FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1888.

TOM WATSON'S newspaper is in the hands of the sheriff and the Democratic party is in the hands of Coin Harvey. Yet wo are constantly assured that the cause of silver is growing.

REMEMBER how the railroads "went under" during the Democratic rule because they had not enough freight and passengers to carry, and how those railroads boom to-day, doing more business than ever, and at lower charges.

TBEASUBY statistics show that silver can be profitably mined and refined for from 16 to 40 cents an ounce. Free coinage meanB the payment of 91.39 an ounce to the silver barons. Hence their ardor for free coinage. But nobody could be blessed except the owners of silver mines and their attorneys and representatives.

AN increase of over $100,000,000 in exports and a decrease of over 8100,000,000 in imports is the record of our foreign commerce for the nine months ending September 30, 1898, compared with the corresponding nine months of the preceding year. No corresponding period in any year of the country's history has shown such a record. The total exports of the nine months ending September 30, 1898, are practically twice aB great as those of the corresponding nine months of 1888, while the imports Bhow a reduction of 12% per cent, as compared with 1888, despite the growth of our population in the meantime. The imports of merchandise in the nine months just ended are less than in any corresponding period since 1888.

ROAD REPAIRING.

THE JOURNAL has, for many years, advocated a system under which our roads would be kept in repair all the time, by letting out the repair thereof to the lowest bidder. From a pamphlet sent to this office, containing a number of state road laws, we learn that Kentucky has adopted just

Buch

a law

as we have advocated. It provides for one supervisor for the whole county, and then proceeds: "Sec. 29. In countios wherein roads are worked by taxation it shall be the duty of the supervisor, at the court house door in hie county, on the first Monday in March of each year, after twenty dayB* written or printed notice posted at each voting place in the county, to let out to the lowest And beet bidder, who shall give bond with surety approved by the supervisor, the working and keeping in repair of all the roads in said county for the term of not less than one year nor more than two years thereafter, the said work to be done as prescribed in the bonds of the contractors."

By this simple method wc could save thousands of dollars, and have good roads all the year round. The contractor would be bound, by his written obligation, to keep the surface of the road hard, smooth, and level all the time, and this would require constant work, by skilled and honest men. And we would be relieved of the expense of,an army of supervisors and superintendants, and all the road tax collected would be spent on the roads.

Kentucky commenced the building of improved roads at a very early date, and when a large part of her territory was yet a wilderness, she had constructed several hundred miles of turnpike at an average cost of over SO,000 per mile. And she has always kept ahead of most of her

Bister

6tates in

road improvements. We may therefor wisely look to her for examples in road legislation.

In a Pa'uper's Grave.

On Saturday evening, no further word having been received from Chicago, undertaker Barnhill buried Jecob Stein, the tramp suicide, in the pauper's graveyard. There it is likely the body will permanently remain, for ifis not likely that the man's relatives will call for it. The Chicago TrUmne Sunday in speaking of the case says: "The police learned yesterday that Jacob Stein, the peddler who committed suicide by hanging himself in a boxcar at Crawfordsville, Ind., Friday, and whose address was given as r,22 Canal street, had moved from that place two months ago to 486 Jefferson street. Stein was 28 years old and in poor health and circumstances. He left the city five weekB ago to go on the road."

EXPLOSION OF GAS

Wrecks the National Supreme Courtroom at Washington.

fALDABLE RECORDS LOST

Dating Back to 1792—Many I too ma In Vicinity Also Badly Damaged. Explosion Originated In the Basement Directly Beneath tlie Supreme

Court—No One Waa Hunt.

Washington, Nor. 7.—An explosion tnd fire last evening "wrecked the supreme court room and the rooms immediately adjoining it on the main floor of of the capitol. The damage is enormous. The entire central eastern part Ef the great marbLo pile from the main floor to the subterranean basement practically is amass of ruins.

The force of the explosion was so heayy that the coping st*ies on the outer walls, just east of the point where the explosion occurred, were bulged out nearly two inches, windows in all that par# of the building were blown out and locked doors were forced from their hinges quite 150 feet from the scene of it.

The explosion shook the immense structure to its foundations and was heard several squares from the capitol. It occurred in a small room tightly enolosed by heavy stone walls in the subterranean basement immediately below the main entrance to the old capitol building. In this room was a 500-liglit gas meter which was fed by a 4-inch main. The meter itself was wrecked and the gas pouring from the main caught fire. Flames Darted Hp the Elevator Shaft.

The flames originating from the explosion darted up the shaft of the elevator, which had been completely destroyed by the force of tlio explosion, and communicated with the rccord room of the supreme court, the office of the marshal of the court and the supreme court library. Before the flames could be subdued the priceless documents in the record room had been almost totally destroyed and serkus damage had been done in the marshal's office a.ud some minor rooms in the immediate vicinity.

The library of the supreme court, located immediately beneath the supreme court room, was badly damaged by fire, smoke and water, water practically destroying the great collection of law reference books.

The supreme courtroom was damaged principally by water and smoke, the lire not reaching that point. Adjoining the courtroom, however, both the marshal's office and the senate barber shop furnished food for the flames.

Only a few persons, principally officers of the capitol police, were in the building at the time, but several of tlieni had narrow escapes.

The library contains about 20,000 voltunes, and was u»ed not only by the justices of the supreme court, but "by members of congress and lawyers practicing before the supreme court. Justice Harlan said last night that the library was very valuable. Many of the works it contained would, he thought, be difficult to replace.

Records Destroyed.

The most serious damage, in the opinion of the judges of the supreme court, is to the records stored in the sub-base-ment. These included all of the records of the supreme court from 1702 to 1832. The room contains records of cases and opinions rendered by the fathers of the judiciary of the government. The documents in this room are either totally destroyed or sd"badly damaged by fire and water as to be \iseless,

Justice Harlan said that while the loss of the records was irreparable it was fortunate that the later records of the court, which are kept in the office of the clerk on the main floor, were not injured. As documents for reference at this time and Liter, Justice Harlan thought, these were of far greater value than the records destroyed.

Throughout the lower central portion of the old capitol building doors, windows and fittings in coinmitteerooms and other apartments are badly damaged. Just north of the Crypt an archway almost over the meter room was completely blown out and great masses of masonry torn from the floor were hurled to the ceiling with such force as to burst the stone and plaster of the walls above. Ponderous flagstones were wrenched from their resting places and throughout the corridors the frescoing on the ceilings and walls of the corridors were utterly ruined. No damage was done to the main foundations of the building, as these are of solid masonry deeply embedded and 25 feet 4 inches thick.

Chief Justice Marshal's Bust. Among the losses whi will be most sincerely regretted are tliose of busts of Chief Justice Marshal and other distinguished members of the supreme court, which were arranged on small pedestals about the supreme court chamber. In the smoke and ruin which followed the explosion these valuable works of art were either badly damaged or wholly destroyed and with their destruction the country has suffered an irreparable lose. Many of them have been treasured as exhibits in the supreme court chamber for half a century.

The capitol building has been damaged a number of times before by fire, but it is believed that last night's fire will prove to be the most disastrous in the history of the building. The loss on the building is estimated at $200,000.

AGUINALDO'S NEBVE.

HOW HE TRIED TO SHOW HIS AUTHORITY IN MANILA.

Extraordinary Demands of the Yonng Leader, Who Encouraffes His Troops to Believe He In a Ruler by Divine Right.

The New York Sun's correspondent, writing from Manila under date of Sept. 30, says: The occupation of Manila on Aug. 13 was not so oomplete or so effective as it might have been if the well digested plans of the movement had been fully carried out. The attempts of Aguinaldo to advance with the American forces when they took the city were greatly resented by the Spaniards, who feared the insurgents on account of their mania for revenge and plunder and believed that the Americans were bound to keep the rebels out of the town—that is, outside the line of works. This, it will be remembered, was the original intention and, for all that is known to the contrary, was a stipulation tacitly granted to the Spaniards, if not actually guaranteed them. In reply to the oalls for re-enforcements, General Merritt sent word to the Spaniards at the outworks on the east and north to retire and come into the walled town to lay down their arms, and he at the same time declined to send out any American troops to take their places. Thue there were many roads left open to the insurgents to move up into the suburbs. This they proceeded to do with great alacrity, and they were soon swarming around the town in all directions and pushed up to the very outposts on the streets of the northern suburbs and down to within a few hundred yards of the governor general's palace at Malacanan, where General Merritt took up his official residence.

Then, having gained a great step toward sharing the occupation of the town and holding the waterworks and all the Spanish lines except the fort on the beach which the fleet bombarded to give weight to his claims, Aguinaldo began to make various demands, among which the most important were the following: The written assurance that in case the United States troops evacuated Manila the insurgent forces should occupy the positions which they held when the demand was made the free navigation of the Pasig river and protection by the American fleet of the insurgents' steamers the unimpeded circulation of the insurgent troops within the zone occupied by the Americans strict confinement of all Spaniards within the American lines admission of all produce free of octroi, or municipal duties, and lastly, the extraordinary demands that the governor general's palace at Malacanan and the archbishops' palaces in the southern suburbs should be turned over to the use of Aguinaldo and his officers, and, further, that an equitable share of the booty captured in Manila should be handed over to him. The last items, innocently persisted upon in every communication of tho many which the young dictator wrote General Merritt, indicate tho turn of mind of this bumptious and vain individual who has now gone so far as to encourage openly the belief among his troops that he is a ruler by divine right that ho has a charmed life that at times his glory shines with too brilliant a light to be looked upon by mortal eyes.

For several days after the occupation of the town there was no water to be had except rainwater. Fortunately it rained frequently at this time, else there would have been a water famine. General Merritt took no steps to get possession of the pumping station, which is about five miles from the town, nor did he even go so far as to occupy the filtering reservoirs, which are within the old Spanish lines, but instead of seizing these important points he wrote Aguinaldo asking him to start the pumps.

In reply he was assured that orders would be given to that effect, but three days passed, and nothing was done. Finally, on the morning of the fourth day, the weather becoming sttled and the rainwater getting low, two companies of the Colorado regiment were sent out under command of an engineer officer to occupy the pumping station and the reservoir. Arrived within half a mile or so of the latter, they were met by a force of insurgents who had advanced during the negotiations about the waterworks much nearer our lines, and they were told that Aguinaldo had ordered them to stop any foreigners from going up to the pumping station. General Merritt, in reply to a request for positive directions for action in case the insurgents should resist the proposed occupation, had only given indefinite instructions which might bo interpreted by a man of military instincts as encouragement to carry out orders at any

coEt.

Therefore the officer commanding the small detachment was preparing to force his way past the insurgents when an orderly galloped up bearing an order ftom headquarters to retire if the insurgents opposed tho advance. So the little force, full of fight aud feeling keenly the humiliation of the position, marched

Dack

again, and the insurgents

still hold the waterworks and at their own sweet will permit the pumps to be run and the necessary material and workmen to he moved through their lines. Encouraged by the inertia of the Americans, Aguinaldo lost no time in crowding forward on all sides until he occupied 14 blockhouses, every part of the Spanish trenches except a few yards adjoining the Fort San Antonio de Abad on tho beach, the suburbs of Banta Ana and Paco and a large area in the heart of Malate, which completes their circle of occupation from the water front on the south to the bay on the north of the town, thus completely investing the American lines and holding strongly intrenched positions around them, except in the one place above upoken of. Thia was exactly the state of affairs when General Merritt left.

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL.

LESSON VII, FOURTH QUARTER, INTERNATIONAL SERIES, NOV. 13..

Text of tlie Lesson, II Kings xlx, 20-23, 28-37—Memory Verses, 32-31—Golden Text, Ps. xlvi, 1—Commentary Prepared by the Rev. "D. M. Stearns.

[Copyright, 1S98, by D. M. Stearns.] 20. "Thus saith tho Lord God of Israel, That which thou hast prayed to me against Sennacherib, king of Assyria, I have heard." In the fourteenth year of Hezeklah tho king of Assyria c*rae against Judah and greatly blasphemed tho Lord both by word and by lefctor. Hozekiah, when he had road tho lotter, spread it before tho Lord and prayod (verses 14-10). Many times havo I followed Hezekiah's plan and always found rest. If we ask anything uccording to His will Ho hoareth us (I John v, 14), and it is His will that we tell Him everything and have careful nnxioty about nothing. Seo in verso 19 that tho groat desire of the king in asking for the ovorthrow of SoRnacberib was that all tho earth might know that tho God of Israol was-the only true God. 21. "This is the word that the Lord hath spoken concerning him, Tho virgin, the daughtor of Zion, hath despised tlioo and laughed tlioo to scorn." The peoplo of God in Judah, called tho daughter of Zion, the daughter of Jerusalem (compare Lam. ii, 13), having God as their defendor and avenger, neod foar no enemy. In such strongth Moses and Joshua lived Gideo.i also, and David when he wont fearlessly agaiust Goliath. When wo seok only tho honor and glory of God, He will not fail u6. 32. "Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed, the Holy Ono of Israol?" As in tho next vorse, "By thy messengers than hast roproachod tho Lord." They spake against the God of Jerusalem as against tho gods of the peoplo of the earth, the works of tho hands of man, and for this causo Hezokiah, tho king, and the prophet Isaiah, tho son of Amoe, prayod and cried to heaven (II Chron. xxxii, 19, "0). God heard their prayer, and now wo will sue how lie answered it. 28. "I will turn theo baok by tho way which thou earnest." This is a part of tho word of ihu Lord concerning Sennacherib. See also verse 2b, "I know thy abode and thy going out, and thy coming in and thy rago against me." Ho who croated all things can sot bounds that none can pass. Wo can only go hero and thero or do thia or that if tho Lord will (Jas. iv, 15). Man does not stop to consider that all his words and oven his thoughts are known to tho Lord (Pg. exxxix, 1-4), and that it is impossible to hide anything friv.n Him. Even Adam, blinded by satan, thought ho could hido from God among tho troos (Gen. iii, 8). Happy are those who livo as in tho sight of the Lord. 29. "And this shall boa sign unto thee. By comparing this verso with Lev. xxv, 21, 22, the sign seems to have been the special blessing of God upon tho Sabbath year, or, in other words, tho blessing of God on His obodient peoplo. What but tho hand of God could causo land to produce a three years' crop in ono year? In tho K. V. margin of Prov. x, 22, we read that tho blessing of tho Lord maketh rich and toil addeth nothing thereto. :](). "Tho remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall yet again tako root cii\. nward and boar fruit upward." The doctrine that it is over the few out of the many who are really tho Lord's and who glorify Him is found in all Scripture. The stories oC .Sea!:, of Lot in Sodom, of Elijah and such st:*tonionts as "Few there bo that find it, "An afTlicted and poor peuI 1" who h):I 1] trust, in tho Lord," indicate that which God sees to be ever true. See Math, vii, 14 Zeph. iii, 12. 31. "Out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant the zeal of the Lord of Hosts shall dot his. Tho zoal of tho Lord of Hosts shah also bring the kingdom of peace on earth which shall havo no end (Isa. ix, 7). All shall bo accomplished in and through the Son of David, our Lord Jesus Christ, of whom it is written, "The zeal of thino house hath eaten me up" (Ps. lxix, 9 John ii, 17). It is nothing with tho Lord to work with many or witii fow nothing is too hard for Him (II Chron. xiv, 11 Jor. xxxii, 17). 32. "Therefore thus saitli tho Lord concerning the king of Assyria." Our Lord dooth according to His will in the army of heaven and among tho inhabitants of the earth (Dan. iv, 35). His thoughts and purposes aro as good as accomplished (Isa. xiv, 24 Jer. 11, 29). 3:J "By the way that ho came, by tho same shall ho return and shall not come into this city, saith the Lord." This was the decision of Him who had ail tho hosts of heaven undor Ilis control and nil power to carry out His purposes. IIocould s.ty, "Hitherto shalt thou como, but no farthor" (Job. xxxviii, 11). Even tho great adversary must stop when God shall say so, and he shall go to tho pit for a thousand years, and to Jio lako of fire forever. 34. "For I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake and for my sorvant David's sake." Seo also chnptor xx, (, and compare Isa. xxxi, 5 Zech. xii, 8 Tho "I wills" of Jehovah aro a study of greatest, possible benefit. Thoy often occur in sevens and in connection with tho statement "1 am Jehovah." Sue Ex. vi, 0-S Gen. xvii, 1-S Ps. xci, 14-1(3. 13oeause Lc is what He is He will do what Ho says, not for Israel's sake, but tor His own sake Sou E'.ok. xxxvi, 22 Ps. ovi, 8. Wo must not look for worthiness or morit in n-H'sulves, but in Him who alono is (Ps. exv, 1 Row v, 4, 5). Tako ail cumfort you can find in such passage!. as Isa. xliii, 25 I John ii, 12. 35. "And it came to pass that night that tho angel of the Lord wont out and smote in tho camp of tho Assyrians an hundred foursuoro and five thousand." Tho work of this angel is also montioned in Isa. xxxvii, 3(i, and in II Chron. xxxii, 21. W'hon tho dovil is to be bound and cast into tho bottomless pit, it is writton that ono angel will do it (Rov. xx, 1-S). Consider in each of those cases tho power of an angel and then think of tho millions upon millions of them mighty in strength, doing His commandments, hearkoning unto the voino of His word (Rov. v, 11 Ps. ciii, 20). Think of tho angel's disregard of and powor ovor soldiers and fast barred gates in tho story of Potor's reloaso in Acts xii. Think of tho one who carried good tidings to Paul in the storm at sea (Acts xx vii), remomber that they aro all ministering spirits sent forth to minister unto tho heirs of salvation (Heb. i, 14), and let your heart say, "Though an host should encamp against mo, my heart shall not fear" (Ps. xxvii, 3). If God be for me, who can be against me? I will trust and not bo afraid. 36. 87. "His sons smote him with the sword." Thus he died in his own land according to the word of the Lord (verse 7), and while in the act of worshiping idols. So shall perish all the enemies of the Lord.

WE PUBLISH THE STORY OF AN/ OTHER WONDERFUL CURE OF BACKACHE FOR THE

BENEFIT OF CRAW/* FORDSVILLE PEOPLE.

Morrow's Kid-ne-oids receive the highest possible praise from an Elkhart, Ind., businessman. If Morrow's Kid-ne-oids were not a worthy remedy, or the remedy we claim them to be, it would be impossible to get people living in Elkhart to praise them. Geo. Towman, the barber at Main and Franklin streets, has much to say for them and stronger language could not be used. Here is what he says word for word: "I doubt very much if there are many people living who have suffered worse with kidney complaint and lived than I have. My condition had gradually been growing worse for years, notwithstanding the fact that I have used much 'patent medicine' as well as being treated by physicians, which has cost lots of money. Only two months ago I paid a large doctor bill for which I had received not one particle of benefit. My condition has been so bad at times that I have bad to quit work for a week or more. The pain through the small of my back was so intense that it seemed to me as if I were dying by inches. This condition made me so nervous that by spells I was unable to hold a razor steady. The kidney secretions were highly discolored and accompanied by a scalding pain in its passsge. This showed an excessiveness of uric acid. No one could blame me for being completely discouraged. I had begun to believe that my condition was a hopeless one, until hope took the place of despair through reading the many cureB effected by Morrow's Kid-ne-oids. I could no more than fail (which I had been doing right along although taking treatment from physicians and paying doctor bills) if I gave the Kid-ne-oids a trial. I bought two boxeB to start with. It seems incredible when I say that I began to feel better in 24 hours, but such was the case. Inside of a week my condition WEB more improved than it had been for years from other treatment. To-day my backache has entirely disappeared, my nerves have grown steady and Btrong and I am perfectly free from urinary disturbances notwithstanding the fact that I work hard all day. I am so elated over my preset heathful condition that I suppose I have told and recommended Kid-ne-oids to over thirty of my customers I make thiB statement for publication with the hope that those who read it will not delay one moment but stop their

Buf­

fering by using Kid-ne-oids at once, for I positively believe them to be the only cure for this complaint to be had."

The people of Crawfordsville and surrounding country should be convinced at once through this statement and lose no time from being cured. Kid-ne-oids are Yellow TabletB (not pills) and are for sale by all first class druggists and at Geo. W. Steele's drug store at 50 cents a box. John Morrow & Co., Chemists, Springfield, Ohio.

FIRST PORT OF THE WORLD.

New York Will Lead London When tlie Present F1KCL1 Year One of the most striking paragraphs in the forthcoming annual report of E. T. Chamberlain, the commissioner of navigation, is that containing the statement that at the end of the current fiscal year (June 30, 1899,) New York will be the first seaport of the world, a position that has for centuries been held by London. The report of the British board of trade shows that at London the combined entries and clearances of vessels in tho foreign trade, including the British colonies, for the year 1897, aggregated 15,797,659 tons, which was again of 215,000 tons for the 12 months.

The combined entries and clearances in the foreign trade at New York for the year ended June 30, 1898, was 15,348,242 tons, an increase of 1,131,727 tons over the previous year. With the average gain foi New York added to thi6 total, the aggregate for that port will at the end of the current fiscal year place New Vork ahead of London in the foreign commerce of the world.
