A RINGING commentary on the
effeteness of Texas election laws ex-
lists in the fact that we shall not know
anything definite of the result of the
election for State officers under thirty
days from the date of holding it. In
other States the vote is known the
day after the election, and in many
places on the night following.

The reports of the department OF
Agriculture show that the late crops
have suffered from drought and frost.
Nevertheless we will have enough for
the people of the United States to eat,
to wear and to smoke, and plenty to
spare to feed the hungry, clOthe the
naked and sOlace the restless of other
countries. Of cotton the crop will
fall little, if at all, short of the enOr-
nous productions of last year. Of 1885
corn we will have yield not very far
from two billions of bushels. We will
have to content ourselves with some
170,000,000 bushels of potatoes. and
need not go short of hot cakes at our
winter breakfasts until we have con-
sumed II 100000 bushels of buck

pounds of tobacco, we will have to apply

United States are big country of var

One of the simplest and most effect
ual means Of relieving pain is by the
use of hot water, externally and intern
ally, temperature being varied accord
ing to the feelings of the patient. For
bruises, sprains and similar hurts 1t
should be applied Immediately, as hot
as can be borne, by means OF cloth
dipped in water and laid on the wound
part, or by immersion if convenient,
and the treatment kept up until relief
is obtained. If applied at once, the use
of the hot water will generally prevent,
nearly, if not entirely, the bruised flesh
from turning black. For pains result
ing from Indigestion, ETC., a cup OF hot
water taken in sips will often relieve at
once. When that is not sufficient, a
flannel folded in several thickneSses,
large enough to cover the painful place
should be wrung out of hot water and
placed on the seat of pain. 1t should
be as hot as the skin can bear, without
injury, and renewed every ten minutes,
or oftener if it feels cool, until the pain
ID gone. The remedy is simple, efficient,
harmless and within the reach Of all
and should be more generally used than
it is. If used along with common sense
it might save many a doctor bill and
many a course of drug treatment.

Sad Scenes on Lord Kenmore's Estate-Whole
Families Turned Out the Roadside.
DUBLIN, May 14.-Heartrending details have
just reached here of the evictions on the estate
of Lord Kenmore, at Headford, near Killarney,
in the County Kerry. While he, as lord chamber
lain, is attending the Queen at the Liverpool
festivities and enjoying the good things of life
the sheriff and bailifrs, backed by ninety
policemen, have been turning out a large number
of his tenants of the poorest kind, who are I'M
deniably unable to pay anything, with the usual
concomitants Of sympathizng neghbors and
an exasperated people fighting the police. The
most aggravatng case is that of Jeremiah Cal
lahan, who had eight children, all under twelve
years of age, who. turned out on the roadside
cried and sorrowed so piteously as to move even
the police. The house was poor, old place, but
they knew it as their home. At another house,
that of woman named O'Conor, the occupant
was very i'll, and consultation was had, but it
was concluded she would not die. She was set
on the roadside, being removed in her bed
Owing TO the resistance there are only averaged
nine evictions per day. Lord Kenmore will soon
be evicted himself from the Ministry owing to
what he calls conscientious scruples against
the Gladstone measures"

THE PAYNE CASE.

A General Demand from Ohio that an In
vestigation BE Had.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, May 14.-Interest Is reviving
in the prospective investigation of the charges
preferred against United States Senator H. B.
Payne. Of Ohio. No action has yet been taken
by the Senate committee on privileges and cleo.
tons, which has tho charges before it, as the
members of the committee are reading the testi
mony taken in Ohio; but a meeting of the com
mittee will be held tomorrow, when action may
be taken. Meanwhile, moral as well as legal
support is accommodating and there is no doubt
that an investigation will finally be ordered by
the Senate It is very probable. too, as antici
pated in these dispatches, that an investigation
will be conducted at points in Ohio, after ad.
journment of Congress, as 1t is believed to be
inadvisable to begin 1t when everyone here is sd
deeply engaged in pending measures, and the
committee ought to 60 to, or as near the wit.
nesses as possible, as there will be many of
them, and the expense of having them come
here will be much greater than for a committee
going to them, not to mention the matter OF
their convenience. Quite number of let
ters have been received by members Of the
committee on privileges and elections from
reputable and influential citizens Of Ohio
not only assuring them of new and
important testimony to be offered but
demanding an investigation Many men have
sent or brought important verbal information.
and verbally demand that this affair, which ID
branded universally as highly scandalous, shall

from all parts of the State have been received

Our special and regular reports fully cover
the storm centers, particularly in Indiana.
Indianapolis has luckily escaped much dam
age, yet in this locality no inconsiderable
destruction has been worked by the high wa
ter in White river, Fall creek and other
streams. The meteorological conditions still
remain such as to render it uncertain when
the damage will cease, or how soon we may
fairly consider that we are out Of immediate
danger from the deadly war Of the elements
that has been raging SO furiously for the past
three days.

BoyCoTTING has been made criminal Of
Tense in New York since the effort to close
Mrs. Gray's bakery called attention to the
wrongs which the practice involved. In Mil
waukee the same excellent principle has been
put in operation. A German baker who
stationed himself before non-union shop to
distribute circulars, urging customers to dis
continue their patronage, was arrested, tried
and sentenced to sixty days in the House of
Correction. The judge in passing sentence,
remarked that boycotting was nothing less
than mob law, and the foundation Of the late
troubles, and had got to be stopped. Indianapolis
had the first opportunity to enforce the same
healthy sentiment, and to gain reputation
for protecting the rights of her citizens, but
failed to take advantage of it.

To a delegation of Washington Democrats
who called to urge the withdrawal of the NOM
ination of Matthews as recorder of the Dis
trict, on account of his color, President Cleve-
land is reported to have replied:
s'The reason is inadmissible. There are
nearly as many colored people as white ones
in this District. There are more colored than
white people in some Democratic States.
Those States are Democratic because the ne
groes have largely voted with the Democrats
You can't ask them to take some of the odium
and incur some of the danger of being Demo
Gratis, and then dem; them all official recog-
milton. The Republicans would like nothing
better than that. Democrats who ask me to
do that are short-sighted."
The President is frank in acknowledging
the fact that negro brings odium upon him
self when he becomes identified with the Dem
ocratic party; but in other respects his re-
marks show less simplicity and truthfulness
If, for instance, he will kindly name those
States which are Democratic because of negro
votes he will confer favor on wondering
world. 1t is the generally accepted opinion
that the States in which negroes form large
part of the population are Democratic because
the colored citizens do not vote, or, voting are
counted out" Certain historical events in
Virginia and elsewhere have encouraged be-
lief, also, that the black man encounters his
greatest danger in the regions referred to
when he attempts to vote Republican ticket
Perhaps the President has had new light on
the matter-Pan-electric light possibly-out
it would be only matter of justice that he
should allow the public to share in his now ex.
elusive information.
In this connection, too, it may not be i'm
pertinent to inquire why colored Democrat
from New York, State which is compare
lively safe for a negro of any party, should be
rewarded because Of the dangers which his
brethren in other States are said to have in
Cured No one but a Democrat objects to
the appointment Of a colored recorder for the
District; but, irrespective of party, inquisitive
people would like to know why this particular
one was chosen if the purpose was solely to
encourage the "Afro-American" Of the
South

somewhat less violent and destructive than in
Ohio and westward. To the lay mind it
would seem that condition of the atmos-
phere must have existed during this period
which would have indicated to the Weather
Bureau the probability of food and hurricane;
but if the signal-service officials had any
advance information on the subject, they
carefully kept it to themselves. In an emer-
gency the scientific weather mans indications
are no more to be relied upon than the old
farmers signs

THE experience Mr.. Jean Baptiste Maurice
du Coettosquet is likely to have in getting his
money will teach holders of Indiana bonds to
evy on the State at the earliest possible
moment after the claims become payable. 1t
is gratifying to reflect that Mr.. Coettosquets
confidence in Indiana's honesty and solvency
was so great that he made no demand for pay
ment until twenty years after the bonds were
due; but at the same time, it must be ad-
mitted that even in this honest and upright
State there is rnany slip between note and
the cash, and commercial faith may be carried
too far
