WooD PULP MuLER-Dr. Warner
Miller is coming out strong as humor-
list. There is solemn drollery abso-
luiely irresistible about the speeches with
which he regales the rural districts.
What could be funnier, for instance. than
his grave pretense that the Republican
party of New York In general, and be
himself In especial particular, are deeply
concerned for temperance, and have
meant and mean To do something great
and good for 1t Exchange.

"THE Pivot" or THE GREAT BATTLE
The three tickets in the field for the
other local offices to be filed at next
months election are likely TO call forth
quite as much effort and labor as will be
developed in the selection of the Mayor.
Tammsny Hall has nominated a full
ticket. The County Democracy has
nominated iull ticket, and the Republi-
cans have done the same. The fight be
tween the three organizations will be one
which will strain TO The ultermost the re-
sources Of each, and will put to the prac-
teal test of ballot-box decision The
claims OF each as 10 membership and

bitterly contested, and the outcome will

Colonel John McAnerney, electoral
large for the State OF New Jersey. has
written stirring letter to II. c. Page,
ESQ. chairman Democratic Central As
ISOLATION, Bergen Point, n. j., which Ia
published in full in the Jersey City Argus
Of the 18th instant. Among strong points
are the following
THE leading newspapers and men OF
that party (Republicsn), such as Chase,
McCulloch, Curtin, Beecher, and others,
have been compelled to withdraw and
denounce its methods. Its present man
ayers seek 10 regain the control OF the
Government by stampeding the working
men on the tariff issue. and by a silly
appeal 10 our Irish fellow citizens. Their
placards, political pay envelopes, and
other gentle coercive measures, take us
back TO the days of feudalism, when the
master controlled his men and hounds
The working men of 1888 will sternly re-
buke this dictation on the 9Th Of Novem-
Der next"
And again he says " II sounds absurd
10 hear these men posing as the friends
of the laboring man and simple republi
can government, when they force our
working people TO compete with hordes |
of imported contract labor, while they
fawn before the aristocratic circles of |
Europe and sigh for a stronger Govern
ment with protection for class and social |
distinction firmly believe these peo-
pie have so little regard for the republi-
can institutions Of this country that
enough title could be sold to them to pay
off the National debt within thirty days"
Colonel McAnerney is Richmond
man, and commanded the Local Baitsl-
ion here during the war. After the war
he removed to Jersey City, where be has
since resided He has been very pros
porous in business, and now his fellow
citizens there have honored him by
making him an elec,or-at-large.

SOME PREGNANT FACTs-Here are
some considerations which we are afraid
do not have their due weight upon the
canvass:
Ten years ago our interest account was
fifty millions year less than il is now.
To reduce that interest the country made
many sacrifices. After all these I'M
grudged sacrifices We spent then $ls5
900, 900 a year less than now, when we
have an expenditure of S42l 000.0 900 a
year. This is within $27, 600 900 of what
England expends And yet England has
a national debt twice as large, the most
powerful navy in the world, large
standing army, the government of q
great colonial empire. II Is larger than
that of Germany, whose army dominates
Europe
These appropriations mean simply
profligate legislation.-N. Y. Herald.
UYIoS Is THE CRY.-The Herald has
the following keynote :"
"A union of intelligence, not the mad,
impossible government based upon the
fanaticism OF New England and the
Congo barbarism of South Carolina. A
return of the Republicans means re-
turn of that domination, II We are to
believe Foraker and Blaine.
"a Union wherein the laborer owns
his homestead unmenaced by robber rail
road barons; wherein labor Is not har
ried by trusts and monopolies; where
money does not form governing caste,
to rule in time, as castles have ever done,
with the stern, imperial hand"

CHEYENNE, Wy. T., Oct 23.--A cowboy
who rode in from the Snake river country

man named Adams, and companion known
in these parts as "Dutchy," two hunters who

R. N. PULSIFER.
HIS DEATH A MYSTERY TO THE
GENERAL PUBLIC,
SOME BELIEVING HE DIED By HIS
OWN HAND.

He Had Considerable Money Invested in
Numerous Enterprises, but Could Real
ixe Nothing on Them at Present--Unable
to Face the Inevitable, He is Thought to
Have suIcided.
Boston, Oct 23 Col. R. n. Pulsifer, the
largest proprietor and business manager of
the Boston Herald, died mysteriously at his
country home in Islington Saturday morn
ing. There is a well founded belief that he
suicided by shooting himself through the
heart, although his friends and relatives are
using every endeavor to keep the facts
secret.
Mr.. Pulsifer was deeply involved finan-
cially His standing in the community was
of the highest, and he was looked on by many
as the soundest man financially in the conf
munity, his investments being followed by
a host OF admirers.
His enterprises were too numerous He
was at the head of the gigantic steam heat
ing concern just started here; had mines out
west, railroads in the south, street car lines
in Charleston, s. c.; mica, gold and iron
mines in Georgia, and pine lands in North
Carolina, all promising concerns that would
pay heavily in the future, but were dead
property now. He needed ready money, and
could not get along without selling, for
everything was mortgaged to the hilt. To
sell was suicide, for he could not realize 20
per cent as the anticipated results. He
must have money or make an assignment.
He saw himself on a precipice. He lacked
courage to live.
The announcement of Col R. M Pulsifer's
sudden and mysterious death caused sensa-
tion on the street and in the hotels. There
are only seven persons who have seen the
body, and only these seven know whether
Col. Pulsifer ended his existence with
bullet.
Sunday afternoon Medical Examiner Mead
was asked by brother physician whether
he was sure death was natural He hesitated
minute, and then said: "Yes, guess it
wasn
The undertaken denied the story Of the
shooting, and finally said that Mr. Pulsifer
died of heart disease. But in spite of this
statement it is given out on excellent author
ity that Mr.. Pulsifer went TO his room at
Islington, put on his dressing gown and shot
himself through the heart.
1t is rumored that he left letter to his
wife, The fact that he had carefully hung
up his coat and had drawn the easy chair
under the chandelier, where he could see to
read, leads to the superstition that he delib-
Grated long while before taking his life, If
he died by his own hand.
1t is said that Col Pulsifer had life insur-
ance policies aggregating $500, 900, payable
to his widow. He had been careful to keep
all the premiums paid up, and the policies
were In force month ago

He Asks the brotherhood to Unite with
Other Labor Organizations.
RICHMOND, Va, Oct IN Chief Arthur, Of
the Brotherhood Of Locomotive Engineers,
was shown the Phiadelphia dispatch CON
tanning General Master Workman Powder
ly's letter to him rendering greetings and
asking if the brotherhood would consent to
fraternal cooperation with other labor or
ganizations with view to the proper and
equitable adjustment of disputes. and said
he did not know what would be done on the
subject.
"Our convention consists of large body
of men of various views" Mr.. Arthur added
land it would be'idle to'prophesy what action
may be taken on Mr. Powderly's letter. 1t
is our desire TO have some unity of action
among our organizations for self protection.
The Burlington strike taught us that rail-
roads used other organizations as club TO
kill us. Something probably like the pro
posed plan Of federation will be agreed upon,
but that is only an opinion"
"Will the federation plan include other
than railway organizationsr
II think it will include all the railroad or
ganizations though, of course, we wish to be
friendly with all labor organizations
There seemed to be only "a cold comfort"
for Powderly in what Arthur said

Pine Straw Tagging For Cotton Bales.

CHARLESTON, S. c., Oct 2S.-Among the
cotton received here Saturday was one lot of
fifteen bales from Cheraw, S. c., which was
covered in bagging made from pine straw.
The entire lot was quickly disposed Of and
readily accepted by the Sorters. 1t is prob
able that by next spring over ten factories
for the manufacture of pine straw bagging
and mating will be in operation between
Raleigh, N. c., and New Orleans. The
adaptability of the bagging to the covering
of cotton will result in wonderful revolu-
tion in the south. 1t is made of the needles
or leaves of the pine found in southern for
ests. These needles can be made into cotton
covering at cost which, it is claimed, is
bound to run jute bagging out of the United
States. It is further asserted that the green
needles yield oil enough to pay the entire
cost of this treatment.
