unless It we're for il and the brass band our
political gatherings OF sll faiths would be

bright colors Of transparencies vary the
monotony Of marching men, and your crowd
is gathered.
1t may therefore be readily seen that the
organisation Of big club is Of no small
importance, and should not be neglected.

The Streator club held meeting lately TO
organize marching club and the matter
WAS taken hold Of earnestly and with GER
tainty Of success. Streator's club has in
creased considerably in numbers in the past
few weeks, and will reach FIVE hundred long
before the campaign shot and shell begin
to disturb the atmosphere to any great eI
tent. Streator is go.a.head place, and
with her club as well as with other things,
she will not be found wanting when the roll
is called.
The democratic ladies' Of Rockford have
formed Frances Cleveland club The club
already numbers over fifty members; they
intend to have o well trained qusrtette and
chorus for service at political mass meetings,
and when democratic speakers visit Rockford
the ladies' of the Frances Clevlend club will
entertain them right royalty. The uniform
will be white equestrian hats, snow white
dresses, with red bandanna around the
waist.
The formation Of Frances Cleveland club
by the Democratic girls Of Ottawa would DO
A good campaign feature and is worthy Of

The Last Hours of Frank williams.

nolds, as he gave his name at the last,
paid the penalty, Saturday afternoon,
August 21st, for his murderous kill

At that hour he awoke and asked the
watch what time it was, and being

When led to the gallows he presented
the appearance of man of whom
might be expected better things. He
was neatly attired in a wellfitting
black suit, low shoes and white stock
ings and in figure and form looked
well. He walked under the rope with
a cigar in his mouth and when given
an opportunity spoke in rather in
coherent and maudlin way denying
his guilt of the criminal murder OF

ing a readiness to die and preferring
death to Imprisonment for life. lie

around his own neck and during his
speech turned to the sheriff and said

THE debate in the Senate last week
shows Senator Stewards determination
on the dismemberment of Idaho. If
that willy statesman does not succeed
in pushing his bill through the Senate
this session we shall expect renewal
of the effort at an early day of the
next session. And should he succeed
this session we feel no uneasiness
about his forcing it through the Lower
House. Delegate Dubois is on the
qui vive and will hold him and his
co-adjutors at bay in that body.

is Republican OF the most pronoune-
ed type, went over the list of indict-
ments and made report Of the cases
that could not be convicted and re
commended their dismissal to Mr..
Hawley. Deputy Marshal Hopson,
who has been charged as being q per
secutor of Nom ms, informed Mr.
Hawley that he could not find wit
nesses sufficient to convict many OF
these men and also gave it as his
opinion that the best to be done was
to discharge them. Attorney Woods
and Deputy Marshal Hopson both
know that there are no foundation for
such charges as have been brought
anonymously against Mr.. Hawley and
we believe will say so on demand.
Mr.. Hawley has nothing to conceal
in the discharge of his official duties,
either for or against the Mormons, and
if any friend wants information about
any particular case or all of them for
that matter, we feel sure that Mr.
Hawley will give it willingly and
cheerfully, but his friends would not
recommend the condescension of re-
plying to all anonymous communica-
tions where writers names cannot be
obtained. Political friends or politi-
cal opponents wanting any informa-
ton about the conviction or non-con-
viction of any one Norman tried in
the courts at Blackfoot since Mr.. Haw-
ley's term of office can be accommo-
dated, but we protest against giving
credence to the charges of enemies
who are unknown and who cannot be
found out.

.HAMLRY AID THE MORMONs.

The attacks on Hon. Jas. H. Hawley
by anonymous. correspondents who
cowardly hide their heads under the
coat tails of editors and whose heads
cannot be cracked except in danger
to the innocent editors, find no in.
dorsements from any source whatever.
Even the political opponents of MIR.
Hawley denounce them as cowardly
in the extreme. In this advanced age
men honor the brave and despise
towards, and he who makes charge
and has not the manliness to father it
openly and boldly over his own sigma
ture should perish with the charge.
No taker of human life is so despica-
BILE as he who shoots in the back and
hides himself in the lava beds or
sneaks away in the sage brush. An
open enemy is entitled to respect, the
midnight assassin to none
The intimation that Mr.. Hawley has
gone over to the Mormons because he
is candidate for Delegate to Con-
gress and wants their votes IS too re-
diculously absurd to need denial. The
records of the courts at Blackfoot.
and they are open to inspection, be
speak his faithfulness in discharge OF
official duties. On these records he
is willing to stand or fall. Mr.. Haw.
ley's determination to become a can.
didate for Congress was formed as far
back as the court in the fall of 1887
and at that court his convictions and
prosecutions of Mormons give nc
foundation for charges nor for intima
tions that he failed to do his duty and
his whole duty. In the court just
adjourned his record is equally pure
and untarnished. At the fall cour
of 1887 some were convicted ant
some discharged, at this summer,
court the same thing was done. Now
touching the cases that were dismiss
ed the following are substantially tn,
facts:
The majority of them were held I'm
der indictments found as far back a!
1885 and Sc and have been carried
over on the docket from court to cour
simply because testimony could no
be gotten at any one term sufflcieh
to warrant convictions. The, bblic,
of the Departmental JUSTICE an,
Mr.. Hawley has been 80 ordered, tina
cases must be disposed of and th
docket cleared at some time, and
now because these cases were wipe,
off just at this court, all this hue an,
cry is made for political effects. AS

The claim is made that the work
ingmen profit by the tariff Do they?
Have not Mr.. Carnegies men recently
been ON strike for higher wages,
while he has been luxuriating in his
wealth? Certainly. He does not di-
vide profits with his men. The war
taxes help him get rich. 1t does not
help the men. The rate of wages is
governed always by the relations of
supply and demand. All that Carne-
gle does for his men is to pay them
what wages he is obliged to, and help
keep up the prices of everything they
buy. Mr.. Carnegie is SAID to be a
generous man. OF his 100000
tariff profits one year he gave $780,
900 for a library in Pittsburg and
100000 to the city of Allegheny.
But he did not divide with his men.
The trouble is the money he has to
give away never rightly belonged 10
him. 1t was taken from the people
by unjust taxation. 1t is monstrous
wrong. And yet Republican organs
urge that without this taxation bust
ness could only be carried on by re-
ducing wages. Such talk is both false
and wicked.-Ex.
