This has led to the rule general among
the publication offices of receiving back

liberal treatment has created great many
abuses. 1t has led great many boys

Four years ago, during one of the bril-
liant political demonstrations incidental to
the Bialne-C Cleveland campaign, young
man named Edward Zinn, living near

death. The shooting occurred near the
corner of High and Market streets, but the
assailant was never captured. The police

. well-known young man of this city, had
done the shooting, but had equal difficulty
in laying hands ON Williams or getting
witnesses.

A Famous Case Decided .

CHARLESTON, W. VA, September IL -
In the Circuit Court, Monday, in specia

the partition of A. w. Mcdonald, specia,
receiver Of the Central Improvement Co.
filed in the chancery cause Of The Fidelity
Insurance, Trust and Safe Deposit Co
sgainst the Shenandoah Valley Railroad
Co. The decision is adverse to the peti
toner. The Judge was occupied twC
hours in delivering the opinion, which i,
regarded by the counsel in the case as ar
able legal production. The opinion il
based upon the we'll established principle
that an innocent purchaser for value, with
out notice is protectedi in his, purchase.
In 1872 the Shenandoah Valley Rail
road Company executed q first mortgage
for the purpose Of authorizing and secur,
ing the issue of So, $50, 900 in bonds. I'm,
der this mortgage but $7Sl 900 in bonds
were issued, of which the Central In

paid, and the object of the petition was tC
force their payment as first mortgage

EMINENT REPUBLICAN AUTHOR

The Boston osmmsreiol Bale6a, strong
" Republican, and 8 very able and con-
sentative commercial journal. has this to
say Of the presidential situation:
We are now eight weeks distant, only, from
the Presidential election. The time Is short ana
Is rapidly passing. The outlook for q national
endorsement OF the policy Of protection Is not
what il might be or shOuld be. The issue when
every one supposed at the time of the national
conventions would be so sharply drawn between
protection and what Is called "tsrif reform
has not been drawn and does not exist to-day.
The surplus ought TO be reduced; while not
now as threatening 70 nstions prosperity as at
the time of the Presidents messags, tits siilltoo
great, and Is a bar to economical administration
orthe government. The tariff ought to be re-
yised. Business men aud manufacturer expect
il, and, having discounted its effect as far as pos
slble, do not want a postponement aud another
trade-kiIing tariff agitation.
Yet the grave fact remains that, only eight
weeks before election, the people have but one
policy Of surplus reduction plainly before them,
and the issue is not drawn.
The situation is here defined to a st"
The tissue" which that grand fissco, the
Chicago convention, tried to draw is not
drawn.
The surplus is there and must be reduc-
cd. The Democrats have done all in their
power to keep their pledge to reduce the
surplus and taxation. The isult that pro-
vision is not now made for their reduction
lies with the Republicans 10 the Senate.
They call the Democratic measure q free
trade" Measure but they cannot produce
q better one, labor as they may. Aud
until they show as a measure that is more
acceptable than the MILLS bill. and which
will reduce the surplus, until they draw
their so-called '1issue," the people have
nothing left bnt to fock to the support OF
the Democratic measure, since no better
one can be found.
1t is less than eight weeks till the day Of
election, yet the Republicans have failed
TO sntagOnizs the Dsmecrsts. They have
failed to do anything but bark, and snsrl,
aud yelp at the heels of the President.
The issue is sll on the side of the Demo

n TARIFF.
The Tax Falls Most Heavily Upon the
Poor.
cou.y Y TJHSn

Samuel J. Tlden.
These tariffs carry with them other Incl
dents, which greatly increase their burden.
They fall most heavily upon men of small
incomes, the proceeds OF whose labor and
industry are consumed to support them
selves and their families. Every man who
has obtained 9 situation Of comfort and
prosperity can in some way stand them.
But take the poor man-take the man not
poor, whose annual income is consumed
in his annual support-snd he pays a most
disproportionate amount from his earnings
or income for the taxes levied upon the
country. IL is not for myself that l speak
