Are Some of the Stories About the Industries
Started Since Election.
Chillicothe, O., Nov, 12-Howp political
statistics of the resumption of business
are manufactured is shown by dis
patch purporting to be from this city,
published in the New York World on
Sunday in an article headed "Unparal-
leled Resumption of Business in -Four
Days" Among the dispatches is one
dated "Chillicothe, Ohio" and in it
was given list of industries said to
have opened up and increased their
force since the election. Intit were
the following
Business. Men.
Marion Wagon Works Co......... 200
National Tin Plate Co, ,s.......... 100
American Wire Nail Co.., ,...,... 400
Columbia Encaustic Tile Co. o....... 30
OF these four only the Marion Wa
gon Works exists, and it employs
about 40 men, No new Industries have
opened here since the election none
were shut down before it. The shops
of the B. and o. s. w Railway cut
their force and working hours three OF
four months before election, and began
increasing the force and lengthening
the time just after it, which they might
have done sooner.
In the same article in the World is
given the little village of Anderson, il
Ross county, Ohio, which boasts one
grain elevator and blacksmith shop
The World, however, credits it will
the "Arcade Tile Company" and the
Anderson Iron and Bolt Company,
the two employing t5O men, and open
ed since election. The blacksmith shol
has been magnified into bolt work
and the proprietor and his boy hay
grown to be 100 men--on paper.

THREE BOSSES NOT WANTED.

L tAANA1 0SS0SA @'S "
There Is no doubt that the Quay
Platt- Clarkson faction will do all
in their power to force combina-
tion of all the candidates against
Mckinley. They should fail. Nc
Kinley is the choice Of the great
body of the American voters, as
is apparent to any one who reads
the reports of the conventions
that are being held. 1t is solely
due to Clarkson that matters in
Texas are in the condition that
they are, for he has bound the
leader of the Allison party to him
with hooks Of steel in making him
the biggest republican leader and
pie receiver in the state. What
Allison wants in Texas is not
known, but what Clarkson wants
is easily seen. 1t is very doubtful
il Mr.. Allison would sanction
the methods that are made to
split every congressional conven-
ton wide open in order to place in
st. Louis at disadvantage the
states which favor Mckinley. The
plain purpose Of it all is to send
contesting delegations to the ma
tional convention in order that the
Mckinley delegates will be shut
out Of the temporary organization1
This will throw the com mittee on
credentials into the hands Of the |
McKinleyitesiand so strength
en- their hands in every way. There
is,no pretense that the Mckinley |
delegates from this state will not
be recognized in the end, but it
will be an immense gain for his
enemies IL his friends can be shut
out Of the temporary organiza-
ton. This is the game that is be-
ing played all over the country. 1t
was first played in the interest of
Reed, until it killed his chances
and the game was up. 1t is now
being played in the interests of
and Morton. What is to
be the outcome is not apparent.
The people are not so ready to sub
NIT to the dictation of corrupt
bosses as they were, and there is a
strong sentiment all over the coun
try that it is the wisdom of the
party to turn down
such combination as is being
worked by the Iowa boss in con-
nection with Platt and Quay. The
orders Of Clarkson are impera-
tive as to Texas, and he has
found in the man whom he insist
ed on Harrison's appointing to the
highest office, in the federal gift
within this state, willing instru-
menu OF MS attempt to force the
people to accept his dictum. These
three men threaten the liberty Of
the republican party, because they
threaten its free choice at st. Louis,
and anything that does this strikes
a vital blow at the life of the party.
1t is not upon the selection Of
or any other candidate,
that the LIGHT has set its heart,
but upon fair play and honest &C
ton, both before and in the con-
vention, such as will insure that
the nomination be the real choice
of the majority of the people as ex-
pressed in their delegations.

An Evil Thing.

There is an "evil thing" in San
Antonio, which should be abated
by arraying pnblic opinion against
IL. l do not pretend to speak of
my personal knowledge Of this
evil, but 1 have been informed by
perfectly credible persons, that a
parcel of young dudes, with tooth
pick toes to their shoes and nice
little canes to twirl, who plume
themselves on being "mashers,"
lady killers and the "glass Of
fashion and the mould of FORM"
are addicted to the ungentlemanly
habit Of collecting at the corners
of several prominent and much
frequented streets of San Antonio,
and making vulgar remarks about
every woman who happens to pass,
whether she be a stranger or not.
Such fellows may be full-blown
dudes, but for all that they are des-
titute of the fundamental prin.
ciple and the browning ornament
OF the gentleman-a chivalrous
and profound respect for woman,
whether clothed in silks and satins,
or in rags and tatters. These
dudish fellows pay their mothers
a poor compliment by max
ing vulgar remarks about the
women who pass by them. "The
receiver of stolen goods, knowing
them to be stolen is as bad as the
thief" and on the same principle
those who laugh at and applaud
the vulgar remarks uttered about
women who chance to pass, are as
bad as those who uttered them. No
man who is gentleman will toler-
ate, much less applaud, the utter
ance of vulgar or obscene re.
marks about women passing along
the street, where these maskers
and dudes congregate, to stare
modest women out of countenance
as they pass, and then to make
vulgar remarks about them. These
peacock-dudes need a sound cudgel-
ing every time that they make a
vulgar remark about a woman
passing along the street. How
would the dudish and vain "smart
alexis" and Washers like to over
hear vulgar remark about their
mothers or sisters, who happened
to be passing along the street? A
man without chivalrous respect
for women in general deserves
but scorn and contempt,
and to be hooted out of decent
society.
En- PEASANT, it would be highly
proper for the mayor and the coun-
ell to make it mandatory on the
police to prevent men from block
ing up the streets and impeding
travel, by lining on the curbstones
and against the walks of the houses,
at street corners and along the
side walks. 1t is these Washers
and lady killers, with tooth pick
toes to their shoes, loud colored
neckties, embryonic moustaches
and dainty caues, who stare i'm
pudently and leeringly at the
women who pass and then make
vulgar remarks concerning their
dress, form and carriage, When
ever a man feels no respect for the
female sex, he feels no respect for
his own mother. A mans mother
ought to be the beau ideal of a
son, and his respect and idolatry
of his mother should inspire him
with respect for the female sex.
