Trouble Growing Out of an Attempt TO Dis
cuss American Politics in England.
LoNpoN, Oct 2a.-G E Rogers, the Ameri
can arrested at the instance of Parkinson editor
of St Stephens Review on ehargelof assault and
battery, was before the Bow-street Police Court
to-day Train. the barrister for the prosecution,
said Rogers had visited the Office of the st.
Stephens Review, aud as a result of this visit an
article of an amusing character was inserted in
the Review. In this, Rogers was dubbed
s'Ta1ker Rogers Rogers objected to the
article, and revisited the Office of the Review.
He there indulged in abusive Language and
struck Manager Parkinson, and vowed
he would kill him. Parkinson, however, re-
ceiVed no serious injury. After that he assault
ed cashier Daglish. There was no doubt, the
harrister continued, but that Rogers was a dan
gerous gentleman, and was connected with peo-
pie throughout the country engaged in various
dangerous effenses and the sooner he left Eng
land the better it would be for himself.
Manager Parkinson testified that Rogers called
at the Review Office and offered to write
tcle, and this article appeared in the Review.
Subsequently to this, he met Rogers
at the American Exchange, and was there
assaulted by him. Rogers acted like a mad
man, and uttered a menace that he would do
for them all" Rogers, he further testified gave
him no useful information regarding the presi
dental election in America, and nothing that he
said appeared in tine Review. He was seeking
information of this kind, because in connection
with Wallace Mackay, the Review was contem-
plating the issuing of a special edition referring
to the American candidates, Messrs Blaine
and Cleveland. He had been recon-
mended TO Find Talker Rogers as one
who would be likely to give him the facts he de-
sired.
Rogers said in his defense that he had been
treated unfairly, he had been called a rowdv
and rufian, accused of being an Irishman and
associating with dangerous people. The fact
WIS he was Kermonter and the accusation
that he was connected with dynamiters
made with the sole intent to raise prejudice
against him. The magistrate said it was wrong
of the prosecution to intimate that Rogers was
quasi-cIiminal, and added that the demands OF
Justice would be med by binding the defendant
over TO keep the peace.

land In the interests of go, 900, 900 people We
demand evidence on this subject, if it exists.
Silence sometimes is golden, but silence now.
anywhere, in regard to the morality or immoral
ity of Grover Cleveland is high treason to the
honor, purity and integrity of the Nation Now
is the time of all others to tell the truth
and shame the devil If there is q man
earth who is authorized to speak
in regard to the morality of Grover
Cleveland, let him now make haste and come to
the front to tell the truth. If there is mortal
in existence who can show by evidence which
would be received in any petty court among the
Hottentots that thecunfessed debauchee, Grover
Cleveland, has repented and reformed, and that,
during his official career as mayor of Buffalo
and Governor of New York, he has lived pure
and temperate life, let that man now come forth
and tell the truth.
If this evidence is not forthcoming-evide
which does not consist of mere opinion, and
political opinion at that-then let every reader
of the Independent who is a clergyman tell the
truth as found in the Bible in regard to the sew
enth commandment, next Sabbath, to his people,
as the last public opportunity he will have,
probably, before election. Let him speak and
tell the truth, as becometh bold defender of
the household, against the disgusting and dis
graceful immoralties of Grover Cleveland.

POLITICAL NOTES.

How the Washington Democrats Secure
Funds for Campaign Use.
Special to the Indianapolis journal.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 24--While the Republican
committee is raising funds for campaign pnr-
poses by appeals to departmental employees for
liberal contributions the Democrats have
adopted a more unique method, which, while it
does not draw such large amounts, is said to pay
quite well. Nearly every milk dealer and huck-
ster in the city is provided with a supply of
tickets" which he sells to those of his custom
ers willing to aid the Democratic cause at the
small sum of twenty five cents. These tickets
can be framed and hung up in the parlor, and
may aid in securing the fortunate possesscr a
position when Cleveland comes in. 1t is sue
cessfu in one respect, at least The customer
dare not refuse lest he find that his milk vender
has diluted his tactical fluid to a greater extent
than usual, out of revenge for the insult.

LIGHT ON BEECHER.
Mr.. joys Michigan Friends DenOunce the
Brooklyn Preachers Story.

MIR. Joys Michigan Friends Denounce the
Brooklyn Preachers Story.
DETROIT, Oct 24-The story set afoat by
Henry Ward Beeeher about remarks alleged to
have been made by James f. Joy, of this city,
at dinner party given by him in September,
1877 concerning Mr.. Blaine, is looked upon as
of little importance by those who know Mr.. Joy
best None of the prominent citizens of Detroit
who were present at the dinner are willing to
indorse Mr. Beechers version l have inter
viewed five well-known citizens who were among
the party, and, while each declined 30 go into
details on the ground that the conversation of
private party at geDtleman's private residence
ought not to be repeated on the public streets,
all of them denounced Beecher's interpretation
of the conversation as erroneous Alfred Rus
sell, ono of the ablest lawyers in the State and
member Of the Democratic party, says it is
simply preposterous to suppose that if Mr.. Joy
believed Mr. Blaine to be corrupt or that he had
made such proposition as Beecher alleges he
would have consented 10 place his name before
the Chicago convention of 1850.
II have known Mr. joy intimately for years"
continued Mr. Russell. Il studied law an has
Office and know the standard by which he judges
public men. He is q man of positive opinions
aud the highest integrity Neither his honesty
nor biz veraeity are to be questioned and no
man who knows him will believe for "A moment
that if he had the slightest suspicion that Baine's
official career was tinctured with iobbery, that
he would use his official position to serve his per
sonal ends he would have given him the endorse
Inent he did in 1880"
Mr.. Russell declined to give the conversation as
he heard it and interpreted it, remarking that
Mr.. Joy will arrive in this country the latter
part Of the week and will, undoubtedly, speak
for himself in no uncertain sound
The story originally published in the De-
1noit News four or i've years ago and has been
rehashed in different ways several times since,
but has never attracted any attention and no inn
portanee is attached to Beecher's tale here in
Michigan, where Mr.. JOY is best known.

questions which we delight to answer
81. Why is it that the nations of Europe her
eminent scholars and statesmen desire the cleo
ton of Grover Cleveland as President of the
United States?"
Because the crowned heads of Europe wish the
government of the United States to fail into the
hands of the solid South.
- Why is it that the Republican party in
this campaign are making such an earnest Wig
orous fight97
Because the Republican party believes in ght-
ing the devil with fire
80. Why is it that Blaine was nominated by
the Republican party?"
Because, as James Harper, the proprietor of
Harper's Weekly remarked, no other man in
the United States is closer to the people than
James c. Blaine.

Because he never did own any such stock.

They Counsel Their Friends to Cast Their
Ballots for Blaine.
Bufalo On y Special
To-day the leading Prohibitionists of Buffalo,
including men who heretofore have been
Prohibition candidates for mayor and congress
man, with forty others, issued an address ITO
Prohibitionists, urging them to support Blaine,
chiefly on the ground of the moral influence ex-
erted by representative of virtuous domestic
life as opposed to the life of profigacy as
charged against the Democratic candidate The
address says;
1--WE all desire the triumph of the principles
of prohibition, but differ rs to Che measures
likely to secure it. To many of us at the present
time a national peohioitory movement seems
most undesirable. A great moral crisis con
fronts us. The only two candidates who have
possible chance Of election moral oppostes.
The influence of the domestic life of the Presi-
dent upon the morals OF the Nation, and es-
pecially upon the private habits and character of
our young men, is potent and farreaching. The
present contest is not only between the two
great political parties but also between essential
virtues which strengthen our Republic and the
family circle, and conformation of the vices
which would sap its foundation. Do not duty
and honor demand that we cast our whole in
6uenee against the Democratic represen tative
instead of wasting our votes upon a third party
candidate? Shall we be guiitless if we neglect
todo cur utmost to prevent his election TO the
presidency and save the Nation from public
diserace2n
