A Double Murder ut Church.

JACKSONVILLE, ILL.,. April 15.-The com
munity is excited over a double murder com
mitted at the African Methodist Church last
night,
While the crowd was coming out after the
evening service, WIN. Baker stepped upon a
lady dress: She res ented the act as inten-
tional. A friend, Tobias Hanna, took up the
quarrel, as he had an old grudge against
Baker, and after few words drew revolver
and shot at him. The weapon was knocked
up, 50 that the ball missed Baker but struck
q bystander, Clarence Hubbard, killing him
almost instantly.
Not content with this bloody deed, Hanna
fired again at Baker, inhcing a fatal wound,
from which he died at O'Clock this morning
All the parties concerned are colored, and well
known in this city. Hanna was Immediately

Hon. James H. Slater who has been elected
United States Senator from Oregon, to sue
coed Nipple Mitchell, Republican, whose
term expires March 4, 1879, was born in San
canon county, Illinois, In 1896 His early
education was limited but he succeeded in
mastering the intricacies Of the law, and has
been a successful practitioner at the bar. He
emigrated to Oregon many years ago, and
has been a prominent Democratic politician
there for the past score Of years. He was
elected to the Territorial Legislature in 1857,
and again In 1858, and then became a member
of the lower house of the first State Legisla-
ture. In 1866 he was elected district attorney
for the Fifth Judicial District of Oregon, and
filled that office two years. In 1870 he was
elected to represent the State in Congress,
but was not renominated for second term.
Mr.. Slater resides in the eastern portion of
the State He declares himself an opponent
Of initiation, but favors the substitution Of
greenbacks for national bank notes, and be-
lieves that the currency should be placed
upon q coin basis.

The New Hampshire canvass is not pro-
crossing very tavorably for the Republicans.
Bill Chandler, the stalwart patriot and Flor
ida manipulation, has forwarded information
to Washington that has put the faithful
there in fever Of alarm. Chandler frankly
confesses his belief that the State is hope
lessly lost; that there will be no Governor
elected by the people, and that the Repub-
licans will be in minority in the next Legis-
lature Friends Of the administration attempt
to cast doubt upon this intelligence by alleg-
ing that Chandler IS doing what he can to de-
feat the party because of hostility to the
President; but from other sources come the
same tidings of approaching Radical disaster
in the Granite State, and 1t is believed that
this time, at least, Chandler will prove true
prophet

QUEER COMPANIONS.

The statements of Eugene Hale, the chair
man Of the Republican Congressional Cam
paign Committe, published in our dispatches
of Saturday, show very clearly the sincerity
with which the combination between Repub-
Leans and Nationals in this State has been
entered into. When asked how his party
stood on financial issues, Hale responded: sit
occupies the same position that the Republi-
can party has always held In order to
show what position that party s'has always
held" we republish the rest Of the interview
explanatory of that assurance.
"Then there is to be no change in the con-
duct Of the campaign"
"There is nothing in all the talk of a pro-
posed change. We intend to make the fight
Maine was fought. The speakers we are
sending out West are the same that helped
in Maine. Mr. Gorham and [ have agreed
upon this. Theyare the kind Of men we want
to make our fight for sound and redeemable
currency"
'You did not then propose to make any con-
cessions to the Greenbackers?"
''Not In the least; even in districts where
our party could be coalescing with the Green
hackers to defeat the Democratic nominee,
course. The only safety for the party is to
keep right along on the honest platform. We
would lose both morale and strength and
votes by any other course
We should like to see some prominent Ma
tional step to the front and reconcile these
declarations Of the manager of the Repub-
lican canvass with the published platform of
the new-hedged party.
What possible advancement Of Greenback
ideas and principles could result from such
combination as this? 1t is very easy to see
how there might be a very efficient combina-
ton upon many material issues between Dem
ocrats holding to the doctrine enunciated by
Judge Thurman and those men who choose
to call themselves Nationals; but we can see
no grounds for the cooperation Of the Repub-
leans and Nationals for the defeat Of Demo-
Gratis. This must be apparent to any honest
minded man who has sincerely allied
himself with the Nationals from the
conviction that that movement alone
gives expression to his political views
The truth about the matter is, that no such
men have gone into this movement, in this
State at least, and we must look outside of
all considerations Of political principle and
conviction to account for this most unnatural
alliance. The movement means nothing else
than the disintegration of the Democratic
party and it's sole inspiration is personal
spite and disappointment on the part of the
few soreheaded Democrats who have gone
into and the old greed Of office, rapacity and
rascaIity on the part of the Republicans, who
constitute the basis of the movement.
1t is not very hard to find the real purpose
of the combination in this State. It is moth
ing else than the old Radical party under a
new name, assumed because Of the disrepute

Here it is all in q nutshell. The National
movement is nothing else than an appeal to
that Sense Of justice and love OF peace Of the
people of Louisiana" of which Anderson's
CONSIDERS speak-an effort to secure for him
that redress" which they have promised
him. We have no doubt there will be some
very eloquent special pleading done In the
interests of individuals between now and the
election; but let no true son of Louisiana
allow himself to be diverted from the true
and fundamental idea of this very thin and
gauzy deception. Let him bear that in mind
and vote accordingly.
