on the wholesale blackmailme of feder-

to produce party corruption fund for
use in Ohio. The declaration that the
administration has acted wisely in its
effort to secure for public service in
Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii and the
Philippine Islands "only those whose
fitness has been determined by training
aud experience is enough to set the
pictures of departed statesmen which
embellish the hall to "mNking faces" at

ployment in the public service, says
the platform writer, "should be confn-
ed as far as practicable to their inhabi-
tants." He is an ignoramus, indeed,
who does not know that the positions
in the islands have been looked upon
as money-making enterprises for party
servants. The carpet-bag system pre-
walls, and it is as hoggish and dishon
est as it was in the south Just after the
civil war.
The paragraph ON the South African
war is timid and meaningless, 1t is
without meaning save as it betrays
fear of offending the British govern

PARIS LETTER
(Trom our Regular oorrespondento

Paris, France, June 4,-Will you go
with me to the Exposition today? There
are several ways of reaching it-by
street car, omnibus, by boat on the
Seine or by cab. We will take the
last, for cabs are everywhere in Paris
and the fare will be only 30 cents with
tip of and one-half cents to the
coachman. SO we mount cab and
say to the driver in American French
ga la exposition porte de Trocadero. Z"
1t is we'll to tell him what porte or gate
you wish to enter for there are thirty
six different ones, and by going to the
one nearest the points you wish to Wis
it you may AVOID long walk. Enter
ing the grounds by the Trocadero gate,
two-thirds of the exposition is spread
at our feet in the champs de Mars and
from our eminence, but single object,
the incompatible Eiffel Tower appears
to overtop us. 1t is bewildering en-
trancing spectacle; of most harmonious
coloring, brand new, up-to-date, moth
ing historic or legendary about it. And
all these dreams, delights and fantas-
les of architecture, of all climes and
lands must be swept away in few
monts when this most stupendous of
expositions rings down the curtain.

We will now see quickly the outside
of the exposition and measure its great
extent by getting on the elevated mov-
ing platform. This moves continuous
ly in one direction, making the entire
inside circuit of the exposition at the
speed of rapid walk, but by walking
rapidly upon it we can double our speed
and we can stop on an enclosed side
platform at any poiut and examine more
carefully any desiIed exterior of the
exposition buildings. Butt we desire
to go inside any building we must leave
the rolling platform and cannot resume
our place upon it without paying an
additional fare. This exposition does
not cover as many acres as did our late
Chicago exposition but it is much more
compact and incomparably finer and
richer than anything that has ever been
accomplished, and as / heard an expert

devising plans of campaign. The in

upsets these plans. The anxiety of the

Chairman Payne, of the house ways
and means committee, has given away
the claim of the republicans that the
reason they did not reduce war taxes
at the recent session Of congress, was
their desire to have that committee
grant hearings and study the question
during recess, so that the right sort Of
bill providing for the reduction might
be reported to the house by the official
announcement that the committee
would not be called together until just
before congress meets. In other words
the question of the reduction Of war
taxes is to be left open until after cleo
tion in order that all the big interests
may be taxed for the republican cam
paign fund.

WALT. BRowNIow's GREAT VICTORY
Pobably Means Withdrawal of Evans Cub
ernatoral and Electoral Tickets.


Philadelphia, June 2l.-The over
whelming victory of the Brownlow fac
tion over the Evans faction probably
means the withdrawal of the Evans
gubernatorial and electoral tickets from
the field in Tennessee. The electoral
ticket will certainly be withdrawn, for
the administration cannot have two re-
publican electoral tickets, even in
democratic state. The Evans people
here expect the gubernatorial ticket
will be withdrawn, but they say the
Evans men in Tennessee are fighting
mad and may be difficult to handle.
The statement of Postmaster Wills
and Col. Tom Baker, that they will not
support the Brownlow tickit for COVER
nor and electors, is very significant
The iloclling to the victor has begun.
The Brownlow people say the Eyans
gubernatorial candidate, W. f. Poston,
will withdraw. Commissioner Evans
would not discuss the future action of
his faction, but he did deny emphati-
cally that he had any idea of resigning.

abatement of the taxes there was not
a large number of petitioners. F. G..

William Wishart appeared in behalf

ried. Owing to the fact that the
mayor had called the meeting for the
purpose facing on the petitions of
Co. E it was decided that the meet
ing could not vote on any other petit
tion so it adjourned.
The grounds upon which the action
against Co. E was taken were that
the Board of Civil Authority had no
power to abate their taxes. The
City Council should have done this
before the list was completed previ-
GUS to May 18th.

hall where cake, coffee and other re-
freshments were served by Miss Mary
Abbott, assisted by Mrs. Kelton, Miss
Vincent and the Misses Reed. After
refreshments and social hour the
band favored thecompany with few
choice selections. 1t was evident to
jail who heard the serenade that the
organization was not only a credit to
themselves but to the town which
they belong.
A pleasing feature of the evening
was the fact that Republicans and
Democrats alike took part in doing
the honors, which goes to show that
the intolerant and bigoted spirit is de-
cidely on the wane in Worcester, and
that Mr.. Tewksbury is very popular

Judge Boyce Rakes Down the Liquo,
Dealers.
The case of Fred Lacasse for furn-
ishing liquor to one Albin was before
Judge w. A. Boyce yesterday after
noon. The trial was by jury COM
posed of the following gentlemen: G.
A. Smith, f. Drew, A. l. Skinner, T.
H. Cave, Jr., w. r. Hoadley and II.
L. Averill.
This case was peculiar one. Geo.
Albin got drunk Sept. I'd, and some
body made complaint on him result
ing in his arrest Sept. It'll. Before
the judge he plead guilty and said he
received the liquor from Fred Lacasse
to whom he gave the money and that
Lacasse went out and bought sealed
pint. A warrant was issued for the
arrest of Lacasse for furnishing, and
the jury found him guilty.
The judge in sentencing him said
that it had come to his ears that some
of those people engaged in the liquor
traffic had threatened those who dis.
closed on them, sometimes with bodily
harm and other times saying that their
life was in danger. He said that this
was shame in civilized country and
this city was not going to stand it and
asked all officers and any of the jury
men who hear Of anything Of this ma.
ture to report it to him, or any of the
other judges and they would see that
those men who were threatening in
formers received the full penalty Of
the law.
He then fined Lacasse $35 and costs
or thirty days in the House Of Correc-
ton if not paid In "a hours.
