THEY ARE AGREED.

What with the Pullman car scandal,
Judge Aliens letter and Jim Legate's
promised expose of the Kansas City
! lottery robbery, the Lewelling admins
tration is having discoura gingly I'M
easy time of it. Briedenthal admits
that Judge Allen wrote the letter.
Judge Allen is an old time, away back,
ante-dating P. P. Elder, but he was an
honest kicker. Ii he had an itching for
office he successfully kept the bee in his
bonnet out of sight. He was nominated
by the Pops for the supreme bench be-
cause they believed him at bottom to be
less self-seeking than PETER, less of an
adventurer than Jerry Simpson and a
sound lawyer. allen could not stand the
rOttenness of which he was cognizant in
and around the state house and so
tol;ing time by the forelock he writes to
Lieutenant Governor Daniels that it
would never do 10 indorse Lewelling
and the state house ring by a renomina-
ton.
But the amusing part of the whole
thing is the protestation of the Pop dele
CATION in congress. PETER. the sly old
whiskered coon, expresses his outraged
feelings together with his added aston
ishment that Allen had no more political
sense than to write such a letter,
although his wild-eyed majesty admits
that he had held similar views to those
expressed by the Pop judge of the
supreme court.
The question that naturally arises is,
how long can the main body of the Pop
ulist party remain blind to the premed-
itatei corruption and unblushing shys-
tering of their hypocritical and corrupt
leaders.

The active operation OF the Chicago
university revives in this city still an
other class of those who gain their live
lihood by honest work while the great
mass OF people are enjoying their sweet
est hours OF slumber. This night
worker skirts dangerously near both
twilight and dawn, and snatches his
scanty hours of sleep between these
two ieeting and fantastic periods. He
is armed at evening with a torch-tipped
rcd, but his guiding light is ambition
and his motto Excelsior" In other
words he is the student lamplighter,
and the dream of future achievement
always sheds halo over his darkest
path, as he zigzags from one lamp to
another, lighting or extinguishing them
as the case may be.
The number of students who worked
their way through the old Chicago
university by this means is legion, and
their honorable race is being revived
from among the attendants upon the
new and greater institution.
Among the students who followed
this profession during the closing DAYS
of the ola university was young man
who now is a member of a prosperous
law firm in the Chicago Opera HOUSE
block. Should some of the clients of
this thrifty and ambitious young law
yer chance to arise early enough and
make a careful scrutiny of the lamp
lighter in certain district they would
probably be greatly surprised. and il
they held fastidious ideas concerning
the difference between the dignity and
responsibility of manual and profess
sional labor they would doubtless be
shocked, for they would recognize in
the lamplighter none other than the
prosperous young lawyer. He likes the
exercise, has no scruples against adding
thirty dollars month TO his legal in
come, and has, consequently, not yet
reached the place where he chooses to
relinquish the old lamp-lighting beat
which furnished him the ''sinews of
war for his university course. What
city beside Chicago can boast of man
who is at once both lamplighter and
lawyer. and who is prosperous in both
vocations?
Each lamplighter has route of from
one hundred to one hundred and five
lamps and receives from the gas COM
pany employing him one cent a night
for Lighting and extinguishing each
lamp. His duties are defined and his
hours governed by book of rules fur
nished by the gas company.
The late night hours, in the minds of
the sober, early-retiring populace are
intimately associated with vice, crime
and dissipation, but brief acquaint-
ance with those who are compelled to

their bread and keep the great wheels

TIE HUMAN BUrCasR. CRAZE.

The Kansas City Star, IN referring TO
the death Of Patti Rosa. appears with q
well-umed protest against the carving
craze so marked of late in surgical prac-
uce. 1t has become the fashion for doc
tors to cut and slash for every conceiv-
able Internal almeut. Thousands Of
women are being butchered annually.
In the great city hospitals cutting has
become fad anu the victims OF the
knife almost numberieSs. The latest
craze Is the vermiform appendix for
which these professional butchers claim

SEE THE WHEELS GO ROUND.

The people who paid their money to
''see the wheels go round" must be
satisfied by this time. For twelve
mortal months the great aggregation of
incompetency and inexperience has gone
round and round, and it is still going,
with Grover applying the brake to the
wrong wheel and giving the crank an
extra turn as the e1egencies of the re-
volving tOrtuority seem to permit. The
idiOsyncrasies and many sided individ-
ualities of an insane asylum are simple
simplicity compared to the aimless raw
ings about silver and tariff which have
clashed and rsbounded, rose and fell,
Increasingly, through the chambers and
up and down the corridors of the capt. oil
from August to August again. There
is, there must be, an end to all things,
but in this instance the chances are that
the country itself will end before the
present session of a congress that seems
not to have known what it wanted, how
they were to get it or where it was to
come from. viii stop its wheels.
