Importance OF German and Irish Miner.

COLUMBUS, Quo, July 1O-Fifty foreign
ers, mostly Germans and Irish, passed
through the city this morning on their
way to the Rend Mines in Perry county,
on the new Ohio Central Railroad, They
have but little experience in mining, but
as the coal is mined almost altogether by
machinery, this makes but little difference.
There is some fear Of trouble between the
new arrivals and the striking miners. The
party came direct from Castle Garden,
where they were landed. There are now
fifty swedes workingin the mines to which
the new immigrants were sent. There
were one hundred and fifty men employed
in the same mines last month, but one
hundred refused to work at the reduction

DemOcrncY.


PHILADELPHIA, PENN, July lq.-The de-
pision OF the State Democratic Peace
Commission came so late last night that
it was impossible to learn accurately the
effect upon each faction OF the party.
While only the local Democracy are d.
rectly interested, yet the warning Of the
faction left out in the cold-that, owing to
the Commission, the State may be lost
next fall-has caused no little alarm
among the friends Of Hancock. The Ran.
dali faction declare that they. will not
avail themselves OF the opportunity given
them by the Commission oil having mi.
nority representation OF eight members Of
the Campaign Committee Of twenty.one,
and that the Wallace organization, recog-
nized by the Commission as the only
regular one, may go aheRd and elect Han
cock as best they can. The Wallace people,
however, give smiling assurance that the
sulks OF their defeated rivals will soon be
over, and that all will work together for
Hancock.
Dan Dougherty. who, wearing uni.
form OF the American Club, which stands
by WALLACE, presented the superb soldiers
name at Cincinnati, wishes plague on
both their houses, and cannot conceal his
disgust. Even the successful faction js
not little apprehensive for the result,
and evidently wishes that the decision OF
the peace commission had not been 90
sweepingly one.sided. There Is no ques.
tioning the great local influence OF Ex-
Mayor Yaux, and others who lead the RAN
dali faction, and should they, from re.
venge or other motive, remain inert dur.
ing the campaign-or, worse than all,
should they place obstacles in the way ol
the Wallace iaction-it Is admitted that
the consequences may be disastrous. Har-
mony seems as far of as ever, and as there
is not to be another session oi the commits.
sion before the election, everybody ex-
poets to sec the Hancock campaign in this
city conducted by conflicting Democratic
elements. Considerable blame is laid up
on the Peace Commission for its failure to
accomplish the desired result.

CLEVELAND, o., July l0.-The violent
rain and wind storm which passed over
the greater portion Of Cuyahpgs county
last night did much damage to grain crops,
Winter wheat, ready for the harvesters,
was beaten 10 the ground SO thoroughly
that it can be secured only with much diff.
ticulty. Many heads were broken from
the straws. Wheat cut and standing in
the fields was blown down and thorough
IL drenched with water. Oats we're also
much damaged. Reports from several
townships indicate that the corn crop is
about the same as ruined, the rain and
wind SO completely beating down the
stalks that they cannot rise again.

Indian Territory Invaders Mean nusI.


ST. LOUIS, July 1O.-Tbe scheme to set.
tie on government lands in Indian Terri.
tory is gaining strength daily, and quite a
boom in its favor is being started here. F.
G. Graddock, d lawyer and one of the
company, who came here to work up the
scheme, has received kilograms from
Eftingham, Maroa and other places in
Illinois, stating that a number OF persons
will be here Monday, ready to so to the
Territory.
Advices are also received from Western
Kansas that hundreds Of families, who
have suffered from drought in that country,
are on their way TO Oklahoma. A letter
mas been received from II. L. Hill, an old
scout, who was with Captain Payne last
spring, in which he says the party which
left Wichita, Kas., last Sunday, arrived
safely at their old headquarters, and found
corn and vegetables planted in the spring
in fine condition. Jack Bettle, scout
from Texas, was found there, and he stated
that thousand men from Texas would be
in the Territory In ten days. Mr.. Hill
wrote from Arkansas City, at which point
he telegraphed to numerous parties along
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe and
Kansas Pacific Railroads to push on at
once. 1t looks as though the invasion Of
the Territory would be formidable and
that II the military are instructed to eject
the intruders there will be conflict.

SECRETARY THOMPSON
Sounds ihs Keynote of the Campaign
In IndIana-A Ringing Speech.

TERRE HAuTE, ISD., July l0.-Secretary
Thompson formally opened the campaign
here tonight by a two hours speech. He
was escorted from the hotel to Armory
Hall by an escort Of Garfield Guards, one
hundred strong. He reviewed lIancock's
career as commander in Louisiana. In
speaking Of the bloody shirt issue, he said
that II it is forced into this campaign 1t
it will be because the Democracy won't
allow it's burial.
OF HanCock's Inauguration, II elected,
he said the Democrats are loudly boasting
and threatening that Hancock, II elected,
would take his seat. That meant, II Il
meant anything at all, that Tilden aud
Hendricks, who, according to their theory,
were elected, did not take their seats be-
cause they were towards. II General Han.
cock is elected fairly and honestly, Of
course be will take his seat; but II he is
not elected fpirly and honestly be will not
take his seat, and that Ia all there Is about
1t, and the people Of the United States
would not be scared or bulldozed by all
this personal bluster as TO what the Demo-
Gratis are going TO do.
He further Raid that the right and privl.
lego oi every citizen TO vote as be pleased
in the coming contest would be secured, II
necessary, by the exercise Of all the power
OF the Administration, supported, II need
be By the army and navy, and he warned
the Democrats that the man who now oc.
cupies the Presidential chair, although he
said but little, would be found equal to
any emergency that might arise in the
protection OF citizens in exercising all the
privileges to which the Law entities them.
He passed q glowing eulogy on President
Hayes, and concluded by comparison Of
the personal and political claims OF Gar.
field and Hancock as Presidential aspirantR.
His eulogy Of General Garfield was the
srandest and most eloquent passage in a
speech which was remarkable for It's brill.
fancy and effectiveness.
The hall was crowded with large and
attentive audience, who frequently ap.
plauded.

Wheat Slightly Damaged, bat Good Yield
Favorable Weather. Needed.

The wheat acreage is the largest known
in this county; yield good and at least one.
third larger than last year. The crop is
slightly damaged by wet weather in few
localities on low ground, and slight dam.
sge by rust. Most of the crop is in stack
and ready for threshing. The oats crop
is little above the average, very rank and
slightly damaged by falling. 1.-THE weather
is favorable the crop will be 800 per cent
better than that Of last year.
Hay is about an ayearge crop; two.thirds
better than last year. No hay harvested
yet.
The corn prospects are very favorable,
but needs working very bad, the wet
weather having prevented q proper culh-
yation. A few weeks OF dry weather and
the crop will be excellent.
Potatoes, good but very rank growth.
Apples, an average yield.
Peaches, none worth mentioning.
