FRIDAY, MAY 4, 1S94

IT was a clean sweep from Goose Nibble to Bucktown.

NOT a Democrat stirvived Tuesday's cyclone. It was more terrible ..than.a Grecian earthquake.

TIIKKK are just as many Democrats this year as ever but they seem to be voting the Republican ticket. .:

TL'KRDAV'S elections indicate that the people are becoming very tired of the three C.'s—Cleveland, Congress and Coxeyism.

THK Cincinnati Comcrcial- Gazette thinks by adopting the tactics of the Indiana Republican platform on silver the silver Senators can hold the key to tariff legislation.

Tim pleasantest dream a Democrat can have is that the calendar has been turned back two years and that he has once more the chance to vote against turning out the Republican party.

THE sugar trust and the whisky trust are controling the Senatorial end of the Democratic party, and the dickering that is going on between the Senators and the trusts is the national scandal.

THK severest earthquake recorded for several years is that which has happened in Greece. The Grecian earthquake is infinitesimal compared with the shaking up the Democracy will experience this fall.

TIIK Democratic fight in the Senate against a change of date for the going into operation of the tariff bill is foolish. The date named in the bill is June :S0, and nobody imagines that the measure will be passed by that time.

DEMOCHATS are now convinced that a '•surplus in the treasury" is not half so terrible a thing as their orators and organs painted it three or four years ago. They begin to realize that a surplus is more easily managed than is a deficit.

INSTKAD of considering propositions to inflate the currency, Congress would do much better to devise means for giving circulation and usefulness to the vast amount of money that is now lying idle in the banks because nobody wants to borrow it at any price.

HAVING legislated with John Sherman in finance, and with Thomas li. Reed in parliamentary usage, the Democrats in Congress are now receding from free trade into modified McKinleyism. Their tariff bill as now proposed is a botched job in protection.

THK extreme moralist and the extreme tough met Tuesday on common ground. Handel and Grimes were not good enough for the one and •too good for the other. It is similar to the State Liquor League and the Prohibitionists making common cause against the Republican party.

THK Indianapolis Sentinel has weakened on reading Senator Voorhees out of the Democratic party. The editor has probably heard from the proprietor who is in Paris by the grace of the Senator. Daniel can favor the trusts to his heart's desire and the Sentinel will pat him on the back.

CHAIRMAN GOWDV, of the Republican State Central Committee, has given it out that the campaign in this State will open out all along the line on the first of September, two weeks earlier than it began in 1S92. The battle will then be waged ^unceasingly until the polls close in November. General Har rison will be one of the speakers and the State will be overrun by men of national reputation. It promises to be a red hot campaign so far as the Republicans are concerned.

Tin Senate, under the present administration, has become a veritable broker's shop, and Senators deal in stocks while on the floor of the Senate as conveniently as if they were in the New York Stock Exchange. They have a private wire leading to the Western Union office in Washington which they use in buying and selling whisky, sugar, white lead and other stocks which are affected by the reported changes made from time to time in the Senate tariff bill I he Democrats of the Senate have surrendered, body and souls, to the various trusts. The President and Secretary Carlisle have now taken a hand in the deal to frame a tariff bill that will be acceptable to the stock jobbing schemers.

KEYNOTES OF THE CAM PAIGN. Ex-President Harrison struck one of the keynotes of the campaign of 1894 when he said, in his speech at the State convention on the 25th of April, that he believes the free use of siiver, on an international agreement, next to protection, would be most helpful towards raising the country out of its present business depression. He did not say, in so many words, that he favored that part of the platform looking towards increased duties, or a higher tariff, on the products of other nations which refuse to negotiate with us for an international standard of value, but as he did not dissent therefrom it is to be presumed that he approved the whole platform. Indeed, he could hardly favor a bimetallic international standard, and at the same time oppose so reasonable a measure for bringing about that event.

The Sentinel and the News, as might have been expected, oppose this part of the platform, but they do not at all agree in their reasons for opposing it. The Sentinel, while in favor of international bimetalism, doubts whether the United States alone can induec England to come into an international agreement. The News doubts whether or not bimetalism is desirable, and insists that if it is, England has too much self respect to allow herself to be forced into an agreement touching the matter. The News speaks of the platform declaration as a measure of retaliation, and avers that retaliation is a game that two can play at, and is therefore dangerous. But the proposition of the platform touching bimetalism has not the semblance of retaliation in it. There is no more retaliation in the proposed measure than there would be in the refusal of one man to swap horses with another because the latter was not willing to swap on fair terms. We simply propose to say to England, "if you are not willing to trade with us on terms that are fair and equitable, we shall decline to trade with you at all: if you are not willing to agree upon an international currency with which we can carry on international commerce, then we shall decline to have any commerce with you."' Is there anything unfair in all this, or anything that looks the least like coercion? Is it not simply a policy to counteract England's unjust attempt to coerce us into her policy of gold monometalism-.1

The Sentinel, in the article to which we have alluded, very truthfully says: "The remainder of the world can get along without England very well, but England cannot get along without the remainder of the world." And we can truthfully assert that the United States can get along not only without England but without any other European nation. We have, and can make and raise within our borders everything any people actually need, except tea and coffee, and these are produced exclusively by the silver currency nations. If there is really a genuine and honest purpose to establish a bimetalie currency, as a measure of value for the world, there is no real obstacle in the way.

THE RISING CVKRKST. A political cyclone swept over Indiana on Tuesday. It was as disastrous to the Democracy as a western tornado is to property. The sweep is the most complete in the history of the State. The only cities that report the election of Democratic tickets are Madison. Mt. Vernon and Washington. Ft. Wayne, usually Democratic from 2.500 to 3,000. went Republican by 400. The reliably Democratic cities of South Rend. Logansport. Terre Haute, Columbus, New Albany. Jeffersonville, LaPorte, Michigan City, Goshen. Seymour. LaFayette, Anderson, Greenfield, Hammond, Huntington. Vevay. Delphi, Valparaiso, Hartford City. Plymouth. Brazil, and otlieas broke loose from their moorings and were swept into the Republican current. The usually

Republican cities greatly increased their majorities. Never before have Republican victories been so general at the Spring election. Tuesday's breeze is but a premonition of the storm that will sweep over the State and become general throughout the countay in November.

The census statistics of farm mortgages, according to Edward Atkinson in the May Forum, warrant the following important conclusions: 1. That the larycr part of the Western farms cultivated by owners were free of any morUjatjc whatever. 2. That the Western farmers were creditors rather than debtors. •'!. That the burden of farm morUjaaes is a very light one. "In fact," he says, "the statistics of this investigation led me to the conelusion that there existed no great body of the people of any class in this country, who were, as a whole, so free from debt and so absolutely indepen dent as the Western farmers of the grain-growing states."

Mr. Atkinson brings out the startling fact that more than twenty-one per cent, of the mortgage indebtedness in the United States is on real estate in and adjacent to New York city.

l'arted.

Ellis Singer and wife have parted company and it is rumored that divorce proceedings will shortly be instituted. Mrs. Singer is a daughter of Ja Baldwin.

AX OUSEKVAXT ORGAN. The British organ at Indianapolis known as the News, has an article in its issue of Tuesday in which it criticizes the silver plank in the Republican platform and, among other things says, "so far as we have observed nobody has had a good word to say for it." If this is so then the editor of the News is more ignorant than a metropolitan editor ought to be. Of course one can shut his eyes and refuse to observe a fact, but this, by no means proves that the fact does not exist. The editor of the Newtv ought to be a more observing teacher. If he had only given due play to his faculties lie would have "observed" a most emphatic "good word" for this plank of the platform in the Cincinnati Tribune, the Cincinnati Gazette, the Chicago interOcean, and scores of other leading Republican papers throughout the country. The fact that he did not "observe" these strong and hearty endorsements of the silver plank of the platform, only shows those who who wish to keep posed in regard to the trend of public sentiment, had better "subscribe" for some:paper whose editor occasionally "observes" what is going on in the world. We venture to predict that if the gold monometalists of England should call a public meeting and protest against this attempt to "coeice" them, the Newts would not only "observe" it, but would publish it the next day under startling headlines, in the very fore part of its leading column.

THK' price of wool in the United vStates was never so low as now, nor the importations so great. The price has tumbled to the free trade line, and our farmers, in selling this year's clip will be able to figure out the deficit in their pocket-books due to Democratic "change."

No one says a good word for the House of Lords, and some of the young peers want to cut it and run for a seat in the Commons. If it were not for the present American Congress the Lords would think themselves the most incapable and unrepresentative body in the world.

Case of Monumental Selfishness. LEBANON, Irnl., May 3.—On May 20, 1873, the marriage of Nelson Northcut and Lottie High tower was celebrated. They went to housekeeping in North street in a home handsomely furnished beforehand by Northcut. He left home unceremoniously and without apparent cause one night in October, 1874, and despite the persistent efforts of his wife to locate him no tidings ever came. She married Charles Blaine in 1878. They have since then resided on their farm just west of this city. After so strangely leaving here Northcut had wandered into California and married, five children being born to this union. His wife No. 2 died recently, and Wednesday, with his children, the eldest almost a grown woman, he ar' rived in this city and made straightway for wife No. 1 and pleaded for her to return to him. She refused, and summoning her husband from the field Northcut was requested to leave. He did so, threatening to test his claim upon her in the courts.

Matthews (Jndccidcil What to Do. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 3. Gov. Matthews received a dispatch from Hammond, Lake county, Wednesday,' saying that the Chicago industrial army, under the command of Randall, had left Grand Crossing and would be at Hammond today. The executive is being urged to issued a proclamation against further entrance of the Kelly army into Indiana and is seriously considering the matter, but has not yet decided upon a course of action. The Ohio health authorities have appealed to the Indiana authorities to stop the march of Kelly, and this was one of the things that constrained Secretary Metcalf Wednesday to call the attention of the governor to the dangers that might result from the invasion of tramps from the smallpox districts of Chicago.

Vote Against State Arbitration. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 3.—The labor legislative council of Indiana was in session Wednesday and adopted resolutions declaring in favor of a more equitable system of taxation and recommending the enactment of an efficient child labor law and of a law for factory inspection also asking the political parties to nominate candidates for the legislature who are in sympathy with the demands of organized labor, and in the event they do not that organized labor nominate candidates itself. Resolutions in favor of state arbitration of labor difficulties and commending those representatives who voted for labor measures in the last general assembly were voted down.

May Place ilaugliey on the Stand. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 3.—The opening statement of the defense in the bank-wreckers' trial Wednesday showed that the Collins have profited somewhat by the recent interruption of the trial, which has given them complete knowledge of the evidence against them. Their lawyers gave a history of all their dealings with the looted bank and smoothly explained away all the fraud charged by the government. The federal authorities are believed to have accumulated new evidence, however, and will have a number of surprises before the end of the week. It ia given out that President Haughey may be put on the stand to testify against the Coflins.

IN THE DOCl.

Gen. Coxey Is Made a Prisoner 1B Washington.

HE IS ARRESTED IN THE COURTROOM,

Compelled to Furnish Bail to Answer oc Friday to Charges ot Trespassing" on the Capitol Grounds—Debs Seta

Down on Sovereign.

COXEY AKKKSTED.

WASHINGTON, May 3.—Coxey was in the prisoner's dock at the police court Wednesday morning, his anxiety on account of his lieutenant, Carl Browne, having led him into trouble when he least expected it. lie had come to court to testify in behalf of Browne, who was charged with unlawfully entering the capitol grounds and displaying a flag or banner. District Attorney Mullaney when he examined the case found Coxey equally guilty with Browne and a warrant was accordingly issued for him, but his appearance in court prevented any difficulty about service. Several congressmen were present in the court during the proceedings, among them being Messrs. Baker, of Kansas Boen, Minnesota Caffeen, Wyoming Kem, Nebraska, and Lafe Pence, Colorado. The latter, with Adjt. Gen. Tarsnev, of Colorado, has been retained as counsel for Coxey. Judge Miller, when the question arose relative to their being released on personal bonds to appear for trial Friday morning, held that real estate security alone would suffice. Coxey offered to put up $500 cash, but such security would not be tolerated by the judge. Eventually, however, Frank Hume, a wholesale grocer of this city and a member of the Virginia legislature, qualified as bondsman for Browne and Coxey and they were set at liberty.

Suyg He Is Not Guilty.

In discussing his arrest the chief of the commonweal said: ''i am certain tliat I have not been guilty of lawbreaklng. I saw Vies XJrosldont 3tevenson at 9 o'clook Tuesday morning and he told me that he would consult with Speaker Crisp about setting aside the regulation forbidding speechmaking on the capitol grounds. I am certain that the law is unconstitutional and I wanted to test it I left my army and walked peacefully to the capitol steps bearing no banner or devioe, which the law forbids. I demanded of tlie police the exerolse of my right. When they refused me I asked If could read a protest. They refused that and I made no attempt to speak or read, merely asking them to accept the protest, which they refused. I turned and made my way from the grounds. If there was lawlessness in my action I fall to BOO it. I did not know whether the vice president had concluded to let me speak and I wished to te3t the law. Marshal Browne walked over the grass contrary to law, but he did it because the mounted polioe were trying to ride him down."

Will Make It a Contest of Kndurance. Coxey'S plan is to enter upon a contest of endurance. He proposes simply to stay here and wait, lie said: "We will be joined by thousands of other unemployed. I intend to drop every other occu p.ition and stay right here in Washington until congress acts one way or the other upon my bills. If congress ad journs without giving relief to tho unem ployed we will turn our attention to tho president and demand an extra session. Our presence here, and we will number thousands, will force action The army must bo fed and congress, sooner or later, will be compelled to provide for it. Whether we will make any further demonstration at the capitol remains to be seen. We are here not to commit wrongs or to break laws, but to convince oongress of tho evil result of the legislation of the last twenty-tlve years and to demand relief. Washington is a beautiful city, and if the laboring men of America must starve it might as well bo here as anywhere else."

Afraid of Disease.

Affairs at the camp of the array of the commonweal are in a quiescent state. Health Officer Hammil has made a report to the district commissioners condemning the lot on which Coxey's army is encamped as a place likely to breed disease. He says that with so large a body of men assembled in such an inclosure, with the probability of increased members, fear may be had they may breed typhus fever also that isolation would be impossible in case of contagious diseases. He recommends that the army should be removed to a place provided with shelter and suggests the Ivy City race grounds as a suitable place.

Wants mi Investigation.

Sir. Johnson (dem., O.) created a sensation of brief duration in the house shortly after it assembled by introducing a resolution calling for a congressional investigation of the beating of citizens by the police during the Coxey demonstration at the capitol Tuesday. He urged it as a question of privilege, declaring that the offense occurred on the capitol grounds and purported to be in defense of members of congress.

Speaker Crisp ruled that the resolution did not present a question of personal privilege, and ruled it out of order.

Johnson asked unanimous consent to immediately consider the resolution, but there was a chorus of objections, and the resolution was thus summarily killed.

Representative Bell (pop., Eeb.) introduced a joint resolution to provide for the appointment of a joint congressional committee "to devise means for the employment of the idle men of the country, restrict immigration, start up our mines, increase the currency and prohibit the issuing of interest-bearing bonds without the authority of congress, and for other purposes."

Will Demand a Train.

DES MOINES, la., May 3.—At a meeting of the Trades and Labor assembly Wednesday night it was decided to ask all the laboring people of Des Moines to meet in front of the assembly hall at 9 a. m. to-day and march in procession with Kelly's army to the capitol to make a demand upon Gov. Jackson for a train for the Kelly army. The meeting was largely attended. CoL Speed. Gen. Weaver and some of the local labor leaders spoke, and the tenor of all the speeches was that this was the only way in which a train could be secured.

Debs Sits ou Sovereign.

There will be no strike on the railroads in Iowa even if Kelly's army is required to march from Des Moiutsa to

the Mississippi river. Grand Master Workman Sovereign's threat has been neatly answered by President Debs of the American Railway union. When Sovereign's interview appeared in which he threatened that the Knights of Labor and the American Railway union would espouse the cause of tho army if Kelly's men were not furnished transportation tho members of the local lodge of the railway union were much exercised, and the following telegram was sent to President Debs at St Paul: "It is reported here by Sovereign that the American Railway union men will be called out in case transportation is refused Kelly. Is there any truth in this? Our men oppose such a move. Answer quick."

President Debe' response to the above was as follows: "Pay no attention to the report. It is false." The officers of the Ameriean Railway union had quite a stormy interview with Mr Sovereign Wednesday morning, and he was told plainly that the railroad men in Des Moines would not strike unless they had a grievance, and that they were not under the domination of the Knights of Labor.

Army in Ual Condition.

Meanwhile the army is getting in a deplorable condition. Food is getting rather short and there are seven men in the hospital, of whom six are suffering from pneumonia, and several of them are pronounced by physicians from the city to be seriously sick,

Kelly on Coxey.

Gen. Kelly speaks his mind freely about Coxey's escapade in Washington. He says he showed no generalship whatever in precipitating matters, and that he should have waited until he (Kelly) arrived. He said that Coxey had but little support in the east, and as for Carl Browne, he knew him well and characterized him as a "conceited ass."

I'rye's Men Turn Book Agents* INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 8,-r-Gen. Frye has converted his commonweal forces into an army of book-sellers and started his men over this city selling copies of a new book brought out by a Chicago firm entitled "The Story of the Commonweal." Gen. Frye says his object has always been to make his army self-supporting. The men are tired of walking and will sell enough books to buy freight car transportation to Washington.

Kandall in I ml tana.

CHICAGO, May S.—With increased numbers and good discipline Chicago's commonweal army tramped merrily Wednesday from Grand Crossing to Hammond, Ind. The army, 300 strong, camped for the night on the grounds of an abandoned schoolhouse.

A COAL FAMINE.

Predictions Made That It Is Sure to Come as a Result of the Strike. COLUMBUS, O., May 8.—The great miners' strike is fast approaching a critical point in its operations. That there is to be a coal famine in some sections if the strike continues a week or two is no longer a matter of speculation. Meanwhile the strike is spreading, and reliable information received by President|McBride is to the effect that 5,000 more miners are out now than ever before since the strike was inaugurated. There are now 165 000 men in voluntary idleness as a result of the strike for living wages.

The reports received illustrate the fact that the strike fever is contagious and has not yet reached its limit On the other hand, there is no sign of weakening at any point along the line, and the letters received from all points at miners' headquarters indicate that the miners are everywhere confident of success. They are receiving much sympathy and encouragement.

ALBIA, la., May 3.—It looks now as if 9,000 miners in Iowa would join the strike prevailing in the United States. The state miners' convention assembled in this city Wednesday morning con trary to expectations. There was an unusually large attendance, fifty delegates being present, representing 4,000 miners.

No man can afford to have a sick Wife or Daughter, nor, in such times as these, A big Doctor bilL Zoa Phora cures the sickness, saves the bills.

The sessions were secret. Cincinnati, Mystic and Centerville sent delegates instructed to vote for a strike. It was reported that the delegates from Pekay, Neb., and Ottumwa were instructed otherwise, but this proved untrue and they will vote for a strike. The coal operators evidently expect a strike. While the action of the convention cannot be positively predicted, the majority sentiment of the meeting is in favor of the strike.

PANA, 111., May 3.—As a result of the arrival here of the body of union miners from Taylorville and Edinburg Tuesday night the miners held amass meeting Wednesday morning, which was largely attended, and a strike was declared at the four mines of Pana by a two-thirds majority. It is said that an effort will be make to prevent miners who desire to work from doing so. The citizens, however, promise to furnish ample protection to the men who want to work. Mayor Hayward has issued a proclamation warning the strikers not to interfere with any one desiring to work and that he would use all of his official power to give such men protection.

The concert at Darlington Monday night by the Baldwin Octette, composed of the Baldwin Ladies' Quartette and the Baldwin Male Quartette, will be well worth hearing. Harrv Maxwell will sing a solo and Miss Mamc Wilhite will give two selections.
