Jack the Fire Fiend.

To the Editor Of the TELEGKAN-HERLAD
Grand Rapids is undergoing 4 craze
which is as great a mystery as Jack
the Ripper, the London woman
murderer, but here it it is Jack the fire
fierd, whose mania is for burning
barns, for there has been no less than
eight or nine barns set on fire within
the past two weeks, aud most of them
in the south part of the city, and the
fiend has baffied our police and detec-
tives, and the citizens should do all IN
their power 10 bring the vile wretch 10
justice. 1t has got To such point that
something must be done, or IL will re-
suit in a great loss of property, and no
telling but human lives. No punish
ment is too great for such sneaking
william, and If our citizens will do their
part toward aiding our able officers, Il
will not be long before the miscreant
Will be caught in his hellish act, and
dealt with as he justly deserves.

history of the agitation and decided
that gamblers, spectators and deal

He makes another demand tor a 10

to Chicago, and after contrasting the
prosperous condition of the railway 8
with that of the pOverty-stricke farm
ers, headds: 1.-THE people of Nebraska
do not want to fight the railways,
they desire that they shall prosl Ell out
they demand that the railroads Shall
no longer Cypress them as they have
done. They demand that roads shall
give them fair and reasonable rates
SO that they may obtain just returns
for their labOrs and investments.
The people and farming classes es-
recially, are aroused now as they
never have been before, and will not
cease their demands until justice has
been granted. He says: 81 again
