If nothing else, it certainly shows
weakness and Inconsistency among the
republican editors of the state to be
continually harping over Gov. Mer.
riam's Doodle record, especially when
they supported him for the Office last
fall. They have brought up nothing new
against him. They have told no stories
which they themselves did not reject at
one occasion or another. To all APP
pearances they know as little of Mer-
riam, as a boodler, as when helping to
elect him. If they would not look up
on the charges then except as false
hoods. why do they now? The weap-
ons that they are using to mould pub
lie opinion against him are simply the
cast Oft election sings of democrats.
That is all. They will not be
believed and unless you can give
other reasons, Merriam will be only a
winner by your fight. Urge the one
term chestnut, urge mistakes in using
the pard0ning power. urge anything
else, but don't give yourselves away by
dishing up charges that you wouldn't
swallow yourself a year ago. It has a
bad effect Unless you can say some.

have had him believe that they knew

It is amusing to note the various

of he speaks, would explain matters, he
would be doing public service.

Postmaster Ankeny, of Minneapolis,
against whom charges were made to
the civil service commission, has been
weighed in the balance Of that body
and found wanting. Illegality in the
appointment of assistants is the pith Of
the charges against him and for this he
has no other excuse than that he was
upheld by Postmaster General Dickin-
son. The excuse is a poor one as the
latter gentlemen is known to have done
things at times that weren't just exact
~ right and that he he should wink at
wrong doing in others is not to be won
dered at.

Differences of opinion in any organi.
cation bring on divisions and discussions.
It is al inevitable result. The gather
ing clouds bode a storm and what is at
first small and apparently insignificant
soon becomes portentous. Such is the
out look for the w. G. 7. u. Of Mime
sofa and so it will soon be for the or.
ganized bodies of the whole country.
Partisanship is an issue on which they
are now divided and on which they
will ere long be weakened. Ithas been
the subject of dispute and wrangling
at every session of the order. 1t has
given them more annoyance than any
thing else, and it is easy to see that
things are growing worse instead of bet
ter. The state convention at Duluth
came out for prohibition, but at the
same time it was forced to allow
distinct union to set up for itself
at Minneapolis, that would be free
from partisanship and tied down to
no party, whose principles it could
not endorse. This may not appear
dangerous to the leaders of the organi-
zation, but it is. They may delude
themselves with the idea that they can
keep down further upstairs of like ma
ture, but it is impossible. They will
arise as sure as the sun, and unless the
w. G. I. U. wholly dissolves itself from
any connection with the third party it
will some day look around and find it..
self a wreck. The principles of the or.
der are squarely set against union with
any political clique and when it neg
lects those principles it lays itself open
to correction. The remedy cannot be
more properly administered than by its
own members in just such warnings as
that made by the Minneapolis corp.
If they are not accepted, then the order
dies of its own fault.
The st. Peter Herald says: .sThe
farmers are the only class of citizens
who are unable to form trusts and or.
ganize combinations
And the simple reason why they can
not combine is that there are too many
of them who are blind to their own in
terests, envious of their neighbours pros
perity, and the general mistrust they
entertain. of. their own class has its eff
feet They are too easily cajoled by
the flattery Of smooth tongued, silk
tiled political demagogues, who are their
q dearest and best friends during the
political campaign, but after election
their friendship ceases and their promis-
es are ignored. The farmers are not all Of
this class but there are enough such TO
break up every combination they at
tempt to make for their own protection.
Farmers, place more confidence in your
own ability to defend yourselves against
other combinations, learn to trust your
neigghbors and you will be able to form
az the cor ations necessary 70 your

Thirty Thoroughbrsds Tails Chopped Oh Short lud

Prosecute.

NEW YORK, February 2G.-Edwin d.
Morgan, the young millionaire banker,
who has a large stock farm a mile from
Hemstead, L. l., gave orders TO his head
hostler last week to have thirty of his
blooded horses 'docked" or "bauged" in
the most approved dude style.
The horses were placed in frame wise
near the stables and each in turn had It's
tail cut off short. The animals were
screwed up in the wise 50 that they could
nyt make movement. Any motion was
impossible. Then the knife was applied.
and after the greater part Of the tail had
been chopped of red hot iron WAS ap-
piled TO the bleeding wound to cauteriza
1t. The poor animals screamed one after
the other as they were led up TO the wise.
The poor brutes seemed to Tealizs what
was in store for them, and each in turn en-
deavored to escape before being placed in
the machine. All the horses are now laid
up, their wounds being still unhealed.
Mr. Henry Bergh, the President Of the
Society for the Prevention OF Cruelty TO
Animals, when he was Informed OF the
case last night, promised that IL should
have the immediate attention Of his so
ciety
81 will bring it up before the meeting
of the Executive Board, said he, "aud ii

inhuman practice. Any man who orders

Recently in Massachusetts, great
many men have been punished for deck
ing horses, the penalty in most cases be-
ing fine of S25 for each case. In Eng
land, also, believe, a number have bsen
convicted for the same ofense We will
see if il can't be done here To the best
of my knowledge docking was intro
duced into the world because the horse ol
q nObleman, who WAS leader OF fashion,
was deformed. The nobleman didn't like
10 have the delormed tail too prominent.
so he had it cut OIL short. Every one who
wanted to be fashionable followed his ex-
ample, and cut OF the tails of their hoIses
The practice is the most absurd and cruel
that could possibly be inaupurated
Nature gave the horse a tail TO protect him
against lilies and other insects These men
try to improve on nature. In doing 30
they sever the spinal column, and they
forever disable the horse from nddfng him

men in docking skin the horse's tail aud

Laughter. He offered TO make an afli-
davit, but hoped he would be allowed to
leave the country. Mr.. SoAmes replied
that the agreement as TO secrecy had been
removed as Pigott's visit to Mr.. Labou-
chere and others rendered full disclosures
necessary. The Times would see that
Pigott was not harmed if he confirmed in
court the evidence he had given Mr.
Soames, and afterwards verified under
oath.
Mr.. Soames was unable to sanction
giving Pigott money to enable him to leave
the country, but he consented to pay his
expenses and recoup him for loss of work
He enclosed ten pounds in the letter
Pigott replied that he had not relieved the
Times from the obligation to maintain
secrecy, and that he had not promised to
teetify. Houston had deceived Mr.. Sosmes
Just as he had eceived Mr.. Pigott. Pigott
said he was informed that if he testified
his opponents would produce evidence
that would nentralize his testimony and
endanger his life. He declared that
Houston was responsible for his (Pigotts)
negotiations with Mr.. Labouchere. Mr..
Soames wrote to Pigott that the pledges
given by the latter must be performed.
Pigott told Mr.. Soames that he had had an
interview with Mr.. Mccarthy.
Mr.. Soames testified that to the best Of
his belief be had not informed counsel that
PigOtt was the source of the letters before
the Commission act was passed. He saw
Mr.. Walter constantly, and did not doubt
that he had mentioned to him that PigOtt
was the source of the letters. Witness did
NOT know what arrangements had been
made to watch Pieott He sent Sergeant
Fawcett 10 AndeTsons Hotel on Thursday
to see that no one interfered with Pigott.
Fawceit stayed at the hotel until yester-
day. Witness was not aware that detec'
tives had been employed to watch Pigott.
Sir Charles Russell stated that he would
prove by an agent in Glasgow that Pigott
had committed a series of forgeries- The
court would not ALLOW this testimony to
be given. Sir Richard Webster then asked
that the Commission adjourn until To-
morrow to enable his clients TO consider
their position and decide upon what part
OF the case they would abandon, and also
TO ascertain whether or not Pigott was
accessible. He said he would announce
the course the Times intended to pursue
tomorrow.
Sir James Hammer then adjourned the
court until tomorrow.

BALTIMORE, February 26.-What has
been the ambition Of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad company for years, through
traffic to New York, is about to be realized.
It was officially announced to-day that ON
March 10, an arrangement with the Read
ing railroad would 30 into effect whereby
through passenger trains will be run from
Washington and Baltimore 70 New York
in five and one-half to six hours between
the latter cities.
It was intended in the beginning 10 use
the Baltimore and Ohio Twenty-iOuhh
street depot in the Quaker City, and then
cross the Schuylkill and eonntc, by means
of the Schuylkill Eastside Read with the
Reading at Park junction. At West Falls
Junction il will be necessary to run into
Wayne Junction 10 connect with the main
line Of tie Reading II is thought that the
delay in going to Wayne Junction will not
be greater than that TO which the Penn
sylysnia Railroad trains are subjected in
pulling into the Broad street station, but
as tne Baltimore and Ohio will in a short
time have completed the dire. track from
Twenty fourth street to Wayne junction,
even this delay will be obyieted.
