A Victory for the People.

A dispatch says: AFTER contest
lasting five days the Republican or
ganixation' led by Insurance Com
missioner Israel w. Durham, was
forced by public opposition and
clamOr to abandon Its efforts to ex-
tend the lease of the city gas works
to the United Gas Improvement
company for Is years."
.Amid tremendous cheering and
the waving Of flags several thousand
persons who were packed into the
Academy Of Music to hear prominent
Philadelphians express their protest
against the gas lease adopted the fol-
lowing heroic resolution:
".Resolved, That we, citizens Of Phila-
delphIa, without regard to party or politics,
do hereby, before God and man, pledge our
life. liberty and sacred honor to the COM
piete overthrow Of despotic methods in rnu-
ntcipal affairs and the restoration Of the
American principals for which our fathers
fought and which shall ever bs our glory
while we remain worthy to be called their
children"
A later dispatch adds: 1.-THE peo-
pie Of Philadelphia are not yet con-
tent with their great victory over the
gas steal gang, and are preparing to
complete the good work by cancell-
ing the United Gas Improvement
lease and establishing complete city
gas and electric plants as we'll as
breaking tho charters Of the Rapid
Transit company and taking over the
city's street railways. Other munic-
ipal projects are also being consid-
cred"
This shows what the people can do
when they wake up and take matters
In their own hand.
Philadel2hia has been ruled for
years by the most corrupt political
gang known In the history Of the
country.

Compassion.

Among the stories which were told
by certain aged physicians at a reun.
lon Of medical men Of the times when
surgical operations were conducted
without anaesthetics none was more
touching than the following:
A little girl not more than eight years
old was injured In such way that II
was necessary TO amputate one Of her
legs. She proved 10 be Of wonderful
pluck, and instead Of binding her, as
was customary in such cases. she was
given her most cherished doll to hold.
Pressing 1t in her arms, she submitted
TO the amputatiOn without a single cry.
When II was done the physician In
charge, seeking TO brighten matters up
with pleasantly, said, And now, my
dear, we will amputate your dolls leg"
Then the little girl burst into tears.
"No, no" she gasped between her
sobs. You shall not; II would hurt her
TOO much"
