 An item in the Winsted Citizen states that the Canaan football team went to Norfolk on Saturday and were much disappointed at finding the Rob- bins eleven bad gone to Winsted. The fact is there was considerable misunder standing in regard to that game and in the morning it was understood here that Canaan were to go to Norfolk, and t~o players, who were expecting to drive-there by circuitous route, were so notified About noon matters straighteped themselves out and it was made clear to the Canaan gladiators that they were not to go to the windy village. It was too late to notify the two representatives who had started ana they accordingly arrived at the arent on the hills to find the foe had gone tt other couquests and that their friends had also .'turned up missing" As thu matter finally resulted none of the thre teams interested played football as tn weather and ground prevented tn Winsted-Robbins game. Canaan football team is considerable of an un certainty this year as it was learned tha only eight players of the team woul' have been in Norfolk had the arrange ments been completed.

The old Bourbons of South Carolina
who used to consider themselves entitled
to rule almost by divine right, sowed to
the wind a great many years and now
they are going to reap the whirlwind.
Tillman has got them under and proposes
to keep them there. When the constitu-
tional convention was first proposed he
made an agreement with the old Conser-
vatives to give them half of the delegates
But he has grown SO bold and powerful
that he has decided to repudiate this
trade and allow the Conservatives only
what delegates they can elect, and as he
controls all the counting machinery and
has besides an undoubted majority of the
white voters of the state behind him this
will be very few. Tillman will undoubt-
edly have full control of the convent ion
and whatever he says will go. His pro-
gramme is to disfranchise the negroes
entirely, but to shut out no white man S
vote except as a punishment for crime
He will also put ansendsto the power of
ths. Stiste.ss1o make appropriations for
schools for cofored people, ana thus put
an end to the education of the negro
AS he hates railroads and everything else
which requires large accumulation of
capital to carry on, some very drastic
measures will be adopted against corpora
tions and accumulated wealth. Indeed
the prospect is that when Tillman gets
through with it South Carolina will be
in a far worse condition than was ever
threatened Kansas or Colorado by fanat-
ical Popu1ist rule. The old Conserva-
tives who regarded South Carolina for a
great many years as their private prop
ETY.. and ruled it accordingly. will discover
within a few months that while the mills
of the gods grind slowly they grind ex-
ceeding small.

plain she knew that only prompt action
upon her part would save her husband.
Taking down the Winchester and the car
fridge belt from the wall, and leading
her two children she hurried from the
cabin to the tunnel just in time to meet
her husabnd as he started for dinner
She hastily told of the news that had
been communicated through the crevice.
To make barricade of the mining tim
ber on the dump was the work of but
few moments, and with his wife and
children in the tunnel out of harm S way,
he patiently waited the first move Of the
enemy. The visitors sat impatiently at
the spring until nearly o'clock, without
seeing any signs of the miner, when they
decided to slip into the tunnel and wait
there until he had returned. The party
stole forward and as they clambered up
the dump of broken rock they were met
by q rapid and telling fire that killed two
of the party and wounded another. A
hurried retreat alone saved the survivors,
and, although the dead were inferred at
the place where they met their fate, none
of the attacking party were ever after
heard from.

posed of for sum that enabled Dempsey

THE RIOT IN BOSTON.

There was no excuse. nor semblance of
an excuse, for the attack upon the pro-
cession in East Boston on the Fourth of
July. SO far as we can discover from the
accounts of the Boston papers there was
nothing in the parade which could be
construed as defiance to anybody, un-
less it was the little red school house or
the American flag. But for police pro-
lection, it is evident that the parade
line, by a mob so large as either to have
dispersed it or caused a general riot which
would have resulted in large loss of life.
AS it was, most of the parade was too
strongly guarded to admit of attack. but
towards the end weak point was found
and this was assaulted with sticks and
stones. The fatality took place after the
parade was over, when some of the parad-
ers were on their way to their homes. A
crowd followed them and pelted one of
the number with stones until his head
was severely cut and his life was in dan
ger. In moment of desperation he
drew revolver and firing at random shot
OaO illdl tlCttt. <1o usually UdDDeQS IN
such cases the man shot was an innocent
spectator who had not been concerned in
the affair.
The reason for the attack is clear enough
The procession was made up largely of
the members of the American Protective
Association, and on this account aroused
the hostility of some of the Catholic ele-
ment Now whatever ones view may be of
the American Protective Association, its
principles or its methods of advancing
them-and the PRESS has condemned
some of both-it has the right to
exist, and glorify the American sys-
TEN of education in any way it
thinks proper provided it does not
enoroaeh upon the rights of others or
violate the law. There is no pretence

HURTING TROLLEY ROADS.
Bicycles Seriously Affect the Receipts O.
California Street Railways.

1t will interest Brooklyn citizens who
are opposed to the trolley to learn that in
some of the far western cities the electric
car sysetm is threatened with bankruptcy
by new danger. This is the ubiquitous
bicycle The neighboring cities of San
Francisco and Oakland are SO given over
to the delights of the wheel that half the
street railroads have gone into the hands
of receivers, and the other half are strug-
Cling along with difficulty.
Particularly in Oakland are the trolley
lines suffering. The streets there are
nearly all level and well paved, and the
percentage of bicyclists among the popu-
lation in tremendous It is fact vouched
for by one of the trolley magnates, who,
by the way, rides wheel himself and
saves car fare, as his road is run on pure
ly no-pass principles, that but one road in
the city is doing better than just paying
expenses. The gross receipts of every
trolley road in the place have been re-
duced fully one-third 6by the craze for
wheeling, and as the operating expenses
remain the same despite this Production OF
custom, the roads find themselves in a
bad way.
Conditions almost as unfavorable tc
the trolleys prevail in San Francisco.
Here, on account of the hills and the bad
pavement in many streets, the disad.
vantages and discouragements to the
cy clists are greater. Nevertheless, one OF
the principal lines of the city alone is
losing $1,000 a month. An official of one
of the roads says:
Hundreds of people who used to spend
thirty cents day regularly on the street
car lines in this city now own their bicy-
cles and save that amount daily. A rail
road received that amount from each
regular traveller, and nearly every regu,
lar traveller now has wheel, and as
result the railroads get only the tran
sient travel. These estimates are made
from the receipts of our road. We f1no
that our out flown line has not beer
hurt much, but our in-town line has lost
one-third of it's income. -
Here the bicyclists have added insult te
injury, for their favorite wheel paths are
the nicely paved roadbeds of the very
trolley lines from which they are taking
the means of support. And worse yet, in
the cases where the roadbeds are not such
as find favor in the eyes Of the knights o1
| the. wheel they are seeking to obtain
legislation forcing the companies tc
bitumenize the roadbefls. 1t is intimated
| that every bicycle sold in San Francisco
means a loss of twenty five cents day tc
some one of the trolley lines. At this
rate what will become of the Brooklyn
trolleys when the bicycle craze reaches its
height?-N. Y. Sun.

do, in quiet and orderly way. 1t had a
right to be where it was and to do what
it was doing. The spirit which inspired
it may have been offensive to Catholics.
The little red school house may have been
regarded as an aspersion upon their
method of teaching through the parochial
school. But none of these things con-
stltute the slightest justification for a
Jeeror a hiss or least of all an attack with
missiles Roman Catholic citizens are
given equal rights and equal privileges
under the law in this country with all
other citizens. Their ideas are not
rellshed by considerable part of the
population, yet nevertheless they are
| allowed to entertain them without moles-
tatlon. One of their priests recently in
dulged in some very unjust and abusive
language IN regard to the society. of
Christian Endeavor, but he was neither
attacked with sticks and stones nor
hooted in the streets Disapprobation
was expressed at his remarks but in a
perfectly lawful way. The Catholic citi-
zen has right to express his disapproba-
TO crltlclze them in his newspaper, to
preach and to speak against them. But
he is bound to refrain from assaulting
them, or jeering at them on the streets or
doing anything else calculated to provoke
a breach of the peace. The tolerance
which the Catholics ask for and get for
themselves, they must extend to others
no matter how much they dislike them.
This is free country and a man has the
right to criticise Roman Catholic
doctrines and methods. TO undertake to
abridge that right by such performances
as that in East Boston is certain to give a
tremendous impetus to A. P. Aism
The Catholics are in a small
minority in the country, and they can ill
afford to stimulate religions antagonism.
The more intelligent portion of the
Catholic population no doubt deprecate
such an affair as that in East Boston, but
unfortunately in our large cities there is
a large body of Catholics who are ignor-
ant and fanatical and upon whom the de-
nunciation of any order or body
by the influential men among them
operates as direct Indictment to physical
| violence against that order or body. For
that reason the leaders ought
to be exceedingly cautious of their
speech lest they SOW seeds which in the
fertile soil of the lower stratum of their
people may quickly spring up and bear
bloody fruit. The American people love
fair play and the spirit of the great ma
jority of them is tolerant. Unjust attacks
/ upon the Catholic church will soon spend
their force if let alone. On the other
hand the great mass of the people are not
SO much in love with Catholicism that
they will stand by and see such outrages
AS that perpetrated in East Boston with
out the strongest expressions of disap-
proval and resentment Catholics are
continually protesting against religious
bigotry. Let them practice what they
preach. They ask tolerance, let them set
an example of. tolerance. When they do
that A. P. A. societies will cease to have
any influence or attract to their ranks
any but rattle headed fanatics
