ENCOURAGE HOME BUILDING.

The trouble at Pullman has attract
ed considerable attention to the mat
ter of home owning among the labor
ing classes. Men who have made a
close study of this question, aver that
much of the discomfort at Pullman
independent of any other feature
which might enter the question, has
come from the fact that the working
men there have been given no Oppor-
tunity whatever to acquire property.
Outside of their work they had no IL
tereSt there whatever, and were bar
red out from ever having any. This
fact tends to make them more or less
restless, no matter what their cOndi-
tion may be. There was not n tie
which bound them to counsel a con
sentative curse as would have been
the case had a large per cent OF them
either had homes of their own or were
acquiring them. 1t is given as one
great reason why Philadelphia has
such remarkable immunity from
strikes during the past few years is
because the workingmen of that city,
representing a population OF some
thing like a quarter OF a million, have
been encouraged to buy homes of their
own, and that this has also induced
an equal number of other people to do
the same. Having become the owners
of homes they take a permanent in
terest in the welfare of the city and
become more closely identified with
it's welfare. Rev. III. w. Bolton, of
Chicago, who has made a close study
of this question says:
"When men get such an interest
when they WI a house and lot, they
realize that they are identified with
the interests of the community. and
violence and destruction of property
are for obvious reasons very rarely re-
sorted to, and strikes are few and far
apart"
1t is stated that the employees at
Pullman have, during the last ten
years, deposited in the savings banks
So, 000, 900, a sum large enough to buy
all the homes in Pullman. Besides
this sum, they have probably paid
enough in rent during that time to Sc
cure equally as good homes had they
been given the chance, and today they
would have stood as a most prosperous
and contented community, willing to
share with their employers any bust
ness reverse which might have made
it necessary for both sides to cut.
Encouraging the working classes to
secure homes of their own, is a mat
ter which should be carefully fostered
in every community, for nothing will
bring better returns to society. 1t
raises the level of good citizenship,
inspires intelligence, increases pa
triotism and promotes good govern
ment, both local and general, and
gives to mar a character he cannot
otherwise obtain.

The frame shed covering the ma
chinery used in hosting stone from
the quarry to the top of the kiln at
the cement works, burned down at
about mine o'clock Thursday. How it
caught fire is a mystery, unless it
caught where the smoke stack passes
through the roof. The loss will not
be over 5000, as the engine and boiler
were not much damaged. The fire
department was called out, but there
are no water mains in that part of the
city.
Mr.. S. S. Mack. travelling sales
man for the Fibre Ware Works, was
taken violently i'll on the train in cen
trail Iowa last week. A stranger who
recognized him as a brother Mason,
took him to a hotel and tenderly cared
for him until he could be removed to
this city. He arrived here Saturday
and was taken to his home on Jackson
street, where he is improving although
not out of danger. His sickness was
caused by swallowing the seeds Of
grapes which he ate.
The work of clearing away the

Of time Finally Secretary Wilson
stepped TO the front with a sheet in his
hand and in an Apologize tone made
the rather strange statement that the
vote was certainly correct. as the various
TALES had been carefully compared and
showed the same results. He then an
nounced that the vote was as follows:
Jordan --.-.-..--.-...---..-- S59l2
COREY ..... OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES COOS
This, Of course. nominated the for
mer. but no sooner had the announce
ment been made than r. W. Mcbride,
a member of the Marion county delega-
ton. sprang upon a chair and shouted:
Il protest against this outrage More
votes have been announced than were
cast in the convention. demand veri-
fication of the roll"
This sensational declaration and de-
mand, in the face OF the smallness Of
Jordans majority, brought hundreds Of
delegates to their feet and pandemonium
reigned supreme Bob Graham of Ham
ilton seconded NcBride's demand for
verification Of the vote. Delegate Case
Of Putnam said that he lived in a dis
trict where Judge Coffey had held
court for years, and dele
gates thereof were satisfied that
Jordan had been honestly nominated
Chairman Sayre declared that il would
be useless to attempt a verifcatiOn OF
the vote by the call Of the counties as
delegates could easily change their
votes, and any discrepancy that might
have occurred could not be discovered
Delegate Blair OF Clay at this shouted
that he would appeal from the decision
of the chair.
At this juncture the awful Rhody Shiel
climbed over the heads of a dozen dele
gates and began what promised TO be a
long Grafton. A perfect cyclone Of Kisses
and grOans greeted him. however. and
for once in his lifetime he subsided. He
was followed by Charles Audible Book
walter. who made a rather rambling
statement. in which he gave utterance
TO the mOnStTOus statement that never in
the history Of the republican party
had a crime been committed in any OF
its conventions. Finally above the din
was heard the voice of the chairman
saying that he would permit a recall Of
the counties. The call then proceeded
and at its conclusion the vote remained
the same. The friends of Judge Coffey
thereupOn expressed themselves as being
perfectly satisfied that there had been
no crookedness and the nomination OF
Jordan was made unanimous.

Fourth RnlIot.

After the announcement that there
was no nomination Mr. Sulzer went for
ward and. addressing the chair. said:
II am duly grateful for the generous
and faithful support given me by my
numerous friends. 1 recognize that they
have faithfully and honestly guarded my
interests from the start and believe they
would continue to do so until the finish,
but realizing that as 1 was handicapped
in the race from the start by the fact
that there was another candidate from
the same district a rule in politics now
makes it impossible for me to be sue
cessful. l. do not desire to hamper or
interfere with my friends in the free eX-
ercise of their judgment in any way. /
therefore withdraw from the race and
give my friends, who have thus far been
so loyal the privilege TO vote in any
way they see fit. and 1 will say success
to this convention and to the nominee.
whoever he may be-
The remarks were received with cheers.
The balloting commenced again with the
200 votes cast for Sulzer to be thrown
to the other candidates.
After Hamilton county had been called
Aaron Jones rose in the rear of the hall
and amid the sound Of the gavel and
the repeated calls of Acting Chairman
Warren Sayre for order. declared that
he wished to withdraw as a candidate
for the nomination. Tenth and Thir-
teenth district delegates Immediately
surrounded Jones' and it looked for a
moment as if bedlam had been turned
loose. When a semblance of order had
been restored the chairman announced
that the action of Mr.. Jones was out Of
order, but the withdrawal had been
made and the voting thereafter was for
Owen. Watson and Packard. The latter
hui IiChf in on1tr
counties outside Of his own and on a
count II was found he had but sixty
votes. The ballot resulted as follows:

But LOS votes were cast and SIS were

high. Rhody Shiel leaped with one bound
over the heads of the newspaper men
on TO the stage and grasped the hand
of Mrs. Owen who, overcome by the ex-
element, sat weeping. supported by that
indefatigable lady politician, Mrs. John
