A DebauChed Press.

One of the forces and factors in opera
tion, and which has contributed its full
measure Of influence in bringing about
the present Generalization in political,
financial and industrial affairs is, con-
fessedly, a debauched and venal capital.
istio press.
The press, whether partisan or calling
itself independent" in its indecent,
violent and yilifying expressions knows
neither boundary nor restraint, as for
instance, the Indianapolis Nes0S, whose
political breath resembles that of the
GilR monster, referring to Illinois Dem
ocratic convention, says "Two States,
Illinois and Wisconsin, yesterday made
their appeal to the country on political
issues through the Democratic party. In
the former state Altgeld, the anarchist
Governor, was renominsted by acclams-
tion." To refer to Governor Altgeld as
an anarchist" is the extreme of vitu-
peratiVe malice-false and slanderous
beyond compare. 1t is an exhibition Of
fOul-mOuthed, capitalistic journalism
which seeks by steady stream of vul-
gar lying to strike down every man who
has the courage to stem the current of
capitalistic Generalization now sweep
ing over the country.
The term anarchist" is accepted as
one Of extreme opprobrium and infa-
mously offensive. 1t is applied 10 men
who discard all law, human and divine;
murderers Of the basest type, assassins,
dagger-hsnded, ready to kill in secret
those who advocate the supremacy Of
the law; and yet the Indianapolis Nea0S,
first, last and all the time capitalistic
sheet, refers to Governor Altgsld, the
justly renowned Governor of Illinois,
always the champion Of law and justice,
as an anarchist, and if an anarchist,
having in the great State Of Illinois a
following that shows several hundred
thousand men, American citizens, to be
devoted friends of an anarchist, and
ready to inaugurate chaos is one Of the
greatest States in the American republic.
We refer to the subject simply to show
that the debauched and malicious
capitalistic press does not hesitate to
print and SOW broadcast over the land
in The interest of the money power the
vilest ISLANDERS Of which English language
is capable Of expressing against courage
GUS and patriotic men who dare cham
pion the cause of the people and seek
to overthrow the schemes Of American
plutocracy.-RGtI,0Gy Times.

THIS SHIP FLIES.
An Aerial Craft Invented by a. Cali
fOrnia Man.

The dispatches from. San Francisco
Sunday contain among otner things the
following description of the flying of a
new hlgh-hyer, invented by Califor-
nian. 1t seems plausible enough, but it
seems to US, as we have read something
of that kind somewhere before, that
| turned out to be not the whole and un-
adulterated truth. On this account we
| will not vouch for the story below:
s'The mystery of the airship which
has been puzzling some worthy citizens
of Sacramento for several days past has
made change of base, and now there
are plenty of reputable people in and
about San Francisco ready to make oath
that they have seen the strange thing in
the heavens. More than that, there is a
San Francisco attorney, George D. Col
Inns, who asserts that the airship exists :;
that the inventor is his client; that the
strange craft sailed without mishap
from Oroville to San francisco; that it
did pass over Sacramento, and that
within few days this invention, which
is> the solution of one of the worlds old
est and toughest problems, will be nav1-
gated in daylight, so that all San Fran
cisco may see it, and that it will circle
and rise and sink over the central part
OF the city. Collins said tonight:
"'It is perfectly true that there is at
last successful airship in existence,
and that California will have the honor
OF bringing it before the world. The in
ventor is wealthy man, who has been
studying the subject of flying machines
for fifteen years, and who came here
seven years ago from the state of Maine
In order to be able to perfect his ideas
away from the eyes of other inventors.
During the last five years he has spent
at least 100000 on his work. He has
not yet secured his patent, but is appli-
cation is now in Washington. I cannot
say much about the machine he has per-
fected, as he is my client.
I saw the machine one night last
week at the inventors invitation. 1t is
made of. metal, is about $50 feet long,
and is built to carry fifteen persons. It
is built on the aeroplane system, and
has two canvaswings eighteen feet wide,
and rudder, shaped like birds tail.
The inventor climbed into the machine,
and after he had been moving some of
the mechanism for a moment, saw the
thing begin to ascend from the earth
very gently. The wing tapped slowly
as 1t rose, and then little faster as it
began to move against the wind. The
machine was under perfect control all
the time.
"'My clients airship started from
Oroville, in Butte county, and flew So
miles in straight line, directly over
Sacramento. After running up and
down once or twice over the capitol, my
friend came right On, distance of an
other 20 miles, and landed at shop on
this side of the bay, where the machine
now lies, guarded by three men. The
inventor found during this trial trip
that his ship had wave-like motion
that made him seasick. 1t is this de-

Spanish Students Concert Company

The entertainment by the famous
Spanish Students and concert company

promises to be most successful, large
number of seats being already sold.
The list of instruments embraces all
those which are now the rage, including
bandurria, guitar, cello, violin, as a
matter of course, and also the most fas-
cinating and rarely heard salterio, by
Senior Marin, the renowned soloist.
For finished and artistic playing. an
ensemble such as is rarely seen in the
largest and best orchestras, the Spanish

feet that he is now remedying.
In another six days it is his 1nten-
tion to give the people chance to see
his machine. He will fly right over the
city and cross Market street dozen
times. The inventor has forsaken the
ideas of Maxim and Langley entirely in
building the machine, and has con-
structed it on an absolutely new theory.

A VALENTINE PARTY.
Some Novel Ideas Tint VIII Prove Enter
tanning.

II you are going to have a valentine
party, here are few hints which may en-
liven the evening: You can go in for dec
orations as deeply as you choose and find
plenty of appropriate symbols that will
suggest the sentiment of the holiday. A
flying Cupid with bandaged eyes may be
suspended from the chandelier.
Roses Of deep red, loves own color, may
be distributed around as freely as you
choose or as your purse will allow. Drape
the mantel with smilaX, caught up with
red ribbons tied in true lovers knots.
Pasteboard hearts pierced by gilt arrows
can be bought or manufactured at home.
and form most attractive decorations. a
pair or two of turtle doves should not be
forgotten, for they add much to the gen.
eral effect
In pairing Off your guests for the even
ing you can manage to have lot of fun.
One method which is sure to put every
one in good humor and break down all the
barriers of formality is as follows:
Hang a sheet In doorway between two
rooms. With charcoal or ink draw a gro
tesque face on one side and cut holes for
eyes. Let the ladies go into the room be-
hind the curtain while the gentlemen re-
main in the other Then lot the ladies'
each stand behind the face on the curtain
and look through the apertures. The men
are then allowed each a chance of guess
Ing who is the owner of the eyes which
are peering through at them. The guess
ers whisper the name to the unknown fair
one, and If it Is right she retires and he
has found his partner for the game of
hearts which follows. If not, the lady
winks' saucily, and he must try his luck
another time. Underneath the face you
may write something like this:
I'm looking at you, love,
With eyes that are true love.
If you guess these eyes are mine,
l will be your Valentine.
Another novel way of mating your
guests is to get as many card valentines
as you have guests. Have them in dupli-
cate pairs and put each In an envelope,
one of pair in an envelope for a gentle
man, the other in one for lady AS the
guests arrive hand each an envelope and
Jet them find the person who has the dupli-
cate
