ABATE THE NUISANCE. "Frash teesh,

sons are awakened about daylight every
morning. This is yelled in steDtorian
tones, every few seconds, and every
man, woman and child for blocks
around is aroused, and just at the time
when tired humanity is able to get a
little rest, after tossing about all night
in the vain effort to get to sleep, and
further rest is impossible. 1t would
not be permitted in any other city In
the country; why is tlis? The other
night two men were arrested and fined
$3.50 each for playing street piano
after o'clock. What would be thought
if every store keeper in town were to
stand 10 front Of his store ss soon as he
commenced business each day, and
yelled out his wares at the top OF his
voice? | do not wish TO interfere with

been made to hold a meeting at

fault of theirs, are now destitute of the
necessaries OF life. 1t is hoped that the
sale of tickets will be large. The pas.

requested to make announcements OF
the proposed meeting and concert from
their respective pulpits tomorrow.
Members of the City Council have

Miss JEWETT.-Miss Lillian Clayton
Jewett, OF Boston, Mass. left
Richmond yesterday afternoon for
New York rather Unexpectedly.
1t is possible that the fact that in her
mail yesterday morning the young
woman received letters advising her to
take this course had something TO do
with hes departure. She admitted that
she mad received q number OF COMMIT
ucations from Richmond people, but
declined 10 discuss their nature.
The people of Richmond were much
displeased with her sentiments ex-
pressed to negroes, and she received
Two letters, warning her that If she
stayed too long something might hap
pen the reverse Of pleasant. She also
received challenge from John s. Eg'
gleston, a young lawyer, offering to de-
rate the subject of lynching with her
in hall, the money arising therefrom
10 be donated to the orphans of negroes
lynched in tbe.South. She ignored the
proposition.
Miss Jewett was greatly disappoini-
ed that she did not receive more cor
lisl reception at the hands of the col
ored convention and members OF that
race generally. She confessed that at
Richmond, the former capital of the
Confederacy, she expected to be given
rousing reception by the negroes.

What the Trusts Get.

The Democratic congressional COM
mittee has given out statement show
ing the advance In the prices Of neces'
stiles under the trusts fostered by the
present administration.
Here are u few Of the reasons why
the plain people are not inclined to
nieekly accept the inspired statements
of the trust organs and speakers showing
what u natural necessary and beneficent
institution the trust is;
1T requires so per cent, more wheat
to buy stove than 1t did In 1896 1t
requires twenty bushels more corn to
buy u wagon than II did in 1896. II re.
quires 100 per cent more corn or wheat
to buy copper kettle than IL did In
1896.
1T requires twice rs much corn to
buy u coil Of rope as IN 1895. II re.
quircs 40 per cent, more grain to buy II
pillow than In 1896. 1t requires 10 per
cent. more grain to buy hoe, a rake
or u shovel than In 1896,
"A set of common wheels that cost
81 in 1895 now cost Sic, The price Of
cultivators and other farm imprements
has gone up proportionately.
Galvanized barbed wire costs from
81 to "a. 80 per 100 more than IN 1895.
1T requires 40 per cent. more corn
or cotton TO buy pound Of sugar than
IN 1895.
lyon have to pay 40 per cent more
for glass than In 1896,
Freight rates have climbed back to
the exhorbitant prices which caused a
popular revolt In legislation few years
ago.
1.-The prices OF oil coal, lumber, tools
and hardware have gone up FROM 40 to
100 per cent,
"And all these things have been done
by the trusts,
"A trust robs you waking or sleeping

SEVERAL of the railroads are consider
ing the ACCESSIBILITY Of abandoning
the title of brakeman on passenger
trains and calling him assistant con
ductor. The brakes on passenger
trains are no longer worked by hand
but by air, and therefore, it is
argued, that the old title is n misnomer.
1.-The name brakeman, said II railroad
man, ''has been misnomer ever since
brakemen ceased to be brakeman--that
Is, when air brakes came into use. A
brakeman nowadays has nothing what
ever TO do with the brakes. He simply
attends to signals, calls names of stations
and otherwise assists in conducting the
trains. The change to assistant con.
ductor' is logical, because these men
are frequently promoted to conductors.
Besides, 1t would tend to raise the
standard of the calling, - This question
of u change of title will probably be taken
up NJ the next meeting of the Brother.
hood Of Railway Trainmen, which Is
made up principally of brakemen, and
ell the roads will be asked to adopt this

Chicago American Horse Sense.

What is the use of talking over nice
ties of imperialism, or finance, -
or banking policiesH Why not look
at the big facts2
If bull is chasing you across the
field you do not hesitate rs to what
you shall do. You don { theorize rs to
the bull Is creed or color.
You get out of the way.
This election is the most distinct case
of big issues that has ever been known
in American politics,
Take just two facts.
The Republican party protects and
encourages system that in very few
years would lay you open to be drafted
for army service to build up noble and
gallant fighting gentlemen officers of the
Roosevelt stamp.
Do You want thatY
Do you want that2 Or do you want
the right to say whether you will be
soldier or continue as at PRESENT.
One other fact-and please consider
it.
The Republican party is piling on war
taxes. 1t adds hundreds Of millions to
the national cost and 1t refuses to let the
rich pay their share through an income
tax.
You 60 to the army against your will.
You give up your home for fifteen dollars
month-snd your brother or uncle
working for wages at home has the
pleasure of being taxed to pay that
salary.
The man with hundred million who
uses you to open Chinese markets for
his petroleum, or steel rails or canned
meat, draws his full income, with never
tax upon it to help out the war ex.
penses.
The Democratic party is against q big
standing army.
1t Is in favor Of letting man stay at
home and live to suit himself.
And 1t Is in favor of heavy income
tax, which shall force the rich to pay
their share.
We say to you kindly that II you vote
for Republicanism this fall you will
deserve the foolish feelings that will
afllict you before McKinley's second
term shall end.
Vote like u sensible man. Take the
government away from Hanna and
Rockefeller and the other prize vultures
Of commerce for while.
