THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
Mr.. Evarts' Glowing PredictiOn-Aft-
Defeat VIII Come victory.

In q speech at New York, Mr..
Evarts congratulated the Republi
cans that the Senate was yet theirs.
1t was, fortunately, we'll armed and
defended in constitutional power to
hold in check the national executive
and lower house. He said: II be-
lieve that the Republican party in
heart and soul, in purpose and in
principle, and in the array of power,
is substantially of the same make up
as it was in 1860, when first it laid
its hands on the government of the
United States, and if | could doubt
the justice of this judgment should
be confirmed in it when l turn to
look at the Democratic party, and
see it the same in heart and soul, in
purpose and in principle as in 1860.
In body and strength it is composed
of the Southern States, with a con
tingent and casual fragment picked
up from the sturdy loyal people of
the Northern States. Indeed, in
political organization, the Democrat
ic party as now brought into power
is worse ad justed in its relations be-
tween the North and South than it
was in 1860, ] believe that when
We shall next eater the contest for
the conduct of the Government we
are as sqrp as that election day shall
come around that both in New York
and the country at large the Repub-
lican party will be reinstated in
power, and then we shall have settled
forever that odious and dangerous
element that has disturbed us for 40
years--a solid South. believe that
II the disturbing influences are re-
moved, qqeetions looking towards
the DaqrishmeHt At our industries
will have proper attention, and all
the heresies which though they
shake, cannot shatter our country
will yet be done away with M,

NO EXTRA SESSION.

Members of the Appropriations
Committee express the opinion that
it will be possible to pass all the ap

be no extra session. "There never
has been any danger of an extra

always hear the same sort of talk

A Tennessee Congressman who
saw Cleveland is quoted as saying,
81 think, Governor, that the quicker
YOU begin filling the offices with
Democrats the better" To this
Cleveland replied: 81 fear there will
be some disappointment about that.
You know that we are greatly IN

that our party is pledged to civil

nessean reached Washington he
said to bis friends: "Gentlemen,

RIOTOUS MINERS.
Lawless Demonstrations at Lock
port and Joliet, Ill.
The Governor Requested to Order Out
Troops.
RIoToUs MINERS.

JOLIET, ILL.,, April 1.-THE strike of the
quarrymen, which has extended to all the pits
ia this vicinity, is becoming serious. This af-
ternoon 450 of the strikers from Joliet, Lock
port and Lemont met near Lockport, armed
with clubs and revolvers. The boiler house
OF the Fiddyment quarry was entered by the
strikers, who smashed the boilers and pumps
doing damage to the extent of $1,000. One Of
the bosses, armed with a revolver, attempted
to drive the strikers from the quarry, but was
fired upon by the rioters and with difficulty
escaped to the woods. The strikers then
Daraded up and down the streets of Lockport,
giving vent to threats and cheers. Meeting
some of the bosses, riot followed, during
which Mr.. Fiddyment, quarry owner, was
severely beaten. The mob then proceeded to
Joliet. After raiding another quarry and
driving away the workmen there, they dis
persed at the order of the sheriff. The men
talk very violently and serious trouble ia anti
cipated. Gov. Oglesby was requested to order
out the troops, but refused. Public sympathy
is with the men, as the wages offered by the
companies of $1.25 per day are generally con-
sidered too low.

ADown East Rear story.

Jacob Mann and Samuel Gilmore of Holden
went on hunting expedition, each with gun,
but only one dog, and he not much of a bear
killer. Soon after reaching the woods they
were surprised to see the dog running toward
them at his best speed and large bear in pur-
suit The dog ran directly for its master, for
safety, while the bear, intent only on reaching
the dog, did not see the man, and ran with
such force against him as to throw him down.
1t stood astride of him, fighting the dog, which
would not leave its master. Gilmore ran to
Mann's assistance, but the only response that
he could coax from his gun was "fiash in the
pan," the powder being wet. Mann succeeded
in securing his gun, which had fallen beneath
him, when the bear leaped upon him. He
discharged its contents into the bears body
and leaped up, somewhat scratched and cov-
cred with cold sweat.

Representative j. Henry Shaw of Beardstown,
Cass county, was found dead in his room in
the Palace Hotel here. When found he bad
been dead several hours. He had been an un-
swerving Democrat and thus there occurs an
other break in the ranks OF that party. This
makes the third death during the session,
something which never before occurred. It
was anticipated that upon Senator Davis from
Greene county assuming the office something
tangible would be done in relation to the Q. S.
Senato-ship question, but this unexpected oc-
currenoe will again throw it ,bsck for twenty
days at least What makes the situation worse
is il leaves the House tie upon any question

thus retards business. The Governor will be
requested to issue the writ Immediately for q
