High Rent in Chicago.

The following article was hand.
ed to us by one Of our subscrib.
ers with a REQUEST to publish it.
The article is copied from the
Chicago American:
The Cash Buyers Union First
National Cooperative Society
has leased from Isaac F. Rubel
the Industrial Building at the
northeast corner Of Jackson
boulevard and Green street for
ten years from Jan. l, at an ag-
gregate rental of $4,000, be-
ing at the rate OF $37, 900 annu-
ally. The lease was negotiated
by James H. Van Vlissingen 4
Co.
This is probably the largest
lease ever entered into on the
West Side and is certainly the
largest ever made on property in
that section. Construction upon
the building is but a little more
than begun, the walls being up
one story.
FINE STRUCTURE FOR WEST SIDE.
The building will be eight sto-
ries and basement high and will
front 1875 feet on Jackson boule-
ward and 1876 feet on Green
street. It is probably the best
building from the standpoint Of
construction that has ever been
erected in that section.
The building is in reality divid-
ed into three sections, two main
parts with a fire-proof corridor,
the latter extending through the
center OF the entire building from
the front to the rear and from
the basement to the roof, with
heavy brick walls on either side,
and in this corridor are the, ele-
vators and stairways. There
are double fire doors at all open
ings, and thus tenants and occu-
pants are in a great measure
sale from panic or danger in case
offire.
SHOWS ENORMOUS EXPANSION.
After a prosperous existence of
nearly twenty years the Cash
Buyers Union was rechartered
sixteen months ago as a CO.
operative society, with a capital
stock OF $5,OOO,OCO, and the
preferred stock has been sold ex-
tensively to the general public at
the par value of $40 share on
the society's guaranty Of a divi-
dend OF 5 per cent. Thus far the
dividends have been 10 per cent.
Julius Kahn, who has had vast
experience in the maiIorder bust
ness, is the president Of the So
ciety. The society began bust
ness IN a seven-stOry building in
West Van Buren, street. but soon
outgrew it's quarters, and anoth-
er building was secured with Co.
600 square feet Of floor space.
Even this was not sufficient. and
the present lease marks another
step in the growth ofthe society.

dent Cleveland, as against four months
and twenty days that it took the Repub-
licans to pass the Dingley bill after the
inauguration of President Mckinley.
No less than 634 amendments were
made to the Wilson bill before it was
passed-and then, despite this enormous
number Of patches to make the bill suit
all Democrats, President Cleveland view
ed it with the utmost disappointment"
and said that it was marked with places
"where the deadly blight of treason has
blasted the counsels of the brave in
their hour of might" The colossal fail
ure Of this bill to produce enough reve-
nue. to run the government, as well as the
general blow it inflicted on the industries
of the country, thereby driving thousands
OF men out of employment, was i'll sharp
contrast to the success of the Dingley
bill i'll not only producing enough reve-
nue. but in giving employment to thou
sands of people out of work, and i'll re-
storing good times to the country.

DEMOCRATIC ANARCHIST.
Preached by an 1ncen-
diary "Nigger" Halter.

diary NJSRer''
If Democracy has returned to san
ity," as Grover Cleveland asserts, it is
certain the party has not yet purged it
self of something even worse than insan-
ity. Anarchists are greater curse to
any community than lunatics, for luna
tics are often harmless to society; but
anarchists. by their words and deeds, are
always a menace. Take the case of Con-
gresham J. Il. Heflin, for instance. lie
is an Albanian with 4 mouth more dam
gerous than a dozen Czolgoszes. The as
sassin Of President Mckinley did not
openly preach anarchism before carrying
out his purpose and thereby incite 9th
ers to Stay public men. Hetlin is more
cowardly. In a recent speech at Tuske-
gee Ala, the home of Booker L. Wash
ington, and the negro school conducted
by him, Hefin said:
"There they sat, Roosevelt and Booker,
and if CzolgosZ or one of his kind had
thrown a bomb under the table no great
harm would have been done the coun-
try"
OF the report that Booker Washington
was going to help to beat him for cleo
ton to Congress, Hefiin said:
III
it will be one time l will ask him to step
cut. / will ask him to hands off, and
YOU know we have way of influencing
negroes down here
Hefin. who succeeded Congressman
Thompson, had Il fight with his Republi-
can opponent Captain B. w. Walker, on
Sunday. Smarting under this, he attack
ed Walker fercely in his speech. He de-
I L.. al tan Nnf1f
Missing at the feet of honest, upright
Democrats" He said it was the desire
of the Republicans to have Walker sent
to Congress so they could say: Here's
friend of Booker Washington, and it
shows how he is looked upon down there
and how the people uphold him."
IF Parker is elected President" he
said, "and Booker Washington goes to
Washington, you will find him eating in
the kitchen instead of the dining ROOM"
Hefiin said he refused to meet Walker
in Joint debate because that would have
recognized him as his equal. He added:
81 do not recognize any black and tan
as my equal / will not lower myself to
the level of q black and tan who mingles
on equal terms with negroes"
1t avals Hefin nothing to say his
bomb talk was intended to be jocular.
The fact remains that it was incendiary
language, such as is made criminal by
the anti-anarchist law recently passed by
Congress- The Democratic party has
much to answer for, and unless it muz-
zlcs such blatant ''nigger" haters as
Heflin it may have more crimes lai1 at
its doors. Hefin is one of the leaders
of the party in the South, and his utter
ances are an indication that Democracy
is, at least. not ''safe," even if it is now
"sane," as Mr.. Cleveland would have the
people believe.

DEMOCRATIC INDIGESTION.
Country Has Suffered Because of 1t
When that Party Was in Power.

Whenever the Democratic party has
had chance at power its course has
been like that of the donkey in the fable
which died of starvation while trying to
decide which to eat first, its oats or its
hay.
1t was this way when Buchanan was
President, and could not make up his
mind whether or not to suppress by force
the secession movement in the South,
and so postponed having anything done
until Lincoln could become President
This dilatory policy was largely respon-
sible for the enormous cost in money and
lives of suppressing the rebellion.
When Cleveland was President the
country suffered quite as much from ag-
onizing uncertainty as to what the Demo
Gratis were really going to do, as from the
actual evils that they did do. On Meth
er the tariff nor on the money question
was there any unity of opinion amongst
the Democrats, and never was it posi-
BILE to forecast just what would be done.
The Democrats took one year and five
months to work up and pass their vii
| son bill after the inauguration of Presi-

Not Fit to Govern.

When Grover Cleveland was elected
President the second time the first thing
he did was to withdraw from tie Senate
the treaty for the annexation OF Hawaii
and order the American flag there to be
hauled down. The Democratic party APP
proved this action as brave and patr-
otto. He prevented annexation as long
as he could and the Democratic party
applauded every step he took.
Finally, in the second year Of McKin-
ley's administration annexation was com
pIeted and the islands entered on new
career of prosperity. Now no Demo
cratic speaker would dare to advocate
the surrender or evacuation Of Hawaii.
A few years hence it will be the same
with the Philippines.
A party that opposes extending the
area of liberty and that advocates haul
ing down the American flag where it has
been legally and rightfully raised is not
fit to be entrusted with the administra-
ton of the government.

Poverty in Free.Trade England.

1t was stated in the Manchester City
Council few days ago that 10000 to
$4,000 people in that city were ON the
verge of starvation and that similar CON
ditions prevailed in London and othe.
large cities of the United Kingdom. Jo-
seph Chamberlain has just stated in a
speech that there are 100000 fewer la
borers in the United Kingdom now than
in 1851 and that the capital of the farm
ers has fallen $1,000 that 49,
OCO, 600 people are underfed, while Amer
lea, Germany and other foreign countries
are prospecting. Neither the present in
dustrial condition of free trade England,
nor the condition OF the United States
when it got dose of free trade during
the last Democratic administration an
1893 1897, offers any promise of good
that could be wrought by Democratic VIC
tory in 1904.

DEMOCRATS AT WAR.


Hearst's Paper Makes Savage Attack
on Ex-Secretary OIney.
The wake on the Democratic ticket of
1904 has begun, although it is some days
before the day set for the official funeral.
Among the protesting mourners, Hearst's
New York American attracts mOmentary
attention by the following truculent howl.
There is copied here only the opening
notes of the performance:
According to the lttle-soue(P Oney,
Attorney General in Cleveland's cabinet,
the war with Spain was a comical blum
der, and the men that gave their lives
for the freeing of Cuba were fools that
had much better have stayed at home
Mr.. Olney, by some unaccounta bic
error of the Democratic managers in this
campaign. has been making speeches in
behalf of Judge Parker, and this noble
sentiment is one of the things that he
has been saying.
AT Cooper Union last night, to
meeting called under the auspices OF
Democracy, he spoke with a nasty sheer
of our needless scrimmage with Spain
over Cuba" and again, later in his re-
marks, sneered at what he called in his
pleasant way that development of jingo-
ism and militarism which brought on the
scrap with Spain
IF MIR. OLNEY HAD BEEN EN-
GAGGED TO MAKE VOTES FOR MR..
ROOSEVELT HE COULD NOT POS
SIBLY HAVE HIT UPON A BET
TER WAY"
This criticism might we'll be applied,
by the Democrats, to Mr.. Olney's entire
Cooper Union speech. In his comments
upon the Republican foreign policy, the
Philippine question and its financial
management, Mr.. Olney touched, with a
rash hand, the nerves Of national honor
and pride. 1t was sure way to pro-
duce a vast crop OF voters for Roose-
Welt. 1t is admitted that Olney spoke to
Il silent house. 1t is not surprising.
