It is due to Robertson to say that public sympathy is with him; that a great majority of the people are sorry for him. But no one manifests any regret for Mr. Dooly.

Wells-Farg- o & Co. will doubtless make some sweep--in- g But that alone will not satisfy the people. What they are demanding is the history of this transaction and of others. What is the condition of affairs? It will not do to say it is not a matter of public business, for it is. The bank is a public institution. The people go there and deposit their funds, or at least they did go and many may want to trust to the future. But if these kind of transactions are to be kept back from the public gaze: are to be hidden, covered up or smothered & Co. over, the fact that Wells-Farhas a capital of 88,000,000 or more will do no good so far as restoring confidence & Co. owe is concerned.

If not literally from the cradle, at least from the day that he begins life on his own responsibility, to the moment he closes his eyes in death. g It is one constant, grind. No sooner is the monthly payment discharged than it, like an eating sore, starts again to inflame, to continue until its unlimited maw is temporarily satisfied again at the end of thirty days, when it repeats again and again until it stands triumphantly at the brink of the grave in which its victim lies entombed. The poor homeless renter is an object of pity . He looks forward to the grave asnis final and only escape from its never-ceasin- all; thought, It is one of those monsters that stands and keeps vigils over the last home of man and demands his dues as relentlessly from the dead as from the living. not end rent. . t 41 48 ' vt Before I had left the damned spot I .made anew resolve.

He may die before I do. He may think I was only joking. So, Mr. Editor, I seek your columns as a means of giving to the world this most solemn and serious request of all my life, that rent, so far as I am concerned, shall stop when I die. i above all else prefer cremation. If not cremation, then find some lonely spot away in the mountains or valley on which no mortal has any mercenary claim, place me there, and there let me rest in peace. Flowerless, weeds may grow over me, no grass may ever wave over my cheerless abiding place. If no such place can he found, kindly place me where the wolves may eat me, and let my bones bleach in the sun. It will be neither loss nor gain to me.

Sheets knows too much, it is said, and threatened to tell it if he was not looked after. Mayor Thompson received instructions from Senator Kearns to have Sheets restored to his former position and that is why the Mayor is blocking the. way and keeping the police'department short handed and in a turmoil. If Senator Kearns and Mayor Thompson are under obligations to Sheets it would be a good idea for them to discharge them out of their private purses instead of attempting to foist him into the public service when there is a set determination not to have him . 48 48 On the other hand the mayor's friends claim that he has had a great deal of provocation and naturally he resents the way he has been treated. It is claimed that the president of the council has been boasting among that he would that he had done his- - friends., mayor, : down the so and that-- ' he had more influence and was a bigger man than Mr. Thompson in the municipal duck pond. If Cottrell did so it was foolish and wrong, hut Mayor Thompson should be big enough to consider the source and not allow such petty jealousies and bickerings to interfere with the good of the public service. Truth always thought he wa9 big enough for that. DONT BE FOOLISH. The National Horaeseekers Associacontion has matured three of B. tracts 81,000 each for W. Boyd of 542 West Second South street.
