Illinois, was born in England, Apr!

grated with his parents to the Pnited
States and in 1S7o the family located
in Chicago, where young Lorimer re
ceived a public sbool education. 11!
father died soon after and at the np

winter's assistant to aid in the sup-
."rt of the family. He continued in
various trades until ssr,. when he he

the samp time he beennie prominent

if his first public positions was that

THE LABOR WORLD.
That Cuiro will have to do some
hustling to make good the population
figure set for her by the late city elec
tion is the cpinion of many. Accord
ing to the vote as recorded we have
about 23,000 people inhabiting the
thirteen hundred acres enclosed by our
levees. Two years ago a school cen
bus carefully taken by Superintendent
Clendencn, showed that we had nearly
lO.Oim population, with about fifteen
hundred additional in Future City, our
northern suburb. A great . deal may
bo drne iu two years in the way of
boosting a city's population also on
election days. '
Those Kentuckians who took si
much interest -In Cairo's moral wel

numerously signed petitions to our

From the editorials in Mr. Hearst's
American on political corruption, tp1
mitkes it plain to the miner leaders of
the Independence League' that they
must not ?xpct much boodle this
yar. It may be anticipated that Mr.
llearsl will not himself be a candidate,
for he always- opens his barrel when
h heads a ticket. This was par
ticularly evident in thse parts drr
ing his presidential campaign three
years ago when Rev. Col. Sam
Small handled the Hearst slush fund
here and tried bis best to corrupt the
lemocracy of Alexander county In
the interest of Mr. Hearst. The Rev
Col. Sam Small seems since then to
have become convinced of the sinful
jipss or mien practices an. I is now a
"irformer."

The very few families who have inherited a legal title of nobility in
regular descent from father to son no hmger form the first ranks of French
society. In matters of state they have nothing to say. In diplomacy and
in the army they arc scarcely to be found, and in tin.' leading professions
not at all. They have no power and therefore no inilm nee. They are
not the rii lu st and then-fore are not the most elegant. The greatest mil
lionaires do not think of cultivating them. Hat her they expect to be cul
tivated by them. They would smile if any should e.-teem them honored
by liecoining related in marriage with jn ople who !ear crests or coats-of-arms
upon their visiting carls or carriages. They do not regard such
things as an honor.
