No Boss Rules this Governor.

Governor Pingree, of Michigan, is a
unique character in public life. lie is &c
centric enough to find out what is good
for the people and then to strive to get it
have no terrors for him. He actually
takes delight in winning his political
battles without tneir assistance.
When he became Mayor OF Detroit ho
turned over the vacant lots of the city to
the poor that they might raise vegetables
to help support themselves. His enemies
denounced him as a demagogue.
He forced the street railway companies
to reduce their fares to three cents, cut
gas rates in half, aud made the tax-dodg-
ing wealthy concerns of Detroit pay
twice as much AS formerly. His capital
istic opponents proclaimed him an anar-
chist.
But Pingree kept right on. He was
elected Mayor four times, when the voters
of the State asserted claim upon him
anu maze MN uOVefnDT.
Through his influence the Legislature
recently passed a bill authorizing the city
of Detroit to buy and operate the street
railways. On Saturday the City Council
approved the law, and appointed com
mission, with Governor Pingree at the
head, to purchase and operate the roads.
Although Republican, he has con
demned his party for its support of trusts.
He is hearty hater of shams. He lives
up to the pledges of his platform. Hc re-
deems his ante-election promises. Gov
ernor Pingree is in every respect great
executive, and if public officials generally
had his honesty, courage and ability, the
country would be fortunate indeed.N. y.

NEARLY $4,000 DAMAGE.
Fire in Boston Throws 100 Cigar Makers
Out OF Work

Boston. July 6.-Firc in the 6-story
brick building e. to % Sudbury street
and / to 8 Hawkins street, shortly after
O'Clock, this morning, burned the
three upper floors and caused damage
to the other parts of the structure
which will bring the loss up to between
$4,000 and $4,000.
The blaze started in the basement on
the Hawkins street side near the ele-
vator well. and shooting up the shaft
spread through the third floor before
the fire department could answer the
first alarm.
Owing to the inflammable condition
of the contents of the various factories
three alarms were sounded and nearly
the entire city department was at the
scene. During a hard fight the fire
men succeeded in combining the fire to
the building in which it started. the
interior of which was practically de-
stroyed.
The heaviest losers are H. Traiser &
Co. cigar manufacturers, who occu-
pied the two upper floors of the build
ing as work rooms and a store house.
Mr.. Traiser says his loss will be entire
About 100 cigar makers will be thrown
out of employment for time.
The fourth floor was occupied by the
Boston Musical Instrument Manufac-
tory. This concert also practically lost
everything. J. y. feeling, dealer in
signs and show cases, and the Phillips
Machine Co, used the third floor, on
which the flames most fiercely ragged.
The second floor was vacant. The
basement was occupied by Moore &
Rushton, plasterers. The loss to those
on the street floor and the basement
was mainly from water. The building
is owned by Arioch Wentworth of this
city, and is fully insured. Traiser's
insurance, $500; Boston Musical In
strument Co., $13,500.
