A miscellaneous Item to the effect
that Joseph Fritz of Byron. Mich., was
president of the Epworth League there
and also a bartender in his father's
saloon is denied. The young man is a
consistent member of the Methodist

though he boards at home, which is
above his father's saloon. He holds no
office in the Epworth League.
A new division of seagoing torpedo
boats has been added to the German
navy. The vessels are five in number
and are from the same type as those
lately sent for service in Chinese wat
ers. Each has a displacement of 350
tons, with a crew of fifty men, an arm
ament of three torpedo tubes and five
quick-firing 2-inch guns. The boats are
capable of steaming twenty-six to
twenty-seven knots an hour, and each
can carry 100 tons of coal.
It Is a fact worth bearing in mind
that whenever news is scarce in Was i
ington the correspondents are sure to
set afloat one or two rumors; that an
extraordinary session of Congress Is
to be called, or that some member of
the cabinet is about to retire. Matter
for a second dispatch is furnished by a
denial of the rumor. A knowledge of
this device will enable readers to esti

A Maryland judge has Judicially af
firmed one of woman's rights, says
the Pittsburg Dispatch. If a woman
finds her husband loitering around the
streets, she has a right to order him
home, where his presence is wanted,
and to push, shove or otherwise use so
much force as Is necessary to make
him obey. This is an especially in
disputable right, according to the
learned court of Hagerstown, Md.,
where the loitering husband is found
in company with another woman.
The author of "The Kidnapped Mil
lionaires," the latest novel to attract
general attention, is Frederick Upbam
Adams, an inventor o some note. He
recently built a railroad train whUh
shattered all records from a mile to
one hundred miles. It was built to
avoid atmospheric resistance, and was
popularly known as the "eigar-shnped
train" or the "wind-splitter." Between
Wnahlnfftnn and RalHmnrp thiq train
of seven cars attained the reniakable
speed of 103 miles an hour.
Dorothy Talbert, colored, 104, who
now lives in Atchison, for many years
was a slave in Clay county. Mo. Mrs.
Talbert was originally owned by a Vir
ginia family, but she was sold before
the civil war to Fountain Waller of
Liberty, Clay county, together with her
five children. The Virginia man who
sold them afterward bought back Hes
ter, one of the children and she Is still
on his plantation, and is herself a
great-grandmother. Mrs. Talbert lives
alone, and tends her garden beside do
ing her own work. Mrs. Conway, her
daughter, who died a few years ago,
although 61, was the old lady's "baby,"
and she feels the loss keenly.
Western apples sent to the New
York market last season afford new
proof of the Importance of packing
goods In the best way. In the ordinary
New York flat there is seldom room
for a barrel of apples, nor would fruit
bought in such quantity keep until
used. On the other hand apples pur
chased by the dozen or the peck are
expensive. Western growers who act
ed upon this knowledge were well paid.
Last year they shipped their apples to
New York in boxes. They were sold
at barrel rates, and the boxes were
conveniently kept on the fire escapes
until freezing weather. Two hundred
and fifty thousand boxes were sold last
winter, and this year the number will
be still larger.
The rights of a striking workman
were clearly and concisely stated the
other d"ay by a New York magistrate
who was hearing a case of assault
"You may work for whom you please,"
Le said, "as long ss you please, and
leave whenever you please. If you can
do better or get more money, you have
a perfect right to do so. But every
other man has the same right to sell
his labor for what be s;es fit, to
work as many hours as he pleases, and
to accept whatever compensation has
been agreed upon between him and his
employer. The law does not permit
70a to Interfere with him." If every
striker would keep this simple state-
ment la mind, labor troubles would at
least be free from violence.

It was in 1903 that the Supreme
Court of the United States found for
the plaintiff in the great case of Simon
Magus, against the mayor, aldermen,
etc., of Olathe, Kansas. The case was
this: A part of Olathe was built on
lands owned by Magus who acquired
an enormous fortune by selling them.
He laid out streets, granting rights of
way, but reserving to himself all
other rights in the streets. Neverthe
less, the people of Kansas, as the com
plaint set forth, "wrongfully and
maliciously assumed to breathe his
air in said streets, and committed
other trespasses upon the rights of
said Magus in said air."
The court held, following the "Sin
gle Tax" case (Taresey vs. The Town
of Dover, Superior Court of Kent
County, Delaware), that the street was
merely for passage.
This finding occasioned greater sur
prise than the income tax decision of
some years past (Pollock vs. Farmers'
Loan and Trust Company and Hyde
vs. Continental Trust ' Company, 158
U. S., 601), and a rehearing was held.
It was urged that the use of the
air was necessary to the right of way,
and was therefore included in it; but
the learned Judges pointed out that it
was Just as necessary to be fed as to
breathe, in order to travel; and yet,
although food, unlike air, was actu
ally produced from the ground, no one
had claimed the right to grow food
products on the highway, as an inci
dent to its use.
The court argued with much force
that the railroads were also highways,
in which the people have special rights
(Munn vs. People of Illinois, 94 U. S.
Supreme Court.) And that cars were
necessary to their use, but that It
could not be claimed that the right to
the use of the roadbed gave a right
to the free use of the cars.
It was areued that it was in viola
tion of the right of the people peace
ably to assemble as provided in
Amendment 1. United States Constitu
tion. But. citin "The Commonwealth
vs. Davis" (Massachusetts Law Re
ports, June, 11897), the court held that
by taking the proper steps and pay-
Ine the fee. any citizen could oDtain
license to breathe the air in public
highways (Same case, 140 Mass., 485.)
Laws taxing Immigration had been
uniformly upheld (Edge et al vs.
Robertson Circuit Court E. D. N. Y.,
1883), and such laws denied the use
not only of the air, but even of ac-
us. without payment of the fee. It
was further said that the ordinances
opening the streets in their turn ex
cluded such use, and that the princi
ple of the ordinance was constitution
al. (Dillon's Municipal Corporations,
p. 250, 2d ed.)
The decision was quickly followed
in the house of lords, the chamber of
deputies and the high courts of otner
countries, and as nearly all landown
ers have rights in the streets, numer
ous suits were instituted.
In fact one shyster attorney, the
owner of a little plot which was mort
gaged for all it was worth, had sum
monses nrinted. and, relying upon the
principle that every one has a right
to sue everyone else, served them upon
every person who passed, at the rate
of several hundred every day. Near
ly every one failed to answer, and the
costs brought him in a pretty fortune.
The new doctrine was followed, and
injunctions obtained against certain
strikers, who breathed the air upon
roads belonging to the company, on
the principle laid down in Mackall vs.
Ratchford, 82 F, 41. The court Justly
said that common property in the air
worked very well in primitive times;
but so did common property in land.
The general experience of mankind,
however, had Improved upon those
plans. "There is no force,' said the
learned court, "In the strenuous con
tention of counsel for the defendants
that the doctrine of rights in air was
new. for we find in Blackstone, Book
H, Chap, xxvl, Sec. 31, 'Ancient
Lights. 'Thus,, too, the benefit of the
elements, the light, the air and the
water, can only be appropriated by oc

SOMBTHINO ABOUT FOOLS.
The St Lwnle Post-Dispatch has this
to say about taxpayers: "The most
foolish of an fools is the taxpayer, who
through parttsaa feeling, takes no In
terest In resistance to public plunder
ers. The looters In all parties should
be turned down."
That the average taxpayer Is con
siderable of a fool Is unquestionably
true. Otherwise there would be In
every political subdivision a system of
taxation and revenue in harmony with
natural laws. Instead of the present
scheme, which is not a system at all,
but a senseless, a ridiculous and an
iniquitous scheme for "robbing Peter
to pay Paul." No man possessing any
business sagacity would neglect his
own personal affairs as do millions of
voters the affairs of civil gavernment
for which every voter is to some de
gree responsible. In fact, many voters
imagine that they themselves are not
taxpayers, simply because they pay
nothing directly to the tax collector.
They never see far enough into the in
cidence of revenue laws and the work
ings of civil government to even dream
that they are dally being indirectly
taxed to help pay other people's tax
es; that whenever they buy, trade,
travel, eat, employ labor, or do any
thing else requiring them to pay
money or give services, a portion of
what they part with goes Into the bot
tomless boot of crooked taxation.
The average voting taxpayer Is quite
averse to being robbed by a profes
sional highwayman, but if systematic
robbery of his earnings Is perpetrated
under the forms of law, and called
taxation.be submits.meekly and silent
ly. As things now go, the public plun
derers selected by the people to man
age public affairs have as fat a job as
any reasonable gang of rascals should
wish for.
"The looters in ail parties will be
turned down" whenever the honest
men In all parties arise in their might
and turn them down. They have the
power to do this, but lack only the
moral strength. Ralph Hoyt.
SCOUNDBEL1SM TRIUMPHANT.
There was no temptation to Mayor
Ashbridge in Mr. Wanamaker's propo
sition to pay the city of Philadelphia
$2,500,000 for street car franchises
which the mayor between two days
made haste to sign away without a
cent of compensation to the people.
Mayor Ashbridge was not acting in
the Interest of Phildelphla and so Mr..
Wanamaker's offer was disdained as
unworthy of his consideration.
Philadelphia has fallen very low and
she is sinking lower and lower in
moral degradation. She is held In con
tempt by all self-respecting cities at
home and abroad. Even corrupt New
York and diseased Chicago look down
upon her from moral heights and there
is no community in a!l the land to low
as to do her reverence. She has reach
ed the state of the sot who has lest
all sense of shame. Like an abandon
ed woman she sees things from an
angle that makes the bad look good
and the good bad. The only hope now
la, that the mayor's monstrous betray
al of his trust will shock the people
into new moral life.
It Is a hideous commentary upon the
morals of the state for Philadelphia
to Pennsylvania is much what Paris is
to France. The loss is that of Phila
delphia alone perhaps, but the disgrace
Is to Pennsylvania. The debauchery is
a reeking shame to all the people of
the great state.
It is not easy to characterize this
incomparable scoundrellsm. Ordinary
language fails in attempting It. But
if it shall serve to arouse the sleeping
conscience of the commonwealth the
Infamy which Ashbridge has secretly
consummated In the face of Wana
maker's munificent offer will not have
been In vain. Johnstown Democrat
SUPREME COURT MUSICIANS.
The great Jumble of opinions, each
differing from the others, handed
down by these nine Immaculate wise
men, show beyond a doubt, to thinking
folks, that the "constitution" is truly
an "Instrument" upon which this
trained band of legal musicians can
play any kind of tune they sse fit
and they can eaRlly play to the taste
of seventeen different kinds of audf
ences. In fact the constitution has
ceased to be more than a few pages of
words In a dictionary, and this oli
garchy of nine men, sitting on the
supreme bench, are the lexicograph
ers who give them any definition that
pleases them. The real government
of the United Slates has gone out of
the hands of the people of Congress
and the executive, into the hands of
this court, which can make or unmake
constitutions and laws at their own
sweet will. That they can make light
ning changes as rapidly as a modern
comedian seems almost self-evident
from recent decisIons,and the question
as to whether the supreme court at
well as the constitution should not be
abolished and the will of the people
substituted Is a pertinent one, and one
that will soon have to be settled.
Displeased at a judge's decision, Al

The wage scale having been fairly

Conveniences which good men need to

In themselves bring happiness and con

comforts, and the latter are what men
work for. Of such things, therefore,
until the proper time arrives the men
become suspicious, as they partake of
the nature of charity, and honest
workmen resent anything of such n
nature. The men must be mentally
happy and well advanced In modern

announcement to become current that
he has a "model shop" when he has

An attempt to advertise an enter

"I see," said the head of the firm,
"that you have an article In one of the
magazines this month, entitled 'How to

"Yes," said the young man in a hesi

"You seem to have demonstrated In a

cability of making four dollars cover
one's legitimate weekly necessities,"
said his employer, "and, comparing ar

you are expecting that your article

The young man nodded an affirma

LOW WOOL PRICES.
From the Helena Independent: This
explanation of the low price of wool
(that It Is the result of the use of cot
ton In making cloth) throws no light
on the action of the beneficent Dingley
law, which was given to the wool
growers with a whoop and a guaranty
that It would keep up the price of wool
and make the wool growers prosper
oss. It was asserted that the Wilson
Gorman law was the cause of the tow
pries of wool during Its existence. The
protectionists refused to admit that
there was or could be say other cases.
They asserted that Dtnrtey protection
far wool would raws the price of wool
aad keep the price up. When the greet
Australiaa drouth killed mors than
tMs,et sheep dm protection lets re
ftmsf. ts nestles It, eJaixCig that the
l2 ff sf wf A fca Cartas as wttl
as la America, was dne to the Dingier
tew.
Secretary Hedges now tells as that
the predicted good effects of the Ding
ley law on tht price of wool are Inter
ferred with by the wicked manufac
turers of the East, who are "diluting"
woolen goods with cotton. Why not
amend the Dingley law so as to probtn
it these manufacturers from "diluting"
In this way and thus Interfering w'"
the beneficent effects of the law?
Secretary Hedges tells the Reeewt
that the "low price of wool will also
affect the character of the sheep busi
ness materially." Yet the Dingley law
reigns, though Its guaranty is im
paired. But why not put the wool
tariff higher? Mr. Hedges tells us that
the present low prica of wool under the
price-raising Dingley law "will dri8
the sheep men to raising sheep more
for the mutton than for the wool they
bear." But why don't the sheep men
move on Congress and demand a high
er tariff? Possibly the tariff iBn't high
enough.
If the sheep men are driven, under
the Dingley law, to raising sheep more
for mutton than for wool, will the price
of the sneep fall? Mr. Hedges leaves
us to Infer that it will not on account
of the advancing price of beef. If a
higher price of beef causes a higher
price of mutton, will the protections'
forget all about It and claim that the
higher price of mutton Is due to the
Dingley law?
SLAVERY IN PENNSYLVANIA.
The North American has presented a
faithful picture of some of the condi
tions prevailing in the anthracite coal
district the contemplation of which
should iflake Pennsylvania ashamed
that It has been necessary for the min
ers to ask for relief at the hands of
the legislature.
It Is a reproach to an American
commonwealth that any portion of Its
population could be made the victim
of a system of Industrial slavery that
violates the principles of Its organic
law and Is in every aspect, worse than
feudalism.
The depths of human misery are
founded by the toilers In the mines.
No serf was ever more absolutely at
the mercy of his master than is many
a miner In Pennsylvania, who Is the
perpetual debtor of the company store.
This miner must work for such wtsgcj
is the operator sees fit to pa', and he
must pay such prices for what be con
sumes as the operator see's fit to exact.
Hy a system of acounts that Is fraudul
ent on its face, the prices are
made to consume the wages,
and revolt against the robbery
means starvation for the min
er and his family. There are families
in the anthracite district who have
toiled for ten years at the hardest
work done by human beings and neve.'
received a dollar In cash.
No more consideration is given to
the needs of these toilers, beyond such
as may be necessary to keep them
alive while they are able to work
than is given to the wants of wild
animals. The mules that haul ore are
treated more humanely than aj-e the
men who mine it. No adequate precau
tions against loss of life or limb are
taken. If expense be involved, because
no capital is Invested in human life,
and death and suffering cost nothing
to the company. Laws enacted to make
murderous negligence expensive to
corporations are nullified by subordl
nation of those appointed to enforce
them. Human life Is held more cheaply
in a coal mine than In an army on the
field of battle. Philadelphia North

RECIPROCITY SECRETS.
The controversy that has sprung up
between Republicans as to the merits
of protection and reciprocity Is good
reading these days, for when thieves
full out honest men may get their
dues. The American Economist, the
organ of the ultra protectionists, is
laying down the law with a high band.
It Is receiving some pretty heavy raps
in return but as long as the trusts
and protected monopolies put up the
money to make the fight, doubtless the
editor1 of the Economist enjoys the
situation and will hit every head that
comes up to say a word against Its
backers. What makes the controversy
more interesting is that many facts
that were known but were difficult to
prove are now being acknowledged.
For Instance, It was well known that
the Republican managers In the Sen
ate were held up by the protected In
dustries affected and so the French
and other reciprocity treaties were not
ratified.
One of these protectionists writing
about the matter mukes this plain by
saying: We Invited the French gov
ernment to make a reciprocity treaty.
We told them that if they would re
duce their duties upon some of our
products we would reduce our duties
on some of theirs. This Invitation
was extended under the authority of
tbt Dingley tariff law, and therefore
was the act of Congress ss well as
that of Ibe Executive, but after the
Executive had performed bis part of
the duty. Congress repudiated the
whole thing, because a few New Eng
land manufacturers of knit goods and
pinchbeck Jewelry, and a few Call
fornlans who are trying to raise
French walnuts, feared that their pro
ducts would be reduced.
