LIAR SWALLOWS MS WORDS.

LhAh hhALLONH Ills NOhb's
One week ago today THE LEADER
said:
Within six days The LEApEH will
prove that the State Capital is an un-
reliable sheet and an unmitigated liar
as we'll We will make the Capital
swallow It's own statements"
What THE LEADER asserted has come
to pass.
Ever since election day the Evening
Capital contended thai Flynn was
elected and urged all persons who
had placed money on Flynn not to give
up their wagers.
THE LEADER was the only paper in
the territory that paid out money for
territorial election returns, and the
two territorial eentraleonmittees de-
ended on the kilograms received by
this paper from the twenty three
counties OF the territory for their 10
telligence.
Our evening contemporary spent not
sou for returns and, except for gen
eral statements TO the effect that
Mckinley and Flynn were elected by
large msjorities, did not mention
results. THE LEADER printed all the
specials just as they came and for one
week printed intelligent tables Of the
Flynn Callahan vote Tne Capital
proflted by THE LEADERS enterprise
10 make general statements, but its
readers were obliged TO buy THE
LEADER to obtain any definite infor-
nation pert Aining to election results.
A week ago when THE LEADER d.
elared that Callahan's majority wouloI
exceed 1900 the evening paper charged
The LEADER with taking returns and
declared that Flynn was elected
THE LEADER offered the Capital $500
for every fake election telegram ap-
peAring in this paper, but the Capital
failed TO cover, but continued its chat
ter about Flynn being elected.
Friday the territorial Republican
central committee met in this city and
il seems the committee injected some
common sense and judgment into the
Z 80 :. ifs-DsB OF Greer. Mr. Flynn and
Mr.. Grimes informed Mr.. Greer that
ne was an ass, had been an ass for sew
erAi months, and that he had wasted
political space on Sans American rot,
after the committee had paid for the
preparation OF good Flynn material,
which would have helped the Republi-
can candidate had It been printed and
run II. In fact Flynn and Grimes
d. d. a. I. L Greer. The result is that
the Capital last evening, in a sitting,
lAchrymose manner, comedies Flynn's
defeat and magnanimouly places Cal
lAhan's majority at 9l0. In order to
squirm out Of a lie IL gnashes its teeth,
foams at the mouth and cries fraud,
as II mai,es its belAtcd concession,
The cry Of fraud is silly, since Repub
Leans manipulated election boards IN
every county and had the money al
hand - vary out any sort OF nefariou,
scheme
Mr. CallAhans majority is l,32i
The Official count will not change thii
twenty votes. THE LEADER congratu
lAtes Mr.. Callahan on his victory and
also Mr.. Flynn. who made an earnest
clean campaign.
As for the capital-if you see il il
that paper its lie. THE LEADER Ia
forced the Capital to swallow il
charges. During the last few year
THE LEADER has shown by proofs ant
Hnidavits that the Capital has lie
ninety.six times out Of every 100 state
meuts IL has made.

The Value
OF Good
Eye Sight.

Some things areright in my
line, and the optical business
is one of them.
This department is one to
which | devote most of my
time, giving the greatest
amount of care and attention
to each individual case. Eyes
are tested in a scientific
manner.
The latest appliances are
used, which make the test
less trying to the patient,
and we guarantee absolutely
perfect results in every case.
The value of a correct and
comfortably fitting glass can
not be over estimated in such
cases where the trouble is
directly due to imperfect
vision. Many see distant
objects we'll, yet are con-
stantly troubled with per
hapS headaches, "a burning
sensation in the eyes, or oc-
casional blurring of the print
when reading, yet are reluc-
tant to attribute it to an
actual defect of vision.
Being able to discern dis
tant objects, is by no means
a sure indication that your
eyes are normal.
Extreme far sight is as
great a defect as near sight.
and requires the same treat
ment.
Glasses are the only relief,
and these should be of the
right kind.
1t is our business to supply
you with only these.

DR.. Lundy in Cairo.

DR.. E. A. Lundy, formerly in bust
ness here as a dentist, is now To-
Gated in Cairo, Egypt, and is doing
well. He divides his time be-
tween Egypt and India, and is de-
lighted with those countries. In a
letter to T. E. Wall, an old friend,
DIR. Lundy gives a graphic descrip-
ton of Cairo, its people and many
interesting sights to be seen. There
are several thousand Americans
and Europeans in Egypt, and
according to DR.. Lundy there is
much pleasure to be derived from
a visit to the capital city and ad-
joining towns.

A BOoTBLACKING SYNDICATE.
How "A Bright COIOrcd Boy HIS Con-
troll of All the Best Business.

From the Baltimore American.
st. Louis, Sept. 1O-There are syndicates
and syndicates, but Ed Jarvis has one all
his own that for ingenuity and enterprise
| equals any of the syndicates more pre-
| tentious in scope. Jarvis is a colored boy
about 10 years of age, and has been a
bootblack ever since he was able to han
| die a brush. He was not satisfied with
carrying around a box and picking up
nickels here and there, so he conceived
the idea of forming a syndicate, with Ed
Jarvis as sole owner and manager. He is
also president, secretary, treasurer, book
keeper and collector.
His syndicate is in the shoe polishing
business and he figured out that if he
could secure enough regular customers
he could afford to shine shoes for a much
smaller price than a nickel He chose
the City hall as the first field of action,
so he gave his enterprise the name of
the "City Hall Syndicate" His next
move was to have neat little book of
printed blanks made, and with this he
made the rounds Of the offices in the City
hall and unfolded his scheme. He would
have expert shoe-shning artists call on
each man who signed his book, and shine
his shoes once each day for the small
sum of 10 cents per week.
no trouble in getting almost everyone to
whom he explained his pan to agree to
become a customer He then hired two
bootbacks and put them TO work, but
his list Of customers increased so radily
that the next day he was compelled to
add two more to his force.
When the city hall end of the syndicate
was running along smoothly Jarvis look
ed about for another field, and decided
on giving the court house a trial. His
first move there was TO secure q permit
to erect a stand. This was secured with
out difficulty. and yesterday morning the
stand was erected, and, with his little
book, he made the rounds Of the Offices
In the building
SO great was his success that all almost
all the clerks are now his customers.
when q customer signs the agreement
he ls given "a ticket good for six shines.
ed asks no money IN advance, but every
Saturday he appears with "a typewrltten
list Of his customers and collects the ten
cents. Not only clerks. but some of the
judges are Jarvis customers.
Two men arc working nj the court
house stands, BUT the proprietor expects
20 add three more chairs in a few days.
and he will then be- better able TO handle
the rush OF customers II was suggested
hy one Of the judges yesterday that Jarvis
would likely lose some money on not col.
