The People and The Convention.

The selection of delegates to the
constitutional convention by Joint
action of county central committees
was a bold departure from the Gus
tomary way Of selecting delegates,
but it was the proper one in view of
the peculiar circumstances attending
our plans for Statehood. 1t was the
best way possible, and we believe it
will be so considered for all time to
come. Now, that the delegates have
all, or nearly all, been named, let the
people make such recommendations
through their respective delegations
as in their wisdom and good iudg.
ment are proper and right to be made.
Let the 4th day Of July be the time
for such recommendations and sug-

HARMONY and good feeling ere
necessary To the successful working
Of tie constitutional contention: with
these much may be expected; without
these but little. All issues involving
grave differences should, if possible,
be settled in caucus. The convention
itself should be model Of harmony.
If any symptoms Of the Ada county
troubles crop out On the surface they
should be dealt with promptly and
heroically in the beginning. The
people are not overly enthusiastic for
Statehood and it depends upon the
action Of the convention whether they
be made more 50 or not AS a gen
eral thing, the delegates are good
representative men and as such the
people will expect much at their
hands--much, we mean, in the way
Of relief and encouragement towards
Statehood If either one Of the par
ties, or if the two parties use the
convention for party purposes, for
party advancement and for personal
preferment and personal promotions
THE News sounds the alarm in adj
vance that all labors for Statehood
will be vain and they will be made
80, not by one party alone but By
members Of both parties combined.

JOIinstOWn Disaster.

The Johnstown. Pennsylvania, dis
aster, Of last Friday, is without a
parallel in the history Of the Ameri-
can continent The heart grows sick
in contemplation Of its horrible de
tails. Somewhere between 10000 and
$1,000 souls persisted in the food.
Floods and pestilences in over pop
ulated China may have destroyed as
many lives, one or two earthquakes
in ages past may have swallowed up
as many but the American continent
never witnessed the like of this be-
fore. Whole towns and villages de-
stroyed By the wild rush Of single
wave as it were. Johnstown was
situated at the confluence of Stony
and Conemaugh creeks where they
form the Conemaugh river, about
% miles east OF Pittsburg. Along
the valley Of these creeks were a
number Of villages peopled as Johns
town was by employees Of the Cambria
iron and steel companies. Not rich
man lived in any Of them. The dwell
ing houses were principally frame
structures and the business houses

Professor Van Horn, If these Stories Are

Professor Van Horn, If these Stories Are
 True, is a Fisnd.
 WEsToHEsTER, Pa., May 11.-Charges of gross cruelty to children in his care are made against Professor Van Horn, of the Chester Springs soldiers orphan school, in this county, by Mccall Post No. 31, Grand Army of the Republic.
 The children tell of Van Horns knock ing them down for the most trifling of- fences, and in several instances both girls and boys were beaten on the head to such a degree as to cause blood to flow freely from their ears, nose and mouths. In other instances boys were denied sleep. The professor ordered ice water down their backs when they showed signs of drowsiness. This was kept up for several nights at time in order to lead some one or two boys to confess to some alleged disobedience of a trifling character.
 Even the food has been unfit to eat, and oftentimas not enough of this to satisfy gnawing hunger, was supplied the children, who have been kept under such subJection that they were afr2id to tell their sufferings or to ask for more liberal dispensation of the necessities of life.
 Van Horn is now in Europe, but he will probably be sent for.

DENMARK'S MINISTRY.
MT. Enander Says Secretary Blaine
 Said Nothing to Him.
CAUSE OF REsIGNING.
The Opposition to Him on the Part 01 the Danes Supposed to be Purely on Political Grounds - Sickness Pre-. vents His Accepting.

WASHINGTON, May 11.-There Is a disa- greeable sensation smothering behind the resignation of John A. Enander, the Scandinavian journalist, who received the appointment of Minister to Denmark.
 It leaked out through an indiscreet cabinet officer and is being gossipped about in the hotel lobbies.
 It seems that MT. Enander's declina- tion to serve his adopted country as a diplomat to his native land was not en- tirely by his reported physical break drown, but was largely due to a hint thrown out by Secretary Blaine to the effect that President Harrison would not be offended if MT. Enander concluded that his interests demanded that he re- main in Chicago.
 Until week ago both MT. Blaine and other members of Mir. Harrison's cabinet regarded the appointment as one that would reflect credit to the administra- tion. Their opinions were changed, it is alleged, by the receipt of communica- tion from Copenhagen which briefly stated that the appointment of NIT. Enander was not acceptable to the king of Denm ark, and that he would not be received at the Danish court.
 No explanation was given for the att1- tude of the King, but it is quite probable that the opposition is purely political one. At least this is the opinion of the state department officials. MT. Enander was seen on the matter. He said; "No, I never was requested to resign my ap- pointment. I did so of my own free will. I was taken sick April 13 with congestion of the lungs and as grew worse instead of better, thought ought to resign so that some one else might be appointed. That is the only reason I did so. Had if not been for my sickness I wOuld cer- tainly have represented this country"

 CHICAGO, May 1.-The police arrested a man named Frank G. Woodruff yester. day on charge of horse stealing. Last evening the prisoner confessed to having stolen a horse and wagon from Dean'e barn, 406 Webster avenue, about o'clock on Sunday morning last, and soon after met by appointment Dr. P. H. Cronin William King and Dick Fairburn at the barn in the rear of the mansion, 528 North State street.
 A trunk containing the body of a woman was placed in the wagon, into which King and Fairburn then entered with Woodruff, leaving Dr. Cronin at the barn. Woodruff drove the body and his two companions to Lincoln Park, where King and Fairburn removed the corpse from the trunk, and Woodruff drove on alone to the place on Evanston avenue, where the empty trunk was found some hours afterward.
 From conversations between Cronin, King and Fairburn, which Woodruff overheard, he judged that the body was that of woman who had been killed by an operation.
