Corralled by Reporter, and Permitted to
Express Himself
New YORK. Aug. 13-Thos Sexton and VIM
Redmond arrived this morning, and left for Bos-
ton, to attend the Land League convention. Sex
ton stated that his relations with Parnel and
Davitt were friendly, and that no estrangement
existed between them. Sexton comes as Par
nells representative to the Land League conYen-
ton in Boston. Sexton was seen by reporter,
to whom he said: sBIy only purpose in this
visit to America is to observe the formation and
system Of the league, and discuss methods for
fostering harmony, for on harmony alone de-
pends the successful carrying out Of the princi-
pies of the league | do not deem It right, in
year like this, when the country
is absorbed in presidential contest,
to endeavor to gain attention for any
other subject. shall probably return home on
the Both inst, as political events require my at
tention some. After next year shall come
again and address the citizens of your country
on the subject of the work we have in hand
When asked if he had any special news from the
other side, Sexton said: mo; affairs remain
about the same. The land laws are badly ad-
ministcred. The government appointed land
commissioners who are In sympathy with the
landlord class, and they broke the back Of the
Healy act That tenant should be compelled
to pay rent on his own improvements
is the shameful thing and the leagues
first effort Is toward the abolishment Of that
system. When we accomplish that end the ad-
iudication of rents will be taken up No doubt
that question win require long consideration.
ssWhat are the essential differences between
Parnel and Davitt9 We have heard over here
that Davitt has been ostracized.
Sexton seemed surprised, and answered:
tThere must be some mistake Davitt has a
plan Of his own for the benefit of tenants, but
that he has been ostraeized by the
Parnel party is altogether wrong. He
and I travelled together to the Leitrim
convention, soyou sec we must be friendly, and
he assured me that he would allow no personal
preference to stand in the way of unity Every
body has great respect for Davitt. He is a man
Of great thought and has suffered severely for
the cause. Any statement that there is any ill
feeling between Parnell and him is erroneous =
1t is probable that a meeting will be organized
when Sexton returns from Boston, to give him a
reception, and afford him an opportunity of ex-
planning the work Of the Land League

A few minutes convinced US that the armor has
not rusted on the nail With the consummate
art that has ever been his own, the orator PLAYED
upon the feelings of the dense mass. The pass
ing touches of humor when he dryly deplored
that he was too plant and traced the causes and
effect of the three previous crises (remarking
that that of 1882 saw the Lords fighting for polt-
ical life and that of 1886 fighting for their rents
were all over characteristic of the man. His de-
scription of the House Of Lords as a sort Of
caucus of the Tory party was happy piece of
light comedy, recalling the utterances Of those
perishable similes--the cave of Adullam and
the services as gigantic scheme of outdoor re-
lief for the aristocracy. Gctting fairly at the
House Of Lords by and by, Mr.. Bright squared
his broad shoulders, and hit out in the familiar
form, to the immense enjoyment of the audi
ence The finest defamation, perhaps, was
that in which he insisted that the persistent
assertion that the Lords have not rejected the
bill is fraud, Misrepresentation and scandal
Next came the retort as to the Tories, who are
to-day afraid of the laborers swamping the
farmers, while they have no scruples in swamp
ing the Yorkshire and Lancashire manufacturers
by the Disraei reform bill. His voice began to
fail somewhat toward the end of the forty min
utes speech, but it recovered during the pretty
by-play in which he introduced Rob the Grinder,

A GREAT BR
The WEEKLY JOURNAL
for the Campaign at
% CENTS

In order to place the WEEKLY INDIANA
STATE JOURNAL, in the home Of every Repub-
ican in the State, and thus do good campaign
service for the Republican party, we have de-
cided to send the paper till after the presiden-
tial election for 25 cents.
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is q complete family
newspaper. 1t is specially edited, and much
Of the matter appearing in it is especially pre-
is compendium Of the NEWS OF THE WORLD
from all quarters; it has full and accurate mar
ket reports; its editorials are POLITICAL social
and general; it has the news Of the State
and of the city. Its literary and miscellane-
Gus features are Of the best.
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is newspaper that
should be in every family IN Indiana and at
the price named for it there is no reason why
it should not be, at least during the exciting
and important campaign upon which the
country has now entered. Political com
nittees cannot do better than to see that
copies of THE WEEKLY JOURNAL are placed
in the hands Of those persons in their
counties who are not now readers of
some sound Republican paper. The
tariff question is the one issue which
is likely to be most prominently dis
cussed, and to this the Journal pays especial
attention, advocating the maintenance of the
principle of protection to American industry
in whatever revision Of the tariff laws may be
made necessary in the future developments Of
business and labor In this question the
farming community is deeply interested, and
the discussions of the Journal will be
largely directed to the agricultural aspects Of
the question.
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is the only paper in
Indiana that publishes regularly Ten Pages,
and this will be continued throughout the
campaign, despite the low price. Send in
names at once, either singly or in clubs, and
thus get the full term for the money.

killed his wife and then shot himself through
the head yesterday afternoon, is still alive. The
coroncrs inquest into the cause of Mrs Collisions
death resulted in a verdict that her husband
killed her while insane The investigation
showed he had hallucnation that the people of
Dakota had employed him to write history Of
that Territory; that he had failed to do so, and
that the people Of that Territory were preparing
to arrest and punish him. In addition to that,
he believed he had written letter to Dakota
which would ruin hundreds of families there
to avoid disgrace and atone for his wrong.
