Is it SANDER to call attentio to the
fact that the assessment rolls have
been swelled over six millions of dol
lars, at critical time in our city's
prosperity?
Is 1t Islander to call attention to q
large bonded debt made within the
past three or four years, and to point
out what we have received for it?
Is it SANDER to point out the reck-
less management of city affairs?
Is it Islander to point out the polit-
ical bossism that attempts to crush
all opposition and makes use of the
public revenues of the people to
control the ballot box.
Is it SANDER to suggest to the peo-
pie that their best interests-the
prosperity of the city-depends upon
a change of city affairs?
Is it SANDER to call attention to the
one man government that is attempt
ing to rule our fair city without feel

votes and whose money the city Is

If this is SANDER make the most of
it.

KING DoNNeLLY ENRAGED.

The presentation of the Republican
protest AGAINST the unprecedented in
suit oil the Democratic trust TO the Lieut..
Gov in the matter of committee APP
pointmeats in the Senate gave King
Donnelly an opportunity to display his
belligernnt propensities, which, If the
title had not long since been awarded
him, would have justly entitled him TO
the coglomen OF ''pugnacious. Dom
nelly resorted TO every method he could
in his fnriously enraged condition call
to mind, to prevent its being spread up
on the journal of the Senate, but he was
in the wrong, and the knowledge that
he was, and largely owing to his own
carlessness, TO put it mildly, made him
furious all over. There is nothing more
ANNOYING to man than to find himself
IN sorry plight through his own folly.
Donnellv at first was greatly elated with
his position. He WIS vain beyond mea-

A UNIQUE OPERATION.
Skin From the Bodies of a Hundred
Men Engrafted Upon a Mans Leg.

Chicago, Jan. IS.-0ne of the most un-
performed in this city to-day, and one
hundred Knights of Templars gave TO
to the world a notable example of fra
ternal love and heroic self-sacriice,
made in order that sick brother might
be restored to health.
These Knights each suffered the loss
of piece of cuticle which was transfer
red to Sir Knight John Dickerson. The
cancer which had attacked his thigh
was removed some time ago, but so deep
and wide an inclsion had TO be made in
the flesh that nature was unequal to the
task of healing over the gaping wound.
The experiment was tried of engrafting
the skin of some of the lower animals,
but il failed
The surgeon in charge announced to
Dickerson's anxious brethren that If
human skin could be obtained it w-uld
IN all probability save the patients life
and insure his complete recovery. The
question was where to obtain sufficient
skin 10 cover IA square inches of sur
face. The matter was preached in the
commanderv, and TO man the Knights
offered TO submit themselves to the ne
cessary operation.
Those selected by the surgeons have
had to go through sort of training, be-
ir1f, nr.
They were particularly admonished to
refrain from any alcoholic stmulants.
This morning each man took a bath and
then repaired to the Emergency hospi-
tai, where the operation was performed.
Nearly one hundred knights had each
a small strip of skin removed from the
arm or leg TO be transplanted to Dicker-
sons hip. While the surgeons and
others who were present refuse to talk
about the details of the operation, it has
been learned that nearly all the knights
went through it without ainching. Five

being removed; but were quickly re-
suscitated. The surgeons worked hard
for three hours and we're pretty well
tired out when through. While they
