1 Chicago Hod Carrier Drew tho Line at
Being Put In Order by IA Woman.
One of the hod carriers at work on
orick building out in the suburbs
climbed up 10 the first story Thursday.
Then he fell and the hod, the bricks and
The ladder fell on him When the debris
aad been pulled away the hod carrier
was lying face downward on the pave
nent stones senseless. There wasn't q
drug store or doctor within half mile
A bricklayer put on his coat and tore for
the nearest patrol box. Meantime the
bod carrier was lying there in a pool of
blood, apparently thinking about moth
ing in particular.
The boss was Tuning about, kicking
blocks of wood into the street and
swearing Mt the laziness of the police.
The big plasterers who could drive
spike with their fists were standing
around as helpless rs children. At this
time Young woman in blue coat came
across the street She was pretty and
rosy, with a lot of yellow hair drawn up
tightly from her temples, and she had
most decided look in her bright blue
eyes. She brushed the big fellows aside
and asked briskly. What's the trouble
here, men"
Zone OF the boys has busted himself
wide OPEN said the boss politely.
Let me see,' said the pretty girl,
dropping on her knees beside the hod
carrier. She took off dainty kid glove
and with her little white hand felt the
mans skull.
mo bones fractured here she said,
looking up at the group around her.
Then she noticed the pool of blood "
ing beside the mans right arm, and
whipping out Il pair of scissors she
ripped up the coat sleeve and the sleeve
of the flannel shirt.
Goodness" she said IAN artery has
been cut. Give me a piece of Irvine,
quick.
The boss pulled piece of coarse string
from his coat pocket and handed it to
the girl. She drew it around the mans
arm, made Il loop knot, thrust pencil
into the loop and twisted it until the
cord sank deep into the flesh.
You hold this she said to the boss,
and the big man knelt down and grabbed
the ligature. Then she had some water
brought out She washed the scalI
wound in a jiffy. Then she cut among
the loose flesh with the scissors and with
plaster and strip of linen from bag
she carried she made neat bandage.
Then she arose and viewed pretty job
of emergency surgery with reasonable
complacency. The patrol wagon and
the hod carrier came around at the same
time. AS the wagon backed up the hod
carrier opened his eyes and saw the girl
in the blue cloak.
care you hurt, Mixer said the boss.
Nav" said the hod carrier. Take

The girl doctor in blue looked at him
quizzingly and laughed as she washed
his gore from her hands in the bucket o.

DIR. George II. Bailey, State vet
ernary surgeon, has just made his
annual report. 1t includes an ex

testimony bearing on tuberculosis
in Massachusetts and the reasons
for Names quarantine against
Massachusetts cattle The report
shows the whole number of cases
reported to the Maine cattle com
missioners the past year to be III.
Sixty. five herds of cattle were in
spected and 50 stables, an increase
over previous years. Thirty-one
cattle were condemned and destroy
ed, the appraisal being $l,1o9 80; IS
horses, appraisal sl,4SO. Cattle
destroyed are double the number
in the year 1890, owing, says the
commissioner principally to import
atoms from Massachusetts, "a com
monwealth where it is safe to say
a much larger percentage of her
bovine population are affected with
tuberculosis than in any other New
England State" The commission
say that they have been obliged to
expend more than the appropriation
which is $1,000 and think that ii
should be Increased.

Senator Hill Speaks.

Senator David b. Hill made Il ringing
speech in Brooklyn on Monday night, and
left no doubts as to his position on the tar
iff, the FORGE Bill, or as to his fidelity to
the cause of Democracy apa its candidates.
Only Mugwumps and those prejudiced
against the able New York Senator had
misgivinss These have hurled so much
abuse at him that they thought possibly
they had driven him from the Democratic
party, or at least into silence for this cam
paign. Mr.. Hill, however, Is Democrat
from principle and patriotic citizen. The
failure to realize his own ambition had no
effect upon his Democracy or could blind
him as to his duty to his party and the
country.
His reception was an ovation, and his
speech was listened to with marked atten-
ton. 1t is regarded as one of the ablest
delivered in the campaign. He closed as
follows.
With this motto inscribed Upon orr banner,
''Public Office is public trust" supplement
ed by the other sentiments which have en-
deavored to present to you tonight, mo
public taxation for private purposes and
mo Force bill, let us close up our ranks
and buckle on our armor for the fight, with
the determination to do all in our power for
the triumph of our party and the election of
our hon0red standard bearers, Cleveland and
Stevenson.

Where is the Share of New Eng
land?
From the Boston Post.

1t is stated in the official organ of the iron
and steel industry that the product of Bes-
semer steel rails in the United States during
the first half of the current year was 100000
tons.
The profit on this manufacture has also been,
recently officially computed, and it appears to
be, on this amount, something over $1,000
600.
This is for six months work of less than
dozen mills, operated under McKinleyism.
With McKinleyism out of the way, the profit
would have been about 81 200, 600 for the six
months. Even this lesser profit would seem.
to he fair enough. .s5f
But here in New England there is another
phase of the subject which carries consider,
able interest. Not dollar of this enormous
profit, at the rate of SO, ZOO, 900 year in
single article of manufacture, is enjoyed by
New England.
New England railroads pay a considerable
part of this $40, 900, 900 year into the peck
cts of the Pennsylvania manufacturers, be-
cause the same tariff which projects the
Pennsylvania product has killed the iron and
steel industry in this part Of the country.
Where is New England to look for her share
in this bounty?

The Republican loss in Maine from their
plurality two years ago is 6,3S3, or about
thirty-three per cent. This is a heavy
drop, especially when 1t is remembered that
strenuous efforts were made to poll an in
creased vote in order to give confidence and
moral support to the party in other states.
II the falling off of the Republican vote in
New Hampshire is in the same ratio as in
Vermont and Maine, her four electoral
votes will be given to Cleveland. New
Hampshire lies between Maine and Yer
mont, and the same conditions exist there
as in the other states Count New Hamp-
shire for Cleveland This is Democratic
zoo.

Political Points.

~ wild dcbauch of spoils-the Harrison
administration.
Will Wanamaker and Dudley, with his
''blocks OF fve," attempt their corruption
schemes again?
John |. Davenport, of New York, the real
author of the Lodge Force Bill to put bayo-
nets at the polls, says Senator Hill, is ''as mild
a hammered man as ever cut throat or scut-
tied a ship
The ballot is the remedy for robber tariff
and the robber trusts, that like leeches are
sucking the likelihood of the people. Why
will long suffering people endure these ills
when the remedy is in their own hands?
If the Mckinley tariff is so great boon to
American labor, why do strikes continue?
Vermont and Maine elections would indi
cate that the bottom is falling ont of the Har
rison campaign.
Eleven Republicans in one township in
Indiana have declared for Cleveland.
B. Sutton, one of the organizers OF the
Peoples party in Florida, has left the organ
ization, because it has fallen into the hands
of ambitious and designing politicians.
At the Congressional primary meeting in
Princess Anne, Somerset county, Md, on
Saturday last, John Cullen, who has always
been a Republican, announced himself a
Democrat, and was made chairman of the
meeting.
Henry A. Myer, who was one OF the fore
most Republicans of Brooklyn, N. Y, and
was the Republican candidate for mayor last
year, has declared for Cleveland. He cannot
stand the Mckinley tariff, which is laid to
make millionaires and burden the working
man and farmer.
The hopes of the Democrats in Iowa are at
high water mark The farmers there have been
looking closely into the tariff and they think
with Senator Allison, that the tariff is of no
benefit to the farmers. On the contrary it is
a great drawback to their prosperity, for while
it helps to keep down the price of grain, it
raises the price of nearly everything the
farmer has to buy.
The next President must be Democrat;
it is in the air: it is written in the book of
destiny.
The grandson of his grand father will be
beaten in November byas great a majority as
the grandfather beat his opponent in 1910.
Mark it, Time makcs all things even.

The Tax on State Banks.

The Democratic platform favors IA repeal
of the ten per cent. tax on state banks.
The Republicans at once assumed that the
Democratic party favored return to the
unstable currency of thirty years ago. The
tax is unjust and unconstitutional, and that
is one reason why it should be removed.
Further, as the national debt is gradually
being paid off, there is continual lessening
of security for national bank circulation and
a consequent contraction of the volume OF
money. When the national debt is paid,
some other banking scheme will have to be
provided, and the sooner the tax is removed
from state banks the sooner will the states
devise a stable banking system. As to
wildcat banking, no system would give us
a more deprecated currency than we have
More than half of our circulating medium
is redeemable in silver, and the silver in
the dollar is worth but sixty-five cents.
In other words the government has but
sixty-five cents worth of silver for each
dollar issued in silver notes. This is not
only specimen of wildcat money, but the
government is continuing to issue dollar
for each sixry,fv cents worth of silver it
purchases under the Sherman act, and un-
der that law the Secretary of the Treasury
must buy each month 4,5OO,OOO ounces if
so much is offered.
The present national banking system has
both merits and dement's, and with the fed
eral tax removed from state banks, each
state can devise better system with equal
ly as good security for the issue of money
state and municipal bonds.

Grand Army Encampment.

The formal dedication of "Grand Army
Place. in Washington Monday, was practi-
cally the opening ceremony of the twenty
sixth National Encampment of the Grand
Army Of the Republic. The exercises were
preceded by procession of the military and
naval forces of the United States stationed at
Washington, the National Guard of the Dis
trict, and the various posts of the Department
of the Potomac. The dedication address was
made by Vice President Morton. In the
evening number of corps reunions were
held. Freight traffic was practically aban :
doned, and the railway officials had all they
could do to handle the arriving passenger
trains.
The greatest parade ever held by the Grand
Army of the Republic took place on Tuesday.
!: is estimated that $4,000 men were in line
and that the number of strangers in the city
was 250,000.
Maryland had over $500 men in line with
fifteen bands and several drum corps.

San Francisco Business Men.

Cleveland has an element of tremendous
strength in the business men. Throughout
the country he has their confidence and re-
speet. San Francisco is no exception to the
rule, as is indicated by some very significant
interviews published in the Examiner. 1t is
to be remembered that here we are so remote
from the great commercial centers of the
Union that ephemeral phases of feeling COM
mon to them do not readily affect our bust
ness men. Only steady tendencies communi-
cate themselves from the East and middle
West. Without exception the merchants In
teryiewed spoke with respect of Mr. Cleve-
land, and number of them, lifelong Repub-
licans, did not hesitate to declare their inten-
ton to vote for him in preference to the
candidate of their own party.-San Francisco

Referring to the covert attack of the
Baltimore Sun on Senator German, the
Towson Journal very truthfully remarks
that the SIN would rather stab the Senator
than help the cause of Cleveland. The
Baltimore Ledger, of Saturday, gives COW
ertly some good advice to the SIN. How
ever, the Democratic party is stronger with
the SIN against it, as was shown in the
election last year.
