What We License.

FATAL Extraordinarily the
notorious Jimmy Lawless termin-
ated a debauch by dangerously
shooting John Fitzpatrick, mi
ner at Boyd's Coal works. Law
less being Il terror to his fellow
miners, they were afraid to arrest
him but notified Sheriff Hilles
and Deputy Sedwick, who went
over, and after running him sever
al miles through the woods and
hollows, and night coming on, they
were compelled to give up the
chase. Whether he has since been
captured we are not advised.
ANOTHER VIcTIM.-Section No.
2 of freight train No. 10, going
East last Saturday night, at il 40
ran over and instantly killed DIR.
J. c. Sale, prominent physician
of Paint Creek, at that place. He
had been down to Brownstown,
while there imbibed too freely and
after returning home, went to his
office, and being too intoxicated to
get in, laid down on the railroad
track, which was directly in front
of his office and met with the above
named fate. His body was fright
fully mangled, being unrecogniz-
able. Charleston Call.

The Independent Voter.

The independent voter is giving
the boss politician no little trouble.
He can't get along without his
vote and can't manage him as he
wishes if he stays. And he seems
to have come to stay. 1t has be-
come painfully manifest that he is
going to vote as he pleases and will
no longer cover under the party
lash. Petty local politicians who
aspire to be bosses may loudly pro-
test that voter shall have no voice
in party councils or conventions,
unless he is pledged to support all
its nominees, but the Independent
voter no longer fears their threat
enings.
What are political parties? Who
are the managers, and for whom do
the organizations exist? Are they
voluntary associations or are they
close corporations owned and con-
trolled by boss board of directors?
If to be Democrat or Republican
is to surrender all freedom of choice
and action, and bind oneself down
to follow blindly the lead of a
majority, be it real or only appar-
ent, regardless Of principle or indi-
vidual preference,-if party organ
ization is to be compact bound
with iron letters, forged and riveted
by caucusses and rings, to be meek
ly worn and endured so long as it is
within the power of a mustered and
manipulated majority in conyen-
ton assembled to impose them,
then the sooner all party fealty is
forever renowned, the better will it
be for the country.
And if the late elections in Ohio
and West Virginia indicate any
thing, they clearly show that the
people are tired of boss-ism, and
want some principle to stand on
and vote upon, instead of olindly
following offce-seekers. 1t was not
so much 'lack of organization"
that brought disaster, as it was that
the honest, upright citizen had in
dependence enough either to vote
against his party nominees, or else
to stay at home. He may not be
well "organized," but he has some
principles that he not only be-
lieves in, but wants to endorse
when he votes. And he has deci
ded that if the bosses can afford to
disregard his principles when they
dictate nominations, he can afford
to stay at home and take care Of his
crops on election day.

1t would have been bette r for the
Freeman, and for the canse it advo-
Gates, had the editor kept his Glow
en- loot hid a while longer.-Grafton
Eagle.
Thus closeth a severe dissertation
by the Eagle, taking as its text a
harmless paragraph from the Free
man, referring to the divided
councils in the Second District,
written when Mr.. Mason's election
was announced.
We are surprised that the Eagle
or any other bird should try to
mlsconstrue our remarks into any
dlsrespect to either of the distin-
gulshed gentlemen mentioned,
Messrs Hoge, Lucas and Wilson,
surely none was expressed or in
tended. The chit" complained of,
II there was any, was at the divided
councils of the party, and not the
candidates. We are sorry the Eagle
was hurt by the innocent, random
shot.

To Cane Growers.

knowing that there are many far
mers in this vicinity who desire to
raise amber cane next summer, but
are deferred from attempting it, on
account of a fear of failure, 1 volun-
teer the following information:
The first requisite is to have good
southern grown seed. 1t will not do
to plant more than twice from cane
seed grown in this latitude, as it de-
terioates in quality and quantity very
rapidly. In order to obviate this diff
ficulty, l have sent to Kansas for seed,
and will be able to supply anyone who
may wish it at reasonable rates. Or
der early, as l may not have supply
on hand when planting time comes.
Donot plant on heavily MANFRED
ground, but ON clean land, enriching
your cane land with ashes or lime.
Plant about three and one-half feet
apart, and about three.fourths of an
inch deep.
Harrow your cane ground, after
planting as soon as the weeds appear,
and continue to harrow until the cane
is four or five inches high.
The drag teeth should be placed in
the frame so as to slant backwards for
this work.
If the above directions are follow
ed, there is no reason why any far
mer should fail to get a good crop of
cane.

March 9Th, 1882, Mrs. G. r. Griffin, aged
So years.
The deceased was a daughter of Joseph
Fuller, Jr, and was the oldest OF twelve chill
dren. In early lite her parents settled IN
Northern Ohio, where they still reside, be-
ing now over so years of age. Her grand
father is well remembered by the children
OF this aged couple, and the stories of his
struggles as soldier in the war OF the Reyo-
luton as he recounted them are among their
choicest memories. In Jan. 1862, Clarissa
Caroline Fuller, was married to her present
bereaved companion, Richard Griffin, and OF
this union three children were born, only
one now living. During residence OF a
plumber Of years in this locality, she has ever
been known as one of those quiet, inotfen-
sive women, who in attending strictly to the
affairs of her household, ruled with wlsdom
love, and success. Her sphere of activity,
reached not beyond this; but in the final adj
iustment of human affairs such a sphere
must be uncomparably superior to one that,
though exceedingly large, is at the expense
of the heme. Her sufferings were severe, but
no mur1ner or complaint passd her lips
She died surrounded by friends, and the
large attendance at the funeral was sfgnih-
cant evidence Of the esteem in which she
was held No greater euology can be given
any one than this, and it is not too much to
say of her. s'She tried to train her children
