This is the principle in obedience to which an employer thinks more of his own pociet-book than he does of his workinzman's. DEMOCRATIC DECLARATIONS. Tbe annual banquet of the Iroquois Club at Chicago, a few evenings since, was an occasion of much good feeling and for sound Democratic declarations, in harmony with the past and the present of the party. It is well in festive hall and forum for Democrats to be outspoken upon all questions which are to come into general discussion before the people in 1884. The elections in 1882, and more recently, bear cheering testimony that the Democratic party, after March 4, 1885, is to control the destinies of the Republic Tte people everywhere declare that the Republican party must stand aside. As a party it is identified with every species of viciousnets that has disgraced the history of the country for years past, and since the Democratic party is so soon to take the helm, it is well that the people should know and become thoroughly familiar with the principles upon which the Democratic party will govern. The traditions of the party are all that could b9 desired. It Btarted right. It was founded upon everlasting principles " of justice and liberty. Colonel William F. Vilas responded to the toast, "Democracy," at tbe banquet, and In giving a historical retrospect of trie party, said: "On the one hand were those who distrusted the people, end favored a strong, centralized form of Republican government; on the other hand were thoe who believed in the people, and regarded the institutions of Government as almbSe only inamach as they subserved thecDmmoa welfare of equal humanity. The latter formed a popular party, whose foremost banner was flung to the breeze by the hand that penned the Declaration o Independence. For half a century after the Presidency of Thomas Jefferson that party bare with gigantic ease the new world upon its shoulders." The Democratic party to-day is Stronger than when Jefferson mapped oat the grand highways of its progress, and the people find it necessary to the perpetuity of their liberties, aud hence it is being called from exile ti eminence. Colonel Vilas called upon his comrades to "plant tbe old standard of Constitutional Democracy and beat the long roll! Summon the hosts of Liberty and set your ranks in order! If any fear the battle, send him to the rear! If any will not ser.ve God, but prefer Mammon, give him cafe conduct to the enemy! Invoke in the house of counsel the faith and pbilan thropy of Jefferson; bring again to the field the daring alacrity of Jackson! Aud in the sunlight of our Nation's destiny, go, 'where Democratic principles lead the way,' to fight the people's enemies and win tbe people's victories!" Bat the question is, What is it to win victories for the people in these days of peace? It is to defeat the Republican party. When the Republican party goes down the rights, interests and liberties of the people are ex aited. The Republican party is the creator and protector of monopoly. The Democratic party will inaugurate an "aggressive and relentless wr against the dominion of monopoly and the oppression of iniquitous taxation and unjust laws." Colonel Vilas said: Many formt of ih's tj ranny beset us. Bat one cverskadow si hi et demands the earliest redress, and challenges the greatest effort. Its long, felonlou entac e have t ound their prehecsile g-Ip upon every m !e of primary production, eva y to ro t f eal a. I nsy are fastened spot) Uiar-lSi, all (Jiteund condition. It is

Tnere tand the enemy: there t lies the battlefield, and there the battle is at band t I give yoa joy In the prospect of ltl The foe Is Sturdy and defiant. From their ramparts of riches, piled In menacing mast, the loid of the tariff proclaim their purpose and power to maintain tnat sum f flnanclil villainy, protective taxation. ' With skillful Ingenuity they have lightens J other burdens to make this more secure, and they fl'l the air with sophistries. The simple question Is, Is it right or is it wrong? For, if wrong, it robs tha industrious, wealth-producing workers cf this country ot more than 150,000,000 of their earnings every year to fill the chests of a favored das. If wroug. It is a stupendous wrong. All the doo rioet and t'adltion ot Democracy, springing frem the seil of liberty, cry out sgalas; itl It is beresy, false and pernicious, that our million m ist labor in forest and field, la counting-room and offlce, to maintain any class of "manufacturers utdsr pretense of pampering any form of Industry. The spoil enriches only the few master j, enervates labor, and strikes enterprise with paralysis. With every material native to our soil, our manufacturers, with profitable adventure, onirht to fill our own ships, manned by our own hardy seamen, with products for every buying country on the. glabe. But what d we tee? Our exports are moetly from the farm and mine, carried in tbe ships of free-trade England. Our manufacturing Industries, fitted and limited only to our Cctlttous market, wi n price upheld by force of legislation, are la a state of Intermittent fever now stimulated to overproduction, then gasping with siagnatton while the excel lent avocations of shipbuiiJlng and navigation, which ought to furnish manly industry to hundreds of thousands, languish and decay. The tariff is a form of slavery not less hateful because the whip is not exposed. No free people can or will bear it. There is bot one course. The plan of protective robbery must be utterly eradicated from everv law far taxation. With unfllchitg steadfastne&s. but moderats'y, witaout destructive haste or violence, tbe firm demand of freedom must be persistently pressed, uutil every dollar levied in the name o( Government goes to the Treasary, and the vast millions now extorted for a class are left in the pockets of the people who earn the money. To crush out monopoly is tbe supreme demand. To tax the poor for the benefit of the rich undercover of a tariff or by any other bubterfuge, is an iniquity which the Democratic party is pledged to abolish, and from this time forth until the close of tbe election in November, 1834, Democrats will ceaselessly denounce the robberies practiced by monopolists under the protection of a Republican tariff. OUTLAWED CHIMES. Mr. W. I. Fish back, in an open letter to Congressman Feelle, mikes the bold statement that in the campaign of 1SS0 in Indi ana a large Bum of money was used by Re. publicans to aid in the perpetration of the most flagitious crimes. The letter, as may well be supposed, created a profound sensation in Republican circles. Tbe terrible arraignment of Republicans "high i J otTce" was startling, crushing, humiliating. Mr. Fish back was not supposed to be a disappointed politician. He holds a lucrative office, said to be worth annually from $10,000 to $."0.003. He was supposed to be pulling comfortably in the Republican harness, ready and willing to do the bidding of the bosses. Suddenly Mr. Fishback, with warwhoop and battle-ax, comes to the front and barges Upon Republican bosses in Indiana crimes for which the penalty is years cf confinement in the Penitentiary. Not a Republican paper in the Mate or cjuntry essays one word in the form of denial. They are as dumb as paving stones. Why? Because Mr. Fishback' s arraignment admitted of neither denial nor extenuation. It was as grim as death and as solid as a mountain. No dynamite fiend ever more successfully mined a city or threw a bomb. It created in Republican circles the most demoralizing consternation. There was only one source of consolation, one spring which supplied oblivial waters. The law eime to the rescue of the criminals, and now they plead the "statute of limitations." Their crimes are outlawed. There is chuckling in the wigwam. Mr. Feelle can not be brought before the Grand Jury. What Mr. Fishback says he knows of men who "connived" as felonies he can keep from the public. The crimes Mr. . Fishback charges against Republicans "high in office" can not be punished, because the law protects them, shields them, permits then to mingle in society and hold up their heads, instead of sendiDgthem to the Penitentiary. How merciful is the law! S'ich crimes as "buying Y0te8,bribing election oificars to stuft" ballotboxes and falsify election returns, hiring repeaters" and permitting arrested felons to escape, are outlawed in two years, and Mr. Fishback, a lawyer of eminence, of culture, of high character, a gentleman who stands in tho front rank of his learned profession, a chevalier taut peur et tan reprorhc, is BO generous that be does not tell what he knows nor what Mr. Feelle knows until the law declares the crimes perpetrated by Republicans "high in office" are outlawed by the statutes, and prosecutions and punishment impossible. Jlencs Republican bosses are happy, even joyfuL In the presence of auch facts the law loses its majesty and shrinks to contemptible proportions. Look at the situation. See the poor, miserable wretches tramping "oyer the road" to Prison, No.th or South. These tramps and vagabonds have stolen a coat to cover their nakednesi, or a loaf of bread to appease their hunger. They are said to belong to th criminal class. Now look at Republicans "high in ofliee'' scheming scoundrels, vigilant villains, ori ma-cursed criminals, who expended $400,000 to "buy votes, hire repeaters and bribe election officials to stuff ballot-boxes and falsify elections." They go free. More, tney are rewarded. I hey are per mitted to suck the Treasury, 8 tat or Federal; they dress in pur ple and fine linen, and fare sumptuously every day; ana Mr. W. P. Fishback, know ingof the crimes and knowing the crim inals is po generous that he makes pablic what he knows at a time when tbe law is powerless to punish. Since the United States Grand Jury can not take cognisance of the crimes Mr. Fishback declares were committed by Republicans high in office or connived at by them tbe case goes to a grander jury than the Grand Jury. It goes to the people of Indiana, to the honest people everywhere throughout the broad laud. Mr. Fishback has stated the cue. lie is a United States Court official, aud it is in order for tbe people to'act, Mr. Fnhbsck shows conclusively that the R?pub!icm victory in Indiana in 188) was brought about by crimes the most infamous that er er dis-

graced an election anywhere. Ha shows that the men who conn'ved at tbe crimes bare been rewarded by official p-.sitions, to the everlasting disgraoe of the State and the Republic. Befors the bar of public opinion.

thank God, the crimes are no; outlawed. The people are the Grand Jury, and as certainly as the raills of the gods grind on, crime will be punished. DB. JOHN O. WALKER. Yesterday the mortal remains of Dr. JohnC. Walker were quietly laid aay beneath the sod of Crown Hill Cemetery. Obituary notices have appeared of the dead man, and it is not the purpose of this writing to touch vpon such incidents as have been referred to by those who have brought to the attention of the public reminiscences of bis public career. It had its oases, its sun-burnished elevations, its high ambitions, and inspiring hopes. It also had its gloomy pathways, its disheartening shadows, its struggles and failures. So far as mortality is concerned it is ended. "The desire of power in excess caused the angels to fall, the desire of knowledge in excess caused man to fall; but in charity there is no excess. Neither can angel or man come in danger ot it," and, after all, "there is a divinity that shapes our ends, rough hew them how we will." Dr. John C. Walker was more than an average man. In his youth he shaped events. Tie had creative power. The mysterious agencies of his mind were recognized by men older than himself, and he stepped to the front by the royal right which superior intellect al ways confers. "Much has been thrown Oa living canva?. muca been cast abroad in words or iomet import: mncn oeen rramea Hj plastic bands to shapes of awe and wouder; Bat nothing ever bodied out the soul Iu 1 most daring nLtht." And thus it happens that in dealing with the dead it is more profitable for tbe living to know those soul yearnings for the gxd which to the charitably disposed are of greater worth than pictures on canva or marble statues. It would be grand beyond any work of Raphael or Micbael Angelo, if the conception, as it took shape in the mind of Peter Cooper, to build an Institute to help the poor to knowledge could be pictured to the world. The great philanthropist lived to give form and efficiency to his conceptions, and died at last to live in perpetual gratitude because his own hands had made tangible the high and holy conceptions of his mind. Who shall ever know the hal loaed dreams of high ambition that anima ted the mind of Dr. John C. Walser when his admiring countrymen songht to confer upon him the second highest office in their Rift, and were prevented because Lis years were not equal to his capacities? Who shall know the majesty of his patriotic hopes when he donned the soldier's uniform to take bis chances on the field of strife? That his purposes were exalted none deny who knew him well and best, but none may know the penalties cf disappointment. May it not be told in his own graphic verse: "And this is all 1 A. tvn and tattered wreck, Cant out upon a bleak and bairen saure, A f nientent only of tbe ga lant dock Which used to ride the storm, but nevermore Can breast tba breakers of life' rugged sea. Norsmoothlv gall where winds and wavei ara lieht. No more! no more can life brlnij Joy to me lo Jove, ana nope, ana Hie, ana light, gooan.'ght!" In saying farewell to Dr. John C. Walker, it will be well to remember that he was as unwavering in his friendships as he was fearless amidst perils charac eristics which all manly men at mire. That he bad more mind force and will power than physical strength doubtless accounts for his early de parture. That he saw death casting its somber shadow athwart his pathway none will doubt, aud those who stood by him in the final struggle will testify that tbe closing scene was heroic Dr. Walker died well. CREMATION. Discussing the objections to cremation naturally suggests the introduction of wellconsidered objections to the "disposition of the dead by burial." It is held that "the burial of the dead pollutes the so.l, air and water, and is a real danger in crowded cemeteries." No language can by any pos ibility do justice to tbe polluting effects of a crowded cemetery. Every fact is hideous. The soil reeking with rottenness, the air burdened with deadly vapors and the water running rank with poison are onpleaiait to thoughtful people, and still we are told burial is the Christian method, and cremation is denounced as heathen. Cremation is objected to because it may be used to "destroy evidences of crime," and is "too costly for general use." Dr. W. R. Curtis, of Chicago, remarks that the objection relating o the evidences of crime is "outweighed by the advantage that might be derived fiom the general adoption of cremation, and can be obviated by the enforcement ea?y precautions," and that "the cost Is reducible to a very small amount by means of modern appliances." But. in the discussion of burial t i. cremation, as a means of disposing of tbe dead, the most formidable objection to cremation will be fonnd in the popular belief that it is anti-Christian. Why it is not just as Christian at any other method the severest investigation utterly fails to d if close. The process of decomposition by the method ot burial is slow, and the cantemplstioa of it repulsive beyond description. The living know tnat worms and reptiles are banqueting upon the festering remains of the dead, and they turn from such thoughts with horror. Nor is the old Egyptian process of embaln;'.og.the dead scarcely lees revolting, and since it is known that the Khedive fifes up his locomotives w'th mummy fuel, cremation might as well have been inaugurated in Nile land 3,000 years ago. By the cremation process in the improved furnaces of the period it is said that "the body does not come in contact with the fire at all, only with an intense heat of 2,000 or more. At this tempereture the body simply withers away into a pure white ash. The gases generated are burned in a separated chamber adapted to the purpose, and no smoke, odor, or other unpleasant phenomena occur, to offend the sensibilities of anyone, be they ever so acute." This pure white ash is urned or buried; and from it no contaminating earth, air or water flows. Taking this view of cremation it is likely to be eventually adopted. The living can contemplate it with greater serenity, and the Christain will at last realize that in the resurrection the flat of Johovah will readily reach the original elements without regard to the methods

employed to bring about decomposition. It is prudently said that "when the crema

tories are more numerous an 1 accessible, as they no doubt soon will be, the necessity for an expensive lot in an expensive Cemetery, an expensive casket, f.nd all the pride, porno and circumstances o' a funeral a la mode. may be dispensed with." That will be an immense blessing to the living, for of all the humiliating exhibitions of fool sh ambition and pride, which now disfigure Christian burials, the modern funeral stands at the head. At any rate it is wise to look at such subjects, free from foolish superstitions, and diecuss them upon their merits. rmisoxALS. An Ashland.

Another Hatch of X-ies Pot to Beet Some lutereftting Information. Salem Deim cat. A few davs a'0 the secret organization known as the "Grand Arm? of tbe Kepuslic" met a: Indianapol:e, and while in ortsion BOine petty, catap John l!publican pontician.who w a di?grace to the Order.procured the adoption of h resolution Condemn ing tne action ol the Democrats in the last LegiMatare f ir na'sing an act aoühinK the SildierV Orphans' Home." Tbe facts, the whole facta, and the prtcite facts astbev exist are as follows: Tbe revelation pas -d or the "Orand Army of the K?pubhc ' is based on a falsEf-absolutely fa'.35 assumption. The man tuat drew the rrsolutioo cither knew that no such act was passed by the Legislature, and purposely lied, or was too ignorant and stupid to understand his mother tongue when written down bfjre him. The Soldiers' Orphans' Home was first established about 1W8, in June, prob ably. The Legislature appropriated money from lime to time to keep the institution in running order. In 1870 the building was accidentally burned down. The Legislature appropriated money, and a new building was erected. In 1877 the latter building was burned, and it being heavily lusured, the money was taken and the present' building was erected. Now, up to 1879. there bad been no public institution in Indiana for the better care and education of the feebh-ninded child rm of the State. During the cession of the Legislature in 187'J Mr. Hubbard, of Henry County, ('he Institution is situated in Henry County) introduced a bill in the Legislature durit.g that session which provided that the feeble-minded children of the State should be tsken car of and educated at the Soldiers' Orphans' Home at Knightstown. And the said billuf Mr. Hubbard, who was an ardnt Republican, provided that the ollice of Trustee of Soldiers' Orphans' Home should be abolished. and that ibree Trustees be selec ed for the Feeble-minded Institution; aud inasmuch as the Soldiers' Orphans' Home was on the same ground, and iu a part cf the same building, that the Trustees of the Feeble-minded Institution should look after and manage the Holdie's' Orphans' Home. That Legislature of 1870 was a Kgpublican Letslatuie don't you forget it and Mr. Hubbird's bill passed, and became a law. It remained in statu quo, as above stased, the feeble-minded children in the south wiDg of the building, and the soldiers' orphans in tbe north wing rf tbe building, until the Legislature of 1883 met, and no change lias bren mado in the abnvpmentioued law by the Legislature of 1883 whatever The practical condition of the two Institutions remains precisely tke same as formerly. The only act of the recent Legislature on that aubject, or relating thereto, was as follows, and nothiog else whatever: That the General Assembly should and did elect the Trustee; instead of allowing Governor Porter to appoint them. Likewise, the s&'ary of tbe Trustees was fixed at ö00; and the Republican Trustee who was "legislated out," himself, in his last report, recommended the t-alary to be so increased. We do not expect a single Republican paper in tbe State to copy tnis article, because it is the truth; and it seems Republican papers, since tbe adjournment of the Legislature, have uniformly refraioed from as mucn truth as possible, when reforring to any act passed by the recent Legislature. The Soldiers Orphans' Home stands unabolished. No Democrat ever thought of abolishing the Institution for soldiers' orphans. It stand jest as a Republican Legislature, in 1879, fixed it. The soldiers' orphans occupy, at all times, a separata and distinct part of the building from the feebleminded children. They play separate; they go to school separate; they sleep separate; tbeyeat separate; they have separate teachers, and they do not have anything in common with the feeble-minded children. The soldiers' orphans are as much separate and apart from the feeble-minded children as if they belonged to a different race of people, save and except the sole fact that the two Institutions are upon the same piece of ground near Knightstown, Indiana, Stlllwel!

LIVING ON HUMAN rLESU.

Tba Trial of Alfred Packer for the Marder of Ula eix Comrades and Bnbeaqneat Feasting on Their Flesh Dxsvai, Col., April 12. The trial of Alfred O. Packer, the Banguan ghoul charged with murdering hve companions in me oanguan country in 1872, in progress at Lake City the last few days, was concluded to-night and the case given to the Jury. The evidence shows that a party of six organized In Utah, in 1372. to prospect in Southern Colorado. While in the icin'ty of the present site of Lake City blinding storms coming on they lost their way, the f jod give cut aud for days together thty lived on rosebuds. Tne men became desperate, some crazed. While his comfanions were in this condition. Packer deiberately fell upon and butchered the whole party, and for several weeks lived on fleah cut from their bodies. Yesterday in the course of the trial Packer made a statement. Calmly and for two hours he related the experience of the party from their tettiog out in Utab, doting with the most sickening details of the murder and subsequent feasting on bumau liesb, claiming the killing was done in telWeftttite. The evidence shows that each mem ber of the party, except Packer, possessed quite a larjre amount of money, upon which tne ghoul has since been living. Afwr niDe years of waudering he was captured a fa weks since near Fort Fetterman, Wo. While the evidence is entirely circumstantial, yet it is demed conclusive. A verdict of guilty is confidently expected. The SlcCormick at tha Head The name of McCormick la a familiar one to the farmers of all s-ctions of tho world. The manufacturers of these machines always keep pace with the progress of ni cianism by adding all improvements suggested by experience in the field. Mr. J. H. Hevwood.the general agent for McCorni'ek's goods in this city at Nos. 1C7 ar.d 1(JU Kut Washington street, was viaitei by a Sentinel representative, to Inquire into the outlook for the machine trade this season. Mr. Hey wood kir.dly showed tbe reporter odo of the twine binders on d splay in the alesroom. The exterior view shows an improvement in the painting and finishing, and it has been wonderfully simplified by the cuttin off of superfluities. Its ease of adjustment from the new steel spring teat, its double adjotabie speed, the ball and socket j .intfor driving the sickle, tbe angle iron c ittr bar, the malleable guar js with steel ledger plate, the improved grain reel, the platform apron roller?, driven in me'al b xing instead of weed, as heretofore, and last, btt n least, the wrought iron equalizer, all combine to keep the McCormick in the lead. By these improvements themahiue is reduced in weight, and is at least 20J pour.di liehter ban other machine!, consequently much essiercf draft. Although tue sales of the McOormick had been double that of any other machine sold in this taction last season, the advantage of the new improvements there will be little difficult in urpafsing the record of last year. Mr. Hey. wood desires us to say to the farmers of this secüon who want to see a model cf perfection in harvesters so call and see tbe McCormick. Alarming siens!
