A Text and a Story.

Mr.. Cleveland rode into power on the
false cry that the people were over
taxed by the tariff. Now that he is in
power it is proposed to cut off ? cents a
pound tariff on tin and add 3 cents
pound to coffee to sugar and 5 to tea.
How is that for relieving the people of
taxation?
1t reminds us of an Irish woman who
came to her death in Philadelphia,
where she had been keeping a little
grocery store. She ca He'd her husband
to her bedside. Michael" she began,
in voice tremulous from approaching
dissolution, "Michael. Jim DAILY owes
me 20 cents. and forgot to put it down
on the buke; an Barney McPhee owes
me 81 for beer"
"Pon me sowl, Mary Ann" sobbed
the afflicted husband, but ye're sinsi-
BILE to the lasht.'
AN, Michael" she continued,
there's Dan Kerrigan-I owe him foive
dollars, borryed money"
Poor sowl," muttered the bereaved
O'Rourle "her moind is wanderin'. -

that their bread and butter depends
upon their preaching a whole gospel.
The time is not far distant when our

for prohibition ministers who have not

THE fact CHAT onlx tMentx-three ne

The fact that only twenty-three per-
sons attended the organization of that
new party at Pittsburg proves that it is
unnecessary at this time. 1t had been
generally advertised that two thousand
people had signed the call and that
seven million people were ready to
unite with it," but the smallness of the
attendance and the general lack of in
terest in the movement ought to con-
vince its projectors that the Prohibi-
tion party covers all the points of its
platform.

Pure" Liquors.

At acoaference held some years ago
In New York, the late DIR. Willard
Parker, in an address on alcoholism,
speaking of alcohol, said: 1T is neither
food nor beverage, but is a poison as
much as arsenic or any other poison,
and produces it's deadly effects on those
who use it," and added: ''The purer
the alcohol, the purer the poison" He
further said he would prefer to drink
the adulterated, if obliged to take
either"

gaSped the man without stopping;
''mad dogs-dozen Of 'cin"' looking
up the street the policeman saw, of a
truth, many dogs dashing about with
foam flying from their mouths, and ap-
parently making every effort to bite
the people who We're passing up and
down. Then the officer burst into a
loud laugh, and calling after the fly ing
citizen, he said: ''You foolish fellow,
there is no occasion for You to feel
afraid. The dogs are mad, sure enough,
but don't you see they are all wearing
municipal tags?'
MoRAL-Tags on Mad dogs protect
the citizens from hydrophobia just as

London. Nov. 14.-There was an ex-
citing discussion of the anarchists
rights to assemble and commemorate
the death of the Chicago anarchists
in the commons this afternoon. The
Gladstone government was denounced
for permitting such demonstrations.
Darling moved to adjourn in order to
call attention to the use of Trafalgar

ling, who is a well known author.

duty of Asquith home secretary, to
have satisfied himself of the objects of
the meeting in Trafalgar square be-
fore permitting it to take place.
Balfour, conservative leader, sup
ported Darling's motion and strongly
censured the government. The meet
ing, according to Balfour, was clearly
a breach of the law.
John Burns, labor leader and mem
defended the Trafalgar square meet
ing as being a protest against the
action of the Chicago police.
Home Secretary Asquith, replying to
the attack of Darling, said the meeting
in Trafalgar square was insignificant
and not illegal. He regarded it as a
safety valve of the feelings, which are
only dangerous when suppressed or
watched.

THE UNION PACIFIC.
Congress Will Probably Deal with 1t Early
in the Session.

Washington, Nov. 14-One of the
most important topics which it is be-
lieved will be touched upon by the
attorney general in his Forthcoming
annual report is that relating to pro-
tecting the interests of the govern
ment in the Pacific railroads, particu-
larly the Union Pacific. The attorney
general has had frequent conferences
on the subject with the Pacific railroad
committee of the Senate, but so far it
is believed no final conclusions in the
matter have been reached. One report
had it that Chairman Morgan of the
committee has prepared bill for fore
closure against the Union Pacific.
Faulkner, the only member of the
committee in the city, says. however
there has been no bill on the subject
yet prepared. 1t is said the bonds is
sued by the road are a first lien on
its property and the government, ex-
cept by special legislation, could not
foreclose until it first took up and paid
the bonds.
