Street Vendors who Sell Nothing Less

There are many stories in this city
where nickel is not q welcome me-
dunn of exchange, because nothing so
cheap is sold, but it is hard TO believe
that there is a street stand which
would not welcome five-cent pur-
chase. II any one is curious in this re-
gard let him go to one of the fruit
stands in Cortlandt street, near the
Pennsylvania railroad ferry, and try
to make such purchase, says the New
York Tribune. Let me have five cents
worth OF cherries" said a man the
other day, pointing to loose pile of
the little red fruit. las much as all
that" exclaimed the street merchant,
and not for single minute did he
cease busting bunch of bananas. The
intending purchaser waited moment.

his request to another stand. well.

RATES ARe REASONABLE.


False Impression Corrected Pan
American Exposition Railroad Fares
and Hotel Rates Low rs Could be
Expected.
Buffalo, N. Y, July S0.-A Joint
meeting Of railway passenger agents.
hotel and newspaper men was held
this afternoon with the view OF adopt
ing some means for correcting so far
as possible the impression that APP
pears to prevail at distant points that
railway rates to the Pan-American Ex-
position are high and that hotel rates
in Buffalo are excessive. The confer
ence revealed the fact that Buffalo can
accommodate two hundred thousand
visitors in its private houses and no
tells at rates ranging from fifty cents
to two dollars per night, and that no
one need pay more than one dollar
for first-class lodging in private
house. 1t was also shown that the
railroad rate Is lower than for any
former exposition for five, ten or
fifteen day ticket, according to dis
lance, being at the rate OF one fare
plus one dollar for the round trip,
from all parts of the country. The
Niagara Falls cheap, one-day special
excursions of former years, when
trains were overcrowded and everyone
subjected to great discomfort, are re-
membered only so far as the low rate
Is concerned and this is quoted as
showing what might be done. The
passenger agents assert that the pres
emit half rates are as low as can rea-
sonably be expected. An extension OF
the present limit has been looked for,
as 1t gives too short time for anyone
TO see the big exposition, but 1t has
not yet been modified. Other points
which the representatives of the pub
fishers association will lay stress
upon are that the Exposition is COM
pleted in all details and that both
Buffalo and the Exposition are well
policed and as free from dangerous
characters as any city in the country.
A joint committee was appointed ito
deal with questions affecting the Ex-
position and the proper welcome and
care OF guests. The Exposition has
had in operation for some time free
bureau OF information for the conve-
nience Of intending visitors.

SPECTACULAR IDiocY.

For a newspaper which, in the face
of multiform embarrassments, still
claims to be democratic" the Mem
phis Commercial-Appeal shows a deal
of sense. Commenting on the evil
dence, flowing in from every quarter,
that the people of Arkansas are
ashamed of its legislature" on ac-
count of its reasonable resolutions
siding with the Filipino rebels, the
Memphis paper says:
This sympathy for the Tagals is one
Of those spectacular idiocies that have
been dignified by the name of policies
and which have led the democratic
party to disgrace and defeat. The
idea seems to prevail that this war in
some way or other is republican wal
exclusively, and that to tndorse it is
to indorse the republican party. The
idea seems to prevail that to denounce
the effort to subdue the bandits in the
Philippines is the way to down the re
publican party and to exalt the demo
cratic party. Never was greater error

A BIG FIGHT AHEAD.

Hon. Sidney A. Foster, in his own
direct and straightforward way of do
ing things, announces his candidacy
for the republican nomination of gov
ernor. Mr.. Fosters announcement is
published elsewhere and is calculated
to throw the CUMMING forces into a
state Of more or less CONSERVATION as
they had hoped to suppress other can
didates at the state capital and pre-
sent solid front with their favorite
in the state convention. Mr.. Fosters
announcement will, in all probability,
cause Hon. LATE Young and possibly
others at Des Moines to enter the gu
bernatorial race. This means that the
coming republican state convention
will see the biggest light on the gov
ernorship that has been witnessed in
iowa for many years. 1t is clearly ev.
ident that Mr., Cummins is seeking the
governship solely as a stepping stone
to the United States senate. 1t re.
mains to be seen whether Governor
Shaw, Congressman Lacey, Congress
man Hepburn and other Iowa states
men who have an ambition to occupy
a seat in the United States senate
will quietly lie down and permit Mr.
4 Cummins to play his game of politics
to successful conclusion. At this
writing it looks as if the republican
nomination for governor in Iowa this
year will prove to be one of the most
exciting and intensely interesting con
tests ever witnessed in the state.

GOOD WORK.
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
The republican city convention
last night, did good work. From a
field of unusually strong candidates,
1t selected ticket that will prove
inyincible and which will be elected
without single exception on the
18th day of March next. The CON
vention was marked not only by en-
thusiasm and entire harmony, but al
so by a spirit of determined resolu.
ton that no mistake should be made,
and that the republican organization
would go before the people with a
ticket entitled to the respect and Wig
orous support of all citizens who are
in favor of good municipal govern
ment. The nomination OF DR.. S. A.
Spilman, for mayor by reclamation,
was an indication of the general har-
mony and unanimity of feeling pre-
vailing. The resolutions presented
to the convention and adopted by
unanimous vote are exceedingly
strong, straightforward and business
like. They should be carefully not.
ed and read by every voter as reflect,
ing the sentiment of the republican
city convention and as pledging the
candidates of that convention to ACT
upon their letter and spirit, wher
elected to office as they will be or
the 25th day of March. The ticket
named last night is one which moi
only inspires confidence. but which
gives positive assurance that the
affairs of this city will be wisely, eco
nomically and legally conducted dur
/ ing the next two years.
