The moet astounding feature of the disc union among men and newspapers as to the guilt or innocence of Alexander Sullivan and his friends in the Clan-na-Oael is the frank admission that the society has been organized for murderous purposes. The facts now brought out show that it sent dynamiters to England, and that some of these agents loet their liver. The gravamen of the charge against Sullivan is that he did not pay well for the service and that widows of dynamiters were not provided for. That was Cronin's accusation. He also charged that the funds were misappropriated by the Sullivan crowd, Mind you, Cronin, nor any other of the men enjfaged in the quarrel inside the society ever for a moment considered the enormity of their mutual crime as dynamiters. It was Bimply a question of who were traitors in this camp of murderers, The Clan-na-Gaei must go from the face of this land of libeity and law.

The city is about to borrow $50,000 and thereby add to the burden of a debt that must be paid some day. The question becomes more and more pressing as to how the city's treasury is to be provided with money to pay the debt. Either the revenues must be increased or the expenses decreased. There is some talk of raising the tax rate as a means of increasing the revenue. We submit that thij should net be done, because there are two excellent means of avoiding such action. In the first place there is no good reason why Terre Haute should not receive anywhere from $20,000 to $30,000 a year from saloon licenses. It is about the only city in the state that reoeives no revenue at all from this source. In the second place from $20,000 to $30,000 a year can be saved in the cost of the police, fire and street departments of the

"(jive us Harrison and Protection"! shouted the Clar county miners who came to see Benjamin last July. Well, they have got Harrison and protection. And still they dont's seem to be happy.— [Indianapolis Sentinel.

This is the cue to the talk about Clay county misery. The Democratic demagogues would rejoice in the corpse of a starved miner, but they know that aa a matter of faot the tariff has nothing to do with the Btrike in the block coal region. The tariff duty is on bituminous coal. Never before was the output of Indiana bituminous coal so great as at present, and on a scale of mining wages submitted by the miners. The block coal trade that has been depressed by the use of natural gas and oil as fuels is the one to which the free traders should properly addrees their remarks, but they are wild folks, thes9 free traders. Even suoh a careful newspaper as the Indianapolis News Baid, only yesterday, after time to investigaae, that there were thousands of miners on a strike. "Thousands" covered all the block coal miners in Clay county, and nearly all in the state were located there, long before they began leaving the county months before the strike because of the depression in the industry. Without advocating the justice of the claims of the block coal operators let us say that this sort of sensationalism is not oreditable to any newspaper. There probably are not today over one thousand suoh miners in the district.

SURPLUS OF WIDOWS.

In the article which we published in March last on "Work and Wi the Westminster Review, we stated that "it is not the spinsters who constitute the surplus female population and by whom the labor market is flooded, but the widows," and, adducing statistics in evidence, we added "that the widows nnmber aa many as 1,410,6&1, and the widowers 589,614, being an excess of 821,010 women. So great an excess of widows over widowers are scarcely to be expected, and most be regarded a* a deplorable thing which ssems to suggest at onoe some default or vice in our social life."

We mentioned as reasons for this excess "the greater natural longevity of women and the many risks to life to which men of all classes are exposed." The greater longevity of women than of men becomes a factor in the advance stages of life. On reference to the census of England and Wales for 1881 we find that widowers of sixty-five and upward numbered 180,121, and widows of corresponding age 372,377, whereas at fifty-five the widowers numbered 99,995 and the widows 259,811 and, again, at forty-five the widowers 73,928 and the widowa 193,680, so that the excess is still greater where longevity has nothing to do with it While it is true that men are more exposed to* risk than women, the mortality from childbirth must be taken into account and, although small in comparison to the risks which men in general are exposed to, it must count ss against the limited number of the married.

We propose to Bhow what we apprehend is the true and simple explanation, viz., marital disparity. In an article in the Universal Review of February last on "Population in France," Robert Donald says: "There is frequently a disparity between the ages of the couples, which leads to an abundant crop of young widowa For every 100 widowers in Franoe there are 191 widowa." How young, too, in our own country some are left widows is shown by the census -of England and Wales of 1881, at which date there were 52,019 widows of the Ag» of 24. Fifty-two thousand widows seem a great number at an age when, according to some authorities, most women should first marry, especially in these times. As long aa women do not submit to the fate which weighs on their natural mates or companions, but marry men old enough to be their fathera, grandfathers or great-grandfathers (often widowers) from unwillingness to face the battle of life, or from love of ease and show, so long will there be a gross inequality between the number of widowa and widowers.

This custom appears to be growing more and more prevalent every day in this country throughout all classes, and has frequently been the subjeot of comment in the newspapers. That marriage on the part of men is beooming later through the greater struggle of life, the advantages and fascinations of club life, and other reasons, is a well known fact. Now, from the fact of men not only mar rying often when far advanced ii h-rad, but sometimes when neare end than the beginning, to which be added remarriage, often onoe, and marprj^ thyi l&rpoison.

He got ex Sheriff pany and aseist him, and ain toa man somemat herself, so that she may have a companion in her latter days well as in her earlier—a season, inde» in whioh she often stands sorely in need of a protector. There are, however, counterbalancing reasons, and some of a very valid nature, whioh are likely to prevent this ever becoming a custom.

What is the lease of life of a man of 50 or 60 in comparison with that of a maid of 20 or 25? It is too often long enough to beget a brood numerous enough to become an eyesore to the Malthusian. This is not the place to discuss the pernicious and unscriptural fallacy that the procreation of children is the first objeot of marriage, but who shall eetimate the incalculable harm that it has done to

the cause of purity and the health of the human race?" Gross disparity was forbidden by Jewish law-given, and also by the most enlightenea of pagan legislators. Is it wise or prudent to permit the vigor of manhood to be dissipated or wasted, and to allow posterity to owe its origin to the waning strength of

N

Marriage, in its essence, is the duty of one sex toward the other, and may be approximately expressed as the complementing ana supplementing development and utilization reepeotively of manhood and womanhood, and we are not aware, apart from this, that it differs from any other union between man and woman so far as morality is concerned. The key is not more neceesary to the loc,k nor the cord to the bow, than is man and woman to each other in respect to the perfection of human life they are, indeed, as the poet Longfellow says, "Useless each without the other." This widow-making vice ot martial disparity is but one feature in that hymeneal profanation which is the curse and disgrace of our age, aa it was that of the decline of Rom» If we were to quote the following words without saving they were from Horace, Book 3, Oae 6, any one not knowing them might think they were taken from some current writings: "The present age, teeming with all manner of vioe, has first debauched our marriages, our families and our houses. From this souroe are derived those calamities which have overwhelmed our country and our people."

The profanation of the marrisge covenant, aa much in the church as in vanity fair, makes of the moral teaching ot to-day in the name ot Christianity from pulpit and platform a complete faroe, an insult to manhood and womanhood, and alibel onthefiniahed work of the Creator.

In our artide on *Work and Women," already referred to* it ia«id: "We find that between theogM of lS nd 45 the

Loof-'— an oar society at to-day the Miner realize the truth conveyed the words of Hepworth Dixon,in the "White Conquest*: "Nature putstheeexeson earth in pairs, and van destroys that balance at the cost at hie moraldeath." ~A little examination will convince the unprejudiced? mind that in compensation for whatever amotratof female beauty is sold under the gttise of "holy matrimony" or wasted on the artificial, illegitimate exaction of convention, a corresponding amount is bought outside ot marriage to satisfy the natural claims of manhood. We see, consequently, that the "social evil" is bat the reflection pr shadow of an unsocial evQ, and we must not, therefore, wonder if all the -agenciea of the philanthropist and the missionary efforts of the evangelist fail, when we- know how impossible it is to remove a shadow while that whioh causes the shadow remains.

HIPPOLYTZ'8 VICTORY,

The Stato Department at Washington Boceives Important Mews From BaytL NEW YOBK, June 13.—The steamer Alene, from Kingston, Jamaica, Jane 6th, arrived this morning and brings intelligence subetantiating the London cable reports of Hippolyte's victory and Legitime defeat. Legitime sought the

P'ort-au-Pnnoe.'

rotection ofh the American consul at Hippolyte's officers had •entered Port-au-Prince and taken possession of the town. The victorious warrior, however, Mr. Williams stud, was not popular with the people generally, and could probably never be president of the black republic by the vote of the inhabitants.

WASHINGTON, Jane 13.—An application at the statedspartmentfor information respecting the contents of the cablegram received yeeterday from Hayti are met with a point blank refusal* the officials even declining to make the negative statement that there was nothing alarming in the news. Secretary Tracey, however, was willing to say that the .dispatch did not reveal the existenoe of a dangerous state of affairs at Hayti, but another officer, who had seen the cablegram, hinted that it told of renewed fighting between the factions on the island Commodore Ramsay, of the New York navy yard, had along private interview with the iecretaryof the navy this morning. Secretary Tracy has ordered the Kearsarge to proceed at onoe to Hayti. She will oarry Rear Admiral Gherardi. It was the original intention to send the Boeton on this mission ss she could make the trip in about half the time that will be taken by the Kearsarge, but the latter has been substituted because the Boston is what is technically known as a "fever ship," and it would be hazardous to agafn expose her to yellow fever.

men? It is certainly contrary to the warning voice of the moet ^intelligent and disinterested of the medical profession, who are unquestionably the best counselors on this subjeot. The British Medioal Journal observed, some time baok: "There is no contract into whioh people habitually enter with so little thought for their future health and happiness, and for the moral and physical welfare of their possible offspring." "Every family practioner knows in how large a proportion of cases the wretchedness of ill-assorted unions depends on physical causes rather than on incompatibility of temper, want of intelligent sympathy and other decorous veils for unsatified nature. The viotima themselves are often unconBcioua of the real cause of their suffering, and invoke the aid of priests and legislators instead of that of the physician, who alone can help them."

tion. In Iowa in 1880 there were 3,031 government licenses issued for the sale of liquor. In 1886, under prohibition, the number had inoreaaed to 1,033—an increase of 999. It is not within the limits of reason that any man would pay for a license unless he meant to use it.

For the year ending April 30,1881, before prohibition, 1,881 government licenses to sell liquor were issued in Kansas. In the year ending April 30, 1887, after five years of prohibition, 2,997 licenses were issued in gther words, there were 58 per cent, more placea selling liquor in the year ending April 30, 1887, under prohibition, than in the year ending April 30,1881, before the enactment of the law. There has Bimply been a change of name from "saloon" to "drugstore."

Maine has more liquor-sellers in proportion to population than many license states. Rhode Island has one liquorseller to every 212 men. (See internal revenue reports.) -q•-
