The daring burglary committed
last week on the Famous dry goods
store has caused considerable ex-
element. The fact that the rob-
bers left the iewelry store next
door unmolested has also caused
some comment; but the explans-
ton is simple. 1t is the only
store of the kind in Kirksville
where goods can be bought cheap
er than stolen. Hart & Son keep
it. Come and see them.

The Negro Alliance Success.

We warned the West Tennessee far
mer, when they met in convention at
Memphis to organize for the purpose
Of reducing cotton picking from vs.
to so cents per hundred, that it was a
game two could play at and they
would get the worst Of it. The AL
lance demagogues have been busy
organizing the negroes into the ALI
ance for political purposes, and now
Sanlbo sees his chance to make some
thing out Of the Alliance. The
Memphis meeting served the pur-
pose Of arousing them to action and
the power Of such organization. Now
they are holding Alliance meetings
and resolving not to pick pound of
cotton for less than 81. 100 per hundred
and they will get it. The negro will
stick closer 10 the secret oath than a
white man. The cotton crop is made
and farmers will have to pay the dol
lar or lose the cotton.

Wilson's Minstrels.

Geo. Wilson, for the first time since
he has been coming to GAINESVILLE,
had a very small audience last night.
While people had confidence in the
contractors and builders who pro-
nounced the opera house safe, they
did not feel like taking risk. AS a
consequence there were not over two
hundred people on the first floor. The
show, on this account more than
anything else, was drag. 1t takes
a good audience to make an actor do
his best, and this they did not have
last night. The. leading features on
the program were Napier and Mar
zella, the bar grotCsques, the singing
of Wilson's quartette, the work of
Geo. Wilson and ThOs. Donnelly and
Rowe, the new clog dancer. This is
Rowe's first season with Wilson,
and he does some of the best dancing
ever witnessed at Elders opera
house. Under more favorable cir
cumstances than those of last night
the troupe would give an excellent
entertainment.

death rate resulting from the grippe
The order has paid out 100000 on
deaths caused by this disease lately,
which has increased the cost of insu-
rance this year to SIG per 81 900, and
yet this is very cheap insurance.
1t has, however, exhausted the treas
ury and the object of the increased
assessment is to replenish the treasury
and reduce the cost of insurance next
year to $l2 per 81 ,00O The organiza-
ton has up TO date paid out $35,00O,-

Free Bridges, Free Roads and Free Fer
ries.


Much has been said recently in
reference to free bridges, free roads
and free ferries. / suspect few have
been talking much and loud that
they might be thought to be many.
The Mayor and Aldermen have been
censured for acting upon their con-
victions Of right, in opposition to a
petition signed by number of citi-
zens. All men, even those londest
in their censure, must respect the
board more than if they had surren-
dered their convictions at the bid
ding of the petitioners. They have
instead set an example and estab-
iished a precedent which future
boards may well observe-which
they must observe if they go into
Office jealous of their honor. The
aldermen are chosen from the several
wards because of their supposed fit
ness for the position they take upon
themselves an obligation to consider
the best interest of the city, and to
do this intelligently they must study
its needs and resources. AS honest
men they are presumed to have done
this, and yet others who have as
sumed no obligation, most of whom
are totally uniformed on the sub
ject, presume to instruct the board as
to the expenditure of large sum OF
money, and seem Mortified that they
do not promptly obey. Now, indi-
vidually, should not have objected
II the board had thought proper to
make the contribution asked for if
that had been the end of it
but this expenditure would have
been useless unless followed by
larger one; and it was
boldly announced that this was only
the entering wedge; that the purpose
was to free all the bridges, roads and
ferries. 1t is not strange that no one
has essayed to solve the problem how
all this can be done without further
taxing the people-already taxed
Observation-Disclosures the problem
is manifestly insoluble. l hold that
the tax for keeping up bridge, road
or ferry falls in the right place when
1t falls upon the people who use it.
To free them an unnecessary and
burdensome tax must be imposed on
every interest of the city, and this
without assurance of additional trade
as an offset. 1t is persistently insist
cd that men in favor of free bridges,
free roads and free ferries be elected
TO the next board. Better elect good,
sensible men, uncommitted to pre-
concerted schemes, pledged only to
do the right as they see it, after care
full deliberation in view of the limit
cd resources and varied wants of the
city. An alderman's position, if an
honest man, would be embarrassing
indeed If he should go into Office
pledged to free bridges, etc, pledged |
at the same time to have an eye sim
gle to the welfare of the city, and |
should find, after careful revision of
the situation, that his pledges were
in conflict. He may mock at the OBJ
legation OF another when it stands
between him and some ill-considered
measure which ne favors ii will
wear more serious and earnest as
pect when it shall come TO him with
the stern demands of duty. X.

Attacks Its Owner and Inficts Injuries.
From which He Dies.

LOUISVILLE. Sept. Sat Elizabeth
town, Colonel viii lam Wilson has died
from injuries inflicted by maddened
bull.
Wilson went into the pasture to have
the bull, fine Jersey, battered for ex-
hibition at the fair. When he went
into the pasture he was in the habit Of
carrying shotgun, loaded either with
blank cartridges or small shot, with
which he inundated and controlled the
beast. On this occasion he had the gun,
and, as the bull started toward him, he
fred one barrel, but, for some reason,
the cartridge did not go off. Before he
could get out of the way the bull was on
him, and, running rapidly, threw him
ten feet in the air. He was picked up
and carried to the house. Two ribs
were broken, and he was badly bruised
about the body.
