DEMOCRATIC newspapers claimed that •••••'Philadelphia Republicans showed great apathy concerning the recent city election. Tbe Republicans confess it also.
They only gave Chas. H. Warwick for Tiiavor, about CI,000 majority or about double the usual number. Had the Republicans shown the zeal they usually •display, a majority of about 100,000 •could have been rolled up, for few people care to vote with the Democrats when they think of the hard times they have brought on the country by their tariff tinkering and financial policy. Just think of Cleveland and Carlisle making a straight gift in the recent bond sale to Lhe Belmont, Morgan syndicate representing the Rothchilds of $8,418.7-17.
SKXATOK J. X. Dolpli was defeatol for a re-election last Saturday iiighr, in the Oregon legislature on account of his financial views, he being a single gold standard man. George W. McBride was electerl. The Oivgonians have taken the right course. Too long the U. S. Senate has been filled with men who obeyed the JWiestsof the bondholders and brokers of New York and London, rather than looked after the iuteivsts of their own constituents. What the people of this country want is men who are not looking after i,tie interests of tut- trusts and •corporations, the bondholders and other men who are already beyond the reach of want, but men wno will look after the interest of the vast mass ne voters, the .laboring men who have rights.
A KEPOKT which has just recently been compiled by the American Economist from 39 States and territories shows the difference between manufacturing industries in 1892 and 1894 and the contrast between tariff times and free trade tendencies is indeed marked. Three hundred and twenty manufacturing industries report a less number of hauds by 20,800 and other statistics as follows: Decrease in number of hands employed
HOper cent
Decrease ill amount of wages earned 45 per cent Decrease in output of factories, Ac 44 per cent Average earnings per hand in 18112 &!50 Average earnings per hand in 1894 Sl'Jo
There are many voters who want a •chance to return to the good old times of'92.
ABOUT one hundred million bushels of potatoes are annually imported into this country. The Great Northern Railroad is holding agricultural meetings along the line of its road to show the farmers and its patrons the benefit and profits to be derived from raising potatoes. Mr. Terry, who lectured before our farmers' institute last month, showed the enormous profits to be derived from raising clover and potatoes. The farmers of Hancock county could double the value of the products of their farms by raising small fruits, potatoes, onions and diversifying both their crops and stock. This is demonstrated by farmers who do diversify their crops. Try heavy lertilizing and a few acres of potatoes this year.
WM. E. WOODKUFF, ex-State Treasurer of Arkansas was on Saturday sentenced to one year in the penitentiary for misappropriation of funds. It is only recently that the State Treasurer of South Dakota got away with $300,000 of the Stale's money and State Treasurer Ramsey, of Illinois, who within a year went out of office and soon afterward died, was just recently found to he $270,000 short in his accounts. A few years ago honest (!J) old Dick Tate who had been State Treasurer of Kentucky for many years, bobbed up with a shortage of $400,000 which he had stolen from the State. When such enormous sums are stolen from the taxpayers, it looks like the thieves would have aiders, abetters and accomplices and that several men at least .should go to the penitentiary. Let the law be enforced and the great, as well as the small punished.

tionment- bills wore made the apportionment law, and the pending senate repealed the present legislative special order for Wednesday. The Wisliard bill, •\vhirh is the caucus measure, will make the legislature surely Republican upon a normal Yule.
In the senate the house bill for the teaching in public schools of the efleets of intenijier nice was shelved, and rxnator Xev.iiy's bill, to a similar purpose, was substituted. A lobby was present, and watched the action of the bill. It is said that this action was taken to delay matti-rs. and thus defeat any legislation on the subject.
Senator Wish an I made a report against compelling the Citizens' Street Railway company of this city to pave between its tracks.
The senate shortly before noon took up the question of county seat removal in Jae'xsiui 'bounty. There was great confusion on the floor of the senate. Senator Seller began a long argument. Delegations from Brownstown and Seymour listened to the debate. The bill: •was not passed for lack of a constitutioual majority.
Many minor committee reports were made in tho house. One report concurrcd in makes it unlawful to dock or clip horses. Another forbids shantyboats on the Ohio to anchor more than 10 hours at any one place.
The house passed the bill changing 1 the time of electing county superintendents of schools from June to September, consequently the Republican trustees elected at the last eleotion will choose the next set of superintendents.
STRUGGLE WITH A MAD DOG.
Xlie Iii-ute Clioked to Death liefore He Would Release His Hold. BRAZIL, Ind., Feb. 20.—A man named
Henry King of Carbon, north of this city, had a terrible experience yesterday with a large dog suffering with hydrophobia. While leaving his gate, a strange dog with foam flying from his mouth, and exhibiting all the signs of hydrophobia, sprang upon him and seized him by the left wrist, driving his teeth to the bone.
King tried to shake the dog off, but he hung on, when King grasped the dog by his shaggy neck and began choking him. The animal never l'eleased his hold until he was stone dead, when his jaws had to be forced open. King's arm as terribly lacerated. He came to this city at once and had the wounds seared, after which he went to Terre Haute to have the madstone applied.
Stir in Kducatiomil Circles.
COLUMBUS, Ind., Feb. 26.—There is a great stir in educational circles in this city, occasioned by the arrest of exCounty Superintendent W. J. Griffin on a charge of being engaged in propagating a fraud on the public schools of this county. Griffin, it is claimed, procured of his friend, Jacob Wade, who succeeded him in office after he had been expelled, a copy of the questions prepared by the state superintendent for the examination of applicants for teachers' license, and, after making many copies of the same, sold them to aspiring teachers at $10 each.

SULLIVAN'S

DRUNK. Gel Rid of
ROM to
His Company.
SAVANNAH, Feb. 26 —There is soma reason to believe that Sullivan's recent •scapade In Florida was a premeditated affair, and not the result of a blind yielding to a passion for drink. Sullivan stated, when here, that he would probably not go any further than Jacksonville with his company The thing had been a dead failure from the start and he was tired of being "on the hog.'1 He said he had lost $6,000 already.
The play did not take, and he realized that his compujiy was not composed of actors. Hence, it is believed here that Sullivan's Florida drunk, though genuine, was merely a ruse to shake the crowd he had with him. Sullivan said that he intended a$ soon as his engagement was completed to go to the northern part of Africa, where he would spend some time getting his system in shape, and, he intimated, train for his next battle.

FIGHT WITH BANDITS.
Desperate
Bank Itobbers Buu in After Struggle. OMAHA, Feb. 26.—A Council Bluffs special to The Bee says: A spirited fight between the bank robbers and the local authorities occurred here last night, in which several persons were shot and much powder burned. Officers had been notified to watch for the men, who yesterday morning robbed the Griswold (la.) bank.
Just after dusk, as one of the officers was patrolling his beat, he noticed a man sitting in the office of the Kiel hotel who answer'.-! the description telegraphed from Griswold. Deputy Sheriff O'Brieu was notified and concluded that he was one of tl^ -,-**• wanted and called to his assis .^ice iDeputy Sheriff Hooker, and in company with" Officers Peterson and Ware the party entered tl).- office and invited the suspect to jail.
As the live men left the hotel, two other hotel guests rose and followed, keeping several yards behind. Just as tliey reached the courthouse, O'Brien dropped behind, telling his prisoner to walk in front. As he did this, the two men who had been following the party, commenced firing at the officers. The officers returned the lire, the prisouei and the two strangers separating from the officers and shooting as they ran. 'For some minutes the fusillade was kept up, citi:••.(• us and other officers joining in the battle, which had been general all along the line until the desperadoes wev^ overcome and two of them placed nno'er arrest and taken to jail, where they gave their names a.s John Reilly ami .Juies Wilson. As soon as they were p.aeod behind the bars the officers started to look for th-.i wound* 1, and in the search they discovered O'Brieu severely wounded, a bullet having struck him in the abdomen, entering the body and lodging near the spine. Reilly was hit- in the groin, the bullet penetrating some two inches.
The third man escaped and fled toward the river, pursued by a posse of citizens, but Le managed to elude them. It is thought he is now in Omaha and that the police of that city have been notified to be on the lookout for the inan. In searching the men at the jail their pockets yielded a large number of postage stamps and a quantity of small change, which fact convinces"the officers that the two parties now under arrest are members of the gang that robbed thu Griswold bank.
While the shooting was going on Motorraan Scullen met with a peculiar accident. His train was in the vicinity of the battle, and just as he was about to seek the section of the inside of his car a bullet struck a building nearby, and, glancing, flew back and struck him between the eyes, cutting the flesh to the bone.
At the jail the men who are under arrest refused to talk upon the subject of the robbery. They say that they are farmhands. In regard to the shooting they state that they were scared and did not know the men with whom they were fighting were officers and that they shot, as they supposed, to defend their lives.
