A Striking Incident of Fast Living
in a Great City.

While Wine flowed—Search
for the Moral.
“See that man—that one with the
silk-lined tenor-singer overcoat with
the high collar and bull’s-eye diamond
in his shirt front? Well whenever I
see him the vicissitudes of life in a
large city like Chicago are brought
vividly to my mind.
The speaker and his companion says
the Chicago Tribune were standing in
a down-town buffet after theater hours
and were having a parting nip before
boarding the last regular car. In an-
other part of the buffet stood a jolly
crowd of sporty-looking men resplen-
dent in first-water jewelry cracking
the necks off of bottles containing the
rich ripe fluid of France's oldest vint-
age as fast as the waiters could fur-
nish them. In the center of this group
stood the prosperous-looking gambler
to whom reference had been made by
the speaker. He seemed to be the
“angel” of the party doing all the buy-
ing and refusing to let his comrades
spend a cent
“Now that same richly-dressed sport
and wine buyer was in this same place
a year ago with just such another party
but on that occasion he was not the
.‘angel’ continued the speaker.
"I was in the party myself that time
and the corks popped then just as they
are doing now. But the sport didn’t
do any of the popping. Nor did he
wear such garments as he now does.
As for jewelry he was as free %om it
as a pig is from feathers. I watched
him somewhat more attentively than
I would under ordinary circumstances
for the reason that he did not seem to
enjoy the blowout. His conduct seemed
strange and although his appearance
clearly indicated that he had not fallen
up against such a snap for moons yet
he had to be pleaded with almost every
"I AM STARVING.
time a fresh quart was stunned before
he would empty his goblet.
“A pained expression would scurry
across his face every time a fresh order
was given and a five-spot would be
transferred to the hand of the waiter.
He was sitting next to me and finally
after a dozen or so of bottles had been
disposed of by the high rollers he
leaned over to me and whispered:
“ ‘This is about as tough an ex-
perience as 1 ever went through. I
can’t stand it any longer’ and he made
a move as if to get up and leave. I
looked at him in surprise and then asked
him what was the matter.
“‘Why can’t you see?’ he replied.
‘Look at my face.’
“I did so and noticed that it was
drawn and pinched. His eyes too still
retained t heir lack luster appearance al-
thbugh he had surrounded a good dozen
glasses of the grape flow. I then
thought the man was sick and offered
at once to go to a drug store for him or
summon a physician but he shook his
head in a shamefaced despondent sort
of way and with a sigh placed his
lips to my ear and whispered:
“ *D—n it man can't you see that I
am starving; actually starving? Seo
the money Frank is blowing in at four
dollars a quart while I am really suffer-)
ing for the want of a square meal. I
can get all the costly wine I can drink
but not a bite to eat. That’s why I
call my experience tough.’
“Of course we soon had our hungry
companion in front of a twin porter-
house half a dozen big baked potatoes;
a dish piled high with hot biscuits and
a big pot of coffee. And he did
to it too. Whenever I see him I can’t
help but think of the time I was in the
company of a man who could swell his
waistband on rare wines but couldn’t
get a bite to eat. But that's life in a
large burg especially in the ranks of
the up-and-down sport.”
Clock Run by a Geyser.
One of the most curious clocks in the
world is that which Amos Lane of Am-
idee Nev. constructed some time ago.
The machinery which is nothing but
a face hands and lever is connected
with a geyser which shoots out an im-
mense column of hot water every 38
seconds. This spurting never varies
to the tenth of a second and therefore
a clock properly attached to it cannot
fail to keep correct time. Every time
the water spouts up it strikes the lever
and moves the hands forward 38 sec-
onds.
Saperatltlon in Belgium.
A Brussels paper relates a strange
story of supersititon. A peasant liv-
ing in a Belgian village found his cattle
suffering with an epidemic disease. He
was made to believe that the devil was
in his stable and called upon the priest
to exorcise him. The priest advised
him to seek a veterinary surgeon.
Thereupon the peasant refused to at-
tend the services of the “infidel” priest
and appealed to the archbishop to
transfer the priest by way of punish-
ment.

THL LOCAL DEMOCRACY
JEFFERSON DAY OBSERVED
WITH SOME SPEECH-MAKING.
Mr. Bushk-k Discusses Economic Con-
ditions and ('baracterizes Trusts As
The Most Menacing Evils of the
Times.
At the banquet given ai the Maver-
ick hotel last night by Cbf Jefferson
club the toast "Our Patron Saint”
was responded to by Mr. Frank H.
Busbick as follows:
Fellow Democrats: In the days
when Rome was said to be « republic
but was in fact a military oligarchy
ti feast was observed upon one day of
each year on which master and slave
were accorded equal freedom the
slaves being privileged without res-
traint or penalty to utter home truths
to their masters. Fortunately in this
enlightened age and land of the free
we no longer have the blight of slav-
ery and the humblest among us is at
all times free to speak his mind upon
whatever concerns his own well being
or the welfare of his country.
For this precious and necessary at-
tribute of freedom still denied the
citizens of some other governments
we in this country are principally in-
debted to that great apostle of human
rights whose memory and whose poli-
tical principles we have on this occas-
ion assembled to honor. Strange as
it may seem the framers of our con-
stitution. after all th” travail and dis-
cussion An which that great instru-
ment was brought forth failed to in-
clude among Its provisions this great
prerogative and it was only vouch-
safed in a subsequent amendment
urged by Mr. Jefferson then abroad
representing his country in France.
This amendment with qgter guaran-
tees of personal liberty!: instituting
our bill of rights providcslhat “Con-
gress shall make no law almlging the
freedom of speech or of tbMpress; or
of the right of the people peacefully to
assemble and to petition the govern-
ment for a redress of grievances.”
My countrymen perhaps few of us
have dwelt sufficiently upon the im-
portant and far reaching results of
this act of Mr. Jefferson upon the des-
tinies of the republic. Who that have
read of the prosecutions for political
utterances under the alien and sedi-
tion laws or of the attempts of the
more radical slaveholders to suppress
the propaganda of the Abolitionists
can doubt for one moment that regard:
less of the merits of- the immediate
political questions then involved this
republic could have ever endured had
not the freedom of speech and person-
al liberty been guaranteed to every
citizen under the flag? I undertake
to say that bad Mr. Jefferson rendered
his country no other service had he
not been instrumental in arousing bis
countrymen to the justice and possi-
bility of independence had the immor-
tal declaration been written by an-
other instead of coming from bis hand
he would still have earned immortali-
ty and the lasting gratitude of suc-
ceeding generations for having secured
their personal rights and the perpe-
tuity of the constitution.
While it is particularly appropriate
that Democrats should celebrate this
day. I assume it is not so much the
personality of Mr. Jefferson that in-
terests us as the princles which
have come to be associated with his
name. A gentleman of good colon-
ial stock as were most of the con-
spicuous figures iu the Revolutionary
period withal Mr. Jefferson was prac-
ticed and skilled in the subtle arts of
the politician and while assuredly a
most excellent citizen he played the
fiddle and liked good living and on
the whole did not differ materially in
bis social and moral aspect from
other respectable people of his day.
It is not Jefferson tbe man nor ft he
politician nor the office-holder that we
especially revere but rather Jefferson-
ism as expressing the basic principles
of popular government and tin origin
of our great Democratic party. Mr.
Jefferson can not be said to have been
the originator of Democratic principles
any more than any other man may be
s;iid to have createtl the eternal prin-
ciples of truth and justice but to him
is due tbe credit of having given them
best expression and practical applica-
tion. Conceived but rarely practiced
in the earliest associations of govern-
ment recorded by history and preser-
ved like a sacred fire in the writings
of the philosophers and economists of
the succeeding ages it remained for
Mr. Jefferson—himself a profound stu-
dent a philosopher and practical sta-
tesman—to insist that the Democratic
principle of popular rule was not onlj-
correct in ethics but feasible in prac-
tice. lie had tbe genius by tbe power
of his pen—for he was no orator—to
impress upon his countrymen in a ser-
ies of public documents the wisdom
of his political philosophy and to him
was assigned the preparation of that
great declaration of the grievances of
the colonies which not only gave birth
to the new American nation but has
since served as a model for every peo-
ple seeking the boon of self govern-
ment.
But. we frequently hear ii urged.
Mr. Jefferson is out of date. That in
this advanced stage of . the world's
progress in this age of steam and
electricity and the myraid forms ot
new application of science and skill to
human comfort and tbe production of
riches that the principles of Jefferson
are no longer applicable to our new
problems and conditions. I admit
that to some extent our constitution
may not be perfect indeed it was the
subject of serious criticism at the
time of its adoption but its faults are
rather those growing out of the com-
promises of the convention and the
imperfectiou of human expression
than in spirit and purpose. As stated
in the preamble the design of the con-
stitution besides forming "a more
perfect union” was to "establish jus-
tice insure domestic tranquillity pro-
vide for the common defense promote
the general welfare and secure the
blessings of liberty."
It may lie that necessity will dictate
changes or further amendments of the
fundamental law in order to reap the
fruition of its expressed purposes but
when that exigency arises and when
that work is undertaken where shall
we seek for a more pertinent source
of wisdom or safer guide to shape our
task than in Mr. Jefferson?
Times change and men change with
them but the principles of Jefferson
tin* fundamental creed of our great
Democratic party like the laws of
Moses or the simple rules of the mul-
tiplication table are as fixed and Im-
mutable as the eternal stars. Modern
arithmeticians and lightning calcula-
tors may devise new applications of
the science of numbers but none have
yer improved upon the simple system
of numerals invented by tbe Arabian
in the desert sands thousands of
yeara ago. No modern statesman or
philosopher has yet improved upon
the theory of government as stated by
Mr. Jefferson when he wrote “all men
are created free and equal.” Not
equal in mind and body bnt equal in
their civil rights. “That they are en-
dowed by their creator with certain
inalienable rights.” except when for-
feited to society for the commission of
crime and "that among these are life
liberty and the pursuit of happiness;
that to secure these rights govern-
ments are instituted among men de-
riving their just powers from the con-
sent of the governed."
This is the American idea the idea
of the Democratic party that it is the
province of government to protect the
weak and innocent against the strong
and vicious giving equal and exact
justice to all. special privileges to
none making the sum of good govern-
ment—to again quote Mr. Jefferson's
words—“A Wise and frugal govern-
ment which shall restrain men from
injuring one another shall leave them
otherwise free to regulate their own
pursuits of industry and improvement
and shall not take from the mouth of
labor the bread it has earned.”
These are trite principles to be
sure but not too trite to be kept con-
stantly in mind and lived up to. But
let us see. my countrymen how trite
they are in practice? Have they al-
ways imbued the minds and purposes
of tlie law-makers of our country and
if so. have not other forces sprung in-
to being capable almost of measuring
strength with the government itself
in subverting these high ideals? Like
passengers upon a ship which has
temporarily fallen into the hands of
buccanneers or been driven from her
course by the stouns of cupidity ami
passion it behooves us to get together
and examine well our compass and
rigging so that Me may know better
in which direction to steer when we
shall have again secured power in tbe
ides of 1900.
America has been making history at
rapid strides within the last few
years with a swift succession of tra-
gic events well calculated to unleash
the wild viking strain still remnant in
our veins but amidst the evil forebod-
ings of tlie pessimists on the one side
and the feverish dreams of the destin-
arians upon the other. who doubts
that the sober American people will
not yet conclude to throw Mark Han-
na overboard and with a Democratic
administration at the helm right the
old ship of state upon her course
with every flag flying and every sail
filled with the tradewinds of pros-
perity.
Without reference to our past as a
party a past including some mistakes
but filled with a glorious record of
achievement there is yet a great
work to be performed by those who re-
present the Democracy of Jefferson.
While with the general betterment of
all human conditions there has never
been a lime when tlie dollar of legr
tlinately invested capital paid so low
a return in interest uor has there ever
been an hour when the dollar earned
by labor would buy so much of all the
necessities of life we still have plu-
tocrats and proletariats: over-produc-
tion and under-production side by
side: a small class of fabulously rich
constantly growing richer at a rate
seemingly disproportionate even in a
country where wealth springs into ex-
istence as if by magic.
Statisticians estimate the total value
of real estate and personal property in
this country at near one hundred bill-
ions of dollars of which it is said less
than 60.000 persons control almost
one-half. And this same small ele-
ment according to a recent speech of
ex-I’resident Harrison holds several
billions more in stocks and bonds
less than 15 per ceni of which is ren-
dered for taxation.
While I trust Mr. Chairman I am
as securely grounded as any man liv-
ing in the’ sanctity of property rights
and the rewards of honest thrift and
while I disclaim one iota of prejudice
or hostility to incorporated capital
operating along legitimate lines—re-
cognizing as I do that by such means
much that was otherwise impossible
has been accomplished for the en-
richment and alleviation of mankind
in the aggregative—the stupendous
figures I have but briefly quoted as
well as observation force upon tbe
mind the conclusion that somewhere
in our economic processes there ex-
ists a flaw; that somewhere in the op-
eration of our Industrial forces there
is not a sufficiently equitable distribu-
tion of the creations of industry and
the fruits of labor; that while all our
Countrymen have been pursuing their
several occupations and avocations
each in a commendable effort to im-
prove his own condition and accumu-
late wealth we are rapidly approach-
ing that unjust social state which does
not accord to each a share proportion-
ate to his personal talents and dally
labor. IC our people are to continue
their strident forward movement as
an unbroken army of progress save
for tbe few who voluntarily desert nr
straggle behind none should oe booted
and spurred and permitted to bestride
the backs of their fellows in order to
forge unduly ahead.
I cannot linger to amplify this pro-
position. but herein lies a problem for
<>ur sociologists and economists more
deeply rooted and more sweeping in Its
consequences than any one of the
single issues which engage the popu-
lar mind. I shall not attempt with
the temerity of the quack or the reck-
less disregard of the charlatan to sug-
gest off hand a single cure-all for this
threatened anomalous condition.
I’erliaps no single issue no single
act of legislation could approximate
a corrective of this tendency but the
most menacing symptom that rears its
ugly head is the gigantic monopolies
iu the form of trusts. These often
unlawful combinations are gradually
securing control of the principal
branches of industry in this country
and. shielded from foreign competi-
tion by many over-protective schedules
of the Dingley law are enabled not
only to dictate tlie price of the raw
materials they utilize but maintain
the selling price of their product at.
figures sufficient to return dividends
on billions of dollars worth of water-
ed stocks and bonds. It is not only
an injustice to the consuming public
on the one hand which is denied an
adequate share of the benefits of
cheapened production but the load or
fictitious values is being increased at
a rate so disproportionate to the
strength of the beast to carry the bur-
den. that a halt must soon be called
to protect even capital itself against
an ultimately inevitable crash more
terrible and disastrous thou was the
faiai Bia< k Friday.
The undue length of time I have al-
ready consumed having in view tfie
proprieties of tlie occasion will not
permit me to extend my remarks upon
this question much less discuss the
corollary issues involved in the same
connect ion. I will suffice it by reiter-
ating my faith in the patriotism and
intelligence of the American people
and that guided by the principles of
Thomas Jefferson through the instru-
mentality of the Democratic party
they will yet successfully meet and
solve every domestic and political
problem which arises up to confront
them until right prosperity and hap
plness shall fill all this land as the
waters till the sea and the stars of
night till the sky.
