Coveted Honors.

To THE EDTToR-Sir: 1t is natural for fall
len, depraved human nature TO crave the hon
ors of the world. Many of our great men are
on the lookout for honors, in expectancy that
they will be the recipients of great praises
from all the people. They are thinking about
themselves. They imagine that the world Of
mankind should be thinking about them-yea,
be saying fine things about Thorn. Each Off
cial feels that he is the important character
that all eyes should be turned toward him, and
all words spoken in his favor. He labors more
for the hOnors of the world than for the vel
fare of the people.
While this is a general feeling, it is not uni
versal. We have had a few great men, who
rose to the serene nights where the praise OF
human tongues was no motive power; where
the appreciation of conscience ruled. Such
men are impartial in the discharge of their
duties, and have consciences void OF otiense
toward God and man. Such men are valuable
TO the nation and to the world, are worthy of
honor, and will live in the hearts OF all good
people.
Such is Grover Cleveland. While in the ex-
ecutive chair he looked to the interest of the
whole people, and faithfully discharged his
duty in the execution of law, irrespective OF
party or person. He would rather be right
than be president" Long may such men live

A Crushed TragedIan.

The supreme court Thursday denied
the petitions for rehearings in the RILEY
and CARSON cases. The court could find
no reason in the documents fled by Atty
Gen. MICHENER, after such an unconscion-
able delay, for reopening the cases. 1t
stands by the decisions already rendered,
which are that the legislature has clear
right to elect trustees OF the benevolent
institutions. OF course, these decisions
are sound. Nobody had ever questioned
this right until Gov. HovEY broke into
the executive chamber. 1t is conferred
in express terms by the constitution of
the state, as it was by the original consti-
tuition It has been exercised by every
legislature in our history. II is as well
established as the right of the governor to
pardon criminals, or the right of the su-
preme court 10 decide suits on appeal.
The supreme court could not have
| decided against this right without
stultifying itself. The amazing thing is
! that two members of the court were will
| ing to 60 on record as sustaining Gov.
HovEY's absurd contention. Their names
are BERKSHIRE and COREY. Ofthe three
| Judges who decided against the governor,
two-Messrs. ELLIOTT and 0LDs-are re-
publicans. We congratulate them upon
their level-headedness and judicial indie
pendence. Still, to have supposed them
capable of yielding to partisan pressure in
matter where law, precedent, common
sense and reason combined TO make their
| duty plain, involved a reflection either
upon their capacity, or their integrity. OF
both, which only Gov. HovEY and the In.
dianapolis Journal have been willing to
make.
Gov. HovEY ought TO subside now. Fol
nearly six months he has been making 8
ridiculous spectacle. of himself He has
set himself up above constitutions and
laws and legislatures and courts; ha'
ignored precedents and defied authority
has introduced confusion and demoraliza
ton into every department of the state
government; has done what was in hii
power TO impair the credit OF the state
and bring it's good name into disrepute
His intense egotism and his inordinats
love OF notoriety and power are doubtless
responsible for the silly pranks he ba
been playing. Now that the supreme
court has put final and emphatic seal 0
condemnation upon him, we really thInl
he ought to settle down and behave him
self. The Napoleonic role is not suiteC
to him. He should be content +

WAS HE MURDERED OR DRowNeD'
Three Boys Charged With Having Brutality
Murdered Their Companion.

CLINTON, Ind, June 19.-LSpeciaL l-Yester-
Jay afternoon, near Hillsdale, Ind, occurred
the sixth murder in Veunillion county within
the last two years. Three boys, whose ages
run from nine to fifteen years. one Of whom Is
named Peernan and the other two named
Douglass, are charged with having brutally
murdered another boy aged about thirteen
years, named Snyder, and afterward with hav-
ing thrown his body into deep hole in Little
Raccoon creek. They had quarreled with the
murdered boy and threatened 70 Kill
him, which fact he communicated TO his
fathers family, but nothing was feared
from their threats. After the boy had
been missed the alarm was given
and Young Peerman told his father that the
boy was drowned and that he would 90 and
show him where to find him. Several persons
Immediately went TO the particular place, and
one of them dyed down into the creek and
raised the lifeless BODY from its watery tomb.
On examination ii was found that his head had
been fearfuliy pounded as with club, and a
wound inflicted also with some sharp instru-
oOzed. Upon further examination it was found
that a pistol shot had been fired into his mouth,
the bail ranging back near the left ear. The
latest report is that young Peerman, the
youngest OF the four, had confessed all the
facts substantially as stated above. The fami-
lies of the boys are prOstmted with grief over
the untimely death and the inhuman conduct
dsplaved. One mother nouns over the dead
body OF her dear boy and two mothers arc
weeping because their BOYS are in a worse
position than il they were dead.

The Home of Ex-solicitor-General jerks
the Scene Of Brilliant Event.
BRooKvuIE, Pa, June 2o.-The home OF
George 4. jerks ext. s. solicitorgeneral, was
the scene of gayety last evening. The large
house was beautifully decorated with ported
plants, brought from Pittsburg, while vreaths
of evergreens and cut flowers were hung IN
festoons around the walls. All was brilliantly
illuminated, yet the light that fell from be-
tween the profusion OF foliage and draperies
was softly tinted, and there were no glaring
effects. 1t was the occasion of the marriage OF
Miss Emma jerks TO Congressman b. r.
Shiyely of South Bend, Ind. The ceremony
took place at O'Clock. the Rev. ]. 5. Class.
pastor of the presbyterian church, officiating.
The bride was beautifully costumed IN rlcb
dress of white and some elegant dresses we're
worn by the fifty invited guests, many OF whom
came from the West while number were
present from Pittsburg and Allegheny. After
the ceremony all sat down 10 supper, and
while the wedding feast was in progress an
orchestra in the next room rendered brilliant
program Mr.. and Mrs. Shively LETT here this
morning and will make tour OF the eastern
cities and watering places before returning to

INC workings of Protection.

Writing Of the miners strikes in Ger
many, the Berlin correspondent of the
Associated Press says:
The power of the government 10 make en-
ployers feel the weight of its displeasure lies
nj hand The mine owners have obtained dur
ing recent years many favors. They have Sc
ruTed special tariffs throughout Germany and
have been granted low freight rates to Ham
burg. Bremen, Belgium and Holland IN order
10 enable them 10 compete with English coal.
These privileges are readily assailable If the
eompanies are contumacious. While the state
Of the mines is most prosperous, the condition
of the men is yearly more wretched.
Here you have it. 1t is the German
mine owners mot their employes) who
have received favors from the govern
ment. 1t is the mines-not the miners
that are prosperous. The latter are bor-
dering on starvation. Protection has
made the operators wealthy and power
full; but it has brought the operatives 10
even greater poverty than they had
known before BISMARCK adopted the So
called american { p system"
That's how protection works every
where. Il makes the rich richer and the
poor poorer; relatively if not absolutely.
Look at the destitute miners in Clay coun'
fy; then run up to Chicago and look al
their masters. You will find them living

an interview he says he will issue commits
sions to the trustees of all the benevolent
institutions without further delay. 1t is
to be hoped for his own sake and for the
benefit of the public, that he will keep his
word. 1t would be well, too, if he were
to abandon his efforts to dispossess the
state geologist and other officials elected
by the legislature. There can be no ques-
ton that they were legally chosen, and
Gov. Hovey ought to realize the folly OF
longer resisting their titles. He an
nounces, however, that he will continue
the fight against him. Let us hope he
will think better of this.

/ may say that it is not now controyerted that
in the mining districts of that county some five
or six thousand persons (miners ana their de-
pendents) are in actual want of the necessities
of lie, and many Of them without sufficient
food. The patient suffering and law-abiding
course of the miners of Clay county in this con
test of capital against labor" entities them to
the highest consideration, and hope that the
charitable efforts of yourself and others in then
behalf will speedily relieve them from all suf
fering Yours truly, j. L. MCDONALD.
