Shot in the Back.

INDIANAPOLIS, September Ser
geant Jules Fredericks of the Greely
party is in the city visiting his brother, ].
W. Fredericks. In an interview with a
Daily Nens reporter, Fredericks corrobor-
ates Sergeant Brainard's denial of the
story, that the expedition was divided in
to parties. He gives particulars of the
shooting of Henry under orders Of Gree
ly, saying the sentence was executed by
himself and Sergents Brainard and
Long. They shot Henry in the back,
two balls taking effect, and producing in
slant death. One gun was not loaded.
They were compelled to this course be-
cause Henry was strong and active as ever,
and had he suspected their purpose could
easily have killed them. Fredericks says
his experience has not satisfied him, and
he intends to visit the Arctic regions
as soon as possible

Senator Anthony's Remains

in the Ceremonies.
Senator Anthony's Funeral.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., September c.
The funeral of Senator Anthony was
solemnized at the Congregational Church
ct noon to-day, and was the occasion of
a gathering of representative men of the
nation and State, such as was probably
never equalled before in this city. A
Sunday quiet prevailed in the central
part Of the city, many of the largest bust
ness houses being closed during the hours
of the funeral. An emblem of sorrow was
displayed from many shops in various
parts of the city. The doors of the
church were thrown open to the public
shortly after IL o'clock and shortly after
Governor Bourne, accompanied by his
staff OF ~ex-Governors, State officials and a
long procession of past and present mem
bers of the Legislature filed into the main
entrance, followed by the Judges of the
Supreme Court, Circuit Judges, United
States Federal officers and large delega-
tons from various local bodies. As the
bells rang out the hour of noon the casket
containing the remains of the Senator
was slowly borne from his late residence.
President Arthur entered the side door,
accompanied by Senator Edmunds,
President of the United States Senate,
and other distinguished persons. The
massive pulpit front was tastefully and APP
propriately draped with Grape, while on
the Communion table rested a beautiful
cross of tea roses and pinks. Rev. Mr..
Woodbury. delivered the funeral Grafton.
A very long cortege followed the remains
to Swan Point Cemetery, where they were

INDIANAPOLIS, September 5.-Another
step was taken in the Federal Court to-
day in the Blaine Sentilel matter by the
filing of the following The defendants
move the Court for a rule against the
plaintiff herein to answer i~nterogatories
under oath as recited and filed with tho
answer of the defendants, and that the
Courts shall make such rule returnable at
such time as may be deemed by the
Court to be reasonable for the purpose of
said action, as by statute provided and re-
CURED The argument could not be
heard on the motion to-day, and inasmuch
as Judge Woods goes to Fort Wayne on
Monday to hold court, the matter will
probably not be ruled upon for several
days. The plaintiff counsel have not re

five years longer. In this case, too,
the wrong is doubled through the
bad management of the prison.
Had this man been a burglar or a
forger, and beeu sentenced to five
years in the penitentiary, his lot
would have been much pleasanter
thans in Ludlow street jail. He
would have had plenty Of wholesome
food, sufficient clothing and consid-
crate treatment. But not being a
criminal, only debtor, he has been
half starved, exposed to brutal treat
ment and shows how closely New
York, in the fourth quarter OF the
nineteenth century, can initiate the
foul English prisons of hundred
years ago.

IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBS.

The New York Times says it has
been shown in the Ludlow street
Jail inquiry that, Notwithstanding
the ostensible abolition of imprison-
ment for debt in that state, the pro
cess itself continues to exist. No
matter what the technical definition
Of the practice, It is in evidence that
a man may be arrested, lodged in
jail, and kept there for years, on a
civil process, and because he is una
BILE to meet his liabilities. This is
beyond serious controversy the iden-
teal evil called Imprisonment for
debt which the people of New York
undertook to do away with as a relic
of barbarism. Here is a man who
has lain in Jail FIVE years for no
criminal fault, and who, for all that
can be perceived, may languish there

In our county the political aspect
is something phenomenal. Several
attempts were made to organize an
independent movement, but from
the first the leaders on both sides,
smiled, and paid no further attention
to these futile efforts.
Yet with the non-partisans abides
the balance of power, and on their
choice the victory will fall to one or
the other party next fall.
In 1880 we carried the county af-
ter a heated canvass by a close but
easy majority against strong men;
in 1882 we were beaten in about the
same proportion.
Probably nowhere else in the
south does such a state of things ex-
list, and probably nowhere else in
the state is this balance held by an
element more cool in Judgment or
better trained to estimate the value
of the politicians promises or the
weight Of party platform. On
either side stand heated partisans,
on either side are men trained and
accustomed for years to fall into
line and vote soidly for party.
Among democrats habit and con
viction have been fortified by the
experience, that even the best candi-
date may be so weighted down by
the ignorant mass of the opposite
party that it is impossible to prom
Use ourselves anything but evil from
the domination Of any republican
however exemplary in private life
The utter futility of independent
claims and promises are fully appre.
ciated in Putnam. Here we have
some of the keenest and best trained
politicians in the state; the issues
between the two parties are always
stoutly contested on strict party
lines, and on each side the indepen
dents have been quietly ignored be
cause their claims present no real is
sue to be carried before the people
Here is a hardly contested battle
ground and the leaders know eacl
other too well to make any attempt
at befogging the real issue The
independent only throws away his
vote, and in Putnam all realize the
fact. The democratic candidates
carry number of votes always cast
for the republicans in national af
fairs, and which, by northern men
were always given to that party be
fore their owners acquired citizen
ship in Florida.
The character Of the candidate
will be made an important factor il
the next camwaign, and both par
ties are fully alive to the fact. W.
will base our platform ON principle
and we shall win.
We can point to a prosperous adj
ministration, the frugal management
of the state government, low taxes
and entire freedom from all suspi
cion of jobbing. We shall appea
to an intelligent constituency anC
the facts and figures are in our ia
vOr.
Putnam county will 90 democrat
ic next fall and Bisbee will be al

life in his far northern home.

Cor. \. Y. Times
As the Times takes up the cudgel readi-
ly to correct abuses, may [, as one of the
people fond of good cigars, call your at
tention to the following habit imperiI-
ling health: A prominent physician told
me lately that from the practice of cigar
makers wetting the wrapper with their
saliva and biting the end of the cigar into
shape a spread of syphilitic disease was
taking place; that he knew of several
cases. Somewhat alarmed, | managed
to visit number of factories. Two-thirds
of the cigar-makers, l found, daub the
whole end of the cigar with their saliva.
Thinking that Cuban workmen might
not do it, 1 visited places where they
were employed, and found that not only
did they use their saliva to make the
wrapper stick, but that most of them be
fore wrapping bit the end of the cigar
into shape with their teeth. AS the physi-
clan informs me that many of the cigar
makers have sore mouths from disease.
it is dangerous as well as a beastly
habit.
