We Need More william Pitts.

There is room and need for such states
men as William Pitt-for whom Pittsburg
was named-who had the courage to tell
George III. aad the Parliament of Eng
land that they had no right to tax the Amer
lean colonies and that they must repeal the
offensive acts of which the people of this
country complained. His speeches in
favor Of America are we'll known, and gave
great offense to the King and the Tories,
but as expressions OF honest conviction, ut
tered with the eloquence for which he was
famous, they marked him as statesman Of
broad and independent views and an orator
of the highest order. He had the strongest
contempt TO. the mean and petty motives Of
political trimmers. He was above the sus-
picion of traficking in place or power for
personal ends. He loved his country and.
gave his talents to her. service. For 80

The Best for Less Than $40.

No one dreams here of paying more than
eS for the best suit of clothing that the
most fashionable tailor can turn out, cloth
ing that would cost from SIS to $125 per
suit in America. And only the bowling
swellspay such prices. The usual figure is
somewhere between e5 and e6 and for this
one can get garments cut by the most
fashionable tailors and made up in the best
style. An overcoat that would cost S10O in
Pittsburg may be had for half that figure
here. A silk hat that retails for IS in our
land can be had for half that price here,
and so it is with shoes, gloves and neck
wear Even collars and cuffs only cost halt
in London what they do in. America, and
one may be in the very tip top Of fashion
here with an elaborate wardrobe for no
very great expense. Necktes that cost
81 so in Pittsburg are sold here for halt
that sum and the best made gloves in the
world can be obtained for from so cents to
81 per pair.
With all these facts in mind is it any
wonder that the London dandy still leads
the American dude in the variety Of his
apparel and extent of wardrobe?

Day after day, week after week passed,
and they could not make up their minds In
less time, Thomas Jefferson, with all the
direful consequences of revolution in view
in face of the power of England, in sight
of the destruction and calamities it might
cause to the country-composed the i'm
mortal Declaration of Independence, and
had it adopted and signed. Cromwell and
his Parliament made much shorter work Of
condemning and beheading Charles I of
England.

WHAT JERRY THINKS.


or the OpiHion That the Third Party
VIII Hold the Balance OF Power.
WASHINGTON, July 1.--Representa-
tive Jerry Simpson thinks the third
party is going TO figure quite prom
inently in the election this fall, and that
they viii not have to 60 out of their
own ranks for presidential candidate.
'.I think" he said, ''that the third
party ticket will be Weaver and Bev-
erly; General Weaver Of Iowa, and
Robert Beverly Of Virginia.
"The platform win not be changed
greatly from that adopted at our former
conventions. What is known as the
soldier clause may be dropped
out - there 10 some talk OF
that - and I hope and expect
that there will be an absolute
free trade plank in the platform. We
are In favor of free coinage of silver and
are ready to declare for it unmistakably.
I think we are very apt to poll q very
large vote in the SO called slavery states
and that we may carry some or all OF
them. ] believe we will carry Kansas,
Nebraska, Minnesota, South Dakota,
Georgia, North and South Carolina and
Texas and one or more of the silver
states. j think we have good chance
of carrying these states, and, to sum up
that we will throw the election Of ths
president into this house, and we viii
elect enough members Of congress tx
to have the balance of power"

The st. Louis Giobe-Democrat Thinks
Fosters Nomination q Mistake.
ST.. LOUIS, No., July THE Globe
Democrat condemns the appointment of
Secretary Foster. 1t says: The selec-
ton of John w. Foster to be secretary Of
state will disappoint and displease the
country. While the appointee has had
some diplomatic experience, he is not
the sort of q man whom the average
citizen would be likely to mention in
connection with the leading position in
tho cabinet. For several weighty rea-
sons this appointment is blunder. So
far az those familiar with Fosters
record are able to judge he lacks the
ability and mental poise and dignity
requisite in the head Of the most impor-
tant of all the cabinet posts 1t is a
blunder because it will cast an air of
truth over the story current week or
two ago, that Fosters ofiiciousness
caused Mr.. Blaine to resign, and will
thus be mortal affront to the ex-secre-
tary and his friends.

TAE AUSTRALIAN SYSTEM.

Illinois Supreme Court win Have to De-
eide Knotty Point.
SPRINGFIELD, July 1.-The question
raised at Plano, Ills, as to the right
of a voter, under the Australian ballot
law, to scratch his ticket and vote for
some person whose name is not printed
on the ticket, is likely to be carried to
the supreme court. At any rate, legal
opinions disagree, and no authority
short of the supreme court can settle
the important point. There are
those who hold that no candidate can
be voted for whose name is not on the
ticket; that although voter may
scratch his ticket he must make choice
OF candidates from those whose names
are regularly printed ON the ticket.
General Hunt says, however, that the
law does not forbid the scratching of a
ticket in this way, and he holds that a
voter has a right to vote for any one
whom he chooses, no matter whether
the name of such person is printed on
the ticket or not.

REcoMMITTED THE BILL.
Minnesota Park Bill Goes Back TO th
Public Lands Committee.

SHinnesota Park Bill Goes Back TO the
Public Lands Committee.
WASHINGTON, July 1.-The bill
granting thirty-three sections Of public
land in Northern Minnesota for the pur-
pose of state park passed the house
about the middle of June and the other
day it was reported from the senate
committee ON public lands without
amendment. Senator Washburn was
not altogether satisfied with it, and just
before the close of the session, he had
the bill recommitted to the committee
on public lands for the purpose, as he
stated, to allow certain interested parties
to be heard oyn the matter.
Senator Washburn says that he moved
to recommit the bin for the purpose OF
defeating it, and that he did not want Il
to go through. He said there was no
necessity for setting apart a large tract
of land in Northern Minnesota for .
park, especially as 1t never could ,bs
used for park purposes, and the people
Of Minnesota had no idea OF ever, main.
tanning park there. II. s..s s s. ! /.
Representative Castle, who Is the
lauthor of the hill and who worked II
through the house, was asked about, II
and stated that inasmuch as Minnesota
had set apart it's state lands, purchased
the railroad lands and secured all but
government land i'll that vicinity for Q
state park or reservation, he thought /,
was right and proper to have this grant
from the government in connection with
the state lands. He says that 1t is more
for reservation than a park and in
tended to protect the watershed at thai
point, where there is more rainfall thar
any other part of the state, being thu
headwaters of the Mississippi and Of th.
waters flowing toward the North. Fl,
maintains that it is an admirable poin
for park and did not seem to antici
pate that there would be any opposition
to the bill. Senator Washburn say,
that 1t means the holding up Of all th,
lands which are valuable for timber a
well as minerals and to prevent their us,
by actual settlers and persons desiring
the timber or the minerals upon them

taking advantage of the opportunity to
thoroughly examine some of the finest
residences in town. His curiosity to in

posed to be rsere savage curiosity and he
was allowed perfect freedom. Now it
turns out that the willy Tip had
two confederates. They are Walter Rice
and Henry Wood. After Tip had To-
Gated the houses Rice and Vkod would
get in their work as professional bur-
glars. They broke into four houses in

petted, entertaining the people with wild
yarns about Zululand. Price and Wood
have been arrested and are now in Jail.
