from the few who see their merit de-

Vate secretary of the dead chief,
of whom the Pittshurg Times we'll
says: MIR. Cortclyou was with the
president when the assassin fired the
fatal shot. From that moment until

to the arrangements for the opera

passed in judgment upon everything
except matters requiring technical
knowledge. lie saw that the people
were appriscd constantly of the con-
dition of the patient, and that the tid-
inEs given out were accurate and COM

the people as Candidly as he could
have done with his own household.
Every development was given to the
newspapers and press associations at
once and without evasion.
"ln all of the trying period he stood

1t has been said that Major McKn-

Condolences abound in connection
with the Buffalo tragedy. one of the
latest to be noted is that President
Garheld's death occurred on the same
day of the month fixed for President
Mckinlcy's burial at Canton, the an
nivcrsary of the battle of Chicka-
mauEua, i'm which General Garfield
took a conspicuous part. Furthermore,
yesterday, the day of the Mckinley
funeral services at Washington, was
also the anniversary of the battle OF
Antictam, in which Mr.. McKinley's
conduct was so heroic as to elicit spe-
Cial mention by his commanding Off
Ger, Colonel, afterward President
Hayes. strangely indeed, do the
threads of our history intertwine.

Look Out for Fakes.

Soap swindlers are reaping rich
harvest i'm parts of Berrien county,
says the st. Joseph Press. One day
last week two well dressed young men
struck the south end of this county
and worked their game to a finish.
They have also been at Michigan City
and Laporte. They claim to be intro
ducing new brand of toilet soap.
The price of the soap was 80 cents
a box, and they agreed to give five
yards of Brussels carpet with each box
purchased. The soap was to be paid for
and delivered at the time of taking
the order, but the carpet was net to
be delivered for week. When queS-
toned as to how they could sell carpet
so cheap they said that merchants
were simply robbing the public and
that Brussels carpet could be bought
from the looms at cents a yard. So
enticing were they with their promise
that many families were taken in for
one or more boxes. Within a fe,S
hours some $50 were obtained and the
fakirs left. A strange thing was that
almost every one realized within few
minutes after the swindlers were gone
that they were cheated. An examina-
ton of the soap revealed that it was OF
the cheapest quality.

EPWORTH HERALD ON ANARCHY
Methodist Organ Denounces yellow
Journalism" and Its Cartoons.

The Epworth Herald, the Rev. DR..
j. F. Berry, editor, which is weekly
Methodist paper with circulation of
nearly $50, 900 and goes all over the
world, printed the following editorial
in its issue CT Sept. p, under the cap
ton. ''Makiag Anarchists:
at is nov clear that Czolgosz is
not lunatic, but an anarchist. 1t is
said that he learned his anarchistic
sentiments from Emma Goldman.
That woman has done much harm.
But it is more probable that this man,
whom every American loatheS, got
some of his education from certain
daily papers which are widely circu-
lated in centerS of our population.
The cartoons in these papers are only
a trife more dangerous than their edi-
torial utterances. They array class
against class, and promote bitterness
which logically ends in open and de-
structive violence. Every wild-eye d
socialist, every blatant anarchist reads
these intiammatory sheets with de-
light. He is strengthened in his war
against all authority. He concludes
that his industrial and political vagar-
les are Endorsed in places of influence.
1t is no wonder we have anarchy in
New York and Chicago. Indeed, it
is a wonder we do not have more of it.
'We do not risk much III asserting
that the murderous Czolgosz had filed
his head with this sort of incendiar-
ism. His act was that of man with
diseased brain, and the utterly il
logical idea that social can
be changed by murder of rulers. The
publication of these damnable cartoons
has no excuse in disease or ignorance.
They are incendiary attacks against
law and order by persons intelligent
enough TO know the wrong, but reck-
less of the results of such inflamma-
tory and diabolical incentives to do
evil.
''In view of the murderous assault
upon the President we wonder what
the publishers of the Chicago Ameri :
can, the New York Journal, and the
Detroit Evening News think of the
teachings of their papers during the
past few months. Such papers
should be compelled to cease to incite
hatred against men who have attained
prominence in commercial and politi-
cal life, or be suppressed. The liberty
of the press is one thing. Unbridled
license to promote the spirit of an
archy is another"

RAILROAD Is ARROGANT
Pennsylvania People Council Meeting Monday Night Make Arbitrary Demands
Concerning Croains-Other Business

all the crossings it is entitled to in
law without paying for them, or why
any crossing now in existence should
be abandoned, the slick Mr.. McKim
did not explain. The railway COM
pany closed Third, Walnut and Miner
streets for its own particular behOof
and without any lawful right so to
do, but it gained no rights thereby
whatever.
Prescription does not run against
the public and the people are not
bound now by the negligence of any
former council or city or town official.
The company simply took the public
streets and has ever since held them
subject to the city's right to retake
them at any time. The use and oc-
cupancy it has enjoyed for nearly half
a century is ample compensation to it
for any expense it may be compelled
to incur now in re-opening these
streets. Its assumption of right
to indicate what streets shall be OPEN
ed, and how and when, and to de-
mand any part of the expense from
the city or to make any terms what
ever, is mere insolence.
What will the city attorney advise
and the council do?

The New Elevator.

The new Linkenhelt elevator is now
enclosed and its mammoth proportions
make quite change in the landscape
about the Lake Erie depot. The new
building is of modern design and con-
struction and will have nearly as great
capacity as the other two put together.
1t has been many years since D. A.
and d. E. Snyder had an elevator and
bought grain on the site now occupied
by the new structure and there have
been many changes since then, not
the least Of which is the acquisition
by the Vanderbilts of the old j. p &

permanent competition in freight
rates to all points.
