sulted in a victory for the latter. About

their delight at the second defeat of the

were blackened, teeth knocked down their
throats, and the little boys were picked up

WHAT MAY BE EXPECTED generally I'M
der the Harrison regime differs very lit.
lie from the condition of affairs under
the present Administration. and is very
firmly set forth by the Philadelphia
North american as follows
There will not be two policies nor ten policies
IN administering the internal affairs Of the
United ststes. There will be but one policy.
1t will be a national policy, the same in Maine
as in Texas, in Pennsylvania as in oregon-the
same everywhere. We hope this direct answer
10 the question put and discussed by our South.
ern contemporaries will prove conclusive. We
are one people. Whatever concerns man in
Maine concerns him in Mississippi, Whatever
Federal law operates in Pennsylvania operates
in Maryland. We have no peculiar people In
this country, no class, caste, nor condition
which have any more or different rights one
than another Hence the policy Of the new Ad'
minstraton will be uniform-natonal. IL will
not be more liberal toward one section than II
is toward another. This we think good sort OF
policy, So far as citizens are concerned we are
tO recognize no wards no orphans, no infants.
The new Administration will deal with all oti-
zens as equals before the law, and 1t will strive
20 be just toward all, wherever they may be.

fare at Second street, and between Sey-

with a number ahead of it. The culvert
at Ninth street was broken and there was
a block.
Mr.. kirkpatrick looked the conductor
square in the face, and the latter dropped

rick, there was block at this place and
you could go no further, yet you delber-
ately collected these passengers money.
That's my orders, replied the con-
ductor
well, I am going to take hand in
this block myself" said the merchant,
and he hurriedly left the car.
The conductor laughed, but he didn't
know Mr.. Kirkpatrick The indignant
passenger walked back TO Front street.
Patrolman Mcguire, off the fourth dis
trict, was standing at the northwest cor

Mr.. Kirkpatrick reached that point
somewhat out of breath, but thoroughly
enthused.

and had reached the steps when Mr.

that the votes of undecided floaters were
purchased in Indiana for $25 each. Dis
tance in this instance lends enchantment
to the view and our distant contemporary

that enjoyed by the average Indiana
voter. We hope the Zeitung will hasten
to correct the error it has given foreign
publicity to, because if it is generally
known in Europe that ordinary ballot
box votes are worth $25 apiece in this
country we will have such an influx OF
foreign emigration that Europe will be
depopulated. Two dollars is the stand
