He Is Regarded as Practically
Owning Mckinley, and would
Dictate the Policy OF his Ad-
miniStration.

AS ruthless in politics as in business
as careless of public as of private.right,
by fair means or foul, by hook or crook,
Mark Hanna wages his war and pro-
poses to land his man.
It is well to know these things, and a
world honest about its destiny is CRATE
full to Hanna for the black warning OF
his words. Nor does world despair.
Wrong does not always win right is now
and then the gvictor, and Satan has re-
ceived setback before now. Were a
prophet in our midst today he would
tell our red-faced Lochel that Mckinley
is to pluck defeat; and in his overthrow
Hanna himself is to be crushed for the
spider of politics that he is.
This is letter to work ingmcn. Their
foe is in the open ground. Their
warmest enemy, Hanna, the man who,
for thirty years, has torn at the TANKS of
labor like wolf, is in command. The
field is stricken. By the pretense and
open-eyed manoeuverings of money it
self, this is war waged by the rich on
the poor; wealth against perishing flesh
and blood. The issue isn't so much
finance. The questions truly at bay are
Shall the many toll and toll and sweat
for few? Shall the leeches suck
blood? Shall widows houses be de-
voured7 Shall nation become prey and
spoil to syndicate? Shall the Phari-
sees sit in the high places? Shall the
money-changers again occupy the tenn
Pile? Shall there be second cruci6xion?
Shall government of the people, by the
people. for the people, perish from the
earth7 IF the workmen of the country
fail at this crisis to successfully conserve
their own, they deserve the letters now
forging for them. IF the commons of
America cannot buckler against attack
that war-worn freedom the fathers of the
nation passed down to them, their fee
bleness merits its loss. IF institutions
which Washington founded and a
Grant defended are to become finally the
footstooi of Hanna, the time has ripely
arrived to find it out.
Mckinley is of no present or future
consequence. Hanna is casting the
shadow in this campaign. The candi-
date is swallowed by the manager. The
Canton mute is merely syndicate en-
try for the White House stakes. Nc

BATTLE WITH sEAMEN.

Hanna in his enterprise employs
thousands of men. He has fought
strikes and lockouts with every one of
them. There is not man at work for
Hanna today who doesn't hate him with
heart of fire. Why? Because he feeds
on them, devours them at every chance.
Those twenty millions of his are 95
per cent the yeriest pillage of labor.
Hanna lives and wakes fair today. the
best specimen of the modern anthro-
popaghi.
Hanna's first labor war of worth and
weight was with the Seamen's Union of
the Great Lakes. I've told the story
before. The battle began in 1882. 1t
lasted four bitter years. Hanna had a

THE MOSLEM WORLD.
ITS Wrath Rising Against tho Policies OF
Europe.

1t almost seems as if the words of the
deceased French statesman, jules
Simon, who died in June last, had in
them the possibilities Of a prophecy.
Beware. he said, in substance, of the
Mohammedans. "They see Europe
overrunning Asia and Africa. The
question with them is: TO be or not to
be?' The relations between the con-
quered Moslem peoples are being Sc
cretly revived. Everything in the east
is asleep; nothing is dead. Re on your
guard against the awakening"
These words are brought to mind by
the dispatch of the Herald's special
correspondent in Constantinople, Mr..
Sidney Whitman. 1t is remarkable
dispatch and is worthy of a serious CON
sideration by the peoples of Europe.
The Moslem world is weary of domina-
ton and interference and senseless
slaughter in the name of Christian civ
ilization. Among the Softas, the lead
ers of thought in the Turkish Moham-
medan world, the conviction gains
ground, Mr.. Whitman says, that the
twilight of Moslem rule in CONSTANT
nople has come. Remembering their
warlike past, the Mohammedans have
in despair resolved to light the funeral
pyre. The English attacks on the
sultan have increased their determine
ton to face unflinehingly the worst"
There is probably great truth in
these words, and if the torch of fanati-
cism is once lighted throughout the
Moslem world who can tell the end?
The Italians have been defeated and
driven out of Abyssinia by the ne
gus, who is a Christian, but who
had to make alliances with the
dervishes in order to maintain his
1 Independence and his very existence.
Now the English are pressing on to the
1 sacred city of the dervishes in the
/ Soudan, with the intention of wiping
that stronghold of Modernism out of
existence. VIII they or can they sue
ceed? Reflect" said Jules Simon,
that there are behind the dark curtain
] in Asia and Africa more than two or
! three civilizations of immense an
tiquity, ready 10 recognize and revive
their ancient glories, and all the more
formidable that after long resistance
they have eondescended to use the
wca pons acquired from us"
Must we beware the awakening of
this sleeping fanaticism of the Moslem
world?-N. Y. Herald.

NO LAUREATE.
France Cannot Welcome the Czar In
Authoritative Verse.

France possesses, says Paris CORE
spondent, an academy of As immortals,
butshe does not boast of poet laureate,
so that when the tsar made his ap-
pearance here there was no official
bard to bid him welcome in eloquent
strains. In revenge, and, perhaps, with
view to atoning for this deficiency,
quite galaxy of rhymsters were busily
engaged on the task of weaving verses
on the event, which were des-
tined to kindle the enthusiasm of the
frequenters of the music halls and kim
bred places of amusement. Upwards of
% songs have thus been composed, and
the majority of them are awaiting the
approval of Lhe censor, TO whose inspec-
ton they have been submitted. One.
however, is already delighting the au-
dience OF a popular cafe-chantant. 1t
is entitled "Francillonnette ct Nicolas"
and on one cover the emperor is depict
cd with the ribbon of the Order of st.
Andrew giving his arm TO a girl wear
ing the Phrygian cap. Francillonette
has been courted by two lovers. "ta
premier s-applait Guillaume,' while the
second, "C'etait lie beau Nicolas" She
has chosen Nicolas, and she will no
longer be alone, as he will defend her.
They marry and spend the honeymoon
in Paris. Among many other produc-
tions intended 10 catch the popular
taste are "Nivc PEmpereur de Kgssie."
the "Salut au Tsar" and lie Bienvenu."
Another ditty sets forth that if the EN-
leror began his journey spar Breslau.
Guillaume, ct Berlin" this was simply
an affair OF good manners, but thar
'chez-nous il Went pour son plaisir."

in many instances as the one eonsid-
sred to rhyme best with ''Tsar." Such

DEADLY OCCUPATION.


The deadliest occupation for men or
horses is teaming in the borax fields of
Death valley of the Great American
desert. There the longest teams in the
world are employed. Scientists declare
that the fierce heat in this narrow rent
in the cracked surface of the earth is
not equaled elsewhere in the world.
Where the Thermometer often registers
140 degrees of heat, unrelieyed by even
breath of air; where men sleep at
night in hollow bitches filled with
water in order to avoid dying from col
lapse, the necessity for the longest
teams of mules and horses ever har-
messed to draw the great borax-laden
wagons is apparent.
The desert team is the longest in the
world, and the percentage of deaths
among the horses is greater than that
of domestic animals used in any other
calling. Forty to 60 horses are often
hicles in which the borax is slowly
dragged across the sun-baked alkali
plains. The average life of even the
sturdiest horses used in this work is
six months, for in this length of time
they either become -winded,
eonsumptive from inhaling the deadly
dust of the desert or are driven crazy
by the frightful heat.
A man there, though protected by
the wagon awnings from the suns
rays, cannot go an hour without water
without danger of death. When team
breaks down and the water supply be-
comes depleted, the men ride ON at top
speed for the nearest source of supply,
and often when they return they find
that the remaining horses, nude mad
by thirst, have broken from the harness
and dashed off only to find death in the
desert.
The boraX wagons weigh 5000 pounds
and carry 10000 pounds at a load. Be-
hind each wagon is a tank containing
hundreds of gallons of water. The
horses are harnessed in pairs, the
trained ones in the lead, and the next
in intelligence just ahead of the tongue,
while the unruly and the youngsters
are hitched between. The nigh leader
has a bride with the strap from the left
Jaw shorter than the other, and from
the bride runs braided rope which
the driver, perehed on the wagon seat,
holds in his right hand.
The rope is called the ''jerk-line, and
is little longer than the team, which
stretches out several hundred feet in
front of the wagon. During the busy
season the boraX wagons make an al
most continuous train, and the horses
alone, if placed in single file, would
make a team more than 100 miles long
Besides little food and water the
poor animals get no care. They curry
themselves by rolling in the burning
sand. After a few months of the kill
ing labor the poor creatures become
unfit for service. A kindly rife ball
then ends their agony, and their
emaciated carcasses are left alongside
the trail to furnish scant picking for
the lowering vulture.-California Let

FEW DOGS BECOME RABlD.
Many Dogs Supposed to BE Mad Are
Only Ill

many Dogs supposed TO bc nhhu 4Are
Only Ill
There is a popular deluson regard
ing the prevalence of madness among
dogs, especially in the summer season
John p. Haines, president of the Ameri'
can Society for the Prevention of Cruel
ty to Animals, is authority for the state
ment that of the thousands of alleged
mad dogs reported by the newspapers
and police few, if any, are really mad.
The general opinion seems to be that
when a dog acts at oil strange-runs
around, barks, or does anything to call
attention to him-he is mad and must
be shot at once. Otherwise he might
bite some one, with dire results. In a
hot spell, when man and beast alike are
suffering from the effects of the sun
rays, the mad dog story is revived. While
men and women are being picked up in
the streets and taken to hospitals, while
horses are falling in their tracks and
are being shot to put them out of mis-.
cry, the poor dog, mans fayorite com
panion, is again made the subject OF
unwarrantable SANDER.
Mr.. Haines told a Tribune reporter
that it was a great mistake that the
public should have been kept so long in
ignorance of the true features of mad
dogs. Much of the terror and fear OF
hydrophobia which now exists might
otherwise have been avoided. If people
could be led to understand that real
mad dog was of exceedingly rare occur
renee, and that there was little danger
from dogs which acted in the manner
usually described as mad, a great load
would be lifted from the minds OF many
an anxious parent and guardian.
The common notion of mad dog was
one that frothed at the mouth, ran
wildly through the streets. snapped at
every one that came in his way, and re-
fusing TO drink or go near water. The
true symptoms, il was said, are de.
sire on the part of the animal to get into
the water and put his head in il. There
is no frothing at the mouth. Instead
there is a dark, thick, sticky substance
which exudes from il. Instead OF run
ming wildly about the mad dog will 60
of by himself and sulk. His tendency
is rather TO leave his home and roam
aimlessly about the country. He Sc.
dom exhibits a desire to bite or modest
anyone.
Mr.. Haines says that hydrophobia IL
not a disease of dogs at all. If dog
were mad the scientific term applied
was "rabies caninis." A person bitten
by a dog thus afflicted might have
hydrophobia or might not. Hydropho-
bia was not q certain result.-N Y.
