ABBAs H., THE KHEDIvE.
Some Facts About the Young MoA-
arch Whom England Does
Not Like.

Abbas II. seems bent upon making
himself impossible, and in the event of
his deposition becoming necessary the
readiest substitute would appear to be
his younger brother, who from child
hood upward was always the brighter
and more amiable boy of the two. But
there is an alternative worth considera-
tion, and that is the restoration of the
old Mussulman succession vested in the
elder branch of the family. This was
set aside in 1866 by Sultan Abdul Aziz,
who was bribed by Viceroy Ismail TO
alter the succession to his direct line.
1t was then that he received from his
suzerain the kigh-sounding Persian
title of khedive. By this arbitrary act
Prince Hahn, the only surviving son
of Mehemet Ali, was excluded from the
succession in favor of Ismail's SON, Tew-
fix. Halim, the most liberal and en-
hghtened member of the family, is
now dead, but his children remain.
The eldest son, Prince Said, who has
received careful European education,
would be persona grata to the Egyp-
tian people, both as the grandson Of
Mehemet Ali and as representing re-
turn to the Koranic law of succession.
The present khedive is the seventh
ruler of Egypt in the line of Mehemet
Ali, and the second Abbas. The name
is sinister one in the Egyptian dy-
asty. The first Abbas, who succeeded
Ibrahim in 1S49, had brief reign. but
long enough to make his memory ex-
ecrated. Cowardly and cruel, addicted
to the most repugnant form of vice,
he was assassinated by his own crea-
lures in 1854 at Abbasiyeh, in the pal
ace whose gaunt remains still line the
road.
His name became by-word In Egypt,
and the members Of the vice regal fam
fly have always discreetly consigned
him to oblivion as much as possible
| He did. not reside at the Cairo citadel
like his predecessors, Mehemet All and
| Ibrahim, but built himself . rambling
palace in the heart Of the town, a con
spicuous feature Of which is q lofty
| tower, which he used for his hobby oi

8. We pledge ourselves, if elected
to submit to and abide by the ex-
pressed will of a majority of the
voters of the town on any and all
questions which may be submitted
to them during the term for which
we may be elected, thereby con-
sidering ourselves servants of the
people of Alton.
10. We further pledge ourselves
to disburse the funds of the city in
manner which will retain the
credit of the city and keep it on a
substantial basis.
IL. We pledge ourselves that an
authenticated statement of the re-
ceipts and expenditures of the rev.
enues of the town. as now required
by law, shall be published at the
expiration of each quarter, in the
town papers, and that the--books
of the corporation shall be open at
al times to the inspection of the
voters of the town.
IL. 1t shall be our aim, if elect
ed, to foster and encourage all le-
gitimate enterprises in our town.
Is. We pledge ourselves to the
maintenance of law and order in
the town.
IA. We pledge ourselves if elect
ed, to perform the duties incum-
bent upon US as officers of the
town, absolutely free from the die
talion of any self-constituted boss,
click or clan.
10, We believe that the best in
terests of community are sub.
served by the united and harmo-
nious action of all its people, and
therefore all pledge ourselves to
use all honorable means to allay
strife and contention among our
citizens.
16. If elected we propose to
place upon saloons, gaming tables
and other immoral resorts license
SO high that parties wishing to run
the same will realize that their
room will be the better company.

PLATFORM AND
THE NOMINEES
Of the Peoples Ticket, at At.
ton, Ind. Ter.

Aldermen, Fred Langley, j. w.
Allison, W. J. Melton, David Mer-
edith and ]. I. Hukill.
The platform to which these
gentlemen have subscribed and in
vite cooperation to place into ef-
lect if elected, is as follows:
1. We believe that economy is
Just as essential to the successful
management of the affairs of mu-
nicipality as it is to any business
enterprise; and therefore, we favor
rigid economy in the expenditure
Of the funds Of the town.
2. Realizing the fact that every
community has within its bounds
many poor children who are not
able to pay tuition and attend
school, and obtain the foundation
of an education without the liberal
assistance of those more fortunate
in the accumulation of property;
and fully recognizing the value of
an education in this progressive
age, we heartily indorse the senti-
ments of our most eminent states
men and educators who contend
that the chief btlwark of Ameri-
can patriotism and liberty is fos-
tered in the free school system Of
her various states; where the prin-
ciples upon which this, the great
est government on earth, is found
ed arc taught to the poor and rich
alike, without regard TO class or
position, thereby elevating the
standard of American citizenship
above that of all nations; there
FORE, we pledge ourselves to do all
in our power, at the earliest possi-
Bile moment, to firmly establish
the free school system in Alton.
And 20 this end we are in favor of
levying and collecting an advalo-
rem tax upon the personal proper
ty Of the town for the maintenance
of the same.
8. We are in favor of the lot
owners of Alton obtaining title to
lots at the least possible cost, and
pledge our influence to this end.
4, We are unalterably opposed
to both privilege and occupation
taxes, as we regard such taxation
as being class legislation and,
therefore, not in harmony with our
sense of right and justice; but for
the purpose Of raising the necessa-
nv revenues to defray the expenses
of the town government, we be-
lieve in a reasonable property tax
upon the personal property of the
town. which viii bear equally up
on the well.to-do and the poor.
5. We believe in taxing hawk
ers, peddlers, hucksters, shows
and patent or other medicine ven-
ders; and other transitory persons
with the character of the
business.
6. We pledge ourselves,if elected
to appoint to the various munich
pal offices Of the town none but
men of integrity and sobriety, and
who are otherwise well qualified
to fill the Offices.
Z. For the purpose of working
the streets, for putting down side
walks, where they are badly need
ed, and for repairing bridges and
building new ones, when 1t is
thought convenient for the accom-
mediation of our people, We are in
favor Of levying and collecting a
small tax upon the personal prop
erty of the town, to the end that
We will have clean, neat, healthy
and inviting little city.

Chairman of Commit
Famine IN Russia

London, June 15.-While famine
Is now threatening the southern
provences of Russia, the CORES
pondent of the Times at st. Peters
burg writes that the condition of
the seven proveAees of East Euro
pean Russia is worse than during
the famine of 1891 and 1892.
Quite half a population of
eleven million" he says, are un-
dergoing terrible sufferings, star
walton and disease; and the au-
thorities everywhere appear incap-
able and unprepared to deal with
the calamity.
Money is squandered in absurd
ly high pay to relief agents, and,
owing to the high prices which
the government charges for seed
corn, no encouragement is given
the peasants to till the ground.
1t is unnecessary to quote the
borrowing details received from
the relief agents. This could add
nothing to the stern significance of
the statement made by Russian
of authority in one district in the
government of Kazzam that one
child born there this year is now
alive. "

As THE Dawes commission gets
nearer the beginning of the per
manent allotment Of lands to the
citizens of the Chickasaw and
Choctaw nations, the enOrmity of
their work becomes more apparent.
The plan Of allotment adopted by
the commission, as told us by those
in a position to know, will con-
sumo three OF four years time be-
fore the allotment begins. Sur
veyors will be put in the field to
locate and grade each quarter sec
ton of land in both nations, divid-
ing the land with reference to
value into ten different classes or
grades. Each quarter section will
then be appraised by board ap-
pointed for that purpose and each
Indian will be allowed land valued
at his pro rata Of the value of the
lands of the whole tribe and the
number of acres he receives will
depend altogether upon the grade
and location of the lands.

SECRETARY of State Hardy has
begun to draw the line on cor
porations seeking to set up shop
in Texas under foreign charters.
Acting upon the advice of the At
torney General, he refused to file
articles of incorporation of an as
sociation which went to New
Jersey for a charter to engage in
the business of furnishing public
utilities to the citizens of Sherman.
And in doing this he establishes a
precedent that will hereafter be
followed by his department. The
Attorney General is of the opinion
that no corporation which goes
outside of the state for a charter to
do business in the state should be
admitted to the state, and is pre-
pared to join in issues in the
courts in this matter, and from
this time on the Secretary of State
will act accordingly. In this con-
nection, it is in order to state that
one of the questions to be brought
up during the antitrust conven-
ton called by Governor Sayers
will be that of New Jersey charters
and that it will be proposed that
an agreement be entered into be-
tween the states represented at
said convention to refuse admission
to all corporations operating I'M
der articles of incorporation OBJ
tanned in New Jersey, or in any
other state, which, like this, makes
a practice of granting franchises
to all sorts Of associations without
regard to their purposes or tend
encies. 1t is further understood
also that a movement is being in
augurated to put the Democracy
of Texas on record as being OPP
posed to the granting of charters
to none but quasi-public corpora
tions, and that an effort will be
made at the next state convention
to pledge the party to a repeal of
the private corporation act. This
is considered the most effective
way of fighting trusts, it being
argued that without corporate
powers the promoters thereof would
not think OF organizing them, and
it is hoped to start a general move
ment against the granting of char
ters tor any and all purposes by
starting off in that direction in
Texas.
