"a 1t is just as we expected. A
SILVER of indignation runs along the line
of the Administration organs over the
recent visit Of Vice President Wilson
to Gen. Breckenridge at Lexington. The
Washington Republican does not at
tempt to vail its bitterness. 1t says:
Alast Vice President Wilson has found
his tongue again, shaken the reefs out
of it, and joined Judge Kelley's party.
y few weeks ago he participated in a
centennial celebration of an Abolition
organization a Philadelphia, and few
days ago found his way to the bedside
of ex Vice President and ex rebel Gen
eral Breckenridge, at the latter's home
in Kentucky. Meanwhile he found
time to talk; and the burden of his
speech rested upon the cOnundrum which
is ever the text of his thought: ''Who do
you think will be our next Presidents"
Some one ought to crafty the curiosity
Of this old gentleman by answering that
it will not be a man who is so ''unan-
imOus" as to be at home i'm Massachu-
sets as well as in Pennsylvania and
Kentucky.

~ The publication of the Lynch
burg Republican is resumed, under
the auspices of the new proprietors,
Messrs. A. W. G. Nowlin and NJ. l..
Comann, who have become the pur-
chasers Of the newspaper, including
the presses, type, fixtures, debts and
good will. and who will hereafter
conduct the business under the name
and style OF NowTin & Comann.
The Republican is among the oldest
newspapers in the State, and has
heretofore enjoyed a large share of
the public favor and patronage, which
we hope will continue to be extend
ed to it under the present manage
ment.

Knoxville. May 10. 1875.

Vice President Wilson's journey
through the South is causing uneasy
feeling at Washington. The chief
organ devotes good deal of space
to him, though not calling him by
name, and insinuates pointedly that
he is trying to gain popularity as q
Presidential candidate. 1t thinks
that is the trouble with Judge Kelley
too. Isn't it just little significant
that the organ aforesaid feels obliged
to belabor every Republican who
presumes to squmt at the Presidency?
Can it be that the third term plans
are endangered by such aspirations.

o. j. S. Coulter. recently fore
man of the Commercial office,
Leavenworth, Kansas, committed
suicide with laudanum. He had been
expelled from the Typographical
Union, and published as a rat, which
is supposed to have caused him to
commit the deed. The Printer s
Union of thatc city has often passed
infamous resolutions regarding per-
sons who have dared to act lndepen-
IDENTITY Of them. Mr.. Coulter Is said
to have been an honorable man.
Thus does the mob despotism of
Unions crush the manhood Of men
who dare to rebel against them. So
it is every where that these tumors
modern civilization have projected
their diseased growth. The mere
fact that q man follows this or that
calling makes him the bond slave of
the craft.

DEATH OF JOHN HARPER.
From ROweWs Newspaper Reporter.

FROM hOWeuS newspaper Reporter.
John Harper, the senior member
Of the publishing firm Of Harper &
Brothers, died at his residence on
the 22d inst. in his seventy-ninth
year. John Harper was born in
Newton, Long Island, in 1897, and
was. the second of four brothers
James, John, Joseph and Fletcher.
Their father was farmer in moder
ate circumstances. James and John
we're placed in printing offices in
New York, where they served their
apprenticeship and gained an ac-
curate knowledge of the business.
In 1917 John and James formed
Co-partnership and opened a small
printing establishment in Dover
street. By great energy and indus
try and close economy, the firm
prospered. In 1928 John Wesley
Harper, a younger brother, having
thoroughly learned the trade, was
given an interest in the firm, and in
1926 Fletcher, the youngest brother,
was admitted as a partner, and from
that time the firm was known as
Harper & Brothers.
In 1850 Ha,per'S Monthly was FIRST
published, and this met with so great
a success that they determined, in
1857, to publish Harper's Weekly,
and i'm 1867 Hayper's BGzar.
In 1850 their establishment, then
on Cliff street, was entirely destroy
ed by fire; but with their usual en-
ergy the ruins were hardly removed
before they had procured plans for a
new building. and in 1854 this was
completed and is still occupied by
the remaining members Of the firm.
Mr.. Harper was a man of business
and a domestic man and christian.
His cheerful temperament and gem
tlemanly bearing gained for him
many friends, both literary, scientific
and those in the humber walks OF
life

sion Of from so to 100 miners, with
torches. and armed with guns and
clubs. marched to the dwellings OF

them notice to quit work or the pen
atty would be death. The result has
been that Payne's men refused to re-
turn to work this morning. Three
of hutchinson men. while on their
way to the shaft, were followed by
a gang Of women and children, and
pelted with stones until they were
forced to seek safety with the con-
stables.
