JOHN RLPBIGHT. |BBOO3i* JACOB Y«a£SRTHIRD DISTRICT# .ZANDER DUNBAR. TOR >WtOMKI, JOHN E. SMITH, The Star Haute trials have consumed ninety days and no convictions as yet. The Mormon Commission recently arrived at Salt Lake. The question is whether they will take the Mormons or the Mormons capture them. The last heard from there was that the odds were in favor of the latter proposition. It was expected- from what was foreshadowed the week before, that the Democratic platform would be annihilated by an editorial cyclone from the Journal. There is some wind about the institution, but they do not get the right curve to their ideas as the boys say about a base ball pitcher who is a failure. The pension office has received a recnforcement of 422 new clerks.- Os course there were a great many women who applied for these positions, but none of them received a place. The mon filled the new positions. And now “The Woman’s National Labor Organizations” have declared their defeat shall be the beginning of a warfare that shall not cease until women be recognized as legitimate office seekers. The republican party claim to be a party of principle. They kicked Gen. Chalmers, of Mississippi, out of Congress. Chagrined at the loss of place and feeling that he could not be returned as a Democrat, lie made overtures to Republicans to Mahone Mississippi, if they would aid him to congress again, which was accepted. He announced himself a candidate from the second Mississippi district, and all seemed well. But the colored man and brother now waves the Lloody shirt and demands that Chalmers be put down. Chalmers as a Democrat was a bad rebel but as a Mahoneist has the support of good Republicans. But what has become of the party of principles? The Sioux tribes at the Pine Ridge and Rosebud Agencies have demanded the removal of Agent Mcftillicuddy by the first of October, or the alternative of war. They number 15,000 and can put 4,000 warriors into the field. As a matter of economy it would pay the Government to change their agent. The grieviance is not fairly stated, but it is reasonable to suppose that the Agent has been doing business with them for his own personal gain directly or indirectly In this case it would be cheaper to give him his profits and turn him loose. The Republican party is a party of principles, and one of its principles is that the officials of that party shall have a certain amount of plunder. With this understanding retire the Agent with a pension on the score of economy. Temperance people thought some time sines that the question of prohibition in this State had been adroitly managed to secure the best results, without interfering with politics to any considerable extent. It looks a little different just now. Here and there is cropping out this movement and that movement, indicating that some of the temperance people care less for the cans- of prohibition than they do for the success of the Republican party. They are not satisfied that temperance Democrats should rote for submission, but in many places they are trying to proselyte them and secure them for the entire Republican tieket. Many thoughtful Democrats are looking at it in this way. and unless ardent prohibitionists •ease their efforts for the Republican ticket, the probability now is that they will loose many temperance Democrats for rahmisbioD.

Anthony Baldwins key note should be patented so that the Democrats would be deprived from using it. Some of the outs, and who we predict will never get in, down at Hartford City, are working on a plan to let the county offices to the lowest bidder. The result of the adoption of auch a course would be to spoil a few good wood sawyers. Republican papers are trying to get wonderfully elated at the prospects of Democrats coming over to their camp on the temperance question, but they do not say any thing about Republicans coming over to the Democratic side. When they get through counting the votes this fall, they will be figuring their losses instead of their sains and wonder how it is thus, o The people along Yellow Creek are mad at Congressman Steele because ho did not get a crumb of that twenty million steal applied to the improvement of that noble stream. It is too bad that constituents are unreasonable. But then again, when a congressman, and what Rebublican congressman does net go into that kind of business, directly or indirectly, why not make himself useful. The twelfth annual convention of the National Catholic Total Abstinence Union was held in St. Paul last week. Five hundred and ninety-one votes were represented, indicating an equal number of subordinate unions. The report of the general secretaryshows nearly 35,000 members in the organization. Reports of department presidents indicate great progress in the work of temperance reform undertaken. Nearly every large city in the country was represented in the convention. Letters were received from nearly all of the leading Catholic dignitaries, including several Archbishops and many Bishops, all heartly endors- • • f'ns temperance movement. Carwm i wa3 represented by dinal McCloskey ■ at., proxy. The blessing of <..._ heretofore conferred was continued. Bishop Ireland made a two hour’s address. in which he declared that the woes of the people of Ireland were mostly brought about by intemperance, and that if they could be made temperate and kept so for fifteen years they could buy out the entire island with the money they would otherwise spend for drink.—Chicago Standard. Those Senators and members of Congress who voted for the twenty million steal, known as the River and Harbor bill, are busy explaining to their constituents, but their explanations will be unavailing. The omnibus features of the bill are the objectional ones. Not one of the items of the bill would be able to stand alone simply upon its own merits. This is the way it is accomplished: Congressmen and Senators get up a scheme of give and take for the appropriation of specific sums for improvements in which they are interested, some of which are meritorious and necessary, while others are worthies and unnecessary schemes. After pooling their influence upon the items they are interested, whatever is lacking is gained by adding a small appropriation for the improvement of Goose Creek, which catches Mr. A. Owl Creek catches Mr. B and so on until the desired number is obtained. This manner of legislation has been in progress for a considerable time and each year adds to the the outtage. It is about time the business was stopped, and the way to stop it is for the voters to set down upon the men who support such ill advised legislation, directly or indirectly or byfailing to record themselves against it. Os the latter class is Congressman Steele.
