a young man clad in a gaudy, buff
colored suit with overgaiters to match,
stood leaning against the bar at the Hoff-
man house the other evening. He smoked
a cigarette with dainty grace and blew the
vapor through his Grecian nose. He
seemed perfectly at peace with himself
and was apparently pleased because his
fiashy attire and self assertive manner at
tracted so much attention. Billy Edwards,

We print today the rather ssnsrtsapal
kilograms relative to the claims of some of
Mr.. Blaine's friends. We do not believe
{ at Mr.. Blaine has given any such intima-
tion. as is imputed to him, and do not be-
eve that he will. He has said that he is
h0t, and would not be, candidate for the
presidency and every body believes that he
meant every word he said In that letter.
If the people insist, however, on making
him candidate, in the face of all his pro-
testatiens, and should nominate him then
1t will be In order for Mr.. Blaine to speak.
We do not believe he will speak till then,
unless 1t may be to re-affirm what he has
already said.

| We take, from an exchange, the follow
ing editorial and correspondence and COM
mend 1t to the careful consideration OF
every workingman in Springfield. We
want TO call the particular attention of our
readers TO a significant fact 1t is worthy
of careful, study. 1t is of more value than
a dozen speeches on either side of the Ques-
ton. The capitalists of England. the pub
| lie men who serve them, the professors and
journalists, are showing great anxiety
about the introduction OF free trade into
this country. But how about the working
men OF England who have personal knowl-
edge OF the influence of that policy upon
their own condition and earnings? Testi-
mony on that point has not been wanting,
but It dees not often happen that as much
of sound argument is condensed into a few
lines as Is found in the following letter
from British workingman and an active
leader among them:

morning at O'Clock Henry Gotzian's
granery, containing 400 bushels of oats
together with eight horses, were burned
at his farm nea Emerado. Ed Hansen,
superintendent of the farm, made an
effort to get the horses out. He got
them as far as the door, but the animals
would go no further. Hansen was Sc
verely burned about the face and hands.
He saved his eyes by throwing a cloth
over them. Three large stacks of hay
also burned. Tn fire was probably oc-
casiOned by sparks from pipe of one
OF the threshers who had gone in the
field to work.
