A SERIOUS MIX.UP.
An Illinois Mans Experience with
Treacherous Fly Paper.

Grand Ridge ILL.,. Enterprise
A Grand Ridge man, who shall
be nameless here, like the most of
us is terribly down on flies. He
has been known to throw out a cup
of coffee with three flies floating in
1t, and when he finds flies in his
syrup he begins to buck right then
and there, and it takes four men to
hold him and make him spread it
on his pancakes.
He uses sticky fly paper to good
effect, and fairly eloats over the
flies he catches. But it is getting
dark and we must hasten on with
our story. He placed two fly
papers on two chairs and then
put them near the window.
He came home late the other
evening and what did he do but
plump right down into one of those
chairs.
He got up and paved at the fly
paper but he couldn't get it of
without taking off his pants. He
took them off and while tearinl
frantically at the fly papar sat dowr
on the other chair ~!

directors say you should influence
your husband and sons to vote

the polls and cast a vote yourself
than to get your husbands aid sons
to go. They say it will brush the
bloom from womanhood, and then
these same directors fall to praising

wifehood and motherhood. II

still be good wife and mother.

womanhood, why cannot the aver

Suffrage is right, and not
privilege. That it is a right OF
every individual is the only basis
for women demanding it. If it is
not right, but a privilege that

the white and withheld from the
black, be given to those who have

Am glad to see that you have

Kindly allow me to call attention

under the caption of another View

widely known as one of the leaders
in the characterization movement,
and in the letter to which invite
your attention, he gives some Eng

the people are vaccinated the
greater their liability to have the
smallpox. The following brief quo

sure, make your readers DESTROYS of

Immunity from smallpox, except
by killing its victims, the following
unquestionable and unanswered facts
afford complete disproof. In Great
Britain vaccination was voluntary,
but recommended and encouraged,
from I847 to 1883, when it was
made compulsory; in 1867 another
act was passed by which the com
pulslon was increased and enforced
with cruel violence. There have
been three general epidemics oil

WASHINGTONLE LETTER.
Tho Sugar and Tobacco Trusts Try
ing to Prevent Free Trade With
Porto Rico.
The Philippine Question IN the Next
Campaign.
Flom our leguIar eorrespondent.

From our regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, June "a, 1901
The same interests-the sugar
and tobacco trusts-which made
Mr.. Mckinley turn such a sudden
somersault on the Porto Rican. tar
Ill question are now working to
make him nullify the provisions of
the Foraker act. That act provi-
ded that whenever the Legislature
of Porto Rico notifies the President
OF the United States that a system
of internal taxation has been put
into effect that would meet the ex-
penses of the government of the
island, the President should issue a
proclamation declaring free trade
with Porto Rico, and that in any
event the tariff on Porto Rican prod
ucts should cease 10 exist March
I, 1902. An extra session of the
Porto Rican Legislature has been
called to meet July 4, for the pur-
pose of giving the President the
notification provided for in the
Foraker act and requesting him to
issue proclamation declaring free
trade. This the trust interests are
working to prevent on the pretend
ed ground that the system of inter
nal taxation provided by the
Legislature of Porto Rico will not
provide the necessary revenue, but
in reality because they intend to
prevent free trade between Porto
Rico and the United States, if they
can. Their plan is to compel Mr..
to decline to issue a free
trade proclamation, and then to get
Congress TO amend the Foraker act,
the tariff on Porto Rican
products, before it expires by limi-
tation. 1t is difficult to say what
the result will be. Mr.. Mckinley |
wants free trade with Porto Rico,
as he did when he sent his annual
message to the last Congress, but
the trusts compelled him to eat his
W jrds and do their bidding then
and they may be able to do so again.
