The LAGRANGE Journal admins
tiers q shower bath to John Ireland's
congressional aspirations as follows:
Ex-Governor John Ireland says he
is "out of politics but is opposed to
a commission; that he is no commun-
let" Yes he is out of politics and is
likely to remain out after CHASING
those who favor commission rs
communists John never had any
popularity with the masses, except
what was bestowed upon him for
his persistency in fighting railroads
and bringing them to terms. Now
that he has gone over 10 the corpor-
atoms, it is clear case Of goodbye
John. The Democracy will never
miss him.

Editor Southern Mercury Dallas, Tex:
Your favor of the 10Th inst, max
ing inquiry as to the railroads of
Georgia, is to hand. In reply l have
this to say: Nobody in Georgia is
against the commission, but all are
for it, first and last except the rail-
road men. In answer to your first
question, say tho commission has
done a noble work for the people,
and will do more. The Alliance is
for commission to man. We be-
lieve the railroads would suck the
last drop of blood from the people
but for the commission, and its pow
ers will be extended by the next leg
lature. No man in Georgia dare pop
his name up for office, from governor
down, who is opposed to railroad
commission. II anyone in Texas
claims the railroad commission in
Georgia n failure, let him come to us
and learn his terrible mistake. We
could not be induced by any means
to do away with our railroad commits

New York,s Flower Market.

New York is soon to have what almost
every European city has-a market for
cut flowers that ladies may visit with
out seeing or meeting with anything
that is disagreeable. The idea of having
general flower market at Union square
has by no means been abandoned, still
the project is at a stand still for the
present, and no active steps will be taken
in the matter for some months yet. In
the meantime the Market Florists asso-
citation of New York is making arrange
ments for a temporary market for cut
flowers, which will be situated near
Union square, and which will be opened
early in September.
Hitherto the market for cut flowers
has been situated at the foot of Thirty
fourth street, East river. No woman
would care to visit the neighborhood,
and it was unattractive in every sense
In Paris it is quite the proper thing to
form parties to visit the flower market
in the early morning.
For obvious reasons parties Of that
kind are not formed in New York. The
regular flower market at the foot Of Ca
nal street and North river and the cut
flower market at Thirty-fourth street
are not attractive early in the morning
or late at night. The beauty Of the
flowers is more than offset by the lack
of beauty in their surroundings New

A BLOW AT POOR MEN.
The Republican Party Playing Into the
Hands of the Rich.

EDITORS HERALD For many years
have supported my family by peddling
provisions, vegetables. fruit, etc., from
my wagon. | laid off awhile, and the
other day 1 took out new license and
went at it again, but was run out of the
heart of the city by an officer, who
threatened to arrest and fine me if he
caught me selling there again. This
new wrinkle 1 had never heard of.
They took my money for license to
peddle i'll this city, and then threaten to
put me in Jail if l get caught doing just
what l paid them for the privilege of
doing. If that is not pure meanness,
then do not know what meanness is.
But it is Republicanism. That party
has no sympathy for the poor man in
mis- struggle to support his family and
raise his children. 1t legislates in favor
of the rich merchants who want to
keep prices up and work off old stocks of
stale goods, and who want the city to
help them compel people to take the
stuff off of their hands to keep it from
rotting at their expense. / drove right
from car with fresh goods, but the
people were not allowed to buy from me.
The Republican party is always work.
ing against the poor and in favor OF the
rich. The Democratic party treats a
poor peddler just as well as it does
millionaire. 1t believes in an open field
and fair fght--let the people buy
where they can get the best and
most goods for the least money.
The Republican party wants to
meddle with the laws of trade
and with peoples private rights. In
the east it is used by the fanatics to
pass prohibition laws and Sunday laws,
and it will be doing that in California
in short time.
If that party does not want to lose
thousands of votes in the coming cleo
ton let it remove it's unjust restrictions
on local trade. The people do not in,
tend to tamely submit to have their
rights taken from them. They have a
right to say who they will buy goods
from. There is principle of civil lib
erty involved in it. If one right after
another is surrendered without resist
ance we will soon be abject slaves. Let
us assert our rights. Let us be free.

THEY LIKE PLASTER.
The City Council and Others Visit the
Works.

Yesterday the city council, city at
torney, deputy engineer, and Others
paid visit to the works on Washington
street, where the plaster used in the
new sewers and on the walls of the
schools and other public buildings is
made. These works have heretofore
been described at some length in these
columns. The various products of the
mill have also been highly commended.
E. IL. Hutchinson, superintendent of the
sewers, was one of the party. He made
tests OF the plaster some time ago with
most satisfactory results. Samples that
had been under water twenty-four
hours and one hour in the air stood a
test of 1858 pounds to the square inch.
The best results obtained with the best
Portland cement was $50 pounds. In all
the tests made the home product dis
played better qualities of all sorts than
the imported. The councilmen and
others were much gratifed to find so
excellent manufacturing industry suc-
cessfully set in motion here.

THE HICKORY CLUB
Listen to Good Democratic Doctrine
From Good Democrats.

The Hickory Democratic club, of the
Second ward, met last night at the
board of trade hall on Temple street.
The regular business of the meeting was
set aside in order that speeches might
be heard from prominent speakers pres
ent.
General J. R. Mathews, candidate for
assemblyman, spoke relative to the cleo
tiOn OF United States senator. The
speech was warmly applauded.
Judge Richard Dunnigan was then
introduced. He addressed the audience
as "my fellow sufferers" He explained
this by saying that "when Martin
Aguirre takes $53, 900 year to run the
sheriff's Office, he takes as much out of
your pocket as he takes out of mine."
He charged that District Attorney Kelly
had run the Office at cost of $4,000 a
year more than it's necessary expenses.
He declared that the Republican
party had forfeited all consideration
at the hands of the people of this COM
munity. In the language of the Demo-
cratic county platform, he charged that
the Republican party was responsible
for the conduct Of it's people in office
who have proved faithless to their
trusts. The speaker then spoke on the
state campaign, and his remarks elected
much applause.
Ed Gibson, candidate for sheriff, was
the next speaker. He promised, if
elected, to conduct the Office of sheriff to
the best Of his ability, and would ap-
point as his deputies none other than
reputable citizens and taxpayers.
l.. M. Grider, candidate for recorder,
then addressed the meeting, and he
promised good administration of his
Office if elected, and said that the Office
would not be ruled by any abstract ring
Mr.. Bragg, candidate for assembly
man from the country, was introduced.
He said he had been travelling over the
northern section of the country for the
last twelve days. He spoke principally,
he said, for the other candidates on the
ticket, as the city people could not vote
for him. He declared that Judge Car
penter had said at Monrovia that if all
the rebels and dishonest men were taken
out Of the Democratic party there would
not be enough left to make milestones OF
from Monrovia to Los Angeles. He
declared that the Democrats should
feel this sentence sink deep in
them and they should register their SEN
timent upon it at the elections. The
speaker referred to Ed Gibson as "a man
who came to this country for his health ;
he couldn't either talk or walk-he was

FOR FIFTEEN CENTS.
Mr.. Bulls Brings Suit in a Justices
Court.

Court.
Some people would sooner go to law
than eat. In the township Justices
court, Philip H. Bulls yesterday COM
menced suit against G. F. Wagner to re-
cover fifteen cents. He had sold thirty
nine pounds Of dried pears to the latter
at ten cents per pound. Wagner sent
1915 in payment for the fruit, but this
did not satisfy the seller, who claimed
that his bill was $500. Upon Wagner's
refusal to pay that small amount, Bulls
hired an attorney, brought suit, and
planked down as a first installment of
costs 80 in the Justices court. Whoever
loses the case will have to pay great
deal more than the thirty-nine pounds
OF pears cost, and whoever wins will have
nice little lawyers bill to pay and
only fifteen cents to do it with.
