made the w. C. T. U. women stronger
Mrs. M. A. Warner also spoke. If
churches would do more aggressive
temperance work there would be no
necessity for temperance societies and
there would be more sympathy be-
tween the churches and temperance
women.
In the evening the musical part Of
the programme was furnished by Miss
Hare, who sang two very pretty solos.
Rev. John Pringle, pastor of the Good
rich Avenue church, gave very in
teresting talk about the union. He
spoke Of the unions in Canada and
said that although the work there was
more forward than in the United
States, 1t should offer no discourage
ment to local workers, for the work in
this country was progressing mora the
present year than ever before.

MAY FURNISH A SURPRISE.
Grand Jury Expected TO Report This
Afternoon

hAtcfnOOns
1t was still rumored that the grand
jury has voted to indict three promi-
nent citizens whose names have not
hitherto been mentioned in the same
breath with the words grand jury"
That body convened at 2:15 p. M yes
terday and remained in session until
o'lcock. Only two witnesses were
called in, Bank Examiner M A. Ken
yon and Assistant Bank Examiner
Oscar Lonegren. The latter was
closeted with the grand jury for an
hour or more. Mr.. Kenyon was in tha
room for only ten or fifteen minutes
AS on the previous day, the grand
jury managed to get along most Of the
time without the services of the county
attorney. At Ais p. M, after Mr..
Lonegren had gone out the grand jury
sent for Assistant County Attorney
Aollmann, who was trying a county
civil case before Judge Lewis. Mr.
Zollman responded and conferred with
the grand jury for about twenty min
utes. Everybody about the court room
confidently expected that a report
would be forthcoming, but everybody
was disappointed for there was none.
There is good reason to believe how
ever, that the grand jury will report
shortly after 2:15 p. m today to which
hour it adjourned. The rumor is also
gaining ground that when the indict-
ments are announced. they will sur
prise the public. It is also reported
that todays proceedings will prac-
tically wind up the work Of the grand
jury.
William F. Bickel. whose arraign-
ment on the last indictment, charging
him with an overdraft Of $1,000 from
the Minnesota Savings Bank was
postponed Tuesday owing to the alb
sence of Uri Lamprey, one Of his
bondsmen, appeared before Judge
Lewis yesterday and gave bail in the
sum Of $1,500, with Patrick Conley and
Uri Lamprey as the sureties. The
usual motion to quash the Indictment
was entered.

To put tariff on tea would be to follow
the idea Of the free traders that the tariff
should be levied for revenue only and upon
such articles as would produce the most
revenue-articles, of course, that are not pro-
duced in this country. Under these circum-
stances the tariff is q tax.-Aberdeen Is. D.
News. -.
1t is Iacerating to such faithful souls
to have their party compelled to levy tax
where the whole of it will go into the treas
ury, and to have to admit that a tariff is a
tax. But my dear, fellow, you have got to
come to it and you might as we'll make up
your face to appear pleasant. It may enlight-
en- you so that you will realize that tariff
is always tax.

A very curious and interesting part
of the analysis of prices made by Brad
streets is the grouping Of articles
whose pound units had the same mar
ket value on May 1. 1t will be a mat
ter of surprise to our farmers to learn
that one pound Of milk, wheat or peas
had the same market price as one
pound Of nails, paper or alum, 16 cents.
A pound Of dressed hog, Of eggs, or
mess pork had the same price as a
pound of sugar, rice or borax at 5 cents.
Probaly none Of these articles with
equal prices will present so strikingly
the modern tendency Of reduction in
prices. where natural processes oper-
ate to determine them, as Is the equiva-
lence Of price gof pound of steel rails
and pound Of hay the rail price be-
ing that Of Pfttsburg, and the hay
price being that of New York, each be-
ing 8 of a cent a pound. When one.
contemplates the, difference in the
methods ands cost of production of
these two articles, and makes al

are quoted at their place Of manufac-
terminal market. 1t is astonishing that
pound of steel rails can be produced
and sold at a price equal to that Of a
pound of hay. Other singular pound
price equivalents are tea, hemlock
hides and wool at 20 cents: mutton,
coffee. horses, cotton and hops at s
cents; corn, potatoes, 'raisins, Bessemer

The dandelion Is. a. bright flower, of rapid

It should have been adopted as the state
flower instead Of the moccasin. It is the most
typical of American character of ali our fiow-
ers. It is UP early and down Late; 1t comes
with the pioneer, shares his hardships. and
stays to share the comforts of the opulence Of

who, in the absence of Senator Aldrich,
has charge of the tariff bill, expressed
the opinion to-day that the sugar
schedule would be reached In its order
on Monday, and that 1t would be taken
up then If Senator Aldrich by that time
should have so far recovered as to be
able to take charge of the schedule on
behalf OF the republicans. If Mr.. Aid
rich finds 1t impossible to be in the
chamber when the schedule is reached
the republicans will ask that it be pass
ed temporarily because of his generally
conceded superior information on the
subject. Senator Allison says, how
ever that 1t is his desire that the
schedule should be disposed of as
promptly as possible.
There is a possibility that the tobac-
co schedule may be also passed over in
case Senator Aldrich is not able to be
present when it is reached in it's regu-
lar order.

R0xBUkY CARPENTERS STRIKE.
Contractors Refused a Demand for al
Eighth Hour Day.

Boston, June 4.-One hundred and
fifty carpenters employed in Roxbury
by Contractors Habotoff and Lavine,
by order of Carpenters union No. Sc,
struck to-day. Recently the Hebrew
painters demanded that their employ
ers should grant them an eight-hour
day and $3.50 per day.
Nearly all of the Hebrew contractors
acceded to the demand. Contractors
Habotoff and Lavine refused to COM
ply, hence the strike was ordered. 1t
is probable that more men will become
involved, as all of the other tradesmen
employed on the Roxbury work are
willing to assist the strikers, and If
the contractors put non-union men to
work the other employees will refuse to
work.
