Needless Driving.

What might have been q serious ac-
cident happened in front Of the Airing
ton Hotel shortly after 10 o'clock to-
day.
a small boy on brand new bike
was riding along slowly when the
driver Of the watering cart without
looking turned his team directly in
front OF the boy and as consequence
the youngster received a very bad tum-
BILE and the bike looked like it had
made connections with the business
end of mule.
The lad demonstrated with the driv-
or of the water cart and was told by
that individual, in tones that could be
heard half block, to go to the hot
place.
In case the boy wants to prosecute
the driver FOR needless driving several
eye witnesses are ready and willing to
appear for him.

Butler and correspondents

London, Dec. 21.-General Sir Red
vers Butler, like Kitchener in the last
Soudan campaign, Is no lover OF war
correspondents. There IL nothing more
certain than that II the himself had
entire control of affairs he would have
none of them. He believes that all the
war news necessary for the enlight-
eminent of the people at home and
abroad can be issued in the shape OF
daily bulletins from the War Office
these bulletins being based upon con-
slant dispatches from the commanding
officers at the different points Of en-
gagement. The war correspondent as
an individual is superfluous, fallible at
every turn. and nuisance generally
Where one is reliable and discreet in
his dispatches there are ninety and
nine VINO are rattle Drained and over
ontcrprising. Keep them at home, OF
at best cut them down fine IL was
some such remark as this that General
Butler urged upon the Admiralty au
thoritios before sailing for South At
RIGA.
1t Is because Of this prejudice Of Gen
eral Buffers that the scores of CORES
pondcnts from American papers. who
within the past six weeks have come to
London en- route to the scene of hostill-
ties in South Africa, are discovering
much to their dsmay that IL is about
as easy for camel to pass through Il
needles eye as 1t is for them to get
through that forbidding, mysterious
and omnipotent structure on Pail Mall
which the worl has very good rea-
son to know as The War Office OF the
British empire.

at is singular" remarked man
from New Jersey, who saw from the
postoffice the lightning strike the flag
staff of the Tract Society's building,
chow the roar of thunder is greater
the farther away the bolt strikes, if
it strikes anywhere near. Now, that
crash" and he nodded at the Tract
building, was like the report of a
great gun. If it were nearer it would
be sharper, but more like a rifles crack
than of a thirteen-incher.
Not long ago the lightning struck
twice within a few yards of me. 1 took
shelter from rain in at shed out
our way. During the storm saw just
outside two prongs of fire dart into
the earth, for all the world like a
serpent's tongue. Each dart was SIM
ultaneous with a sound like the sharp
crack of a mighty whip. Then fol-
lowed n receding roll of thunder tat
grew greater as it rolled away. That
was hairraising experience. On
other occasions l have seen the light
ming strike, but at distances where
the sound followed at distinct inter-
walls, and the farther away, as 1 have
said, the greater was the roar.
Il imagine man struck by lightning
doesn't hear any sound at ALL"
This was said as seriously as if the
speaker didn't recognize the incongru-
ity of the remark.-New York Mail

ANOTHER CUBAN SCANDAL.

Another Cuban scandal has come to
light. This one is not given as much
publicity as the postofice affair, pos
sibly because the victims were labor
ers, but it Is none the less as outrage
GUS as the other case. Thousands of
poor laborers have been at the mercy
of money sharks who, by the favorit-
ism of civil administration have been
permitted to buy up the time checks
of the workmen. By the system in
vogue the money lenders, through
their small advances. which we're guar
anteed by some officers and foramen in
charge of works, were enabled TO have
the full pay of the common iahorers
turned over to them. The War De-
partment has been making frantic e.
forts to head off a disclosure of the
scandal because the Cuban administra-
ton is already responsible for SO many
corrupt practices, but a portion of the
story has leaked out. The department
has ordered that civil disbursing Off
GERS shall make payments at or near
the working places and to the men in
dlVluually whose HdueS appear Oh the
pay rolls. Officers in charge of labor
ers have been forbidden to guarantee
the payment of transferred checks or
to allow any other person to make
such guarantee and every other posi-
BILE method is being resorted to in or.
der to stop the robbery before it grows
to such proportions that full expos
ure cannot be prevented. The dishon-
esty OF United States officials in Cuba
has already caused the Spanish ex-
officials to open their eyes in wonder
and admiration, and it wouldn't be sur
prising if few more exposures would
start a revolution among the benevo-
lently assimilated Cubans.-Cleveland

MANY TRUSTS OR ONE.

Most of the business of the country
is already in the hands of the trusts
and it will not be long, if present
conditions continue, until they will abb
solutely control every branch of trade.
When that is the case where is there
a chance of success for your boy or my
boy? He cannot commence an indie
pendent business of any kind. for ev-
cry avenue will be closed. His only
chance will be in the overcrowded pro-
LESSONS or as. the hired man OF cor.
poration. Your boy or mine may not
be bright enough to excel in the law
and We don't want to see him as
shyster or a pettifogger. He may not
be deceitful enough to make doctor.
He may not be pious enough for a
preacher and he can't teach school for
the pretty school ma ans have crowd
ed him out. He might be servant of
servants to the Standard Oil robbers
or to a railroad or the bank trust
He might learn trade if there were
not already a million mechanics out Of
job. He might be a hired hand on
farm at twelve dollars a month or per-
haps he could get job in depart
ment store at six dollars a week, pro-
vided they couldn't get girl at three
dollars who would do the work just as
well. There is still open to him siti-
uation as private in our imperial army
at sixteen dollars a month with all
the comforts of warm climate and
the delights Of an army canteen.
What are you going to do with that
boy of yours? Don't this question
trouble you night and day? Do you
see any way out? AS long as the
trusts live wealth will accumulate and
men will decay. The trusts must be
killed or your boy and my boy will
go to the wall or else live and die the
hired hand of a greedy monopolist.
Can the trusts be killed? No; they
have come to stay. but they can be
benevolently assimilated. They can
all be merged in one universal trust
owned and controlled by all the peo-
pie. This is the only way out of the
labyrinth. The more that honest and
'telligent men study this question

But in some respects the south is
making good progress. Our manufac-
lures are increasing in every state, our
agriculture is improving and our fruit
growing is advancing all along the
line. The diffusion of knowledge is
spreading from the towns to the coun-
try hamlets and everybody takes and
reads newspapers. Now if we can
stop these negro tramps who waylay
the highways and byways we will have
good, quiet, peaceable country and
can sit under our own vines and shade
trees and worship God according to
our own conscience.
Mean niggers are our greatest curse
and there are thousands of them, for,

about the truth of it. If every niger
was put in who has been guilty of
stealing there wouldn't be enough left
to get up a baptizing or an excursion.

the clearer they see that public own
ership of all the means of production
and distribution is the only solution
of this question. But you say that
would be socialism. OF course 1t
would, but 1t is the only remedy just
the same. The people are not as much
afraid of that word as they used to
be. When they understand it, it Is
no longer bugbear A million Amer
lean voters are ready for socialism to-
day and are only waiting in the hope
that something may possibly happen
to give them more immediate relief. II
Bryan were not candidate for presi-
dent, socialism would get a million
votes this year, but the people believe
that Bryan is their friend; they know
he is brave, honest, sincere and they
hope that he will be able to do some
thing for their relief If Bryan should
be beaten, or IL when elected, he
should fail to meet the hopes Of the
plain, people the social democrats will
elect president in 1904.
