BUTLER occupies the minds of the De-
mocracy Just now far more than they
like to acknowledge, and the fact that
he proposes to stand by his nominations
and make the race for President is bad
news TO them. The New York Sun
with its left handed support of Cleve-
land and its open avowal Of Mr.. Butler
makes his position one Of peculiar in
terest in the political situation. Not
wlihstanding his numerous inconsistent
cies Mr.. Butler has endeared himself to
u large following Of the voters of the
country. He has always managed to
make himself the champion of some fac
tion or interest on which he builded
platform to suit himself and on which
he has planted himself, and his element
OF popularity is particularly and peculi-
arly his own, and that is why his candi-
dacy means more than It looks, because
1t win give Kelly and his disgruntled
Tammany Democrats an opportunity to
get even with the Cleveland managers
by voting for him, and with Kelly an
adherent OF Butler, open or lukewarm,
will take New York out of the list Of
doubtful States, and give it TO Blaine.
Butler is running to defeat Cleveland as
well as to please himself, and 1t is folly
for the Democracy to attempt to
ignore 1t. faf f.l a.am

Mr.. BLAINE has been the object of
much SANDER so far in the campaign,
but the telegraph reports Of yesterday
show that he viii bring one paper and
editor up with a very short turn on ac-
count OF ISLANDERS uttered against the
good name Of his family. This is right,
and every good citizen viii side with
Mr.. Blaine In his purpose to prosecute
TO the fullest these malicious slanderers.

In GARFIELD had lived II Is more than
probable that the Morey letter forgery,
and all the high joints behind II, would
have had nm airing In the courts, but as
1t was, the promptness with which it
was denied by Mr.. Garfield, was only
equaled by the arrest OF the author. Mr..
Blaine has promptly denied one of the
ISLANDERS against HIMSELF and empha-
sized 1t by the commencement Of an
action for libel and If he will keep up
that good work and run to their holes n
few Of these irresponsible traducers, he
will do the country service Of great
value.

II WHAT is reported as the tenor of
Major Savers acceptance speech at New
Braunfels be true, he is wofully lacking
In political discretion, and badly needs
an advisory board. lie is reported to
have dug up the Morrison bill from its
grave, and TO have embraced its corpse
with every demonstration of affection
and respect. winding up with the
declaration that had he been a member
of Congress he would have voted for the
Morrison bill, and in the event Of his
election, he would vote for similar
bill. The Morrison bill proposed to lop
OLA per centage of duties from all
dutiable articles, regardless of whether
such duties were high or low, or were
absolutely necessary to protect branches
OF manufacturing started upon the faith
of existing duties. The passage of the
Morrison bill would have paralyzed all
the Industries Of the Union, as well as
have deranged the business interests of
the country. The people do not want
any morrison bill" in their cup, and
will not send Major Savers to Congress
in order that he may deal the wool
growing interests a death blow. The
wool interest is n matter of vital impor-
lance to San Antonio MS well as to the
sheepmen scattered over Southwest
Texas.

TnE telegraph reported yesterday the
killing of four Mormon Elders in Ten
nessee by mob of 10 masked men.
Killing is murder, and the courts should
so decide, hut whether the men who
preach this falth-this twin relic of bar
barism-should be allowed to go into
every community and attempt to secure
proselytes, do not deserve punishment
is question that even law-abiding citl-
zens will decide in the affirmative, The
Mormon recruits heretofore have come
from foreign lands, and 1t is only lately
that the Elders have openly attempted
to secure converts in any portion OF the
United States. The Tennessee method
is very severe. but no one can doubt its
effectiveness.

each fined $40 and costs by the Court
for contempt. Yesterday afternoon

and said that he was late getting to this
city, on account of waiting for the ex.
press train. The Court informed him
that he had better be more careful In
the future and remitted the fine.
Robert Harmon, colored, appeared
at the evening session and stated that
he was under the impression that
he was not to attend until next Mon.
day, or he would certainly have been

that he 10 brother TO the prisoner, and
resides with his father at Middletown.
He never knew any quarrel or i'll feel
ing between his brother and Warrington
on the night of the killing he was
standing on q corner near the church
talking to Georgiana Seaford and Nancy
Draper. William Wapples and Lewis
johnson were also talking to the girls,
and the frst named walked away, when
the witness, brother Lewis, started off
with them this was shortly after =
O'Clock.
About twenty-five minutes after.
wards, he heard two or three licks
struck. and two shots fired, when the
witness ran around the church after
he came back he saw Warrington ~.
ing on the side walk, and helped to
raise him up, but did not assist in re-
moving him home. On cross .ex amina-
ton by Mr.. Gray, the witness said that
after Warrington shot the frst
time, he raised himself partly
mp, and fred again, when he
fell to the ground and grabbed hold of
the fence, Mr. Gray asked him how he
saw all Of this, when he had testified
that lie run rs soon as the flrst shot was
fred.
he said he had hurried and got back
to where Warrfugtoa- war laying and
that he WAS there fully ten minutes be.
fore he seen his brother Lewis.
The skilful cross-examipation of the
witnesses for the defense by Mr.. Gray,
showed that according TO the plot of the
scene, none Of them were within thirty
feet of Warrington when he was struck,
and a. the night was quite dark, and
large maple trees all around, they could
not by any possibility have seen what
took place.
When this witness left the stand, Mr..
Higgins said that he had no other
witnesses present, and as he said that
he might have some additional testi.
mony to offer, the Court at $50
this morning, and the jurors were
to pass their night IN one Of the jury
rooms.
The prisoner, Lewis johnson, is q
short, stout yoang colored m an, appar-
emily about 20 years of age, and seems
totally uDconcerned. He spends his
time In the dock looking around the
room, and pays very little attention to
what the witnesses say, and when one
Of the witnesses told how badly he was
frightened when the shots were fred,
and described how he ran from the
place, johnson burst out laughing.
His father, who is very respectable
looking old colored man, occupies
seat Immediately behind Mr.. Higgins,
and seems greatly concerned at the &C.
rious position occupied by his son. All
the witnesses examined, with the ex.
ception Of the surveyor and doctor,
were colored, and as q general thing,
gave their evidence In straig ghtforward
manner. In converting with q reporter,
Johnson's father said that he is only 18
years old, and that of fifteen children
he was the mothers favorite, aud was
never in any trouble before.

the efforts of the speaker, Mr. Willey.
He spoke of their action in very mn
