q Il Injected with the Microbes q Dis.
hoaesty and Corruption.
II IL always painful to be obliged to
lower standards that have been confid-
ingly looked mp to with pride and that
one would hopefully initiate. The ex-
perience of life presents many such de-
pressing incidents They are familiar
to all panied observers. Then in the
larger field there is the Republican
party. It has been accredited the rela-
ton to the zenith Of moral attainment
that the Sunday-school sustains to the
church. The confessions of its oracles
and lights have given it this assign
ment- Its platforms have limited 1T
the claim with some modest reserve In
popular calculation. One of its special
efforts has been to corral all the moral
ideas and reforms. Viewing it in this
conglomerate light, it is peculiarly sad
to see its grip on these ethical sub
stances slipping SO numerously as to
mar the entire picture. An examina-
ton going on at Washington shows the
most recent candidate for Governor in
one of the staunch Republican States
trying to escape defeat by means of
forged pape rs, known to be such, with
q good deal of conniving among
the leaders of the moral party. In
West Virginia a legislative commit
tee has found that the high movers in
the party sought success by debauching
the ba Hot with imported negroes. The
party has in a half dozen States en-
acted prohibition and claimed to be the
guardian angel of the communities, but
1t has not aimed to break with the
liquor interest But few weeks ago
the Governor Of New Hampshire issued
. proclamation after the publican
party had given that State a pf obi bitory
law for thirty years, suggesting that
there ought to be some effort to enforce
it The local papers say that none will
be made. Then, out here in the Da-
kotas, the party was to teach the coun-
try new less ons in prohibition and re-
form. A law is framed in South Dakota
that has no bung-ho1e in it; but, at the
behest OF potent influences, room was
left for sideb cards in every house, and
even serving wine in the church. The
record of that State will be like the
others. In the North State prohibitory
law is enacted, and the same Legis-
lature votes to supplement- it with an
attempt to import the most odious gam
bling instit ution in the country. The
picture might be expanded indefinitely.
but it is too painful subject to follow.
1t is to be feared that the party has
pampered on prosperity too long. The
microbes and bacilli of moral disease
are injecting it. Sad but true.-St.

GRAVE ROBBERS.

Two Kentucky College Professors Caught
RObbing Graves in Indiana-The Colored
Driver Killed.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Feb. 26.-Three
prominent local physicians planned to
rob the graves of Tom johnson and Ed
Pearce, who were buried at the New
Albany Qnd.) cemetery last Saturday,
early yesterday morning, and the storm
seemed friendly to their plan, but the
officers got wind of it and were in wait
ing, and Drs j. T. Blackburn and w. E.
Grant were arrested and placed in Jail.
The third fed and his identity is not
known. Anegro accompanying the two
who drove the wagon was shot dead as
he started to run. A second colored
man who went along to help the
ghouls was arrested. Medical stu
dents from this city are said to have
robbed the same cemetery repeatedly.
The offense IS felony in Indiana. Drs
Grant and Blackburn were indicted by
the grand jury at New Albany yesterday
afternoon on two counts, robbing a
grave and conspiring to commit felony.
The punishment in the first case is from
three to ten years in the penitentiary;
in the second two to four years and from
$500 to $1,000 fine. DR.. Grant is demon
strator of anatomy in the Kentucky
School of Medical Science and DIR. Black
burn is assistant in surgery in the same
school. The college will back them
with all the money necessary. Hon.
Charles Jewett and other eminent coun-
sci have already been employed. On
the other side Prosecuting Attorney An
thony has engaged Hon. Alexander
Bowling, a leading attorney, to help him.
Owing to the high standing of the
men whose graves were to be robbed.
there is great indignation at New Al
bany. The two physicians were last
night taken to the prison at Jefferson

The Danger of Putting q Jester In q
Place of Great Power.
The Republican party when in control
of the House has chosen the following
Speakers:
Schuyler Colfax.
James G. Blaine.
Warren Keifer.
Thomas B. Reed.
The Credit-Mobilier scandals drove
Schuyler Colfax from pu bile life.
The rulings of Mr.. Blaine in connes.
ton with certain bills before the House
cost him the Presidential nomination VI
his own party three times, and defeated
him when nominated.
Warren Keifer's conduct in the chair
disguised his own party and ended his
political existence.
The Democrats when in control of the
House have chosen the following SPEAK
ers:
Michael Kerr.
Samuel j. Randall
John G. Carlisle.
Mr.. Kerr died from overwork and the
results of a strict performance of his
duty. His conduct in the chair won for
him the honest praise of friend and foe.
Samuel j. Randall was firm, courteous
and exceedingly jealous of the rights of
the minority. His conduct reflected
high honor on his party.
John G. Carlisle presided with the dig
nifty and the impartiality of Judge. No
man on the Supreme bench was ever
freer from partisan rulings than was
Speaker Carlisle. With Carlisle in the
chair it ceased to be a partisan Office,
and was clothed with the dignity of the
judiciary.
Mr.. Reed is bent on making a record
that will link his name with every
deed of violence against the constitu-
ton and every scheme of corruption di-
rected against the Treasury. His two
years in the chair will stand as peg
petual warning against putting jester
in place of such power. The Demo.
Gratis can we'll afford to conduct the
Congressional campaign in the fall upon
the records of the Republican and the
Democratic Speakers of the House.

Never in the history of National
legislation in this country have there
been such arbitrary rulings and revolu.
tionary assumption of power. At the

development it will not take him more
than year or two to buckle on spurs,
abolish Congress-, invade the White
House, tip out the misfit President and
get himself crowned King, Emperor.

MethodIsm's Growth remarkable.

BALTIMORE, Md, Feb. 26.-Bishop
Randolph S. Foster, who is on his way
to the conference at Cumberland on
March 5, in an address to the Meth
odist Episcopal ministers on the
work of the Church, said that
forty years ago the Methodist Episco-
palians numbered 7ao 600 and now they
numbered 100000 Then there were
only three important educational insti-
buttons, while now there were a large
number connected with the denomina-
ton and the educational work among
the colored population alone was greater
than all the educational work of forty
years ago.

The cooking school which was con-
Quoted at the Farmers Institute last
week was an interesting feature. Mrs,
Hayes, the lady in charge, is evidently
q practical cook, and gives instruction
in a clear and forcible manner. She
showed how to prepare vegetables,
bread, salads, soups, how to bake and
broil-in fact explained everything re-
latiVe to the preparation of the ordina-
~, everyday dishes, and furthermore
asserted that, at prices current in New
Ulm to-day, the expenses Of living
might be reduced very considerably,
if not even one half, if proper care was
exercised by the housewife by taking
care of the food that is ignorantly or
otherwise wasted. Much of the food
now wasted might, with proper know
ledge OF the art Of cooking and prepar-
ing certain dishes, be utilized to good
advantage and with perceptible
saving in the cost Of living. Be-
sides this the DOCTORS visits to the
family would be much less frequent
if the culinary science was understood !.
Many other facts Of like nature were
stated by Mrs Hayes and many new
methods explained, The department
IS new one in Farmers Instituta.Work.
but the venture is certainly not bad
one.
