money was to be left, and the assurance
was given that the missing boy would be
allowed to return home within few
hours of the time the cash was received.
A consultation was held at once and, i'm
pelled by the strain under which the en-
tire household was laboring, Mr.. Cudahy
decided to comply with the terms offer
ed and ransom his son.
The money was secured by trusted.

miles west of town on the Sherman ave

by the side Of the road. This was the
place where he was to leave the boys

he deposited the sack close to the sticls

seeing any one, lie returned to his home.

ded that all street cleanings and 9TH
er work of sanitation will cease on
Saturday, November Sd. Thereafter
the city must provide the means of
carrying on the work which the
committee has done as a matter of
health in the present emergency.
The building committee reported
that up to date 1900 applications
for building and repairs has been is
sued and the demand continues. The
committee rep ,rted that S310,6O0,
which had been set aside for build
Ing and repair purposes was not suf-
ficient. With the number of appli-
cations now on file, distribution of
this amount would only give 1925
to each applicant for rebuilding,
while it requires not less than $3.50
to construct the cheapest habitable
house.
The committee states that in or
der to provide homes for those poor
people who lost everything in the
storm would require an expenditure
of not less than s8,0O0,00o.

THE PURPOSE OF. GOVERNMENT
In another column in this issue ap-
pears an able address from Justice
Brewer, of the United States Su-
preme Court, on the question Of re,
tanning the Philippine Islands.
In speaking OF the fundamental
principles of our government in
guaranteeing to each individual
'eq uality before the law" the emf
aent and able Justice says:
"We have not let the wise rule the
ynorant, the learned the unlearned,
he rich the poor, but We have ap.
pealed always to 1.-The plain people
;ss the ones IN whose judgment to
rely and upon whose shoulder.
hould rest the burden Of the gov.
,rnment."
These ideas are truly in accord
With the Declaration OF Indepen
,ence and with the teachings Of tn.
,reat and immortal Jefferson, bu
aey are, according to the presen,
rganized mobocracy in this State, 8

:, reat leaders.
Their doctrine here 10 one OF
: force and fraud" They believe
tust the common people nave no
rights that they are bound to respect.
Neither do they believe in law and
order.
Anarchy, murder, violence and
rodshirtism are the chief creed and
practice of the North Carolina Mo.
bocratic political organization that
recently obtained power to govern
by force and fraud"
The wise and able address by Jus
tie Brewer would certainly be repu-
dated by the ballot-stufhng elemen,
in this State. For they have long
since declared by their conduct in
tie election that the Declaration of
Independence that ALI men are ere.
ated equal" is but "glittering gen
erslity" and not great living prin-
ciple that should be sustained BY all
men.
