Prosecution of Bogus Butter Men. CHICAGO, Aug. 26.—The last of the

prosecutions recently instituted by H. T. Howe, butter inspector, was disposed of by Justice Arnd this morning. The firm of Linskoog & Freiberg, dealers in produce were arraigned for selling oleomargarine in the guise of butter. Both defendants pleaded guilty and the court then assessed a fine of 325 and stayed execution. Mr. Howe said in a few days he would swear out twenty more warrants against offenders of the same character. The inspector was asked if the violation of law extended to restaurants which serve oleomargarine at their tables. He stated that he was preparing evidence against such establishments, and that the proprietors of some well-known refectories might be dragged into the court soon.

Press Opinion on Johnston's Back Down. &

It is Believed to be a Case of White Feather.

this week are all up on the their hoofs about the Lamb-Johnston correspondence' The main trouble is that they differ so. We observe, however, that while the Democratic papers are unanimous and savage in expressing their views, the Republican papers touch the matter delicately and the Independent press inclines to the opinion that Johnston has made a mistake.

Rockville Tribune: Johnston has opened the floodgates of scandal by declining to meet Lamb on she score- of moral character. His letter is a somewhat extraordinary production, taken by and large. Practically he invites every Democrat and dissatisfied Republican to overhaul his own record. He has "called spirits from the vasty deep" and we rather think they will come,

Marshall Messenger: The- Republicans in the Terre Haute district have nominated a fool for Congress.

Mr. Lamb, the Democratic candidate) challenged Mr. Johnston to joint debate upon the issues involved in the race, whereupon Mr. Johustoa responds that he has heard stories affecting the moral character of Mr: Lamb which M*. Lamb has not publicly denied, therefore he will not meet Mr. Lamb in joint discussion of the questions involved in the campaign, and no way at all involved in the moral character ot either of the candidates.

It would have been much more manly in Mr. Johnston to have said: "I propose to show up your bad moral character in the joint discussion proposed as an offset to the weakness of my position on publio questions, and if you provoke this disoussion take the consequences.' Byt he seems to say by his present attitude: "I am holier than thou, and therefore you get no discussion out of me. I belong to the Young Men's Christian Association and you don't therefore I will not in public attempt in your presence, but only behind your back, to attack your position or to fortify my own. Get religion and become as I am, and then I will discourse with you on a^airs affecting the temporal welfare of all the people of the United States, but my lips are sealed in your presence Until that is done.

Good bye, Mr. Johnston." Sullivan Democrat: "Mr. F. E. Ballard, the prohibition candidate for Congress, doej not regard himself as too pure to meet Hon. John E. Lamb on the stamp. We presume he has a good a record as Johnston."

Johnston Challenged

CBAWFOEDSVUiliE, Ind., Ang. 25, 1886. Hon. James T. JohnstoD, Rockville, Ind., DEAR SIB:—Deeming A full consideration of the questions before the people of our congressional district to be best obtained by a joint discussion on the part of the representatives of the various political platforms, I therefore invite you to meet me in a discussion of the issues tendered by our respectives parties during the present congressional campaign.

Hoping that the preliminaries may be speedily and satisfactorily arranged, 1 ait ait your early reply, very truly yours, T. E. BALLJBD. Hon. James Johnston.

Now, the proper thing would be to get all three candidates on the stump together. Johnston would object to that, of course, as Lamb gives him a nightmare everytime a joint debate is mentioned but we are sure the proposition to have a joint meeting between all three candidates is acceptable to Mr. Lamb. The people, too, we believe, would approve of it, and if the Greenback candidate could be also brought into it so much the better. But, the question now is what will Johnston say to Ballard? Will the pure and undefiled and spotless Johnston say to Ballard that he hears he isn't a moral man? Will Johnston play Pharisee again? Oh, what will the Pharisee say now?

Ballard

T. E. Ballard, who, we presume, lis a good, moral man, for the reason that he is running for Congress in this district on the Prohibition ticket, has sent a challenge for a joint debate to James T, Johnston, the Republican candidate, who says John E. Lamb isn't 8S good amoral man as he is and for that reason he can't engage with him on the stump in a joint discussion of the public issues of the day. Mr. Ballard, although, presumably, a pure man, has already sent a challenge to John E. Lamb, and because Johnston was not challenged by him at the same time Johnston was beginning to think that his superior moral qualities had overawed Ballard BO much that the latter had concluded to let him alone. But Jeems has been doomei to disappointment, as he will be several times before the campaign is over. This is the way Ballard goes after him:

Married on the State Line.

LAFAYETTE, Ind., August 28.—A very romantic wedding ceremony was performed on the line dividing Indiana and Ohio at a point on the L. E. & W. rail-) road. An excursion train was run from Mjilberry, Indiana, and by the time the train reached its destination about eight hundred people were abroad. Upon arriving at the dividing line David Clark, candidate for-sheriff of Clinton county, and Mrs. Mary Hawkins, of this city, alighted from the cars, Clark standing on the Indiana side and Mrs. Hawkins on the Ohio side. A minister who was in attendance for the purpose straddled the dividing line and joined the happy couple in matrimony. The crowd formed a circle around the parties and gave three cheers for the bride and groom. A brass band serenaded them and delighted the excursionists while returning home yesterday morning.

The pale moon distilled its silvery beams in shimmering beauty o'er a scene of enchanting loveliness, including among other attractions a maeouline arm entwined around a.twenty.-two-inch corset filled with plump and animated sweetness of the feminine gender of perhaps 117 pounds avoirdupois. A rich baritone voiee gaged down to a soft mellow-ripe- peach-of-the-Crawford-vari-ety tone poured into the not unwilling aurioular of the damsel sentiments like these: "Fair Ethel, true it is that I possess little of this world's goods, but don't you think our love for each other would more than recompefa Her young brother had cut the hammock rope.—Danville Breeze.

Lamb trimmed up Jim Johnston in the "Jint" debate correspondence. Johnston is not popular here and will fall below his vote of two years ago, which was then muoh less than the regular Republican majority. Many Republicans are found who are disgusted with Johnston's cowardly refusal to meet Lamb, and Lamb will gain lots of votes thereby.

The City Council vs. the PolicePoisoned by Ice Cream—Minor Mention.

VINCENNES, August 27.—[GAZETTE special 1—The charges brought Against the police of this city by council—that is three of them—is that they have been caught asleep during their hours of duty, and that they have been seen in a state of intoxication on several occasions, that they know of certain gambling dens and won't squeal on them, frequent the saloons in working hours, etc. The charges against Marshal Calloway are believed to be trumped up and told to the polioe committee, for no one^hardly any—believe their ptory —but here it is: He was directed to "pull" a house of prostitution, and instead of doing so took one of.the "girls" in swimming. People who know Marshal Calloway can never make up their minds to think him capable of doing such an act. He will make it very unpleasant, he says to the originator of the fabrication and "pull" him. Our city council has prepared an ordinance imposing a tax on olothing drummers—those fellows who go about the country, taking one's measure and send him his suit. They must now take out a license before they take a measure for clothing, or pay a fine. This is done to protect home dealers and toilers. The Republican county delegate convention met in this city Wednesday and nominated a pretty fair ticket. Geo. Holmes and family, of this city, were all poisoned last Sunday night by eating ice cream of their own making and, fortunately, by medical aid, were restored. A curious thiDg about the poisoning is that the sugar and milk were procured from regular dealers and the lemon' flavoring from one of our first-class drug stores. Since the toll over the bridge across the Wabash at this place was some time ago reduced, the Illinois trade from neighboring counties, has been greatly increased in
