The Bmtler Case.

The case against Thomas Butler which
was continued until to-day at 10 O'Clock
was once more put off until ! o'clock,
owing to the absence OF some important
witnesses. The prospects are, however,
that when the examination gets in work
ing order, there will be little trouble in
cinChing the defendant. A story is told
Of how he won his second wife which eX-
hibits contract out OF the usual run OF
love plights. 1t seems that the girl
had for long time received the
attentions OF poor but honest" youth,
who, naturally enough, wanted her to
share his poverty. The girl, sensibly
enough, did not see the point, but she
chung to the lover in hopes that he would
get the capital prize in lottery drawing
or become suddenly rich in some other
way. Before tine streak OF luck struck
the youth the fair siren met the bump
tious Butler, and allowed him to pour
into her willing ear the tales of his vast
wealth. He told her OF the shoes, hosiery,
stove lids and boot-jacks, good as new,
stored away in his secondhand shop, and
finally offered to buy her piano ii she
would be his. This settled it. She told
her youthful adorer that she could
"nevah, nevah, marry % poor man."
She was soon after married to the Wander
biltian Butler, and the discords she per-
petrated upon the piano are the only ones
that have marred the harmony OF the
household

The surviving members of the Utah Com
mission having learned on yesterday even
ing of the death of our beloved colleague,

of over four years of public service.

the residence of Mrs. Pettigrew's parents, to
whom he was greatly attached, on Sunday,
the 18th inst, and was buried at Fayette-
vile, Arkansas, on the 2lst inst, with all
the honors and solemn ceremonies that are
due to gallant soldier, without fear and
without reproach; an able and public spir-
tied citizen and a kind and loving husband
and father.
Resolved, That we tender to the bereaved
widow and children of our beloved comrade,
our deepest sympathy for their irreparable
loss, knowing, as we do, what Il wealth of
affection he cherished for them.
Resolved, That the Commission rooms be
draped in mourning for thirty days.
Resolved That the secretary be directed

CROP PROSP ECTS.

The farmers of Augusta county are to
be congratulated on the splendid promise
of their growing crops. Never before has
our lovely country showed to better al
vantage than now, and the indications are
that business will in short time be more
active than for some years past. The
Wheat crop is unusually good and will
make up for the total failure of last
year. Grass, always paying crop in any
way used. is looking well, and corn has
startled off in a way that indicates heavy
yield. The farmer toiling in his field does
not realize his Importance as factor
in national wealth and prosperity. The
long lines of railroads spanning the CONT
nent are dependent on the farmers toll
for freights, and without freights no divi-
dends will find their way into the pockets
OF millionaire stockholders. Every business
depends for success OF the toll and labor
of those who bring from the bosom of
mother earth her treasures OF fruit and
grain. That the farmer once more seems
to be On the road Of prosperity is mat
ter of public congratulations, and we
hope no untimely accidents will befall the
present good prospects.

The change of schedule on the Valley
Railroad has resulted in universal dissa-
tisfaction among the travelling public. 1t
may be good enough for passengers going
to the Virginia springs from Northern
cities. but it seems to us that the local
travel is entitled to some consideration at
the hands of the railroad company. Staun,
ton. under the new schedule, is virtually
cut off from day travel to places further
down the Valley, and the business man
going to Harrisonburg is compelled to
spend two nights there. We hope the rail
road company will see its way clear to re-
store us our old schedule, or at least run
the day passenger train, which now stops
at Harr hsonburg, on to Staunton.

The metropolitan newspapers state that
President Cleveland is at Deer Park in a
state of siege, surrounded by an army of
newspaper men. Though the first week of

Manning consented to do SO, and last Satur-
day, accompanied by his wife and few
friends, went to the Virginia Hot Springs,
where he will remain for some weeks. There
seems to be, however, little ground for behev-
ing he will ever resume his duties, and there
is a good deal of gossip concerning his pro-
bable successor. The names most prominent
ly mentioned are Assistant Secretary Fair
child, Congressman W. L. Scott, of Pennsyl-
yania, and ex-senator Davis, of West VIZ
ginia.
THE BUSINESS OF CONGRESS
is sadly behind. There are very many I'M
portant measures clamoring for attention
very few of which can be reached. For sew
eral days the chairmen of the House commit
tees have been in consultation together WIFI

considered, and arrange programme for TIT
remainder of the session. 1t is the genera
opinion that Congress Will not adjourn muci
earlier than the 1st of August.

FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE. IL. 1886.
THE ADMINISTRATION.

Now that the Administration of Presi-
dent Cleveland has well entered upon the
second year of it's existence it may be pro-
6table to compare the present condition
of the South with the state of affairs that
prevailed here during the ascendancy of
the Republican party.
1t is true that the depression in bust.
ness during the last two years of Presi-
dent Arthur's reign still continues and
has been perhaps augmented in manufac-
turing sections by labor troubles, and
these disturbances have as matter of
course affected the prosperity of the South
ern States, but to much less degree than
that of the States North of Mason and
Dixon's line.
The laws of revenue and finance now in
force are those fastened on the country
by the Republican party, and if leglsla-
ton promotes or destroys the prosperity
of nations, then the blame of all our
troubles must be laid at the door of the
party which formulated and passed every
present law relating to our finances, trade
and commerce. However. the purpose OF
this article is not to discuss so much the
present condition of business affairs South.
rs those matters 1fseindlvidual rights,
liberties, and recognition of our people as
being integral parts OF the American
Union, which are privileges dearer to the
self-respecting of every land than unlimi-
ted wealth without them.
The election of Grover Cleveland to
the Presidency of the United States sound
ed the death-knell of sectionalism in
American politics, and from the day of
his Inauguration to the present the mem
cries of war and reconstruction have
faded so fast that only few irreconcilables
remain to proclaim for their own selfish
purposes the long estrangement between
the sections of one great country. TIE
Southern people who contributed so much
to his election find in the Presidents wise
and conservative policy the best vindica-
tion of their political cause. -Four Presl-
dents in thorough accord with the Re
publican party have occupied the White
House since the days of Andrew Johnson
Each with his own peculiar policy toward
the South, all failed to do aught towards
healing the wounds Of civil strife. The
trouble was too. much "policy," too
much interference with Democratic
affairs, and consequently each successive
President saw his plans end in miserable
failure.
By treating the citizens of Vjrgini.
precisely like those of New York the
President cut the Gordian knot of the
Southern problem. To-day the Exon
federates who charged with Pickett a
Gettysburg, occupy places of honor and
trust under the government. by the side
of Union veterans who fought under the
banner of the lamented Hancock, equally
honored and respected. And why should
it not be so 2 Is not the South Car0linian

of honor and trust as the man from Mas

THE COMING CAMPAIGN.

SIN time of peace prepare for war, is
maxim no less true in politics than IL
real strife. And with this saying as our
text we desire to speak few word of ad-
vice to the Democrats of the 10Th Con-
gressional district and particularly those
of Stanton and Augusta. This fall
new House of Representatives is to be
elected, and it is all important that, ike
the present House, it should be Demo-
cratic.
The question of President Cleyeland's
administration SO far will enter largely
into the campaign, and the result will be
verdict either for or against the party
now in power as regards its conduct Of
public affairs. We have reason to be-
lieve that the Republicans will make
another desperate effort to wrest the 10th
Virginia district from the Democratic
column. and to prevent any such catas-
trophe is the supreme duty of every Dem
ocrat in it. The VINDICAToR as a news
paper does not advocate any mans claims
for the congressional nomination, though
as an individual we have our choice.
We trust and believe that the Lexing-
ton Convention will nominate that man
who is most certain to carry the district,
and then it will be the duty of all good
Democrats TO see That the nominee Of his
party is not defeated. The distribution
Of Federal patronage has necessarily
brought disappointment to some. No
party has Offices enough to supply places
for all applicants, and no doubt many de-
serving men have been keenly disappoint--
ed. But we are sure such considerations
as these will not drive good party men
from the triumphant Democracy at this
luncture. A sense of justice pervades
parties just as it does inviduals, and merit
sooner or later be recognized and reward
ed by any political party. We earnestly
counsel all good Democrats to put aside
any personal feeling of disappoint-
ment In order that the party may have
she full measure of your services, The
Democratic party will not have walk.
over either in State or Nation this time.
Now more than ever we need haartv
corporation among ourselves; with
it We are invincible, without it disaster
will surely overtake us.
We are glad to see chat President Gle
velanf refused to accept the rendered re-.
sfgnation of Secretary Manning, but ave-
him leave of absence until the 1st of Oc-
tobar. Mr.. Manning and his charming
wife are at the Warm Springs, Bath
county, whose healing waters we hone
will completely restore his failing health
No Secretary of the Treasury has given
more general satisfaction than Mr.. Man
ming, and his place would be hard 10 fill.
