CHICAGO, Aug. 22.-The traffic Of
ficials Of the lines between Chicago and
ST. Paul held meeting today to con-
slider the advisabi1ity of meeting the
reductions made by the Lake Michi-
gan Car Ferry company. The great
weight Of opinion in the meeting was
in favor Of letting the ferry company
cut rates as 1t liked. The reduction of
40 cents on first-class freight is more
than the lines can stand, and as the
lake lines can handle only a limited
amount Of freight at best, 1t was pro-
posed that they be allowed to go
ahead and cut the rates as they liked.

We Want No Kings.

Go where will, feel a sound
Like snllen thunder shake the
ground.
And as listen, half in fear.
The sound swells louder aud more
A sound of protest from the throngs
Grown weary from their cruel
wrongs.
Again ! listen; thrilled and stirred
| catch it's purport, word for word
As Ii nd and louder yet it rings
awe want no kings, we want no
kings
The world has grown too wise and
old
For monarchs with their crowns of
gold,
And commerce has too many ports
For nobemen to mince thro' courts.
Humanity has grown too wide
To let us now for queens provide
Too weighty issues are at hand
To maintain princes in the land.
And Thought has grown too bold
and free
To let us longer bend the knee
To any man, unless he fights
For Justice, Truth and common
rights
The rights of labor to it's hire
The rights of toiers to aspire
To something better than befalls
The burdened oxen in their stalls;
The right of all paid slaves to rise
Against all crowned Monopolies
That rob the tllers of the soil
OF honest proceeds of honest toll!
That steal the poor mans -four and
sack
And grind him, till he buys them
At twice their value. Down, we
say,
With these false kings who rule
to-day.
With Freedom voice the welkin
rings,

A Puzxling Case.

Listen while we tell a story
A laborer, while cleaning out
we'll for a poor invalid, Neigh,
boz A, as a matter of friendly
charity, found silver dollar al
the bottom. He was told to
keep the dollar as a reward foi
his services. He did so and
soon handed it to Groceryman
B, whom he owed. The gro
ceryman paid out the dollar to
Farmer c. The farmer turned
the coin over to d, who transfer
red it to f. f paid it to +, + to
c., and so on. Each time the
dollar was transferred it paid a
dollars indebtedness. 1t went
the neighborhood rounds, as
money sometimes does, until at
last it was returned to the well
cleaner in payment on an old
debt.
After 1t had been in his pos
session a short time he discover
ed the coin to be counterfeit, so
he threw it in the fire, where it
was melted into an ingot.
Ouery:-Were the 90 or more
dollar debts really paid or not ?
If not, why not ?
If a genuine dollar were start
ed on the rounds to make good
the payments which the counter
felt wasIsupposed to make, would
the result be different in any
way whatever If so, how?
Olive forgot to mention
that, although the dollar was
counterfeit, it was of coin silver,
full weight. Now solve the
problem.
Were the debts all half paid
by the counterfeit, seeing that
the silver in it was worth so
cents? If not, why nott
If the debts were half paid !
by the counterfeit, how can a
genuine coin, of the same weight
and purity as the counterfeit,
but with a legal stamp on it,
pay all the debts? Does the
metal do only one-half? If so,
what does the rest?
If the metal in a genuine sill
YER dollar does all the paying,
why does not the same amount
IF coin silver in a counterfeit
answer the same purpose?
Can you maintain the position
that fiat cuts no figure in the
case?-Nevada Director.
