The new woman" has won a conspic-
uous victory at Muncie. Ind. She was
represented in the personality of DR.. Anna
Griffin. who went to the theater After the
first act two men. who sat beyond Dr.
Griffin. wanted to stumble over her knees
and toes and go out for "a Glove" The
doctor refused to move or to let them
trample on her feet. The men were so de-
termined to get that Glove" that they
called a policeman to force the doctor 0
let them pass. But the manager of the
theater ruled that the woman had paid for
her seat and was entitled to keep it until
the conclusion of the performance, and
the policeman refused to interfere with
her The men didn't get the Glove
They sat down, amid the laughter of the
house. The doctors pluck has been re-
warded by the refusal of the manager to
issue any more checks between acts. Thus
the new woman" scored victory that
amounts to something, locally.

The Record Pulled on Mr.. Fleming.

The New York Evening Post thinks Mr.
Fleming. the speaker of the Georgia. leg
isiature, makes rather rash statements,
and it proceeds to call him down. In his
letter favoring free silver coinage, he
said, according to the Post. that at the
chasing clause of the Sherman act was
repealed. The Post thinks this rather
a rash statement. even for silverite to
make, and so it pulls the record on Mr..
Fleming, and the record shows, that if
congress represents the people, the pur-
chasing clause was repealed on the demand
of the people. The majority for repeal in
the House was 1S1, and the vote for repeal
was composed of 1873 democrats and 1O1
republicans. The negative vote was com
posed of IA democrats. % republicans and
II populists. Even a majority of the Geor-
gia congressman voted for repeal. the del
egation standing to 4, Mr. Crisp not vot-
ing.
In view of this record the Post would
like to know where Mr.. Fleming gets his
authority for asserting that the silver pur-
chasing clause was repealed at the IBID
ding of the gold monometallist." 1t may
be that his authority is not more reliable
than5the authority for many of the other
assertions the silverites make to uphold
the cause of silver. If they would make
fewer assertions and keep closer to facts
we feel safe in declaring they would have
a. great deal less to say on the silver
question. We shall watch the Post with
interest for Mr.. Fleming's answer to the
Posts friendly, but very pertinent. desire
for Information relative to the matter to
which it calls attention.

Didn't you say the law allowed me

A question For the Chronicle.

The Augusta Chronicle of Saturday has
a paragraph on the article in the Morning
News relative to Mr.. Jennings letter
The purpose of the Chronicles paragraph
is to show that the Morning News quoted
prices of farm products for 1878 and 1894
incorrectly. The Chronicle noticed, of
course, it could hardly help noticing. that
the Morning News stated that the prices it
quoted were in gold. for all the years
quoted. The Chronicle will recall the fact
that in 1873 and up to 1879 gold was at a
premium. viii the Chronicle please say
if it quoted currency prices against the
prices we quoted in gold? The Chronicle
says it only wants to get the truth before
the public That is what we want to do
also.

The "MonrOe Doctors"
From the Philadelphia Record Dem.).

1t will probably grieve the Monroe doc
tors" to learn that the Anglo Nicarag guam
dispute will surely be amicably settled. if,
indeed, it has not already been adjusted.
The subject matter OF the dispute was
sufficiently unfamiliar to the general pub
lie to enable the jingoes to misrepresent
the facts without fear of immediate dis
false issue thus made gave them a much
desired opportunity to shoot off their
mouths and ''discredit" the administration.
The Monroe doctors will now be obliged
to hunt for trouble IN some other quarter;
but they may be trusted to soon find an
other occasion to make themselves ridicu-
lous with their imbecile braggadocio.

The silverites argue that silver was de-
monetized when in 1873 congress decided to
stop the coinage of silver dollar pieces.
Adopting that reasoning, Prof. Laughlin
of Chicago. calls attention to the fact
that in 1890 the gold dollar was dropped
from the list of United States coins, and
says he supposes. from the silverite point
of view. gold dollars were also demone-
tiled by the stopping of their coinage.

This morning the members of the

and ascertain the amount of repairing
to be done. 1t is to be hoped that they
will not overlook that nuisance at the
which is without doubt detriment
to the borough and a disgrace to its
people. There is also another place
that should attract their attention, and
that is the corner of Elm and Pine
streets. There the street was graded in
order to make water run up hill. but in
stead, as the law of gravity objects, 1t
lodges in a pool. During a heavy rain
storm it resembles somewhat the
Lackawanna river. Now the council
ought to use little ingenuity and have
this remedied.
If there is any place in town that
needs the attention of the officers of the
borough it is at the corner of p. d.
Manley's store. The vile and obscene
language that emits from the ruflians

disgraceful.
