1t Ia surprising that so many OF the
operatives in our factories, forges and
shops vote against their employers.
Their interests are Identical. they ar
all interested in keeping up the price
OF their productions, as the wages
paid must depend on ready sales and
a margin Of profit. 1t is singular
then, that they should vote SO differ
emily at the elections: the employer
for protection and the employee
against 1t. The workmen may posi-
bly, be the wiser of the two classes
but it really seems strange that
should 10 so. Some OF them shoul'
Iise and explain this matter. II the,
have not some satisfactory explana
ton, they must admit that they are
governed by prejudice and so are III
reasonable that they would cut thei
noses on TO spite those who are the
bencfacturs.

All last night until almost the break
OF morn was the street filed with
crowds OF young men making night
hideous with their noises and drunlier
frolics. The average turkey yester'
day must have been served with wine
sauce. About 9 o'clock this morning
one crowd. consisting of six young
men, just in the bloom of manhood,
came staggering up one of our west
side Streets The leaders OF tho party
are two well-known young fellows
preached upon the subject. would not
believe their sons were anything but
purity itself.
On they came. cutting up all kinds
OF drunken frollcs, laughing. crying
and singing In loud voice. First II
would DO some snatches OF John
Browns Body" then After the Ball.
On they went, up the street. awakinl
all the tired people from thoir slum'
bers. One wanted to go in one glldet
palace. the others some other. Or
they went on thair course. and tn ell
voices grew fainter and fainter In tn,
distance until the sound was lost Il
the car. AS they vanished, the three
people turned over to get little
sleep, but alas, no sleep for Thorn. Al
hOSlhE away nail lOaL
ness, they were suddenly awakened
by pounding and kicking upon doc
OF one OF the palaces of sin.
In moment the window was open
ed and a shrlll female voice said
what do you mean, sir2 You cam
kick my door. You may ring tn
bell, but you must not kick 1t. Wher
Is your crowd you had around her

Cry and whine, IL lost the boys

then relented, and said. Yes, you ca
come in, but you can't kick my door.
| Az the door closed upon this dude n
was quiet for short time. Then tn
five lost boys came to hunt their con
panion. but by this time the mixture
that had been taken were too niue
for their stomachs, and a ludicrou
sight was seen Of part OF them line
along the gutter giving up the walt
able contents Of that self same ston
ach.
With the unloading of this me;
their brains became more clear. III
with the thought, "What fools "
mortals be-" they crept home to
rather early retirement. .-.
