hope of interviewing Gen. Hood, We lay for
some Time near Gaylesville, Ala, and ravaged
the country pretty thoroughly. Forage details

every chicken, dack and turkey on the place.
The lady Of the house stood on the piazza, pale
and scorntul. Near by was her daughter, a
pretty girl Of 10, who was fairly blazing with
wrath. Shaking her fists at the poultry fan
ciers, her bright eyes flashing through her
tears she exclaimed:
My father died fighting you, and would
do the same if was a man"
Hart and myself, having no chickens, stood
IN the background, surveyed the scene, and,

AS might have been expected, the
defeat of the Home Rule bill in the
English parliament has been pro-
ductive of bloody riots in Ireland
Statesman.
The above conveys an erroneous
impressions that we do not believe
was intended, as the general ex-
preston Of the press is the contrary
of anything of the kind. Not a
Home Rule man participated in the
riots. The Home Rule advocates
were not melted to a single act of
violence by their temporary defeat.
The Ulster Orangemen, as is well
known, threatened open rebellion
should the Home Rule bill be pass
ed. They were the rioters, not on
account of the defeat of Home Rule,
which they desired, but in spite of
it, instigated by the opposite lead.
ers who are doing all they can
to defeat Gladstone's appeal to the
country. The riot was between the
turbulent Orangemen and the pc.
lice, and took place before Home Rule
was defeated. Had the bill passed,
the Orangemen would have been
more rebellious than ever. The
trouble is with warning faction of
the Ulster people, not approved of
by the better thinking classes, who
are followers of Parnell and his CO.
religionists, and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
Ireland irrespective of religious con.
viction, is in favor of some kind of
home government, which is bound
to be granted sooner or later, and
the defeat of Gladstone we believe
will lead to a more just recognition
of Ireland's rights. The rioting is
the work of faction of fanatics and
not of the Home Rule element.

WASHINGTON NOTES.

The two parties are preparing for
the fall elections and the control of
the next House Of Representatives.
The Republicans have already estab-
lished their headquarters. Gen. N.
Golf has accepted the position of
Chairman Of the Republican Con-
gressional Committee and Col. Ed.
Mcpherson, that of Secretary. That
means business. Both of these
gentlemen have experience and
ability, and stirred by their honest
convictions that the best interests
of the country will be subserved by
the return of the Republicans to the
control Of all the departments of
government, they will address them
selves to the duties before them
with intrepidity and determination,
and use all honorable means to both
win and deserve success.
Mr.. Kenna was chosen Chairman
of the Democratic Committee, but
he has asked to be relieved. The
request was not granted, and an
urgent appeal was made upon him
10 change his determination. What
will be the result, is not now known.
West Virginia has been unusually
complimented in the selection of
both chairmen from her delegation
in Congress-, and may have slgnifi-
canoe in locating the theatre of bat.
tie in States where there are Repub.
lican possibilities. The Legislature
to be elected this fall in that State,
will have the choice of United
States Senator to succeed Hon. j.
N. Camden. 1t may be that the
Republicans will have the majority,
and if so Gen. Golf would doubtless
be the choice of his party for that
honor. Should the Democrats sue.
coed, then Senator Camden, with
his coal oil influence to back him,
would stand a good chance, but it
would be in the face of the opposi.
ton of Gov. Wilson who represents
the masses of the party, and whose
fovorite would no doubt be Henry s.
Walker, present secretary of that
State, who came within one vote of
the place when Hon. Allen S. Caper-
ton was elected some years ago.
A most extraordinary and dis.
graceful record was that made by
the House of Representatives on
Friday. BY vote of lao to 81 it
overturned the report of the Con-
mittee on Reform in the Civil Ser.
vice recommending the expulsion of
Luther +. Warder from the office of
Assistant Doorkeeper OF the House
and adopted substitute resolution
OF censure, for the offense of using
money to secure an appropriation Of
500, 900 for the Jacksonville, Ind.
levee. The majority by this report
reproves the scandalous conduct of
an officer of the House, but refuses
to impose the penalty unanimously
awarded by the committee which in.
vestigated the charges Valley Vir-
gilman.

Mr.. Gallaher, of the ChaIlestown
Free Press, received cable dispatch
last week, that Thomas Gallaher, a
well-known local simpleton" of Bel
fast, was killed in the Orange riots.
Though simple, it seems he sustain
ed the family record for bravery
This explains itself. The Charles.
town scion of that noble house has
had something preying on his mind
since the war, as we heretofore
thought, but now all is clear. The
killing of an inoffenslve colored man
in the John Brown raid was indeed
the beginning of the end-of slavery,
hot of friend G.'s mental condi.
ton, as can be inferred from the
"cable dispatch" he received con-
corning the killing Of one of the Gal
laher family in Ireland. 1t is a
duty he owes to himself and his
friends to have his remarks on the
killing of an inoffensive colored man,
and the cable dispatch of the killing
of the "local simpleton' Gallaher,
stereotyped and kept standing at
the head of his paper, so all who run
may read.

The Canada fishing troubles may
yet involve the two countries in ser
ious difficulties. Vessels are now
going armed, and should there be a
collision and loss of life the settle.
ment of the question would become
more aggravated. Few understand
the trouble, and many treaties have
from time to time been entered into
between England and America in
regard to certain rights in Canadian
waters. AS long as the fishing in
dustry remains profitable, there is
no trouble about American and
Canadian rights. But when the
business fails to pay then both sides
ignore rights and treaties, and do
as they please. The violent attitude
assumed by those concerned will
lead to no solution or abatement of
the trouble, but may bring on further
complications. Talk of annexing
canada to the U. S. is revived.
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1886-06-19

The real issue in the election OF
members to the Legislature this fall,
is, shall Mr.. Camden be returned to
the q. S. Senate? The Greenback-
ers know that lie is no friend of the
principles they advocate; how, then,
can they vote for men who favor his
return TO the Senate The Knights
of Labor are also aware that Mr..
Camden is monOpolist and is in
direct opposition to the principles oil
their order; nor can they vote for
men to mis-represent them in the
Legislature, by sending hostile labo:
representation back to the Senate.
If the Republicans have the wisdom
to unite with those whose interests
and sentiments are the same-those
who can and will assist them-the
party that is grinding the life out
of the farmer and laborer by taxa.
ton, can be overthrown in this
State.
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1886-06-19

1t seems a pity that the Republl
can masses in this State, and the
many overburdened taxpayers OF
other parties who are ready and
willing to join in with and try some
other than their own political gov.
eminent, should be defeated in theiI
purpose by the selfish actions and
traitorous practices of Republicans
themselves. But such is the case
We see it in other parts of the State
than our own, but are more directly
concerned with party matters ii
this county. Seldom do we hear oil
Democrats playing into the hands Of
Republicans. They are sincere and
true to their party, and the more
liberal-minded for just and honora
BILE reasons frequently vote for good
Republican candidates. They dc
this from fair motives; unlike Re
publicans who bolt their party from
traitorous purposes. A little bust
ness dealings, little financial en-
dorsement, some social connivances
and for other trivial causes these
are so-called Republicans will &c
with the Democrats and help to de
feat the very men in whose nomi
mating convention they stood, and
often turn against the very men who
previously helped to elect them to
Office. Such men do the Republi
cans more harm than if they were
outright Democrats. If these slight
considerations move then to &C
back on their party, what would
they not do for greater inducements
For this reason Republicans should
be on their guard and keep such
men where they can do the party
the least harm. How do the Demo.
Gratis reward their Republican allies
By a little patronage of one kind OF
other, but never by any important
Office. They know better than to
trust those who can not be trusted.
The social recognition bestowed for
political assimilation must indeed
be given very begrudgingly and
with an inward contempt for such
groveling servility. In the end time
brings everything to it's level. We
should like to impress upon Repub-
licans the duty Of standing up for
their party and working for it. There
are five working Democrats to one
active Republican. Men of our
party are too indifferent and too

SANTIAGO, June 16 (via Calves
ton).-During the elections here
yesterday great riot occurred.
Forty persons were killed and many
wounded. The hospitals are full OF
injured persons. Senior Dinator, a
prominent member of the Radical
party was killed. The result of the
elections is supposed to be in favor
of the Liberals.
Farmers Of the Shenandoah Val
ley had rough time getting in their
corn this season, on account of the
protracted rains. A great deal of
the seeded corn was washed out,
and some of it, being covered with
mud persisted. Some farmers of the
section have only finished planting
the past week. But, notwithstand-
ing, it is probable that very large
crOp-much above an average-has
been planted.
