Pals arguments have come at last,
a they are great ones. He says the
republicans have done more for the
country than the democrats have, but
he forgets to prove it. We admit that
they did noble work in Lincoln's time.
But we have to look at parties as we
find them today. Lincoln sacrificed
millions of dollars and thousands of
lives to liberate the slaves. Mac has
made polygamy and slavery legal in
the U. S. territory and fixed the mar
ket price of slaves freedom at $40.
Pal, set your mental faculties (if you
have any, at work and figure out how
long it will take slaye, working for
nothing, to earn twenty dollars, the
Mckinley valuation of liberty. Lin
coin stood for the people; Mac, for
the corporations. You say Cleve-
lands free trade was harmful. Do
the Democrats favor free trade? Did
we have free trade under Cleveland's
administration? Oh, Pal! soak your
so.called head in water till it will
take an impression, and then study
some political history, and you will
know better next time. ''There were
many other bad things going on at
that time. Yes, and the republicans
and gold democrats helped pass the
chad things" in spite of the opposi-
ton of the majority of the democrats.
But have we no chad things" going
on now? This bloody war of con-
quest, this total disregard Of human
rights to "life, liberty, and the pur.
suit of happiness" this trucking to
British influences, this enormous
growth of trusts, this throwing men
out of employment because the trusts
have forced up prices and lessened
consumption, war taxes in times of
pe-do you call these good things?
The tariff you admire so much is a
good thing -for the trusts. You
ought to read some other paper be-
sides the Gazette; the TRIBUNE, for in
stance. But your next ''argument' is
| a corker: "Wouldn't it be real fun to
be a farmer then when they went to
town with a load of wheat and got six
teen sacks of silver for one of gold. :"
Pal, for your own sake, don't make
people believe you represent an insane
asylum. You accuse the Demo-pops
of this state of causing the low price
of wheat. Very we'll; the lowest price
of wheat under Lind's administration
has been SO cents; the lowest under the
Clough regime was 43 cents. Thus ac-
cording to your own "argument'' the
Lind administration has added 10 cents
| bushel to the value of wheat. Now
1 have some questions to ask. What
was the Wilson Bill? What great
things did the Clough regime do for
our farmers? Prove that the repub-
lican party has done more good than
the democratic party has done. What
great things has the Mckinley admin
istration done for our people?

After a man has robbed his fellow coun-

who embezzled $1,30O,000? His sentence
was ten years; by good behavior he gets
out al the end of six and a half. If he
had remained honest he could not have

DECISION AGAINST THE CRY.
Writ of Certiorari Must BE Heard on
Its Merits.

Judge Falligant decided in the Superior
Court yesterday the motion made by CITY
Attorney Adams for the dismissal of the
certiorari of ]. n. Andersen against tho
Mayor and aldermen. The decision was al
verse to the motion and to the contentious
of the city attorney.
Anderson was tried and found guilty in
the Recorders Court, in February, 1899, of
the offense of selling liquor on Sunday and
was sentenced to pay fine of S1o0. He
paid the fine, and his attorneys, Messrs. D.
c. Barrow and w. E. Morrison, then had
the case carried by writ of certiorari 10
the Superior Court After the sanction of
the writ by the court, process was served
upon Clerk of Council Bailey, by whom
service was acknowledged.
Mr.. Adams motion 10 dismiss was based
on the ground that process should have
been served on the Mayor, instead of The
clerk of Council, and that, therefore, it
was void. This motion was argued by
Messrs. Barrow and Morrison, for the
plaintiff, and by Mr.. Adams for the DE-
PENDANT. Judge Falligant held that SER
vice had been properly perfected and that
the Recorder should answer the writ 90
that it might be tried and determined on
IT'S merits

white House China.
From the chicago Journal.

Washington, May 12.-Broken china
from the White House commands a very
high price. Unless IL Is broken II is not
supposed to be outside of the executive
mansion. and possession of a perfect
piece Is prima facie evidence of theft by
the possessor. But when mcked or broken
the china is disposed of by the steward at
public auction. Then collectors, profess
sionel and otherwise, buy 1t up, and mend
IL, and add st to their collections or dis
pose of 1t again at a profit.
There is a White House set for nearly
every administration. Whenever II seems
to be necessary Congress appropriates 49,
900 for new state dinner service. The
master and mistress of the White House
have designs r1rGe and then the service
is made by some such maker as Havelin
When a new service is brought in che one
which has been In use is put in a cab
met, and is kept for show purposes alone
The Lincoln, Grant, Hayes, and Cleveland
sets are now thus preserved. Harrison,
when President, did not have set made.
The Hayes set is the handsomest and
most costly.
Mrs. Senator Fairbanks recently bought
at an old curio shop Lincoln, a Grant,
and a Hayes plate and considered herself
fortunate to get them at a price which
would have bought small house. The
last auction held by the steward of the
White House was the 10Th of last Decem-
Der. Mrs. Dawes secured a fine Grant
plate.
There is never any question about the
genuineness of these specimens, as they
all bear the special White House mark
which is copyrighted. There is other
china used at the executive mansion on
ordinary occasions which has no marks
but Il is not particularly choice and is not
sought after A Rochester, N. Y, lady

GRAY WOLVES AS PETS.
A wyoming Man Finds Them Affec-
tionate and Timetable.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
Gray wolves are the most favored do
nestle pets on the ranch of A. j. Both
well on the Sweetwater river, Wyoming.
The children romp with them and have
taught them many of the amusing tricks
that earn applause In denser centers OF
civilization when performed by French
poodles. There is never a thought of fear
in the relationship.
These wolves we're captured as pups a
wear ago. They were only two weeks old
and their blue eyes had not long been
open. From the snug den In which their
wise old mamma was beginning their ed
ucation they were dug out by human
hands and carried off to the ranch.
From the very first these wild found
lings exhibited Iovable qualities. They re-
paid caresses and kind words with every
demonstration of gratitude and gamboled
with their captors in a way that was IRE
sistible.
Like more civilized puppies. they had a
tendency to chew shoes and slippers. drag
table cloths from their appointed places.
and dig holes in treasured flower beds but
they never attempted 10 bite their friends.
AS they grew bigger a playground was
fenced In for them with stout wire netting.
There to this day they disport themselves,
quite contented In captivity so long as the
children OF the ranch frequently go In 10
play with them and teach them new tricks.
They are grown up wolves now, with all
the strength Of their species. They have
