candy, in fact everything sub
stantial and ornamental was marvellous
to behold and a credit to the generosity
of the community.
Time and space will not permit a
complete list of the articles given,
some of the larger ones, however, were
too bulky to be overlooked. For in
stance. in the center Of the room stood
a Harrison road wagon, presented by
Berry Bros. upon which chances were
sold at fifty cents each, and on Saturday
night was drawn by 4. l.. Russell. The
same firm also presented a harrow and
cultivator, which will be drawn some
time during the week.
Bonebrake & Rice gave a large gaSO-
lene stove. fitted with oven and fixtures.

S. W. Pierce, Of Junction City, sent
a Domestic Sewing Machine that ".
S. Stambaugh was lucky enough to hold
the winning ticket in.

scented baby cab, which was taken by
a number in the hands of Mr.. KOTn,
living south Of town.
J. Schopp donated three sacks of
flour and two of corn meal and q. VIC,

ted themselves well, and did their
teacher credit on Wednesday evening
in songs and recitations. Thursday
evening they again appeared in Mrs.
