Two More Reported this Week In tho
Town.
Etnaville is infested with thieves, as
is proven by the many rooberies. About
all the chickens in the town have been
stolen, but William Huss, the saloonist,
still had ten fine fowls until few nights
ago. Thieves entered his yard, broke
open his chicken GOOD and took all the
fowls. The robbery was not discovered
until the next morning, and there is 90
clue. 1t has been but shorttime since
robbers entered the residence OF Mr.
Russ, stole iewslry, whisky, cigars and
rummaged things generally.
Last Wednesday night there was a
bold attempt atrobbery at the residence
of Joseph Kaiser, also Of Etnaville
There were two of the thieves and one
was crawling through transom when
Mr.. Kaiser arrived on the scene. One
OF the men escaped, but he caught the
other but could not hold him. The
thieves were not known.

A BIT OF A TIME
Interrupted by the Police and Six Arrests
Made.

There has been a good deal OF com.
plant, of late, about the disorderly coz
duct al the home of Add Hayes, color
ed, in toe rear Of the Atlantic engine
house. Hayes has white wife, and
the house is place Of resort for both
whites and blacks, who engage in sport
OF very hilarious nature, making the
welkin and other things ring with yells,
cuSs words and miscellaneous noise.
Last evening the usual side-spitting
domestic comedy was put on the boards,
and the racket was rather more than
usual. II was stood for q time, and
then Officers Creighton, Buch and Hal
pin called, and arrested Add Hayes,
George Burk and Frank Taylor, colored,
and Maggie Hayes, Mary Burk and
Conner Jones, white, and they were all
locked up.
The place is given 10 to drinking,
opium smoking, and several other sorts
of deprayity, and should be summarily
suppressed.

Wa. he Chewed BY a Dog?

The physician who examined the
wounds of Joseph Doyle, the man who
came to police headquarters early yes
terday morning, with the story that he
had been shot at Little Washington by
two colored men, stated yesterday that
the man was not shot, but had been
chewed by some animal, presumably a
dog. Doyle'S neck was chewed and torn
until the carotid artery was almost ex-
posed, and one of his hands was also
mutilated and one OF his thumbs was
particularly badly lacerated. An en-
counter with q bull dog might explain
the case.

Diana ,ion of the Recent Trouble in Den
Those Changes.

Our old party friends are great fell
lows to talk about changes. Our Dem
ocratic friends have been demanding q
change for thirty years, and now since
the Democrats have got into power
and the tree which our Republican
friends have chopped down has fallen,
Republicans shout at every one they
meet, How do you like the changer"
Well. all we can say is, that if Uncle
Sam has changed teams, he has not
changed drivers. Wall Street and
the monopolies still hold both the
lines and the lash, and the one team is
just us obedient as the other, or per-
haps little more so.
But what of tho change, sure
enough? Let us see. The financial
prosperity Of country is best known
by the prices of its staple products,
isn't 1t? Examine the following table

Which years were Democratic and
which Republican? Can you tell by
the figures? You see it is regular
decline all the way down with scarcely
q halt. Tt was Republican from 1872
to 1884: Democratic from 1884 to 1888 !;
Republican from 1888 to 1892; Demo
cratic from 1892 to the present UNI
fortunate hour. We give the dates of
election instead of those of the inau-
gurations-a few months make little
difference where there is no change
anyway. But what is the matter with
1890? There you note a leap upward.
But there was no political change that
year, nor was there any failure of crops.
In that year the silver men forced the
adoption Of the Sherman law, which
a Democratic President thrashed the
Democratic party into repeating.
But why did prices fall again before
the repeal? Because the Secretary of
the Treasury disregarded the law, re-
pudiated silver, and re-established the
gold standard. None are SO blind as
those who will not see. -Progressive

The Chicago Times is publishing q
striking series of articles on the in
equality of taxation in that city. One
of these. pointedly illustrated, is re-
produced in this issue Of the Noncon-
7ormist. It speaks for itself and must
be read to be appreciated. Precisely
the same abuse prevails in every city
in the country, though probably in .
less aggravated form. Those who are
best able to pay taxes escape with
light burdens. while the less fortunate
have to make up the deficiencies.

Who Will DeuV 1t.


A close observer of the times has
figured it out that:
The chief business of our lawmakers
for the past thirty years has been to
make men wealthy by law.
When the Government repudiated
its own promise to pay, by refusing to
accept the greenbacks in payment for
customs, it made great many men
wealthy by law.
When it next proceeded to call in
these greenbacks and issue bonds for
them, it made more men wealthy by
law.
When it paid gold for bonds bought
with greenbacks-which had been pur-
posely depreciated-it made more men
wealthy by law.
When it declared that bonds which
had been made payable in coin should
wealthy by law.
When it demonetized silver and in
creased the obligation of every debtor,
it made more men wealthy by law.
When it adopted the system falsely
called protection to American indus
try" and authorized few monopolists
to levy on the producers of America a
tribute of billion dollars year. it
made more men wealthy by law.
When it donated millions Of acres Of
the best lands in the nation to railroad
corporations. it made more men
| wealthy by law.
When it built up the great liquor in
terests Of the country, it made more
men wealthy by law.
Why, the main business of our Gov
eminent - the principal thing for
| which it has existed for the past thirty
years-has been to make men wealthy
| by law.
The Government has been in the
business or making men wealthy by
law for thirty years. It has succeeded
so we'll that We have 200, 900 men made
wealthy by law and about sixty million
people more or less impoverished by
law.
There is no trouble about making
men wealthy by law, but it should not
be done. That is not the province OF
law. The purpose Of Government is
to secure men in the enjoyment of their
rights, to protect the weak from the
| aggressions of the strong, not to make
men wealthy by law.
The need of the day is that the Gov
eminent shall cease making q favored
few wealthy by law and protect the
multitude in their right to become
wealthy by industry.

bribery and perjury. Our laws and
Government seem to be based on the

Or1O0Iy ana perjury. OuI laws anu
Government seem to be based on the
principle that ITO those who have
much shall be given, while from those
who have not shall be taken even the
little that they have" In Indianapo-
lis it is only necessary to examine the
tax lists to see that the assessment
laws are Systematically violated and
alwas in favor of the rich and against
the poor. The valuable blocks of
buildings on the main business streets
are all assessed below their value, while
in the residence portion of the city the
owners are forced to pay on almost the
face value of their property. The av-
erage rate of difference in the two
classes of property will reach % per
cent. in this entire city. BY this skin
game" careful writer, who has made
close study of the subject, estimates
that there is shortage of $l3, 40, 600
in the value of lots alone in this city
that escape taxation. It is such facts
as these that intensity the ever grow
ing conflict between the rich and the
poor, always condition threatening
the most dangerous results. As the
Chicago Times we'll says, those who
protest against this legalized robbery
are called anarchists" and socialists"
The people are robbed and then de-
nounced for Directing. The sheep in
to whose flesh the sheers are driven
are denied the poor privilege of kick.
The question under discussion is only
one of many that attest the frightful
CAPABILITIES that have grown up in this
country under our all-prevailing class
legislation. It is the same condition
that prevailed before the French revo-
luton and finally eliminated in the
CHASTITY Reign of Terror. 1t is the
same condition that preceded and
brought about the secession of the
Plebeians from Rome and the demand
for reform which resulted in the estab-
lishment of the Tribunes of the Peo-
pie. We have reached in a hundred
years the state of affairs which it took
many centuries to produce in France
and Rome. While in theory possess
ing the popular form we have in fact
that worst of all possible Governments,
the combination of the oligarchic and
artistocratic. The two combined usher
in the dreaded plutocracd, under
whose blighting rule the choice flowers
of our civilization are whitening and
perishing. While our constitution
prohibits all titles of nobility and rec
ognizes no distinction of classes, we
have in fact the most hateful of all
missionaries, the one based exclusively
upon wealth. Concentrated wealth
and overgrown fortunes, even when
honestly obtained Gf such thing be
possible) are not pleasant things to
contemplate. But when known to be
the result of fraud or robbery under
the forms of law, it is most hateful i'll
the sight of free people and con-
slant menace to social order. All the
bloody revolutions of history have been
due primarily to abuse of the taxing
power. The extractions and oppres-
sions of the privileged classes a.
length became unbearable and pro.
duced the inevitable result. Unless
swept away by the trenchant broom OF
reform they will be cleft asunder by
the keen blade of observation-disclosures
formist.
