CIeveIand's Home Strength.

From the Springfield Republican. Rep.
Cleveland is conspicuously strong in
drawing votes from men who have usu-
ally acted with the Republicans. Recent
years have educated New York State up
to an extent of independent voting
which the rest of the country fails as yet
to appreciate. Let the inquirer after po-
htical light go among the active business
and professional men of that city, and he
viii discover a support for Cleveland
that is vastly significant. The opposition
of John Kelly is a tower of strength to
the reform governor and presidential can
didate. New Workers view the question
of national government by the light of
their local experiences. To them Tam
many and Kelly embody and oppressive
ly illustrate the worst tendencies and
burdens of misrule. AS opposed to him
by official acts and we'll tried public puc-
poses stands the governor of the state.

Hol. Ten Eyck, notorious hard
character of Brodhead, on last Sat
urday evening while under the in
f1uence of liquor, fatally stabbed
his wife and afterwards hung him
self to tree with clothes line. The
woman died from her injuries on
Monday afternoon. Ten Eyck had
served several terms in the peniten-
tairy in Wisconsin and other states
for horse stealing and we believe bad
a hand in stealing the horse which
was sold or traded to Thomas Crib
BILE, of Waldwick few years ago.
Some unknown person not having
the fear of God, man, or the law
before his eyes, cut and mutilated
seventeen pickets on the new fence
around the residence of c. r. Mof-
felt. If the wretch who committed
the act of vandalism could be
ferreted out and made pay the ex-
IRENE penalty of the law it would
afford warning TO others who wan
tonly destroy property. When acts
of this kind are committed some
efforts should be made by the city
authorities to find out and punish
the guilty parties.
The Darlington Republican says:
While digging a cistern on the
premises of c. F. Osborn, on Ohio
street, the diggers, when about
seven feet below the surface of the
ground, came upon what appears
to be tree standing upright in the
ground. In digging they have
been obliged to cut of off the limbs,
while on the side it appears as if
they had come very near the trunk,
as the increase in the size of the
limbs indicated that they were
nearing the main body, and at the
point where the digging was stopped
the larger limbs measured from six
to eight inches in diameter. There
are various opinions as to the nature
of the wood, but the majority believe
it to be walnut. The curious part
of it is. how did the tree get so far
below the surface, in that position.
