10 day may be the centralized tyranny of to-
morrow under military government.
What is the duty of the Democratic party
A national crisis is impending. The ques.
ton must be answered by every Democrat
in the land; it must be answered by every
delegate to Cincinnati; it must be answered
by the National convention to be there as
sembled. 1t is not alone that record of the
establishment and preservation of a free
Republic for three score years, the
record of Democratic rule that daz-
zled the history of nations with
the radiance OF liberty for SO many years
Dot upon that alone must Democrats rely.
Not alone upon the principles of constitu.
tional government SO long promulgated and
so long defended must the Democracy once
more appeal to the country. The hour de-
mands one supreme effort of patriotism. All
personal preferences must yield to
the general good. The respect and conf
dence of the people must be challenged and
demanded by the nomination of statesmen
of the purest character and highest talents
pure, honest, brave, able. Localities should
not dictate nor selfish ambition influence
nor partisan prejudice control. The golden
opportunity is here presented. The whole
people and nations beyond will watch the
action of the Democracy with breathless in
terest. Let not this opportunity be lost.
The delegations go to the convention fol
the most part uninstructed. This is true Of
Minnesota's quota, but never in the history
of the State has a more important en-
passage charged with graver responsibilities
left its borders. Whatever may be the re-
suit of the convention, Minnesota will moi
be disgraced as at Chicago. The delegation
will prove faithful to the Democracy of the
State and of the nation, and in a few
months more the Democratic majority OF
the country will control the government
government founded on the great principle
of the people and for the people.

AFFAIRS AT AUSTIN.

AS Seen and Noted by Globe" Envoy.
AUSTIN, June 10, $780, Things are
lively just at present here. The Austin Cor
net band have just been reuniformed, and
present gay and festive appearance as they
parade the streets to the strains of their own
beautiful music. The band, under the man
agement of Mr.. Bert Miller and the assistance
of some very fine home talent, are bringing
out the Dutch Spy to large and enthusiastic
houses. Some of the amateurs are
especially fine. Miss Eva Fenton, as
Nina Wayne, True Blue, was loudly
cheered at each appearance and won the
enconiums of all who heard the piece. She
is an actress of no mean pretensions and
well deserves the praise she received. The
third presentation will be on this evening.
The taste in the arrangement of the tab
leauxs and their successful presentation does
much credit to the manager. The profits
are to be applied toward paying for the new
uniform of the band.
MIR. Geo. w. Merrick, whose unac-
countable disappearance from Chicago a
few weeks since and sudden appearance
here in state of mental alteration, has
been duly chronicled, is fast recovering I'M
der care of competent physicians and that of
his relatives. 1t is thought his total recov-
cry is only question of time, which causes
general rejoicing among his many friends
here, where he at one time resided. Mr.
n. Merrick, brother of the gentleman, re-
CARDS the case as the effect of sunstroke,
which is supported by the opinions of all the
physicians.
The appointment and confirmation of
Charles Davidson to succeed r. I. Smith,
lately deceased, at the final SEES
sion of the Senate, causes general
dis satisfaction here, and will probably
cause Dunrell the loss of Mower county. The
idea that constituents have any rights that
he (DunnelD is bound to respect, is absurd.
The citizens generally, regardless of faction
or party, signed petition to have Mrs.
Smith, wife of the late appointee, continue
as her husbands successor, but although 1t
manifestly expressed the wishes of nine
tenths of the people here, yet, as before re-
marked, it received no attention. The time
has already come for this district to send the
famous salary grabber into private life. and
unless the signs of the times are all wrong
this is just about what they intend to do.
The arbitrary appointment in direct oppo-
sition to the wishes of all classes of people is
the universal topic of comment, and some
steps are to be taken at once to express their
Indignation and disapproval.

INDIANA is an October State. At least thi

INDIANA is an October State. At least this
is the verdict of the supreme court of the
State. It has decided that the amendment
to the constitution adopted at the last cleo
ton was not legally ratified, because it did
not receive majority of the whole number
of votes cast at the election. An election
will therefore be held in Indiana on the
usual day of holding such elections. The
people of that State will no doubt testify
their devotion to Democratic principles by
rolling up a good round majority for the
candidates of the party.

Lessening The Chances of Success.

Tha faiInre to nominate General Grant

The failure to nominate General Grant is
also to be regretted, because it has lessened
the chance of success at the polls.
We have no abiding faith in the
success and perpetuation of Republican
principles, but we believe that success
could have been made more assured by the
nomination of General Grant. We can not
now hope to obtain single Southern cleo
toral vote. Our only hope is solid North.
This we believe possible, and even probable,
but its attainment will require the most
jealous efforts and systematic work.

TIE platform of the prohibitionists is an
excellent one. It contains only one plank,
and that is the liquor plank. All the ills
that man is heir to is attributed to the use
of liquor as beverage, and the demand is
made that the manufacture and sale of the
stuff be interdicted by law. If there was
any prospect of the success of the ticket and
the carrying out of the principles enunci-
ated in the platform, there would be no vote
against it.

REPORTED MURDERS.
A Family That Needs Attention.

Family That Needs Attention.
Yesterday there was rumOr on the
street that girl of unsOund mind, about
IA years of age, and living with her par
ents in small frame building near the
bark works, had killed her father Martin
Funk, by striking him on the head with 4
stone. An 1NTELLIGENCER reporter visit
ed the premises aud ascertained that the
rumOr was unfOunded, and that it had
probably originated from the fact that ON
Monday the girl had found u drunken man
lying on the pike near McGrann's park.
and had caught him by the heels and
dragged him across the pike, and then
given him Il pummelins, probably with
the intention of waking him up.
The Funk family, however, ought to be
looked after. They are very poor, and
live in the most squalid manner in a single
room. The girl, as stated above, is of un-
sound mind, and clad in rags. The old
man is a cripple, having had one of his
great toes cut Off recently, and the old
woman his wife has no visible means of
subsistence. The residents Of the neigh
borhOod do what they can do to provide
for the poor family, but the case is one
that calls for action OH the part Of .he di-
rectOrs of the poor.
There was also q rllmOr on the street
that young man who left this city about
fifteen months ago had been convicted of
murder in Ohio, and sentenced to be hung,
but investigation failed to establish the
truth of the report.

In its report of the meeting and of the
application for the tishermcn's pardon, the

also represented by Mr.. Davis, who
claimed the law under which they were
convicted was unconstitutional. Attorney
General Palmer remarked that he had ap-
proved the law. Lieutenant Governor
Stone, as president of the Senate, had
signed it and the governor had affixed his
signature, making it a law, and he didn't
see how, at this present time, board of
pardons could repeal law. This remark
created quite breeze, and Mr.. Davis sat
down."

THE attorney general seems to think
that to ask the board of pardons to de-
eide upon the cOnstitutionality of laws
is asking a little too much; and he is
right this time. 1t is pity, however,
that he could not also be consistent. He
thought otherwise when he was called on
to find reasons for pardoning Kemble y
Co.
The board of pardons is not a court OF
appeal, although from the ravenous
way in which the lawyers close around
it when it meets, it has that appearance.
Nobody doubts now that it is genuine
nuisance. 1t was reform of the new
constitution which has proved to be no
reform. If there was no other objection to
it, the fact that practice before the board
had become lucrative branch of the
lawyers business would suffice to show
that it should be abolished. The mercy
and justice got from it are too expensive.

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
THE RIOT AT the HILL.

A Fight Soon Startod and Rapidly Spread.
Last Saturday night there was a party
held at Mrs. Stetfy's White Horse hotel,
in the chill" two miles north of Bricker-
vile which ended in a disgraceful fight,
and pistols and billies were used by
those not possessed of the proper
pugilistic requisites.
1t seems that a couple of young men-
hardly more than boys, were indulging i'll
a sham fight, and called each other hard
names-in fun, when up jumped Cyrus
Fetter, leader of the SnOrtville band, and
knocked one of the embryo prize-fighters
down. He did it for the purpose of start
ing row, and, Judging from what hap
pened next, he can start a fight a great
deal better than he can start band.
In less time than it takes to write it
there were ten or dozen men fighting in
the bar-rOom and, as plenty of others
sailed in, it seemed as if everybody was
fighting. The women spluttered and
swore in Dutch the young ladies, bless
'em, screamed, but did not faint-they
don't know hOw-and all who were not
desirous of becoming involved in the muss
were compelled to retreat to a point a
quarter of mile above the hotel. They
tore off boards from the fence and used
them with disastrous effect. Jerry Fetter
broke John Boyer's nose with a fence rail.
John fled and Fetter fired four shots after
him, none striking him, however. This
worthy also held cooked revolver against
the face of John Rhoads and threatened
his life. Mr.. John Keener, of Clay, and
Levan Ulrich, the musicians, were count
ing the money taken in. when Keener was
floored by blow with stool. He had
not spoken to the mob, but they didn't
give him time to demonstrate, and several
more unfortunates, unconscious and bleed
ing, fell on top of him. Twas the most
desperate fight that ever took place in the
" HILL" Several persons are injured Sc
riously if not fatally, and numerous COM
plicated cross action law suits will follow.
