LIVING I'M LONDON.
It Is Not n Good Place For "A Man or
Small Iacome.

1t Is Not n Good Place For Nan or
Small Iacome.
An American who in the classical
language of his country is at pr, sent
located" in London wants TO lnow
whether any city in the world is quite
so piggardly as our town. lie has
been going the round of the London
restaurants and has encomtCyed g. Tie
management OF them a spirit which
diSIreSSes him. There Is. TO acu.n
WITH" he says. "a charge of from two
pence TO siXpence FOR guarding your
hat and coat In the cloakroom. and a
tip i'm addition is expected. You want
TO wash your handS-another twopence
or another siXpence and another tip.
You take up the menu. and. behold,
there is nm intimation that a charge OF
threepence each person will be made
under the guise Of table money The
charge varies according 70 the nature
OF the place. Threepence is the lowest
and sixpence perhaps the average. At
great many restaurants IL is l shil-
ling and in at least two that have Wis
tied Is. Cd. The only difference is
that in the lower priced restaurants it
Is called table money' and in tue high
er priced ones placed under the capti-
waiting heading of convert To my
mind, an entrance fee frankly demand
ed at the door would Ice much less Of
fensive than to find yourself asked at
the end Of a dinner to pay for the trou-
bic and expense of cleaning up the cut
lery you have used"
His conclusion OF the whole matter is
that London lives by imposing fixed
tariff on the accessories that in every
other city ! have ever been TO are
thrown In gratis" and he thinks that
being a gentleman is one of the most
expensive professions an Englshman
can have. He declares ii to be an ut
ter delusiOn that London is cheap
place to live IN. "For the poor man."
he says. the man whose income Is less
than tSOO a year there is no city where
less can be had in the way Of comforts
and even the necessities of life. In
New York ii is only the Injuries that
cost. The expenses OF everyday living
may be as great or as small rs one
cares to make them. New York. in
fact is laid out for the poor man.
From the transportation system to the
price of such fundamental charges on
the household treasury as Goal. ice.

most everything conspires TO bring him
in a good return for very small out
lay. All these things are cheaper in
New York than I'm London."-London

Oklahoma City, Ok, Aug. 20. -
The following crop and weather re
por has been ISSUED by the weather
bureau in Oklahoma City.
Hot and dry weather prevailed
over the section last week, the only
exception being scattered showers
over the Chickasaw and Choctaw
nations August IL, The showers
of the preceding week placed the
ground in good condition and plow.
ing progressed over nearly all por-
tions of the section. Hay making
continues with good yields report
ed. Early corn is being cut and
shocked; the late corn is about
made, and is doing well, except IN
the western division, where it needs
more rain to properly mature; some
damage from hot winds is noted in
few counties.
Broom corn, cane, alfalfa and
castor beans are being secnred,
with fair to good yields repoyted.
Cotton is maturing rapidly, and
picking is in progress; son { upland
cotton has been damaged by the bot
winds, but the bottom land cotton
is IN good condition; generally the
prospect continues good for large
yield, of good quality; boil worms
and sharpshooters are causing dam
age in the southern portion of the
Indian territory. Plsnting of late
pOtatOes has been almost completed
and turDips and rye are being sown;
the late potatoes are coming up
family wei but would be benefited
by miD. Grass contiRnes fairly
good, and stock continnes to do

fitted by the recent showers. Mel
ons and vegetables are doing well,
and coming To the market in large
quantities.

the Tribune has discovered them,
and has also discovered that they
are the Bone and Slnew of q
country's greatness, when properly
managed" Great God what gaul,
what dense Ignorance or meanness
one or the other. .Jpst think of it,
all OF the late Republican platforms
have condemned trusts, and now the
Tribune has discovered that they
are good things to have. ave are
from MisSOur i, Bro, and YOU will
have to show us" We have al.
ways said that the Republican party
could not and would mot do one
thing against trusts, frons the fact
that they have ever been controlled
by the money power which is the
greatest trust of them all, and again
the Republican party stands for a
high tariff which is trust breeder.
This editorial is borrowed. Bird
Mcclure said he had rather trust
a trust than Democrat. Mark
Hanna says theS are no trusts, but
if there was any they would be a
good thing. And the money
power says we(the money power)are
the bone and sinew of the govern
ment. So there is where the Tri,
bune got his idea that they were
good. Now brother tell us why
you condemn trnsts and defend
them at the same time. Your own
words condemn you. Go and do
like Judas, hang yourself, people
will think more of you.
