The Philadelphia Ledger is Of the opin-
ion that the increase in the number Of
train robberies is due to the influence
Of populist political arguments. If that
is the case, it would appear to be about
time to put populism in the same category
with socialism aud anarchy, and popu-
lists with socialists and anarchists.

There are at least two Gladstone axes
at the worlds fair, and their exhibitors
and many observers are making a great
fuss over them. But where are the Abe
Lincoln axes and the mauls and gluts of
hickory that he used to employ in the
splitting of his ten-foot white oak railsl
There used to be campaign songs about
these things, but it appears that none of
them is at the fair. An Abs Lincoln ak
certainly ought to be more interesting to
Americans than dozen Gladstone axes

II Is thought in Philadelphia that the
robbery Of the mint there was accom-
plshed through regular house breaking
operation. The vault in which the miss
ing gold was stored was built Of brick
and the walls were only four inches
thick The theory is that somebody who
knew the weakness Of the walls made
successful attack upon them and then re
placed the bricks in the breach so skill
iully as TO escape detection. The thief.
by the way, appears to have been on the

The Beloit lKan.) Gazette says the
farmers of Kansas have vast boards of
money buried under their hearthstones
and hayricks The editor of the paper
says he saw many of the farmers 90 to a
timers in Beloit and have great rolls of
bills and heaps of currency soldered up in
tin boxes, which were taken home and
buried. The editor further says that not
less than $1,000 has been buried in
Mitchell county. Yet these Kansas people
are the ones who are wailing the loudest

Ex-senator Hill, of Colorado, says it is

purpose of the time and prosperity killers

A YAKIMA SHIPPERS COSTLY EXPERIENCE.
The Railroad Company Teaches
Him IN LessOu-He Lost Money
On the Goods.

Seattle Telegraph: A certain Yakima
farmer, or shipper, had what he thought
to he carload OF potatoes which he de-
sired to place on the market in Seattle
and secured a car from the Northern Pa
citic railroad company for the purpose of
shipping. When he came to load them
he found that he hadn't quite enough po-
tatoes to fill the car and conceived the
idea Of filing in the rest OF the space with
wheat, the rate being the same. It took
three and a quarter tons of wheat to gil
out the car. He billed the car as potatoes
and it arrived yesterday. When he came
to unload, the company y man was around
to break the seal. Finding the wheat,
the matter was reported, and the shipper
was required to pay the arbitrary rate on
the wheat. amounting to $40 per ton
$3.50 in all-besides paying carload
rate for the potatoes. lie paid what he
would only have had to pay II he had
taken two cars instead OF one. As he only
received about s2l per ton for his wheat,
he lost money OIL the goods.

Cigarettes in Original Packages.

The cigarette law bids fair to become
as notorious as the Iowa and Kansas
liquor cases, and it is currently reported
that the American Tobacco company, or
in other words, the cigarette trust, pro-
poses to test the validity of Washington's
anti-cigarette legislation and expects on
the grounds of decision OF the United
States supreme court in the Kansas liquor
cases TO avert the effect of the law. The
court decided that the state could make
no law prohibiting the sale OF liquor
bearing the government stamp, in the
original package. 1t is contended thai
each package OF cigarettes is an Original
package, and it is claimed that similar
law in Texas is being evaded on thes'
grounds.

Reform In Liquor Traffic.

On and after May 10 next licenses is
sued to storekeepers in this city to sell
liquor not to be drank on the premises
will cost $500 a year instead of $50 as
heretofore. The new rate, which applies
to those whose sales aggregate less than
$500 Il year, was agreed upon by the
excise board on Tuesday Its adoption
is salutary, practicable and proper
measure of excise reform.
1t is salutary because it will tend to
restrict the evil Of surreptitious drink-
ing III grocery, provision and drug stores
which are patronized by women, and in
which the charge for liquor is added to
the cost of household commodities.
1t is practicable. because it will aug
ment the city's excise revenues without
u corresponding increase in the number
of saloons or in the amount of liquor
sold.
1t is proper, because it will do away
with the unfair distinction which has
heretofore existed between ordinary sa.
looms where liquor is sold openly and
stores where the same article is sold pr.
