Intimidators Jailed.

TOPEKA, January IA gang of Lane
county Ku-Klux has just been broken up
by the arrest of all but one. James VAN
derlin, Nelson English and p S. GslloWay
were brought to the city by United States
marshal and lodged ia the county Jail.
They, with five others, ere charged with
conspiracy TO intimidaJe a homesteader
named Hoover, with a view to forcing him
to abandon his claim for the supposed
purpose of one of their number jumping
it. The other five gave bond for their ap.
pearsnce to answer indictment in the
United States District Court, and these
parties not being able to give bond. they
will be confined to Jail until the sitting of
the next term of court. 1t seems that, one
night several months ago. these defendants,
who were masked, entered the house Of a
settler named Hoover, near Dighton, car
rylng with them bucket of tar and feath-
ers. They set upon Hoover and beat and
kicked him numerically. An attempt
was made to tar and feather him, but he
fought desperately, and the tar was scat
tered over the room and furniture. Mrs
Hoover came to her husbands assistance,
and, with a heavy wooden chair, felled
three of the attacking party. In the scrim-
mage the masks were torn off, disclosing
the identity of the parties, who then re-
treated. Not long after this occurrence
the humble dwelling of the Hoovers was
set on fire one night and burned to the
ground, leaving the family homeless on the
prairie. The matter was presented to Dis
trict Attorney Perry, who brought it be-
fore the grand jury. Indictments were
returned against the parties, and warrants
we're issued for their arrest.

Heavy ForeiRn Mail,

New YORK, January 2.-Saturday AID
Sunday were heavy foreign mail days in
the posofice. a steamer from Queenstown
generally brings not more than four hun.
dred of five hundsed sacks of letters and pa
pers, but the Germanla, on Saturday,
brought 740 sacks, and besides that there
were five other vessels from various foreign
ports, which brought mail matter amount
ing altogether to L. OBS hays. Each bag will
average about one Injured pounds of let
tiers. Yesterday the Etruria brought 100
bsgs from London, and the BretagnS 100
from HaVre. This makes the total for the
two days 1, sos sacks of foreign mail. The
cause Of this large foreign mail is found
partly in the holiday membranes from
abroad, and partly in the fact that the
business between England and the United
States, at this season, is especially active.
The first big batch of holiday mail from
the old country was received on Sunday a
week ago. when the Britannia brought 975
bags. This was ready for delivery on the
Monday after Christmas, and was the
largest single delivery of foreign mali ever
received in the UniIed States. Postmaster
Pearson received the verificatiOn cer,ii.
Gates from the London postoffice of the
money orders sent from this country ia
the two weeks before Christmas. There
were Is, 600 separate remittances. MIST If
them were intended for presents TO the old
folks at home.

A Panic Among Children.

CHICAGO, December 30.-A horrible panic
occurred tonight among a crowd of little
children attending the annual holiday
celebration of the Haymsrket mission in
Seaman's Hall, corner of Lake and Des-
planes streets. The mission is conducted
by the First Congregational Church through
q superintendent, Richard d. Lay. The
location is just half a block from the scene
Of the Anarchist bomb throwing, and
most Of the half hundred children present
were drawn from the squalid tenements In
the neiehborhood. The little ones were
passing up and down stairs, when a SILVER
ing youngster, attempting TO poke the fire
in the hall, overturned the stove. Super
intendent Lay thoughtlessly yelled, "Fire.
fire." and wild rush by the children fol-
lowed. They were met by others coming
IN, and all were wedged in the narrow
stairway. Scarcely any escaped without
being crushed or trampled upon, but,Iso far
as known, there is only one fatality. Emil
Wey, aged nine, cannot live. Two sisters,
Lille and Louise Lemker, aged ten and
twelve, are very seriously hurt, aud the
eldest may die. A boy named William
Sanders is the only one else heard to have
been seriously injured. The Superintend.
ent was at onse placed under arrest,

predict, add largely to his fame as a watch
full guardian Of the peoples interests. I'm
der Republican administration thieves got
away with about 100 OOO, 600 acres of the
public domain in way that must always

ready, and the amount will soon be swelled
to 81 ,0OO, 900 acres in a short time. Judge

The following is an extract from a
market letter" sent out from New York
a few days since to all sections of the
country:
The whole country is waiting patiently

1t is needed, there might come a complete
revulsion of sentiment and people might,
with restored confidence OF success, not
only engage in new enterprises but hurry
to completion those already begun and
low hanging fire for want of capital or
confidence.
By an iniquitous system OF taxation
there is now locked up in the Treasury

Hon. DAVID A. WELLS, discussing "Gov.
ernmentsl interference with production
ana distribution" in No. OF the series, in
the January number of the Popular Science
Monthly, refers particularly TO the changes
in the commercial relations of European
countries, and says:
The factors that have been concerned in
ehectiDg these economic changes and &C
companying disturbances are not, how
ever, simple, but somewhat numerous and
complex. They, nevertheless, admit, it is
believed, of clear recognition and state
ment. In the first place, the results of the
Franco-German War-the radical changes
in the character and construction OF war
ornaments since that period, and the con-
tinual augmentation of permanent military
forces, have entailed upon the States of
Europe since 1873 continually increasing
expenditures and Indebtedness; and indi-
'ect taxation, by means of duties on I'M
arts, to meet these increasing financial
urdens, has been found to be most in &C
ord with the maxim attributed to Colbert,
nat the perfection of taxation consists in
pluckiHg the GOOSE. e., the people
TO procure the greatest amount of
Gathers with the least possible amount of
luawking.
But it should be remembered that in
European countries there is never sur
illus. All that is extorted from the peo-
ole, squawk OF no squawk, is expended.
European Governments, however dsspotic,
10 not tax their subjects $1OO 600, 900 a
year more than they have use for. That
sort of despotism Is reserved for the Gov
eminent OF the United States to perpe-
trate. The Republican party adopted Col
bert's maxim, and though it has managed
to rob the people OF 500, 900, 900 year, 1t
has boasted that there was little "sauawk.
Ing" But the people to whom Colbert re-
ferred to as geese" don't propose to be
longer "plucked" in the inter .sts of mo-
nopolists. They are "squawking," and
the Republican ''plucking" business has
got to cease. The Democratic party de-
mands it, and the people squawk that way.

PARTY ORGANIZATION.

The maintenance Of the organization OF
the Democratic party is OF the highest pos
sible Importance to the State and to the
county. 1t Is only required that the peo-
pie should be familiar with the acts OF the
Republican party during the period that it
was permitted to scourge the country, to
satisfy the most skeptical that no greater
calamity could occur than such lack of
organization in the Democratic party as
would lead to the triumph OF the Repub-
lican party in Indiana and in the Republic
in the coming campaign. After obtaining
power in 1861, by virtue of Democratic di-
vision, calamity which made Republican
success possible, the country was subjected
to series Of scourges which were well CAL
culated to create the belief in some suscept.

PoRTLAND,s ESCAPE.
A Big Wave Which Might Have Caused
Great Damage.

Big wave which Might Have Caused
Great Damage.
PORTLAND, Me-, December 30.-It is evil
dent that Portland escaped q great danger
during the storm of Wednesday night.
The great gale struck Portland Head at $50
O'Clock, at time wnen in this harbor the
wind seemed to be dying out. Up to that
time, while the wind had been terrific,
blowing fifty miles an hour, the rain fall
ing continuously, Keeper Strout and his
assistants, Joe and Gil Strout, had no idea
that anything unusual was about ID occur.
"It was very clear" said Gil Sirout yester-
day, and we could see long way out
through the rain, and when the great wave
made its appearance we could see its white
cap far out, and could watch its approach "
Apparently the monster wave came in
the shape Of q pyramid. 1t struck first
against the outer line Of rock, and at that
time, WREN the foundations of the mighty
deep st emed to have broken up, a mass
water lowered up even, as they belle We
with the Lighthouse itself. Between the
line of rock extending for, perhaps a
hundred feet along the sea-line and the
shore, is an opening some forty feet deep,
and varying from ten to twenty feet in
length. This space was never filled with
water until last night, when the giant wave
broke and filled il from above. Waves of
ordinary size and power, breaking and
pressing behind, added their strength to
that of the monster, and the entire mass was
hurled sixty feet above high water mark
against the engine, boiler and fog-horn
house. The force of the blow was such that
the building, built as strongly as possible,
was bent, twisted and shattered. Great
iron straps were snapped as though they
had been pipe stems, and the receding
wave carried with it everything on shore,
including stones weighing tons.
A farmer who lives on the shore of Cape
Elizabeth, about two miles beyond the
headlight. said: when the wave was
coming in 1t made fearful roar, but
when it struck the cliffs il seemed as
though it fairly smashed them to pieces.
The force of the blow was tremendous.
Another such gigantic billow would have
done woeful damage along the shore"

lille minds that Jehovah. as in the case of
JoN, had turned the devil loose upon the
country. The Democratic party went into
exile and the Republican party had its own
way for number of years-some say for
quarter of century, but it was not for q
period quite so extended-that Is to say,
the people, long before the expiration OF
Arthur's term of office expired, began to
demand the return of the Democratic
party to power. They saw distinctly that
the UNANIMOUSLY corrupt party must be
routed, horse, foot and dragon, or that
the Government must perish. In
all the. years the Democratic
party was out OF power, it maintained it's
organization, and as a result, honest Re-
publicans, men who loved their country
better than their party, abandoned their
party and denounced it as vicious, corrupt,
rotten. incapable, and the good work of
revolution and reform went forward until
1876, when the people by a majority of
$50, 900 declared that the rotten Republi-
can party should 60. 1t did not 90, be.

umph. Republican "Christless whelps"
perpetrsted Christless crime, by virtue
of which the Republican party retained
control OF the Government eight years
longer. But the Democratic party main
tanned its organization, kept its watch
fires burning, and in 1884 again triumphed.
Another campaign is on. With the
Democratic party organization means sue
cess in Inoiana and in the Republic. 1t
m ans the election of the Democratic State
ticket in Indiana. Itmeans the reelection
OF Grover Cleveland, and it means, what
the people want, continuation of eco
nomical and honest government.
In Indiana, the supreme demand is
thorough organization from precinct to
county, and this organization we feel as
sured the party will have at the earliest
day practicable, and that the meeting to
be held in Indianapolis on the 18th inst
will largely expedite the work.

tions. 1t will be noticed that there is not
now, and has not been, any Northern and
Southern Roman Catholic Church. The
Roman Catholics don't do business that
way. Nor is there forty or fifty Roman
Catholic sects preaching antagoaistic doc
trines about salvation and other things
no constant revision of the Bible to get it
so it will please everybody; and contem-
plating the unity and the steady march of
the Roman Catholic Church, it may occur
to some Protestents that those who deem
it q duty to oppose Catholic progress,
would do well to stop wrangling among
themselves, choose head, define line of
march, and then proceed to business.
The Roman Catholic church, it will be
noticed, believe that the average commu-
meant needs to be amused. The idea is
eminently correct. 1t is fact hence q
pious Roman Catholic may go to the
theater, the ball, to places of amusement,
and generally act as If they were still in
this world and not in the world to com
1t may be possible, indeed 1t is probable,
that some Roman Catholics, like Chris
tians of other names, do not 60 to such
places-it fact, there are those who make
no profession OF religion at all, who avoid
amusements, but the Roman Catholic
church believes that a person can be re-
ligious and attend places of amusement.
In this the church decides wisely, and to
this it will come at last with all denomi.
pstions of Christians. To laugh, to sing
and dance ought not to be regarded as sin.
full, but rather healthful for body and
mind.
Again, it will never be known until the
book OF Gods remembrance is opened, the
good that has been done in the world by
the Sisters OF Charity. Their work of love
and benevolenoe will win victories to the
last moment of recorded time, and here,
again, it is possible for Professionalism
to learn wisdom, since it must be time
that there are outside of the Roman Catho-
lie communion women, who for the
promised rewards, are willing to donate
their lives to good works.
1t is not surprising that Pope Leo re-.
ceives congratulations. Victoria, Queen
fifty years, had jubilee. Pope Leo priest
ffty..years, has jubilee. The Jurisdiction
OF the latter is the most extensive and his
subjects more loyal. The idea is a good
one. May iubilees multiply.

A General strike Ordered.

SHAMoKIN. Pa, January "A meeting
Of the Knights of Labor and raiIroaders
was held here to-day, and as a result gen.
eral strike of miners and rsilroaders will be
made tomorrow throughout the anthracite
region, except in the Wyoming Valley. The
miners strongly condemned the course of
the railroad company and the Brother
hood OF Locomotive Engineers and made
an appeal to men who contemplate coming
into sthe region to seek work to remain
away until the strike is settled. They also
advise hotel and boarding house keepers
not to entertain ''scabs," and declared their
intention to fight to finish. The entire
coal region,was represented at the meeting.
The sentiment of the meeting was unan-
imously in favor of the lockout Every
thing is quiet. Business is greatly de-
pressed. The miners declare they can stand
out fer six months.

The Washington correspondent OF the st.
Louis Republican in recent dispatch to
that paper recalls scene in the National
House of Representatives March ID, 1877,
when Hon. Joe Blackburn, of Kentucky,
denounced the fraud by which Rutherford
B. Hayes obtained possession of the White
House. The opening paragraphs Of Mr..
Blackburn's speech are given as follows;
Mr.. Speaker-The end has come. There
is no longer margin for argument, and
manhood spurns the plea OF mercy. But
yet there is fitness in the hour which
should not pass unheeded. To-day is Fri
day. On that day the Savior suffered cru
cihxlon between two thieves. On this Fri
day constitutional government, justice,
liberty, fair dealing, manhood and decency

thieves [pointing to the Republican side

idential fraud received its NOM
ination at the hands of the Rs
publican party. 1t was on that day as ii
required that every determination reached
by the perjured, blistered miscreants who
constitute majority of that commission
was promulgated TO the country, 1t is on
that day that you propose to consummate
the iniquity and foist into power him
whom the people Of the land have scorned,
spurDed aud rejected at the polls. II It
must be, it'll we'll that it should occur here
and now; but il is also we'll that the record
should show on whom that responsibility
rests. 1t does not rest on the shoulders of
the American people. They perform ed
their duty molly. When the sun went
down on the eth day of November the
people delivered to their representatives, a
title to the Office, indefeasible and indis-
putable, backed by a maj ority of 2S0,00
votes. By their leaders this title has been
gambled away.
The great beneficiary of that crime still
survives, political leper-whose name is
seldom mentioned, even by the party who
conferred the stolen Office upon him-a
venal wretch he wanted the $50, 900 year
and perquisites of the Office, Too mean and
despicable to. kill himself, an over-ruling
Providence seems disposed to prolong his
useless existence as a monument OF a
Republican crime unparalleled for its
enormlty.
