THERE is no knowing what may occur within the next twenty hours at the republican convention. But the nomina- ton of James G. Blaine is among the possibilities Indeed, it is not at all i'm probable that there will be stampede for the "uncrowned king" The Gresham, Harrison, Sherman and Alger factions will fight the matter to the bitter end and Mir Blaine may be appealed to as the savior of the party. The fact that his wife and daughters are disappointed at his refusal to allow his name to be used lends color to the claim that he could be induced to re-
 consider his determination not to accept

The Boston Herald, discussing the
political outlook, says:
Indiana Is q growing state, and this
makes an element of doubt in her vote;
but though the Republicans had a popular
majority there two years ago, it was a
very small one, end easily accounted for.
by Democratic folly. OF the four con
tested northern states. we should be In
clined to hold that Republican chances
were better In both Connecticut and New
Jerseyr than they are in Indiana"
That may do for a long range opinion,
but it will not bear scrutiny. First,
while 1t is true the Republican majority
plurality of two years ago, in Indiana,
was not very large numerically, it was
large considering the circumstances. The
Republican plurality was $500 in o
total vote of 474, 351. Mr.. Cleveland's
majority In New York was only 1,047 Iii
q total vote of LII, 900, yet The Herald
expects him to carry New York again on
the strength of that meager majority.
Under the circumstances, q Repub-
lican majority of one in Indiana
would have been a great victory. The
Herald says the Republican victory in
1885 is easily accounted for by Demo-
cratic folly" In SO far as that is true it
per te;asaas Rep ifhhiiiaan victory In 1855.
Democratic folly in this state is not only
a continuing influence, but q cumulative
one The party has carried over the
stock of two years ago and added largely
to 1t. The Herald could hardly be ex-
pected to know the true inwardness of
Indiana politics, but 1t should not fall
into the error of supposing that the crop
of Democratic folly in this state ever
fsAs. The crop now harvested or in sight
is unusually large. Finally, we fail to
see why Republican chances should be
better in either Connecticut OF New Jer-
sey than in this state. The Democrats
carried both of those states in 1884. They
carried them again in 1885, but at the
legislative election In 1887 New Jersey
was carried by the Republicans. The Re-
publicans have q better foothold and
prospect In Indiana than they have in
either of the other states named. They
ought to carry all three, but they certainly
will carry this state If the national Re.
publican convention is wise enough to
recognize the fact that Indiana is the bat.

The Union County pitch.


Elk Point, April 21-Hon. VIM. L..
Joy he's been looking up the legal status
OF the somewhat famous ditch question.
The situation is about as follows:
Something more than q year age a ditch
was constructed, beginning at the lake
bed just south Of Kiplinger's, running
east three miles, making q right angle,
running thence into the Sioux river,
Gen. Hughes passed upon the princi-
pal legal point in the construction of
the ditch, viz: that the improvement
was of pubic utility. THIS point is CON-
coded by MIR. Joy. Since the overflow
this spring the ditch has carried the
water so rapidly from the lake that the
foot OF the ditch could not hold it,
and it is claimed by residents
and the attorney that about
4 900 acres of land has been and now lie
Overlooked and rendered untenable
for this year at least. one half being
grasH lands. The @nnink made ..hg Ahe
attorney is this, that the ditch was and
Is improperly constructed, in that the
first one and o half miles ID is about
twice as deep as the last two miles. And
that for the first two miles OF the route
she fall is about twice aB great az the fall
OF the balance OF the line; and further.
that there should have been no right
angle allowed in the construction, and
that the excavations should have been
thrown TO both banks, thereby combining
the water within narrow limits, instead
OF being thrown oil to the north or high.
est bank OF the ditch in order to utilize
the earth in the construction of q road
way. II is claimed the ditch cost much
more than was necessary, but this may
be accounted for in q measure from the
fact that it was an unusual improvement
and shoee engaged in the construction
we're poyices in that line of work.
Elk Point city paid about 68 per sent
of the cost OF the ditch. Many tex-pay-
ers kicked very vigorously. but finally
paid. except two or three who pay quite
heavy taxes.
II IS understood that the farmers dam.

points entering into the case, and every
step in the proceedings will be watched
with interest. A petition has been large.

quest will no doubt be granted.

TERRIBLE TRAeEDr.


A Young Iowa Farmer Kills his Mother
and hen Commits Suicide.
Lehiars April 2l-An awful double
tragedy wss enacted in Marion town.
ship this county, resulting in the death
of Mrs. Fred Held, and her son Philip.
The father cred Held, died some time
ago, and it appears that there has been
some trouble between mother and son
about the sale end disposition OF some
real estate left by him. Yesterday after
noon the subject was brought up, Philip,
his 10-year old sister and his mother be-
ing the only occupants OF che house.
The son grew angry and used bad Lam
guage and finally drew q revolver and
fired OF his mother, the shot taking eff
feet in her side. She turned to go ont
the door when he fired again, the ball
striking the unfortunate woman in the
back, and she fell dead on the doorstep
without uttering q word.
The sight of his dead mother, and. q
realization Of his terrible deed, Brought
the, young man out of his state OF anger
and to . fail understanding Of what he
had done. He gazed q moment, aud just
as his sisters, who had been to 3LeMars
With q gentleman named Dolliver, en-
tered the yard he rushed up stairs to his
room, seated himself on the bed, PLACED
the muzzle OF she weapon in his mouth
and pulled the trigger. Death was in
Simultaneous and he never uttered a word
In explanation OF his awful crime. The
two sisters who arrived at the gate lust
in time TO see their mother fall dead in
the open doorway. were SO horror-etricke1
and prostrRted by the terrible affair thai
but little information could be gained
from them of the causes that are sup
posed to have prompted their brother't
action.
Mrs. Held we. about 80. years old and
her son was 2S. The farm where tht
tragedy occurred was about Eve mile,
