enough to join tho order pays 50 cents a year
to support tho paper, and incidentally enrich
this argentiferous old gas bag from Nevada.
Ho poses, of course, as tho friend of labor,
as all Populists do, and to show his great
love for tho working classes his paper, which
has a circulation of 00,000 and purports to bo
Issued in Washington, is really printed In
Alexandria. Tho reason for this is that the
Typographical Union of Washington isstrong
enough to regulate the wagos paid printers

A REMARKABLE DOENE.
Town ItiisliiBHS I'oopl.i (Jet Great Adtor
tlslng Tlirougli Competition.
One of the must remarkable exhibitions or
competition in trade over given in this town
took place on Main street last night and whs
such a howling success that the promoters,
Louis tJoldln and 1-evi Itefowlch, the cloth
iers, can afford to shake hands and bury the
hatchet. The advertising they got out of the
scheme will more than lepay them for the
trouble and expense they incurred.
Ooldln and ltcfowleh have been in compe
tition for years and when one makes a stroke
in tho direction of display, the other
promptly puts a counter stroke in operation.
A short tlmo ago Goldiu remodelled his show
windows and celebrated the completion of the
work with a "grand opening" and hail tho
Grant band in attendance, ltcfowleh then
altered his show windows and prepared for
in opening, tioldin also announced an onun.
ing. Until men hired the Grant band for hist
flight, but, upon learning that liofowicli was
to have tho first conceit, Goldln cancelled
the engagement nnd hired the Lithuanian
band fur Wednesday. Itepair work at tho
electric light station prevented Goldln from
pioperly illuminating his plan and his open
ing was postponed to last night, at tho tamo
time liefowich's opening was to take place.
tho nrst conclusion tho people acuuainted
with the arrangements reached was that
there would bo a collision by the bands witli
each other and long before tho hour fixed
crowds gathered in front of tho stores, which
ire located opposite each other. Fortunate! v
there was no disturbance. Tho polico wcro
on hand and managed to keep passages clear
on tho pavements. At 7:10 tho Lithuanian
band appeared and marched up Main street,
on tho west side, past liefowich's store. A small
boy headed tho procession, carrying a banner
announcing the concert at Goldiu's. A few
minutes later tho Grant band left its head
quarters and followed in the wake of tho
Lithuanian band, old Peter McDcrniott, a
short, very stout and jolly-faced son of tho
Green Isle, strutting in tho rear under a
banner announcing liefowich's opening.
Tho two bands marched up tho west side of
Main street to Coal. There tho boys made
an attack on liefowich's banner with mud
balls. McDcrniott stuck to his standard un
til two mud balls struck him on tho head.
Then ho dropped tho banner and lied. The
banner was carried back to ltcfowich's in a
dilapidated condition by some boys who
threw it from side to sido on tho street en
rou to to tho store.
From Coal street tho two bands marched
down Main street on tho cist side, both play
ing as hard as lungs and Angers would
permit. Tho Lithuanian band was somo
distauco ahead of the other and was in lino
in front of Goldiu's store when tho Grant
band reached Centre street. Tho latter was
not disposed to creato a collision and on
reaching the corner crossed Main street and
inarched down past Kcfowiph's store. This did
not satisfy licfowich, however. He insisted
that tho hand lengthen its parade and his
orders ivcro obeyed. Ilero is where the most
ludicrous feature of tho evening presontcd
itself. Tho Grant band marched down Main
street to 0.ik, crossed over to the cast side of
Main, and then up past Goldiu's store. Tho
Lithuanian band was arranged in open order'
under Goblin's awning, playing a soloation
undertholcadorshlp of Prof, Zeitz.when the
Grant band passed' bctwecn.the ranks playing
a march to (ho full capacity of all instruments.
This point was looked for with great apprchem
slon by the iinmcnsethrongof spectators, but
it passed off .without tho slightest jar. Each
band held on to its own tune,, neither waver
ing or dropping n- note, and tho Grant band
passed around to Kefowich's -store in tho
samo order as it would if no other band had
been on tho street. Meanwhile Prof, Zeitz
conducted his band to tho end of tho selec
tion and when the last note sounded tho
band retired to Goldiu's store; whore tho
concert was continued until about 10 o'clock.
Tho Grant band played two selections in front
of ltcfowich's store and then went inside,
where the concert was kept up with brief
intermissions until (1 o clock. During tho
night ltcfowleh distributed cigars to tho visit
ors. Goldln had a barrel of beer on tap. It
would take two columns to detail tho various
other methods to which tho clothiers resorted
to excel each other during tho ovening, but
ouo should not bo overlooked. Goldin placed
four small hoys in front of his store with
sticks of red flro in their hands. When
Goldiu's back was turned tho boys deserted
to liefowich's camp. Col, Sebclfly outcred
into tho spirit of tho affair hy burning green
lights in front of his restaurant.

lint tho Deputies Refine to Indorse tho
Government's Hellenic.
PARIS, Mnroh 87. The chniiiber of dep
uties, by iv vote of 086 to 8T0, Iim voted for
the government's proposal of the principle
of an lnoomo tax, but linn referred the de
tails of tho scheme to a. committee. The
notion Is In tho nature of u oompromlse,
Indorsing tho principle of an lnoomo tax,
but throwing aside the details of tho gov
ernment's scheme.
According to this soliemo Incomes ot
less tlinn 8,500 frnnos ($500) were to bo ox
ompted, nnd 2,600 frnnos wore to be do
ducted from tho ns-ossment of nil taxa
ble Incomes. UptoG.OOO frnnos tho rate
of the tax was fixed at 1 per cent. ; be
tween 5,000 francs nnd, 10,000 frnnos, 2 per
cent.; between 10,003 frnnos and 80,000
francs, !) per cent, s between 80,000 nnd B0,
000 frnncs, 4 per cent, s nbovo SO.OOO francs,
5 per cent. Those progressive rates for tho
tax wore to apply only to the excess of in
comes over tho Bum coming tinder tho
next lower rates; that Is tosay, n million
aire would liavo Ills Income divided Into
flvo bonds, ouch taxed at n different rate.
Tho abolition of tho prosont house tax, by
which It was calculated that 0,600,000 per
sons would oscano direct taxation, was also
i involved in tho schemo, whllo It was ostl
j mated that tho new tux law would npply
, to 1,800,000 people, two-thirds of whom
would pny less tlinnthoyhnvo been paying
under the house tax.
