Trouble Makers.

Three candidates have already been
nominated for the presidency, namely,
James G.. Blaine, Grover Cleveland, and
benjamin F. Butler. A temperance con-
yention will meet at Pittsburg tomorrow
and put another candidate in tho field,
which will most probably complete the
list. 1t is not likely that the temperance
vote will change the result OF the presi-
dental election in any state, although
the democratic party is mainly indebted
to the temperance people for its hope of
continued existence. Three times within
the past twelve years they have turned
over the great state of Ohio to democratic
control, and given the party boom that
was felt in every state in the union, They
have managed to keep one democrat from
Ohio in the United States senate ever
since tho election Of Mr.. Thurman in
1873. Mr.. Payne will tako Mr. Pendle-
toms seat next December in regular sue
cession. These throe senators were
elected by the temperance party, although
the votes which thoy received wero mostly
cast by democrats. The present demo-
cratic governor of Ohio tHoadly) also
owes his high position to the temperance
people, although he was voted for by tho

party that directly antagonized their
principles.
The democratic majority in tho present
house of representatives is largely made
up Of gentlemen who owe their election
to tho impracticables of the temperance
party. The strong republican state of
Wisconsin sends eight democratic to
three republican representatives and the
prohibitionists came very near defeating
Mr. Stephenson in the ninth district,
which would have cut down the rcpubl-
can representation to Mr.. Guenther aud
Mr. Price.
The democratic representatives from
Iowa owe their election to the prohi-
bitionists, aud Mr.. Wilson, who represents
strong republican district (the fifth,
got in by majority so slender that his
seat was contested by his democratic op
ponent. These are instances of what the
prohibitionists can do when they try.
As long as they can be induced to run
candidates tho democratic party has a
chance to live. We are not aware that
the democratic party has ever done much
to carry out thVprinciples Of tho pro-
hibitionists, but they keep on electing
democrats to tho state Legislatures, to
congress, and to the United States senate
all tho same. IL Is not likely they will
elect democratic president in 1884. but

A DECISION has been made in New
York by Surrogate Rollins in u will case
which will not pass unchallenged. John
Tilby, an aged butcher, married woman
who was supposed to be o widow, and
dying soon afterward bequeathod her his
estate, which amounted TO something like
$300,000. Two sons by former marriage
woman had another husband living at tho
time she married their father, from whom
she had not been divorced. 1t was main
tained on her behalf that she had nover
been legally married to the man who pre-
ceded Mr.. Tilby in her affections. Tho
surrogate however, found from the evil
.dence that the allegation made by the
sons as to her former marriage was true,
and it followed, as amatter of course, that
her marriage with Mr.. Tilby was Illegal.
The question then was whether the will
could be set aside because the testator
gave his property to woman to whom
he was illegally married. The surrogate
ruled that Mr., Tilby had been deceived
by the woman, and was victim of fraud
an'deceptiond ut tho time he made his will
Consequently it was not admitted TO pro.
bate. The fact that Mr., Tilby did not
know the real status of the woman ut the
time he married her would necessarily be
a matter of inference rather than proof,
and if he did know it the ground on
which the will was set aside would e
swept away.

A BIG STRIKE IN NEW YORK.
Thousands Of workmcn Demand That the Hours
OF Labor he Reduced.

NEW YoRK, July q About 1900 bricklayers,
5000 laborers, and 900 hod-hoisting engineers
and trainers struck work this morning because
their employers refused TO grant their demands
that nine hours shall constitute days work
instead Of 10. Those employers who denied
the request of their workmen say that they
can get other mon to take their places, aud
that whether they can or not II will be but
few days at the outside when The men will be
willing to return TO work Under the old terms.
The bosses who granted the nine hours think
thHt the others are foolish not to do the same
thing, as they will have TO yield in the end.
Messrs Andrews " Son, who have the new
cotton exchange job, agreed to the nine hours,
aud oil their men are working as usual. The
firm has in Its employ ut present nearly 200
