turning Walsh out of his house. personally,

about that?
A. Why, no; no, sir; no, sir. The only
business that l ever had with Walsh sold
him the goods. All things else was done by
Mr.. Heck
@. In the business of Kiefer & Heck Mr..
Heck was the collector, was he not!
A. Yes, sir, he was the home man.

This ended the taking of testimony.
Mr.. WheeIock stated he had other affi-

between Mr.. Keifer and him, they were
technically excluded from the investi-
cation.
Very Easily Reached.
There was no delay on the part of the
members of the investigating commit
tee in announcing their decision. A
meeting was held at the close of the in
vestigation. and their decision eXoner-
ated Col. Kiefer from the charges
leveled against him. To quote the
words of committeeman: after
carefully weighing the testimony the
board came to the conclusion that there
was nothing developed rejecting upon
the integrity of Col. Kiefer." Taking
the various charges, they find:
First Charge: Openheim's - The
weight of testimony was OH Kiefer'S
side.
Second Charge: Pugh's-Considering
the facts of the case, the board finds no
cause for impeaching the integrity and
business methods OF Col. Kiefer.
Third Charge: Poppe's-Col. Kiefer
was not in duty nor in law bound to
pay for the debts of his son, who was
over age and in business.
Fourth Charge: DEMONSTRATING re-
fecting on the integrity of Col. Kiefer.

than ever before to accomplish such re-
forms as will be beneficial to the labor
cause. The contest for the enforcement
of the eight-hour plan in localities
where it has not been accepted prom
ises to be a peaceable struggle in con-
trast with former labor revolutions.
Although there is pretty general
strike among the carpenters in all COM
munities where the shorter working
day has not been recognized, still there
are no indications of riots, nor even of
a disturbance OF other business inter
ests. The fact that the labor organiza-
tons are pursuing such conservative
course and adopting such intelligent
methods is a cheering evidence of the
success Of their movement.

CLARKsoN.s ALARM.

There have been voices wailing in the
Zines past that the enterprising, inteIli-
gent young men were leaving the Re-
publican party, and the leaders in edu-
catiOnal lines were developing broader
intellectual life than that bounded by
even gilded statues and defunct issues.
Now CLARKSoN adds to the alarm the
startling fact that the people don't
want to read their messy literature.
The political contests are now to be
fought in the public press. The people
read the facts and keep up with the
flow of current history. The time was
when it was claimed that Republicans
did about all of the reading and sup
ported most of the papers. A genera
ton ago there was ground for
the assertion that the press was
against the Democracy. But CLARK
son finds that the tables are
now reversed. Most of the great papers
of the cities are opposed to the Repub-
lican policies, the magazines are nearly
all against them, and the Iowa heads
man finds that even the agricultural
journals are Injected with what he calls
free trade, Those who would reform
the tariff in the interest of the people
are classed as free traders. He speci-
fies little in detail. In New York, out
Of l, 100000 daily issues but 100000 are
Republican. In Boston, Philadelphia,
Chicago, and nearly all the cities, the
kading and most widely read papers
ire against the Republicans. A can
fass of county near Chicago shows
that $50 families that have been Repub-
licans are taking Democratic papers,
while but ninety-fve Democrats took
Republican papers. This shows that
the people are absorbing the gospel of
political righteousness, and are moving
out OF the Republican camps.

Give Everybody a Chance.

Evansville Courier
Now that the surplus in the treasury
is to be given away in bounties-that is,
if the Mckinley bill becomes law-the
neople will more readily see the favorit-
ism that certain classes have enjoyed
under the tariff laws. In one of his
speeches during the campaign Harrison
alluded to the fact that the tariff was so
impalpable in its operations that no one
knew when he was paying it. But now
that it is proposed to take the tariff off
of sugar, and give specified bounty
out of the treasury to sugar growers in
place of the tariff, the thing will not be
so impalpable as 1t was before. The
people will easily see that they are
being robbed outright, and we may ey-
pect to hear them protesting pretty
loudly against the robbery. AT least, If
bounties are to be the order of the day,
everybody should have share of the
