Claus Sprieckls, the sugar king,
just made a San Francisco capt.
alist pay 10000 900 for being diso-
bliging. The capitalist is presi-
dent Of a gas and electric COM
pany. Smoke from the companys
plant annoyed Mr.. Spreckels and
he went to the president and ask
ed him to abate the nuisance. The
president was extremely curt to
MIR. Spreckles. To avenge himself
for the affront put upon him,
Spreckels established rival gas
and electric plant at cost OF ST.
100000 and began cutting rates.
Prices were brought down to one
fourth what they were when the
old company had the monopoly.
At length the man went to Mr..
Spreckels and begged for quarter.
Spreckels' Germs were to be
bought out st the price Of $6,ooo,-
600 which were agreed to.

Mr.. Jerome,s Tobacco Habit.

In his young and impecunious days
District Attorney Jerome, of New York,
now prominently mentioned 1or gov
ernor, was assistant in the office Of
which he is now head. Then, as now,
Jerome was a great smoker. He used
to buy cheap brand of cigars of a
none too delicate quality from Mas
sau street dealer. AS bonus to a
steady patron and incidentally with
the hope of getting Jerome to buy the
more expensive brand the willy dealer
would occasionally give him per-
fecto. He didn't catch his man, how

fecto to the first friend he met.

Nuts for Democratic Crackers.

Sifted to the bottom, these charges
of Republican extravaganza merely
show that national expenditures are
steadily growing, and that they will
continue to grow, no matter what ad-
ministration comes into power. Dem
ocratic "keynoters" clamor vaguely
for Economy" But they are much
too cautious to specify the economies
they will make. Are they willing to
abandon our programme of naval de-
velopment, to reduce the army, to
abandon the Panama canal, to cut
down pension expenditures, to for
swear river and harbor improve
ments, or to abolish the rural free de-
livery service? The Democratic plat
form squirms and doubles on all these
subjects, and finally finds courage
enough to say that army expenditure
should be cut to "a point historically
demonstrated to be safe and suffl-
cient." That is the single dubious
economy the Democratic party is can
did enough to promise. When Mr..
Davis and the World again assall Re-
publican extravaganza" they would
