Can it be that all those distinguished Democrats from abroad for whom hotel accomodations were reserved at Indianapolis were frightened away by the Coy gang?

The Washington contingent can make a good deal of noise but when it comes to a state conference or convention of Indiana Democrats the Gray cohorts outcount the federal pap suckers.

"If I throw a rock at a dog and hear a yelp, I known I haven't missed," says the Rev. Sam Jones. When Senator Voorhees hears that yelp set up over ills speech, he may know by the same rule that he made a hit.—[St. Louis Republican.

But suppose the senator threw a "boomerang, whose yelp is it that is heard?

At the state conference of the Democrats at Indianapolis Sim Coy and four others of the men indicted for the tally sheet forgeries were made vice presidents but Mr. Wm. Henderson and Judge Solomon Claypool were ignored though they were Democrats before Coy came from obscurity to be the boss of the thugs. United States District Attorney Sellers, also, was snubbed bnt Leon Bailey the narrow-headed, imitation lawyer and deputy district attorney was named.

Mr. J. G. Shanklin, the big and brave —in the courage of his convictions— editor or the Evansville Courier, wanted the Indianapolis conference to be candid on the tariff question and espouse free trade, but the theorists were afraid to do so.

Like all free trade theorists they abandon the theory when the issue is driven home just as Senator Brown, of Georgia, did in the senate the other day in behalf of his constituents who pay internal revenue tax. It is so with

them in every, instance. Our esteemed contemporary, the Gazette, is a rabid free trader except when Terre Haute is affected. Mr. James Russell Lowell is for free trade in everything except books. He went direct from an international copyright meeting, whose object is to protect American writers in their home field, to the mugwump free trade meeting where he advocated the remoyal of all protection from the wool grower, the iron manufacturers and all others who want a home market for their product quite as much as does Mr. Lowell for his.

PRESS COMMENT.

St. Louis Globe-Democrat: On the tariff question we appeal from Voorhees, of Washington, to Voorhees, of Atlanta.

Philadelphia Record: The Reading company stands practically alone in its efforts to reduce, without notice and without justification, the hard earned wages of the Schuylkill Valley miners.

Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle: The internal reyenue tax, as far at least as it relates to tobacco, should be abolished, the free list broadened fqj- raw materials, and the tariff lowered on some of the staple article or necessaries of life.

Rochester (N. Y.) Times: Economists who oppose protective legislation insist that every tub shall stand on its own bottom. But why remove all the hoops that bind staves to chime, and then demand that the tub shall stand every shock of the inrushing tide?

St. Louis Post-Dispatch: The more electric lights supersede the gas jets in any establishment, the bigger grow the bills for gaa consumed in the few remaining gas burners. But as we pay for gas inspection in this city without getting it, we have no means of comparison.

New York Sun: We would suggest to all the Democratic members, as rules to be observed by them: 1. A prohibitory tariff against extreme theories, cheap talk and a disposition to quarrel. 2. Free trade in compromise and conciliatory opinion.

Kansas City Times: Eastern opinions of western institutions often show the most laughable ignorance. The New York man who, on his first visit to Kansas City last summer, left his walking stick at home for fear he would be taken for a dude, is a fair example of the type of which Mr. Warner speaks.

Minneapolis Tribune: The only cloud on the horizon, and that is one which threatens the entire country, is the possible action of a Democratic congress in regard to the protective tariff and with the exception of this dim mist, which can hardly be termed a cloud the sky ahead is clear and bright.

New York Times: Testimony to the value of a high license law as an agent for the promotion of temperance accumulates rapidly, as experiments are made in different states and as the evidence of its practical workings increases honest men are inclined to wonder how it is possible that any legislature can unblushingly reject a scheme which has been proved to be of great benefit to every community in which it has had a fair trial.

Hartford Courant: It really begins to look very much like Robert T. Lincoln, Uncle Abe's boy, for next governor of Illinois—always provided there is no previous political engagement in the way when the nominating convention meets. What with the common sense inherited from his father and his own experience in executive work at the war department, Mr. Lincoln would bring to the governorship at least two very valuable and promising qualifications.

MR*. MOORE OR O'XEIL

St. Louis' Statesman Scored—She Says Sbe Married Him In Washington. Special to the Chicago Dally Mews.

ST. LOUIS, January 11.—The scandal which has suddenly involved Congressman John J. O'Neil promises to result in a lawsuit as racy as that of "Baby Bunting" and "Bunnie," which has just closed in New York. Mr. O'Neil not only positively denies that he is married to Mrs. Ethel Moore, who is now in this city claiming to be his lawful wife, but he has instructed an attorney here to begin proceedings against Mrs. Moore as a blackmailer. After the sensational statement made two years ago in the Cincinnati Enquirer involving the conduct of Mr. O'Neil afld Mrs. Moore had been retracted Mrs. Moore visited at Mr. O'Neil's home in St. Louis and received very marked attention. The congressman escorted her to theaters and social parties. These things had passed out of the public mind until the present chapter was opened by the appearance of Mrs. Moore at the Southern hotel under the name of Mrs. J. O'Neil.

The denials and violent denunciations of her by Mr. O'Neil have completely prostrated the woman and to-day she was confined to her bed at the Southern. Reporters were admitted and in tears Mrs. Moore told her story. A picture of Mr. O'Neil and one of her 8-year-old daughter by a former marriage adorned a center-table of her room. Mrs. Moore said, with much feeling: "I am John J. O'Neil's wife, and when the time comes I will prove it. I do not want to say anything that will hurt Mr. O'Neil, and that is why I do not speak now. If he does not tell the truth by to-morrow, though, I will* make a statement in writing, and, when I do, it will hurt both him and me."

Mrs. Moore said that she was here last July as Mr. O'Neil's guest that she returned with him to Washington December 1, and both registered under their own names at the National hotel. Continuing, she said: "We were married between December 1 and 15. The exact date I will not state now. We had adjoining and communicating apartments before we were married. After that we lived as man and wife. His unbearable conduct toward me was such that I finally dragged myself from a sick bed to come out here to escape his presence and ill-treatment until I should recover my health. Mr. O'Neil at the National hotel recognized me as his wife and took no pains to correct publications in the papers referring to me as such, and many of both his and my personal friends called and sent their cards to me at our apartments addressed to Mrs. O'Neil with his full knowledge. I did not see any of them, however, because of my own condition and that of Mr. O'Neil. Every woman takes a pride in her husband and in his appearance before others. The truth of the matter is that John J. O'Neil has been on a spree almost all the time since he fcas been back in Washington. He was sober when married." "I would not have married him if he had been drunk. You know how John O'Neil is. He can be full to-night and to-morrow morning be in the house of representatives at his work again" and the next night keep up his spree again. Some unkind people may think that he had been drinking when I married him, but he had not."

Mrs. O'Neil spoke at some length of her devotion to Mr. O'Neil's children and his niece, with whom she said she spent nearly two months .when she was ill, and at one time not expected to live. At this time Mr. O'Neil, she said, went off on a spree, leaving the entire responsibility on her. She nursed the child carefully, and when it recovered the doctor told Mr. O'Neil thfft he owed the child's life to her. "Now," said Mrs. O'Neil,tearfully, "Mr. 0 Neil telegraphs to Mr. Degnan for fear that I will try to borrow money from him. Mr. Degnan is Mr. O'Neil's brother-in-law, but Mr. Degnan is a gentleman. I have paid all my bills so far and Mr. O'Neil need not be afraid. I have receipts from the hotel for all my bills. I was going back to Washington this morning and had my ticket bought, but now I will stop here for two or three days more. I shall never live with Mr, O'Neil again. "Any one who knows Mr. O'Neil knows that I exercised an influence over him for good in the last three years. He was very much afraid that he would not be reappointed chairman of the committee on labor in this congress. He did not like the way Mr. Carlisle treated him at the last session. When I was here in November Mr. Carlisle stopped at the hotel for a day and I sent out word to Mr. O'Neil to come down and see him and show him some attention. He did so, and I was never so proud in my life as I was the day he was appointed to the chairmanship. "I know a good deal about John J. O'Neil's position in the house, and just how much credit he deserves for his work there. Why, that arbitration bill, which he and Crain both claimed, did not come from either of them, and neither of them saw it before it was all written out. 1 know that. John O'Neil is in politics just what he is in private life. When he is cornered he fights like a Turk and has no respect for truth or honor."

Mrs. Moore was asked to give the name of the minister who performed the marriage ceremony at the National hotel and answered: "Not now, I will make a statement when the time comes. In justice to my little girl, on whom this will fall, I must make the truth known. I did not think John J. O'Neil would ever treat me in this way, and bring shame upon me and my little gitl, who is more than my life to me."

No papers have yet been served on Mrs. Moore, as ordered by the congressman.

SHAKING UP THE PRESIDENT.

The senate this afternoon, on a motion of Mr. Hoar, passed a resolution calling upon the president to forward at once to congress the reports of the Pacific railroad commission, which are still in his hands. This resolution is unusual and almost impertinent, for it is customary to let the president have as much time as he chooses to transmit communications. The report of the commission was, however, ordered by congress and is addressed to congress, passing through the president's hands only as a matter of courtesy. It has been given to the public through the newspapers, and the members of congress think it should not be withheld from them, as two committees—one on either side of the capitol—are awaiting these reports before formulating a bill to settle the indebtedness of the Pacific railroad companies. It is saiid that the

cause of the president's delay is his desire to accompany the documents with an elaborate message setting forth his views as to the duty of congress in the matter. He intimated to Congressman Outhwaite that he should send the reorts in the firat of the week, but they _jave not yet come.—[Special to the Chicago Daily News.

A Boston Paper-Hanger's Trouble and How He Got Out of It—Plain Words From the Sunny South.

When we are In trouble we cry for help. When we are relieved we often forget to be thankful. But not always. Mr. W. W. Griffin, of Trout Creek, St. Clair Co., Ala., writes: "I had a bad attack of chills and fever. My system was full of malaria. For two years I was scarcely able to work at all. Some times my heart would palpitate for two hours at a time. My legs would get cold to the knees, and I fully expected to die. In Sep tember. 1881,1 bought a bottle of Shaker Extract of Roots, or Selgel's Curative Syrnp, of your agent, Mr. R. M. King, and before I had taken the first bottle I felt better, and In a short time was able to go to work. May god bless you for the work you have done."

Mr. Wm. J. McCann, 99 Randall St., Boston, writes: "Six months ago I began to throw up my food after eating. I thought I was going Into consumption. I soon began to have pain In the chest, stomach and sides. I got little sleep and woke all tired out I once lost five pound In four days. I began using Shaker Extract of Roots, or Selgel's Syrup, and when I had finished the sixth bottle I could eat three square meals a day, and go to sleep the minute I struck the bed. I am a paper hanger by trade, and have worked every day since I took the second bottle, and gained eighteen the body, enables nature to rebuild what disease has destroyed.

the November. 1887. Issue TheCentuif commences Its thirty-filth volwse with regular circulation of almost 380,000. The War Papers and the Life of Lincoln Increased Its monthly edition by 100,000. The latter UMWry having recounted the events of Llaeoln's eajly years, and given the necessary survey of tJie pnlfrIcal condition of the country, reaches a MOT period, with which his secretaries were most Intimately acquainted. Under the caption

Lincoln in the War.
