HOME PRODUCTS.
ConspiCuously Boycotted by the
Democratic Party in.sThis
Cifu

A Democratic banner stretched across
Market street, and bearing the portraits OF
Bryan and Sewall, has the following in
scription at the bottom advertising the
makers of the banner:
- National Campaign Equipment Company,
NOS. o. and 30 Fourth street, New York.
This is thoroughly in accord with Demo-
cratic precedent. That party believes in
buying the products of cheap European
labor abroad while the factories of this
country are lying idle. Even while there
are scores and scores of good sign-painters
in this City competent to paint better por-
traits of BRYAN and SewalI than appear
upon the Market-street banner, the Demo-
cratic party, true to its habit of bovcot-
ting home products, has sent to New York
for its banner
This is the Democratic policy of buying

LINEMAN'S FEARFUL FALL
William Kelley Pitched From the
Top of Telegraph Pole.
Only His Arm Is Broken and Unless
Injured Internally He VIII
Recover.

William Kelley is very much surprised this
morning TO find himself alive. His right
arm is broken, his leg is swathed in
bandages and his face is covered with
sticking plaster.
Kelley is lineman in the employ of the
Western Union Telegraph Company. Yes
teruay he fell from the top of a telegraph
pole at the south end of the Long Bridge
When his comrades picked him up he was
unconscious and his arm hung limp at his
side. They thought he was dead, but Supt
Byrnes detected faint sign of life.
He hurriedly placed the man in his buggy
and drove to the Emergency Hospital. X KelIey
was restored 10 consciousness and his arm
set and placed In splints. There was q
deep cut Oh his leg. The injured man was
placed in bed and made as comfortable as
possible.
1t is almost a miracle that he was not
killed outright. The doctors say, however
that unless internal injuries develop, the
man will recover. Kelley was working at
the top of the pole. One leg was over the
cross bar while lie supported himself on the
spur driven into the pole.
This is supposed TO be the safest manner
of working, as it leaves the hands and arms
Tree In some manner the spur gave way,
Kelley lost his balance and went tumbling
TO the ground. The spot where he fell
happened to be very soft from recent ra ms
or he would probably have been instantly
killed.
