How the Cause of Labor Lost Valuable
Champion.

Chicago Po t.
"My wife doesn't speak to me this
morning." remarked a guest at the
Palmer House Saturday, wiping the
remnants Of an cye-opener from his
| lips. You sec she's o crank on the
labor question, and is forever dinning
into inyears the wrongs Of tlieoppressed,
as if | were responsible. Last week we
took Statc-street grip for Englewood.
| Directly opposite us sat a hard-looking
son Of toll, his clothes spotted with
mortar. His hat was pulled down over
| his eyes and he was evidently asleep.
Instantly my wifc's eyes flashed.
"''Therc, she began, 'look at that poor
man. Been working all day for miser-
able pittance, and 50 hard as to be com
plctCly tired out
's'0ughtt to be glad he can sleep on his
way home and get so much rest ahead
observed
"'Yes, that is Just like you men, she
snapped back. It's shame. Here we
are going ont TO enjoy ourselves at din
ner, while there is poor man, just as
good as we are, too tired to keep awake.
Poor fellown
"'Pcrhaps you might have little
sympathy for me if | carried hod,
yenturod.
"'Therc you 20 again. Nothing but
sarcasm the poor and lowly get from
yon. Oh, dear me, if | We're onlya man
Id do something's almost cried
I'D 90 TO Congress and make some laws
to pay the poor laborers better wages.
That's what I'd do. Just look at that
poor, overworked and underpaid man 7
And her eyes flashed again.
Just then the conductor came to coll
lect the fares, and my wife whispered
to me to pay the laborer's fare and let
him sleep. But the conductor tackled
the son of toll first. Several pushes fail
ing to wake him, the conductor shook
him roughly, at which my wife was
about to utter remonstrance when the
poor man opened his eyes, looked at the
conductor and said:
'Wazzer mazzerT
Il smiled, but my wife, not hearing
distinctly, leaned a little forward.
"'Fare,' said the conductor, sharply.
"aFare me (hic) eye, replied the poor
man, with a leer at my Wife, who, just
beginning to grasp the situation, turned
red
"'Give me your fare or get off, said
the conductor, shaking the poor man
again.
80, fare me (hic) eye! Amt (hic)
got no fare. Go to (hic) II Whoopl
Les all (hic) all take a (hic) drink
@'I'he conductor, by way Of reply,
grabbed the poor man and the next
moment landed him in the street. /
managed to keep from smiling during
the rest OF the trip by holding my lips
between my teeth. My wife never opened
her head, and she hasn't spoken to me
since. Women hate to get worsted in
an argument, you know"

What DIR. Quinby Would Have the Gov
ernment Do.

Etiifo, Gazette and Journal: It has heen pro,
posed that the United States should pur-
chase certain amount of gold as well as
silver for coinage. | propose that
the United States shall purchase all the
gold and silver that may be offered paying
for the bullion its market value in United
States notes. Then coin the bullion. Then
issue two more notes for every dollar of
gold or silver that may be coined. This
makes three to one. This is the basis Of
the greenbacl currency; l00,0000o0 Of gold
in the treasury supporting 346,001000
Of United States notes. Every one CON
siders these notes to he safe. This is also
the basis of Bank of England notes.
In this way the issue of currency would
be wholly separated from the banking sys-
TEN, which is very desirable.
The gold and silver coin belonging to the
government should then be distributed in
sub-treasiries To all Of the principal cities
Of the land, SO that any man could easily
exchange notes for coins at his pleasure.
Where did the recent financial trouble
Originate9 In the Bank of England,
which is based on gold alone. Where did
the relief come from From the Bank Of
France which stands on both gold and
silver. France could spare the gold be-
cause She had vast quantities of silver to
much demand for gold for export from
England, he bank has TO raise the rate of
discount and 50 disturbs the market for
everything else.
THIS whole matter Of the silver currency
is struggle Of interest, not a struggle Of
political economy, between the great mass
Of the people and few money dealers.
The policy here advocated sin the interest
of the nation.
We have never had as yet good sound
financial policy, and think that this will
be one. W. E. QuiSBY.

FRANKLIN II. ColTpNs LETTER TO THE
.'MoRNfSG NEWS" NOVEMBER 25
Sin: Ii is due to this community and also
to my party, my friends and myself that
an explanation should be made of the
recent troubles at the polls Of the twelfth
division Fifth ward.
1t was with very great reluctance that |
consented to accept the appointment Of in
spector, well knowing the duties, response
bility and annoyances that necessarily are
attached to the positions having served
many times as an election officer. ] was
induced to accept the late appointment,
after ! learned the names of my probable
associates, all Of whom | knew and be
lieved to be qualified, agreeable gentlemen.
The first difficulty developed soon after
opening the polls tthc minority judge hav
ing assumed charge of the dating stamp,
to which did not object as q matter of
courtesy when Elwood Clarkson, colored,
of No. 2307 West Seventh street, handed in
his ballot with his tax receipt. The tax
receipt was examined by MIR. Voshell, Re
publican Judge, and myself, and pro-
nnunced good and valid. 1t was then taken
by Mr.. Carpenter, Democratic Judge, and
he declared tito be fraudulent receipt.
| then asked Mr.. CARPENTER to be kind
enough to point out to Mr. Voshell and
myself any difference or clue by which q
fraudulent tax receipt might be reliably
identified, and assured him that ! would
not knowingly accept one.
The reply received was: That is my
business and none of yours" Mr.. Carpenter
then placed Mr.. Clarksons tax receipt in
his pocket and kindly informed us that:
Il will not sign the returns or permit my
clerk to do So" e
then relieved Mr.. Carpenter of the care
of the stamp and requested MIR. Voshell to
examine the tax receipts, and to stamp
them when correct and the ballots were de-
posted.
Mr.. Carpenter was permitted to examine
all Of the receipts, hut not entrusted with
exclusive possession after the Clarkson
affair. The apparent genuineness of Clark
sons receipt will be proven beyond doubt
at the proper time.
A pink poll-tax receipt is equivalent to
red flag in the face of maddened bull,
when presented at many Of the polls in
this city. II is distinction that ought
not to be tolerated. 1t was evident to me
and my Republican associates that MIR.
Carpenter was under instructions, and we
thank him for an early development
As to the rejeetinn Of certain naturaliza-
tion papers, ! am fully prepared to answer
at the proper time and place.
If a Jealous Republican must be termed
an offensive partisan so consider yours
truly, FRANKLIN b. CoLToN.

measure before the election, more or less
pnblicly, the people of the country ac-
