MINERS CRUSHED TO DEATH.
Four Men Killed and Six Badly Injured
While Descending Wilkes
barre Shaft.
rwilkesbarre special

At the lakewood shaft. just outside the
city limits, the property of the Lehigh
Valley Coal Company, the men employed
in the mine were going down the shaft on
the carriage, as usual, to their work, at 7
o'clock this morning. The shaft is eight
hundred feet deep aud ten men are let down
at time. A cage load was descending,
aud had almost reached the foot Of
the shaft, when rafting sound was
heard overhead. and Immediately after
large rock crashed through
the sheet-iron covering of the carriage,
killing three of the men outright aud so
fearfully injuring another that he died
shortly after being taken to the hospital.
Several others were slightly injured. The
names of the killed are: John j. Martin,
a miner. aged about 80. unmarried, and
living with his widowed mother in this
city. james Kearney, a laborer. aged
about %, unmarried. John Peterson, q
miner, aged about &C. married, and living
at Parsons. Thomas Jenkins. latorer,s
about % years old, single, and living at
Miners Mills.
Those injured are: Patrick Smith,
bruised inside and on the back; Patrick
Pursell. slightly cut in the back; Tatrick
Kearney, slightly bruised in the hip and on
the TlBHt leg DelOW INC knee. ne INST
named gives the following description of
the accident: "Going down the shaft, was
standing almost precisely upon the place
where the hole was broken through the
roof of the cage by the piece of rock. but
when heard the noise of the rock coming
down against the side Of the shaft above.
and the smaller pieces striking the roof,
somehow stepped to the center and under
the cross-beam which supports the
roof. The others were running back
and forth to find place of safety,
and all knew what the sound meant The
position saved me, rs pieces of the rock
struck the roof and crashed down through
on the other side. My lamp was put out.
and as the carriage struck bottom made
step and went into the hole that had been
broken in the floor. One OF the smaller
pieces of the stone hit my hip. / got out
of the place and half fell off into the gang
way. My presence Of mind had not de-
serted me, and my first thought was for my
brother Jim. / called to him but there was
no answer. Then we searched the wreck.
found the bodies of the others all mangled
and bleeding. and finally Jim, his feet on
the edge of the carriage and his body and
head lying over the edge in the water OF
the stump, dead.

THEY ARE GOING.
Cattlemen Removing Their Herds from In
dian Territory--The Fences
Must Come Down.
Washington special


All the official information received at
Washington indicates that tho cattlemen
have done oil In thoir power 10 get out of
the Indian Territory during the forty days
ending Sept. ]. Unofficial advices intimate
that the larger lease holders have not pur-
sued this course, but have. on the contrary,
prepared to stubbornly resist the enforce
ment of the Presidents proclamation. The
latter statements are not credited. 1t is
thought at the Interior and War Depart
ments that the cattlemen are fully aware OF
the determination and ability of the Gov
eminent to execute its orders. Whatever
contest may be made in the courts they say
will have to follow the evacuation. No
legal proceedings will stay the troops if
called upon to eject the herds and their at
tendants Col. Leo has not informed the
War Department of any necessity for mill
tary Interference, but Gen. Miles has fully
prepared TO render whatever aid is required.
The fence question cannot reach so
prompt solution. The cases of obstruc-
lions are now being individually investigat-
ed and reported upon and the offenders no.
tilted. The next step will probably be an
Executive order directing the military au-
thoritics to act under the direction of the
Interior Department in removing whatever
fences the latter department may designate.
1t is not the intention of the Secretary of
the Interior 10 issue any general order in
regard to the removal of fences from the
public lands, but il has been determined
TO deal with cases of violation of the law
specifically. 1t is believed better re-
suits will be thus obtained than from
the general order, which would be
looked upon as a proclamation binding
upon no one in particular. The special
agents Of the Land Office are under in
-. a., a. IL
cases OF illegal fencing. and instructions
looking to the removal of the fences Are
promptly furnished for their guidance in
each case. Where an agent is able TO effect
the removal lie is directed TO do SO, and
when necessary the United States Marshals
can be called upon through the Attorney
General.

THE balm of Gilead. administered by
Hon. John Sherman, is o nauseous
dose to those superfne and sensitive
souls who cannot bear to be told that
there was any principle involved in the
late war, and who rush with eager
haste, hat in hand, to welcome to
power the men who sing the praises of
Jefferson Davis in the United States
Senate. We feared this would be the
case. One of our esteemed contempora-
ries is puzzled in its little heart to know
whether Mr.. Sherman or the Repub-
lican party is going to seed, while still
another mournfully remarks that "those
who looked for q statesmanlike utter
ance from Senator Sherman will have
to turn away from his Mount Gilead
speech with the reflection that there is
no balm for the people, no physician
for the party" This is intensely sad:
yet the fact is that Mr.. Sherman made his
speech for full-grown men toread-men
who have backbone, and are not afraid to
say that the spirit that eulogizes Jeffer-
son Davis in the United States Senate,
and which lowers the national flag to
half-mast over public buildings at the
death OF despicable traitor and scoun
drel like Jacob Thompson. is not one to
be encouraged If the future of free gov
eminent is to be conserved. Mr.. Sher-
man appeals to the men OF the country,
not to the manikins. indianapolis

THE COLORED VOTE.
Reasons Why the Negroes Should support
the Republican Party,

indianapolis Colored World.
Upon what issue shall they divide :?
Why should the negro ignore all prin-
ciples of Justice and honor, and support
parties and measures whose tenets and
leaders have ever been, are now, and
from the outlook ever will be opposed
to our enjoyment of equal civil and
political rights? 1t has been under
the guidance and fostering care of
the Republican party that the transfer
nation in the status of the negro during
the past twenty-five years has taken
place, with no small part of the credit
accruing to the negro himself. 1t may
not be all that we desired, but from
what party could we have gained more |?
All opposition to our citizenship. to the
amendments guaranteeing our rights,
came from without the Republican
party, notably from the Democratic
party, and to-day this Same organiza-
ton with whom some of our people,
with more advanced ideas, are anxious
40 divide" are as bitterly opposed to
the negro as ever Is it because we
are no longer slaves of any polit-
zeal party, and are freemen, that it is
necessary in order that We should es-
tablish or promulgate the fact that we
are free to the world, and to satisfy
ourselves of the truth OF the same, that
we should sacrifice our principles, vote
against what we honestly believe to be
right; sacrifice our political ally, and
try a cold experiment which has not
one single virtue to recommend it, or
promise that it has ever made TO en-
courage our people to lend it their aid
and support.
There are few individual instances
of reward bestowed upon colored men
for services rendered in their efforts at
division" but, like all contracts of the
kind, obligation ceased when the goods
were delivered. "The Democratic party
never has and never will court the ne
gro as an ally" has been truly said by
O prominent member of that party. "If
we can use him we will do it; but
his place is in the Republican
ranks, and he can be trusted no.
where else" 1t is our duty to sup
port that party whose principles are
nearest in accord with our own. Or, If
we desire to support the party that
gives us the Largest recognition" GER
tainly it is the Republican party. Shall
we divide just for the sake of expert
menting? Is there any issue upon
which we may differ among ourselves,
honestly, that our race may be benefit
ed by the division? Until q better
party than the Republican presents
itself for our suffrages, we had better
bear the i'll of which we complain than
to fly to another known to be far worse.
