Gather Together aud Have n Little
Racket With the Police.
CHICAGO, Aug. % -Four thousand men
who are unemployed, who had gathered
on the lake front yesterday afternoon to
discuss Mayor Harrison's order to stop
parades, surged out into State street
They were a disorganized mob and made
no attempt TO parade. But their numbers
impeded traffic in the crowded streets,
cable trains and carriages were stopped,
as the men were packed too closely to-
gether for any vehicle to force its way
through. The mob cheered as It ad-
vanced and brought out hundreds of spec
tators until the streets were packed with
people.
A hundred men stopped in front Of
Siegel, Cooper g. Co.'s store clamoring
that they wanted bread. For moment
1t looked as IL they were going to dash
into the store, While they hesitated the
police were npon them. They grabbed
the men by the coat collars and admins
tered a series of vigorous kicks. The
demonstration ended in inglorious defeat.
the mob scattering before the charge of
the police and disappearing down the side
streets.

.suRPRIsEp AND PANIED. {"

The distressing rumor comes from
Washington that some of the great men
who consented to form part of Presi-
dent Cleveland's official family are "sur-
prised and panied"
That which has brought them TO this
deplorable condition of mind and heart
is the notification they have received
from the president that they must have
their doings o. Kd. at the White House
before they are promulgated; that they
are to consider themselves rs clerks
only, privileged to do his will but not
expected to exhibit their own brain
work or seek to run things at all.
The gentlemen who are said to be
Surprised and panied" are two Of the
three members of the cabinet who had
been heard of by the country before
they were called upon to act in their
present capacity, viz, Mr.. Gresham
and Mr.. Carlisle.
The other man who did not need an
introduction TO the country is Dan
Lamont, and as he has been the presi
dents clerk for more than eight year.
he was, so to speak, wonted to the har
ness, and probably never expected tC
act in an independent manner.
Il is said that Messrs. Carlisle ant

are in four designs and number SIX
millions, or about one to every ten per-
sons-men, women and children-in the
country. These are intended. we are
told, chiefly as souvenirs and the tickets
for the business purpose OF obtaining
entrance to the fair will be issued later
in less pretentious fashions. The man.
agement confess to issuing the tickets
thus early "on speculation" with the
idea that many will want the set OF four
designs, and spectators, warned no less
than the management by the fate OF the
half-dollar souvenirs, are trying to
corner the market.
These and many other evidences exist
that the fair is built too much upon the
corner stone of speculation to anger
we'll for its entire success. Even In this
feature it is said to be typically Ameri-
can, but if speculation leads to extor-
tion should the United States be proud
of it?
1t is probably too late to cry halt.
We can only hope for the best and
await the answer of the future to the
question which introduces this article

Teacher Greene's Case.

10 the Editor Of the Neios
In consideration OF the Importance to the
teachers ana scholars of the public schools, to
say nothing of the general public which sup
ports these schools, ] am surprised that no
further action was taken by the school board
Frid ay evening in regard TO the suspension of
Miss Eva A. Greene, assistant teacher at the
Arnold street school, by the First ward dele
CATION, than appears in the published report
of the meeting =
Miss Greene was disciplined for attempting
TO m aintain order in her school by forcibly
eiecting an impudent and unruly scholar,
ana aid think that such a fair minded body
as our school board would do more towards
removing n false impression from the minds
of the people than to simply add something
To the by laws that would seem unnecessary, 7,
aud by not taking further action whitewash
and sustain district committee at the ex-
pense probably Of further disorder in the
schools and weakening of the influence of
the teachers.
IN Miss Greene was right in her attempt to
maintain order in her school IL seems no
more than Just that she should have been
sustained and vindicated by vote of the
committee. JUSTICE.

MIR. HONEY's ORDERS.

The orders which Mr.. Honey is said
to have issued to the party workers in
the Democracy are typical OF the man
and the aims of the organization which
he leads.
The order is q definite notice that
both national and state offices will de-
pend on the par:y's success, and that no
individual need expect any favor from
the autocrat unless his district makes a
good return next Wednesday.
1t has been tacitly understood for a
long while that this principle of reward
for party service was the guiding star
of the Democracy, but to lay down the
ironclad law that reward will only fol-
low effective service is to openly and
loudly declare that the principle OF
spoils is to be the only platform of the
party that claims to be the peoples
protector.
1t is not pleasant fact for the voters
to contemplate, but it is nevertheless q
fact that every vote cast for the Demo
cratic candidates will be vote cas-
simply to prove to Mr.. Honey that the
Democratic ward heelers are doing theil
duty, and that they deserve to have tn,
plums that are ripe at this season of tn
political year.

mark before they are submitted to abe
public wrings their hearts and surprises
them.
There is, however, subtler reason
for the surprise and pain that is reported
to have seized upon these two distin-
guished gentlemen. IL is this: The
president has concluded to dispense all
the patronage connected with their de-
partments, except clerkships under the
$500 grade, probably to assure himself
that none of his relatives slip into an
unguarded office.
II is painful in the extreme to learn
that all is not serene at Washington,
aud that the unselfish patriots who have
sunk their personal interests TO serve
their country find themselves hampered
and limited by the Man in the White
House. who is said to have taken on the
airs and adopted the methods of the
presidents of the South American repub-
lies, where revolutions are more fire.
quent than inaugurations.
While the hearts of Messrs. Gresham
and Carlisle may be wrung until they
fairly bleed, it must be assumed that
the voters who enthusiastically sup
ported Mr.. Cleveland, hoping for a
chance at one or more of the consulates
where living is cheap and work scarce,
are not all dry-eyed.

Ter minal facilities is yet in the dis
tance. To the people Of Providence it is
still at ths small end of the telescope,
aud distance lends enchantment to the
view. Year after year the people Of that
city have been waiting for the promised
action Of the railroads Everything
promised by the city has been done. aud
yet the new depot seems as far away as
ever. The slu al Der OF the railroad Off
cials appears to be AS profound rs that of
the seven sleepers. Let the slumber of
these railroad officials be broken by legal
proceedings. Let the city council take
vigorous measures to compel the rail
roads to perform their part of the con-
tract. A new depot to meet the wants OF
the city of Providence and the needs Of
the people OF the state should be inmedi-
ateiy erected. Tue railroads should be
taught that Providence is not simply a
flag station. The present facilities are a
disgrace to the railroads, the city aud
the state. Pawtuxet Valley Daily
