A Sad Tragedy.

IFarmerville Gazette.l st.,,.. 81.
Monday evening tho usually quiet aud
peaceable town Of Marion was the scene OF
another deplorable tragedy. G. J. Payne
aud J. J. Lopez, both we'll known citizens
OF our parish, became involved in quarrel,
resulting in tho latter fatally shooting the
former with rife. Tho ball entered tho
side and penetrated through the body,
causing death in . few minutes. --
We cannot get full particulars. but learn
that the difficulty grew out Of an old
grudge, and that the parties had querrslled
frequently during the day. ,....
This sad affair is the moro deplorabls on
account Of the relationship Of the parties
they being brothers-iu-law. The deceased
leaves wife and several dependent chill

The reports concerning this sad affair are
conflicting, and as the matter will be the
subject Of judicial investigation we with

tragic deeds are becoming entirely too
common in our parish. H." i..'.' ..-

A Chicago dispatch says: 1t is
now definitely known that the secret
organization mentioned some time
ago as having been organized to
work for the election of Gresham for
President is reality, and it is boldly
asserted that it now numbers over
100000 men. 1t is organized on a
military plan and is divided into
brlgades, regiments and companies.
The greatest care is used in getting
members, and no. applications are re-
ceived, as the organization seeks a
man instead of the man seeking it.
The organization is not entirely
pledged to Gresham, but he is the
preference, and every effort is to be
be made to elect him, or to have him
nominated rather. Should the Re.
publican Convention select another
man as standard bearer the organiza-
ton will support him. One hundred
such organizations are already in ex-
istence in Illinois alone and their pow
er is likely to be felt between now
and the day the Republican Conven-
ton meets.

are Mormons in religious faith; the
rest are -Mormons or what are
called there "Gentiles." There are

polygamous families. Very many OF
them are old people, Some of them
married their plural wives long be-
fore there was any prohihitory law
against such marriages. These older
people and their older wives are now
rapidly passing away. The younger

THE APPROPRIATION BILL AND
FREE TRADE.

1
tee on Appropriations of the House
of Representatives has been reported
t. Congress. Randall, of PenEsyl-
vania, is Chairman of the Appropria-
tons Committee, and always has OPP
posed extravaganza in the expendi-
lures of the Government. Though
Cleveland's greatest enemies must ad-
nit that he is conducting the affairs
of the Government economically, in
fact some think too much so, it re-
quires considerable over three hun
dred millions of dollars yearly for ex-
penditures. The largest items of ex-
pense are for pensions, interest on
the public debt, army and navy, riv-
ers and harbors, civil service, public
buildings, and collecting the revenue.
| The annual revenue from all sources
is about $340,000,000, of which about
| :19O,000,000 is derived from customs
duties on imports, over e10O,000,OO0
from internal revenue taxes, about
100000 from the profits on silver
coinage, and s6,OO0,0O from the sale
Of public lands, the balance being
from miscellaneous sources, none of
which exceed two and half millions.
Taking into consideration the fact
that the expenditures of the Govern
ment are over $300,000,000 annually,
and that nearly two-thirds of the re-
ceipts are derived from the duty on
imports, the talk about free trade is
demagogism, pure and unauthorized,
designed to mslead voters who do
not give the subject due considera-
ton. II everybody in the country ia
vored free trade, we could not have
it so long as the expenditures of the
Government remain anything near
what they now are, unless direct tax
alton is resorted to as substitute for
the tariff.
The receipts at present are several
millions a year in excess OF the ex-
penditures. This leaves surplus in
the Treasury, and as the surplus is
derived from taxation, both the Re-
publican and Democratic parties
pledged themselves in their national
platform 10 reduce taxation, all agree
ing that the money which is accumu-
lating in the Treasury ought not to be
collected from the people. To re-
duce the revenue to the actual wants
of the Government is a question which
is now brought before Congress and
the country. The majority of the
Ways and Means Committee, that is,
seven of the thirteen members OF
which that committee is composed, re-
ported bill to reduce the revenue
The six, comprising the minority, OBJ
ject to the bill, but offer no substitute
for it, though Randall of Pennsyl-
vania, who is not member of the
committee, does. Now Congress will
have to determine which, if either OF
these bills, shall become law, and
it is morally certain that neither will
pass in the shape in which il has been
: introduced. The question involved
however, is not tariff or free trade,
but simply whether the revenues
shall be reduced by abolishing the
tax on whisky, as proposed by Ran
dali, or putting certain articles, now
dutiable, on the free list, and reduc-
ing the tariff on others, as proposed
by Mills

Anti Marmon representatives. at
Washington think that they have dis
covered a subtle Mormon plan In
connection with the movement to Sc
cure the admission of new territories
as states. 1t has been noticed that
since congress began there has been
no considerable agitation in favor of
Utah as a state. 1t is claimed that
the Mormons have changed their tao
tics-that they have already estab-
ished new colonies in New Mexico,
and have made arrangements for
making many more new settlements
there in anticipation of ultimately
securing political control of that ter
ritory, and that now Mormon in
huence will be exerted in favor of
the admission of New Mexico.
