What next will the voracious English
man want to gobble up in this country
For the past sixty days correspondence has
been going on with an agent of an English
syndicate and the Balm Wagon Company, of
Kenosha, with view to buying the plant
1t is said the Balm people have fixed a
price and it now remains to be seen whether
it will be taken or not. The same agent
has also been looking over certain plants in
this city with view to purchasing, but the
negotiations have not progressed SO far as
they have in Kenosha. Racine Times
The servant girl question has taken a
new form in Richmond, Virginia, where a
move is on foot to supplant the present col
ored servants with white ones from the
north. 1t may work to a charm, but we
have our doubts about it, as the servant
girl of the north, mistress of all she sur

may work such radical change throughout
the north as to actually compel some of the
married women and their grown up daugh-
tiers to do their own house work. A con-
dition so terrible that it is appalling to
contemplate without tears of pity.

new company before the further announce
ment is made that another syndicate, also
English, is trying to buy up the Chicago
elevators. Some people may look on lit
tie iealously to see our large business enter
