HACK DRIVERS.
They Favor the Repeal of an Elk
listing License Law.

There is a law on the statute
books that requires hackmen to
take out license each time they
change employers. The "Jehus"
have always considered the law a
very obnoxious one, and with that
idea in mind had bill introduced
in the Legislature to repeal it.
The committee who have the bill
in charge reported unfavorably on
the measure and now the hackmen
are more than angry.
One of the drivers has discovered
that hack inspector Sam Macy is to
blame for the rejection of the bill,

They go further, and claim that

Rep. Bipikane said they all hoped
that Mr.. Cleveland would be elected
president. He would repeal the Me-
kinley bill. and then everything
would be lovely again. He favored
postponing this item until the next
session of the Legislature.
Noble Horner favored the item. There
would be in the harbor two or three,
perhaps four large ships at time,
which would want to- unload and go

Mr.. EDISON

in designing the Mimeo-
graph took as his principle, the stylus,
the writing implement of man since the
art was first invented. 1t is the natural
instrument by which the hand can trace
characters. This is one of the reasons
why this machine has achieved such
popularity.
The pen or stylus glides easily
over the prepared stencil paper
with just enough friction to make
writing identical to that done with
hard lead pencil
1t is used by jobbers sending out price
lists; retail stores use it sending circulars
direct to their customers secretaries, in
printing notices Of meeting, programmes,
ETC.; hotels, printing bills of fare and
printing bill and letter heads;
muscs, sketching, maps in Colors,
