shameful reputation Of RepuDli-

The passing Of the outrageous Al
drich tariff bill, an oppressive TAX
measure that will fasten on the backs
of the consumers of the country for
years to come unspeakable burdens
beyond the calculation Of the finite
mind. is the legislative-tax iniquity
Of the country.
Sir, the passage Of this resolution
is. as I say, only a subterfuge-a
mere hope to be speedily dashed to
the ground. The Republicans are only
pretending to give the people the
future possibility of an income tax.
They know the people are in favor Of
a graduated tax; they know the peo-
pie now demand It; and hence they
hold out this mere pretense while
they place upon the statute books
the highest protective tarif-tax law
in the history of the land to burden
them more than they have ever been

Consumption Cannot Be Cured BY.
Patent Medicines.
A pathetic illustration Of the way in
which the public is being deceived by
uuack cures for consumption is found
in a letter received recently by the
National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis.
The letter came from a woman In
the mountains Of West Maryland, and
was addressed as follows:

sey City 2 years ago last Feb. 9Th

The letter was referred by the
Postmaster Of Jersey City to the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis. 1t
reads:

which was, take one drop the first
day, two drops the second, & so on
till it went up to 30 drops. Now 1
want to know what to do when the
80 drops have been reached. Does
the directions say to continue the 30
drops each day or go back to one

The National Association calls at
tention to the fact that, according tc
this letter. one life at least has al

Senator Stone Tells His Story.


Justice Grammar said in his judg-
ment any assault or disturbance was
a breach of the peace. Senator
Stone here interrupted to say he &C
quiesced in the decision, although he
was not certain 1t was correct. He
had not had an opportunity to ex-
anime the law. Being invited to make
a statement he began to describe
what had occurred. In the course
Of his narrative he became eloquent
and used gestures.
II told the Negro who waited on
me d bring me lamb chops and
boiled eggs" said the senator. Then
called him back and ordered him
to bring me a drink of whisky and
a large tumbler Of water. He brought
the whisky in a small glass. and with
II he brought another small glass
containing water. called him back
and told him to bring me large glass
Of water. I spoke sharply to him.
He came back in a little while with
a large glass and a chunk Of ice IN
II, but no water.
Made Him Sit Up and Take Notice.
Every one else in the car was
served and had finished eating, but
there was no signs Of my food. I
walked back to the kitchen and
asked the cook why l was not be-
ing served. He pointed to my order,
which was all cooked and served for
the waiter. The latter put in an
appearance and uttered remarks
calculated TO make him sit up and
take notice. He started to answer
me back.
You black dog l said, you're
trying to show your resentment
Then / reached over and slapped his
face. A fresh young person, who in
troduced himself as the Pullman con-
ductor. happened along in a little
while and asked me what I meant by
creating trouble. That made me mad
der still and told him a few things.
He said he'd show me. When the
train got to Baltimore two special
officers came up to my seat, accom-
panied by the Niger. The Niger
formally identified me and was
placed under arrest. That's the
whole story"
Justice Grammar then rendered his
decision.
Under no conditions was Senator
Stone justified in slapping Brown in
the face, unless Brown had called him
a vile name, and he did not, but as
Senator Stone had been drinking
whisky on the train and no doubt had
tanked up pretty well before he had
boarded it he was in the proper
frame Of mind to commit any black
deed or crime unbecoming to a true
gentleman.
And as for Lawrence T. Brown, he
displayed his true manhood by re.
| fusing to. give his consent to the
dismissal Of the case against Sena-
tor Stone, and If there is no justice
/ for him in the courts Of Baltimore
or Md, then he should square his &C
count with Senator Stone. by cody
walking up in front of him and Sbat
him between his eyes which is the
only way to teach him to stay in his
proper place and to refrain from call
ing Colored walters -Niggers" and

WILL OFFER VIEWS

CONSOLIDATION BODIES PLAN
EXHAUSTIVE STUDY
San Pedro Interests Support Local
Committee for Improvement
of Outer Harbor

SAN PEDRO, April 26.-The confer
ence at Los Angeles tomorrow evening
between the local consolidation COM
mittee and the committee of fifteen
of Los Angeles will, it is believed, re-
suit in bringing together the different
views concerning the location Oh the
proposed municipal docks which VIII
be built by the greater city. after
consolidation takes place.
The local committee has the backing
of all interests here in their stand for
the immediate improvement of the
outer harbor, but some compromise
may be offered before the negotiations
finally are closed. No objection is en-
tertained among the consolidation lead
ers to the ultimate improvement OF
the west basin, but it is believed by
all here that the outer harbor, which
now has deep water, is the place for
the first public docks. The 146 acres
of public lands are now covered on the
outer edge of twenty-four feet of
water, and this concession is looked
upon as too valuable an asset for the
united city to pass by, especially as the
need for a wharf in deep water is ap-
parent here at the present time.
Many friends of San Pedro who live
in Los Angeles or elsewhere are writ
ing to friends here approving the
stand for the outer harbor improve
ment, and, while difference of opin-
ion may exist from an engineers
standpoint, it is believed that these
objections can be overcome.
