COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
TGEE Gospel. OE SCARE,

The biggest Republican gun in the
campaigns of 1880 and 1884 is spiked
for 1888. High above the noise and
racket of both those conflicts was heard
the roar of this heavy field-piece--
danger to our business interists!
That big gun was kept booming for
G ortied eight years ago, and Tor Blaine
four years ago. Without doubt ii de-
Seatol Hancock in 1880, and without
doubt it did more than any other Re-
publican artillery to bring Blaine so
ncn- to success in 1884.
From every Republican platform and
Trcss the business intErists were warned
that Democratic administration could
not be safely trusted with the manage
1nent Of the national affairs. Our ii.
mances w ull not be kept straight, tue
treasury would not be III safe keeping,
the credit of the country would lie dam
aged, foreign investors would lose con
1iLencc in our notional securities, and
hence would fellow commercial alarm,
possibly panic, and hard times.
That gun, we repeat, is spiked. A
Democratic administration hns beem
tried and not found wanting of either
the ability or the purpose to give the
country Il good, orderly and efficient
infringement Of It's affairs. Under it
the business inicrists have been free
from disturbance, and have enjoyel II
period of healthy aad solid progress,
which compares fnvorably with any
period nf like length under Republican
rule. The treasury has been we'll man
aged, aud IS OH n thoroughly sound
footing The great departments have
all been conducte with economy and
efficiency, and without scandal.
Therefore it will not be possible Ia
get up the business scare of four or
eight years ago i'll this campaign. The
pnrtisan plea that one-half tao people
Of the United States are not to be en-
trusted with it's government will not be
put forward this year, or if put forward
viii be laughed at Boston Globe.

law on all foreign labor this miserable
state of affairs will never cease Il Cur
son Appeal.
Now you have struck the right chord
and We heartily agree with you. The
only way to protect American labor is to
restrict the importation Of the paup-r
l"borers Of Europe. 1t is not the tariff
that protects the laborer, that protects
the employer of labor only, while the uu-
restricted immigration of foreigners
'']ta7e beaten down the wages over 90
per cent" We favor the protection Of
the American laborer, not by a high
tariff which benefits the manufacturer
only, but by restricting the importation
of "Hungnrians, Italians AMI other for
eigncrs," which overstocks the labor
market and reduces the wages of
American laborers almost to the starv a.
ton point.

Rather Unusual.

A Washington dispatch of the Goth
instant says:
Congressman Matson Of Indiana has
declined to accept the silver service pie.
scented him Saturday by the employees Of
the Government Printing Office, on the
ground that it is not proper for him to
accept any reward for the performance
of the duty imposed upon him ns Mem
b.r of Congress, and that it would set q
very bad precedent"
G.. G.. Matson was elected to the 50th
Congress from the Greencastle district
1t is scarcely necessary to state that he
is democrat.

BRITISH INTERESTS.

Republican papers are anxious to

iAyily Interested in the ,lectiou OF
Cleveland, ani Mr.. Blaine says English
papers arc unanimous in their desire for
the SUCCESS Of the Democratic party; but

ment which may DO termed 1.-The woman In

She Is knocking at all the doors Of COM
mcrcial enterprise, and there are very few
nto which she has not already forced an en-
rance. Tho results seem to indicate that,
beyond a doubt, she has come to stay.
She can not perhaps often reach the
evers which move tho great driving wheels

tant factor In the minor but scarcely less
important machinery Of detail.

so capable and efficient that her sphere Of
usefulness has been gradually enlarged,
unhl she now has probably a closer acquaint-
ance with Armour's extended business

neither physical nor mental stamina to con-
duct n large business.

ANARCHISTS ARRESTED.

Three Bohemiaua, John Hereck, Frank
Chepeck and Frank Chebawa, were ar
,ested on Tuesday, in Chicago, ILL.,, ,charg-
ID with being concerned IN plot to kill
several judges and blow up the Board OF
Trade building. About twenty deter
mined murderers were in the conspiracy
and they were at certain hour after
midnight to be at the homes of Grinneli.l
tray, Bonfeld, Frank Walker, General
stiles and Others, prominent in the pros
ecution of the anarchists. The dynamite
was to be placed beneath the houses of
these and the powerful explosives were
to be touched off simultaneously. In the
houses of the three arrested men numer-
ous weapons were found and enough
dynamite to blow up Chicago. 1t is
stated in this connection that the tn ee
men were present at the Haymarket meet
ing and H. II. Hroneck procured the
dynamite and bomb from friend of the
house who was present. When aske(
what he had done with the rest of this
stuff he replied quite readily that he had
thrown it into the river. 1t is supposed
that the stuff found was the same given
him on that fatal evening. Hroneck and
Chebawa were intimate friends of Levi:
Lingg, and both were arrested after the
Haymarket riot.

A PRISON CONGRESS.

At the session Of the National Prison
Association held in Boston, Mass, the
secretary read the lists of all persons
registered, numbering 1859 in all. This
is the largest attendance ever known at
q prison congress. The states represented
were: Alabama, Colorado, Connecticut,
Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas,
Maryland, Massachusetts,, Michigan,
Minnesota, New Hampshire, New York,
New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode
Island, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia,
Wisconsin and the Provinces. A discus
sion arose on the 0'Neill bill presented
in Congress, and x-Governor Bullock, of
Georgia, said that the o'Neill bill would
compel the Abandonment of the whole
system Of leasing convicts in vogue in
the South. He predicted that the
Southern members Of Congress would
vote against the bill when they saw it
would compel the support Of the prison
srs in idleness.
