also increased. Every buyer at the ba/

that act given his support to the leagu{

alone that this great exhibition, the join

serial publication, metropolitan or proI
%vincial, that was not full of the topic|
which thus became the familiar talk OF
every household in the country. A felic
itous idea had been worked out with skill
and energy, and attended with compiled
success.

events passing outside of parliament. A
great national bazaar was to be held at
Convent Garden theatre, partly to swell
the funds of the league and partly for the
reasons stated by Mr.. G.. Wilson, the
chairman at a preparatory meeting on the
10th of April. IF money only were our
object, he said, "a greater amount might
easily be procured by a general subscrip-
ton than we are likely to receive from
this exhibition but we want a more gen.
orally implied cooperation than the mere
amount of money would imply. We
want to see assembled in this theatre our
friends from all parts of the kidgdom in
order that they may confer together; that
they may become known to each other
that they may derive from such meetings
and from what they will see here a new
impetus and carry to the extremities of
the country a redoubled resolution to as
sist us in promoting the great object
which we have in view"
1.-The bazaar opened on the Sth of MAY,
and proved e%minently successful. Never
before had Convent Garden theatre pre-
sented so grand a spectacle. All the
space that could be spared for the exhibit
ton OF stalls of articles for sale was
crowded to excess with wares of every
possible description, many of them of
great beauty, rarity and value, contribut.
ed by almost every town and district in
the United Kingdom. They were classed
and labelled according to the localities
whence they came. So great was the va

many of the articles exhibited, that they
very fairly illustrated the productive
powers OF the nation, and this nOt only

Judge ONeill is the only the republican candidate that has thus tar been attacked except ID the case of the the Flagstaff Democrats malicious falsehoods about Messrs. Moore, Brann and Martin, and which were immediately met and disproved by this paper. We have met the enemy at every point of attack aud have thus far succeeded in keeping him at bay.

Enlarging on General Harrison ar sertion that 'it IS not a contest between schedule, but between wide-awake princi- pies" the St. Louis Globe Democrat says: "The difference between the republican and the democratic doctrine on the tariff question is fundamental. It is not simply the difference between 47 per cent. tariff and 4a per cent. tariff. but 1t IS the difference between adequate protection and no protection at all. Holding the views expressed by the president Mr. Mills and the party leaders, the democracy could not hon. estiy stop until every vestige of protec- ticn should be shaken from the tariff No honest. intelligent friend of Ameri- can industry can vote the democratic ticket this year"

TIMBER AID LAND SPIES.

One of the most pernieious systems ever inaugurated by any administration IS that of espionage by the interior de- partment over the lands and timbers of the government, While the democratic papers are howlng about the democratic admir- istratIun throwing thousands of acres of land open to settlements, the same administration IS employing scores of spies to harass and annoy bona fide settlers and to prevent them, from getting this laEd except through the greatest annoyance ahG In some in- stances through peiseCutlOn. A number of men employed by the administration in its earlIer history found, on assuming the duties that, the work required of them, was repulsive to their sense of honor and disgustlng!y threw up their appointments Everything seems to be working serenely now. however, for the Washington officials from the tone of the press throughout the great west and southwest Not single paper have We vet seen which endorses this action of government The motto of the interior department seems to be that "evely man who warts government land 10 build for himself and family a home IS supposed to be land thief and swin- dler urtll he proves himself different ani every man who wants cord ot wood or thousand feet of lumber for domestic purposes IS also thief" When II can secure an entire corps oi special agents who are willing to act on these presump- tions the department will have pretty

state to the republican cause is New Jersey, as conceded by wise and shrewd political observers. It would seem also that even New Jersey with her nine electoral votes IS not absolutely certain to the democracy, as the Newark Jour- nal, the most influential democratic paper in New Jersey, IS paralyzed with fear over the republican prospects of carrying the state. It charges upon its party too much apathy and want of har- mony. and warns the Cleveland man. agers that a new leaf must be turned over and new policy vigorously insti- tuted if they would check the big inroads the republicans are making in the demo cratic ranks. Judging from this the democracy can have but little hope of carrying the state.

Lawrence asked Edmonds to retract the severe reply he had made to the communication. Edmonds refused. Asce taining that Edmonds was no, armed, Lacy pulled revolver and opened fire upon him. He was sho, in the left arm d, the elbow, and sc- r!ou>iy wounded. l acy attempted to shoot again but the pisIoi snapped which probably saved Edmonds' lite. The assassio then fired at Messrs.
