BLAINE RIGHT, m,K1NLEY WRONG.

McKinleys appointment would not
please MIR, Blaine. There has been q
marked GOODNESS between Blaine and
Mckinley, which dates back to the
time Mr.. Blame appeared before the
WAYS and Means Committee and urged
the insertion of his reciprocity clause
i'm the tariff bill Mckinley showed
him but sCant courtesy, and declined to
do it. Mr.. Blaine succeeded in getting
the Senate to do it, but he has no spec
ial love for Mr. Mckinley, although he
did go out into his district in the cam
paigu and make a speech for him, IN
which he practically ignored the tariff
ard dwelt on the beauties of reciprOc-
ity.- Washington Correspondent New
York Press.
Commenting on the above the Toledo
Blade says: "Well, Blaine was right in
his advocacy of reciprocity, and if
Major Mckinley really was opposed to
the insertion of the reciprocity clause
in the tariff bill, he was wrong" The
Blade then proceeds to announce its
position fairly and squarely upon the
assertion of the same correspondent
that Sherman is grooming Mckinley
for the Governorship, with the view of
pushing him for the Presidency as fol-
lows:
And if Major Mckinley is allowing
himself to be grOOmed by Sherman, he
is doing himself an injury with the
"Blalne guards"-the thousands of
OHIO Republicans who have not yet
abandoned the hope Of following the
white plume of the man from Maine to
success in a Presidential campaign.

FASHIoNA ABLE LENT.

Tomorrow will be Ash Wednesday
the beginning of the Lenten season
when the faithful, metaphorically

The body is too we'll treated during

to diet ourselves and cause salutary re.

amusements, such as dancing and op-

patience as counteT-irritants. We try
to be useful, as well as ornamental. So
we don our thimble and apron aud
make descent upon the bargain cOun-
ters, in search of essentials for the com
log fray. The dressmaker is engaged,

goods, reign supreme. After the 40

MARSHAL ROBERTS.
Is He Guilty of Conduct UnbecOming
an 0fticerS -LOuisville's Case ia
Court.

No criminal case that has been heard
before any justice in this county for some
time has attracted the crowd that was in
Squire Ringle's court room this morning.
The case on trial was the State VS. Edward
Roberts, marshal of Louisville, and the
crime charged was assault, and conduct
unbecoming an officer.
Il. Morgan Landon, the prosecuting wit
ness, was first placed on the stand aud
in substance testified as follows: On the
evening OF January 81, 1891, l was in a
saloon at Louisville when Ed. Roberts,
marshal of Louisville, stepped into the
place and said he wished to speak with
me; said he wanted me togo to Mayors
house with him as he had business with
me. We stepped outside the saloon, when
he said he had note of 80 against me
held by the Mayor, for fees in former
case. l objected to going when he said,
"You will go with me or will lock you
ups" went with him quite ways, when
he began to handle his mace, which he
had in his side pocket, threateningly. |
took it away from him and we proceeded
toward the Mayors house. started to-
ward home before we reached Mayors
house and Roberts followed, saying he
would shoot me unless stopped. Went
directly to the house of my sister and went
TO bed about $3.50 o'clock in the evening.
Miss Landon was next called and
testified that on the evening of Jan;
3lst, after her brother had
arrived Marshal Roberts, accompanied by
number of men came TO her home.
Roberts knocked at the door and de
manded admittance saying that he had a
warrant which he failed to show for Ian.
don's arrest, she refused to let him in
when he said ~ am - If don't have
him dead or alive. He got inside the
house when she pushed him out and
locked the door. A short time afterwards
he returned and broke in the door but
did not take Landon to the cooler. A
few statements were made by the lady but
! nothing new was developed. Two more
witness for the state were placed on the
stand but nothing was stated that had not
already bGen mentioned. Constable Fred
Slagle said that he went to Louisville on
the afternoon of Wednesday February 4.
He went TO arrest Roberts and met him at
| the p. FIT. w. q Z. depot at that place. He
| asked Roberts If he had a warrant when
he arrested Landon and was told by Rob.
erts that he Or lberts) had had a warrant,
but no affidavit. Roberts said he destroy.

This closed the testimony OF the state
A motion was made by the defendant to

feudant guilty of any crime. Justice Rim.
gle oveTruled the motion. An objection
by the defendant, was sustained by the
court, to allow no testimony in regard to
Roberts relation to Landon's wife to be
produced in the case.
The defendant waived further hearing
this afternoon and asked to be bound over
to common pleas court. He was held tC

VIC. MCCABE, a venerable Republi-
can, and an old time Washington cor
respondent, writes from the seat of
government as follows:
Every new reciprocity treaty Secre-
tary Blaine negotiates is nail in the
coffin of the unpopular Mckinley Tar
if bill. 1t is the opening wedge of en-
larged or free trade, with the sugar
coating which now always accompan-
les the nauseous bill, But it is all the
same the movement toward free trade.
with reciprocity as an issue, Mr.. Nc
Kinley is out of political calculation,
and with pronounced protection the
issue, Mr., Blaine slides backward"

A BOLD BURGLAR

Enters the Residence of Bryson W.
Smith, on the Cook Farm, and Gets $50
in Cash.
One of the bodest burglaries yet re-
ported was committed at the residence of
MIR. Bryson W. Smith, the dairyman liv.
ing on the Cook farm, last night. Mr..
Smith had been in the city attending
lodge, and did not get home until late
hour, retiring Immediately upon his ar
rival. Shortly before midnight his wife
was awakened by the jingling of silver
coins, and when she raised her head up
from her pillow was surprised to see a
large man wearing derby hat and u
high-collared overcoat standing before
her.
She called her husband, but he thinking
it was only a case of nightmare, paid
little attention to her. She shook him
again, and said she was certain there was
man in the house. Mr.. Smith then got
up and made an examination. A window
on the front porch was discovered open
and huge pocket knife was stuck in the
frame to keep the sash up. After enter
ing in this manner the burglar opened the
door before going through the house. An ex-
animation was made of dresser in which
several dollars in cash were stored and
one OF the small drawers was missing. 1t
was found later in the yard minus the con-
tents. The box from the milk wagon con-
tanning small amount of money was
also opened and the cash extracted. Mr..
Smith also carried some money in his
pantaloons, which were left hanging in
the bedroom. He found his pants in an
adjoining room with the pockets turned
inside out. II. is needless to say that the
upon figuring up his cash this morning,
MIR. Smith found it about $50 short. II
the robber will return, Mr.. Smith will give
him the knife found in the window sill.

a candidate who will be strong In Ham
ilton county, where Foraker holds
sway. The rapid organization of the
Farmers Alliance in Ohio has thrown
a new element of calculation into the
situation, and the Republican leaders
are afraid Mckinley will be the weak
est man in the list among, the farmers,
as the Alliance, as a body, east, west
and south, are pretty unanimous
against the Mckinley tariff. There are
no pig iron furnaces in the Maumee
valley, but plenty of crude oil and nat
ural gas, which makes the Foraker
element strong there, of which the
Blade is oracle, while in the valleys
of the Mahoning and Tuscarawas, and
in the classic dells of Killbuck Greek,
Mckinley still stands solemn ideal
idol. Hence the wide difference in the
talk between the Leader and the Blade.
We have already noticed a cold anti.
Mckinley wave, moving up from the
Ohio river valley, and if this is to besup
plemented by chilling fog from the
murky marshes of the Maumee, it will
behoove our Republican friends in this
| neighborhood to put on more confident
airs and exert more alertness, If they
would prevent the uutimely desecra-
| tion of our idol.

Leader.
Who would have thought anything
quite 50 idiotic could have escaped
from the Leader sanctum. According
to Mckinley, his bill was TO preserve
the American markets for Americans
and to exclude the balance of the world.
Now we are told by one of the McKln-
ley organs that the bill has not preserved
our home markets for our own people,
but has set all the foreigners competing
for our market. Now if the foreigners
get hold of our markets what is to be-
come of us.

IL now transpires that Sitting Bull
was murdered, and the so-called Indian
war, which cost us S2,OOO,OOO, was the
legitimate result of scoundrelism
among the Indian agents of President
Harrison. They were trying to get
rich, all of a sudden, by selling the
government rations and clothing to
settlers and cowboys and letting the
Indians hunt, or starVe. Here is the
way it was, as told by a down east

TIE Chinese New Year festivities
continue all this week. One essen.
italy heathenish feature of the cele-
bration is that every Chinaman tries to
pay off all his debts before he begins to
celebrate. In this he proves another
striking distinction between himself
aud his American cousins, who load
themselves so heavily with debts at the
holiday season that it takes them until
the next season to unload.

Intelligence was received this morning
from North Industry that q workman had
been killed. Coroner 6penheimer was
notified and in company with NEWS.
DEMOCRAT reporter hastened to the scene
of the accident. Upon arriving the story
of the disaster in which one man met
with terrible death was elected.
Henry Lakes, aged %, miner working
in the Willow Spring Bank of the Ridge
| way, Burton Coal Co., two miles from
North Industry, went into the bank last
evening at 6 o'clock to work. He was the
only workman in the bank at the time,
and the circumstances causing his death
! can only be conjectured. At o'clock
men on the outside of the bank heard
Lakes make blast to loosen a vein of
coal, and that is the last that was heard of
him until this morning at o'clock when
his body was found lying bruised and
| bleeding under mass of shale.
II had been Lakes purpose just before
| quitting work this morning to blast the
shale and the blast had been already pre-
| pared. In making the blast in the vein of
coal to facilitate his work, piece of shale
/ feet long, 3 feet wide and inches thick,
weighing 1900 pounds, became loosened
and fell with terrible force on the lone
! workman.
1t is supposed that he heard the shale
cracking and felt that he would be buried
under it, hence endeavored to make his
escape. He was too late, however, as he
was struck by the huge mass and his life
rudely cut short.
Coroner Openheimer, together with sew
eral physicians, who were called, made an
examination of the body and took testi.
mony as to the probable cause of the un.
| fortunate mans death. 1t was found that
his skull was fractured in two places, his
spinal column broken, and his left ankle
fractured twice.
| The physicians who examined the body
were unanimously of the opinion that
Lakes must have suffered great agony as
there was every evidence that his death
occurring as it did while he was alone
deep in the recesses of the earth, was q
lingering and terrible one.
| The deceased leaves wife to mourn
his untimely death. The couple were in
comparatively poor circumstances. A
peculiarly sad circumstance which sur
rounds the death of Lakes is the fact that
his wife is in delicate health and is soon
to become a mother. The grief of the
woman when informed of her husbands
awful death was indeed pitiful to behold
There was nothing brought out in the
testimony taken by the coroner which
would tend to in the slightest degree make
the company culpable, the accident being
due simply to the loosening of the shale
by the blast used by the unfortunate
man.
Coroner Openheimer will render yer.
diet in accordance with the facts given
above, namely, that death was caused by
an accident.
| Coroner Openheimer and the News
| DEMOCRAT reported had an difficult time
in reaching the scene of the accident, be.
ing compelled to walk two miles through
mud and slush. They were literally
covered with mud when they reached the
| mine.

GOV. NoRrHEN ON JAY GOULD.

Gov. Northen, of Georgia, refused to
participate in reception to Jay Could
at Atlanta. Gov. Northen does not
recognize Jay Gould as a public bene-
factor. In letter to the committee,
who we're making big fuss over
Gould, he says:
81 must be allowed to say that l do
not recognize Mr.. Gould as visiting the
State in any official capacity, but rath-
er in his own interests, without regard
to the interests Of the masses of the
people of the State. | may be mistaken
in my measure of the man, but l am
candid in saying that l do not think his
methods as pTaChsed in other sections
where he has had power would develop
our State in the line of the public
good"
Gov Northen writes an article to the
Southern CU!tiYatOr, farmers paper,
on MIR. Goulds mission, in which he
very tTuthfuly and pertinently says:
under the unwise administration of
our Government" the Governor writes,
",here has grown up communism of
wealth, making an aggregation of pow

conditions have induced communism
of poverty, made up of all classes and
