HARRlsoN,s OPPORTUNITY.

For the past few days the mayor and
police force of Chicago have been un-
der the lime light. They are more on
trial before the bar of public opinion
than the warning street car magnates
and strikers The impulse of interest
which turns the public eye Chicago
ward is not so much awakened by the
strike and its cause as by a desire 10
learn whether the police is to become
silent partner In the anarchy that ap-
pears to be conconlitant of strikes IN
general, or is to repress riot and law
lessness with an iron hand. In prev
ious strikes the Chicago police has been
notably inefficient. not because of
weakness or incapacity, but because OF
local political aspirations and condi.-
lions. The Chicago police force can
Keep order and protect the cars If the
mayor and the chief Of police see fit to
issue the order.
It is not alone the differences or the
rights and wrongs of street railways or
strikers that is to be considered. The
transit lines are necessary to the well
fare and comfort of the public and the
transaction of the ordinary affairs of
life in q city like Chicago. Their pa
irons have a right to demand that the
company operate its cars and that the
cars be protected by the police. as
public necessity. The politics OF
strikes has become complicated. The
mayor must now choose between the
vote Of the strikers and the vote OF the
multitude OF men to whom the street
car service is RS absolutely necessary
as the power of locomotion.
Mayor Harrison has his opportunity
to favor riot by inaction and hold the
good will Of those who make disorder a
means to an end, or to repress lawless-
ness and make friends among the aver
age citizens.

would seem that the presidential bee.

One of the greatest swindles ever per-
petrated on the religious people of

by the interior department Of the Uni

claim that 1t will be irrigated by the
government, and in a few years will be
worth twenty times what people are
now paying for 1t. The company has
become so bold in it's operations that
the federal government is ready to
take a hand in the promotion business.
The scheme has been shrewdly worked.

fact that the land they were cult.

it clear that the land is extracrdi-

great variety of crops. and the

immigration.

cure better resnlts in the variety
