OVER THE TEACUPS.

Even after tea was introduced into Eu-
rope and had come into general use tea
cups were scarce. At the same time cof-
fee was introduced. but apart from Con-
stantinople the first coffee cups in Europe
date back only as far as 1645 In Venice.
1859 i'm Paris, 1852 I'm London and 1884 In
Leipsic. From the FIRST however. the
conventinal Oriental coffee cup, without
stem or handle. was little used. and in
Germany not a. all. The Chinese teacup
was used for tea. coffee and chocolate
as well. Specimens OF porcelain were un-
doubtedly introduced into Europe in the
middle ages. yet not I'll the sixteenth CEN

A CARPET WARRIOR.

The News-Democrat has already shown to the
satisfaction of all unprejudced citizens that the
claim made by Mayor Dyer that he has never sub
mtted to boss dictation, is utterly without founda-
ton
1t has been shown that he never would have
been nominated elected TO a single office he has
held had he not been Braytonism candidate
1t has shown that while governor he did
nothing to prevent the passage of the outrageous
law lyingly labeled "An Act Providing for a Tax
on Street Railways under which the Perry trac-
ton corporation claims perpetual rights in the pub
lie thoroughfares, and that he passive because
he was the creature OF Braytonism
1t has shown that he recommended and helped
to pass an amendment To the ballot law, by which
it was sought to discourage and dsitanchse the in
dependent voter and that he did this because Bray
tonism wanted it done.
1t has shown that while senator he made no
effort to restore to Providence the iTched right of
home rule because Braytonism declared it should
not be restored
1t has shown that ne voted for the iniquitous
constitutional amendment proposing 10 gerry
mander Providence into assembly districts and TO
rob the ballots OF the citizens OF practically all their
power, and that he did this because Braytonism
wanted that amendment adopted so that it might
transform this normally Democratic city into
Republican stronghold.
All these things the News Democrat has shown
and it believes they establish pretty concusively
Mayor Dyer's subservience to Braytonism.
The News-Democrat, while cognizant of Mayor
Dyer's slender claim TO consideration on account
OF his record, not inclined TO make il
matter OF discussion, but the mayor himself in ect-
ed that record into his canvass and thus forced
public scrutiny of it when he said:
The record of my public service for more than
quarter OF a century you will find in the archives
of the war department at Washington, in the
records of the Grand Army of the Republic OF
Rhode Island, in the dongs OF the several Repub
can conventions from which ! have received such
signal honor, in the state house, at the city hall
and last, but most OF all, trust in the confidence
and respect OF my fellow citizens
What do the archives of the department
at Washington" show?
Nothing whatever relating to Elisha Dyer, for
the very good reason that Elisha Dyer never
in the army of the United States. either during
the Civil or before or since that war
And what is Elisha Dyer's record a soldier
during that tremendous struggle that threatened
the life of the nation itself?

Things Seen Through

But when you ask your coal dealer what
he is compelled to pay the trust for his
coal he will tell you that the trust
less than $3.50 ton. And he tells the
truth.
New York uses something like nine mill
lions Of tons OF coal year.

people cannot, or will not. help them

that railroad and controls the coal trust
When you lay in your winters supply

$50 moro than YOU should pay for a sup
ply Of ten tons, merely because j. T.
Morgan has arranged things so that you
are compelled 10 pay IT,

In his power 10 make these profitable ar
rangements, you ought by all means to
vote as he Is voting. Morgan will tell
you that IL is right and proper that he
take $50 or $40 from you every year be-
cause OF his genius for finance. And he
will tell you that he is voting for con
tinuance OF the conditions which enable
him TO exact his profit, and that you
ought 70 vote that way too.

and work as he does. But N YOU happen
