STRONG WORDS
(Concluded fioin I'.irc S.
Itik money from thcko very people. The Judges
know they arc l.vliu? and so docs everjbody else.
1 think it could he pioven that there hive
been fourteen men in each bramh of our city
councils handed together In a sjndliata of crime.
They hive hid heads who 'done business.' as
they call It, with the bribers, who were desirous
of imtlini; through or defeating certain pieces
of legislation, 'ihe.se leaders flcd the price for
each Aote and ucclved the monej'.
haxdki) loairnir.n.
Thej" hive been handed together in thievery
and they aie now bindcd together In perjuij-,
jet they are the lulcrs of our city. Thiough
all this the Chilstlan men or this city didn't
do anj thing. They might have grumbled a lit
tle, s.ijlng It wasn't right, but Biumbllng isn't
lislng up and stamping out the evil.
When violatois of the law nie ane-tid and
t.il.eu into court there conns the dilliculty of
selecting .1 jurj-. Win 11 jury commissioners have
In en elected in the past their ch.uactcrs have
been left out ot the inicslion. The character
of one of tin 111 I know to be infamous. These
jiny coiiiiuis-,ioncis select the names to bo put
Into the juiy wheel and these names aie drawn
out when a jurj' is requlied.
I Know a family of six biothers, all honest,
uptight, decent citiens, whose names lnve never
been diavvn from that wheel, though they have
lived hero all their lives. They have not been
drawn because the two jurj- commissioner 1 ex
clude the judge, whoso actions are above re
pioach desiie tint the juries shall be ilelusul.
When the last Juiics vveie drawn we deshed
to have one uf the icpresentatlves of the league
picscnl at the drawing. He was told to ionic
on TbiiiMliy; that the diawing would take plicc
on that d.ij-, but when be iMiuu he was tuhl
lhat il had taken place on Wcdncsdij. 'I hey
were afiaid to let anjbndy hec them at their
work, 'lime are noble, tine men to be found
on juucs in this coiinlj-, hut they are not as
nuuiuoiis ns thej- ought to be.
It is openlj' alliged that (.ome firms of law
vers in this lily Mieeeed in having men nn
juiics who can be depended upon to give them
u veuliit whether they have law- or Justice mi
their side or not. If this is tme, these hvvjii
should stop it and it it is false they should
come out and deny it.
ANXIOUS TO SKItVi:.
When the case ot filler came up In coint last
week among the juiors was .1 nun named Lot
tus who when called swoie that he via-, not pic
judiced in favor of the defendant and had no
relition to the case, lie was set aside and it
developed liter that he was intimately issociited
with the whole infamous clique. Ho tried hud
by perjuring himself to get on tli.it jurj-. It
has giown so that the honest pioteeutors have no
mote chance before many juiics than if they
weie wooden men. This soil of thing has gone
nn until its lolteimess lias tniclled to heaven.
Take the aldermen, then. 'J here aro alder
men in this city holding ollice today who issue
f.il-e warants fot the aircst of lie minus peeple.
'the constables can't tluil them, of course; they
probtblj- don't attempt to and them the costs
aie jut placed on the loiinlj. .Tiist ttilnl: of
ill Tho taxpajers of this citj- ale compelled

Then take the saloon question, both nn
Peciwel and licensed. We've succeeded in rlos
In,' up the found- prettj- thntoughly but tlieie
me .100 or MO llcen-cd saloon keepers in this
cltj- and not one of them keeps the law. They
lei me tlieie Is one siloon keeper in the penli.d
city wbii keeps the law but I don't belli ve it.
1 novct knew- a saloonkeeper jet who could tell
die truth and keep the law. 'Ibo violation of
the law is ,1 habit with them.
Tlieie is one thing nunc I wl-h to speak about
and that is the ilc theater. I uiidelstand Jon

01 rui.u.s TIIKIti:.
Our .-gent went Into this theater a llltlc while
ago ami saw tho mijni ,if this cltj and the chief
of police tlieie, 'Ihej' hail come to ilispoi I tlie

The (speaker then told of the organ
ization of the Municipal league for tho
purpossu of prosecuting tho viola tuts ot
law. "Tho time In coming," mild he,
"when the people must, nnd will, be
aroused to a hense of their duty, "When
these gentlemen ionised nt tho obstacles
before them this question was put to
them during a dlseuss.lou: It may take
one, two, thiee or live years; it may

And tho answer cinuo from every nutn
yes."

"A great ciiho in now rending, I
btlltve with tho hole lnlenseness of
my couvlJtlon that tire defendant Is
guilty and that tho Jury idiould re
turn him fro. I liopo that not only
he but nil tho othor-i may bo retiuned
guilty. If this Is not done, it would
not be to the shanio of tho Municipal
U-agus; It would bo to our ohame,
each and every ono of us, and tho
outrngo would be our outrage," Ho
then refened to !;. 11. Sturges, tho
leader in tho reform movement, n3

bei'H. BISHOP MADE AN ADDEESS.
Nowman Club Enjoyed a Visit from
Its Honorary President.
Kspeclul Interest attached to last
night's meeting or the Newman Maga
zine club by reason of the presence of
its honorary president, ltlght Itev.
Ulshnp lloban, ami the fact that It was
tho last meeting to be attended by Its
moderator, How ,T. ,T. Lotighrun, H. T.
li., who loaves today, In company with
How J. W. Malone, of Green Kldge, fur
an extended course of study In Home.
Tlie regular literary programme wni
set over till tho next meeting, that tho
club might hear from ltlshop Hob, 111
an account of his travels In Europe,
which ho graciously consented to give
at tht) elub's earnest solicitation. The
bishop preceded his address by paying
a glowing tribute to the. late lamented
moderator und originator of tho soci
ety, Hew D. J. MacGoldrlck.
"ifls death was a great loss," said
Bishop Hoban. "Ho was my right
hand in many activities, and I do not
know how I can fill hl place. Ho was
one of the brightest of men, I knew
him, possibly, as none of you knew
him. Ho discussed topics with me
which probably you did not hear him
on. The brilliancy of tho man was
certainly marvelous, and equally mar
velous was the humility, kindness and
gentleness that was coupled with his
intellectuality. I do not know when I
shnll meet his like again."
Heferrlng to the appioachlng depart
ure of Hew Loughran, tho bishop spoke
in warm terms of commendation of the
young priest who succeeded Father
MacGoldrlck as the head of tho soel-etj-,
nnd expressed regret that he was
to sever his connection with it. "Father
MacGoldrlek's mantel fell on worthy
shouldeis," the bishop said. "You will
miss him, too." In concluding, be as
sured the club of his deep interest in
its work, nnd that he would constitute
himself a sort of step-father to see to
it that the work inaugurated by Father
MacGoldrlck, und continued so nbly by
Father Loughran, would be prosecuted
zealously.
He announced that ono of the tasks
he would have them undertake was a
study of sociology. Such a study, he
said, would have a tendency to incite
an interest that would bo prolific of
gteat good. Hlshop Hoban Is a very
close student, or it might better bo
said, an eminent scholar In sociology,
and should be direct the club's study
in this subject, the members will be
accorded a rare treat.
On motion of Attorney John ,T. Mur
phy, seconded by It. C. .Wilis, a rising
vote of thanks was tendered the retir
ing moderator. Hew Father Loughran
responded fittingly, nnd Hew J. J. Coro
ner, of Town mln, who was one of tho
visitors, spoke a few words of com
mendation of the work of tho organ
ization. Tlie bishop's account of his European
trip was given In an informal way and
was along the lines of the Interview he
accorded The Tribune yesterday.

Autumn Dress Goods
When we say (as we do say) that there never was such another showing as this itt
any Scrautou store, wc speak with the calm confidence of accurate knowlodge. Facts
as big as this need no verbal embroidery: No exaggeration could be bigger than
many of our simple truths. Largest in quantities, greatest in varieties, supreme in
exclusiveness, unrivalled in beauties. A quartette of stout claims.
Add a fifth jwe permit no lower price than our lowest price. Whatever we sell
is fairly priced, aud no price is fair that is higher than others ask for the same qual
ities. So, when we say fair prices, we say it all.
It was reserved for the style setters of this season to give the most positive dis
tinction to plain weaves. Their mandate is praiseworthy and purely sensible. All
women admire and desire the simple elegance of unobtrusive fabrics. We give im
pulse to the prevailing tendency by offering unusual values in Broadcloths, Vene
tians, Camel's Hair Serges, Poplins, Whipcords, Prunellas and other weaves. Tho
quotations represent an effort to convey an idea of the true goodness of these materi
als. However, types have proved incapable of performing the task. Eyesight is our
main reliance. Come and see the displays. That's the convincing way.

Chapteif 1 1 About Black Dress Goods
Knowing ones predict an increased popularity for black dress fabrics this fall and winter. There seemt
to be much plausibility in the prophesy, judging from this remarkable collection, enlarging almost
daily. Makers have been vieing with each other toward that end. Never have they produced designs
in black goods so rich, never variety so extensive. Perhaps this is more particularly true of the Vene
tians, Prunellas and Camel's Hair effects. And there's a vast number of line silk and wool fabrics hera
now. Altogether the gathering is an interesting one worth studying. Visit the Black Dress Goods
Department, just as you would any other department in the store without feeling any obligation ta
buy. Just a little list, illustrative of range of choice :
