Eksfuz, Feb 12.-Ovink 10 the I'm
proper support of the GnngNays In
what Is known as the McKeea mine,
owned by The Giendon Iron Company,
and the failure to repair pieceof road
which was In danger of sinking, Ed
win Werkheiser lost his life to-day In q
horrible manner.
He was driving two-horse team
along the road, when the ground
caved in and both horses pitched into
the abyss. Before Werkheiser could
jump from his seat the wagon fol-
lowed, and the man was carried down
with 1t. He gave forth an agonizing
cry, and Lewis Bisby, who was work
ing about fifty feet away, looking up,
saw the man disappear down the hole.
He ran to the spot, calling for aid,
but when he reached the side OF the
hole all that he could see was the rear
wheel of the wagon. and but a small
portion OF that. The earth covered
everything else. He heard Werkheiser
calling for help and the horses making
q noise. but these sounds ceased in a
few minutes and all was still. Will
ing hands were soon about the excava-
tion to render any assistance possible,
but nothing could be done.
The cave-in had occurred over shaft
that was sixty-iive feet below the sur.
face. The ground over this shaft was
known to be working, but the road
was left open for teams to pass over.

Tor1izA. Kan. Feb u. Mr.. Ciege-
lands declaration against the ffae
coinage OF silver has been general
topic OF conversation among the poll
ticians to-day. The Democratic mem
bers OF the Legislature, with the ex-
ception of Hoover, OF Ford County,
and Senator Carroll, of Leavenworth,
are enthusiastic Cleveland men, but
they are also enthusiastic In their sup
port OF free coinage.
The Hill Democrats are prompt to
claim that Kansas Is now certain to
send O Hill delegation to the next
Democratic convention.
II Cleveland had given any hope
whatever OF free silver conversion he
could have easily carried tho State.
Unless the Democrats nominate q free
silver man the Peoples party will
sweep this State in 1892. The Peoples
party politicians have met all OF the
overtures made them by the Demo-
Gratis by declaring that Cleveland
would be the Democratic standard
bearer and that the West must have a
silver man.

Sister Catherine has been in a retreat

The DEMOCRATIC papers might as
well put an end first as last TO the i'm
preston they are trying to create that
the Democrats lost New Castle County
by mere slip, an accident, or some
thing of that kind and that it is securely
Democratic in sentiment and by a
majority OF votes. II they believe
what they say they were never more
grossly deceived, and there is no use
deceiving the people any longer In
stead of there being a Democratic
majority in the county there is at least
n Republican majority Of 1,5oO II not
1000. All the Democratic maiorl-
ties eonircd up in the county
have been under the infamous assess
ment laws Of 1875 enacted expressly to
cheat Republicans out OF their votes,
and the men who had hand in pass.
ing those infamous laws know that
what we say is true. Let our Demo.
cratic contemporaries tell the truth on
this subject and deceive the people no
longer

Possibly before the RnrruticAA meets
It, readers this evening county collec-
tors will be appointed by the Levy
Court but II they should not be ap-
pointed by that time we want the Re
publican majority of the court to I'M
derstand that they are disappointing
the expectations Of those who elected
them to Office, and every day they pro-
long this contest is increasing this
public feeling of disappointment.
The office OF tax collector Is of very
uncertain tenure anyhow-in fact
hardly worth squabbling over, why
should the standing of our Republican
members of the court be discounted
and the Republican party be injured
by an acrimonious quarrel as to who
should be tax collectors.
The court would have acted wisely
had it appointed collectors on the first
day of its session, and then the contest
would have been over and any RULED
feelings engendcred by the appoint
ments would have all been claimed
down by this time, There is too much
Importance attached to tho political
aspect of the affair. The great moving
motive should be to have honest tax
collectors-men who will collect the
property taxes, poll taxes, dog
taxes. all kinds of taxes, and who will
give every opportunity and provide
every facility for the people to pay
those taxes.
We want no moro sharp practices In
the collection OF taxes. II would b,
sweet revenge, we know, for Republi
cans to give the Democrats taste o.
their own medicine but this must moi
be thought of. We want to see ne
more long lines Of tax payers waiting
with dinner kettles hanging on thei
arms, to pay their taxes, while the ia,
collectors deliberately draw on thei
overcoats and leave their rooms as Tn
clock would strike IL or o'clock. W,
want no more lodging around at
tending wedding, here funeral
there a party in this place and a jam
boree in another, as excuses to keel
away from the tax office.
We want the taxes collected and tn,
Republican party wants men who vii
do it. This Is the first and paramount
object. We want no collectors VIII
are to be political managers of thei
party. We want men who will SO
neither Republican nor a Democra

pay taxes. This is the stand we too
when we denounced the sharp prat
tices of the Democratic collectors, thl
