Sentimental Politics Disappearing.

st. Louis Globe Democrat Dtcp.)
There is one feature of the situa-
ton in the South which the Demo.
cratic organs are disposed to over.
look or to dismiss ia an indifferent
fashion. We refer to the character
of the Republican gains which are
gradually and surely changing the
political attitude Of the border
state. Ii is not by negro votes that
these changes are being wrought,
nor yet by the votes OF white men
who took the UuiOn side during
the war, but mainly by the votes OF
ex.COntederate soldiers and their
sons. Thousands of such citizens
voted the Repub icaD ticket
this year III Missouri, Arkansas,
Tennessee, Maryland and the two
Yirginias. They did it on the
ground that the sime has gone by
for supporting the Democratic
party solely because OF its Con
iederate record, when in all prac'
tical respects its doctrines and pur
poses are opposed to their views
and interests. The position OF the
Republican party on the tarln
question aud other Issues OF present
moment meets their approval.

ORIGINAL AND BORROWED.

General Harrison's inauguration
bids fair to eclipse every similar
event that has happe ned in this
country.
The United States is credited IN
1887 with 1884 fires, involving a
loss OF s119,2O9,9SO IN property,
with an insurance of S6O,S5O,55S.
The Prohibition vote for Presi'
dent has increased about 100000
over the vote of 1884. St. John
received 151, 900 four years ago,
and Fisk's is estimated at about
100000 this year.
Washington Territory is said to
be even a better place for girls, no
matter Low homely, than was Cal
ifornia in its early days. Dat IN
Washington Territory it is said to
be almost impossible for a girl to
remain single even for a month.
The Hon. Roger Q. Mills is un-
decided as to whether he will re
introduce his Freetrade bill or not.
Inasmuch as it can't hurt his party
any worse than it has done already,
Mr.. Mills might just as well bring
the bill forward again and have
some fun with it.
Senators who are presumed TO
be authorized to speak for General
Harrison say there will be no ex-
ira session of the Fifty-6rst Con
gress called If the present Congress
will pass satisfactory revenue
reduction bill, and also admit quail
fed Territories as new States, with
Dekota divided. Should this legis-
latiOn fail, however, an extra SEES
sion viii be called.
One or two Democratic papers
down in Congressman Mills dis
trict are setting up the charge that
that eminent statesman was so
much in danger Of defeat at the
late election that he had to trade
oil the Democratic candidates tor
the Legislature in some instances
for votes for himself. He got
through, however. 1t would have
been a pretty serious free trade
calamity if the solid South had been

PROGRESS IN THE SOUTH.
ITS sOLIDITY ENDED If THIS
PAPERS ADVICE Is FOLLOWED.

Charleston Nows and Courier (Dem.)
We find more Southern people
than had been suspected 9etermin-
ing their votes upon what they
consider the business interests OF
the country. West Virginia, for
exam pie, IS very nearly if not quite,
Repu blican. Sneering At West
Virginia is foolish. The West Viz
gInians have not Suddenly lost in
terest in their Southern breLbern;
they have divided upon economic
questions. The election of a Re
publican congressman from the
Chattanooga District does not
mean that Chattanooga has sud
denly forgotten the South, but
that many millions are invested
there in iron indu Stries, and the
people believed, wisely or unwisely,
that President Clevcland's policy
meant financial loss to them. They
voted, as they believed, with their
money.
In the recent election Democratic
losses and Republican gains IN the
South means interesting attentions
to business. The NelcS ant Courier
believed firmly in Mr. Cleveland's
policy as set forth in his famous
message, as best for the whole
country; but this faith in the
Presidents policy does not hinder
us from seeing that thousands Of
good Southern men did not agree
with the policy Of the President
Some OF our Southern leaders
should hold their peace for a time.
They are now rather oil their
balance.
One weader" speaks Of the
"chalce to he pressed to Southern
lips.7 Sensible men take no stock
IN this "disastcr' business. The
extreme and bitter men OF the Re
publican party are in the minority,
and are, for the most part editing
provincial newspapers or preach
Ing politics in provincial pGlpits.-
At least, we hope so. General
Harrison being a man of common
sense, will not ask extremists and
doctrinalres to tell him what he
may do. The Republican party
not being led by children or old
women-will not risk It's renewed
lease Of power by rash experiments
In revolutionary legislation. The
Republican party does not wish to
die in 1892. The last two elections
show both parties now marrow are
the margins.
Republicans have planted mil
lions on millions Of dollars IN the
South within the last few leaIs.-
Their money is in mines, factories,
banks, railroads, mortgages OF
many sorts, bonds and stocks of
States, cities, corporations. Less
in South Carolina than elsewhere I.
All this means that the mOneyed
mGn-whO carried this election
will tolerate 10 nonsense about re.
recOnstructing the south. These
investors no more wish to lose their
money than the party desires de-
feat in 1892 Let us go to work t.
build up safely every element OF
greatness and prosperity in our
section. Let US preach the Gospel
of Hope, and practice the Gospel
of Work. If our Southern leaders
have only dreary lamentations for
us, let them keep silent; or spend
the Winter IN the South OF France
or some other place where dream
ers, lOungers, inyalids and played
out public men do cOngregate.

New YORK, March IT, Especial. +
A terrible malady, sudden in its attack

horses of this city. Even while the
bells were tolling yesterday for the fu-
neral of their protector, Henry Bergh,
agents of the society he founded were
ending with bullets the sufferlngS OF
many animals that had dropped in the
snow. Others were lifted into the big
red ambulances of the society and car
ried to their owners stables or to the

call the disease blood poisoning. There
are no indications of its approach.
a horse is being driven along the street:
Without warning, the hind quarters OF
the animal begin to tremble violently,
then the hind legs give way, and down
goes the brute. Nine times out OF ten
the disease is fatal. The sutferings are
terrible to behold, and often the horse
beats it's brains out in its agony, A
bullet then is mercy. The World re-
porter saw no less than five horses In
the worst stages of the disease at the
New York Veterinary Hospital yester-
day. They were strapped down secure

TELLS A STRANGE STORY.
A Missing Minneapolis Man Turns VI
After a Long Absence.

MINNEAPOLIs, Mimi, March IT,
Especial. Sylvester Hall, builder,
who disappeared over two years ago,
turned up yesterday, having come from
the Rochester Insane Asylum where he
had been confined. In August, 1885,
three weeks after his marriage, Mr..
Hall left home for the Boston block,
telling his wife he was expecting to
take a contract for the erection of a
row of buildings. That was the last
seen of him until yesterday. Search
for the missing man was instituted and
kept up for months but without sue
cess. The matter was placed in the
hands of the police, but after some
time they gave up the hunt, not being
able to. find clew. Private detectives
were put to work on the case
but they were also completely baffled
Hall cleared up the matter in a strange
story. He said that after leaving the
architects office he went out to the
short line bridge at the western limits
of st. Paul to look at the location of
the houses he was to build and before
returning he sat do En to rest. Just
then st. Paul policeman in search OF
Henry Jones, an escaped lunatic, came
up and arrested him. 1t was case of
mistaken identity and he was taken to
the court at st. Paul, identified as Jones
by three men and sent to the Rochester
insane asylum. He was given odd jobs
of carpenter work and kept in the in
stitution until March 4, 1888, when ex-
pert examiners pronounced him well,
and he was discharged. Hall is boiling
with indignation over the terrible
treatment and will bring action for
heavy damages against the st. Paul
authorities.

MARRIAGE LICENSES
Mckinley Not to be Delegate.

A special from Columbus to the Chi
cago Tribune says: "The latest defec-
ton of Sherman supporters is that of
Mai Mckinley, who refuses to allow
the use of his name as delegate. This
action is the more unaccountable from
the fact that the major has attended
every National convention in the last
fifteen years and has always taken a
prominent part, several times repre-
senting Ohio on the committee of reso-
lutions. Maj. Mckinley is among the
leading Republicans of the State, and
his refusal to champion the candidacy
of Sherman in the role Of a delegate
bodies no good for the latter.
"His action will likely have the effect
of securing delegates from his district
inimical to Sherman. His position will
be tower of strength to the opponents
of the senator. The detection of Maj.
Mckinley is followed by w. II. West,
the blind man eloquent, a representa-
tive and leading Republican, who pre-
sented the name of Blaine at the Chi
cago convention in 1884. Judge West
announces that he is taking no part in
politics this year."

points raised by counsel for the defense
As to the grounds on which new trial
should be granted. Considerable stress
is placed by the defense on eligibility

who it is said, stated prior to the trial
that "Stanyard was guilty dog and
Oupht to be hung" When called as
Juror Dunn qualified himself and, as
the defense knew who and what he
was. it is not believed the Court will
ever allow them to take the advantage
of it. Last evening Judge johnson
sent for Dunn and interrogated him
under oath in the presence of council
for prosecution and the defense. Dunn
stated as he did before going on the
iurv, that he had never formed or ex-

exnected now that Judge Johnson
will pass on the motion
for a new trial early the coming week.
