The It'll EITEM GREW

An item went the round of the news
papers recently to the effect that some
body or other in Chicago had suggest
ed that pigs be employed as scavengers
in the city streets.
1t was not taken seriously, and was
circulated because it was so absurdly
unique But it appears that some dill
gent correspondent Of a German news
paper translated all that was said
about pigs as scayengers added GER
tain embellishments of his own and ca
bled the stuff to his paper in Germany.
Therefore the Germans have a new
argument against American pork. One
Berlin newspaper accuses Chicago of
the intention of employing hogs as
seaYengers because the city is bank
rupt and can not pay street cleaners.
Chicago's plan is, it says, to get lean
hogs let them get fat on city refuse,
Kill them and sell the meat to benefit
the city treasury. It is also remarked
that each pig turned loose by the city
is to have branded on its side the name
Of a ward and an alderman.
The next step was for an American
reporter to translate the German sto-
ries into English and send them to
Chicago, What wonder that the Chi
cago Council is angry!

THE RANSOM FOR MISS STONE
The purpose of raising the ransom
money demanded by brigands for the
release of Miss Ellen NJ. Stone, the
American Board missionary, has met
with general approval and ready re-
Spouse. The ethical question as to
what effect the paying Of a large sum
of money to outlaws may have in re-
lation to the safety Of other mission
aries and travellers is waived for the
time being, and no one has any criti-
cisms to offer. If the government has
seen its way clear to guarantee the
payment Of the ransom, so much the
better. It can call the nation RESPONSE
bic for the outrage to account later.
The impression that Miss Stone was
in great danger. became fixed and her
friends did what was natural and, in ae-
cordance with most views, right. There
is still a great deal of mystery about
the abduction. It is reported from the
Continent that some believe that the
abduction was planned by the Mace
DOMAIN revOlutionists to embarrass the
Sultan. 1t is doubtful whether the or
igin of the plot will ever be traced.
Detectives in this enlightened land
know well how completely abductors
can cover their tracks.

DEMOCRATS MAY MAKE
MAYOR FIGHT IN CAUCUSES

If the strongly-worded expressions
of some Worcester delegates who as
sembled in the Democratic conventions
Monday stand for anything, there is a
determination that Mayor Philip j.
O'Conneu shall not be renominated,
except he is able to carry the Demo-
cratic war caucuses in a fight
The complaints of the mayors
policy frankly expressed by the work
ers in their conversation with each
other were as numerous as the in
stances in which he has bestowed
patronage.
Especially was there criticism be-
cause the mayor had not given a
small office to some person who would
represent the Swedish voters. An
other grievance much heard was his
alleged failure to give the property
owners on Mechanic Street the pave
ment which the city fathers have
authorized.
There is little doubt but that the
active Democracy is unhesitatingly
determined not to strew rose leaves
along the path of Mayor OConnelrs

TELEPHONE SERVICE

service for something over 10 minutes
about O'Clock last night. Innumer-

Those who sought other telephones to
register a protest were confronted
with the same conditions in evidence
at home.
When matters were finally righted, IT
was found that a fuse in the main

responsible for the trouble. During

representatives of the electrical de-
partment, it was impossible to get

NO USE FOR YELLOW JOURNALS

NO USE FOR YELLOW JOURNALS
The New York Times makes consid-
cradle sport of the fact that the State
House reporters in Boston told Sena-
tor Hanna that they were not allowed
to read certain New York yellow jour
nails. The story. comes from the Trans
cript
The New York Times says:
IF Boston reporters not only ask
but heed advice as to the newspapers
they can with propriety peruse their
dissimilarity from reporters elsewhere
is most remarkable-vastly more re-
markable, all things taken into account,
than is the difference between ordinary
BostOnians and the ordinary inhabitant
Of other places, and that is by no
means slight Yet The Transcript
makes its disclosure without any ap-
parent realization of the excitement it
is calculated to produce. In another
paper we would be on our guard
against a joke, but The Transcript
never jokes, and it must be therefore
that the Boston reporters refrain from
reading, or even looking at, papers dis
tasteful to their employers. For some
( purposes such reporters might be very
useful, but the species is, and always
/ will be, we are sure, confined TO that
l one part Of Massachusetts Bay"
The Times in its glee forgets one
thing. The Boston reporter has no pro-
! fessional use for the New York yellow
journals. They give no assistance in
his business and no news which is Of
value. The papers that a Boston news
paper man would read are such papers
as the Times and Sun. excepting for
matters Of special interest.
There is no special mark OF virtue to
/ the Boston newspaper reporter that he
