Saloon Domination.

La a speech at Augusta. Ga, las

the following stron' pvin; against
the liquor traffic:

ideal, but To the next higher to

Why l. this reasonable expectation
belIed? What il il that an eminent
American statesman has lately said,

j. an irrilescent dream Why Is
it that the application OF political
standards To / rlvate and social life

this question Will lay his finger on
the plague spot IN our national body

What j. at once the most con-
spicuous and the most degrading
fact in American politics? an
swer this: the domination Of the sa-
looms; and this is true, whether YOU
look at the great national parties,
the municipal governments, or the
influence OF the isct upon the per-

In giving this answer to the ques-
ton do not shut my eyes 10 the
tact Of that other great scandal, the
use OF money in elections, but | as

control upon the ground that it has
become chief factor in sinking poll

made the other evil possible, and is

Once upon a time the daughters Of

time" Mrs. Ritchie says in her Mao
milan paper, $50 that we engaged a
carriage and drove quickly to the quay,
where the convicts, olanking in their
chains, were still at work. A boat was
found, rowed by some sailors, who GER
| tainly did not wear chains, but who
were otherwise not very unlike those
industrious convicts in appearance. The
bargain was made, we all five entered
the boat, and as we were getting in we
could see our great ship in the twilight,
looking bigger than ever, and one rock

the shore by this time when suddenly
the boatmen left off rowing They put
down their oars, and one of them began
talking volubly, though l could not I'M
derstand what he said What's to be
done?' said one of the young men to my
father. They say they won't go on IN
less we give them 90 francs more, and
he began shaking his head and remon-
strating in broken Italian. The boat
men paid no attention, Struggling their
shoulders and waiting as if they were
determined never to row another stroke.
Then the steamer sent up two more
rockets, which rose through the twi-
light, bidding US hurry, and then sud
denly my father rose up in the stern Of
the boat where he was sitting, and,
standing tall and erect and in an anger
such as I had never seen him in before

carried more force than all the Italian
polysyllables and expostulations Of our
companions. To our surprise and great
relief, the men seemed frightened; they

row, grumbling and muttering. When
we got on board the ship they told US

In front Of Trinity church stylishiy

eye Of a cable car gripman and did not

down upon her. Passersby expected to
see her ground to earth, but one Of two
tashionably appearing young fellows
with slightly dudish proclivities rushed
to the curb, and lifting the woman by
the arms quickly swung her around and
landed her out of danger on the side

She, all unconscious of her dangerous
predicament, turned on the young man
sharply with an indignant. Chow dare

The driver of this calmly remarked
''That dude saved your life, lady Why

The woman, for the first time realiz.
