Results OF a Mock Marriage.

RITCHIE G. H.. w. Va, July IA.
The celebrated mock marriage case
of Ritchie county was concluded yes
terday, by court sentencing the pris-
oners. They were undoubtedly saw
ed from nob violenne Mi~~.- .------.
Hanover is beautiful young girl OF
20 years, daughter of a respectable
farmer who lives near Richie court
house, and her reputation is beyond
reproach. About a year ago two
brothers named Clayton endangered
at different times to accomplish her
ruin and failed signally.
They finally conceived a vile
scheme by which to attain their pur-
pose. The younger brother was sue
cessful in winning the affections of
Miss Hanover, and secured the prom
Use of a private marriage. One night
the couple started for a carriage drive
and the younger Clayton induced the
young lady to go out of the way to a
point and there they met the elder
Clayton disguised as a minister. The
marriage services were performed.
The young couple settled down in
the mountains. After four weeks the
young lady was informed that she
had been duped and returned home
and told pitiful story. Excitement
ran high and violent threats were
made against the brothers. The
trial developed much unfit for publ
cation and was attended by large
crowds. Both brothers were found
guilty and sentenced. the younger
one to three years in the penitentiary
and the other one was fined $500,

1T to be the duty of Congress to adopt
such legislation as will insure the full
redemption of the trade dollars and
conversion into other coin for circu-

the practice of foreign government in

John Paul Logan, of st. Paul,
Minn., has the following card in the
Chicago Times of last week:

enterprising Southern mob who will
change the programme for once and
give a white murderer piece of rope.

will be paid spot cash. at the First

Elections on the behavior of the Gar

yaporings Ofdemagogues who declare
that republics are ungrateful. But
some old miser will ask when is this
business to end. We say never. So
long as loving hearts shall strew
sweet flowers upon the graves Of
dead heroes, the living, manned,
crippled and disabled soldiers will be
pensioned out of the nations treas
ury. There are still 1,000.469 living
soldiers who have never applied for a
pension. Many of these as the years
go by will find themselves disabled
from wounds and privations in the
camp. There are still S6,803 pension
able relatives of deceased soldiers who
haye never filed any claims. Let all
who are entitled make application,
and if Uncle Sam is not rich enough
to give them all farm he is not poor
enough to disregard the claim of the
noble heroes who at country's call
came in numbers like the leaves of
the forest, to die if necessary that the
Union might live.

Newspapers.

The entire value of a good newspa-
per is rarely estimated by the average
reader. One looks upon it simply as
the chronicle of passing events. An
other looks upon it as the exponent
or defender of some cherished idea,
with which he is in sympathy. The
newspaper is more than this, it is
conductive to morality, honesty and
the general welfare of the communi.
ty in which it is issued. Many little
peccadillos are nipped in the bud by
the wholesome dread of exposure
through the newspaper. Men are
more circumspect when they know
that the argus eye of the reporter or
local editor is upon them. Thieves
dread and hate the newspapers, be-
cause all their schemes and modus
opera1di are laid bare before the pub
lie eye. The newspaper is looked
upon by the criminal classes of the
community as the lighthouse is view
ed by the wrecker, while it continues
to illuminate, their occupation is
jeopardized.
There are but three classes of men
in every community, the retrograde,
the stationary, and the progressive.
The two former have little or no re.
gard for the newspaper or it's infu-
ence, and read it simply to find out
what is going on" but who could
fold their arms and see it die with
the utmost complacency, leaying the
progressive portion of the commune
ty as the only real sufferers. The
retrograde and stationary class of
every s. ePm G1.g are ytehe
truthfully said: "Of all mortals a
critic is the silliest for by inuring
himself to examine all things. wheth-
er they are of consequence or not, he
never looks upon anything but with
a design of passing sentence upon it,"
Edwin Forest once compared critic
to puppy "who barked at every
thing he could not understand"

Ex-Governor Kirkwood has openly

AS Mr.. Kirkwood has a large follow
ing and is man of considerable char

to defeat his party.
Democratic leaders throughout the
country are gradually coming to the
conclusion that the tariff had better
be let alone for some time. and that
if it be made an issue in 1884, they
will surely go down. For this reason
Randall's chances for the Speaker
ship may be almost regarded as a
certainty.

1t is now about ten years since the
trade dollar was issued. 1t was the
intention to confine the coin to use in
China and Japan, but in the course
of monetary events they came into
quite general circulation in this coun
try.
The trade dollar was not only made
as money, but made legal tender to
the extent of S. by the law authoriz-
ing its coinage. 1t remained so and
passed current like any other silver
coin until three years after when the
Democrats came into power in the
House of Representatives.
In 1876 Congress demonetized the
trade dollar, or deprived it of it's legal
tender value, But that was the act
of Democratic Congress, and it was
the act of Democrats. In May, 1876,
Samuel j. Randall, the leading DEM
Ocratic candidate for Speaker of the
next House of Representatives, in
PRODUCED bill repeating the legal ten
der quality of this coin, in these
words:
THAT the trade dollar shall not
hereafter be legal tender"
On the 10th of June, 1876, S. S. Cox,
of New York, Chairman of the Com.
mittee on Banking and Currency,
and one of the leading lights of the
Democratic party in the House, re-
ported the bill to the House, urging
its adoption, and it a0aS passed by

The Duty of Maryland Republicans.

The New York Tribune, noticing
the success of the German faction in
the recent Democratic fight in Balti-
more, says:
"The family fight in the Maryland
Democracy is said to be over and the
German faction has come out victori-
Gus. The attempt of the Young DEM
ocrats to act as peacemakers appears
to have ended in a ludicrous failure.
They simply furnished a little amuse-
ment for the old-liners who took pos
session of the movement and ran it to
suit themselves. So the Democratic
party will probably go into the CAM
paign weakened and demoralized by
the feuds that have ragged in it's ranks
for some years past. The question
now is whether the Republicans are
wise enough and energetic enough to
take advantage of thesituation They
havean opportunity this year, wheth-
er they elect their ticket or not, to
place the party in an advantageous
position from which it can expect to
gain future victories. Republicans in

Charleston NeaCS and Courier I DEM:
If the principles of the Democratic
party are worth anything at all they
are worth fighting for. If they are
not worth fighting for, then there is
no good reason why the party should
continue to exist. In order to de-
serve the support of its members and
the respect of the public it must have
a consistent creed-a creed which,
while capable of conforming itself to
changed conditions, remains in essen
tials the same. The Democratic par
ty is historically devoted to free trade,
that is. tariff for revenue only, and
not for protection an honest cur
rency of gold and silver, economy in
public affairs. reform in the admin
istration of public affairs, and a strict
construction of the constitution.

Baltimore Live Stock Market.
[From Baltimore American. !

MONDAY, July Is, 1888.
The quotations given are those of
the retail market, except where other
wise stated.
PRICES OF BEEF CATTLE AT THE
MARKET TODAY.
Very best on sale to-day 5E(064
cts 4; that generally rated first quality,
4495$ cents; medium or good fair
quality, 4(045 cents !; ordinary thin
steers, oxen and cows. 3(934 cents;
extreme range of prices, 3064 cents
Most of the sales were from 43(05a.
REMARKS ON BEEF CATTLE.
The arrival of Cattle during the
week amounted to 1885 head, against
1880 last week and 2,347 head the cor
responding week of last year, and the
sales were ,152 head, against ,13S last
week, and ,464 head the correspond
ing week of last year.
The offerings on the Hill this week
were fully equal to a rather slow de-
mand, and prices were about sc. off
for the tops, which were as good as
last week, and which, though not as
numerous as last week, were fully
equal to the very limited demand.
Other grades were in some instances
&c. lower than last week. Much the
larger part of the offerings were good,
medium and top Cattle, common be-
ing very scarce. Prices ranged from
&c. to 81. the latter for few selec-
tions, nearly all the sales being rec
orded from Al to sac.
THE SWINE MARKET,
The offerings this week keep up in
quality fully equal to last weeks,
being too heavy for the general re-
quirements, as lighter Hogs, those
weighing $50 to 200 lbs. gross, are
more acceptable than the heavier
ones, which constitute the bulk of the
receipts. Prices are off from last
week, the demand being moderate,
only at the decline. We quote at IT
(g84c., with most sales from 7a(084.
The corresponding week last year
prices ranged from 1030113c., with
few extra at the latter price.
THE SHEEP MARKET.
The receipts of Sheep have been
very light during the past week,
numbering scarcely fourth as many
as the Lambs. Trade for Sheep has
been fair on the part of our home
butchers, and for Lambs only moder-
ate, there beigg no outside demand
FOR either. Good stock Sheep are in
demand, and the offerings limited.
we quote Sheep at 34@5ic., Lambs
5(963c,, and stock Sheep at 3IC14ic.
Prices of Sheep this time last year
8(@5c., and Lambs 496ic.

Death of Tom Thumb.

MIDDLEBoRo. MASS, July 49,
Chas. Haywood Stratton, better
known to the public as Gen. Tom
Thumb, died at his residence here at
$3.50 O'Clock this morning, ofapoplexy.
He has been slightly indisposed for
a few days, but nothing serious was
anticipated. The deceased was born
in Bridgeport, Conn.,, January 4, 1888,
and was consequently As years old.
At the age of IA he entered the SER
vice of P. L. Barnum, and has been
before the public eyer since. He
leaves widow, who has been on the
stage with him since their marriage,
in 1868. She was the pretty and con-
spicuously petite Layinia Warren.
sister of the equally pretty and still
smaller Minnie Warren, to VIII I'M
Commodore Mutt paid devoted atten-

afterwards married. Tom Thumbs
wedding, in Grace Church, New

OUR NEW YORK LETTER.
from our Regular Correspondence
NEW YORK, July 18th, 1888.

NEW YORK, July 18th, 1888.
Another Democratic candidate for
the Presidency looms up in Ex-Sen-
ator Wallace of Pennsylvania. "On
what does he base his claims ?n I
asked of leading Republican of that
State. Pm sure l don't know, ex-
cept on the ground that he has re.
built his fortune, which was in a
pretty bad state when he left the
Senate and is now worth about three
millions. OF course if thrift is an es.
sential quality for a candidate he may
get the nomination, but 1 think that
Wallace is too dead as politician to
make much of stir.
The successful working of the Scott
liquor law In Ohio is aiding the Re-
publican campaign in that State con-
siderably. The Democrats on the
contrary are making but poor prog
res5. There is too much dissatisfac-
ton among their ranks, and too much
personal i'll feeling among the leaders.
Yet they are spending a great deal OF
money in that cause.
There are unfortunate discussions
among Iowa Republicans which may
