will thank you tor corner In the
Sentinel aud Republican to express my
disapprovai of the manner in which
the christian church was compromis
ed by some OF its own members IN
MiifIntown last week.
The whole population OF Juniata
have learned through the newspapers
that glorious revival meeting has
been carried ON in the four churches
in the place. 1t IL veil known
TACT that there have beeL between
one and two hundred ina,irers for

The result TO follow Ihs meetings
seemed most promising. In Gay,
es it were, the glorious prospect Is
clouded, and the most adverse crit
lcIsm awakened by the action OF
churcn members.

A horrible mining accident occur
red at q mine called the Diamond,
in Grundy county, Illinois, On last
Saturday, which engulfed from fifty
to seventy fUe men! 1t was caused
by the caving in of the earth around
the shaft. Nearly all of the i'll fated
miners were married men aud had
families living in and around the lit
tie village of Diamond. 1t will re
quire several days before they can
be reached, and there is no hope that
any of the imprisoned men will es-
cape alive.

The frightful loss of life in the
anthracite coal mines of P~ennsylva-
MIA, where 800 persons lost their
lives and more than q thousand were
manned last year, seems to have led
to q determination that the Legisla-
ture of that State shall do something
to protect the miners lives. After
the frightful disaster at the Avondale
mine in 1859, caused by the burn
ing of a breaker, the Legislature OBJ
liged mine owners to construct open
ings through which the miners could
escape in case the main shaft was
INSTRUCTED. Since then, it is said.
the mines have been pushed so rap
idly in every direction that the open-
ings intended to serve as means of
escape have been left far in the rear.
and in many cases have become an
additional source of danger rather
than a means of safety. Legislation
is called for which will remedy this
state of things.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer saws
a bill OF more Importance to farmers
and to the people Of the state gener
ally than any that is likely to be
evolved on the liquor question, is
now pending in the Senate. It was
framed by Durbin Ward, introduced
by Senator Wilson and relates to
planting trees. If it becomes a law
it will be a great benefit to the state
hereafter. It provides that owners
of land who plant trees along the
highways running through their
lands shall be allowed u rebate of
dollar in their road tax, for each
four trees planted provided that this
abatement shall not exceed one half
of his road tax. 1t is further pro
vided that who over plants not less
ten acres Of forest trees, or more
than one hundred acres shall have
that amount of land free of taxes for
five years. The fourth Friday of
each April, shall be called "Arbor

Mrs. j. Ellen Foster, (no relation
of c. Foster, } addressed a large meet
ing in the hall of Representatives
last week, in favor of prohibition,
and strongly against license, tax or
local option. The women accom-
panying her had placed on the clerks
desk two large racks Of petitions
bearing about $4,000 signatures in
favor of prohibition. The address
was very strong and positive, and
occupied two hours in delivery. 1t
was an appeal mainly to the Repub-
lican party, because, she said, she
expected nothing from the Demo
cratic. She was frequently applaud
ed.

Maine seems inclined to follow the
examples of Iowa and Kansas relative
to prohibition. 1t is claimed that a
prohibitory liquor law has worked
well there for thirty years past, and
that it has been a success, reducing
drinking and consequent crime. 1t
ID true that the opponents of prohi-
bition say that this has not been the
case. The movement now to enact
q constitutional amendment would
seem to be an admission on the part
of temperance men that their law of
thirty years is not altogether a sue
cess.

The banks do not get as much
out of their government bonds de-
posted at Washington to secure cir
culation as they used to. In 1868
they had a balance in interest, after
paying their taxes, of $13,O GOO, 600:
in 1878 the balance was $40, 600, 600;
in 1882 it al $3,0OO,O 600! These
amounts are in round numbers. The
banking system has not expanded
with the growth of the country. The
capital taxed for state and private
banks has increased nearly 200 per
cent. since 1868, while the capital
invested in bonds for circulation has
increased only 200, OOO-less
than four per cent.

The bill of Mr.. Scott, passed by
the House, makes a change in the
hammer of making the annual exam
nation of County Commissioners
reports, by providing that the Pros
ecuting Attorney shall be eliminated
from the usual committee, and max
ing it the duty of the Common Pleas
Courts to appoint three citizens liv
ing in different parts of the county,
to such examining board. Wonder
what the Prosecuting Attorney of
Warren county has done to old Dr..
Scott, that he wants to deprive him
and all other Prosecuting Attorneys
OF the State, of this littlejob? Is he
a Democrat, Bro. Patriot?

The Washington correspondent of
the Hartford Courant says that the
five cent pieces are not held in esteem
at the Secret Service Division of the
Treasury. In size and weight and
one of its faces it much resembles q
five dollar gold piece, and il gilded
might be easily passed as such with
many people. Much swindling with
it is expected until the public be-
comes well accustomed to its an
pearance. 1t may become as much
of a nuisance as was the three cent
piece, which frequently passed as a
dime.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-02-22

The Democratic Party is the par
ty of the people, the party that in
reality and sincerity sympathizes
with downtrodden and suffering HUI
manity, the party that has been true
TO the Constitution and the funda-
mental doctrines of popular govern
ment. When in power it governed
with wisdom ana integrity. The
cause of the Democratic party is the
cause of human rights anbliberty.
1t will not be denied by the intelli-
gent reader that the public senti-
ment of a large majority of the bet
ter informed and educated conserva-
tive voting population of the United
States is fixedly Democratic in its
feelings and tendencies on all the
great leading questions of public pol
icy, such as the finances, tariffs, in
ternal Improvements, disposition of
the public domain and the reserved
rights of the States. The tenets of
the Declaration of independence and
of the Constitution Of the United
States, constitute the shield of Dem
ocracy. The great truths enunciat
ed in these sacred instruments are
the sheet-anchors of the country, and
the Democratic party has protected
and supported these against all as
saults of its enemies. Its supremacy
is gained and maintained by the &C
ton and love of the people, for whose
benefit individually and collectively
all its principles are established.
