Mr. Gladstone is "intrenching on inherent rights," but not on the inherent rights covered by the declaration that all men.are born equal.

The Normal school seems to have taken on new life under the new dispensation. There is now harmony and consequent good work in ther faculty.

No doubt Mr. Gladstone will be accused of bringing about "anarchy" and "chaos" the much used bugbears that have lost their terror to thinking men in this day and generation.

The Sentinel, as it looks for the "labor" rote: "Oh, for a touch of a vanished hand,

And the eonnd of a voice that is still." The above is from the Indianapolis Journal. It- also applies to our esteemed contemporary (he Gazette, which has realized that something "drapped hereabouts.

The victoiy of decency over gang rule in Chicago was far more significant than the outside public realizes. The new reg istration law resulted in almost a clean sweep of the boodle,fellows who heretofore caused results to be officially declared, utterly regardless of the will of the people. As one of the gang re marked, the time has gone by when 300 dead men can be voted in one ward.

State Superintendent Holcombe in an other place in this morning's paper gives as his opinion that the coming law gov erning the apportionment of the school fund should be based on school at' tendance instead of the school population. Mr. Holcombe's plaif is one, that, if carried out, would severely unjust in many localities. The public school fund should be liberally applied. The waste, or loss in any shape, will be more than made up in the ulti mate good to the people and to the state. The evil of excessive apportionment is not nearly so serious as the danger of a lack of educational facilities.

The Indianapolis News, which gener ally hits the nail on the head, never struck it such a direct and perfect blow as in the following:

Mr. Powderly, in an interview, thyiks great good will come from the present railroad strike, whichever way it terminates, and that it will be the last railroad strike in this conntry. We are inclined to believe this. Good will certainly come out of it. Jay Gould who airily assumed the end of the existence of the Knights of Labor, spoke too soon. The Knights will outlive him, and outlive the system and plan of things which he represents, we hope and believe. The fellow who rushes into print with his "card," consigning the Knights to des true tion and oblivion, and the pert press which regards the reoent events as a mere ebullition, will find the future interesting and picturesque, if not profitable to them. Some bright morning the troth of the poet's line will dawn upon them: "The old order changeth."

It must have h^en a severe shock to the Gazette when the party leaden after weeks of argument showed it the figures as proof of their conclusions and it is not surprising that even its stubborn propensities were put under control. Hence we had yesterday instead of a three column paragraph on the danger of "anarchy" and "chaos" and the depreciation of values in Terre Haute owing to the boycott on that paper, two columns of a fairly good sort of editorial about the "Equality of Sexes,'

The South and the Negro," "The Average Politician," "Table Etiquette" and "Fiery Greece." Indeed, it is hard to realize that only a few days ago this same esteemed contemporary had announced its determination to keep up its fight with the K. of L. to the bitter end.

The Express has several times announced its opinion of boycotting. It has said it was opposed to it. It now reiterates that opinion, and begs of its esteemed contemporary to come to the oellent remedy, front one* more. Let's havs this thing commendation."

[Many explanations of the origin and meaning of the word "mugwump" have oeeu furnished to the public since it came into general use in the campaign of 1884. In a general sense, "mugwump''is a person who is, as Senator Ingalls said, of the neuter gender in politics not a political eunich, but just a mugwump. The mind of man fails to comprehend the meaning of the word when qualified as you suggest.—ED. EXPRESS.] J,,,,,

Greeleys*! Nomination for the Presidency lue to a Blander—Thefts st Receptions—Dennis Kearney's

Jst 07. pam* Obscured.

Special to the Chicago Daily News. "WASHINGTON, D. C., April 1,1S86. "Did you know," said a New York member of congress this morning, "that the nomination of -HoraceGreeley for the presidency in 1S72 was the {e?u)tof a blunder, and that those who w«re-*nr-prised the most were the very people who had done the most to bring it about It is an interesting story. If yon remember, it required great effort on the part of Lyman Trumbull, Carl Schurz, and the other friends of the liberal movement to enlist Mr Greeley's sympathies in the cause. When he did so, however, we democrats felt that we had gained a powerful ally, and our hearts warmed, as it were, to our old enemy of the Tribune. Shortly after this th^aemocfatic-liberal convention was held at Cincinnati. The New York delegation was not pledged tc any candidate but the prevailing sentiment was that David Davis, of Illinois, would be the most acceptable man to pit against General Grant. Mr. Davis was very popular with the moneyed class of the east. He was a man of high character and broad attainments, and we believed his candidacy would give us a good fighting chance of securing the electoral vote of Illinois. But we felt very grateful to Mr. Greeley. We decided therefoie that we would give kim a complimentary vote in the convention as an expression of our kindly regard. We went out to Cincinnati in a special train, with drums beating and flags flying, seventy-two dele-

gates, and probably two hundred others who had no business there, but wanted to seethefun. As soon as we arrived we began talking Greeley. This was done for a lark you must remember, but we talked about him so much that we soon started a great boom for him. We concluded) however, that this would do us no harm, and that, at the proper moment, he could be quietly set aside, when we would bend our energies, first, to the nomination of David Davis, or failing in that, the nomination of Charles Francis Adams. The Kentucky delegation was headed by Caesius M. Clay. They had no candidate, but they had heard so much talk about Horace'Greeley around New York headquarters that they believed we were honestly in favor of the old man, and to our horror, when that state was called, what did Clay do but announce that Kentucky cast her 26 votes for Horace Greeley. As we had pledged our first vote to Mr. Greeley we were bound to make good the promise, and when New York's 72 votes followed Kentucky's 26 the convention became wild with excitement, and from that time until the rollcall was finished nothing could be heard but shouts for Greeley. We attempted to check the tide on the next ballot, but it was too late. Greeley was nominated on the second ballot, and the maddest set of men in Cincinnati that night were the members of the New York delegation, whose choice was David Davis, of Illinois."

A few weeks ago a reception was given at the house of a distinguished southern representative, for which 3,000 invitations were issued. Many of the known people in official and social circles were present, and, as it afterward proved, quite a number wdre also in attendance who had neither been invited nor enjoyed the acquaintance of the host. In a city like Washington, filled with strangers, who come for a season, and whose places the next season are taken by persons equally unfamiliar with their surround ings, it is impossible for every one to know every one else, and, for this reason at social gatherings, where a large nam ber are present, it is always possible for any well-dressed person to walk boldly in and help himself liberally to the champagne and terrapin, and have a good time generally. At the particular reception to which I refer quite a number of articles were stolen trom the rooms. The character of the thefts showed that it was not the work of professionals, but rather of the class of amateur thieves, who, seeing a handsomely bound book that pleased their fancy, or some dainty ornament that they thought would add to the attractiveness of their own homes, quietly pocketed it, and satisfied their conscience with the reflec tion that the host was wealthy and could well aflerd to lose it Of course this kind of petty stealing is confined exclusively to the large social gatherings, inasmuch as at the more select affaire of this kind the person of a stranger wonld be in stantly detected.

Some yean ago, when Senor Romero represented the Mexican republic here, he invited a great number of people to his house to meet President Diaz. The next day so many pieces of bric-a-brac, articles of vertu, books, statuary, etc. were missing that the services of a skilled detective were called into requisition to discover the identity of the culprit Several weeks afterward, when the names and addresses ef half a dozen of the offenders were presented to the minkter, he read the list with astonishment anc instantly ordered that the investigation proceed no farther. All the names on the list, it is said, were those of persons to whom the best bouses in Washington were open.

"What has become of Dennis Kearney I inquired of a gentleman who has recently arrived grom the Pacific slope, "Kearney," said he, "has lost his grip as a political factor, and sunk compara tively out of sight He is now the pro prietor of a white intelligence office, so called in contradiction to those where Chinese help can be hired. He is making fair living, probably, but that about alL" "What gave Kearnev his prominence in California politics "His opposition to the railways and Chinese immigration. He was originally a drayman. He is a very forcible speaker and qnite eloquent in his way. I believe at the beginning of his crusade he was honest I am told the Pacific railways would have paid him 1100,000 at one time to cease his opposition to their in terests and unmake some of the sentiment he had undoubtedly developed against them. As I say, he refused to be bought then, but if all the stories are true, he succumbed to their blandishments later, and then they got him at their own practice, which was a mere pittance compared with the origiflal sum. The San Francisco, papers have made these charges repeatedly, and Kearney has never denied them. His followers believe them, and have deserted him almost to a man. Now there are 'none so poor to do him reverence.'" "Does he still make spesches on the sand lots?" "Oh, yes, but nobody attends them, exeept a few curious people who are more interested in seeing the man than hearing his sentiments. None of the crowd that formerly hurrahed about him go near him now."

The recently published currespondence between ex-Minister John Bussel Young and the state department regarding Chinese emigration contains a number of interesting facts. Tbe following extract is taken trom a letter written under dite of

In speaking socially and in

formally with a Chinese statesman of 1^ 'J *4

eminence, some time since, this question arose (i e., finding an outlet for the dense, teeming, over-popiilated districts]. I ventured to say, recognizing the difficulties it imposed not alone npon the government which had to find food and labor for a redundant population, bnt also npon friendly governments like those of the United States and the Australian colonies, who were compelled to resist emigration of Chinese subjects by special enactments, that it would ba wise for China to seek in some new, virgin country opportunities for her people. I leferred to New Guinea, or Papua, an inland 250,000 square miles in area, and to certain parts of the African continent which had recently been discovered, notably the valley of the Congo river. Uuder a judi cious system of emigration which the government could foster, colonies conld spring op there would be room for millions now huddled in debse masses and in constant 4read of famine, and the Chinese could reclaim these savage tracts to the benefit of their own civilization.

I was struck with the reply. "My people," this Chinese statesman said, "are not oolonists. .They have not the faculty for colonization which has built Up so many countries in various parts of the world under western influences. They cannot take the lead. They must live upon civilization of some kind or another, seek it out, and attach themselves to it''

OBITUARY.

Is"

Patrick Shannon.

At 6 o'clock yesterday morning the Hon Patrick Shannon, the well known Wall street banker and broker, died at his home, No. 823 south Fifth street. By the death of Mr. Shannon Terre Haute loses one of its representative business men, and one of its leading citizens. HiB life may be considered an eventful one in manr ways. It shows what a man can do who has posh, energy and integrity. He was born in County Sligo, Ireland, April 5th, 1830. He was only about a year and a half old when his parents came to America. They landed in New York, and came to Cassville, Ind, and from there moved to Lafayette. He came to Terre Haute in 1846 with his father, who was a contractor on the Wabash & Erie Canal. He was paymaster. After severing his connection with the canal, he went into the pump business, and for some time sold pumps throughout this section. He then went into the liquor business.

In the early days of Terre Haute came John H. Watson, a native of Bhode Island, He was one of the most reliable and liberal of the early settlers. By his policy of creating a circulating medi um, at a time when money was urgently demanded, and so hard to obtain, and loaning it to farmers and business men without requiring security that would endanger their property, he became in a great measure public benefactor. In 1839 he organized Watson's bank. In 1856 Mr. Shannon entered the bank as partner, and the business was conducted under the name of Watson & Shannon until 1860, when Mr. Watson died. Mr. Shannon continued the business until the time of his death. In the days of "wild cat" currency, Watson & Shannon's money was as good as gold. It was always a prosperous institution, and always had the confidence of the public. Mr. Shannon began the work of redeeming the notes issued by the bank in 1860, and by 1865 the majority of them were redeemed. Occasionally one comes in at this late day, but greenbacks and gold Continue to pass over the counter to redeem them. Watson & -Shannon's bank was first located in the rooms now occupied by Bhodes & Williams' law office on Main street. In 1834 Mr. Shannon removed the bank to its present quarters.

Mr. Shannon was a democrat in politics. He was one of its staunch supporters. He represented the Second ward in the city council before the war. In 1862 he was a candidate for county treasurer, but was not elected. In 1871 he was elected by the legislature of Indiana financial agent of the state, and served two years. During his term he paid oB nearly all the balance of the state debt, BO much so that the legislature deemed it inexpedient to have another state agent elected. In 1878 he was a candidate before the democratic state convention for state treasurer, but did not receive tbe nomination.

On the 22d of April, 1856, he married Miss Tulley. The Bev. Simon Lalumiere performed the marriage ceremony. His home life was a quiet one. Three chil dren were born to them, but they died. He tbok to his home three other children and raised them. One. of them is Mrs. Thomas A. Anderson. Another is Will Shannon, of the fire department, and the other is Miss Nellie Shannon (Katzenbach).

He was- a devout Catholic, being member of St Joseph's church. He was also a member of the Hibernian Beneve lent society. His purse was always open to the needs of his church. He was charitable, bestowing his charity in the way he thought would do the most good. The Sisters of the Catholic church never left Patrick Shannon's .presence when they came on a mission of mercy without receiving aid The good Sisters of St. Mary's of the Woods, those whose lots are cast at St. Joseph's church and other churches in the city, have lost a warm, steadfast friend. The men who knew him as their friend, realize what they have lost They knew that when the crust that was formed by the contact with the Easiness world was broken, a warm heart was found, and generous nature. He was not a man who would ask for quarter in a business way he met adversity, and good fortune like a man—a bold business man. His policy was to settle by "arbitration," even if it had to be done at a loss. When he formed an attachment to a man he was his firm friend but that friendship once betrayed, ended all confidence. Of late yean his health hat been poor, especially the last year. Dnring the winter he became unable to walk from his residence to his bank, and was brought up in his buggy. He was always large and fleshy, and at one time weighed over 300 pounds. He remained away from his bank several days during the winter, and about ten days ago he was again unable to come down. He grew worse, until at at last the end came. He died peacefully and quietly. His malady was fatty degeneration of the heart.

The funeral will occur at 10 o'clock Sunday morning from St. Joseph's church at high mass.

The Hibernian Benevolent society will attend in a body. Mr. Shannon left no will. His wife will be his sole heir.

OLD COTTON.

Two Baiu Received in

Recently Pnt on the Jlarket. Bock Hill, ti. &, Bftrald. On Tuesday last Mf. B. EL Guthril, administrator of the estate o( ttiti lite J. Harvey William, of Betheeda township* sold two bales of cotton on this market which was raised by slave labor on Mr. Williamson's plantation in 1862, nearly a quarter of a century ago. On account of the war there was no satisfactory market for cotton, and of tbe crop raised that year Mr. Williamson stored several bales under his house until the times might improve. After the war had ended, Mr. Williamson swapped three bales of tht cotton with the late D. B. S. Blake for a mule. Tbe remainder was retained. Af terward Mr. Williamson brought samples to Bock Mill, and Mr. D. B. Boddey, who was then in business here, offered him 33} cents per pound in gold for it, but the offer was rejected and tbe cotton

Btill

tained. At that time gold was at a premium of 50 per cent, hence Mr. Boddey's offer was equivalent to 50 cents per pound in currency. Strangely enough, Mr. Williamson, in face of this extraordinary price, determined to hold the cotton, and his death.laBt fall found it still unsold. Why he kept it so long is a mystesy that lies buried in the grave with him.

The cotton was packed before iron ties came into use and in the days when there was no roping to be had. Hickory withes were used instead, and the original bindings still hold the bales firmly together, and are in a good state of preservation. The lint i6 as good as when the crop was gathered in 1862, and classed middling. The cotton was bought by Messrs. W. L. Boddey &Co., at eight and one-fourth cents per pounds. A remarkable circumstance is that on the day that the cotton was finally fold the price was lower than it had been since it was grown.

Beyond a doubt this is the oldest cotton in the world. At any rate, it is certain ly the ouly cotton in existence that was raised by southern slave labor and baled in the rude manner peculiar to the hard times of the late war.

ingR.

J. WILLIAMS an old physician with fifty years' experience, will treat all Chronic Diseases

The report, for 1885, of this oit.y has Just been published and furnished much valuable information important to all. The chief point in the tables of this report I wish to direct attention to. is the fearful number of death* caused by diseases of the Throat and Lungs. More than flfty distinct maladies were concerned In causing this sacrifice of human life, and yet nearly one-half the deaths were canned by disease of the throat and lungs. It means that every second or third person we meet in tbe streets of business and pleasure is doomed to a premature death by diseases of the throat and lungs. Some falling this year and some next and so on. Such is tbe lesson taught by tbe experience of the past treatment. The stomach has been made the reoeptacle of medicine Intended to act on the Inner surf ace of fhe lungs, It has been nauseated demoralized and paralyzed by medicine unttl it has been rendered incapable of doing it necessary work digestion. 1 have shown you from the renorts of my patients how quick Inhalation produces a change for the better. No other treatment has ever accomplished such results.

CATARRH, that disgusting malady with its multiplicity of symptoms the sore throat enlarged or ulcerated tonsils, the remarkable tendency to contract a cold, the hoarseness, hacking cough, the oppression of the chest, the deafness, and poisoning of the blood from swallowing the mucus from the throat. I have the best appllanoes that ever came to this city. No other system of practice haa
