AN EDITORIAL CHANGE.

w. L. Vail has according to the Cih- sen, assumed charge of it's editorial columns.
 Mir. NaiPs entry among us is modest and straight to the issues that should be the controlling features of any Repub- lican paper. TIE REPUBLICAN extends him a hearty welcome, and hopes that he may be allowed to be wholly respon- sible for the editorial conduct (for the future policy) of the paper" There are serious reasons for doubting that this will be allowed.
 First, it is well known that for many months past Mir. Herbert Brown has had the absolute control of majority of the Citizen stock, and there is no req son for believing that he has in any way relinquished the control. Therefore, when Mir. Brown says that the Citizen Publishing Company earn estly request him to retain charge of the business management, 1t means that Herbert Brown earnestly requests Herbert Brown to look after his own business. Such being the case, it is not clear and will not be clear until time demonstrates the fact as to what will be the future policy of the paper, because Mir. Vail holds his position entirely at the will of Herbert Brown.
 Mir. Browns course for the past few months was leading to the certain ruin of his paper, and just such change as this, if honestly carried out, was essen- tal to it's salvation, and it was undoubt- edly taken for that reason.
 Mir. Morford, TIE REPUBLICAN calls your especial attention to Mir. Browns wise act, viz: Employ an active out and out Republican like Mir. Vail as editor of the Herald and give him full charge of the future policy" of the Herald. You see, that without making apologies for the past, it starts you out again on a good sound Republican basis. Think oi this, Mir. Morford, for you have strayed long way from being good Republican, and it will require some radical change to reinstate the Herald as Republican paper.
 Mir. Brown has at least shown good sense in this action, and judging from his start, equally good judgment in the selection of MT. w. l.. Vail.
 We doubt if Mir. Morford has either the sense or good judgment to follow so wise an example. The following from that old reliable Republican paper, the JOundl-Miaer, shows that you, Mir. Morford, cannot too quickly adopt MT. Browns example:
 "Well, if the Herald don't know what would be double headed political gang without party we can inform it. A man serving the Republican party as the See retary of it's Territorial Central Commit tee, and at the same time editing what professes to be Republican paper, to bolt his ticket and support the Demo- cratic nominee for Congress, as the editor of the Herald did two years ago, is an apt illustration of one of such gang as can be given. For members of the same gang of professed Republicans to give their support and votes to the Demo- cratic nominees for municipal officers and throw up their hats and rejoice at a Democratic victory, is another illustra- ton of double headed gang without party Fora proiessed Republican paper to make senseess war on Republican officials without cause or justice, serves as still another illustration of the same species"

TIE farmer in politics means some- thing, if the farmer can be brought under organization and discipline and made to stick. One need not go to the census reports to learn this fact. Kan sas and Minnesota statistics satisfy on that score. Seventy per cent. of the vote of Kansas is cast by the farmers and 9O,000 voters in Minnesota are farmers. In the one state the farmer has clear majority, in the other he holds the bal ance of power. What is true of these two typical states will hold throughout the country. The farmer is a power.

GIVE ELECTROCUTION A SHOW.

TIE hue and cry against electrocution, because nervous warden and more nervous attendants bungled the Kemm- Ter job, is senseless. The electric bolt did its work. It unquestionably killed the victim and rendered him insensible from the first contact and thus placed him out of misery.
 The first shock lasted l7 seconds and the reaction, which has been exagge- rated into deep signing and groaning, was perfectly natural. They surely were not unexpected to experienced execu- tioners, who have seen the awful contor. tions of men who have been hanged both through traps and by weights.
 Our account comes from men like Mir. Baine, of the O'Brien-Baine literary bureau, who tainted during the execu- tion. They complain that the body burned and the odor was horrifying. What would become of these reportorial dudes at hanging where the rope breaks because of too great fall, and the struggling victim, blue in the face and tongue protruding, is dragged forcibly from under the gallows back to the drop, to be hanged again. The writer has at tended more than forty executions, military and civil, including all of the Molle Mcguire victims, and such instances are not rare. That of Cailty, the one-armed man hanged at Colorado Springs, is quite recent and quite in point. He had six foot fall. The rope rebounded and broke at the beam. The poor devil, though half dead, was hauled up and hanged again. No one who saw that ghastly scene will ever forget it, yet apparently there are men who pre- fer that method to the more humane lnaugurated in New York on Wednes- day morning.
 So long as we continued with the Mo safe law of ''an eye for an eye and tooth for tooth," we should seek to make executions as painless and as little re- volting as possible. Electricity furnishes the agency and it is wrong to condemn it's use on single trial and on the ac- counts of a few dudelets who have in some way, God knows how, drfted into the newspaper business. There was much to contend with. The whole thing was an experiment. The electric com panies to a man opposed the system and will use large sums to influence senti- ment against it's continuance. The warden was a nervous man, who was overpowered with the re- responsibilities of the occasion. Even the callow young men of the press tell us | that Kemmler was the coolest man among those present. It was a splendid chance for sensational work and it was not lost. Nevertheless, experiments in | this direction should be continued until perfection is attained and men may be painlessly murdered by law, even if it cannot be done without shocking the nerves of deicately-constructed news paper men.
 l As General sherman said of war, SO of the inhiction of capital punishment: "It is brutal and cannot be refned." The taking of human life is always painful, generally more so to the witnesses than to the victim. As the witnesses, outside of the officers, physicians and jurors, need not be there unless they so choose, their feelings need not be considered materially. The thing to be gained is to render the execution painless. Give eectrocution chance.

The County Fathers.

At yesterdays meeting of the Board of Supervisors an indigent was allowed $l5.
 The District Attorney asked further time to report upon the funding proposi- ton, stating that while the measure was undoubtedly feasible one as regards the payment of the floating and bonded indebtedness due, there was a serious question as to whether the Board had the authority to bond the county for the construction of a jail. He was given until August 14 to report, to which date the Board then adjourned.

ANARCHISTS ARRESTED.

While Mrs. Parsons was Addressing a
Crowd, h and q Number of Others
We're Arrested.
New YORK, Nov. IA week ago Saen-
ger hall was hired by people represent
ing the International Workingmen's So
ciety. The proprietor Of the hall did not
know that the people were anarchists
until the bills were posted throughout
the city announcing the celebration of
the third anniversary of the hanging of
the Chicago anarchists. Lucy Parsons,
Herr Most and Hugh o. Penticost we're
advertised as speakers. When the
the speakers appeared this evening the
proprietor refused to allow them to enter
the hall. A big crowd had c~ongregated
in the street, and Mrs. Parsons mounted
the hall steps and began to harangue the
crowd. Police Captain Glorie stepped
up and warned her to desist. She defed
him with strong language and several
anarchists urged her to continue. The
captain gave q signal and officers and de-
t~ectives grabbed the ring leaders in short
order and marched them to the fourth
precinct station. Those arrested are ia
cob Dick, John Schmidt, Edward
Klump, Enelebert Hummer, Simeon
Cortman, Charles Wager, Adam Dasing,
Sebastian Mohr and Mrs. Parsons. Herr
Most escaped in the crowd. The pris-
oners will be examined in the morning.

Col. Price Shot.

SEDALIA, Mo-, Nov. Cool. Thomas B.
Price, president Of the Gazette Printing
company Of this city, owner Of the Vandal
farm and one of the best known men in
Missouri, was shot and MORALLY wounded
at s o'clock this afternoon by Judge John
Higgins OF the Pitts county court. Both
men were ell route to their homes OF the
Missouri Pacific train. Judge Higgins
was a candidate for denomination before
the democratic county convention and was
defeated by Price. Since then he has en-
tertained q bitter feeling against Price.
The two men were in this city on business
to-day and took the afternoon train for
their homes. Just what led to the trouble
is not known, but Price and Higgins en-
gagged in q quarrel. Higgins drew his re-
volver and shot Price in the abdomen.
Price was taken to his home at HOust0nia,
where Higgins also lives. Higgins gave
himself up to the authorities at that place,
and the sheriff here received a message
this evening summoning him to go after
the prisoner at once, as'fears of lynching
are entertained. Colonel Price is a very
prominent Mason and is very popular
among a large following. A special train
has gone from here bearing physicians to
attend the wounded man. The train also
carried a large number of Prices relatives.

Republican Congratulations.

COLUMBUS, o., Nov. THE republic
can state committee tonight issues an
address to the republicans of the state,
congratulating them upon the victory of
Tuesday in spite of the exertions of
Chairman Brice of the national demo-
cratic committee and his presence in the
state preceding the election. The COM
mittee says the result is an endorsement
of the Mckinley bill and the administra-
ton of President Harrison and is q de-
cision in favor of American as against
foreign interests. The democratic COM
mittee points to what they consider q
substantial victory in the state, consid-
ering the circumstances and disadvanta-
ges Of an extra Legislative session, and
the chairman says the Mckinley bill was
the leading issue. Like the republicans,
the democratic committee recognizes the
efficient services of Chairman Rice, es-
p%ecially in close congressional districts
and the state. His attitude was that of
advisor and worker, rather than dictator;
the term which they apply to the repub-
lican national chairman.

DIDN'T LIKE RELIGIOUS YORK,
Why the Wife of a New Jersey Pastor Sc

Why the Wife of q New Jersey Pastor Sc
cured q Divorce at Fargo.
PAssA1o, N. j., Nov. mo little sur
prise was caused in this city by a dis
patch from Fargo, N. D., announcing
that Mrs. Rowland, the wife of the Rev.
William Rowland, rector of st. Johns
Episcopal church IN this city, had Sc
cured q. divorce from her husband,
awarding her the custody of their bright
little 6-year-old daughter and alimony of
$500 a year. The pastors salary ia but
$500. How he can be expected to pay
the alimony set by the far-away court no
one knows. Mrs. Rowland is the dough
ter of Mrs. Henry of Flushing, L. l., and
wa married to the Rev. Mr.. Rowland
ten years ago. With tastes that led her
to parties and all gayeties rather than
church work, she steadily drifted away
from her husband. Her temper brooked
no opposition, much less control. In
April, after a period during which che
would neither sit at the table with him
nor come to his room, she left him alto
gether. He had refused to cooperate
with her in her determination to secure
q divorce, but when a Brooklyn lawyer
came here and proposed a separation he
agreed to an arrangement of that nature.
Not satisfied with this. she has now Sc
cured q divorce.

Mrs. Parsons still in JAN.

NEWARK, N. j., Nov. 8.-Mrs. Lucy
Parsons and her eight anarchist friends
are still in Jail, she and four of the men
being unable to procure bail. Five
other anarchists were unable to pay
their fines. Hugh U. Pentecost called
on Mrs. Parsons this afternoon, but was
refused admission to jail. Pentecost
strongly condemns the action Of the pc.
lice in preventing the meeting and max
ing arrests. There has been so much Of
the anarchistic element displaying itself
here recently that the police deter
mined to crush it out. There is four
ishing international socialist society here,
composed mainly Of Russians, Poles and
Germans, and meetings are held frequent
ly. The police say they will allow no
more public anarchistic celebrations.

SOUTH DAKOTA.

1t IL Estimared hat the Republicans Will
Have q Small Majority In the Legisla-
turo.
Sioux Falls, s. D., Nov. This
mornings press has the following in re-
gard to the legislature: '"From reports
received from every senatorial district
except two and from every representa-
tive district except eight, it is figured
that the republicans will have a certain
majority in the house and possibly a ma
jorlty in the senate. There are forty-ive
members in the senate and the returns
show that the republicans have elected
twenty-five and the fusionists twenty
one with two districts yet to hear from,
the T%wenty-ffth and Thirty-seventh. In
the house there are 1874 members, Of
which the republicans have elected sixty
one and the fusionists ifty-three, with
eight districts, having eleven members,
yet to hear from. Garland, democrat, in
this county, is defeated for the SEN
ate by less than fifty votes. Many demo-
Gratis claim he is elected and will try to
get a recount in hopes of pulling him
through. Some of the candidates are
bowling fraud and threatening contests.
Mellette is surely elected governor by a
small plurality, with Loucks, independ-
ent, second. Pierre's majority for per-
manent capital will be about 5000.
INDEPENDENTS DIE HAIR
HURON, s. D., Nov. 1.-THE independ-
ents no longer claim the election of
Loucks for governor. They concede
Mellette's success, but grit their teeth as
they do so. From all reports here the
republicans have certainly carried the
legislature, al they are known to have "
members and only require eight more to
make a majority. For these they have
twelve counties to hear from. The inde-
pendents now claim only 60, but five of
these are in doubt and possibly more.
The democrats clam "a. Huron has not
conceded the capital to Pierre yet.
A DEMOCRATIC VIEW.
YANKToN, S. d., Nov. T. Chairman
Peomiller of the democratic state CEN
trail committee has received advlces this
afternoon from points over the state
which lead him to claim the election of
Taylor, democrat, for governor over
Mellette by a slight plurality. He also
claims that Weeks, democrat, for auditor
has defeated w. W. Taylor, republican.
Peemiller comedies the election of Pick
Ter and Gamble and all the republican
state ticket with the exceptions. He
thinks the legislature will be almost
evenly divided between the parties. This
would mean the defeat Of Moody for
senator and more than probably the cleo
ton of Bartlett TripR to succeed him. It
ers' Alliance candidate for governor, is
elected by a small plurality, but this re-
port is d%isbelieved.
