found desirable should be made by the friends of
American industry, and never by the enemies of

to note them we'll Look at this
mortgage; look at this letter; look
at these notes. Different as they
are in other respects, in one they
are all alike, and thatis in the pic
lures upon them. See the pictures!
Look at that rooster! Gaze upon
those hens! There's nothing to
hinder the view. No feathers are in
the way. They don't average one
tail feather apiece, nor as much as
that on their wings. They're so
lean that not one has body thicker
than its leg ought to be; and look at
their sad and heart broken express
ions. They are starving, gentle
men Of the jury; dying an agonizing
death by starvation. Do you see
anything in these pictured birds
that reminds you of the reality pre-
sented by my client here? I do
gentlemen o; the jury, I do. The
words OF description printed by the
company beneath the pictures are,
fattened on Brown & Co. straw
well, my client has been 'fatten-
ed on Brown & Co. straw too. He
has lost his team, his harness, his
wagon! All his labor for the last
two years has been cast into the in
satlable nav OF the chicken-fatten-
ers, and he is now before you pluck
ed, lean and sorry-looking, dressed
in rags and broken in spirit, wait
ing for the crowning reward of his
labors by having you, gentlemen,
send him to the penltenti tiary for
year or SO. Will you do it?
Judge Bangs paused long enough
to wipe the place where the tear Of
tender pathy for his client ought
to be. OF course, the tear wasn't
there, but the wiping looked well.
Then he continued:
You see, gentlemen, pictured
plainly here, the condition the vic
tins of Brown & Co. are in when
the fattening has been completed,
and if you will turn your eyes for a
moment on the prisoner at the bar
you will note that he has ample rea-
son to envy even this mournful roos-
ter pictured here! Will you Cypress
him further, gentlemen of the jury?
| have lived and worked among you
for years, my friends have looked
into your eyes and clasped your
hands, and know you all we'll. l
know you will set my client free.n
And sure enough they did, with
out leaving their seats.

THE CITY ELECTION.
Republicans Have Everything
Their Own Way.

Tuesdays city election was about
the quietest ever held in this city.
Little interest was shown on either
side, but the republicans got out
and voted, while the other folks
staid at home or attended to busi-
ness duties. Then, too, there Was
the usual coterie of so-called demo-
Gratis who voted the republican tick
ct. These conditions gave about
everything to the G. 0. p. disciples

in detail by the returns from the
various wards:

margin. Blot out the First ward
and you couldn't find the democratic

in the past. We hope to see the
condition changed somewhat under
