A CITPS SEMI-CENTENNA RY.

Allegheny City, Pa, has just COM
grand civic and military gathering,
and a gorgeous display of the vari-
Gus organizations of the city and
Examinations and extensive fire
works in the evening. The question
of her annexation to Pittsburgh is
now under consideration, and the
Pittsburgh Gazette suggests the
name of Allegheny in the event of
the union of the two cities, using as
arguments the more musical sound
of the name, and the fact that Allie
ghany is a native of the country and
a name used by the aboriginal in
habitants while Pittsburgh is an
English Importation.
THE ORIGINAL PACKAGE DUES
TON IN KANSAS.
A great anti-original package con-
vention was held at Topeka, Kansas,
last week with over 5000 delegates
present from all parts of the state.
1t was a representative gathering,
representative of the education, the
morality, the good citizenship and
the progress of Kansas. The atten-
dance was so large that no one audi
ence room in the city would accom-
modate the crowd. Hence it was
necessary to divide it. One meeting
convened at representative hall, the
other was held in the senate chamber.
Later it was found necessary to hold
two overflow meetings in the city
churches, SO great was the crowd
that desired admittance.
Many vigorous speeches were
made and resolutions were adopted
strongly condemning the original
package traffic and demanding of
Congress the early passage of the
Wilson bill. In addition there was
statistical article showing the effect
of prohibition i'll that state and con-
lTdSllIlS hdHSdS Will several states
which have license system, notably
Nebraska, their next door neighbor
The Topeka State Journal editori-
ally says on this question: The
amount of petty crime and misde-
meanors Ill this city has already
doubled on account of the original
package houses. A single case of
wife beating and assault is going to
cost the county several hundred dol
lars If the original package houses
are allowed to run, Shawnee coun-
tvs court expenses will be increased
by at least $4,000 year"
Topeka is city of 81 900 inhab-
itants and one of the cleanest and
prettiest cities in the West There
was as little rum-selling and drunken
ness there before the original package
decision, taking the population into
consideration, as there is in ST.
Johnsbury today. In the full light
OF these facts some people are clamor-
ing for resubmission of the prohibi-
tory law in that state just as they
are In this

The Lodge election bill or force bill
is meeting with much opposition in
the Senate and there are at least a
dozen Senators who are opposed to
it on general principles, notably
Senator Paddock of Nebraska Gov
Gordon of Georgia characterizes it
as sectional and shameful legislation
for which there is no possible justi-
fication nor rational excuse. He
further says if it becomes a law he
will favor the use of the boycott as a
means of selfpreservat ton and COM
mercial independence.

thinks the Lodge bill one hundred
fold more dangerous than free trade;

opposed to sugar bounties and even

rarlncr i}oyd's Views,

Hon. Weir Boyd, formerly II member
of the Georgia senate, said in II recent
interview:
''As to the tariff, every sensible, jus,
man knows it needs readjustment. The
idea of protection, rs incorporated in
the present tariff laws, means the MAX
ing of the rich richer and the poor poorer
and discrimination in favor Of the rich
against the poor. Furthermore, it is
wrong because it raises greater revenue
from the people than is necessary to the
economical administration of the gov
eminent.
SIN the event that the unlimited. coin
age of silver, with the present outstand-
ing volume of currency, doesn't furnish
sufficient money to transact the bust
ness of the people, then it is the duty of
the government to issue a sufficient
amount of greenback currency to supply
this deficiency. In the event that this
cannot be done, then, perhaps, it would
be wise to adopt the subtreasrlry system
as advocated by the alliance, under
proper limitations, to meet the neceS-
sites Of the people. don't see why the
farmers should not be allowed to bank
on the staple products of tho farm, as
the bondholder and gold shylocls are
now permitted by law to bank upon
their gold and bonds 1t was admitted
by statesmen and fnanciers, in the late
debates in congress on this question,
that there is not sufficient volume of
currency to do the business of the

Aunt 'Stasia stood watching the re-
treating party until they were out of
sight; then she turned savagely to her
nieces:
ssMrs- Harding's got away my city
boarders," she snarled, s'and it's all
your fault! Come into the house, you
what think of you"
Prue drew herself up. while Cherry
clung timidly to her arm.
Aunt 'Stasia, said she, s.you must
not address us in that way. We are no
longer helpless and friendless- Mr..
Allen has asked me to become his wife,
and Calvin Harding has told Cherry,
here, that he has loved her this long
time, but that you never would allow
him to come to the house and plead his
cause. 1t is settled that we are both to
be married on the same day next Octo-
Der, and from this day your tyranny
over us must end"
''Or," interposed Andrew Allen,
bravely, ''wen marry them tomorrow"
'Pm glad ont from the bottom of my
heart" said Uncle Jonathan, still hold
ing up his lantern like single-eyed
Cyclops- ''Come here, and kiss me,
gals!'
But Aunt 'Stasia, without vouchsafng
single word. stalked grimly back into
the house. To lose, at one blow, the
city boarders and the faithful damsels
who had served her so long, without
money and without price, was too much
for her philosophy. Nor did it at all
tend to console her when Uncle Jona-
than afterward remarked:
'.It's all your own fault. Anastasia"
