The appointment Of Mr.. Pierrepoht
meets with general favor from oil par
ties. The New York World says Of that
gentleman;
Mr.. Pierrepont is not unknown to the
people of this City and State. He has
exercised judicial functions here, and
for many years has been a leading mem
ber of the bar. His privete and social
life is without stain or reproach. He
has been the successful legal adviser Of
large properly interests in this commu-
nifty, and his professional honor is pure.
He has not been tested by, and has not
had the benefit of, the exercise of execu-
tive OF Legislative f1nctions either in the
State or nation. But that is not a Sc
rious defect. He will go to Washington
VITA the best wishes of his fellow citi-
zeRs. He has been known for many
years as faithful friend Of the Presi-
dent, and his appointment indicates that
such friendship has been appreciated
and is reciprocated by the President, and
for that reason he will be held RESPONSE
bic for a large measure of good influence
over the conduct of the Executive.

BURNING OF THE BURNETT COAL
WORKS.
The Watchman, Bound to Tree, Wit
nesses the Incendiary Work.

YOUNGSTOWN, o., May 3d.-The Bur
nett Coal Works Of Messrs. Andrews &
Hitchcock, situated in Hubbard, were
burned last night. The engineer who
had charge of the bank, Dennis O'Leary,
gives the particulars as follows;
"About midnight wns in the office
and started to go down to the enginesto
fire up. AsI was leaving the Office 1
saw something coming up toward the
works, which / took for a dog, but soon
saw several objects moving along. i
then started to get my revolver, which
was hanging near the engine, in my vest
pocket. When L got into the engine
house, saw three or four men, painted
black and dressed in old ragged mining
clothes, standing by the engine. Two
of them pulled out revolvers and grabbed
me, saying: Come with us and we won't
hurt you They then blew out the
lights and started with me towards the
woods. After taking meabout one hun
dred yards into the woods they com
menced tying me to tree with a rope.
1 saw that other men we're setting the
engine house on fire, and asked them
to take me further into the woods, as l
feared the boilers would explode. They
then. took me about ten yards further
and tied me up, when some seven or
eight fellows came along. Those were
the ones who had been firing the build
ings while 1 was being bound. They
were all blackened and had been drink
ing, as 1 could smell whisky plainly. ]
could not see where the fire was first set,
but one fire was set in the Office, anoth-
er where they oil the cars on the plat
form, and another near the engine. /
Iloosened myself by the aid of knife,
shortly before three o'clock, whenI went
and got the bank boss to give the alarm.
They would not let me get my vest or
revolver, and these, with 81 in cash,
were burned. 1 did not see more than
twelve men, but they said there was one
hundred and fifty with them. l am sure
they were miners"
These works are connected with the
Atlantic and Great Western railway by a
switch, and are the largest and best ar
ranged works in the valley. The min
ers here have been on strike for sever
al weeks, but Friday last the company
got out one car of coal which is the pro-
bable cause of the outrage, as at many
of the banks they prevented the opera
tors taking out coal for their own pri-
vate use.

The Cnse Nutshell.

The efforts of the G Catholic authorities
in New York to gain possession of a por-
ton of theschool fund, or in other words,
to throw their church schools upon the
public treasury for support, has called
forth some forcible and admirably writ
ten protests from the leading gnewspapers
of both parties. Nowhere have we seen
the whole case more tersely and conclu-
sively stated than in the following para
graph from the NATION, which, as every
one familiar with the character of that
paper knows, never gets excited or per.
mits the pressure Of any subject TO dis
turb the calm, imperturbable logic with
which it weighs current questions.
Speaking of the Catholic ambition to Sc
cure the supremacy of sectarian educa-
ton, it says:
''MOreover-and here is eonsidera.
ton which the people of this country
must face sooner or later, and they may
as we'll begin to face it now--the educa.
ton given or superintended by Catholic
priests is bad education; indeed, fol
political purposes, worse than none. II
units children for the citizenship of free
states If extended widely enough il
would ruin this Government. It has
been tried for ages in various countries
and has in all worked unutterable mis-
chief, and destroyed the sources of ma
tional greatness by killing the sincerity
the truthfulness, the courage and high
mindedness, on which national greatness
is based. The thoughtful and patriotic
men Of all all Catholic countries are to
day getting rid of it as national curse.
Aud it would be an astonishing specta
Gle if after the priests had been excluded
from the work of public instruction il
France, Spain, Italy, and Bavaria, they
were to be allowed to carry it on her,
with taxes voted by American citizens.
Compromise with these men, in short
never succeeded, and never will. The
only thing that does succeed with then
is their rigorous subjeetion to the com
mon law"

"It is enough to disgust any journal
list with his own profession, and make
him sick of his own age and ma
ton, to wade day after day and month
after month through the unbroken
slough of vile ISLANDERS in which many
of our newspapers root and wallow.
There is not a man IN public life, or
who is much before the public in a pri-
vate employment, wko can hope to es-
cape the mean and degrading suspicious
which lurk for him in every unclean
slum by his pathway through life; there
is not man or woman of special prom
inence in public or private life, who can
hope to escape the nire flung at every
passing creature by the wallowers Of
newspaper slough"
The head of brother Comley is level.
There are many professed editors who
need Just such alashing. We use the
term ''professed' in its generic sense,
for an editor who controls the conduct
of his paper, is rarely guilty of abuse
or vituperation.

BI- The Cincinnati Gazette calls up
On the Catholic authorities to publish
the oath Cardinal McCloskey took pre-
vious to the conferment of the ll,erretta
The Pope's letter to the new Cardinal
says:
'It is our wish that beforeyg receive
the berretta you should take and sub
scribe with your own hand the oath
which will be presented by the aforesaid,
our beloved soR Cesar R0ncetti, and
send It to us.
If an American citizen can justly take
such oath, it IS proper that American
citizens generp7ly should know the ma
ture of the same. The Catholic church
opposes all secret, oath bound, associa-
tons, and Will expel or 'excommunicate
its members who belong to the same.
Yet, it would appear thai it tolerates Sc
cret, oath bound associations within it's
own body.

The Fremont Messenger, whose editor
appreciates true manhood even when
found in the party to which he is oppos-
ed, pays q tribute we'll deserved in the
following paragraph in regard to the
nomination of d. l.. June of that town
as q member Of the Board of Public
Works:
"Mr. June Is eminently qualified fol
the position, and, aside from his detest
ed politics, would make as competent 9
member of that important board as any
man in this State. Mr. June is a strong
man among the working men, for there
are very few men in this State that have
furnished employment to so many men
during the past thirty years. His friends
would be gratified to hear of his nomina-
ton"
Ohio has no tr7ler man, no more ar
dent and faithful Republican than Daniel
L. June of Fremont. If he consents to
be candidate before the convention he
can count on the solid vote of this sec
ton and large following of friends
from all portions of the State.-[ Sandus

BD- On Monday last there was zip
pie Of sensation in the court which was
trying the Beecher case. Mrs. Tilton
entered the Cont room and handing a
letter to Evarts had it passed up to
Judge Nelson, with the request that it
he read aloud. But the Judge held it
improper to do so and held the matter
for consideration. Even the hungry re-
porters are only able to surmise what
the note contained. It's contents we're
promised TO be made known on We'd
nesday morning, if the court and eounsil
could agree.

A Nice DistlnctIon.

Speaking of our remarks about the
Port Clinton papers rushing into print
with the alleged confession, the Reporter
thus indulges its propensity to ''spht
hairs"
eThe JOURNAL has the complacency TO
remark that it had the SAME information
the Port Clinton Papers had, and upon in
vestigation found the story false, and
refused to publish it. 1t is a cool as
sumption on the part of the JOURNAL
that it had the PRECISE information we
had. We know very well that it had no
such thing. We heard the story from
many different sources; it was ''town
talk" here for several days. We used
our best endeavors to find out the truth.
We wrote the account and held it back
two days, aud at the last moment, almost
before the paper was put to press, we
received such direct and positive assur-
ances that we could hesitate no longer
in using it.
Our brother is happy in being a lin
guist of no mean attainments. And yet
it were better not to be happy, than to
be unfair. He first uses "same' and
'precise" as synonyms, thereby outrag-
ing his great antetype, Noah, in order
to create a loophole, and then under
cover of the difference between the
terms, disappears through the loophole
of his own creation, but unfortunately is
unable to draw the hole in after him.
His linguistical attainments are un-
equal to such feat as that. Behold the
use of the terms as synonyms.
"The JOURNAL has the conaplacency
to remark that it had the SAME informa-
ton" 4'It is a cool
assumption of the JOURNAL that it had
the PRECISE information.
Our neighbor here uses the terms as
interchangeable, either ignorantly or
with the purpose to cover his retreat.
James is not ignorant; he is only wary.
Hence he adds: eve know very we'll he
had no such thing" And here his
knowledge of the difference in terms en-
ables him to create that loophole. The
JOURNAL did NOT pretend to have the
PRECISE (superstitiously exacA informa-
ton the Reporter had--that would have
been scarcely possible, but it did pre-
tend to have the SAME (exactly simhar)
information, upon which the Reporter
and News based their sensation. And
we allege as reasons for having the SAME
Exactly similar) information he had,
the same reasons he assigns that we
could not have had the PRECISE (super-
exac0 information he had:
''We heard thestory from many different
sources; it was "town talk here" not on
ly for several days. but for six days
before we went to press. ave used our
best endeavors to find out the truth, 4"
and as a consequence reached the sAME
information as our neighbor-and more,
for our information disposed of the story
as false in every particular. But we did
not pretend to have the PRECISE infor-
nation the Reporter man had-that
would have been presumptuous-an
assumption" even, to draw it mild.
There is shade of difference, scarcely
precep6ble, perhaps, to any but an arts.
tic eye, but James optics are keen.
There is enough difference to prevent il
from being PRECISE, and James knows
it. As philologist he excels, and is
entitled to "head the class.

trouble in Henry County, in regard to
lands along the Wabash and Erie Canal.
The matter referred to having been
called 10 the attention of the State Aud
itor, he has replied through the State
Journal. After referring to the state
ment as it originally appeared in the cor
respondence of the Toledo Blade, he
says:
] have thought proper, for the benefit
OF parties interested, to say that repre-
sentations have been made TO this Office,
which, if correct, would indicate that
certain canal selections made under the
acts Of 1927 and 1928, certified TO the
State by the Commissioner of the Gene
raj Land Once, and confirmed by the act
Of Congress approved March End, 1865,
have been overlooked or lost sight of by
the Department at Washington, and
that some Of them in consequence have
recently been entered at the Land Of
fee at Chilhcothe as Omitted States
land" and perhaps patents have been
issued therefor. Such patents, It may be
needless to say, viii prove worthless.

Bas- Judge Taft, whose uame has been
mentioned in connection with the Re
publican nomination for Governor, is on
record as in favor of a distribution Of
the school fund. He would be a good
candidate for the Democracy, perhaps,
but would not sit well on Republican
stomachs. The manRer of his being
brought ont was so evidently the work
OF a secret caucus, Cincinnati politicisns,
headed doubtless, by the good Deacon
Smith, though there was considerable
sound about it, there was little strength
in it. The best men of the county long
ago conceded that the North or North
west was entitled to the governor, and
this effort to locate another candidate in
Cincinnati, was palpable breach of
of good faith, which would have killed
itself, even if the record Of Judge Taft
had not furnished 'kilIng frost" But
that record, however honest on the part
of the Judge, is so at variance with the
views of the great body of American cit
izens, not merely Republicans, that he
could not expect to consolidate the Re
Republican vote, and without that it
would be simply impossible to elect him.
