A pl.ckv Woman.

\ reeent telegram from Newton
 Missouri, says: 4 report comes from across the Arkansas line of case
 wherein a band of regulators go, decidedly the worst of an attempt
 to reform one of their neighbors.
 Charles Lawson has been living
 about eight miles from Newton. in
 the Ozark mountains, across the
 state line, for the past two years,
 and all those who knew him best speak highly of Lawson and his wife, He came to this country with the
 intention Of settling upon govern ment land. and he selected a piece
 and entered upon it as early as pos sible. Efe wac unfortunate enough
 to incur the ill-will of member of
 the band of "black caps by select ing a piece of timber land that had been occupied by the said member,
 as a squatter. This squatter, James
 Daggett, had his full amount of land fron the government, but wish ed to hold the piece of timber land
 for his brother, who he expected to come from Indiana and take up the land. Lawson made his entry and after tedious contest succeeded Tn getting his patent. During the whole time from the day he first
 made the claim he has been subject ed to petty annoyances, and in some instances grieyous wrong, but he has borne them mildly, as he said he wanted no trouble with his neigh bors. He and his wife were we'll liked by all with the exception of the elan that was backing Daggeit in his nlisdeeds. Mrs. Lawson is a small woman. but she is brave woman and Is as nervy as her hus- band in their fight for a home. On June 2S, Lawson received letter warming him that. as he would not leave the country where he was not wanted, when he saw that his neigh bors did not like him, he would be given forty-eight hours to get away in, and If he was not gone then, he would have to take the consequences. Lawson was not scared and went about his business.
 On the night of the 30th as he was entering his yard, having been to town, he was suddenly confronted bv about ten men wearing black gowns and their heads covered with black caps. He was grasped and tied and the band started off to the timber with him, Mrs. Lawson heard the disturbance and quickly divining what was going on, she grasped her husbands rifle and followed in the dusk until the band with its captive stopped and proceeded to strip the victim preparatory to administering a whipping. Just as the lash was raised to give the first blow, shot rang out and the whipper dropped; Tn quick succession came two more shots and two more fell while the re- mainder of the black caps fled panic stricken as the brave little woman pumped lead after them.
 While Mrs. Lawson was cutting her husbands bonds the last two who had fallen crawled away in the darkness and escaped, but the whip per lay with a broken thigh, when his black raiment was stripped from him, it was found he was Daggett, and he was sent home by the man who was about to be his victim. When the matter became known, the in- dignation of the neighbors was so great that they set in to hunt down the band and succeeded in placing five of them in jail where they now lay awaiting trial.

 Ex-Governor Hubbard, of Texas. thinks that but for Clevcland's anti silver letter there would have been no doubt of his renomination by ac- clamation. Under the circumstances. the x-governor says: II think it un- wise and certainly impolite thus early to commit the democratic party to any one man or leader in the presidential contest"
 There are many who say that if Gov. Campbell can carry Ohio a second time, he will be formidable figure in the next democratic con yention, even though Cleveiands courage in forcing the tariff issue to the front had made the way for his success. Springfield Republican (Mug)
 Mir. Mckinley has great elements of strength and great elements of weakness as candidate for governor at this time. He is an able, honest. clean man; he is the author of the present tariff policy of the nation that has made the party creed for 1892; he is the ablest defender of high tariff taxes in his state, and equaled by few in the nation, and the mean, partisan desperation that gerrymandered him out of his seat in congress did much to strengthen him with fair-minded people.-Phil- adelphia Times Und.

one Of our faults-that Of Presbyterians
and Congregationalists. In the first
place, immediate saunctification at
death is contrary to the doctrine OF the
resurrection of the body. According TO
the teachings OF our own standards, as
we'll as the Scriptures, men are not per-
fectly sanctfied until the resurrection
of the body.
1.-The doctrine Of immediate sanctih-
cation in death is contrary TO the doctrine
of the judgment OF the last great day.
One of the great evils in modern the
ology has been the exaltation of the pri-
vate Judgment at death. venture to
affirm that there Is not a pas
sage in the Word of God
from Genesis to Revelation that
goes contrary to the doctrines OF the
sanctification after death-it is doc
trine Of traditional theology.
The doctrine Of immediate sanctifi-
cation at death overtbrows the import
ance of Jesus Christ. Christ was per-
fectly innocent, but he had to be sancti-
fed himself.
"Now, don't you see that IL we pass
into the middle state sinlesS that some-
thing more is needed? We have to go
through that practice of life until we
have attained the image OF Jesus
Christ"

FARMERS WEEK.

bllitss Of the Nsstiugs-0p-

Candidates

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, November TO-
This is surely to be the farmers week
at Indianapolis. Every known organi-
zation of American farmers holds some
sort OF meeting here. The Supreme
Council OF the Farmers Alliance and
Industrial Union will be the main thing,
besides the Supreme Council of the
Farmers Mutual Benefit Association,
the Executive Committee of the Confed-
Grated Industrial Unions, the Executive
Committee Of the Peoples Party, the
National Board of Organizers, the Re-
form Press Association, and the Nation
al State Agents Association, all OF
which hold meetings.
All the allied interests of these con-
Germs are being considered generally.
Shall they be taken collectively and
merged into one interest, is a question
that may receive more or less attention.
What hinders this, and how far shall
politics be involved are other problems.
Will the Alliance nominate national
ticket, or will it be left for the Peoples
Party, is question that the outsiders
are vaguely pondering.
the purpose Of nominating tickets, but
for transacting the vast business of the
interests involved and for considering
measures looking to the future of the
allied concerns.
Naturally there Is a great deal of
political gossip in connection with the
meeting. The hardest political fight
will be made on the Endorsement OF the
Peoples Party by the Alliance. The
consensus of opinion of the delegates
already here is that the Alliance will
not endorse the third party movement
but will indorse that party whose plat
form most closely proclaims Alliance
principles.
The members of the Alliance are
piqued because Republicans are making
much of Alliance opposition tc Cleve-
land. A number of them are quoted as
being opposed to Cleveland because Of
his position on free coinage. But"
said President Polk to reporter, ''while
it is true that they are opposed to Cleve-
land the Alliance will vote as readily
against Harrison or Blaine or Cleveland
or Hill, or any other man who does not
advocate the Alliance principles. We
don't vote for men, but for principles,
consequently it would be the veriest
inconsistency for US to vote for Cleve-
land and Harrison, who are single
standard men.

WASHINGTON, D. c., November To-
The hackers of Mr.. Stephen B. Elkins
for the position of Secretary of War, to
replace Secretory OF War Proctor, re-
signed, are not as hopeful Of success as
they were.
1t is understood that certain members
of the Republican National Committee
have striven in every way to convince
the President that he could not make
wiser move than to appoint Elkins, and
there is reason to believe the President
would have liked very much to do it.
But, on the other hand there
is an influential section Of the
Presidents immediate supporters who
are strongly opposed to Elkins, and they
warned Mr.. Harrison that il he placed
Mr.. Elkins in the Cabinet he would
alienate those whom he could not
afford to have opposed to him.
Moreover, the President found that
considerable number of West Virginia
Republicans would not by any means
throw up their hats over Elkins's APP
pointment, so it seems that the Presl-
dent has about given up all idea
of appointing him, although Elkins's
friends on the National Republican Com
mittee and those who are close to them
still endeavor to create the impression
that Elkins is still "in it," The latest
report is that the President would like
to appoint California man to the Cabi-
net but California is so hopelessly for
BIainne that the President can not find
Republican of any prominence in the
State whom he could trust to advance
the cause Of his denomination. So it is
thought he will finally give the place to

WILL BE TRIED.
A Civil Service violator's Demurrer Over
ruled.


WASHINGTON, November 16.-In the
Supreme Court of the District of Co.
lumbia to-day the demurrer in the case
of the United States against
Charles A. Newton, charged
with violating section IL OF the
civil service act was unanimously over
ruled and the case sent to the Criminal
Court for trial. Defendant gave notice
that he would apply for writ of error.
Commissioner Thompson, OF the Civil
Service Commission, was seen by an AS
sociated Press reporter and questioned
as to his views upon the decision. He
said that the Supreme Court OF the
United States in the case OF Newton Nj.
Curtis, held that the law for
bidding government employees to
solicit or receive from each
other money for political purposes
was constitutional, but the decision rem
dered to-day goes much farther and
holds that all solicitations for political
purposes within government buildings
are unlawful.
The effect would be to practically stop
political assessments, and TO leave
All government employees free from con-
tribute or not as they see tit. This de-
cision is a complete vindication Of the
course of the commissioners which has
endeavored to enforce the law and pro-
tect government employees from en-
forcd assessments. 1t is entirely salts
factory to the commission.
