President Hayes and the Office Holders.

President Hayes has issued an order to of.
ticers of the general government in which lie
says:
mo officer should be required or per
mltted to take part in the management of
political organizations, caucuses, conventions
or election campaigns. Their right to vote
ana 10 express their views on public cues.
TONS, either orally or through the press, is
not denied, provided it does not intefere with
The discharge of their official duties. No as.
sessmCnt Tor political purposes on officers OF
subordlnqtcs should be allowed This rule i.
applicable to every department of the civil
service. II should be understood by every
ot1cer OF the general government that he Is
expected 10 conform his conduct TO its re.
qurcments."
The President says the time has come when
there must be change, lie has no objection
10 any OF the federal officials who thought
that patriotism and duty to party demanded
Ihat they should manage the primary meet
lngs and the conventions resigning their Off
ces' but they must either give up one or the
other. The order, if carried out, will
De II severe blow to the Republican organi.
Hation, but it will be welcome to mem
bers of the party who were too modest 10
take prominent part in party caucuses and
conventions, and who on account of their
modesty were not thought of sufficient i'm
portance to hold office. 1t will be curious
spectacle to see the old political Warehouses
eager for the fray and yet restrained Ivy the
fear of losing their offices.
by his order President Hayes has cut down
tie bridge that carried him over. If it had
been promulgated and carried out by his pre-.
decessor,thc Louisiana returning board might
have been composed of different materials
federal office holders would have had No
place on Republican electoral tickets, and
Hayes could not possible have been Counted
IN" after being defeated at the polls. In is,
SUNG his order, correct and commendable as
it is, Hayes condemns himself.

TIE TURco-RUssIANW AR.-.On Thursday
last there was some furious fighting between
the Turksqnd Russians, in Asia, in which the
Russians were driven back by the Turkish
artillery. The sTurks claim to have killed
and wounded 1900 Russipns, and their dis
patch adds with charming simplicity: eve
did not occupy the ntrenchments which the
Russians abandoned, but returned to our
former position" AS an offset to this, the
Russians have crossed the Danube in boats
at Galatz, and have built bridge. The
region into which they have have penetrated,
Dobrudscha, is described rs exceedingly
miasmatic and unhealthy, and the Russians
arc therefore endeavoring to effect passage
at some other point. The river line is too
long for the Turks to defend successfully, and
the Russians will most probably force n
passage ut one or more points The outlook
for the Turks is by no means favorable, and
II other pow ers do not intervene the Moslem
pride will be humbled, and the followers of
Mahomet will in the end be driven out of
Europe.

iANGMAN's DAY IN PENNSYLVANIA
Last Thursday, eleven men, including ten OF
the notorious gang known as Molly Ma.
CURES, were executed in Pennsylvania. The
persons executed at Pottsville, were James
Carroll, Hugh Mcclellan, James Boyle, Jas
hoarity and Thomas Duffy, murderers OF
policeman Benjamin f. Yost, and Thomas
Munley murderer of Thomas Sanger at
Wllkesbarre, Anthony Lanahan, murderer
OF John Reilly, apolitician; at Mauch Chunk
Alexander Campbell, Michael ]. DOYLE and
Edward Kelly, murderers of John P. Jones
and John Donahuc, murderer of Morgan
Powell. They all proclaimed their innocence
TO the last, but the proof against item was
strong and undoubted.
The "Molly Maguircs" is the name given
to secret association in the mining districts
OF pennsylvania, composed principally OF
coal miners. The constitution and bylaws
protessed the purest morality, their motto
being Faith, Unity and True Christian
Charity" but their professcd principles were
simply cover for the most diabolcal crimes,
For twenty years past they have flourished
unchecked, and their crimes became bolder
and less concealed, until finally il became ne
cessary to break them up Or the property of
the coal mines would become valueless-
They operated principally against "mine
bosses" who were faithful TO their employers
and these men were killed upon the slightest
provocation. If Molly Mcguire fancied
himself insulted by his mine boss, he made
complaint before the division to which he be.
longed, and orders were issued to kill the
boss. Men were selected to do the deed who
were strangers to the condemned man, who
was waylaid by perhaps four or i've men,
and shot down without an opportunity for
defence. In some cases men were shot on
their own doorsteps or in the midst of their
families, and the murderers nearly always es.
capped to claim their blood money. So pow
efinl dld the organization become, and such
fear was cngendered, that few were bold
enough to appear and testify against them
They also took part in politics, and members
OF the order were elected to the local Offices.
One OF them, indeed, was nearly elected AS
sociale Judge of the very court which con-
demned his associates who were hanged last
Thursday.
Finally several railroad corporations OBJ.
tanned control of the coal mines, and Frank
lin b Gowen, President of the Reading Road
saw that order must be restored and life
made more secure, or the property must be
abandoned He procured shrewd detective,
:. who succeeded in joining the order, was
made secretary of division, and thus obtain
ed possession of all their secrets. By means
of this man-James McParlan-the ten muir
derers who expiatcd their crime on Thurs
day, were brought to justice. The power of
the order, it is believed, has been broken,
and the Mollie Maguires will henceforth only
have place in history as IN organization as
cruel and boodtlirsly as any with which the
F world was ever cursed.

HARVEST farmers are now in the

gratifying 10 be abe TO state that the yield
will probably be the largest for many years.
The quality of the grain, too, appears to be
unusually good. There have been no COM
plants of insects, and but little of rust; the
weather has been favorable, and all things
have conspired together in favor of the crop.
If the war in Europe should last until the
crop is sold, and prices keep up to the pres
ent standard, 1t will help many hard work.
ing farmer to get out of debt. The hay crop
will be but moderately good, the cool dry
weather of May having been unfavorable to
it. Some fields Of oats look remarkably
well, but we do not believe the yield will be
up to the average. Corn is growing rapidly
and larger acreage than usual has been
planted. 1t is crop that may be said to
never fail. So that altogether the prospect
before our farmers this fall is u pleasant one
The benefits will not be confined to them
alone, for when the farmer is prosperous the
entire community shares in his prosperity.

DAMAGE BY LIeHTNINo,-Duringt the storm
of Thursday night, June 2lst, three cows be-
longing TO MIR. John Scarborough, who
lives Mill Green, while out in the field
were struck by lightning. Two of them
were instantly killed and the third was
so severely injured that it is not thought it
can recover.
The same night the lightning struck q
locust tree at Mr.. Joseph Edges, near OAR
lington, crossed from that to another locust
tree near by, and thence to his meat house,
which was in proximity to the two trees.
The lightning ran down one side of the build
ing, killing instantly five of Mr.. Edges hogs,
which during the storm were lying under the
meat house.
About dark on the same evening light
ming bolt was seen to descend near Samuel
Streets stable, Jarrettsville, striking fence
post and SCATTERING it to pieces. From
thence it ran along the ground in zigzag
course, burning pathway nearly a foot
wide through the grass, and finally disap-
peared in small stream of water fifteen feet
from the fence post.
"A hen and nine chickens belonging to
Mr.. Ross, near Forest Hill, were also killed
by lightning the same night.
