THE THIRD \RTY.

Tho third political party for this cam paign year may be said to have taken form at St. Louis. It is composed, it it may be said, of almost all the elements antangonistic to tho democratic and re publican parties, among them the farmers alliance, tho free silverites, tho prohibitionists, and others. The convention will meet to select its candidates at Omaha, Nebraska, July 4th. After that time tho fight will open all along the line. Among some of the declarations of tho new party wo observe the following as avowed at the meeting of the mixed assembly at St. Louis: "1. We declare that the union of labor forces of tho United States, this day accomplished, permanent and perpetual. May its«pirit enter into all hearts for the salvation of the republic and the uplifting of mankind. "2. Wealth belongs to him who creates it. Every dollar taken from industry without an equivalent is robbery. If any will not work neither shall ho eat. Thejinterests of rural land urban labor are the same their enemies are identical. "3 Wo demand a national currency safe, sound and flexible, issued by tho general government only,a full legal tender for all debts, public and private, and that without tho use of banking corporations, a just, equitable means of circulation,at a tax not. to exceed 2 per cent, as sot forth in the sub-treasury plan of the Farmer's Alliance, or some better system also by payment in dischargo of its obligation for public improvements. "5. We demand free and unlimited coinage of silver. "5, We demand that the amount of 'circulating medium bo speedily increased to not less than S50 per capita. "G. We demand a greater incomo tax. "7. We believe that the money .of the country should be kept as much aB possible in tho hands of the people, and hence, we demand that all national and state revenues shall bo limited to the necessary expense of the government economically and honestly administered. "8. We demand that postal savings banks bo established by the government for tho safe deposit of the earning of the people, and to facilitate exchange. "9.- Your sub-committee upon land plank beg to submit to your approval tho following The land, including all the natural resources of wealth, is the heritage of all the people, and should not bo monopolized for speculative purposes, and alien ownership of lands should bo prohibited. All lands now' held by railroads and other corporations in excess of their actual needs, and all lands now owed by aliens should be reclaimed by the government, ana hold for actual settlers only.

No itemized statement of tho cost of tho electric light plant up to date has yet been published. Tho public are waiting anxiously.

INJURY OF MOBS.

The action of the mob at Indianapolis in the street car troubles and tho subsequent action of a few persons in having tho car lino thrown into the hands of a receiver is beginning to have an effect contrary to that desired by its best citizens. A correspondent of tho Enquirer in speaking of this said:

The peculiarjtactics employed to down the Street Railway Company has alarmed investors in Indianapolis enterprises.

An Eastern firm to-day recalled a loan of 860,000 which it was about to make on a manufacturing plant. A manufacturer who had plans drawn for a large factory, changed his intention, and has offered the site for salo. -The Indianapolis Chair Works, which was preparing for a sevonty-fivo thousand dollar addition, instructed tho architect to tear up the plans, and two investments of outside capital, in which tho papers were ready for the final signature, were also cancelled. These withdrawals have given great alarm to local business men.

Capital is timid and in a city which allows a mob and a few influential men to countenance unlawful proceedings has every reason to be. Labor hasrighls and so has capital, and both are and should bo controlled by law. Judged by the reports last week tho majority of the city encouraged the mob in its conduct toward tho street car company organization. Non residents notice these things men with jnoney to invest observe closely. Tho quotations above indicate that very plainly, and conservation, law abiding people will regret such work.

AN IMAGINATIVE "cORffiESPONENT. Tho Crawfordsville correspondent of the Indianapolis News must have fine imaginative powers judged by the following stuff he sent over to that sheet last week:

CRAWFORDSVILLE, March 3.—The township trustees of Montgomery county are stirred up over the warlike attitude of County Commissioner John Fullen. The trustees have for years exercised discretionary powers in the management of their offices, and with knowledge and silent concent of the people have frequently transcended its priviledges. Mr. Fullen declared that this must stop, and he intends to wage war against them and hold them, not only to tho strict limit of the law in the future, but make them answer for past infringements. Dr. W. J. Owsley, trustee of Franklin township, has already resigned and others are threatening to follow.

In the first place Fullen is not the commissioners—he is simply one of them. He might claim one thing and Byers and Peterson another, and the decree of tho later two would be the order that would be obeyed. In the second place Dr. Owsley resigned because of professional duties—not on account onemity toward Fullen. In tho third place none or the trustees are taking of resigning, as neither Fullen, nor the other two Commissioners are seeking to restrain them from their official duties. Tho rest of the item if thero is anyting left of it might be correct.

CONTEST OF BEASTS.

One of those disgraceful affairs known as a prize fight took place at New Orleans last week in the presence of 6,000 people. The principals blacked each other's eyes, smashed each others' mouths and hammered each other to the intense delight of the select audience an audience composed very generally of the scum and refuse from many cities of the west and north. The more vigorous tho blows, the bloodier the beasts engaged in it, tho geater the sat isfaction to the audience of highly cultivated tastes. And what of a civilization that permits such exhibitions? Mexican bull fights would assume respectability beside them. Instead of sending missionaries abroad to civilize the heathen would it not be better to keep them at homo to work in tho field which these people roam over. The best medicine to bo administered to such people is a five or ten years imprisonment at hard labor in the penitentiary, tho same that forgers, horse thieves and other felons receive. This would place a damper at once on all aspirants for pugilistic honors, and the followers of such sport would seek other avenues in which to waste their time and money. Unless something like this is done these affairs will continue.

A MOVEMENT is on foot to make McKinley the republican candidate for president. It is claimed that ho can secure tho assistance of the Blaino forces. If ha can do so, ho can secure the nomination, because the Blaine following is much larger that tho Harrison following. Ohio, Pennsylvania and Now York would be for Blaine against Harrison. So would Iowa, Minnosota and Wisconsin. But McKinley cannot secure tho Blaine following. Blaine's reciprocity scheme made him popular. McKinley had no reciprocity clause in his tariff bill, but was fo'ced by Blaine to insert one. Blaine maintained that the 'McKinley bill would ruin the country without the saving reciprocity clause. McKinley has no claim to Blaine's strength as a limited free trader. Harrison and McKinley aro high protectionists, hold the same views .They are wedded to tho system that taxes the many to enrich tho few. The protected corporations will rally to the support of either and with either as the republican candidate, Holy John Wanamaker's "fat frying" process will bo an easv task.

THE democrats of Rhode Island have declared in convention in favor of Cleveland, and many other of tho Eastern States will do likewise.

PECULIAR PROCEEDINGS. The proceedings by which tho [street car lines wore put in running order again last week in Indianapolis cortainly, to a fair minded person, looked tyrannical, unjust and partook much of such operations as were seen during the late war, when to do a wrong act it would be termed by tho authorities "a military necessity," in order to give some color of. right to their unlawful conduct. The lines were taken away from their owners, who owed no person and wore violating no law, and placed in the hands of a receiver and business was resumed* O' course those having this done could quote law for their action by the hat full. Law can be quoted for almost every action by somo one, be it either good or bad, but when an individual or corporation cannot peaceably manage its own properly it is time a change was made. Such actions as this partake of a government controlled by a monarch, and not by the people. Simply because the owners sought to control their own property and use it as to thom seemed best they are deprived of it through some rigmarole of law and placed in the hands of others. Such movement as this may be for the public good, as some contend, but largo numbers of the people will think different.

TO THE POINT.

The address of theJGeorgia democratic committee regarding the machine methods of Hill and his followers in New York to obtain the nomination for President are certainly well expressed. It says:

The undemocratic action of the machine in New York indicates a purpose to make the will of the people subservient to the greed of politicians,we therefore believe that the time has come for the active and resolutute organization of the democratic masses in Georgia, lest the sentiment of the people in this state, as in New York, find expression through the machination of political intrigue.''

That is the whole thing in a nut shell. Hill's entire boom is the work of a political machine, and is not the promptings of the masses. Aided in localities by men of the John E. Lamb style of politicians, whose whole idea is spoils and not statesmanship, they seek to make it appear that there is demand for Hill when there is not. Tho democracy of this country want an administration such as distinguished that of Cleveland, bold, honest, outspoken and in the interest of the people, and they will not think a machine man will fill the bill.

BLAINE'S FAMILY TROUBLES.

All great men as well as those not great have their weak points. In 1884 James G. Blaine, astute politician as he is, allowed himself to be drawn into a discussion of his family troubles and through which he foolishly ordered suit to be brought against John C. Shoemaker of the Indianapolig Sentinel,' but which he dropped very soon after and retired disgusted and demoralized Now he has strangely again aired the famih linen thorough the worthless conduct of a son in bis matrimonial ventures of five of six years ago. His son, no doubt is a contemptible scamp, and the very least said about him the better for Mr. Blaine. The former wife of the son in answer to Mr. Blaine's letter promises to make it warm for them, and attention will be more strongly drawn toward the trouble than ever, all of which arises from the Secretary foolishly putting in his shovel.

TOM Stilwell announces himself again this year for the third or fourth time as a candidate for Mayor. Stilwell was one of tho movers which fastened on the city through the present water works system an annual debt of §5,000 for twenty years, and very foolishly is inclined to think in this ho did a wonderful good thing for the city. The tax payers have never viewed it just that way, and scores of them have opposed him at every nominating election since then and will do so again. He will be defeatod for the nomination just as ho has been before, and his friends should advise him to subside.

DESERTED T0¥NS.

It is said thero are twenty well-built towns in Kansas without a single inhabitant t6 waken the echoesof their dessrted streets. Saratoga has a thirty-thousand-dollar opera house, a largo brick hotel, a twonty thousand dollar school house and a number of fine busi ness houses, yet thero is nobody even to claim a place to sleep. At Fargo a twenty-fivo-tbousand-dollar school house stands on the side of tho hill, a monument to the bond-voting craze. A herder and his family constitute the sole population of what was onco an incorporated city..

UNDER Republican rule and manipulation tho World's Fair management to date seems to bear an unsavory odor.- Proof of this is the fact that Secretary Butterworth steps down and out of his position, and the reason made public for this act is tnat he would not be a party to aking Congress for a 85,000,000 appropriation without tho Board of Managers would submit a statement of the expenditures of Exposition funds to date, that Congress and tho public might see how tho business was managed. The Board of Managers could not face the music and Butterworth.
