BALANCING ACCOUNTS.

DENVER, Col, Oct. 16.-Yestcrday morn
ing, Matt B. Parkinson, sheep herder, rode
up to the house of his former employer,
Derby 2. Payne, a small sheep owner living
three miles from Deer Trail, water station
on the Kansas Pacific road, forty miles from
Denver, and, after refusing Payne's in vita
ton to breakfast, called him outside and
demanded payment of $50, balance due foI
work, Payne replied he mad no money then,
but hoped to have some in few days when
he would settle. Parkinson upon this drew
revolver and fired three shots, the first of
which passed entirely through Payne's body,
killing him instantly. Parkinson gave him
self into the custody of an officer at Deer
Frail. After waving examination he was
taken to Denver and lodged in jail. He
claims Payne made motion as if to draw a
pistol, therefor he shot in self defense.
Payne was a highly respected citizen.

Dear Sir:-I was somewhat surprised
to receive clipping from your paper
headed "Matrimonial Troubles" re-
member having some conversation with
you. but the purport don't remember,
as was somewhat under the baleful in
fiuence Of stimulants at the time, and
when In said state will speak too much.
III said what your article says uttered
an untruth. Please do me the favor TO
contradict the statement, as it places
me and my wife both In a false position,
especially my wife, whom parted from
Wednesday morning In the best of hui
NOR, having settled all our little differ
ences which didn't amount to n row of
pins. l am sorry to put you to this trou-
BILE, but l deem 1t my duty to clear up
the name of my wife. The old prOverb
is fully verified In this instance, "When

liable Journal you will do a favor to an
injured lady.

ONE thing is needed to restore public confidence
that is punishment OF the guilty. That some per.
sons have been guilty, everybody knows. 1t is not
for the press to pronounce judgment; but public
opinion will surely not be satisfied, nor will conf
depce in the integrity of corporate management
be revived as II should be, unless there is mani
tested enough ofpublic justice to insure the pun
ishment Of criminals 1t will not do any longer to
have it said with a color of truth, that man who
steals by the millions in Wall street eau escape
with impunity.--New York Tribunf.
Never wero truer words uttered. Nothing
fosters communism, discomfort, and reckless
contempt of the law among the great strug-
Cling masses with greater certainty than the
escape of millionaire thieves through the
m he orthe law. Every failure of the law
an,sh swi oilers of high degree cheapens

will one day yield harvest of national dis.

Before tho close Of the next century tho
inoineration OF the bodies of the dead will be
fixed custom in the most enlightened por-
tons of the world. A current of opinion
upon this subject is setting in which promises
to grow wider and broader every year, and
in the course of time men will begin to spec
ulate upon the superstitions and prejudices
of the ages in which cremation was not toll
Grated. For what we know, the practice
may have had its origin in public necessity,
and when the same conditions return ii will
be revived. DIR. lie Moyno who built the
first and as yet the only crematory in this
country, was in some respects an enthusiast,
but in making provision for the burning of
his own body he no doubt contemplated the
sanitary considerations which will eventually
commend his example to millions of his
countrymen.
There have been so many applications for
the use of the lie Moyno furnace that tho
trustees have been obliged to refuse all
except those which come from citizens of
Washington county, Pa. In the meantime
cremation societies have been formed in New
York, Philadelphia, New Orleans, and proba-
bly, in other cities, and in a short time there
will be dozen Of furnaces in operation.
The example of the late DR.. Gross, of Phila-
delphia, has greatly strengthened the sonti-
ment in favor of incineration among orthodox
Christians. The first persons who requested
that their bodies should be burned in tho
lie Moyne furnace were somewhat conspicu-
Gus as freethnkers, and this tended to deepen
the prejudices of religious people against tho
custom. The church will hold out in OPPOSE
ton for some time, but in the end the law of
utility and public safety will assert itself.
Venezuela, Catholic state, has made COM
pulsory the cremation of tho bodies of VIC
tins of yellow fever. Tho United States
consul at Maracaibo has furnished the state
department with copy of the decree issued
by President Blanco to this effect. Furnaces
for incarceration arc to be established at
Caracas and in all the districts visited by the
epidemic. The management of these orema-
tories is intrusted to tho secretary of tho in
terror, who will prescribe the necessary rules
and regulations. The friends of the deceased
are to be permitted to see the process, il they
desire, and at the conclusion the ashes are to
be delivered to them in a sealed urn, with q
certificate from the officer in charge. This
is purely sanitary regulation, intended tt
prevent the spread of contagious diseases
but after its utility and cheapnOss have been
demonstrated the custom will become
general.

The danger threatening the republican party
impendS from the nomination Of James G. Blaine,
for the reason thata period of mercantile ana
business uncertainty shoqlld be the last in which
to nominate a candidate whose public record
promises dash and recklessuess rather than the
safe conduct of public affairs needed to restore
confidence. We have no doubt that the business
community would saY as between Arthur and
Blaine, let as have the former, by all odds. If
success Is desirable, Blaine must not carry the
republican nominating convention. This fact
has caused the turning 10 Arthur, and given him
his increased strength AZ tho commercial and
monetary centers Of thp country.
1t is of "no consequence" what influences
elected the delegates whether they have the
Arthur. Blaine, Edmurlds, or any other label upon
them, as 4 matter of preference, The republican
party is not so enamgred with any man that II
would have him selected at the risk OF defeating
the organization. And to preventsuoh political
di suster IL may DO NECESSARY for concentration
upon President Arthur at an early stage OF the
balloting Delays ara dangerous In conventions
No doubt there will be a careful comparing o.
notes among all the delegates who believe Blaine,
nomination suicidal before the national conYen
ton goes to a ballot The trouble with the Ed

The English newspapers are giving them.
selves unnecessary trouble on the Congo
question. Since the true inwardness of the
little private arrangement entered into be-
tween England and Portugal for controlling
the trade of the Congo basin has been ex-
posed the London editors have become ter
ribly alarmed over the prospect of French
aggression in Africa, and the United States
comes in for a modicum OF censure Tor
recognizing the flag of the African
International association. There is an
impression abroad in this country that France
has as much right to acquire possessions in
Africa as either England or Portugal has and
that she is not likely to impose the "Mozam-
bique tariff on merchandise sont up the
Congo. Whatever concessions the African
International association makes to France
will be subject to the conditions on which the
flag OF the association has been recognized by
other nations.
