Town Wreckins by q Trust.
Denver Post

bCuVcE IOot
Years ago the town of Hartford, in
Indiana, subscribed $25, 600 toward the
erection of tinplate plant, which has
since given employment to over 200
workmen and become the chief indus.
try of the place. Then came the tin
plate trust, and the Hartford plant
with others in the State was absorbed.
This, however, did not interfere with
the work and everything went along
satisfactorily until the other day,
when orders came from headquarters
to shut down the plant. This has de-
prived the 200 workmen OF means to
obtain living in Hartford. As the
plant is to be dismantled by the trust,
the employees and their families are
thrown on the street, while the busi-
ness houses that have thriven, through
the factory, must eventually close.
But there is the $25, 900 the people
OF Hartford invested in the plant.
They are asking themselves now what
has become of their investment. The
trust has rot vouchsafed them any
answer, and they are about ready to
invoke the aid of the courts. Hart.
ford is not only out the money con-
tributed toward the erection of the
plant, but is about to lose material
part of its population and prosperity
on account of the action of the trust.
The people OF Hartford are the losers
of their subscription and the men
there are out OF job. while their FAM
lilies may starve. As the tinplate
trust is one the most favored by the
system of tariff protection those in
Hartford who have all along supported
that system by their votes may now
contemplate the results.

AS THE DEVIL WOULD Run 1T.

Ex-Governor st. John, OF Kansas,
was asked to give his opinion as to
how the Devil would run a newspaper,
by the Atchison Champion. Follow
ing is his reply:
l have received yours OF the Goth
ult., asking me to give my opinion as
to "How the Devil would run pa
per-" and in reply thereto, desire
first to congratulate you on your ex-
cellent judgment In selecting me to
answer that question, for my familiar
ity with his Satanic Majesty enables
me to impart to you a lot of informa-
ton that the ordinary pious man
knows little about.
The first thing the Devil would do
would be to write salutatory. He
would give it An intense religious tone.
He would shout for "Old Glory" and
scream for liberty, and pitch into the
Mormons, but would not say a word
about the thousands OF slaves, and our
government-salarie Sultan and his
seventeen wives, under the protection
OF the American flag On the island OF
Sulu. He would openly favor bimet-
allism and secretly work to pull the
government on single gold standard
basis. He would denounce fraud and
send word to the cauners of rotten
beef to clean up and get ready to be
whitewashed. He would stand quietly
by. and without even u protest, see
the organized trusts rob the people of
hundreds of millions annually, and
call it prosperity. He would advocate
the levying OF a high protective tariff
on the poor mans food and clothing
and tell him it was protection. He
would make his columns speak in
thunder tones in favor of sending our
soldiers 5000 miles from home to
shoot our civilization and Milwaukee
beer into the Filipinos. In a desper-
ate frenzied effort of powerful mon.
archy, which has been a robber and
oppressor of weaker nations, to crush
by brute force brave people in South
Africa, who are struggling, as our fore
fathers struggled four generations ago,
for the right of self government, the
Devil would be ON the side OF mon
archy, and gloat over the downfall OF
the republic. He would take the posi-.
ton in his paper that, by the Provi'
dence of God, Porto Rico was the prop
erty of the United States, that her
people were our people, and that by
this same Divine providence, and by
cry OF benevolent assimilation" to
impress upon the Porto Ricans the
lesson that whomsoever the Lord
loveth He chasteneth," he would put
u 10 per cent. tariff on the product OF
their labor. He would stand for Nc.
Kinley and bitterly denounce Bryan
and finally, His Satanic Majesty would
make will, in which he would pro-
vide that, in case OF his death or re-
moval from the United States, his
newspaper should be turned over to

Had our lunch while under weigh,
which consisted OF rye bread and but

Speaking of the limburger, Rem

Destruction OF the Buffalo.
Epitomast.

The destruction Of the buffalo has
recently deem denounced by writer
as "the crime of the century," and it
was. Between the spirit of greed and
that OF brutal pleasure, and with saw
agery and civilization competing in
the ghastly work, millions of these an
imals were sacrificed to comparative
meaningless slaughter. The record is
almost incredible and is an indelible
shadow upon the nobility Of human
ity. The Indians went out to hunt in
armies, and in one instance $50 saw
ages killed Alto buffaloes. In
twenty years the half-breeds of the Red
river slaughtered 652,275, and the
white man has to his credit even lar
ger figures, until of all the millions of
buffsloes that were in this country, at
the last census there were only 256
pure-bloOded buffaloes, and they were
in captivity. These millions of beasts
were killed by arrows, guns and by be-
ing run down or run over precipices.
A few years ago along the line of the
Northern Central Railroad could be
seen immense piles of bones which the
Indians had gathered. They were the
bones OF buffaloes which had been
killed for pleasure or their hides. and
the carcass had been left to rot on the
plains. The government was appealed
to to forbid the slaughter but failed to
act, and the horrible history is some
thing of evidence of the truth OF the
Frenchman's remark that "when the
American wants to enjoy himself he
says, Let us shoot something

Straight Edge" Impossible.
Yout his Companion.

One OF the difficult problems in
practical mechanics is to make a
" straight edge" How difficult it is
may be judged from an incident
which occurred in the shops of J. A.
Brashear, the astronomical instrument
maker. A customer asked Mr.. Brash-
ear what would be the price of "a
perfect straight edge of glass thirty
six inches long" at can't be made
absolutely perfect, said Mr.. Brashear,
"but it could probably be made with
a limit OF error amounting to only a
fraction of a wave length of light"
How much would that cost?" about
$4,000" 1t turned out that the
customer wanted the straight edge for
scraper, and that an error OF one
sixty-fourth of an inch would have
been insensible for his purpose.

Pharohs. 1t was Gods own race for
1000 years, and the awful persecution
it has survived for 1900 more, stamps
it as race still bearing some mystic

women command my homage and
among wealthy and educated Jews the
exquisite refinements of Jewesses, their
culture and high breeding, blended with
sort of Oriental grace and dignity,

Did you never see stone weighing
twenty pounds concealed in bale of
cotton sold by southerner? Did you
never find lard in the butter sold by
New England Puritan? The belief that
the Jew is more dishonest than the
Gentle is one half nonsense and the
other half prejudice and falsehood. The
anti-Jewish feeling which now seems to

ment for high crimes and m1sde-
meanors, and attempted to prove
an alibi. His father tried him,
convicted him for doging the truth
one day, and turned to him with a
frown and said: INV son. don T.
you go to Sunday school? Eyes
sir. " Don't you study the bible
there?' Eyes sir" "Well, can
you tell me what it says about a
