The LOST BALJooN-It is announc.
that the dead body Of a man was found
on the shore Of Lake Michigan, on
Friday last, near Miller's Station, Ind,
which is believed to be the corpse Of
George Burr, who accompanied Prof.
Wise in his balloon ascension from st.
Louis, nearly month ago. The body
was neatly dressed, but the features
were 80 discolored and swollen as not
to be recognized. The collar button
was marked &c. b." in monogram, the
sleeve buttons "B.," and the linen and
underclothcs "B." In tho pockets
were found st. Louis papers Of Sep
tember 27, the date of the ascension.
Friends of Mr. Burr have been telc.
graphed for, as there is no doubt that
the remains viii be found TO be those
OF that unfortunate gentleman. Search
will be made for Prot. Wise's body.
The balloon was seen at Miller's Sta.
tion on the night following the ascen.
sion, and must have been wrecked on
the lake soon aiterward.

that had il not been for Ouray q orders

Bureau about forty hours before any

agement were cavorting over the West

What the total cost OF gpunisbing' the

will be is hidden in the bosom OF the
future. If it costs rs much to thrash
these red devils as il did to demolish

Treasury will be moro than two mill

The TRuE INDIoAToR.-The popu
lar vote given for our nominees iol
county officers, and the ballots cast by
the delegates in Convention, clearly
indicates to every candid man that the
people of Clearfold county, at this
time, wanted James Mabafley for Sbcr.
IN, J. F. McKenrick for District At
torney, and Andrew j. Jackson fol
Jury Commissioner. This fact canno,
be disguised, although men equally as
competent and deserving were do
fcated.

1t was a tight squeeze, but the col
ored brother was worried through in
Cincinnati, and Mr.. Geo. W. Williams
will be the first of his race to sit in the
Ohio Legislature. 1t was evidently q
bitter pill for many of the pale faces
to vote for the sable candidate, but the
storm was big enough to sweep him
in. The average Republican majority
in the city was about 1900, but Will
Jams was cut down to $50. Enough

Ohio has a colored Representative.

AN ExAMPLE.-The Wilkes. Barre
Leader curtly states the case in this
way: "ln Ohio there are at least three
soft money Republicans to every one
hard money Democrat, The only
consistent hard money Republican
that has sat in Congress from that
State for q number OF years is General
Garfield. Yet the soft money Repub.
licans did not vote against Foster, as
the hard money Democrats did dagainst
Ewing. The explanation OF this is
that Republicans are not nearly so apt
to permit themselves to be lured away
from their party allegiance by the un-
satisfactory position of a candidate
upon an incidental issue. Democrats
should be able to learn lesson from
this. Republicans regard the success
Of their party as the first essential, and
wisely depend upon the future to sat.

HONEST MONEY Some of the "bon,
est money" Republicans of the third.
term persuasion are bringing into
prominence President Grants veto OF
the three hundred million imitation bill
They think it will help the boom,
While they are considering Grants
financial record they might go back to
the time when he packed the Supreme
Court of the United States with Jus.
tices Strong and Bradley In order that
they might aid in reversing the de.
cision of the Court against the consti,
tutionality Of the legal tender act
Chief Justice Chase (who died Dem.
ocrat) had delivered the solemn decl.
sion of the Supreme Court that Con
gress has "no power under the Consti
tuition to make anything but gold and
silver legal tender in payment el
debts" Some powerful monied inter.
ests were deeply interested in secur.
ing q reversal Of that decision and
Strong and Bradley agreed to assist in
overthrowing it if appointed Judges Of
the Supreme Court. That was the
condition upon which they received
their appointments from Grant. 1t was
a conspiracy against the integrity Of
the Supreme Court and the Constitu.
tion of the country. It's well enough
for the "honest money" Republicans
to remember this when they consider
Grants notwithstanding Patriot.
