would be well for us to secure the sweet little

THE FENIAN DYNAMITE PLOT.

Our readers remember the excitement in
England few months ago occasoned by the
discovery at Liverpool, in the hold Of vessel
from the United States, hid in barrels of ce.
ment, of several dlabolical machlnes--a sort OF
combination OF dynamite and clockwork-so
contrived that the machines could be placed
under bridge, building or other structure,
wound up, and IN a given time the dynamite
would explode and general devastation follow.
OF course the contrivaDce of the machines and
their shipment to England with the most hel.
fish purpose was charged upon the Fenans,
and now thorough investigation proves the
charge true,-exactly to the extent and in the
sense admitted by ODonovan Rosa at the
time 1t seems 1t was all scheme to scare
some money out of the British Government
Stories IN regard to the construction of infer.
nal machines by the Fenans in this country
for use in England were first so largely clrcu-
lated that the English government believed
them, and offered large reward tor their dis
covery before put into use. This was exactly
what the conspIrators wanted. The machines
-bunglingly constructed and really harmless
were made at the order of a Philadelphia
saloon keeper named Foye and turned over to

cement and placed ON board the vessel at Bos.

the British Consul at New York and for the

machines which led to their capture at Liver

view, amounting to $4,000. The whole bust

but when they went to lay their hands on Foye
it was found he had fled to parts unknown

ROCK RIVER CONFERENCE.

The session of the Rock River Conference o
the Methodist Church at Sycamore last week
was unusually interesting and exciting on &C
count, of course OF the trial of DR.. H. w.
Thomas tor heresy and matters growing out of
| it. The trial took place before Jury or COM
mittee OF fifteen selected by the conference,
and as DR.. Thomas objected to a number of
the jurors on account of prejudice the objec-
tionable members were removed and others
appointed in their place. Drs. Parkhurst and
Hatfield acted as prosecutors and DR.. Miller,
of the upper Iowa Conference, and Brothers
Artel, Bennett and Sheppard conducted the
defense. The charges were three, elaborated
In long string of specifications, but alleging
in substance that Dr. Thomas held heretical
views in denying the plenary inspiration of
the scriptures, and IN denying the doctrine of
atonement and the doctrine of everlasting pun
lshment as taught in the standards of the Meth
odist Church.
OF course we have not the space, nor is 1t
which lasted three days-from Saturday to
Tuesday. 1t is sufficient to say, that DR.. Thorn
as was adjudged guilty on all the counts and
sentenced to expulsion as minister and mem.
Der OF the Methodist Church.
This judgment, however, IS not final, unless
DR.. Thomas chooses to regard 1t as such. He
has an appeal to another court, called the "Ju-
dlcial Conference" composed Of seven men,
bers from each of the three annual confer
ences from which the appellant is expelled;
and to this tribunal Dr. Thomas has signititd
his purpose to appeal.
While the trial OF Dr. Thomas was proceed
Ing on Saturday, the doctor started counter
lrritant by way of presenting charges against
DR.. Parkhurst and demanding his trial. The
charges alleged lying and SANDER in clrculat-
ing that DR.. Thomas INDUCED in beer, theatri-
calls and cards. They were referred to com.
mittee of fifteen, who, after patient hearing,
on Wednesday evening returned verdict of
acqulttal.
Aside from the trials, the proceedings of the
conference possessed no special interest. The
usual appointments for the year were made,
among which we notice that Mr.. Arnold is re-
turned to Ottawa, T. II. Hazeltlne Is assigned
to Peru A. T. Horn to Marseilles, E. II. Beal
to Earlville, G. X. Bibbns to Freedom, &c.

other servant employed by them. Where such
direct responsibility exists by elections there
can be no nepotlsm, no Capitalization, no ia.
voritsm, no civil list, no families built up at
the public expense, and no life estates IN a
public Office, the most odious feature in the
governments of Europe
The plan Of Mr. Dean, now that the discus.
sion of the subject promises to lead to practi.
cal results, certainly deserves serious attention,
and once the people generally get hold of 1t,
they will not allow congress to ignore it.

OCTOBER ELECTIONS.

Tuesdays elections IN Ohio and Iowa show
no unexpected or striking results. Iowa was
carried by the republicans by their usual off
year majority, the only notable feature being
the meagerness of the greenback vote. That
party was really the only one that made an &C
tive canvass, yet It's vote of 10000 in the off
year ESQ is cut down to less than % 900 Con.
siderlng that the democrats in 1879 were beat
en- $4,000 against $4,000 now. notwithstanding
80 many grcenbackers have returned to the re-
publican fold, the Des MONIES State Leader
Is justified in saying that, under all the cir
cumstances. the result on Tuesday must be re-
gardeu as democratic victory.
In OHIO Foster Is reelected governor by 90,
900 majority, which, without explanation,
would look like disastrous democratic de-
feat 1t Is to be borne In mind, however, that
the feeling in regard to Garfield was still SO
fresh and deep that 1t had large influence in
lettering men from voting in way that bore
a sort of semblance of il'feeling towards him.
Besides, the great body of the democrats were
dissatisfied with Bookwalter, their candidate
for governor. He was a democrat of less than
years standing and in the canvass ignored
all the democratic committees and party lead
ers The vote on both sides was small, but
two democrats are believed to have staid at
home to one republican. Both houses of the
legislature, as well as governor, are carried by
the republicans.

WASHINGTON NOTES.

The democrats, as foreshadowed in our last,
torganized the senate by electing Democrat
president pro tenn, in spite of the efforts of the
republicans to the contrary. The latter we're
very anxious for a compromise, SO important
did they regard the temporary presidency Of
the senate involving as it did possible sue
cession to the executive chair, that they seem
ed to regard the death Of Arthur as an almost
imminent probability and were willing to give
the democrats not only all the other senate Off
ces, but half the committees, if they would let
the republicans have the president pro tenn.
But the democrats refused to treat on the sub.
ject, and having in caucus on Saturday even
ing nominated Bayard of Delaware and on the
meeting of the senate on Monday elected
him. Edmunds tried, before the election took
place, to have the new senators from New
York and Rhode Island sworn in by the oldest
member but the democrats stuck to the law
which made that the duty Of the president or
the senate, and elected Bayard of Delaware
such president. The vote stood "a to -, Davis
of Illinois, after voting in favor OF the Ed
munds motion, refusing to vote for Bayard or
Anthony whom the republicans voted for.
The republicans, however, were not satisfied
with the result, and on Wednesday. after the
three new republican senators had been sworn
In, held another caucus, and resolved to
GUST Bayard by electing David DAVIS president
of the senate. The movement, shameful as it
was, was carried out on Thursday, when Lo-
gan offered the caucus resolution for the cleo
ton of Davis in place Of Bayard and it was
carried by 80 TO "a. Davis and Bayard both
declined to vote. On beng escorted to the
