on the Town.
HE WINDS UP IN JAIL
With a Boon Companion Looking for
Trouble He Assaulted Several
People and Made Merry
With Saloon Fixtures.

Jack Ledford, a bad lands rounder.
went on a rampage yesterday morning
with a boon companion. and after as
saulting two or three people and
smashing up a saloon. landed in the
city Jail with three charges against
him, one Of them the serious one of
mayhem. The companion got away
and i'm the chase came near being
winged by officer McGlynn, who fired a
shot after him.
Ledford was drunk and quarrelsome
when he and his partner entered w. f.
Logan's saloon at Sc East Galena street.
1t took Ledford but a short time to get
into a fight with George Morgan and in
the melee bit a chunk out of Morgan's
cheek. Not content with this. he picked
up a nickel i'm the slot machin and
hurled 1t at Morgan. His aim was poor
and the slot machine took effect in the
glassware and bottles back of the bar
with the result that Logan's sideboar d
presented the appearance OF having
been struck by a cyclone. When the
slot machine failed to hit Ledford's vic
tim, he grabbed up the cigar lighter and
struck Morgan over the head with II,
smashing the lighter.
Fred Stiger, a young man who hap
pened to be i'm the saloon, ran out tn
call an officer, and Ledford, observing
his action, followed him out and as
saulted him. officer McGlynn arrived
about this time and arrested Ledford.
He had his hands SO full with the bel
ligerent thai Ledford's companion. who
had taken part in the rumpus but &c
a lesser extent. got away, and Officer
McGlynn, in trying to capture him
fired a shot which came uncomfortable
close to hitting the mark. 1t did no
stop the fellow, however, and he got
away.
Ledford was taken to the city jail
where he was booked for mayhem foI

Eugene V. Debs.
What sense is there In accumulating
more than one can use? Jay Gould died
because he had too much money. II he
had remained poor he would have been
alive to-day. If he had been poor he
would never have suffered as he did the
fear Of an assassin's knife. His brain
was wrought with perplexing problems,
and life to him was a weary burden, de-
spite his immense fortune. He was
victim Of our competitive system. He
had as much too much as millions have
too little. The present tendency is to do
away with all competition, as the cap
tains of industry realize that cOmpeti-
tion is destructive of business. Mr.. Rock
efeller realized this and set out to tear
down all concerns competing in the oil
business. Now he is the monarch of the
country. He fixes prices and wages,
while the American people are Obliged to
pay the prices he fixes for oil, as his
slaves are Obliged to take the wages he
gives them. Seventy millions Of people
stand by and watch these corporations
slowly secure their grip on the great ma
tional industries.

sold under any trade name which are not

makers, counting no doubt upon the Gre
dence of the public, commenced to apply n

quality from very good down to the cheap
est and most inferior grades and then imi-
tated the shape and style of the Garland

Ors in Garland" posters, initiating the de-
signs Of "Garlands"-with the result that
many unscrupulous stove merchants have
been successful in selling third and fourth
grade limitations of "Garlands" upon the
statement that what they offered were
"iust as good" etc. The courts have closed
the factories of some of the most shame
less of these imitators, enjoiNed others, and
yet there are those who escape the pale OF
the law and continue to dupe the public
whom, we repeat, are themselves to blame
for not insisting upon having Garland

The above is but one of many instances
which might be cited, but 1t Is sufficient to
show that 1t is not only upon small articles
of merchandise upon which consumers can
be deceived but large and important ones

I said: By all means do so; l will have the men sent aft for that purpose and was on the point of do- ing so when it was reported to me that a Spanish battleship was standing to- ward us from the eastward. My first duty to God and my country was to sink this Spanish battleship, and I i'm mediately made preparations to do so. When it was discovered that this ship was an Austrian, I found my ship sur rounded by boats carrying dying and wounded prisoners, and others of the crew of the Vizcaya to the number of two hundred and fifty. To have these men suffer for want of food and clothing while I called my men aft for prayers was not my idea of either Christianity or religion I preferred to clothe the naked, feed the hungry and succor the sick, and I am strongly of the opinion that Almighty God has not put black mark against me on account of it. I do not know whether shall stand with Captain Philip among the first chosen in the hereafter, but I have this to say in conclusion. that every drop of blood in my body on the afternoon of the Sd of July was singing thanks and praises to AL mighty God for the victory we had won"

the city the water has risen above the

of some of the big wholesale dry goods

from backing up, and so far with toler.
able success. Along Mill street the
first floors of half a dozen large manu-.
featuring industries are flooded, and
1900 people will be thrown out OF
work until the water subsidies. The
river in front Of the harbor is covered
with floating ice. If the jam in the
river below the city gives way, all dan

ent there is little hope of this taking
place, and a disastrous overflow is gen
