THE ROCKFORD SENSATION

Rockford was thrown into great
tremors Of excitement on Thursday
evening on its becoming known tina,

ing he hastily entered his Office at the
Central lire station and in minute
two shots in rapid succession were
heard, and on several persons hasten
ing To his room he was found prone on
the floor, weltering in his blood, with
two CHASTITY wounds in either side OF
his head.
The report that Chief Webb had
committed suicide was no more start
ling than the reason why he did II,
when il became known. He had been
detected in a series Of forgeries-the
proof against him was clear and posi-
tive-there was no possible escape
from immediate disgrace and ruin,
save-thrOugh the dark valley.
What brought him 10 this pass? He
had lived in Rockford twelve years,
eight OF which he passed in the police
service OF the city, six as chief. No
man stood higher in public estimation
no man was more implicitly trusted.
He received good salary, lived IN a
fine house and was surrounded by an

THE RESOLUTIONS.

Following is the text Of the resolu'
tlons adopted at the Democratic con
gressional convention at Joliet on
Wednesday:
Resolved, That the passage by the
house OF representatives OF the Nc
Kinley tariff bill is the most fragrant
and oppressive act Of legislation at
tempted in this country, and II en-.
acted into a law without material
modl fication by the senate then indeed
may the masses Of the people beal
their Threats TO the robber aSsaSsins
who will not only demand but take
whatever titheS they think their vic
tins can endure and still live.
That we look with alarm upon the
bold attempt now being made to cir.
cumscribt, II not to throttle and
strangle, the inalienable right Of free
suffrage by the passage Of the sO-called
national election bill.
That the times demand brains
instead Of dollars; that state-craft, in.
tegrity and heart are the essential
quail ilcations; that the people have no
further use for the canting dema-
gogues who think they should make
the laws because they have made
money.
That in that grand old war-hOrse
and statesman, John NJ. Palmer, we
have just the man for the time and
place-the Douglas Of the age, and
the peoples choice for the Y. S. senate
for whose election we pledge our
united, earnest and successful efforts.

interesting and loving family. Then
why did he do IL? The Register un-
ravcls the secret;
The fault which lay at the bottom
Of all the trouble was Mr.. Webb's de-
vOtion 10 his wife and family, and his
anxiety to make them happy and give
them all the pleasures and luXurles
that life allowed. Ii was this that
kept him plunged in debt. IL was
this which made him assume the bur-
den OF a more expensive house. II was
this which led him into eXtravagant
purchases which his salary Of $1,000
would not warrant. He bought MS
wife a gold watch last Christmas, re-
Gently he bought horse and carriage,
and piano, and only the other day
he brought home little dog for his
children that must have cost some
thing. These are but instances OF the
way he showed his devotion to his
wife and little ones.
1t Is the old-old story, that ever
carries the same impressive moral.
There is hardly breach Of trust,
defalcation, great forgery or bank rob-
berry that has not the same cause at
the bottom. The man lived beyond
his means. His family must circulate
in the best society and to do so must
put on style" If the Smiths, with
whom we associate, 90 to the opera, or
to Saratoga, or abroad, We must do so
also, though their income is $4,000 to
our $1,000. The poor pdter tamilidS may
see ruin in all this, but what can he
do? Shall he make his home hell?
Nothing is so cruel and heartless as
caste, nothing so brutal and mercIless

which he reaped his chief fame. He
had married, under somewhat roman

HLAINE,S RACk-DOWN.

Blaine's back-dOwn in his Behrlng
sea policy stands now confessed, in an
evidently inspired editorial in Fridays
New York Tribune The half-hearted,
temporizing policy of Secretary Bay
ard in the last months Of Cleyeland's
administration, Mr.. Blaine gave out
in lOrdly way, was to be reversed and
the authority Of the L. ). over the
whole of Behring sea stoutly main
tanned. Y. 5. cutters were therefore
sent to those waters with orders to
seize any British vessel found therein
catching seals contrary to rules and
stipulations laid down by the U. 5.
England protested: there was a long
correspondence; but Blaine was i'm
movable. Then England quietly or
dered few war vessels to those
waters, and then Blaine took the hint
and countermanded his positive or
ders to the Americahcruisers.
The Tribune article recOunts and eX-
plains the whole business. The up
shot Of it Is, that "the British premier
has applied here the prevalent Eu-
ropean doctrine that peace IS best
opened ty offensive demonstration"
What was Mr.. Blaine to do? What
this country needs" the article pro-
ceeds, sis above all things a great
navy. 1t has long been a favorite
theory of Mr.. Blaine that diplomacy
without guns and ships to back it up,
is mere farce. If this country had
possessed "a navy anywhere near the
British navyin power, Lord Salisbury's
bluff would have been promptly
called; but having no such navy,
Blaine was compelled to take back
water" Therefore, If this country is
to treat with the old world powers on
equal terms, let Congress see TO it that
we have navy, and so on. In the
light of the present case, however,
may it not rather be considered lucky
for the peace Of the world that our
navy is as small as it is. A war with
England over few miserable seals
would have been an international
| crime.
