Ex-Governor Altgeld Oh l+iinpisi ID
his address before the Albany BE-
metallic League on " What Jefferson
would Do, said in part
The foundations OF justice are
shaking. and the affairs Of liberty are
crumblisg. Dirty fingers are laid on
the Goddess OF Justice ard so.led
hands are pllaging the temple Of hui
mility.
Finding the government such n
profitable asset, the priya.e monopo-
lists have taken possession OF II.
They seek to control caueusses, con-
yentions and elections They control
legislation, they own courts aud they
dictate to the President Of the Unit
ed States.
Although living in Republic, aud
having no need OF an army, the cor
porations OF America are fostering a
military establishment, aud the bull
pens of Idaho show what IS in store
for the toilers OF America if this cor.
rupt rule of the syndicate is not ur.
rested.
Once the Republican party stood
for great principles, once it had >
message for humanity. But the flu
ger OF the corporation has erased
every great motto from its banners,
and to-day the great party OF Lin
coin sits meekly in the market place
and takes its instructions from the
trust magnates OF America.
Under these circumstances it is
natural for both Republicans and
Democrats to ask what would Jcffer-
son do il he were here?
Here Is the key to Jefferson's mind.
Here is the cornerstone Of his politi-
cal fabric and the tombstone OF his
political philos ophv: Leave every
thing to the people, submit al i'm
portant matters to the people; TIE
people can be trusted; they may err,
but they will right th mselves
Jefferson was one Of the most rad
ical men, and was the most aggres
sive and progressive politician aud
statesman of tina, period. He was
neutral in nothing, he uever trinmod
nor lodged nor straddled, h. never
asked whether measure was popu-
lar, but whether it was just and eter-
nally right, He would punish by
proper proceedings all those men who
use the military forces SO as to vic
late the rights of American citizens,
He would coin both silver and gold
on like terms. He would denounce
the financial bill passed by Congress
as a crime against free people
Jefferson would encourage the Fill.
Pine people to establish free gov
ernment, and give them such protec
ton as We give the Soath American
republics. He would send message
OF good will and morl support to
the South At..oan r, fadlics that are
now fighting for exisJeuoe.
He would establish just income
tax and require conec4 trated capital
to bear its STARE CT tae burdens oil
government. and thus tighten the
burdens OF thu smaller taxpayer.
Well, what would he 90 as citizen
in the year 1900 Il be were here?
1t is clear from his utterances, his
character aud shis course that he
would, with ell his might, support
Chicago platform and William J.
Bryan.
A spirit of Independence is grow
ing and neither of the great parties
can be delivered as they once could.
The Almighty is cutting a road
through the forest and its coming is

Nov she passed numerous kopjes OF
red earth. interspersed with shrubs,
between which grew abundance of
flowers. white jasmine and climbing
convolvulus. and the rich glory of red
and yellow bloom clustered thickly on
the low, dwarf shrubs which covered
the kopies.
Bluebell had acquaintances i'm Lady
smith. The Leslies were pretty well
known In the country.
She was just turning into the town
when some one emerging from behind
a sudden curve came towards her.
Bluebell started little and stopped
over Rover, richer color than exer-
else had brought there coming into her
cheeks.
In few seconds the new conner was
close to her, and lifting his big gray
hat from his head, paused by her
horse. He was young man, perhaps
nearing thirty, attired in gray khaki
and with sunburnt face which show
ed that he was exposed to
all weather. For the rest, he had
been originally fair-complexioned
man, with good features and an open,
frank expression. His dark gray eyes
were clear and steady, but could look
wonderingly soft and tender. They
did so now, though his expression was
one of much anxiety as he held out his
hand, into which Bluebell put hers
without word.

NUMBER "slxrERN. ;,

In his history Of New York, one OF
the classics of American authorship,
Diedrick Knickerbocker (Washington
Irving) wrote lovingly, yet with une-
tuous sarcasm, Of the beauties and
traditions of his loved ''Nieu Neither
lands" the peaceful valley Of the
Hudson from Albany to Manhattan,
the many legends with which the en-
tire region abounds-notably that Of
Rip Van Wrinkle and his long sleep
and of the ancient names and families
whose descendants are still power in
that locality. So far reaching were
the effects of the History" that in
time the name "Knickerbocker" be-
came the popular one for the patron
saint of New York City, he usually be-
ing represented as benignant old
German of ample girth, clutching
firmly the long stemmed clay pipe
which Irving immortalized and gazing
over his beloved city.
Recognizing the vein of sentiment
in the American people long ago a
train service was inaugurated to New
York from st. Louis to which Father
Knickerbocker lent his name and
through the efforts of the line which
introduced the service, the "Knicker-
booker Special" has become as famil-
lar to the average Travelled American
as to residents Of his own City. Leav-
ing st. Louis at noon the traveller Is
borne swiftly and safely to Father
Knickerbocker' abode, traversing by
daylight those scenes with which he
was so familiar, arriving at New York
the next day in time for leisurely
preparation for evening.
So popular has the service proven
that the Big Four has started a new
train as companion, it leaving st.
Louis at 500 a. M, receiving all West
ern and Southwestern connections and
arriving in New York at 2:55 the
next day. This train is known as the
New York and Boston Limited but
the wayfarer who travels much Will
call it Number Sixteen in emulation OF
his railroad brethren and inquire II
"she" Is on time. A months business
has demonstrated that it is a success.
The Big Four's motto is Comfort in
travel" and the train amply lives up
to the motto as trip on it will prove
to those who desire every convenience
in travel. A letter to the General Or
flee of the Big Four at Cincinnati
about any of their trains will always
receive a prompt and co; rteous, reply

aHa. aow Is Good Enr,Ish.

Another language saver has launch
ed his boat. "Is has got good Eng
lish?" he writes. Should not got be
omitted?" For the three hundred and
thirty third and last time we say that
'has got" is sound, correct English,
good historically, good in modern use,
perfectly healthy idiom. Anybody
who has scruples about the got" can
cut 1t out. Anybody who has taste
for prunes, potatoes, prisms, can learn
to break himself of the habit of say
ing "has got" if he perseveres. We
seek to put no constraint upon the Ten
der consciences. But abstainers from
"has got" should be warned against
being puffed up. Fresh English Is al
ways good, but persons who like it
canned are welcome to take 1t that
way. They mustn't put on airs, though.

In Burmah amber Is found In a re-
gion difficult of access and jealously
guarded by those who have every in
terest in keeping their secret. 1t Is
situated in the Hukong valley, sur
rounded on three sides by almost i'm
passable ranges of mountains, so that
it is accessible only from the south
across low hills forming the watershed
between the Chindwin and the Ira
waddy. In one of these low hill
ranges are the famous and mysterious
mines of golden resin. 1t is obtained
in very primitive way. After the
harvest the diggers go to the hills,
and selecting place where there are
no pits dug by previous prospectors,
shape with their swords small
pointed hoe, wooden shovel, and a
basket Of split bamboo. With these
they make a hole in the blue clap, re-
moving the refuse by means Of the
basket, and gradually deepening the
shaft. Three men work In company
one below (the shaft not being large
enough for more than one at time),
while the others hand up the basket.
The amber Is found in pockets,
which are generally indicated by
strings Of coaly matter appearing in
the ay.-Stray Stories.

STREET PEDpLERs IN, TURKEY.
Unique Tradesmen who Ply Their Arts
In ConstantinOple.

In ConstantinOple.
One OF the most unique and omni-
present features of oriental life as
seen in Constantinople, is the cafe-ji,
or coffee seller, and one has but to cry
out 'Cafe-ji!' without even taking the
trouble to turn his head, and in trice
tiny cup of Turkish coffee, black and
full of sediment, is smoking hot be-
fore. him. At noon business Is par
ticularly brisk, for every clerk and
every wayfarer desires to supplement
his luncheon of bread and cheese, or
bread and lettuce or garlic, with the
beloved beverage. If at any time you
desire to supplement your coffee with
morsel of delicious fish or a tender,
juicy kebab, strung on spit, and
broiled over charcoal brazier in the
'open air, give but the word, and the
wandering kebab-ji will be only too
glad to turn an honest penny and cook
your dinner in the sight Of all men.
The shoeblacks are perhaps the most
persistent of all street-criers. If one
has q stationary position he contents
himself with beating perpetual tat
too on his ornate brass stand calling
Justify meanwhile, 'Lustrad-ji! Lust
rad-ji!" But if he is rover he fol-
lows a prospective customer for
streets, imploring the public to look at
those shoes SO sadly in need of his
attention. Lastly, but not least in this
Kaleidoscope procession of business
men, comes the Turkish barber, whose
repertory includes also the offices OF
chiropodist, dentist and leech. Setting
up his umbrella in the shade of some
friendly tree he Is soon ready to at
tend to the needs of his patrons. Sur
rounded by an interested crowd of
street gamins, he pulls teeth vi ct
armis, applies the willy leech with an
enthusiasm beautiful to see, or rubs,
lathers and scrapes his customer, who
sits humbly on a stool holding brass
bowl by both hands under his chin. If
| the latter is Turk and wishes his
head shaved the barber is careful to
leave tuft of hair unmolested on the
top of his pate, long enough for the
death angel to grasp him by on his
ascent to paradise; while If he is to
be shaved or have his nails cut the
clippings are carefully preserved to
be sent to friends as talismans.-Chi-

Curious Light Of rirsnlsa

According to the Scientihc Amer
ican, the light of firefiies contains pho
tographic rays, which will pass
through aluminium. cardboard or cop
per plate; the rays are capable Of re-
Election and probably refraction and
polarization; this indicates the pres
ence of rays belonging to the ultra
violet class. and If this is SO they are
probably the same as the rays emitted
by uranium, known as Becquerel rays;
besides these invisible Photographic
rays, it contains ordinary light rays.
The organ producing them consists Of
a transparent, superficial layer which
gives of the light, and of deep
opaque layer whose function is not OBJ
vious; the ultimate branches Of the
trachae or air tubes are distributed
through this apparatus, as are also
nerve fiberS.
