Rivals,

I heard this spirit of rivalry very
funnily expressed some time ago. Two
little girls were, on the surface, friends,
but each consumed with a desire to
outdo each other, as there was really
no love lost between them. During
luncheon at school one day one waited
until all the busy tongues had stopped
a second to take rest, and then re-
marked with empressment: 1--WE had
ham, with champagne sauce, for din
ner last night!' and waited to see the
effect of her announcement. 1t was
a success. Every child paused and
ohed and ahed, until the rival, not lik-
ing such an expression of popular SEN
timent, exclaimed scornfully: Huh,
That's nothing! We have our hams
boiled in champagner' And number
one retired ignominiously from the
field, until next time.-Boston Adver-
tiSer.

ALVA c. GARRETT.

The investigation of Alva {.
Garrett who was charged with
rape on Miss Benidlne Brown has
been concluded by special exami-
nation in the Pension office.
Testimony was introduced by
both sides to show the high
standing Of the accused and the
accuser.
The charge of rape, from what
the BEE has learned, has been
disproved.
The question now hangs on
, the testimony of both, whether
Garrett seduced Miss Brown OF
not, which there is some doubt
from what has been testified to
and yet it is believed that Garrett is
the father OF the child.
All the testimony has been sab
mitted to the Commissioner ol
Pension and in all probability it
will be sent to the Secretary Of
the Interior for final action.
Some argue that it will dc
| no good to dismiss Garrett, if
it is believed that he is guilty
There is a great deal OF
sympathy manifested for Garrett
by the recent death of his father
and the responsibility that he
has on him. If there is some way
to protect the girl it is bellev-
ed it Will be done.

A RARE OCCURRENCE.
f, MIR. Eckenrode's Eel Catch Almost I'm
paralleIled in the Annals of Fishing.

MIR. Eekenrode's Eel Catch Almost I'm
paralleIled in the Annals of Fishing.
A remarkable haul of eels was made
the other day by Cosmos Eckenrode,
who was fishing along the Tulpehock-
Ell. There is a variety Of eels known
as the tandem eel, which, is very sell
dom found in this State, though COM
mon in the West. A popularity of this
variety is that they travel, when mi
grating, single file, about six inches
apart, and maintain that distance ex-
actly during the time Of their progress.
II one Of the lot shoots ahead too rap
idly the one following Immediately
grasps him by the tail, in order 10
drag him back to his proper place in
the line. They appear to have re-
markable instinct for distance, and the
variation of an inch will cause the
rear eel to exercise his authority to
put the brakes on the one ahead
While Mr.. Eckenrode was fishing he
hooked one Of the travellers, very
remarkable circumstance, as they sell
dom bite while migrating. AS soon as
he had hooked it he, Of course, gave a
haul on the line, which caused this par
ticular eel to shoot ahead. He was
Immediately grasped by the one fol
lowing, and as that one likewise shot
ahead the next one did the same, so
that when Mr. Eckenrode began to
haul out he found solid rope of eels.
Dropping his rod and line he grasped
the living rope and began to haul in
hand over hand He kept hauling in
and piling up the eels until he was ut
terly exhausted, when he was obliged
to stop and cut the connection. He
quickly ran for assistance, and a num-
ber of the neighbors came to help him
take care of his rare catch. When
they were all gathered up and loaded
on wagons it was found that he had
S75 pounds. About $50 worth were
sent to the Reading market, and the
rest were distributed among his neigh
bors.
The news of his remarkable catch
has spread all over the upper part of
the county, and great many fisher
men have been endeavoring to repeat
it, but without success, since, accord
ing to naturalists, an occurrence of this
sort is one of the rarest in fishing

A member of a. certain church in
this city were recently turned out
for dancing. A member Of the same
church were accused Of being too
familiar with another mans wife
disrupting the family aud causing the
husband and children to suffer thereby
This last member after several attempts
TO lie out of it was found guilty.
But instead of turning him out, they
prayed over the matter and exone r
ated the brother, telling him to go in
peace and sin no more. If dancing
in the sight of the church deserves
severer punishment than lying, CON-
mitting adultery, and running the
happiness of families, then the re-
ligion of today is not the religion of
Jesus Christ. No wonder our churches
are So corrupt when such dev ltry
are permitted and condoned.

Examination Day.

@. What are some Of the chief sources
of happiness in a government founded ON
the will of the people?
A. One great source of satisfaction is
that each man feels that he has perfect
immunity from slavery; that he is not
subject to any kind OF mental or physical
Servitude.
Q. Is not following creed or course
marked out by a party kind OF servtudc
\. Not at all. The creed is only all
aggregation of the individual opinions OF
those who compose the masses and it
corresponds exactly with each ones own
ideas. This is shown by the expression
Of each ones opinions at the polls
ANOTHER great source of happiness is
found in the fact that every man joins in
making his rulers; thereby excluding
from the list all immodest and empty
charlatans. AND elevating to position
only modest and moral men, and men OF
patient merit
9. Under such government do men
having greatest ability and integrity
manage the affairs of state
A. Certainly; that is one Of the first
essentials of and is engrattcd into the
fundamental law Of every such 4 govern
ment.
Q. What is meant by political trades :?
A. That is not the proper technical
term to apply to such transactions, as
suppose you refer to; because it suggests
m unjust inference against the first men
in the government who volunteer their
SERVICES in respect to them, To the edu-
Gated mind negotiation" or Com
promises" or adjustment" would seem
to be more appropriate terms.
9. Well what are they, whatever they
are called
A. They arc certain proceedings insti-
tuted 10y some of the most patriotic and
consdcrate men in the country who, out
of great consideration for the people, as
semble quietly, making no proclamation
which would disturb the tranquility
or happiness of the people, and consult
for the public good. They never charge
the public for services rendered in getting
each other elected to office.

FROM an interview with Henry w.
Cannon of the Chase National Ex-
change bank, New York, published in
The New York World: "The political
party which attempts to impose an
income tax in times of peace will
never be intrusted with powers again.
Such tax is un-American, unjust,
and discriminating to the largest de-
gree. | think means will be provided
for preventing the possibility of de-
ficiency before the the Wilson bill be-
comes law. thegovernment needs
money there are plenty of people
ready and willing to lend it. Do
mean an issue of bonds? Well, that
might do. But | am not at all wor-
ried that the government at any time
will be unable to meet its honest obi
cations"

Don't Want the Income Tax.

The Wilson bill, plus an income
tax, will be suicide for the Democratic
party.-Chicago Herald (Dem.
After protesting for twenty years
against the continued imposition of
war taxes in time of peace, the Demo
cratic party cannot reimpose the
most odious of the war taxes and es-
cape general condemnation.-Neao
York Times { Dem.)
There would be more than $4,000
income tax investigators, spies, itin-
Grant collectors, and computers to
pry into the affairs of the thrifty and
energetic, to disclose the necessities
of the improvident, to provoke the
resentment of those of independent
courage, and put a premium upon the
frauds of the mendacious.-Neso York
Sun Dem.
But why place the limit at $4,000?
Why not reduce the limit to $4,000
or even $1,000, so as to give every
patriot who earns fair living under
the beneicent reign of the prophet a
chance to contribute something to
the support of the government over
and above the paltry amount he
pays in internal revenue taxation and
in his contributions to the 'culmin-
ating atrocities" OF protective tariff
taxation with which the Wilson bill
is SO heavily charged?-MinneGp oAs

The roster job organs which are dis
posed to make much of Mr.. Tracy's
testimony that he did not regard
Secretary Clark as g. state officer,
conveniently conceal the fact that
Gov. Peck did SO regard Mr.. Clark,
and sosmuch regarded him as a state
officer that he entered into secret
contract to defraud the state for the
benefit of Clark and the organ pro-
motors with Mr.. McFail without the
formality of consulting McFail, and
McFail swears that he never saw the
contract till after thegovernor signed
it and Clark brought it to him to OBJ

According to reports the malt
manufacturers of Milwaukee have be-
come alarmed at the proposed repeal
of the duty on barley, and have raised
money to send a lobbyist to Wash
ington to work against this feature of
the Wilson bill. But it seems passing
strange that the maltsters would
fight against free raw material, if the
philosophy of their own Senator
Mitchell is correct. Barley is the
raw material from which malt is
made. Senator Mitchell says free
raw material is a great benefit to
industry .-Oshkosh Northeastern.
Beginning with the making of the
Clinton bank state depository all
the way down through the history of
Tho Times Printing company with
the falsehood and misrepresentation
that daily filled the columns of that
sheet, to the roster conspiracy
against the state, and later the
making of the Stoughton state bank
a depository, the public can read of
the most shameless, disgraceful and
Infamous conduct that ever polluted
public and official life in Wisconsin.
Conspiracies, fraud, misrepresenta-
ton, double dealing, shame and dis
honor mark every single step.-Madi-
son Democrat.

Why a Democrat Opposes the Wilson

Why a Democrat Opposes the Wilson
Bill.
For this reason we are opposed to
the Wilson bill, because it is not in
accordance with the historic policy
of the Democratic party, because it
leaves out Or throws upon the free
list many industries which are special
ly American; and which deserve to be
treated just the same as other indus
tries are treated in the Wilson bill.
We people of Cleveland are interested
in having all the manufactures that
are here or which may hereafter come
here, remain here and prosper.
We do not
wish to foster a policy that is OPP
posed to the interests of the work
ingmen, to the producer and to all
the people. For we certainly believe
that the free trade policy is the most
detrimental to the producing inter-
ests of this country Of anything
which We can imagine to exist, next
to a prohibitive tariff that will build
up monopoliss and trusts and thus
bind the masses of the people down
upon the track before the car of Jug
gernaut. It is the golden means be-
tween these extremes that we favor
and it is there finally, where all the
thinking people, both Democrats and
Republicans, We hope may unite
