UNION CITY, Oct. 21--Mr. NJ. j. Murray, the
talented young Irishmsn from Massachusetts,
spoke to a crowded house at the opera-hall in
this place last evening. The meeting was PRE-
sided over and the speaker introduced by Mr..
Thomas Mcmahon. an Irish Republican Of this

convincing. For two hours he held
the audience to the closest attention, and his
telling points were responded to with hearty ap-
plause. and when he closed he received an ova-
ton of cheers. He was followed in a short
speech by Col. A. d. Shaw, q railroad man from
Brightwood, who, from personal knowledge and
acquaintance with General Harrison, and his
record regarding laboring men. completely re-
futed the slandsrous lies circulated regarding
him. Mr.. Shaw's remarks were well received,
and he, in q marked manner, captured the sym
pathies of the audience. The "dollar-adayr lie

JEF~FERsoNvILLE, Oct. 20.-Ths Democrats
down this way srs desperate aud will use every
means in their power, foul or fair. TO carry the
State for Cleveland. Having got the worst of
the joint-discussion scheme, which they origin
atsd to induce people to come out and hear their
frse-trade doctrines, they are endeavoring to
concoct something elsa. Their latest scheme is
an effort to intiinidste old soldiers, but in that
they will make a dismal failure. Col. George
F. Howard, brother of Jack Howard, of south
ern prison fame, who holds a subor-
dinate position In one of the de-
partments al Washington, returned from
that city last week. A few days AGO he ap-
preached Henry Launnis, an old soldier, and
asked il he intended voting the Democratic tick
ct, to which Launnis replied that he would vote
for Harrison and Morton. it being against his
principles to vote for any person who is an
enemy to those who fought to preserve the
Union. Launnis draws a pension, and is an in
offensive old man who does not NEEDLE with tho
affairs of others. When he told Howard he
would vote as he pleased, the bully grew furious
and threatened that he would have the old sol
dier's pension stopped as soon as he returns to
Washington.

DANvILLE, Oct 2l.-The Democratic rally at
Pittsboro, Hendricks county, last Saturday,
came near bearing bloody fruit. The Danville
delegation got so "enthused" at the meeting that
oa their way home they undertook to 'clean
out" the Republicans who dared to live along
the route to Danville. With this end in view
they halted at the residence of o farmer named
Boltzclaw, near the l., B. 4 W. railroad cross
ing, six or seven miles northeast of Danvile,
and attacked the old gentleman and his
three sons On their own premises.
The bellicose Democrats invaded the
front yard, and were met by the Hol,zclaw
boys. who soon convinced them that they were
equal to the emergency. The boys were pres.
entity reinforced by q couple Of young men
named Proctor, and the fight became general,
though it didn't last long. In five minutes the
attacking party was badly whipped. One of
them at last drew g revolver and began firing
straight at the Holtzclaw residence. One of the
Holtzclaw boys came near getting q bullet in
his face. and rushing into the house he soon re-
appeared with a shotgun, which he
timed at the retreating gang and fred.
A man named Hall. an ex-rebel
of old Virginia, was severely peppered with
shot, though not disabled to the extent of check
inc his retreat. In q few minutes the entire
Democratic gang had disappeared in the ada
cent corn-felds and woods, and the field Of bat
tie was left wholly in possession OF its defend.
ers. On the ground was picked up the follow
ing spoils left by the enemy: One ovsrcoat,
two dress coats, three Cleveland hats, two pin,
bottles partly filled with whisky. one pair OF
brass knucks, and three bandanna handkerchiefs
Some of the retreating crowd mounted wagons
and drove home on o dead gallcp, leav-
ing the women to walk. When the
scattered forces of tho Democracy ar
rived at Danville there was scarcely
one who hadn't a bloody nose, q blscked eye OF
some stray bird shot in his CARCASS. One of the
fellows came into town loudly cursine the Union
soldiers. and lie was promptly knocked down by
George Long, who got his hand in ut that kind
of work during the war. The fellow who was
struck was an ex-rebel. The trouble that began
at the l., B. q W. crossing has not yet ended.
The dranken gang who started the riot will be
handled in the courts.

Tho Eastern Republican View.

The vote for Ben Harrison in the Republican Convention has forever dissipated the Chinese hugaboo in American politics. The California brawlers declared that they could rot accept Sherman or Allison on account of their pro-Chinese record. But they finally accepted General Ben Harrison, whose record on the treaty excluding the Chinese was as pronounced against that treaty as that of Hawley of Connecticut. Harrison is alleged to have even voted for the naturalization of the Chinese. Now, most people in the Eastern and Middle States rather admire General Harrison for his courage in standing up for what he deemed to be right. and in behalf of poor and defenseless foreigners.

Jake Backer Killed.

Jake Backer, a stockman we'll
 known here, was killed last week. The Tombstone Prospector gives the following particulars of the killing |: Last Wednesday a tragedy occur red near the San Bernardino ranch in this county, resulting in the death of Jake Backer at the hands of Green c. Bush. It appears that bad feeling has existed between the men for some months, and during this time Backer has upon several occasions abused Bush and threat ened his life. Or the day of the killing he rode up to Bush's house and shot his dog and asked him whether he wants some of it.. Af- ter again abusing Bush he rode off, but only a short distance when he returned towards the house. See ing him do this Bush went into the house and got his gun, and when Backer rode up the fight began, resulting in the latter's death. Bush came in here last night and gave himself up to the
 Sheriff. He has the reputation of being an exceedingly quiet, we'll tempered man, who during the eigh- teen months he has resided in that
 vicinity where he has a ranch, has never had a difficulty of any kind. Backer also owns small bunch of cattle in that section, and leaves a

Will Give up the Indians.

The commanding officer at San Carlos Indian agency has replied to the application of Sheriff Fryer of this county, for the surrender of certain Indians against whom in- dictments are pending, as follows ::
 "In reply to your letter of June 21st, 1 am instructed by the com> manding officer of the department to inform you that the Indians you name are here and will be delivered to you here upon presentation of the necessary papers. Very res pectfully, etc."
 From this course it would appear that the military authorities have discovered that the civil courts are abundantly able to deal with the Apache offenders in a most impar- tial and lawful manner, and that the people who have suffered at their hands exhibit no vindictive spirit in dealing with their crimes. How mortified this fact must make those eastern philanthropists feel who held up thelr pale hands in holy horror at the very idea of turn- ing over these bloody ficnds to the vengeance of an outraged and Claw less" people to answer for their crimes.-Florence Enterprise.
The St. Johns herald., 1888-08-09

THE grand jury of Pinal county has indicted old Eskiminzin and a number of other Indians for horse stealing. "Old Skim" is an Apache who, years ago, severed his tribal relations and has been living on the San Pedro, where he has accumu- lated considerable property. He is regarded by many who know him we'll, as a shrewd, accomplished scoundrel, who, while possessing friendship for his white neighbors, has been suspected of sympathiz- ing with and rendering material aid to the Apaches when on the war path. He would make frequent visits to Tucson and buy large quantities of ammunition for which he had no use, and of which he could render no satisfactory ac- count. His band declare that he shall not be arrested, and trouble may result if he should defy the Sheriff, for Jerry Fryer is a reso' lute and determined officer, who generally accomplishes what he un- dertakes, although he has not the reputation of killer" and is not fond of six-shooter plays nor boasts of his achievements.
The St. Johns herald., 1888-08-09

GRAVE apprehensions of serious troubles with the Apaches are felt by those best informed regarding recent developments at the San Carlos reservation.
 The bloody Indians are again on the war path, but the number of renegades who have left the reser- vation or their whereabouts, is not known.
 Recent dispatches state that it is highly probable before many days Arizona will again be startled by the report that some of her citizens have been murdered, and the tragic scenes familiar to all old settlers re-enacted. Gen. Miles was at San Carlos last week endeavoring to communicate with the renegades and induce them to return to the agency. Troops have been sent in pursuit, with instructions to exter- minate all Indians found off the reservation, but past experience proves the inability of the military to cope successfully with the h. dians when they have reached the mountains. As usual the Indians left in small squads the better to escape capture, and were we'll sup piled with the most improved arms and ammunition, and if they are in earnest and intent on evil they aa, for an indefinite period, defy the government, satiate their inordinate thirst for human sacrifce-commit, with impunity, every crime known to their savage nature. and when weary of their carnival of blood, return to their reservation to re- ceive immunity from a generous government, recuperate their ex- hausted natures and prepare for another campaign.
 Some time since a number of h. dians were tried at Phoenix for at-
