Milwaukee suffers from Another Costly
lncendlAry Ftre-Ths street Hallway
Company's Shops Destroyed by m In
namnsnble Bomb.
MILWAUKEE. Dec. 2o.--At "a. IN. fro
was discovered In the northwest cor
ner of the Milwaukee Street hallway
Co.'s shops, which destroyed the en-.
tire plant. cntailing loss Of $500, 900.
Like the other terrible frcs with
which Milwaukee has been visited
during the past few days, this one also
was apparently OF incendiary origin.
The night Waterman who first dis
covered the fire says that II started in
the car nearest the doorway of the
building His story Is that he was
standing near the car when suddenly
he was startled by a loud explosion.
and in less than five minutes the whole
building was ablazc. On one side were
the stables. where fully scventy-fivo
horses and mules were kept. These
were all liberated and nearly all got
ten out On the other side were the
car sta bles. where about 100 cars were
stored. and all these were burned. II
Is in their loss the company will sus-
tain the greatest damage.
The machine shops were also de-
stroyed. These shops were built the
, past season, and were fitted with very
fine machinery for the rebuilding and
repairing Of cars.
| At 4 u. m. Manager Lynn OF the street
railway company had arrived at the
scene OF the fire. To representa-
tive of the United Press. he said;
Our loss is about $4,000. The
! cars stored il. the building were
valued at s35O,0O0. while the structure
itself is worth at least 10000. The
machinery is valued at fully $4,000
while the stores Of the company were
kept in the building. and were worth
$4,000. The only insurance we car.
red was on the building. and think
amounts to about $40, 000."
The loss will fall upon the Willard
syndicate, which owns the road.
1t seems to be pretty well cstab
lishcd, ut least from the watchman's
story, that the fire was caused by the
explosion of "A bomb, which was thrown
through the main doorway, and strucl
the car standing nearest to the en-
trance. The bomb must have beer
filed with something Of highly in
hammable nature, because only IA few
seconds after the explosion the entire
building was in flames.
II is said that Chief Foley has re.
-eived an anonymous letter declaring
that the big incendiary fires of the last
few weeks are part of concerted plar
to destroy the city. and that the fire.
bugs intend to lay the town in ashe.
before July 1. Chief Foley denies re
.civing such letter, but officers are
known to be endcavoring 10 discovel
the idcr tity of the writer who is be
ievcd to be n crank.
A special meeting of the city council
is to be held To take action toward stop
ping the reign OF incendiarism, and iii
likely that IA special grand jury will b
called to investigate the matter.

The primary fight in the Demo
cratic ranks is now over and there
shohld be no hard feelings as to the
result. 1t was a legitimate differ
ence of opinion as to the choice of
candidates and it was honestly
fought out. Because q man does
not see things in the primaries as
you do is no argument. that he is
not as good a Democrat. Let there
now be no complaints or chickering's
because of actions in the primary
but let the party come together and
give the party ticket an honest sup
port. 1t is the duty of party candi-
dates to faithfully represent the
whole party and We believe it will
be the earnest endeavor Of the tick

THE CoUxTY COMMISSIONERS.

THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
This is the way the Baltimore
County Union, one of the best Re-
publican paper in the State puts it:
The County Republican conven-
ton met ut Towsontown on Mon
day and nominated complete
county ticket, including County
Commissioners. Under the present
law the office of Commissioner will
not be vacant this fall, but as it is
claimed by many that the law un-
der which the present Board holds
is unconstitutional, the nominations
were made with the hope or expec-
tation that the Court of Appeals
will declare the law unconstitution-
nj. But even if it should do so we
cannot see how it would enure to
the advantage of those gentlemen
who will be voted for in November.
1t is asserted that the old County
Commissioners law was repealed
before the new one was enacted and
il this be true it is useless to expect
to secure Office under it. If the old
law was repealed and the new one
should be declared unconstitutional
then there will be no law providing
for County Commissioners and We
suppose the Governor would then
be called upon to appoint a Board.
IL this contingency should arise it
is quite safe to say that no Republi-
cans would be selected, no matter
how many votes they might have
received.

Weep not thou stricken parents, but be

Hers was the morning hour,
And she has passed in beauty from the day,

Torn In its sweetness from the parent spray:

AS frost in springtime, blights the early rose.
Died, at the residence of her daughter,

Every attention was given her in her last

family our heartfelt sympathies in their
bereavement, particularly 10 the daughter
who watched over her until the last with
such faithful and tender devotion.
Close folded in the arms divine,
Her head on Jesus breast,
She joined the heavenly hosts on high,
Above all blessing blcst.
We yield her Saviour, &c thy love,
Thy love so full and free,
That drew her tencerly away,
To find home with Thee.
