WHERE ARE THEY2

Where are the gentlemen who were
50 anxious to have Mr.. Harrison
pledge himself to.abide by the result
of the Democratic convention?
Can any one tell?
Mr.. Harrison pledged his word of
honor that he would support the
nominee. and so he would.
The other fellows, although fairly
and sQuarely beaten, are squealing
like stuck pigs in a slaughter house.

competent to draw the line ami say
to what point German should be ex-
GUIDED and where it should be taken
up again. That is matter also for
the scientific teacher
"What are your views, Mr.. Harri-
son, regarding the elevation of the
tracks of railroads running into Chi
cago?"
The abolishing OF grade crossings
is a question of vital Importance. 1t
is one which must be met sQuarely
by the railroads and by the city of
Chicago, but | do not favor a policy
which would materially cripple the
great railroad systems running into
the city A system should be devised
not only for the permanent doing
away with grade crossings
but the temporary needs
OF the city should not be
overlooked. Some of the tracks
should be elevated and Others de-
pressed. Along the river, for ex-
ample the tracks should be depressed
for the reason that their elevation
would bring them on level with the
bridge crossings and make them even
more dangerous than they are at
present. While plan is being
formulated | believe yiaducts of a
temporary character should be
built across the more dangerous
OF the crossings. How far the
elevation of the tracks may be
brought about within a given time is
a matter Of engineering skill and
study and no mere layman should.
without the aid of expert advice and
counsel, attempt to lay down plan
and fix the time in which it should
be done. Grade crossing must be
brought sooner or later to an end.
But in calculating the problem the
city should study its own interests and
the interests Of the railroad systems
at the same time. | believe the per-
mlnent interests of both are identi-
cal. Years ago, as early as 1879 or
1882 / urged this matter to the
presidents and superintendent Of the
roads centering in the city. a plan
to carry the thing out cannot be much
longer delayed"
in the platform there is plank
that the interest on public
shall go to the city. Does
this meet with your APPROVAL"
Certainly. The platform was
familiar to me before its passage and
it meets my views on the various
questions Of interest. There may be
other questions of interest which
might be taken up later, but in gen.
eral terms the platform is in accord
with my views"

MR.. HARRiSON'S VIEWS.

From an interview in Thursdays
Tribune.
Carter II. Harrison, the nominee
of the Democratic convention for
Mayor Of Chicago, was behind his
desk in the Times Office yesterday.
His SLOUGH hat was on the desk before
him, and piles of letters and manu-
scripts and law books overfowed upon
neighborng chairs. Mr.. Harrison
was willing to talk on the topics of
the municipal campaign, but he
would not let the interview 60 with
out his first revising it. Here it is
revised:
what is your opinion on the ques-
ton of 'fads' in the public schools?"
THAT is a question which / cannot
answer hurriedly in detail. ! have
no time to go into details. / will
say this, however. All children in
Chicago should be given the oppor-
tunity to learn the rudiments of the
English language. There should be
schools enough to that every child
of school age should have the oppor-
tunity of gaining such knowledge
as would fit him for future business
career. That should be the first oh
ject of the Board Of Education, and
the Mayor and the City Council
should see to it that that opportunity
is denied to no one. When this is
done, then if there is still money
for use in the schools, sone of these
less necessary branches might be
taught with advantage to the child.
Manual training. for example, would,
/ think, be OF value If properly
taught and used as recreation and
for exercise. | believe in leaving
these matters largely to the scientific
educators, to the men and women
who have made education the study
of their lives. First of all, however,
give the children the rudiments Of
an education, the foundation on which
they can afterward build.
SHOULD German be taught ia the
public schools Of Chicago
The German is a language which
Is OF great value 20 men and women
Of the present day Teaching ii in
the public school, would serve
double purpose II would tmln Che

DOWN WITH FADS.

In its effort to help the people out
of their difficulties, the Democratic
party of Chicago, in convention as
sembled, adopted the following plank
in its platform with regard to fads:
"The common school system must
be maintained in its integrity, and in
order to assure the highest efficiency
all the resources of that system in
Chicago should be devoted TO pro-
vision for all corners of what is con-
templated by the Constitution of
Illinois, good common school edu-
cation. Until full provision is
made in the primary grades for
every child in Chicago applying for
use of the common schools, the school
funds ought not to be used for any
purpose other than simple elemental
education. When such provision is
made, it VIII lie within the discretion
of the school authorities to provide
means of wider and higher education.
but in such plan there is no room for
those fads which the common sense
OF the community reprobltes as fol-
lies.
1t is true the people toDk a hand
in revolving against the outrageous
burdens imposed upon them and their
by the School Board
Vote for Harrison and against the
fadS
Chicago eagle. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1889-19??, 1893-03-04

to be true, and men of all parties will
vote for Mr.. Harrison on THIS accou nt.
His platform, printed upon the first
page of this paper, is a sufficient in
dication to the voters of the policy
which he VIII pursue if elected MAYOR.
1t is full of sound sense and cogent
reasoning.
A vote for Carter III. Harrison is a
vote for the principles therein set
forth
Chicago eagle. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1889-19??, 1893-03-04
you CAN BET ON IT.

There will not be enough left of
the man who runs for Mayor against
Harrison to grease the point of the
finest needle.
The united order of kickers, stiffs.
and odoriferosities who are against
him will please take notice.

TACOMA. Oct. IL ~ Especial. - John
Eorthover. q half-breed rancher living
seven miles from spanaway lake. on Muck
creek, brought three large cougars into
town today. Their bodies were stretched
on Pacific avenue. near Twelfth street.
and attracted q crowd all afternoon. They
were nearly of sire, the largest being be-
tween seven and one-half and eight feet
long. Mr.. Northover killed four cougars
at one time. They are ali believed 20 be
of the same family. Their tracks have
been seen in the mud since the recent
rains in the vicinity of Muck creek. North
over started out with bis dogs to go deer
hunting. The dogs took after something
I'm the brush and finally freed one of the
cougars. After he had been shot they
freed another 100 yards away and later still
another. There was lively fight between
the wounded cougars and the dogs. One
cougar caught a dog up in his fore legs and
gnawed az his neck. and AZ the same time
started 80 disembowel him with the claws

later. while returning from a short trip up
the creek. the dogs freed another cougar
and Northover shot him. Northover Is a
great hanter in the estimation Of his
neighhors, He is good marksman.

A.ter's Yacht Hits a rerryboas.

NEW York. Oct. IA sensational col
hsion occurred in midstream in North
river this morning. John Jacob Astor's
steam yacht Nourmahal. going at full
speed down river, loaded with prominent
society people bound for the yacht race,
ran unchecked into the side of q heavily
loaded Pennsylvania railroad ferryboat.
cutting into the side some six feet. The
utmost CONSERVATION and panic prevailed
on both vessels. Women ran screaming
up and down the decks, and many tainted.
The engines of the yacht were reversed.
and she backed away. a hasty examina-
ton of the ferryboat showed that, owing TO
the projecting deck and cabin of the boat.
the hull was not cut below the water line,
and there was no danger Of sinking. The
engines were started up again and the boat
proceeded TO the dock. The Nourmahal
sustained no injury beyond having her
bowsprit broken aud nose twisted. She
proceeded on her way. The blame for the
collision appears TO lie with the Nour-
nIahal.
