the socalIed ''outrages by civil and mill

SEVERAL OF the citizens OF the town
have suggested TO US the propriety OF
calling the attention OF the trustees TO
the fact that OF late years the street
crossings have been laid on level, and
in some cases below the level, OF the
street, resulting in their being buried in
al inch or two OF mud during the wet
season; and that it would be q good
idea for the board to look after the mat
Ter and see that the new crossings are
laid lew inches above the street level.
These crossings are put in for the bene-
lit OF pedestrians and are useless when
buried in the mud.

AT the behest Of Mark Hanna and

Mckinley has repudiated his own mes
cage on the Porto Rican question. lie
now says discriminating tariff must be
levied against the island. He is out
spoken against what be now terms free
trade with the island and Is willing to
make himself the subservient tool Of de.
signing politicians who wish to make
the Porto Rican bill the entering
wedge for colonial empire. The presi
dents weakness 10 in his inability TO
to resist the imperialists and stand by
what his conscience tells him is right.
lie spoke the true sentiments OF McKin-
ley in that part Of his message covering
the Porto Rican question. lie now
speaks the sentiments OF those who
would destroy republican government
for the sake OF gain in dollars and cents.
lie allows the plutocrRts to dictate his
policy when he knows II is wrong. II
the Porto Rican bill, with its tariff dis
criDination, becomes q Law, the people
will rise In their might and defeat the
Republican party.in the coming contest.
