FATE OF THE ANARCHISTS.
The long trial of the Ana: clists in
Chicago ended o.. Friday last and the
verdict of the jury is rs follows:
We, the jury, find defendants, An
gnst Spies, Michael Scbwab, Samuel
Fiel'len, Albert r. Parsons, Adolph
Fischer, George E"gel and Louis Lingg
GUILTY or MURDER AS CHARGED IN
TIE INDICTMENT, AND FIX THE
PENALTY AT DEATH.
We find Oscar w. Neebe guilty of
murder in the manner and form rs
charged in the indictment, and fix the
penalty ut Imprisonment in the peni
Tertiary 1T fifteen years.
We condemn in as strong terms us
possible the Anarchist movement in
this country, bat we believe firmly
chat the hanging Of these men will
curse Chicago and breed Anarchists by
the hundred. If ever a conflict comes
between the people and the govern.
ments, these men will be held up as
martyrs.

The Luverne Times says of the Her
aid attacks upon Mr.. Crosby:

aid attacks upon Mr.. Crosby:
If Mr.. Crosby sold the second con-
gressional district 1T the Chicago con.
vention of June. 1854, how came this
journal that never hesitntes" in the
exposal of wrong doing, to endorse so
bad i man for state senator at the JAN
uary session of the legislature follow
ing? If Mr.. q. did sell his vote. for
such is the implied charge. how came
1t this faithful monitor, now lecturing
its fellows on ''djshonest journalism"
sounded not a warning word? In its
diatribe upon Journalism the Herald
chooses to say:
"A newspaper whose management is
characterized by persistent DISPOSE
tion to misrepresent and mislead must
necessarily work irreparable injury to
the community in which it lives, and
eventually reap disaster"
A community may be as much mis-
led by silence as by utterance, by indi-
rection as by positive assertion, by a
failure to warn rs by sounding false
note, and if the Times is not mistaken
the editor Of the Herald writes his own
condemnation in his own words. Here
by his own telling is a man guilty of
gross and scandalous misconduct,
"ulcH t!o AAoA"u NV Ouy leAuSSu W
expose, but actually endorsed and &C
cepted as its own by supporting him in
the senate after his perfidy as a dele
gate. According to the Herald s con-
fession it covered up the wrong doing
and thus became 4 partner in the crime
it now claims credit for exposing. Yet
with q strange eftrOntery it lectures its
brethren on dishonest journalism" :"
In'the language Of Madam Roland we
exclaim: "Oh liberty, what crimes
have been rerpetrated in thy name!'
And that rotten republicanism should
affect honesty and virtue is perhaps
not more singular. The public mind
will naturally conclude the Herald is
influenced in its attack upon Mr.. Cros.
by more from personal motives than
for the public good. It is personal
quarrel, in which the public have no
concern, and the truth of the charges
made is impeached by the silence Of
the past, for a journal that would COW
or a crime for a purpose might deal in
falsehoods for similar reason. Mr..
Crosby is not likely to be injured by
such line of attack from, an accom-
plice.
The shooting of Gen. Augnr, in
Washington, by negro who had been
par'loned out Of penitentiary, furnishes
strong argument against the careless
use of the pardoning power. A very
large percentage of the pardoned con-
victs immediately renew their criminal
oareers.-Pioneer. Press.
A very large percentage of released
eonvicts join the great army of tramps
ting all manner of crimes. from petty
larceny to rape, and in some cases
committing unnameable outrages upor
innocent victims. The professional
tramp should be considered crimina
and so treated.

THE DELE0ATE&

..-
Elsewhere We publish the proceed:
ings of the county convention held on
Monday. Delegates we're selected to
attend the Senatorial convention at
Fulda tomorrow, the Representative
convention to be held at the same place
one week later. and the State conven-
tion at St. Paul September 22d. The
delegates 80 uEinstructed and we are
sure that no man living can claim any
one of the delegations in his interest.
It is already reported that the Senator
ial delegation is in the interest of one
of the candidates but we wish to say
what we know. viz: that this is not
so. If any candidate claims this dele
CATION rs his own, tell him he is reck-
oning without his host. and that he
will likely see his folly when he comes
into the convention.
The delegation to the Representative
convention is especially free and un-
trammeled as there was no effort in
the interest of any candidate when the
delegation was selected.
AS to the delegates to the State con-
vention, we understand their personal
preferences are divided and not espec-
tally strong or set in either case.
Another matter. Some feeling was
manifest after the convention, as
there is apt to he, and false reports
will go abroad. If any one says WOr-
thington is divided against herself, or
that there is break in the republican
ranks, tell him it is not so. The con-
vention did not in every case 60 to
s"it leading republicans, but that is
no reason for illfetling or discord.

Uncle Dick Saulter says: Fifty years
ago had running ulcer on my leg which
refused to heal under any treatment. In
1853 went to California and remained
eighteen months, and in 1878 visited Hot
Springs, Ark, remaining three months, but
was not cured. Amputation was discussed,
but concluded to make one more effort.

weeks ago. The ffty-year-old sore on my

B, B. B. could not walk exceeding half a
mile. sleep soundly at night for the first
time in many years. To think that six bot.
ties have done me more good than Hot
Springs, eighteen months in California,
besides an immense amount of medicines
and eight or ten first,class physicians, will
convince any man on earth that it is a
wonderful blood medicine. 1t has also,
cured me of catarrh.

To the Standard:
We are having nice weather now
since the last refreshingshower which
was hailed with delight, as the ground
was getting dry and vegetation was
suffering for want of rain.
Farmers are complaining of bad
stands Of corn. Some are having to
plant the third time. Cut worms are
said to be very bad. Pastures are
generally looking very well. Wheat
looks very well, and oats are inn
proving.
There will be a failure in the peach
crop, but we will have apples and
other fruit.
People are much discouraged, as
the only thing that most Of them
have to sell is corn, and it is worth
but little. Feeding corn worth 80
cents to make corn worth now about
40 cents, don't pay very much on the
investment.
Young clover and grass look well.
Several mules and some horses in
this section have had something like
inflammation Of the kidneys. They
seem to be stiff in the hind legs and
will not lie down. None of the cases
so far have proved fatal. Mr.. Rams
Martin lost a fine mule sometime
ago with some disease somewhat
similar to sweeney.
We are now troubled with musqui-
toes, but they are not so bad as they
were sometime ago.
Now if the candidates all come to
see us us, how can we live? Can we
afford to be troubled with them both
at the same time? Oh, deliver us!
But the mosquitoes will soon, we
hope, go back to the swamps, and
next August the candidates, who are
unsuccessful, will go up salt river.

IN RESPECT to the number Of
churches represented and visitors pres
ent, attendance and interest Of the
local church, financial outcome, bust
ness methods and the high character
of the special addresses-the Illinois
Convention held last week must be de-
clared a success. The report which we
give this week, filling many columns,
will attest this even to the general
reader. The Convention was in the
line of direct advance; it enlisted
the attention of the people beyond
those Of several previous years. And
already it bears fruit in the more de-
cided inspiration and encouragement of
the churches and wider apprehension
of the needs of UNCONVENTIONAL work
among our parishes. The good work
outlined in Chicago will continue dur
ing the year. The Convention has the
sympathy and cooperation OF the peo-
pie in this hour to degree not reached
in any former year.

IN view Of the meeting of the Amer
lean Board, at Des Moines, this week,
the Tribune remarks: IF the doctrine
of the Andover school prevail, that
there is a probation after death and
that those who have not heard of Christ
or his teachings Chinese, Hindoos,
Japanese, and Mohammedans, for in
stance, and in fact three-quarters of the
human race-will all the same be en-
lightened and ultimately saved, then it
is only reasonable to argue, either that
there is more need to send missiOna-
ries for material than for spiritual sal
walton, or that the expense of sending
missionaries may be very materially re-
duced for, if the heather are to be
saved after all, what is the use Of send
ing missionaries to convert them Why
not save the money for work nearer
home !? This point might be pressed
still further. If the heather are to be
saved, why should missionaries be sent
to them to place them in danger of not
being saved by being converted ? If
we understand the Fundamental doc
trines rightly both the old and the new
school admit that after a person is
saved he may fall and be lost. Why,
then, should the heather and Moham-
medan be placed in jeopardy of their
souls ?''

THE ladies of the Akron parish are
known for their hospitality and will do
their best to provide for all who attend
the General Convention. But to feed
and lodge the great number likely to be
present, is no small matter. 1t is sug-
gested that the friends living in the
vicinity of Akron may prefer to bring
provisions and take their meals in the
church dining rooms. We are author
lied to say that tea and coffee will be
furnished such; also that the convenient
cooking utensils of the church will be
at their service. Assistance of this
kind will be duly appreciated by the
Akron friends, but no one should feel
required to do this unless they desire
to thus provide for themselves.
