The Mutt Trial.

UNloNTowN, Pa, Dec. 5.-The morn
ing session Of court was entirely occupied
in the examination of jurors summoned
to serve in the Mutt case. The panel en-
braces eighty jurors. Fifty have been ex-
humber.
The attorney for the prisoner stated
this morning that they would base the
defcnS entirely upon the theory of emo
tional !glsanity. They hayc summoned a
large number of witnesses to prove that
the prisoner had been peculiar from in
fancy and that lie was lmbued with an
uncomfortable desire to take life. The
trial promises to be long drawn out and
exciting.
In the afternoon session of court the
panel of jurors was exhausted and only
three sworn, and in despair the counsel
for Mutt moved for change of venue.
This was granted aud the case ordered to
be certified to the courts of Allegheny
county.
The intention is to secure as speedy a
trial as possible, and it is thought that ar
rangcments will be made to begin in two
or three weeks. The change is consider
ed by Mutt and his friends as greatly in
his favor. If possible the opinion that
the killing of Dukes was justlfablc is
more pronounced in Pittsburg than in
Fayejte AT Nutt's home Dukes has
many friends, especially among certain
class of politicians. In Allegheny cou1-
ly no political feeling has entered the
case and verdict Of acquittal is cent?
dently predicted.

Dukes that he and the jury that acquitted
him were hung IN ef1igy ON the streets Of
Uniontown, Pa, the night after the con-
cluslon Of the trial, and Dukes and the
jury had to seek seclusion to avoid vio-
lence at the hands of the excited and en-
ragged people. The excitement quieted
down in few days and Dukes, in def
ance of the execration IN which he was
held by the people, opened his law office
ana engaged in business as before. In
going about town he nee essari]y came in
contact with young Mutt, who, brooding
over the murder of his father and goaded
by the presence of the murderer, few
months ago met and shot Dukes dead at
the door of the postoftice in that place.
Ae made no attempt to escape but quiet
ly submitted to arrest and has eyer since
been in Jail, the effort to secure his re-
lease on bail by habeas corpus having
failed. Money to secure the ablest coun-
sci for his defense was poured in from all
over the country in addition to anabund-
ance Immediately contributed by the
friends of the boys murdered father.
Hon. Dan. w. Voorhees,, the illustrious
advocate and orator of Indiana, now ap-
pears as leading counsel for the defense.
The matchless eloquencc Of the "tall syc-
amorc of the Wabash" has for years been
the envy and admiration of all who as
pire to the grand and sublime, and with
the subject he now has in hand his plea
may reasonably be expected to be the
grandest effort of his life. Taking the
cold facts of the law and the evidence as
given to the public through the reports
st the time, the boy IS in a close place,
and nothing but sentimental feeling
which overpowers law and evidence can
acquit him. But to convict the boy Of
any crime would as greatly outrage pop
ular sentiment as did the acquittal of
Dukes.

The presidents message IS not re-
markable document IN any particular. 1t
may be called rather tame, and but for
its reference to, and incorporation of, de-
parlmental reports would contain but lit
tie Of interest to the public. 1t merely
cussing them IN vigorous manner. lis
suggestions are rather timid as if the eX-
ecutivc would be satisfied whet :er they
were accepted or rejected. The fact that
the political majority of the house, which
holds the purse strings of the govern
ment, IS largely against hum perhaps had
considerable influence to temper the en-
thusiasm he may have had upon any sub
ject, but he hardly added anything to his
ndlng before the American people by
surrendering before battle was COM
menced. There are very few men above
the ordinary in capacity who could not
under similar surroundings produce q
document of equal ability.
He calls attention to the well known
conflicts between railroad corporations
and the people, but suggests no plan for
remedying the oppression imposed upon
the people by these giant combinations,
only that it should be done so far as con-
stitutlonal authority will permit congress
to interpose.
He handles the tariff question with
long tonss and in way Which will not
give the manufacturing nabobs any seri-
cerned, but will rather encourage them
to believe that he will veto any measure
that would reduce their profits by reduc-
ing the tariff which enables them to hold
up prices against foreign competition. -
The Utah question is about the only
one upon which he takes decided stand,
and while his position is a commeudable
one, in view OF his non-committal man.
ner of dealing with other questions it
suggests the suspicion that his aggressive
recommendations on this was on account
or its having no defenders where people
vote for president and members of con-
gress.
There IS no suggestion or recomnenda-
ton in the message where his political
enemies can make strong point against
him and none where his friends can make
one for him. 1t is sort of luke-warm,
go-between document that will soon be
forgotten by both.

CARRINGTON ITEMS.
(From Darlington News, Nov. 80.

Ossian A. Lamoreaux, of Minneapolis,
and Miss Florence NJ. Stedman, of Tom
linson, were married at Darlington Tues
day evening.
Archibald L. Holt and Miss Ida J.
Dearborn were married at the residence
of the brides father, in Darlington on
Wednesday.
Thanksgiving service was held IN the
school house yesterday, Rev. w. q. Fow-
Ter conducting it.
Miss Mary Harris, sister Of Mr.. David
Harris, fell from ladder few days ago
at Sykcston and dislocated her shoulders.
Sunday last was very severe day, ow-
ing to the strong cold northwest wind
which prevailed all day. During Sunday
night the thermometer went down to
twenty below zero.
A special meeting of the county COM
missioncrs is ordered for Wednesday, 5th
inst. No meeting was held on the 2lst
owing to unavoidable circumstances.
The storm on Sunday kept almost
everybody in doors. At church the con-
gregation was conspicuous through its
absence, numbering eight only. Two
ladies were brave enough to venture out.
The trustees have engaged as first
teacher for our new school, Mrs. Nit
chell. The trustees are having desks,
benches, etc., put IN place, and expect to
have school started next week.
The grand new Kirkwood was last
night the scene of very pleasant, happy
gathering, convened to do honor to its
formal opening While there was, as a
matter of course, a representative COM
pany of our own Darlington people,
there were very welcome additions to the
throng from New Rockfock, Melville,
Jamestown. and other places. No doubt
similar engagements and late Thahksgiv.
ing dinners and family gatherings in
jamestown prevented the presence of
many who would otherwise have come
up from the Stutsman capital, where
Darlington and the Kirkwood have SO
many friends and we'll -wlshers. The
spacious hall was occupied until late
hour this morning by the dancers, who
seemed never TO grow weary until they
were alarmed by quick coming signs Of
day. The supper was elegant and boun-
tiful and all hat could be desired In at
tractiveness and abundance, and it is
needless to say that it was worthy Of the
Kirkwood management.

THE Chicago Journal opens presidcn-
tial boom for Hon. John A. Logan, of IL
llnois. There are few public men who
have been so persistently and vindictiyely
assalled as Logan, but he has met his ad-
versaries face to face and, like the illus
trlous chief of the Mingoes of the same
name, he never turned on his heel for
any foe. There IS magnetism in his
presence and fascination in his name
that has made his fame worldwide. As
the soldier and the legislator. the patriot
and the statesman, the adversary and the
friend, he has commanded the respect and
admiration of the American people from
ocean to ocean. BY his own indomltable
energy and native talent he rose from an
hum Die and obscure station down in the
section of southern Illinois called
egypt" and has step by step worked
his way to the front rank of American
craftsmanship. Abandoning the demo-
cratic party, with which he had before
been identified, IN 1861 he arose out of
that hot bed of secession sympathizers
and went to the battle field in defense of
his government, where he made record
of which he may ever well feel proud.
This change of political party afiillation
called down upon him the lmplacable
hatred of his old democratic associates
who have pursued him ever since with a
malevolence that can only be defined by
the term vengeance, and every obstacle
has been thrown in his way to retard his
self-elcvatlon. Not only has this been
done by his political antagonists, but
jealous members of the republican party
have covertly conspired to pluck his lau-
rels of political distinction. But amid
all these unfavorable circumsta ncesl and
over all obstacles he has prevailed and is
deserving the more honor and glory
for it.
Another salutary fact connected with
the public life OF John A. Logan Is that
no taint of corruption attaches to his
name, but all efforts to entangle HIM in
the meshes of ofpeculation and the numer-
Gus frauds upon the government that
have stranded so many, have resulted in
his triumphant vindlcation, and he stands
to-day before the American people with
a record unsullied and unassailable.
Logan is an intellectual giant, man of
comprehensive views of the sphere and
spirit of our governLe ent, of strong con-
yictions and fearless in their expression,
who would do honor to the highest posi-
tien in the gift of the greatest and grand.
est nation among men.

WHEN the news came that O'Donuell
had been found guilty of murder in slay-
ing Carey the informer and the sentence
of death had Teen pronounced upon hin.
there was a general feeling Of pity. even
though the law and the evidence would
fully justify both the verdict of the jury
and the sentence of the court. The pub
lie execration of the man Of whom he rid
the world was SO deep that it cast him
outside the pale Of the protection of law
and rlvllization. Carey was self con-
fessed murderer, as guilty as those who
expiated their crime upon the scaffold
through his treachery. BY the detesta-
tion this cowardly act to save himself at
the sacrifice of his associates brought
down upon him from all mankind he
was made wanderer and vagabond
upon the face of the earth, and to shield
himself from the vengeance his perfdy
provoked he disguised his identity and
sought the refuge of stranger in
strange land. 2"
These circumstances aroused almost
universal sympathy for O'Donnell, and
his department during the course Of the
trial retained If it did not increase the
sympathy. But how little thing will
turn the tide of popular feeling. The
silent avengcr, the meek and tractable
prisoner, when the sentence Of tie law
had been pronounced against him and
he was about to be removed from the
court room became bolstcrous and bias
phemous ruffian, cursing his .prosecu-
tors and the British people and govern
ment, IN moment freezing and disgust
ing the feeling of his friends and sym
pathy of his prosecutors, from which lie
will never recover. When the hour of
his death by the law comes 1t will be con-
templated by the people of the world
with a widely different feeling from that
which, but for this little incident, might;
have been, and the lesson it teaches IS so
obvious that to mention it explicitly
would greatly break its force:
