Almost everything is put up to the
 interstate commerce commission 1 these days, and the latest complaint
 that has been made is by the banks
 against the express companies, says Washington writer. There are less than a dozen express companies and there are 7,500 banks represented in the complaint. Their grievance is against the express companies doing ! a money transfer business. Almost everyone has had occasion at some time or other to buy an express mon- ey order. cashable as the advertise ment reads "at any of 3O,OOO offices in the world" It is a convenient and not very expensive service and is appreciated by the public. especially by travellers abroad, whatever they may have to say of the practices of express companies as a rule. But the banks say that the express compan- les are taking the business that 1egi- timately belongs to them and they ask that the companies be enjoined from carrying on the money transfer business any longer. One of the sore points where if is claimed the express companies add insult to injury, is that they do not even take the trouble to keep a sufficient amount of | cash on hand in their offices in the smaller towns to cash the ordinary run of order, but instead they direct the holder of the order to the nearest bank which has to cash the order as a | matter of policy with it's customers, knowing that the order is perfectly good but that 1t will lose money by the transaction.

years ago in that state but for the
 farmer vote. Under the prohibition
 laws the farmers can sell their apple and other elders without restriction. These elders bring fancy prices among the Maine thirsty, not to speak of the drunks, as the beverage contains far more alcohol than many drinks sold as alcoholics.
 Ex-Senator Harris, democrat, came within 5000 votes of being elected governor of Kansas last year on an anti-prohibition platform and there will be tremendous fight next year. The republican state administration recently began a strict enforcement of the prohibition laws, shutting up all the joints and stopping the brew cries that were operating in spite of laws. 0fficial figures show that the drug stores have become the bene- ficiaries of the business of the blind tigers. The prescriptions have trebled in the last few months and theoretic- ally there are more sick people in Kansas in need of whiskey than ever before known. Some men are known to be so i'll that they get four and five quarts of bottled-in-bond and other brands at one time. Snake bites and all kinds of diseases necessitat- ing alcohol are on the increase.
 In half a dozen southern states the question is rampant politically. The Georgia legislature is now consider ing bill to abolish local option in that state and substitute prohibition. The South Carolina prohibitionists are preparing to go after the rem nants of the dispensary system in operation there. and so 1t is in many other states.

Some writers are everlastingly de
 claring that President Roosevelt and
 MT Bryan have the same ideas and
 policies and are therefore equally
 popular, so that each must be re-
 nominated by his party in order to
 afford his party a chance of success at the polls, says one writer. These political agitators are really nothing but masked "third-termers." They want Roosevelt, and not Bryan. They are financied by the banking inter- est, to which the Roosevelt adminis- tration has been very kind and con- siderate. They use MT Bryan's name to attract democrats to their stand ard, we'll knowing that, as between Bryan and Roosevelt, the latter is stronger in the west and northwest, where the real battle ground between these two candidates would lie They know that on all questions of finance the two men are antipodes. and that Roosevelt could get from the banking interests alone a greater poodle fund next year than he could get from all the railroads. insurance companies, and other trusts put together in 1904 while MT Bryan would lack in cam- paign funds and thus would probably get only the votes of the democratic states in the electoral college.

CAUGHT IN THE ACT.
New Haven Clerks Watch Man and
 Wife Making Toilet,

New Haven, July GA gentleman
 whose name could not be learned, but
 who is said to be a travelling, man
 from Troy, N. Y., put up at the'Ton-
 tine hotel Thursday accompanied
 by his wife. When they arose Friday morning they neglected to pull down
 the shades or draw the curtains of the windows of their room, which was on the third floor of the hotel facing the south side of City hall. They said later that they did not think at the time that it was neces- sary to take very elaborate precau- tions about 'drawing the curtains when they got up as the only build ings in site were the City hall and the police building.
 It wasn't long, however, before they learned their mistake. While engaged in dressing this gentleman and wife happened to casually glance out of their bedroom window and beheld a group of three or four clerks in City Engineer Kelly's office ,esn- ing out of the windows on the third floor of City hall rubberneeking in tently in their direction. Two of the rubbernecking clerks had opera glasses which they had evidently pro- vided themselves with previously for use in just such an opportunity as this.
 The gentleman from Trey and his wife were naturally very indignant over the insulting conduct of tho City hall clerks and after drawing the curtains this gentleman went over to police headquarters and en- tered a complaint. He later called on City Engineer Kelly and for time it looked as though some of the peeping clerks were going to get a Engineer Kelly was some what surprised to learn how his sub Drdinates amused themselves during office hours and promised to invest.- gate. / It is said that several complaints have been made by Tontine hotel guests over similar conduct on the part of certain City hall employees.

New Britain, July 6.-Jobn Bren- nan, the old clothes man, wei, known for his eccentric habits m the west ern part of the state, came to New Britain last evening, end passed through Central park. went down among the people at the trolley turn out and then came back and took . seat on the stone coping around the monument.
 The old man wore two coats of winter weight, the inside one being longer than the outside one. which by the way was not overelean, his hat was of the straw variety, wide of brim and aleieGt. his trousers were not only old but one leg was slit down on the inside for a distance of about a foot and the mans shoes showed eonelusiveiy that they had seen long and hard servics. The old mans face was covered with a short gray beard and he. carried a bundle of old clothes across one arm while In the other hand he carried a cane noted more for it's strength than its beauty
 As the old man took his seat on the coping he drew a large stone from his pocket. looked around care fully among the crowd apparently to see who he should hit and Ofieer BamfOTth went up and took the stone from him The old man then drew out a corn cob pipe. looked around anon the crowd again and when one man handed him paper of tobacco the old man filled his pipe and sat down again The old man attracted % much attention that the oEcer had to drive the crowd away.
