The Suspected Murder
erS of Hare Arrested.

On last Sunday a man named
Woody, of Nelsonville, was ar
rested by John T. Norris on sus
picion Of being implicated in the
murder of Hare. It's stated thai
he made a confession. showing q
conspiracy, and proposed to give
the names of all the parties i'm
plicated. His arrest created in.
tense excitement, and at the re-
quest of the Sheriff, the Lancas-
ter Militia were sent down and
put as guards around the Jail on
Monday.
Monday night, the Sheriff fear
ing violence to his prisoner, or an
attempt 10 liberate him. took him
to Lancaster and placed him in
the custody Of Sheriff S hoemaker
where he still remains.
On last Tuesday night. detec-
tive John I. Norris brought to
Logan and put in Jail four other
persons whose names we have
not learned, suspected of being
participants in the murder of
Hare. On Wednesday Norris ar
rested two more, on the same
charge.
1t is hoped by all good citizens
that the real criminals have been
detected, and that prompt and
speedy justice will be admins
tered.

Gov. HOadly in the Hook
ing Valley.

When the requisition was made
on the Governor by the Sheriff
for State troops to protect the
lives and the property Of citizen.
on the Monday Creek, Governor
Hoadly as the chief magistrate
of the State, the executive Officer
of the law, the commander in
chief of the military forces of the
State, before exercising that very
high authority and before ap-
plying that power of last resort,
the bayonet and the bullet, made
tour of inspection last Monday
through the Valley. He was ac-
companied by a number of news
paper men, and at Logan was
Joined by Judge Friesner and
DIR. Mansfield. He visited Straits
vile and thence went down the
Monday Greek, stopping at the
various mining points, reaching
Nelsenville in the evening:
Here he was met by crowd
of more than a thousand men.
whom he addressed and from
whom he received assurances of
orderly behavior.
The Governor told the miners
he depended upon them as good
citizens 10 preterve the peace, to
protect life and property and that
it they, the citizens failed to do
this, it was his duty as Governor
to exercise all his power, even
to the extent Of calling out every
able-bodied man in the State
He did not discuss the question
af difference between operator
and miner. He simply, plainly
and forcibly told the people tha,
he would exercise his power
when the local officers failed to
protect life and property, and it
made no difference to him
whether The life endangered or
he property in peril belonged to
Miner or Syndicate, Alien or Git
zen.
He made favorable impress.
'ion wherever he went and his
1isit will do more good in recon
'iling the opposing elements.and
about good feeling than
IN army OF militia.
We hope he will come down
oon again and that when he
loes come, peace and good feel
ng and prosperity, resultant
rom his good Influences, will
less the Valley and make his
'isit happy one.

Hurrah for HOadley.
No SOulIess British Sentiment
In his Heart
A GOVERNOR WITH A
HEART AS WE'LL AS A
MAN WITH A BEAD.

Within the last month the Re-
publican Syndicate, initiating the
English landlord system of evic'
ton that has made Ireland a
grave yard and which invites the
curse of heaven upon the perpe-
traitors of such inhuman outrage,
has been attempting the same
! scheme in the Hooking Valley.
| We read of families being thrown
upon the highway in Ireland,
and men, women and children
dying with no shelter but the
clouds, no roof but the skies, and
as our blood boiIs at these hor-
rors in Ireland, and we curse the
system of government that up
holds them, we are pointed to
the Monday Greek where a des-
potism more heartless than that
by which Victoria rules her realm
practices TRACES on hu-
manity the Czar Of Russia would
not dare attempt.
1t happens that a law made
without apprehension of its con
sequences exists which enables
the Syndicate to repeat in Ward
township the eviction system
of the Landlord in Ireland.
When at Nelsonville address
ing the people and answering
such questions as were put to
him, the Governor was asked:
whats to become Of the peo-
pie turned out Of houses Z"
Promptly, and with an inspi-
ration of humanity and manhood
the Governor said.
81 will send them tents. No
family in Ohio, whilst I am Gov
srnor, shall be without shelter, if
can help it."
All honor to Governor Hoad-
ey for this noble sentiment. He
ordered the Sheriff 10 see to it
hat in case families were turn
d out of doors that requisition
,e made on him at once and he
would supply tents in which they
nay be sheltered, pending the
of the country by the
Blaine Syndicate despotism
low ruling the conquered pro-
'ince of Ward.
Governor Hoadley is a good
nan. as we'll as worthy Gov.
rnor. He will enforce the law {
S chief magistrate. He will
end a helping mereiful hand to ;
he poor who are in the grasp
f the monopoly.
Governor Hoadley has our
hanks for his humane. manly, j
old and brave words at Nelson
lille.

Damage Suit Against the
GflV

Correspondence of the Sentinel
Not that there is one in being
yet, but that the city authorities
are laying the ropes for one, ol
perhaps several. The property
on Front street, in the Gallagher
Addition, has been regularly tax.
ed for lighting the town with
gas, and there is not gas light
on the street in that part Of the
town, unless the one on Gallagh.
er's Avenue might be called an
exception. Taxes have been as
sessed for improving streets, &C.,
and not a blade of grass has been
touched bv the city in the way
of improving the streets or drain
ing or filling up the two ponds
that exist in it i'm wet weather.
The citizens have quietly and
patiently stood these things, al
though the taxes assessed were
sufficiently unlawful, perhaps to
destroy the validity of any tax
sales of property in that part Of
of town. That part of town has
also been used asa common pas
ture lot ever since the addition
has been thrown open, and the
citizens over there have peace
ably submitted. Now it is pro-
posed to turn the water from
Gallagher avenue into it and run
it into a hole that is in the street
hat has no outlet, and thus make
1 pond which will extend entire
v across the streets and side
walks into the adjoining prop
,rty, there 20 remain and breed
lisease and death until dried up
~ the sun.
Whether the citizens of that |
,art of the town have been suff- |
ientlylsubjugated to permit their
to be deprecated and a
estilence TO be bred in their
oor-! ards, remains t. be seen.
nd whether any authority has
he right unnecessarily to create
public nuisance, may be ques-
on: But let any fair minded
ian of Judgment, who thinks

leads. II is simple outrage.

The Killing of Bill Hare.

The killing of Bill Hare, as de.
tailed,in dispatches elsewhere, is
a most atrocious. cowardly, cold
blooded murder.
In some respects it IS even
more terrible in its significance
than the Weldon tragedy. Hare
was engaged in a lawful duty
He was hired to do a work, and
whilst doing the work he was
employed to do, was murde ed
because he fulfilled the contract.
There is a horror about this kind
of a murder that is startling
Usually murder is committed by
men inflamed and controlled by
passions, avrice, hate, &c. In
this case a man was murdered,
if not by accident, from a princi-
pie which strikes at the very
fou ndation of individual rights
and civil liberty.
We hope the assassins will be
and that the severest
penalties of the law be pro mptly
administered.
