1t has become known that Thomas 4. Pugh,
Of Cincinnati, who was murdered by the
Apache Indians, was horribly tortured before
being put to death. He was iendishly emas-
culated, and then made to travel with them
until too weak to go further, meantime they
urging him on by mutilating his body. They
then finally shot him to death. The Indians
who did this are considered "good" Indians,
and are supported by the Government. Only
q few weeks prior to the butchery of Pugh,
these same good Indians captured an emigrant
train, among whom there were six women.
The men were murdered, and their wagons
burned. The women were all fiendishly out
ragged, after which they (these good Indians)
hung them up by the heels, and then securing
the red-hot lynch pins from the ashes Of the
wagons'they had burned, applied them to the
suspended victims in manner too disgusting
to mention. The agony they suffered can
never be known. The United States Govern
ment might make q mistake Of one or two
Indians II she were to exterminate the whole
Apache Nation, but it is thought by some-.very
humane people that It is time that the Govern
ment should vary its mistakes by making the
one proposed.

A Young LadY's Strategy.

A level-headad young woman in Mon
treal found her way out of dilemma
the other day, and the example ought to
be of profit to the young and fair else
where. She had aroused an uncontrolla-
BILE passion in the breast of young law
yer, whom, however, she did not care to
wed. He grew gloomy and morose, took
a trip to Europe, returned to Montreal,
fell into lax ways and was going gener-
ally to the dogs. Meeting the young lady
on the street one day she resumed the
old acquaintance with warmth. Encour-
aged by the smiling reception, the young
man suggested drive. This being re-
fused he proposed walk instead. To
this the lady consented. They walked
far, he telling the story of his trip, to
which she listened with interest. Fl
nally arriving in the limits of Mount
Royal Park, where there was no pcssi-
bility of interference, the lover drew q
pistol, grimly informing the astonished
girl that unless she consented to go at
once with him to minister and get mar
ried he would blow her brains out and
then his own. She seems to have been
quite equal to the emergency. Assent
ing to visit the minister they set out at
once and on arriving the clever girl
placed herself under the minister's pro-
lection and the lover retired, embittered
and vowing destruction upon himself for
trusting woman's word even at the al
tar.

The Need of the Hour.

The Chicago Tribune has telegraphed
it the following appalling statements
from Washington
"Could everything be laid bare relat-
ing to appointments in Washington, to
say nothing of what exists elsewhere,
the unsuspecting portion of the people
would be appalled,. Not only is there
incompetence in the public service, but
immortality and vice. What would sim
minded people probably say were
they told that the wages OF sin are
borne on the pay-rolls of the depart
ments that appointments are made and
persons kept in Office on grounds that
would put to alame the face OF virtue
and shock every true moral sentiment?
Not only do these things exist, but to
an extent that few outside of Washing
ton suspect. 1t is difficult to describe
the real state of the case. The ramifica-
tions of these things are SO extensive
that it would be difficult to say with any
certainty where they do not reach.
They permeate the entire public service
in Washington. The readers that would
not be shocked at recital of even part
of the truth are few indeed. The truth
cannot be told"
There is but one remedy, and that is
the complete sweeping from Office of the
party that twenty years possession OF
irresponsible power has soddened
through and through with corruption
and moral filth Is this overdrawn ?
Read the reports of the star route ex-
posure; read what the Republican cor
respondent of q Republican journal says,
as reproduced above =" The wages of
sin are borne on the pay-rolls of the de-
partments |" 1t is something to know
that this infamous party was swept from
place once, and that it would never have
held up its head again had not nest OF
Louisiana murderers been enabled to
cheat the ballot box for it.

Governor Plaisted Rises Up.

While the cats away Maine, which has
been quiet for. q time, now contributes
one bubble to the by no means boiling
cauldron of summer politics. 1t seems
like recalling ancient history to remind
the reader that a Democratic. Governor
presides over Blaine's stalwart State.
The fact would have been forgotten but
for breezy little squabble between the
Governor and his stalwart Council.
These robust partisans, conceiving them
selves the real guardians of popular in
terests, have resolutely refused to con-
firm the Governors nominations, even
though Plaisted conceded so far to exist
ing conditions as to name only Republi-
cans for office. The difference took an
acute form some time ago, when one of
the Council arose in the solemnity of the
session and denounced the Executive in
unmeasured terms. He prevailed upon
his fellow-partisans to reject renomina-
ton of Republican office-holder and
gave the Governor to understand that
he wasn't of much account anyhow.
Thereupon Plaisted calmly adjourned

ment, and as it can not be reconvened
without his summons, the astute Magis.

Rev. Edward Cowley claims to be an injured
man. According to the testimony Of a dozen
or more small children, whose little bodies
were emaciated, he almost starved them to
death and frequently beat them cruelty The
Court, on the testimony of these children, put
the Reverend gentleman in the Penitentiary.
He was sentenced upon only one indictment,
on which he was found guilty, and number of
indictments were left over. He served his time
in prison, was released, and then presented
himself to his brother ministers for yindcation.
They tried Mr.. Oowley in their own manner,
and theresult was, pronounced him persecuted
and wronged man. They further authorized
him to preach the Gospel. The Rev. Edward
Cowley now wants money to publish the testi-
mony taken before the Epispcopsl Church
and to also prosecute the little orphans
whose testimony sent him to Penitentiary,
on the charge Of perjury. 1t seems that
not being satisfied with his cruelty in the
past towards those little ones, whom he
was starving In order to come into possession
of %, 900, but now to set himself right before
the world, would have them all committed to
prison life on the charge Of perjury. If these
children were grown men and women, and cap
able of forming conspiracy, Mr.. Cowley
might be regarded as prosecuted Christian,
but many Of them are almost infants and could
not have knowledge sufficient to successfully
conspire to the ruination of an intelligent
Christian man. And in addition to their testi-
mony, their bodies, emaciated for want OF
proper nourishment, and bruised from cruel
beating, told palmer than words the manner OF
man in whose care they had been. We fear
that, although Mr.. Cowley has set himself
right before his brother ministers, there are
lots of sinners who will always believe that he
did not treat those children exactly right.

was in Titusville, Pa, and was on the

who arrested me did SO upon the

Their Last Resort.

Notwithstanding the promise OF both
Democrats and Republicans in Ohio that
they would fight the State fight this year
on. home questions and not mix them
selves up in national affairs, the tariff
question has already forced itself into
prominence in the campaign, and the
Republican papers have begun an as
sault on Bookwalter on occount OF his
position on this issue. The Democratic
platform on this point is very consldera-
tive, advocating protection to the Amer
lean workingman, but war on oppressive
monopolies. The Republicans are una
BILE to say anything against this, and try
to get around it by declaring that Book
walter, Notwithstanding the platform, Is a
free-trader. This is scarcely likely, how
ever, to lose him the votes of the factory
hands.-INea0 Orleans Democrat.

The Dangerous Disease.

"crank" invasion of the capital. It
saws "Male cranks and female cranks,
white cranks and black cranks, cranks
from the east and cranks from the west,
continue to arrive in the city and poster
the police and the officials from morning
till night" The fact OF the matter Is, the
whole Republican party is little loony
on the subject Of office. They have
gathered in the spoils SO long and SO
openly and fraudlently that they have
become lot of cranks, at once bold and
dangerous. The only sure cure Is the
defeat of the party-an event that will
occur in 1884 as sure as the world stands.
