Non Productive Land Yields Exceed
ingly Large Annuity.
A place of land 31x51 feet in New
York City was leased the other day
for twenty years at an annual rental
of $4,000. 1t was bought short time
ago for 100000. This $4,000 a year is
added to the cost Of doing business
by additions to the cost Of goods and
the public pays it. The owner does
nothing for society, did not even build
a shanty on 1.-THE lessee having to
do that. This is one Of the ways that
labor is robbed-but so icunningly hid
that but few see it. Thousands of mil
lions annually are thus put onto the
working classes for the benefit OF the
drones. Under cooperation such things
would be, impossible, and the working
people would be the gamers to. that
extent. The SINNERS hesitate at no
scheme to get the results Of labor
without themselves producing. The
working u. people should establish .
system that Will prevent the exploita-
sIt1o11.

German Gunboat Thoroughly
Did the Business.
DECIDED ULTIMATUM RENDERED.
The Crew Of the Gunboat Fled
Ashore.
IT IS OFFICIALLY NONE OF OUR BUSINESS

Berlin, sept. S.-'rhe Martin minis
try has given out the following official
report of the sinking of the Firminist
gunboat Crete A Pierrrot:
Captain Eckermann of the Panther
received orders to capture the pratt
cal gunboat Crete A Pierrot. The Pan
ther went from Port Au Prince to
Gonaives, where it completely sur
prised the Crete A Pierrot. The Ger
man commandant sent the following
ultimatum:
Strike your colors within fifteen
minutes and disembark from your ship
without undertaking any defensive
measures whatever otherwise an i'm
mediate attack will follow
"The Panther had already cleared
for action. The Crete A Pierrot hauled
down her flag within the allotted time
and the crew disembarked. The Pan
ther then intended to take the Crete A
Pierrot in tow, but an explosion in her
aft powder magazine soon occurred,
which evidently was effected by the
crew of the Crete A Pierrot The ex-
plosion destroyed the stern and set the
vessel on fire, rendering taking her in
tow impossible, especially as further
explosions followed. AS this was re-
garded as a hostile act and as the
guns afore were still in condition, the
Panther's captain caused the forward
magazine 10 be exploded through
cannonade. After this was exploded,
the Crete A Pierrot broke up and sank.
The admiral was on board with the
rebels.

Wilkesbarre. Pa. Sept. s.-Two Ital-

Sistno Van Costello, left their homes
in Sawyersville today to go hunting.
AS they approached the Harry L. col
liery they were held up by pickets who
mistook them for armed non-union
men going to work. Van Costello was
shot in the leg and his brains were
beaten out with stones and clubs. His
companion was beaten so that his life
is despaired of.
The friends of the dead Italians
threaten to kill the men who COM

the lookup at Edwardsville, where
Hiram Fischer is confined. The pris-

The president said he was glad to be

mems brotherhood was the result
which naturally comes from the appl

sense to secure work Organized labor
never made an unreasonable request
of him and If it had he would have de-
MED it. In speaking of the appoint
ment of Grand Master Sargent to be
commissioner general of immigration
the president said it was one of the
most satisfactory appointments to him
and to the public he had ever made;
that Mr.. Sargent had a hard body and
Ect soft head.
John +. McNamee, of Columbus,
Ohio, one of the grand officers and a
democratic member of the legislature,
moved the degree of grand honorary
membership be conferred upon Presi-
dent Roosevelt. The motion was re-
feired 10 the committee on constitu
tion and by laws, whose recommends
ton was unanimous that the motion
be accepted. The report of the COM
mittee was adopted by rising, unani
nous vote amid cheering.
The president thanked the conven-
tion for the compliment and Grand
Master Sargent then gave him the pass
which admits him to all meetings of
the brotherhood.
The brotherhood adjourned until to-
morrow and the public was then admit

ident's address.

no department of the fair that is not
well filled with choice displays that
show the recent progress made in all
branches of industrial activity. Of par
ticular note this year are the cattle

buildings devoted to these depart

MAINE ELECTION.
The Democrats Have Hope of Carry
ing One District.

Bangor, Maine, Sept. S.-The eyes
Of the nation are on Maine. The re-
suit Of the election in this state today
will be significant. 1t is the straw
that will tell which way the political
wind is blowing. II the republican
majority should be light the democrats
Of the country will CONSIDER it an
omen Of good, while, on the other hand,
should the majority be heavy, the
country will take it as an indication
that the people are satisfied with the
national administration. The republi-
cans declare that Governor Hill will
be reelected by the largest majority
ever polled in the state.
The close of the campaign came Sat
urday with political gatherings in
nearly every city and town in the
state. This year the canvass has been
unusually vigorous, particularly on the
part OF the democrats. The work of
arousing the voters began nearly a
month ago and there has been much
of the old time enthusiasm and fire
works. The democrats entertain hope
Of electing a congressman. The d.strict
wherein they locate the possibility is
the one once represented by Mr.. Reed.
and now represented by Amos L. Allen,
who for several years was Speaker
Reeds private secretary.

WON'T AFFECT US.
President Ripley Says Albuquerque
Need Not ba Worried.
CUTOFF WILL DO NO HARM.


There is no reason why the people
of Albuquerque should be alarmed on
account of the Santa Fe short cut,
building over the Abo pass and miss
ing that CITY," said President Ripley,
in letter to friend. That the road
will be built over Abo pass is definitely
known, but it may be one, two or four
years yet. Mr. Ripley intimates that
the road will be built sooner or later
and that Abo will get it.
Mr.. Ripley, in his letter, gives rea-
sons why Albuquerque will not be af-
fected materially. He states that the
shops, upon which the city depends to a
considerable extent, will never be
moved. Only the through extreme
eastern freight, passenger and mail
business will be handled over the
short cut. The Rock Island has built
a road east of the mountains and has
practical control of the business of
that district. A train will run daily to
make connections with the short cut
trains, and bring back a part of the
business which heretofore came to Al
buquerque. but at present is lost. 1t
will affect the mercantile and banking
business Of the city especially.
When the Santa Fc built the EN-
poria-Kansas City short cut and left
Topeka out in the cold, the people of
Topeka were panic stricken, but the
expected loss caused by the short cut
did not materialiZe and Topeka was
not affected in the least. The present
circumstances are similar to those
which existed in Topeka.
Albuquerque railroad prospects were
never brighter than they are at pres
ent.
The Albuquerque Eastern will be
built. The Durango line will be built
and the Santa Fe Central will extend
its line from Torrance east to Roswell,
and it is said that all of these branches
will merge into system and will even
tually come under control of the Rock
Island.
New developments are occurrinc
that substantiate this theory.

DRUGGISTS MEET.
Golden Jubilee of the Association in
philadelphia.

Philadelphia Sept. S.-More than l..
parts of the union and representing
the seventy-five thousand persons en-
gagged in that business in the United
States, are gathered in Philadelphia.
for the golden jubilee convention of
the American Pharmaceutical associa-
ton.
The gathering is the most important
of its kind ever held in America, and
the pharmaceutical associations of
Germany England and Ireland, are
represented by fraternal delegates.
Probably the most interesting feature
of the convention is the exhibition in
Horticultural hail. This exhibition
consists of large display illustrating
in comprehensive way the progress
of the pharmaceutical association. The
exhibits include almost everything
found on the druggists shelves, rang
ing from the horse leech, which fifty
years ago was considered an indispen-
sable part of the stock of every drug
gist, to adrenolin and other late discov-
cries in pharmacy.
The sessions formally opened today
in the assembly room of the Hotel
Walton and will continue until next
Friday. The officers in charge are
Henry NJ. Whelpley, of st. Louis, presi-
dent; and Charles Caspari, Jr, of New
York, secretary.
