man nor party can succeed in 1892

all Western and Southern men will
come to that opinion soon.
HEAVY rioting took place at the
Frick coke works near Pittsburg,
Pennsylvania, this week. Men and
women to the number of 1900 or
more participated, and the works
were wrecked. Nobody was killed,
and but one was seriously hurt
though dynamite was exploded in
one place.
ITALIANS are declaring all over
the country they would not fight
against their native country in case
of war with the United States, and
some declare most Of them would
return to Italy. This shows both
the value they put upon their oath
Of allegiance to this country and
their lack of worth as citizens.

and Judge Gray, of Indiana, for
their standard bearers, tariff reform,
free coinage of silver, no more sub

control of railroads, telegraph and
other natural monopolies and the
naturalization of the Australian
ballot law for it's platform, the dem
ocratic party could not fail of sue
cess in 1892.
DELAWARE is not a very large state
and hasn't any very large states
men. Nevertheless her legislature
has just committed a very large
offense against justice by passing a
law by which every man in the state
who happens to be out of employ
ment may be arrested and made to
work in chain gang sixty days
for the offense being denied work.
Such is modern justice.
WEEK before last tin plate plant
was being erected at J olliett, Illinois,
last week it was in actual operation
ut Apollo, Pennsylvania, and was
turning out tin cheaper and Of
better quality than the English
"pauper labor" article. The latest
to hand this week is that the actual
work has been inaugurated of erect
ing the first tin plate works in this
country near st: Louis. Next!
THE price of cotton per pound
Was 81 cents less in February, 1891,
than in the same month in 1890,
and there was no home demand,
though the demand abroad was
good. A similar falling off is re-
ported in the boot and shoe trade.
There is also great and constant
shrinking in the production of iron,
accompanied by decreasing wages.
And there is no remedy except in
an increased money circulation.
Mrs. ANDREWS, charged with bru-
tally maltreating her little step-son
at Eastonville, Colorado, hanged
herself in Jail few days ago. She
left letters denying the charges in
toto, and her denial is being received
with a great deal of credence by her
neighbors, who probably acted as
communities frequently will do,
merely from excitement. If her
story is true she was shamefully
abused, and both her husband and
his mother should be hanged.
