JUST a LITTLE TROUBLE.
Two Drunken Men Furnish only Ex-
element for the Police.

The only excitement the police could
ind last night consisted of two
round engagement with a pair Of
DRINKS They were captured at the
same time. and hauled to the station on
the same load. but one of them was not
locked UP.
IT was about II o'clock when Of6cer
Jenkins observed one Sylvan Kline. a
Testaurahter and booze dispenser, who,
armed with nothing but his voice and a
$22.50 champagne drunk was disturbing
the peace ana quiet OF the red light dis
trict. Kline was announcing himself
g ( every corner, and several times be-
tWeen< He wore a huge good-natured
sag. and was no trouble to the officer.
When the policeman nailed him and
called the wagon, he came in contact
with Officer Summers, who had in
charge one VIII Dupree, a very bad
and noisy negro with a. large gun. The
policeman had relieved him of the ar
tiIlery. but his mouth was working Ov-
ertime. The policemen and their
charges entered the Black Maria and
proceeded to the station. Kline gave
no trouble. but when they hove to in
front Of the station. the negro prisoner.
Dupree. decided that he was needed
elsewhere Therefore he took a header
over the off wheel. jumped the fence
=ntC 10 Ross yard and skidOOed. Officer
Summers opened first by swapping the
huge weapon he had taken away from
Dupree. 1t would not fire, so he threw
BIS club at the fugitive. The stick
failed to connect, and drawing his own
revolver he fred salvo in honor of the
occasion. And Dupree continued to
wander away with a swarm of police
officers In his wake His getaway was
sfeu chosen, and he was not recaptured.
Then the word was passed over town
that a race riot had started In the bot
toms. and a number of heavily armed
white men adjourned to that district to
help out the police. It was over an
hour before It was Strengthened.

Gov. FOLK wants the coming
legislature to give him the power
to remove from Office our Sheriffs
and Prosecuting Attorneys, with
out presentment or trial. Legis-
latures in the past have done some
damphool things, but | can hardly
believe that the peoples repre-
sentatives will seriously consider
this preposterous recommendation.
They want no imitation God AL
mighty at the head Of the State.
Mr.. Folk seems to be fully i'm
bued with the Hamiltonian idea
that the farther the power Of self
government is removed from the
people, the better for them. When
that gets to be accepted Demo-
cratic doctrine there is one old,
back-numbcred individual whom
you may count upon as down and
out for all time. When one adopts
Republican tenets he ought to be
honest enough to refuse to mas
qsierade as a Democrat.

M. R. SMITH, congresman-elect
from this district, in the recent
campaign, had to pledge himself
as favorable to protective tariff
duties on lead and lead ores. In
making this pledge to the voters
in the mining district he either lied
to get votes or he acknowledges
the Republican party is right on
the tariff question. The Ironton
REGISTER should give us its view
of Mr.. Smiths position on this
point.-Potosi Journal.
The REGISTER does not believe
that Mr.. Smith made any such
pledge az is here attributed to him,
and expects a vigorous denial from
him as soon as his attention is
called to this statement. Most as
suredly the REGISTER would not
support Mr.. Smith nor any other
man for Congress who declares in
favor of a protective tariff.

in full, let considerable light in on
the ways of the present Commits

in the Republican membership in

elected this year. With Bryan at
the head OF the Democratic ticket
two years hence, their majority
will be wiped out, and the country

conditions. 1t will be a sad day

Charles of special privilege, but the

THE very fact that a corpora
ton lawyer and financial CRATER
like Fairbanks is Vice-President
ought to be sufficient to convince
any fair-minded man that money,
not protested principle, rules the
Republican party. Hi. life is an
epitome of the methods which
threaten the existence of the Re-
public. A stand-patter and a
trustite, he is aspiring to the Presi-
dency, and no doubt will receive
the support of every captain Of
finance in the land.

LIFE insurance is a good thing,
but somebody has said-and I
cannot recall that his proposition
was ever disputed-that one can
pay too much for even "a good
thing" The gentlemen now in
charge of the New York Mutual
claim that they have saved 'steen
millions or Whereabouts over form
er expenditures during the year.
| think there ought, in justice to
the policy-holder, be no such
amount to s'save." l am one of
the latter, and have been for
thirty-odd years, and would rather
see a little reduction in premiums
than a saving in excessive receipts.

Burton violated no statute in act

A SPECIAL contributor to the
Lead Belt NeWs tells how the Great
American System OF Protection
benefits the laboring man over
there:
The pressing need for the well
fare and wellbeing of all classes of
citizens of the lead belt is better
wages for the miner. And no one
will dispute that the miners of this
district are poorly paid--miserably
paid! There is not a mining dis
trict in the United States where
labor is SO poorly paid as in this
lead belt. On the other hand,
there is nota mining district in the
United States where the mine
owners realize as large dividends
as in this lead belt.
Sure! Lead has advanced-un-
der Protection-to 6 cents a pound.
The cost of the things necessary to
the life of the miner has greatly
advanced, too; but his wages?
They have not kept pace with the
increasing dividends of the COM
panies, but, we are told, r ''mis-
erably low" Why should they
not be low? Labor is plentiful,
and it's pay must depend upon the
condition of supply and demand.
Unlike the commodity the miners
dig from the earth, labor is not
protected. The presence of hum
dreds from the ''pauper labor"
districts Of the Old World proves
this. For the mine-owners, with
free-trade conditions as to labor,
to pay more than is made neces-
sary by virtue of supply and de-
mand, is mere charity-not "busi-
ness" The dignity Of labor ought
to place it above charity, which, if
it does not directly enslave, paves
the way to Pauperdom. Taking
it as a business proposition, capi-
tai pays only what it has to pay,
and labor cannot consistently del
mand more. But how foolish the
people to put up the bars against
competition in products and give
wide entrance to unlimited supply
Of labor! By-the-way, during the
late campaign, we heard much
from the Republican spellbinders
about 0the high wages they are
paying in the lead districts under
b~enefcent Protection. It seems
their roseate picture doesn't fit the
miners camera.

THERE is a good deal of "rot"
in the "facts" put forth by the
postal department in connection
with the low rate of newspaper
postage. In my belief there is
some 'interest" behind the move
to increase the rate-perhaps I'M
known to the department itself.
The SD, 200, 900 deficit, the First As
sistant Postmaster General claims,
is due to publications unlawfully
taking advantage of the one-cent
rate, but this the Houston Post de-
MES. 1t says: "The deficit is
caused by the enormous price paid
the railroads for carrying the mail
and the plundering by the rail-
roads charging exorbitant rents
for mail cars and also by the rapid
increase of the rural free delivery
IOuloS' Ouc uOlldl d uululCu
pounds is a good price for carry
ing sacks Of newspaper mail, and
many of the greater newspapers
are sending their newspapers for
the news agents by express or fast
freight at a lower rate. The rail-
roads for the year ending June 80,
1904-the last official report-re-
ceived for carrying the mails S44,-
499, 1872, and for the same period
the express companies paid the
railroads S41,875, 636. The weight
of the express matter carried must
exceed the weight of the mail
carried many times, which indi-
Gates how the railroads, by the aid
OF a complacent Republican Con-
gress, are paid subsidies far great
er than the service is fairly and
reasonably worth"

nearly to the shoulder over the fore
arm, where they are loosely tied with
a succession of ribbon bows. In lin
gerie garments the square neck is
preferred to the round this year, and
this is always finished with a band of
lace or embroidery.
The empire form is, of course, very
fashionable for chemises, but, while
it is a pretty cut, it needs to be made
of very fine material else it's straight
form will lie in folds beneath the cor.
set. Most chemises nowadays are
shaped in under the arms so as to do
away with this extra width at the
waist-line. A pretty finishing to take
the place of sleeves and shoulder parts
on a garment to be worn with decol
lette dress, consists of ribbons which
tie on the shoulders and may be un
tied and slipped beneath the bodice
when worn with the evening gown.
The Japanese n%ightgown of quite
loose cut is a decided novelty. This
has rows of little tucks descending
from the shoulder and extending half
way down the figure. A double band
of insertion starts at the foot of the
gown. passes by the side of the tucks
over the right shoulder and around
the neck at the back. meeting in the
centre of the front at the waistline.
The sleeves are loose and flowing as
BELTS a garment of this nature. Few
nightdresses have collars, most of
them being finished with straight
bands of embroidery or lace.
CHARMING DRESSING SACKS.
Some very jaunty little dressing
sacks of silky batiste or nainsook are
being constructed. These are entire
ly accordion pleated. except for a por-
ton of the sleeve. Lace and insertion
surround the throat, and for those of
Empire cut, a band of the same marks
the high waistline in back and in
front rises over the bust to be fastened
with ribbons. Some of these lingerie
tea jackets have broad and elaborate
collars which reach over the should
ers.
Another new conner is the blouse
waisteoat of embroidered linen. batiste
or mousseline de sole. This is made
without sleeves and drawn in about
the waist with a tape to adjust the full
ness in front. These are designed to
be worn with lingerie suits of which
a long or short jacket forms a part.
Lingerie petticoats are of increasing
daintiness. They are for the most part
deliberately trimmed, the top portion
being of sheath-like cut and fitting
without a bit of fulness. They are
completed with broad fiounces of
tucks, embroidery and lace. Som of
these f1ounces show several frillings
of lace or embroidery, while others
are elaborate with hand-embroidered
designs.
