MR. DANA AND HIS PAPER. While the Krtitor Discusses Political Issues in San Francisco, And Declares Tilden Not a Candidate, His l'uper in New York Innists on tho Sagc’tf Nomination. San Francisco, April 22. —1n an interview with a Chronicle representative, to-day, Mr. Dana said: “The leading issue of the next presidential campaign will be to turn out the Republicans.” Continuing, he said: “I do not think the Democrats ear. come squarely before the country as advocates of a tariff for revenue only. An internal revenue tax is justifiable Jon liquor, which will yield enough to pay the pensions allowed by recent laws. These will only last four or five years, after which the tax will no longer be needed. Even now, as recommended by Mr. Arthur, all internal taxation can be done away with. I can’t say whether the actions of the Republicans of the last Congress will alienate the worKingmen in the Republican party, nor that the pending Ohio election will be influenced thereby. If the question refers to the reduction of metal duties, it is too early to judge of its effects, but only in the Southern States is the manufacturing of woolen and cotton goods, sugar and iron likely to be affected by the free-trade issue. Louisiana will certainly fall under the free-trade policy. for without protection Louisiana sugar planters are powerless to mpetewith Cuba, Brazil and the Sandwich Islands. The iron interests of Alabama are safe- The effect of a free-trade plank in the Democratic platform in the next presidential election in Xew York, in the present state of public opinion, would be ruinous, and would, also, lose Xew Jersey, Connecticut, and probably Indiana. The Democratic party has available presidential candidates in all parts of the country. McDonald, of Indiana, is spoken of; Hendricks has his friends, Bayard has warm friends and probably more personal admirers than any other man in the party; Palmer, of Illinois, is strong, and Thurman is one of the ablest men in the country. Ts Ohio unites in his support in the Democratic convention, his nomination is assured. TiJden’s friends are not discussing his nomination. I am bis friend, and am not aware of such discussion. If Mr. Tilden was fifteen years younger and had corresponding physical strength, there would he no doubt of his nomination. I don’t think the Western States will insist on naming the candidate, as a desire for success predominates over every other feeling. Butler, in my opinion, lias no chance for the nomination; iie would be too hard a dose for the Southern States. I see no prospects of reconciliation between the stalwarts and half-breeds; they hate each other worse than they hate the Democrats. Blaine’s chances are poorer than in 1870 or 1880. Arthur docs not desire a renoruinat.on. lie is a gentleman, a good fellow, and has made a better President than any other man would have done similarly situated. Grant hasn’t a ghost of a chance. Pendleton has no originality, no enterprise.” Mr. Dana further said he did not believe the civil-service commission had accomplished anything; that the Irish revolutionists would not influence the election, as secret midnight conspirators had no place in the republic. In concluding, he said American journalism was progressive, arid California would undoubtedly be one of the greatest States in the Union. Tlie S*s;e Nominated by Dana’s Paper. New York. April 22.—1n a leading editorial to-day the Sun says: In the present state of the discussion as to who shall he the next Democratic candidate for the presidency, the name of Samuel J. Tilden lias risen into greater prominence than any other, representatives of several newspapers have lately visited Mr. Tilden at his home at Greystone. and their report upon the condition of the retired .statesman’s physical vigor is such that he is once more mentioned as a candidate for 1884, and the possibility of his leading the Democrats to victory is again discussed by the press, both Republican gnd Democratic. The sentiment among the Republicans, as expressed through the journals of that party and through several of their political leaders, is that, if Mr. Tilden should emerge from his retirement and appear again at the head of the Democratic ranks, the idea of their electing their ticket in 1884 would practically disappear. If the Democrats should offer to put in office a man of such vast experience and of such known wisdom as Mr. Tilden, the great majorities that swept away the Republicans last fall would be held by the Democrats in the approaching campaign, and the long career of Republican corruption and extravagance would be finally brought to a close. On the other hand, what an end to all petty disagreements and useless bickerings would Mr. Tilden’s nomination bring to the Democrats; to have once more at their head a leader who knows and honors the principles of Democracy, of a wisdom and knowledge of public affairs far superior to men of hi* time, and of an intellectual power that could engraft the fruits of his political studies upon the perverted system of our government and make it such n democracy ns was outlined bv Thomas Jefferson: theorists of every kind in the Democratic party—protectionists, free traders, men who believe in hard money or in soft money—won id all follow Mr. Tildpn’s guidance because there would be no doubt of his ability to deal with the mighty task of reforming the government, nnd because of their confidence in the wisdom of his judgment when applied to all questions of a national interest. And yet. how does this candidate, who would fill the Democrats with enthu-iasm and the Republicans with anxiety, corresivmd with the sort suggested by various members of the Democratic party. If Mr. Til leu is not to lend his party in the approaching contest, what mu*t he the principles of the standardbearer who shall be chosen? Shall he appear ns a representative, mainly, of the pure nnd equitable doctrine of free trade, n theory which the immense indebtedness of this country must for many years to come render impracticable? Or shall lie he a man capable of grappling with the vital needs of the country and ready to head the enormous army of voters who drove out the majority of the last Congress because of their riotous extravagance and indifference to the necessity of reducing the burdens of our taxes? This is a question for genuine Democrats to think over.
Efforts to Recover the Son of Judge McCoinas. Fort Scott. Kan., April 21.—The Monitor, of tjils city, received a letter front Hon. E. F. Ware, brntiier itpltiw of Judge McComsis. recently killed by Die Indians near Silver City, giving nil outline of the situation in the Indian country anti the efforts which are being made to recover Charley MeOotuas. n little son of ttie Judge, who was captured by the Indians when they killed his parents. The good offices of the governors of Chihuahua and Sonora, Mexico, have been secured, a reward lias been offered and a pliotograoh circulated throughout, the entire Indian country. The whereabout* of the boy is not known, and but little hopes are entertained of his recovery during hostilities. Should peace occur lie may be obtained, but should the party in whoe hands he i* be attacked by our troops or by Mexicans there is no doubt lie would be killed at once. The letter says the feeling against the Indians
! among the people throughout Arizona is lni tense, and they are strongly opposed to alI lowing any Indian reservation to remain in Arizona. Beyond this the letter contains , nothing new. RETURNED LIBERIANS. A Party of Colored People Come Back, in a Pitiable Condition. Charlotte, N. C., April 20.—1n a division of a second-class coach of a south-bound train on the Richmond & Dinville railroad, j’esterday, was a group of colored people—two women and seven children—who were just reaching home. They left two years ago to cast their lot on the shores of Liberia, a land, they were made to believe, flowing with milk and honey, and where the only work required to make a living was to go out into the woods and shake a tree, when enough provisions would fall to make a meal for a family of ten. This was their idea of Liberia, nnd they were doomed to bitter dispointment mid long months of homesickness and weary suffering. The party got off the train at Concord, their old home. They all belonged to the Phifer plantation and they were enabled to ! come home through the kindness of their * white friends in Concord, who made up a , sufficient sum to bring them. The party j were just two months making the journey j home, and when they arrived they were ! found to be in a pitiable condition. Their | feet are strangely afflicted, being swollen to ; three times the usual size. Some had lost their toes, which had dropped off as if through leprosy. This disease is said to be caused by insects which attack the people of Liberia. I?i some instances these insects attack the whole body of a person, but generally they are confined to the feet. A physician of Charlotte was on the train and became greatly interested in the case. The sufferers told him that their feet were then in much better condition than when they left Liberia. Their troubles began ou the first day of landing in Liberia, when they saw that their idea about the country was vastly mistaken, and the whole party would have returned in the ship that carried them over had it been i>o>sible. Their friends loft behind are sick and dying and have hopelessly abandoned the idea of ever getting back unless through the generosity of their white friends in this .country.

Austin, Tex., April 21.—A gentleman largely interested in # cattle, who lias just returned from mi extensive trip among the ranches, says ninety-five herds of cattle, averaging 2.500 head each, will be driven out of the State this soring. The entire “drive” is estimated at 240,000 head, against 350,000 last year. Most of these cattle will go to Dodge City. Kan., and Ogallala, Neb. Shipments by rail are said to l>e overestimated, nnd will not probably exceed 50.000. Large herds of horses are also moving toward the markets. The importation of 20,000 cattle, reported from Brownsville, Tex., a day or two ago, are from the Sta e of New Leon, Mexico. Sixteen thousand head of them are already gathered, to be driven across the Rio Grande in a few days. They were purcha'ed by Mr. Ford, a prominent stock man of Colorado, and are intended to stock his ranches in that State. The price paid was sl2 per head. Desperados* Deeds. St. Louis, April 21.—Four brothers named Barlow, and two others. Gall and Winfield, desperadoes, living in the vicinity of Normanvilie, Kansas, and a terror to the community. went to the store of John Normile, postmaster at Normanville, night before last, and demanded liquor. Being refused, they wrecked the store, robbed the safe, tired several shots from revolvers, one of which mortally wounded the postmaster’s wife, and then fled. Sheriff Blair with a posse is in pursuit. An Atchjnson dispatch says: “Three of the Barlow' brothers, who attacked and robbed the postoffice at Normanville. Doniphan county, Wednesday night, and shot the wife of the postmaster, were brought here this evening by Major Crowell, of the postal service, and Sheriff Blair, of Doniphan. They will have a hearing before United States Commissioner Price.” A Financial Agent Convicted. Pittsburg. April 21.—Sylvester Cosgrove, financial agent of the Siemens-Anderson Steel Company, which failed about a year ago, on trial in the County Court for some days on the charge of false pretenses, was found guilty this morning. Suit was instituted by the Merchants’ and Manufacturers’ National Bank, which gave him a loan of $5,000 on the representation of Cosgrove that they had made sales to Miles & Son, of Chicago, to the amount of $15,000. Another suit against the same defendant is on trial. It is alleged that anew trial will be asked for, because Judge White, before whom the case was tried, was found in the jury-room pending the deliberation on the verdict.
Northwestern Wheat Acreage. St. Paul, April 21. — From various reliable sources an approximate estimate lias been made as to the probable wheat acreage in Minnesota and D ikota this year as compared with 1882. In the former State the loss in acreage is noted by land being given up to dairying, but new land broken nearly oft'sets this. While tlie total acreage of Minnesota in 1882 was 2.572.000, this year it is estimated it will be fully 2,500.000. In Dakota last year the acreage was 850.000. which this year will be swelled to 1,000,000. and it is estimated this will swell the total cron to 21,000,000 bushels, as compared with 12.000,000 in 1882.

McDonald’s boom. The Solidity of tho State of Indiana for the New Favorite Son. ■ ■■ -- Bpocl.il to Cincinnati Enquirer. An Enquirer reporter met a well informed 1 and prominent Indiana Democrat at tho I Capitol to-day whose relations with exj Senators Hendricks and McDonald and Senator Voorliees and Representative Holman are of the most intimate nature. In reply to the query as to how the McDonald boom for the presidency was getting along, the Indiana gentleman replied: “Oh, very well.” “Will the Indiana delegation to the next Democratic national convention be solid for Mr. McDonald?” “I tnintc so,’’ was the reply. “.I ust as solid aa the delegation in the: Cincinnati convention was for Mr. Hendricks?” “Ye3, just as solid and just as sincere.” “Then Mr. McDonald means to be a candidate. does he?” “Well, now, I know that Mr. McDonald ha.fi not done one thing, or said a word, either to indicate that he would or would not be a candidate. All this ‘boom.’ as it is i called, has been the result of the talking j done here in Washington by his old col- ‘ leagues in the Senate and by the ex-Senator’s ' many admirers and fi.ends in Indiana. Ido | not think that Mr. McDonald or any of his j friends desire qr will attempt to have tlie | Indiana delegation to the next Democratic I national convention, instructed for him or any one else. His friends do not think that it would be policy for them to undertake to get the Indiana delegation or that of any other State instructed to vote for him. No doubt Mr. McDonald would like to be President of the United States, hut he is not going into any contest for the nomination. He was big enough a man to decline the nomination at Cincinnati when the New York and other State delegations came to him and offered him the nomination. When a man is strong enough to decline a nomination when he could have got it with blit little contention, he is certainly strong enough to stand a good chance of being nominated without ‘fixing’State delegations with instructions, etc.” ‘ Doesn’t it look a little like the old ticket —Tilden and Hendricks?” suggested the Enquirer interviewer. “No, sir. I don’t believe that Mr. Tilden is physically able to stand a presidential campaign, and for this reason I do not believe the Democratic party leaders will deem it policy to place him in nomination.” “Suppose Mr. Tilden was nominated and did not live through his term if elected. If he should die wouldn’t Mr. Hendricks make a good President?” “That’s the trouble. Physically Mr. Hendricks is as bad of! as Mr. Tilden.” “Indeed? The New York papers say that he is looking well.” “I can’t hell* that. I have had a letter from Mr. Hendricks which plainly indicates that lie would not be a candidate; and Mr. , a close personal friend of his, who was here a few days ago, and who met him in New York and had a bilk with him, said Mr. Hendricks told him that he could not think of being a candidate for any office.” “Then you think that Mr. Hendricks is oat of the race?” “I certainly do.” “And that McDonald will be the choice of the Indiana Democracy for the presidency in 1884?” “I do; but do not think that he or his friends will endeavor to have the delegation so instructed. I believe the delegation will go into t lie next national convention uninstructed.” “McDonald for the presidency?” “Yes. sir.” “How about Mr. Voorhees?” “Well, he cannot be beaten for the Senate* The Democrats of Indiana want to keep him where lie is.” “Do you think Senator Voorhees has any aspirations for the second place on the national ticket, in 1884?” “None whatever. I believe he prefers six years m the Senate to four years us Vicepresident.” “Then you think Mr. Voorhees will succeed himself in the United States Senate?” “Yes, sir; I am just as positive as one can be certain of anything in politics.” “It is said he would like to be Vice-presi-dent.” “I do not believe it. He will be here next week; so you better ask him about it.” 1 DICK BRIGHT, BOOM MANAGER. Another Indiana Democrat was asked: “Who is managing the McDonald boom here?” “Colonel Dick Bright, Sergeant-at-Arms of the Senate,” was the response. “Is Colonel Bright a good political manager?’' “He is so regarded. His experience as Ser-geant-at-Arms has given him a very extensive and valuable acquaintance, and he is well liked by those senators who are striving to make Mr. McDonald the Democratic nominee in 1884.” “Is Colonel Bright popular among the senators?” “Very. Republicans like him. They all regard him as one of the best officers the Senate lias had in years.” “Will he he reorganized out of office next winter?” “I think not. There are a number of Repi blican senators who prefer that Dick Bright should be retained rather than be dictated to by Mahone. The Republicans are getting anxious to unload Mahone. ami for that reason it is not thought that there will be any reorganization of the Senate officers other than perhaps tiie election of a secretary, which place has been practically vacant since the death of Mr. Burch.”
Crop Prospects of the West. Chicago, April 22.—The Tribune’s Davenport special says: “A gentleman connected with milling interests has just returned from a trip through southern lowa, ands .ys that winter wheat is in a fair condition, though the acreage is small. Most of the spring wheat is nearly all sown, and some is beginning to appear above ground, and the acreage is larger than usual. Rye is in good condition, and a large acreage of oats is being sown. Farmers are preparing to put in a greater area of corn than last year. From travel through Missouri. Kansas and Nebraska. the same gentleman reports 50 per cent, of Die old crop of corn still in the farmers’ hands.” The Comptroller of Hyde Park Short. Chicago, April 22.—Wm. L. Church, jr., outgoing comptroller of the village of Hyde Pii*k, arranged to meet the treasurer on Saturday morning for the purpose of having ilia accounts verified, preparatory to turning his office over to his successor. He failed to keep the appointment, and to-day the authorities broke open the safe in his office. An examination of his accounts showed n shortage of $7,700. Warrants have been issued for his arrest. He was last seen in the village on Saturday morning. He lias always borne a good reputation. Communing: with a Corpan. Hartford. Conti., April 21. —Some time before last Christmas, Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Brewer lost their beloved daughter, sixteen years of age. So attached was the father to his daughter that he would not permit her remains to be interred, and for all these nion lhs the body has remained in the parlor. A Hartford undertaker goes to the house of death frequently and applies preservatives. Every night after the midnight hour. Mr. Brewer gets up, dresses himself and sits with tiie corpse the rest of the night. lie addresses the inanimated form
| with words of endearing affection, and , speaks as tenderly to it as though his datigh- ! ter heard his words. When daylight creeps into the room, he goes out and again seeks his bed and finishes his sleep. After long persuasion, tiie father has as last consented that a vault be built in the yard, which is to i be so constructed that lie may still hoLd com- | mtinion with his dead daughter. The strange affair is explained by a statement that on her deathbed the girl expressed a fear of being ; put in the ground, and her father promised j that she should not be. Newlmrg’s Centennial. | Newburg, N. Y., April 22.—The religious ; part of the observance of the centennial of j Washington’s proclamation to the revolutionary army at Newburg of the cessation of ! hostilities between the United States and I Great Britain, took place to-day. ApproI priate references to the event were made in j the pulpits in the town of Fishkill and inNewburg. A union service was held this afternoon in the armory, at which were present the mayor, common council, trustees of Washington’s headquarters and most of the clergymen of the city. A Murderer Arrested. Nashville. Tenn., April 21.—The sheriff of Lyon county, Kansas, and Sjiecial Deputy T. N. Dixon, arrived this morning from Emporia, Kan., with And' Taylor, one of the parties implicated in the murder of Sheriff Cates and Deputy Con wav, of Hamilton county, in this State last September. Taylor was in irons when he arrived, and is in jail here, where he will he detained under orders from tiie Governor, who has reason to believe there is danger of Taylor’s being lynched if carried to East Tennessee at present. A Pile-Driver Go<*k Through a Bridge, St. Louis, April 22.—A pile-driving ear, while at work on a bridge crossing a creek eighteen miles from Helena, Ark., on the Iron Mountain railroad, Friday evening, fell through the bridge, carrying with it fourteen men, four of whom were badly injured, one of them. Engineer Fitzgerald, it is feared, fatally, having lost an arm and had one leg and three ribs broken.

Falling! That is what a great many people are doing. They don’t know just what is the matter, but they have a combination of pains and aches, and each month they grow worse. The only sure remedy yet found is Brown’s Iron Bitters, and this by rapid and thorough assimilation with the blood purifies and enriches it, and rich, strong blood flowing to every part of the system repairs the wasted tissues, drives out disease and gives health and strength. This is why Brown’s Iron Bitters will cure kidney and liver diseases, consumption, rheumatism, neuralgia, dyspepsia, malaria, intermittent fevers, &c. Mr. Simon Blanchard, a wellknown citizen of Hayesville, Meade county, Kentucky, says : “My wife had been sick for a long time, and her constitution was all broken down and she was unable to work. She was advised to use Brown's Iron Bitters, and found it to work like a charm. We would not now be without it for any consideration, as we consider it the best tonic in the world.” Brown’s Iron Bitters is not a. drink and does not contain whiskey. It is the only preparation of Iron that causes no injurious effects. Get the . genuine. Don’t be imposed on with imitations.
