THE CABLE SYSTEM.
What Work Has Already Been
Done in the CitV.

DOme HI the CltVs
AS fast as any considerable section OF
the new cable system is completed the
street-cars running over the same route
are transferred to its tracks and the old
metal torn up. That no time is being
lost in completing this great piece OF
already been finished.
One track is completed, with the ex-
ception of the curves, from Seventh
street and Grand avenue to Fort and
First, and the other track over the same
route has nearly reached Fort and First.
Both tracks, with the exception of the
curves, are completed from First and
Spring to College street, on Upper Main.
Both tracks, with the exception of
curves, are completed from Chicago
street, on First, nearly to the First street
bridge.
The excavation for the Engine house
a. Downey avenue and Workman street
is completed and the excavation for a
similar purpose on Seventh street and
Grand avenue will be finished by Mon
day night.
The runaways to take up cars
at Seventh and Grand avenue are COM
pleted and all of the roadbed is
graded.
All of the machinery for power and
transmission is contracted for and is to
be delivered within one hundred and
twenty days from the 2Sth OF June last.
In the meantime work will be pushed
along steadily and it is deemed probable
that by the 1st of January, when the
new bridges are constructed, the cable
cars will be across and the entire system
in operation.

benedict, maid and matron. This lecture
has done more to establish the fame OF
Mrs. Potts than any of the series. 1t

Raid ON the Chinese.

A raid was made early yesterday
evening on the Chinese gamblers. A
fan-tan game on Marchassault street was
pounced down upon by Officers Bowland
and Fowle and the dealer and six players
we're secured. The instant the officers
leaped in at the windows the cloth which
covered the table was thrown over the
chips and implements and the whole
bundle whisked out of sight before il
could be seized. Half dozen of the
players got away, and on the way to the
station one of them cut his cue, but was
captured again.

A short, vigorous fight, on broad issues
which the people can understand, is the
best one for the country and the Democ..
racy. The two parties have put forward
thoroughly representative champions in
the field. Republicanism has no truer
representative than James G.. Blaine,
rich through politics, tattooed with jobs,
the special advocates of monopolies and
of trusts, and Allen G. Thurman, who
made himself in the Senate the special
advocate of the people, truly represents
Democracy. It. is Republican against
Democrat, Blaine against Thurman
monopoly against the people.-[N. o.

Protection to Workingme n

In this weeks issue of The Journal of
United Labor General Master Workman
Powderly, in lengthy article on the
tariff, says that the canvass will be made
on the tariff issue: I am protection
ist; if were otherwise 1 would not be-
long to labor organization" Owing to
the number OF members who believe in
high tariff and others who believe in
tariff reduction Mr.. Powderly thinks it
would be suicidal to commit the order to
either school.
Even though the tariff question may
be settled at the coming election, Mr..
Powderly is of the opinion that the work
ingmen will need any amount OF pro-
lection from trusts and monopolies.
There is no Knight of Labor tickets in
the field, he continues, and he therefore,
advises workingmen to hear both sides OF
the tariff issue, and then decide how to
vote.
In a postscript to the article Mr.. Pow
derly says that it was submitted to the
General Executive Board and that it was
unanimously approved.
The bi-monthly meeting OF the General
Executive Board is confining itself to
Routine matters. 1t is likely to adjourn
on Saturday.
T. B. Mcclure was present for the first
time yesterday. He has been through New
York and the East. II never saw such
political enthuaiasm before in all my ex-
perience," he said. Everywhere one
gees the people are either yelling for
Protection or screeching for Free Trade
The politics vary only by localities. We
have nothing to do with politics, but as
far as am concerned believe that the
only tariff for the workingmen is organ
ization, first, last and always. In my
travels l have discovered that sewing
women need protection from the COM
paratively harmless farmers wife. 81
perfect is the system of sending goods
throughout the country to be made w
into shirts, at ridiculously small re
compense, that the poor girl in the cit.
factories are driven into penury or dis
honor. r."-[New York News.
