PITY THE BRAVE POLICE!

II would seem there IL another siege
OF systematized persecution In store 70,
the unfortunate Chicago police force
a bill for some sort of civil service In.
vestigatiOn Of the force IL now pending
In the Legislature. the evident object OF
which IL to cause the discharge OF n
number Of Democratic police officers to
make room for Republicans. This II
one OF the most audaciOus falsehOOds
ever announced by a public man In Il
public place.
Everybody knows what was done
with the police force during the Roch.
and Washburne administrations. 1t
needs no restatement here.
The young man who presented the
bill took occasion to denOunce the men,
bers of the police force. This Is q cal
low youth whose denunciatiOn carries
no weight with II.
The scheme now looks as part of q
deliberate effort to upset the splendid
non partisan and civil service basis
upon which the force has been placed
by Mayor Hopkins for the purposes OF
Republican politicians.

they fear Is not infection, but lower
prices for the cattle raised by them IN

In the death of Frederick Douplnss

In the death of Frederick Douglns,
a slngularly picturesque figure passes
from view. Long before the famous
orator Of the negro race Ind passed hj,
prime Ills people had come to rcgur,i
him very Justly rs their leader In every
movement looking to intellectual nd.
vancement and freedom. Born in 1917.
Douglass felt and understood the evils
Of slavery long before that problem DO.
came an angry issuc of dissension. He
was mere boy when he took his fret
step against the wrong. run away from
captivity and became free. but the les.
sons Of his boyhOod seem to have r..
manned with him. During the COS.
when the great struggle was In actual
progress. lie was no more active In
working for the freedom of the negro
than he was In later years In his labors
to secure for his race the opportunities
for intellectual advancement. Long
after the echoes Of war had died AWAY
Douglass was using his influence, his
industry and his eloquence In the effort
to place his people In the way Of tho
finest achievement and the broadcast en-.
lightenmcnt. 1t was an unsclfish life
and unselfishly spent. The people of
his race can never cease to look upon
him AZ one Of their truest friends and
strongest advocates.

bcrs had bad, uupronounccable names.
and shortly afterwards proceeded to
incite to action the good people" of the
community by referring to the days of
the civil war and telling how the best
citizens Of the land went to the war and
cared not who fought by their sides.
ALI. there Is just where the reverend
gentleman Is mistaken. That very
class Of men did take care who fought
by their sides, and such Of them rs did
not purchase substitutes were very par
ticular who the men were who fought
by their sides and behind their backs
and In front Of them, and It may he
here mentioned that most Of them bore
what the eminent cleric Is pleased to
term unpronounceable names.
No doubt the reverend gentleman
believes that he would have to get n
curling tongs put in his tongue to en-
able him to pronounce the names of
Lafayette. Kosciusko. asosecrans.
sheridan. Meagher or Mulligan. Yet
future generations will pronounce those
names and others like them with rever-
encc and benetliction when the name of
the reverend cynic will have persisted
forever from the face of the earth

guilty Of seduction of his own hired

offspring by eleven out Of twelve men

Another afiiuent prince I'm the domain
Of pelf. who spoke much Of the sins and

auditors were aware that he Is the very

through whom they transact all the
financial business that does not go on
over the green cloth.
More could be said In the way Of an
analysis Of the men who constituted
that meeting. but It Is unnecessary. The
public Is gradually awakening to the
facts.
When the motives Of these men are
understood ana appreciated, when the
voters and the Taxpayers Of Chicago
realize that the public was fooled by a
subsidized press. and by preachers Of
the gospel wound up and set OF blind.
folded upon false issue and without
knowledge of the facts, and by few

1t has long been claimed by medical

1t has seemed for some time as II tho
new and more powerful form Of brake,
for which everybody has been looking,
might be obtained from some electrical
device for that purpose. II electrical
attraction could be used to draw tho
car-whccl and the rail on which It rests
together. It would add much to the fric.
ton brake. 1t Is now reported that un
effective arrangement has been found
IN which the revolution OF the wheels.
after the ordinary brake has been M.
Piled, creates additional electrical pow.
er which IL applied to the further re.
mrdatiOn Of motion. In this problem
OF braking the knotty point seems to be
the limit Of strength In materials and OF
safety for passengers. It Is questioned
whether n brake such as has been le.
scrlbed. for which It IL claimed that II
can stop. within ten feet, n CIR going
ut the rate OF ten miles I'M hour, would
not lift the car altogether from tho
trucks And as fur as the traveller IL
concerned. we can shy certainly that he
wants no more powerful brakes applied
to the ordinary street conveyance. Cars
are now stopped ana started as rapidly
as Is consistent with the maintenance
Of any sort Of equilibrium. A brake
powerful enough to wreck the car 10
which 1t was attached would hive 10
especial advantage over the collision
which Its use would be intended 10

The North German Lloyd Steamship
Company Is not likely to win many
friends or regain any of the prestige It
lost through the sinking of Its steam.
ship Elbe by the manner In which Il Is
treating the survivors of that dreadful
disaster. Several of these survivors
are now In this country. one of whom
lost a wife and child In the wreck.
They were preceded to the United
States by a long cable message from the
company's agents In London adjuring
the people Of this country not to put
confidence In any accounts Of the dis.
aster they might give. Hoffman, who
lost his wife and his son, was brutally
described by the cOmpany's agents as
man making sensational and untruth.
iui statements to magnify his own i'm.
portance. with cruelty which seems al.
most devilish they even set on foot a
story that he might have saved his
family had he chosen, though he. for
his part. declares that his wife was or.
dered from his side and his boy snatch.
cd from his arms when safely In the
~ hcSOIteu tuVI
was kept under constant espionage by
the compnny's agents in New York and
practically made prisoner. 60 far as
the treatment Of this man Is concerned
It justifies the conclusion that the chief
regret Of the steamship company In that
any passengers were rescued to tell the
story OF tho disaster. There appears
to be every evidence that the officers
and crew Of the ship Elbe were ill.dis.
ciplined and cowardly. The mere fact
that only one woman was saved, and
she chiefly through her cxpertncss In
swimming, proves that sufficiently.
That only one boat should have safely
gotten away from the sinking vessel IL
evidence Of the lick Of discipline on
board. The mere obvious facts OF the
horrible casualty condemn the com.
pany and what Hoffman or verera may
have to say adds but little weight to
the condemnation. The steamship
agents IRE as stupid as they were
brutal in prosecuting and maligning
the few survivors of a disaster In which
the servants Of the company showed
to such very great disadvantage.
