A PROPOSITION to handle the traffic to
the Worlds Fair on the zone system, is
mooted in the press AS the zone system
differs from that now in vogue, chiefly in
the cheapness of the rates on short dis
tances, it would be welcomed by the dwell
ers within few hundred miles of Chicago.
But it is doubtful whether it would have
much effect in stimulating the travel to
which the enterprise must chiefly look.
namely, the long distance travel from all
parts of the country.

Mr.. BoGY, of St. Louis, an employee in
the Pension Office, has written book on
Washington life and been dismissed there
for. Messrs. Raum and Noble asserting that
his picture of official life is scandalous and
untrue. The conception of a story which is
too strong for Raum's taste is so stunning
that a lurking suspicion intrudes itself
whether Bogy did not make arrangements
with Raum to give his book blazing big
advertisement.

THAT practice of advertising the sale of
delinquent tailor bills has run up against a
decision by an Ohio court that it is ibelous.
The tailors have one sure way Of guarding
against the remedy of bad debts and that is
to furnish their works of sartorial art strictly
for cash on delivery.

BUSINESS REASONS.
How 1t Affects the Retail Dealers
Why All Business Men Should
Vote Againt the LOTTERY


The following from the New Delta, adj
dressed to the business men of New Or
leans, will apply to that class throughout
the State; for if the Lottery should sue
ceed, it viii probably establish lottery
shops in all the larger country towns.
/. The lottery has made combination
with the hoodlums and ward bosses which
means the triumph of misrule and bad
government in the city, and the conse-
auent injury of all interests, public and
private, and all trade, wholesale and retail
. No business man sells anything until
he knows what is the value of the thing
sold No inquiry was made by the Legs
lature into the value of the grant made to
| Morris None of the lottery papers or ora
| tors dare tell you how much the lottery
will make out of the Morris grant. 1t
means 81 for the State and ten ($10) dollars
for the lottery: If the people want a lot
/ terry, let them have one which will give the
| State $40 and keep 81 for themselves
/ 8. The Morris lottery is dishonest and
unfair lottery. Its schemes are rascally
/ and dishonest. In the monthly drawing
/ it proposes every month to sell the public
| 100000 worth of tickets and to give back
IN prizes.only $1.o54 400, thus making the
public lose 945. 400 month.
In the daily drawing the percentage
against the players is so enormous as to
| amount almost to highway robbery.
/ 4. Every dollar that goes to the lottery
from the people of New Orleans is lost to
the retail tradesmen and people OF this
/ city. If there was no lottery to play every
day and every month, the people would
buy more bread and meat, more groceries
1 more clothes, more shoes and better furnl-
ture and household effects. How much
4 they get from the people of New Orleans il
Il easy to calculate. They offer $28O0oOU
| worth of tickets every year in the monthly
i drawings, of which they actually sell about
/ 10 per cent or about S19600,O00. Seven PEI
Il cent of these tickets are sold in Louisiana
/ and 6 out of this per cent in New Orleans
making the sales OF tickets in the MONTH,
drawing in New Orleans amount to 81, ,1I6,
iOO0 per annum. Supposing the tickets solf
in New Orleans draw their share OF tn
. prizes, the ticket buyers would be bound Il
lose $564, ,430 every year
q By actual count of the police authoritie
there are 103 policy shops in New Orlean
were tickets in the daily drawings are sold
s. The receipts of these shops average $60 eacl
every day. or $3.50 for the whole per day
