THE TALK OF A TRAVELLER

Back from a Western Trip with u Light

YES" said the travelling commercial, as
he pulled o tobacco cigar out of his waistcoat
pocket. I'm back in town again.
Am I glad I'm here ? Certainly not. 1
would rather DO out in baok-number towns,
York, flirting with all the pretty girls in
town and getting up at 8 A. M. to catch q wild
train for the next village. Delightful life !!
continually and although it is on out 1f-the-
frying pan-into-th IN -tire at times, it's variety,
and we all like that.
But I notice that they. have not hung up
wrote to Mayor Hewitt some time ago about
it. l wonder II it would do any good to 20
and see him now? Perhaps he didn't get my
letter. Well, let it go at that.
BY, the bye. want to tell You Of a funny
snap I heard just before I left Strawberry
Point, Ia. There was q book agent stopping
at the same hotel with me who sold family
Bibles. 1t was q monstrous book and weighed
over fifteen pounds. .
He started one morning on his weary round
of pleasure, and as he had canvassed the
town pretty thoroughly without luck. he
took to the country road. and after walking
o mile or 50 spied q beautiful country resi-
dence.
He entered the gate with light heart and
lighter pocketbook. A little dog ran down
the shaded gravel path and commenced 10
dislocate his clothing He let the Bible drop
on the dog and killed him.
Then he assembled the steps of the country
mansion. rang the bell, entered and sole to
the mistress the book that killed her dog.
"say, but 1 have q lot Of good things 10
tell you, boys, but I reached here with only
SO cents. I'll go up and settle with my house.
| See you all to night"
And the traveller smiled. kissed his hand
to the boys and strolled out of the hotel.

CONTRACT LABOR

There seems to be good ground for the
complaint of the Central Labor Union that
the law against the importation Of foreign
laborers under contract is not properly en-
forced.
The permission to land given to the italian
marble-cutters, engaged and shipped by
agents of q Boston and Vermont firm whose
men were ON a strike, was a fragrant case of dis
regard of the law. Distrlct-Attorney WALKER
has promised to look into this matter. It
might be well for him to inquire If any men,
Der Of the Eastern firm is a relative or friend
of either of the Emigration Commissioners,
upon whose report the imported foreigners
were admitted.
1t is pretty hard on the workingmen to pay
a tax of Al per cent. on all imported necessi-
ties, and then nave competitive ''pauper
labor" imported free.
