pingree Mont Down.

Pingree is d bully boy with glass
eye. He's the nightmare Of the Rapub-
lican party. They don't know what
| to do with him. He's tho bull in the
| China shop of corporation privileges
A combination forms to raise the price
of asphalt for paving the streets of
Detroit. He slips off to Trinidad or
some other place and brings back q
company ready to furnish asphalt at
one-third OF the price asked by the
trust. 1t grits its teeth and swears,
but can do nothing. The legislature
passes 6 law about the sale of mileage
books at two cents a mile. The Michi-
gan Central refuses to obey it and
says, "What are you going to do about
p" Pingree as a private citizen offers
them money for such ticket and
brings suit because they refuse. and,
unlike most suitors, instead of getting
on his knees, he brings them to theirs.
And now, worst OF ell, he's actually
called the legislature together to RENE
.dy the inequality of taxation, and he
says:
Gin violation of the spirit if not the
letter of these provisions of the conGti.
tuition, laws have been passed from
time to time by which railroad compa-
MES, express companies, telegraph and
telephone companies, now owning ac-
cording to their sworn returns, as least
one third Of the property of this state,
arc required to pay only about one
twenty-sixth of the taxes levied for
state, county, end municipal purposes,
leaving their just proportion Of public
expenses to fall upon the formers, L.
borers and manufacturers and other
property owners Of the state"
Now this is rank confscation. It's
opposition to special privileges and
every one knows our civilization is
built upon special privileges. The Re-
publican machine has tried to down
him, but he's bigger than the machine,
lie don't talk much, but he acts. It's
well to keep your eye on Pingree. He's
lad, bad man and the people love
him. Pcmeroy.

A NEGRO GHWAYMAN
Assaults Miss Knapp Near Institute
for the BSind.

Miss A. Knapp, young woman residing
at No. 112 East Vermont street, was vicious
ly attacked by a negro about o'clock last
night, while walking on Pennsylvania
street near the Institute for the Blind. The
negro's evident purpose was robbery, but
he was foiled in the attempt.
1t was a hat that undoubtedly saved Miss
Knapp a terrible injury. She had been in
the north part of the city and was walking
slowly homeward with her purse in her
hand when she was attacked. The negro
had secreted himself behind a gate opening
into the yard of the Institute for the Blind,
and as Miss Knapp passed he leaped out
The young woman thinks he carried a large
club from the effects of the blow that was
intended for her head He brought the club
down with crushing effect, but it was the
hat that suffered most. Miss Knapp was
only slightly dazed and began to scream for
help Her cries were heard a block away
and the negro ran without attempting to
snatch the pocketbook., The blow knocked
Miss knapp's hat from her head, and for
an instant she was too dazed to know Just
which way to turn Then she started for
Potter's drug store, at the corner of Penn
sylvania and North streets She arrived
there very weak from fright, but, much to
the surprise of a half-1ozen men, declined
to swoon. The hat was a sad piece of
wreckage. 1t was a ruined mass of feath-
ers frills and ribbons.
Detectives Dugan and Asche presented
themselves at the drug store shortly after
the assault and started out at once on
search for the highwaymen. Miss Knapp
reSolutely made her way home alone. She
was unable to give a clear description of
the negro, as he did not wait long enough
after she screamed for her to get a good
view of him.
