AFTER THE LABOR VOTE.

1t is said that Mr.. BLAINE is now devel-
oping well-matured plan whereby he hopes
to capture the labor vote, and hold its en-
thusiastic support two years from now.
But Mr. BLAINE neglects one vital factor.
He does not give the workingmen of the
country, and particularly of the West,
credit for the great amount of intelligence
they undoubtedly possess. Phey are not
likely to be very ardent in support of mar
who believes in taxing every article of
clothing they wear and nearly every article
OF food they eat for the benefit of a few
wealthy and monopolistic manufacturers
and importers. Mr.. BLAINE's associations
and intimaeies have all been too closely al
lied to all that the wOrkingmen have
learned to regard as antagonistic to their
interests to arouse much confidence in his

HELENA, Ark, Nov. 19.-William
Jones, a roustabout employed on the
steamer Will II. Hayes, was killed to-day
by William Raleigh, mate of the steamer.
When the boat left Memphis last night
several shots were exchanged between the
mate and three of the crew. When the
Hayes landed at Helena the ne
groes who had been fired upon attempted
to kill the mate by beating him with sticks
and striking him with pieces of coal. They
fled and the city marshal attempted to ar
rest Jones. who was the ringleader of the
gang. A desperate struggle ensued, and
Jones, who was a powerful man, wrested
from the marshal the pistol which he held
in his hand He called for help
and the mate, who came to
his assistance. was compelled to
shoot Jones, who was IN the act of firing
upon the marshal as the two were struggling
together on the ground. The bullet from
the mates pistol struck Jones in the head,
killing him instantly. Bond was given by
the mate for his appearance to answer any
indictment the grand jury may find.

THE NEW YORK BOoDLERs.

the Elevated Railroad company, which was

TAXING DRUMMERs.

The prominent Dakota statesman" who
makes the suggestion that the wealth of
the territory could be much increased by
the imposition of territorial tax of $500
upon every drummer who enters the terri
tory for the purpose of selling goods, dis
plays anything but statesmanlike percep-
ton. His further assertion that If the
agents did not sell goods throughout the
territory wholesale and jobbing houses
would spring up at different Dakota towns
is equally fallacious. The drummers are
of imperative importance to the smaller
merchants, who are thus enabled to buy
their goods without the loss of time and
the expense which frequent trips to the
city would involve. They can keep just
as well informed as to the state of the
market and purchase just as effectively.
In fact the market is brought to their very
doors. Such being the case. every facility
shO uld be given the metropolitan business
houses for transacting business in the terri
tories instead of obstacles being placed in
their way through an OnerOus tax. SO far
as jobbing houses being established in case
the drummer system should be broken up,
there is little likelihood that such would be
the case. AS the mountain couldn't come
to MAHOMET. MAHoMET had to go to the
mountain; so if the drummers did not come
to the merchants, the merchants would, in
stead of establishing wholesale houses for
which they have neither the capital or the
field, come to the drummers or rather their
firms in the cities. Experience has proven
the present system to be the best under the
circumstances, and any legislation which
interferes with its workings is in the highest
degree injudiciOus.

de ST. Petersburg, commenting on letter
from Pesth attributng the fiery anti Russian
tone of many of the speeches made by
members of the Hungarian delegation, to
the alleged proyerbial fondness of the
Magyars for bellicose oratory. says:
That explanation will not hold good with
regard to the public utterances of a cabinet
minister, however, for he is not permitted to
use language on international affairs that is
capable of doubt and diverse constructions.
This is undoubtedly the reason why the
emperor, Francis Joseph, spoke in fitting and
conformable terms of Austria's foreign re-
lations. The pacific Interpretation which the
European press has given to Count Kalnoky' s
speech proves that there is a universal desire
for peace, but confidence in the maintenance
or peace being based on the certainty of
Russia's pacific views, why are these useless
provocations permitted? Public opinion finds
difficulty in reconciling such a course with
the friendly understanding embodied in the
trinle alliance. and may justly doubt
whether Count Kalnoky spoke with Ger
many's authority.

Bodies Covered With Five Inches

WAsHBURN, Wis, Nov. 19.-News has
just been received here that the steamer

a cargo of ore for Cleveland, has gone to
the bottom of Lake Superior with all
on board. She is not known to

steam barge, Fred Kelly. saw her turn
about and head for this port for shelter.
She not arriving here this morning. the
captain of the steam barge Raleigh. who
bought the Lucerne, telegraphed to Bay-
field for tug to go in search of her. The
steamer S. B. Barker Immediately started
out. She had gone only few miles
when the spars of a vessel were
seen just above the water about a mile
south and about ten miles from this city.
Three dead men were found dashed in the
rigging. They were Immediately cut loose
and brought to this city tonight One is
recognized as being the second mate. The
vessel is lying in forty feet of water. The

The coroner's inquest will be held to-mor-
row.

THE ONTARIO PLAN.

There are some features about the Ontario
plan for making assessments for local i'm
provements that commend it to popular
appreciation. At the same time there are
other features about it of such doubtful
expediency that it ought to be considered
long and we'll and weighed carefully in the
public mind before committing ourselves to
it. In the first place the installment plan
for paying the assessments is naturally
enough popular one with property holders.
When a debt of any kind can be strung in
payments. it doesn't seem to the debtor to
be as burthensome as when it has to be a
full cash transaction. This may be fallaci
Gus reasoning on the part of the debtor, but
at the same time it is very popular fallacy.
And thus it is that this feature of the
Ontario plan commendS itself to st. Paul
property holders, who find the assessments
for local improvements one of the heaviest
burthens of municipal taxation. But be-
fore rushing headlOng into adopting the
Ontario scheme might it not be well enough
for the people of st. Paul TO reflect upon
some of the results that are likely to fol-

ceived by the mill owners, that operatives
of all grades became thoroughly disheart-
