SUDDEN DEATH.
David p. Eason Dies Suddenly Of Apo
plexY al Nason's Camp.


Yesterday forenoon the I0:45 train on the
Newaygo branch of the Chicago 4 West
Michigan Railway brought to this city the
last remains of David r. Eason, who died
suddenly at Nason's Camp, Muskegon
County, Thursday evening. Mr.. Eason for
the last fifteen years has been in the employ
Of Charles F. Mason, a prominent lumber
dealer of this city, and at the time Of his
death was employed in the business Office
connected with Mr.. Nason's mill and
camp near Trent Station. He was
left in the Office alone, and In
seemingly good spirits for a short time,
when Mr.. Mason returned and found him
lying upon the floor in an unconscious con-
dition. This was about 8 o'clock in the even
ing, and, despite all efforts of Mr. Mason,
two doctors and friends, the stricken man
lived but five hours from the time his con-
dition was discovered. Upon their arrival
here his remains were taken to his residence,
North Colt avenue, just beyond the city lin
its, and DIR. Hake and Coroner Bradish were
summoned by telephone. These gentlemen,
after an examination, give it as their opinion
that Mr. Eason died of apoplexy.
David p. Eason is man we'll and
highly esteemed in this city; a man Of fine
business qualities and prominent in frater-
nifty and social circles. He had been in the
employ of Mr.. Mason nearly fifteen years as
a manager and confidential adviser in his
lumber operations. He is about forty five
years of age and leaves wife and three chill

EDITORIAL COMMENT.


INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Sep. 20.-Col-
onel Holloway will say editorially in
his paper, the Times, in the morning,
as follows:
The letter of Mr.. Blaine, giving
the details Ofhis marriage, is straight
forward and manly document, and,
together with the answers to the in.
terrogatories filed yesterday, will put
to rOut his c0wardly slanderers.
What becomes now of the SenfneES
Wanted bill of discovery? What
becomes now of its boasts that it has
abundance of evidence to sustain its
charges?
No language is adequate to describe
the villainIy of the sentinel in this
matter. Every issue since it first
published the libel has been added to
its infancy, 1t has sough all over
Kentucky for witnesses to sustain its
Islander. 1t has turned loose a host
of spies and detectives, but has not
been able to find witness, but day
after day has boosted of its ability to
prove its case. Mr.. Blaine, in his
manly statement, will win the respect
of every decent man and woman in
the land.
The following extracts from an ed
itorial which will appear in to.mor-
rows Journal voices the sentiment
of this entire community and State :
The case is made up by the reply
of Mr.. Blaine, and the country, which
is the court in which the case was
brought by his libelers, has all the
facts before 1t. The verdict of the
people in such matter is higher and
beyond any result that could be reach
ed in court of law.
Mr.. Blaine said in his telegram
when he first saw the Sentinel article :
"The story is utterly and abOmina-
BILE false in every statement and in lis
every implication" In the light of
the answer of Mr.. Blaine, concealing
nothing Ofthe secret marriage, who
will say that the libel is not just what
he characterized ito Where is the
slightest indication of seduction ?
Where is the remOtnst suggestion of
forced marriage? The answer is
complete, and disposes of the sun
speakabIe outrage" as we have be-
fore said, to the gratified satisfaction
of ev, ry decent and respectable per-
son. But the unutterahle infamy of
the libel still remains, AMI it must be
rebuked by the fathers, husbands,
brothers and sons who prospect woman
ly virtue, who honor wifehood and
motherhood, and who believe in the
sanctity of home. View the case in
any aspect you please, and the only
epithet is that used by Mr.. Blaine
ian unspeakable outrage"

An IriShman'S Reason for Supporting
the "Plumed Knight"

CHICAGO, Sept. 12.-Congressman
Finerty, of this city, in an article in
his paper. Citizen. this week. says
that, without surrendering a princi-
pie that he has held. without accept
ing any party "collar," without aban-
doning the people who elected him.
on the ground of American citizen
ship and American glory he declares
his preference for Blaine. He de-
clares against Cleveland because he
has proved himself the enemy of
Workingman, the ally of monopoIists,
the self-constituted judge Of the con.
stitutionality OF measures intended
to benefit the people, the bare-faced
dodger Of the vital question of Pro-
lection to American industries and
the champion of foreign interests
on this continent.
Mr.. Finerty says he "will never be
found voting for any dubious Amer
lean who has thesuppOrt of the Times.
the Telegraph, the STANDARD and the
Ne,CS. of London" He supports
Blaine ''because, in declaring openly
for Protection against Europe and
free commerce with American neigh
bOrs on and below our Southern from
tier he advocates that true American
policy, and the only one, by which
this country can not only remain
great, free ard prosperous, but also
by which she can spread her influence
on the two cis-AtIantic continents
and maintain the letter of that Mon
roe doctrine, which says to Europe,
Hands Off and of which Blaine is
the truest and most gifted living ex-
ponent. With him at the head of the
Nation there would be no fear that
the Panama canal should degenerate
into European waterway"
Mr.. Finerty further supports Blaine
"because of his vigorous foreign poll
cy, a policy that the traglcal ehd OF
President Garfield curbed before it
had attained developement." He
also supports Blaine "because Eng
land abhOrs him, and because his
election, although he is not fire.
brand or a promoter of Unnecessary
warfare, would he slap in her face"
Finally, Mr.. Finerty declares against
Grover Cleveland "because his NOM
ination by the Democrats was di-
rect insult, and so intended, TO the
back bone of the Democratic party
north of the Ohio, and challenge to
the manhood and the political cour-
age of every American of whatever
race, who earns his livelihood by
honest labor"
