by A. w. Jones and A. c. Ridgway
few weeks since, about a mile and
quarter above Hecla Junction on
the Calumet branch.
1t had evidently caught its antlers
in the telegraph line which was
down at this point, while crossing
the track, and in its efforts to free
itself had only become more hope

affair that has ever happened in this
community occurred this evening.
Phillip Thompson, while trying to
start fire in his cook stove, spilled
some oil on live coals, which blazed

Hunt was in the house with him and
made all possible efforts to rescue
Thompson but was unsuccessful and
was compelled to tear his own
clothes off IN order to keep from
burning.
After tearing his clothes off he ran
about quarter of mile for assis-
tance; the run, with breathing the
smoke, have about exhausted him
and 1t is doubtful if he will recover

wards recovered, the arms, head and
legs, being burned entirely off. He

The following truthful observation
is from the Pueblo Chieftain and
applies equally as well TO Lamar as
to Pueblo: "No paper can be publish
ed without home patronage, and
every man is interested in keeping
up home paper. If railroad or
factory is wanted, the newspapers are
expected to work for it. If public
meeting is wanted for any purpose,
the newspaper is called upon for q
free notice. If any of the societies
have supper or reception of any
kind, the newspaper is expected to
give the necessary notice. The
newspaper must puff the schools, and
everything else, to advance the inter
es:s of the business of the place,
and then give them a handsome no.
tice when they pass away. And yet
some of them do nothing to keep a
home paper"

ing of party candidates on the fifth.
Prowers county which is strongly
republican elected a majority of the
democratic candidates Otero coun-
ty which qestionably has a repub-
lican majority, chose several demo-
Gratis for officers There were other
issues seemingly to the people of the
counties in southeastern Colorado
besides the single one of politics,
personal matters and reasons entered
largely into tho canvass and the peo.
pie telt that the year was one when
no obligation to strict adherence to
party should control them, conse-
quently the officers elected IN the
various counties were more by friends
and upon personal grounds than
party or party principles and the
relative strength of the parties in
either of the three mentioned coun.
ties cannot by the vote cast for the
representative tickets be estimated.
In Bent county, if the election has
demonstrated anything the demo-
Gratis are slightly In the majority
but that majority is SO slight that
good men upon the republican ticket
or an active campaign will easily
overcome it. At any rate their num-
erical strength is in no wise sufficient
to dlshearten the republican party of

Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1889-01-15
CORNERS AND COFFEE.

The report that the New York Legisla.
ture has been inspired by Judge Barrett's
antitrust decision to take up the battle
against commercial conspiracies of all kinds,
has some foundation. At least one institu-
ton, which counts among its vested rights
that of running semi-annual corner on a
leading food staple, has found out that it is
attacked.
That institution is the New York Coffee
Exchange, which gets up a corner on coffee
about twice year. There is bill against
coffee corners in the Legislature, and the
coffee brokers are boiling about it. 1t is
also obvious that they are stirred up from
their utmost depths, as they delegated a
committee of nine to 60 to Albany and ex-
hibit their grounds of objection to the bill.
IT the objection is solely to law directed
against single class of commercial con-
Spirators, they have better grounds than
usually come from their staple. There is no
reason for singing out coffee as a sub
ject for legislation against corners, while
wheat, oil, cotton, pork, sugar or stocks are
left untouched. Indeed, some of the latter
staples are subject TO corners more injurious
to the public than those in coffee can be.
If legislation can put a stop to such
gambling with loaded dice in the staples of
life, it should include all of them.
Let us hope that the New York coffee
men will urge the amendment OF the bill so
as to punish all conspiracies to affect the
price of any staple, and give honest and
legitimate trade fair chance. That would
settle coffee gambling as well as the other
kinds

THE LEGAL FIFCTIoN

Harrison was elected President yesterday.
There has been an impression that he was
elected last November; but the formalities
gone through with yesterday call attention
to the error. All that was done last fall
was to elect the men who choose the Presi-
dent. 1t is true that none Of the electors
would dare to vote for any candidate except
the one he was chosen to represent unless he
was prepared to move out of the country
without further delay; but it is a curious
illustration of the difference between public
opinion and law that this discretion which
no elector dares exercise now, is constitu-
tional right, if not constitutional duty.
Another singular feature appears in the fact
that while the people would be unanimous
in indignation at the vote of any elector for
another man than his party candidate, they
leave untouched and amended the pro.
visions in the Constitution which give an
elector the right to do that very thing. Are
we an exactly logical nation?

INGALLS, sTEREoTYPED REPORT.

Senator ingalls, declaration that eff any
one has shut me out of his house, on
account of anything 1 have said, am glad
of it, with a supplementary reference to
bis duty to state unpaiatable truths is
about what might be expected of the Kansas
Senator. A man who seeks fame rather by
the sharpness of his tongue than the keen
ness of his judgment would naturally make
exactly that retort. 1t is the best practica-
Bile; but it can hardly fail to call attention
to the fact that the Senator's vituperation
of President Cleveland was not duty, nor
was it all confined to truth. At the time
that he made that speech which opened
with charging that no person could be more
degraded than the President, THE DISPATCH
pointed out that it was simply the abandon
of a gifted scold. The objects of such
abusive attacks can hardly be blamed for
keeping aloof from their assailant
