Nearly all Of the men who were
active agents or accomplices in the
murder of Mrs. Surratt are dead, and
nearly all died by their own hands.
One still lives, and in Washington
city, and has recently spoken upon
the subject through the medium of
the press. 1t is said that he does
not sleep unless the lamps are light
ed in his room of night, but by day
light he talks and writes as boldly
and as badly as if his conscience was
not cankered. Speaking of the
slaughtered. woman he says: "Nrs.
Surratt was the master spirit among
the Lincoln assassins. She was a
woman Of unusual nerve, and also of
unusual intelligence. During the tri-
nj her behavior was firm, her nerves
mistaken, and she saw her dan
ger and methods of meeting the gray
err evidence. believe that she kept
those men up to their work-that
Booth himself was inferior to her in
purpose" Age and experience
should have taught Judge Holt dis
erection if not intelligent decency.
This slur and sinful SANDER on e
murdered woman is all the more
solemnly vile coming from one whose
white hairs would reasonably com
mand ruvereLce.

Gen. Geo. C. Cabell, who represents
the Danviile, Va, district, was an
eyewitness to the much talked of
and magniied Virginia riots. He
exposed himself to personal danger
by his strenuous effort to quell the
disturbance, and his version of the
''negro massacre" as given to a Com
merctal Telegram correspondent de-
scribes the affair in plausible light:
at was first a street fight. A
white man and a negro got into a fight
and somebody fired off pistol during
the difficulty. This was considered
a signal to murder some one, and the
shooting became general. The ne
groes were killed because they were
towards. Our white men whipped
them; that's all. The negroes tried
just as hard as they could to kill the
white men, and had they succeeded
as well as the latter, l presume the
people north would have said nothing
about it. As it is, they try to make
it appear a great political slaughter.
There were as many pistols branish
ed by the blacks as the whites. Some
one has suggested hat the affair
should be investigated by Congress.
1t is a matter that does not concern
the functions of Congress. 1t is a
matter to be settled by county officers
and the laws of Virginia. But ifany-
body makes a proposition to it I will
second it, and I venture the Demo
cratic party will gain strength by
the investigation"

The Republican Senate has acted
fairly and ~squarely in one sense. 1t
has not been hypocritical; it has
boldly announced it's defiance of Civil
Service rules, and while stultifying
itself, has not exercised the pharisaic
semblance of honesty SO common to
the Republican party. 1t has, as
vulger little boys say, given itself
"dead away" by completely ignoring
every tenet ofthe Civil Service creed,
and Diminishing time-honored and
most efficient employees from the
Senate, exercising the guillotine up
on the neck of the Sergeant-at-Arms
and the humblest laborer alike
When the Senate became Democratic
the employees were not materially
disturbed; that is to say, that the
minor offices were almost equally dis
tributed between the Republican,
and Democrats. J''4'

Every movement of Republicans in
Congress and their prompters out
side is to spend money and increase
the appropriations. Senator Logan
wants the Government to give mill.
ions to the public schools. Senator
Ingalls, wants to increase the pension
charge. The President wants an ex-
pensive system of coast defences
undertaken. Hamilton, of Illinois,
wants to construct canals and give
money bounties to all soldiers,
whether they were disabled in the
army or not. Anything and every
thing to make an excuse for heavy
taxation.

The sad experience of Miss Emma
Bond, of Taylorsville, Illinois, who
was so brutally outraged by a com
pany of human tiends some time ago,
has precipitated the whole family in
to troubles such as few are called
upon to endure. Two suicides have
resulted from the affair; one was a

to marry one of the defendants in the
case, and the other was 4 cousin of

Senator Jones, the Republican
member from Nevada, has expressed
himself in the most remarkable man
ner about the future policy of the
Republican party. The members Of
that monopolist's party have been
drawing in the circulating medium
of the country, and through the pro
tective tariff have withdrawn two
hundred million of dollars from circu
lation by locking up these surplus
revenues in the Government vaults.
The intention was to squeeze the poor
man and precipitate another panic,
so as to make the poor man poorer
and the rich man richer. The cleo.
ton of Carlisle has seriously inter
fered with their plans. Unwilling
to give the peoplethe benefit of a de-
crease in taxation, Senator Jones pro
poses to make the protective tax high
er, SO the American capitalist will gel
the revenue, and spread himself in
stead of the money going to the Gov.
eminent, and in this way it is expect
ed by giving this money to capital
lists, and feathering the nests of Re
publican Congressman, to defeat the
interests of the people, who demand
a lower rate of taxation. If any maj
is in doubt, let him buy a few boxes
of matches and see the difference il
price the Democrats of the last Con
gress made by reducing the protec
tive tax on that necessary houshol'
convenience.
