que Sc les imponga una contri-

Parece que en- Ponce viene pasando
algo exactamente igual 10 ocurrido
en- San Juan con los vendedores ambu-
lantes.
Seg1n tenemos entendido sc les inn
pone una contribution por vender

No PMncho, No Pablo Hete, y 4 no

Creemos muy justa la protesta de
los vendedores ambulantes. ST en- la
Capital, son muchos los infelices que
ganan su vida en- aquel trabaio, en-
Ponce puede que sea doble ell n1mero.
Aquf tanto ell Alcalde como ell Ayun-
tamiento, atendieron efcazmente al
clamor de esos pobres y no desoyeron
la yoz de la prensa.
De ahf que tai contribution desapa-
reciera, pues como decfa ell Alcalde
lego & darse ell case de que muchas
personas Sc presentaran llorando en-
sus oficinas para pedirle que los libra
ra de los rematistas, 8 del alcance de
del arbitrio, 10 que equiyalfa librar-
las del hambre, siendo asi que la ma
yorfa de esas personas vendia minu-
cias, que solo alcanzaban q producir-
les unos centavos con los cuales, de Gu
brlr ell lmpuesto, Sc quedaban sin CO.

Nj mas nj menos debe ocurrir en-
Ponce con la generalidad de los yende-
dores ambulantes.
Ell deber de las autoridades, cuando
para elias no es un misterio ell males
tar del pueblo, nos parece que fuera
mas levantado 81 Sc dirigiera 4 aliviar
la situaci6n de ese pueblo y no 4 hacer-
la mas penosa.
ST ell Alcalde y ell Ayuntamiento de
Ponce Sc tijan en- este, y quieren hacer

This is the second time that the fun

FIRE FROM LIGHTNING.
Williamsburg Has $500 Damages
in Barns and Ice House.

ottawa, Ks, Aug. THE Herald
says: Lighting caused a fire loss OF
$500 at Williamsburg last night and
placed the entire town in peril of de-
struction.
At two o'clock in the morning light
ming struck one of the large barns be-
longing to w. S. Finley and located
close to the Williamsburg bank build
ing. From the first barn the fire spread
to similar structure adjoining, also
owned by Mr.. Finley, and from this the
flames were communicated TO the Fin
ley ice house. All three buildings were
consumed. The horses were removed
from the barns. but nothing else was
saved. The barns contained a quantity
of hay and other feed, besides buggies
and implements. The property was in
sured. presumably for two-thirds its
value.
When the fire was discovered there
seemed no hope of saving the out
buildings and the citizens gave their
attention to protecting the bank Lines
of men passed buckets from handy
wells, and in this way the fire was
fought back from the bank The flames
were not in control until six o'clock in
the morning
