CONGRESSMAN Grosvenor. OF
Ohio. has a theory to account for
the Republican defeat. He says
that Andrew Carnegie was the
responsible party. The Mckinley
Bill reduced the duty on steel bill
let's, rails, ETC.; wherefore Mr.. Cars
negie, "the greatest coward and
sneak of the day." took his re-
venge by precipitating the Homes
stead trouble last July, knowing
that the effect would be to incense
every workingman against the
party of protection. Mr.. Carnegie's
answer to this severe indictment
will be looked for with interest.
We fear it will be only the same
as that which the elder MI. Weller
so much depended upon, "a
halibi."

ACQUITTED.

SAMUEL Critchlow. the alleged
Homestead %-ioter, whose trial was
made q sort of test case by the
prosecution, because the evidence
against him seemed the most con-
elusive, was acquitted by the jury
on Friday last.
Six witnesses for the prosecu-
ton swore vigorously that they
saw him aim and fire at the invad-
ing Pinkertons, and Attorney Robb
made the most Of their resti-
mony.
Critchlow's counsel, William M.
Erwin, E.q., of Sioux Falls, Da-
kots, made q ringing plea for the
defence. He contended that the
prosecution had brought no evir
dence to prove that the men, wom-
en- and children were on the
ground for any unla xful purpose
They were there to resist an in
vasion by armed foreign men
"armed by Quartermaster Frick."
"Was the battle at Homeeead a
riot or was it an unwarranted in
vaeion2" he asked. eff the latter,
that's the end of it, for the people
never delegated awaytheir right to
repel invasion. Unless the right of
thePinkertons to be there was made
plain, the people should have shot
them down, should have shot them
after leaving the barges, should
have followed them to their hearth
stones and shot them a: Gods own
altar, and il possible should have
followed them across the great
boundary"
It is not likely, after Critchlow's
acquittal, that any Of the so-called
rioters will be found guilty either
of murder, conspiracy or the more
preposterous charge of treason"
concocted by the legal authorities
at the mitigation Of Carnegie &
Go. It is not a miscarriage of juse
ticei fthe principle of killing is ne
MURDER be established in all eases
where the victims are Pinkerten
thugs.

A REPUBLICAN BABY-cRY.

This 10 rich! It is really too
amusing! The idea of the party
of Quay and Dudley and Martin
and Morton and Reid and John
Wanamaker and Carnegie and
Frick having the cheek to advapee
such an argument, to hide their
discontinue!
Their organ, the New York
Press, says:
"Tbe policy of the new admin
istration will be shaped and direct
ed by millionaires and monopolists.
They nominated Mr.. Cleveland
and furnished the money to elect
him, and they will run his admin
istration or there will be q row
about it."
In the nomination of Mr.. Cleve-
land there never was a more strik,
ing manifestation of the will and
power of the people, the common
masses. al against the p~lutocrats,
the autocrats, the politicians, the
millionaires and the public plum.
derers.
His nomination and triumphant
election was nothing short of 9
grand, resistless popular revolu
ton against boesism, fraud, corrup'
ton and bribery, so universally
practied and persisted in by the
party so long in power.

~ PRINCE Bismarck made the re-
markablo statement recently, in
he course of his altogether res
markable personal revelation, that
he purposely "fxed",i Z. e. forged, q
despatch OIL the 14th of July, 1870,
so al to misrepresent the treatment
accorded by King William of
Prussia to the French ambassador;
the result being that France, feel
ing herself unpardonably insulted
in the person of her representative,
had no alternative but to declare
war. This was precisely what
Bismark wanted, as he was conf.
dent that the end would be the de-
feat of France, the uniication of
Germany, and the strengthening
Of the Hohenzollern dynasty. To
achieve these ends he AYERS that he
did not scruple to force a horrible
war upon an unofending neighbor.
The man of blood and iron never,
in all his callcus career made .
more brutal and cynical declara~
ton. If he speaks the truth, he
deceived his countrymen and the
world at large by q crime for which
he deserves the gallows. Chancel-
lor Caprivi says that the statement
lie not true. and that King William
did treat Benedict exactly as
stated in the famous despatch
which, therefore, was not "fxed'
by Bismarck. Unfortunately the
evidence does not support this
version of the incident. Bismarck
is not merely q liar to~day: He
was, as he boasts, a liar and a
sccundrel twenty-five years ago
none the less, but all the more, be-
cause his infamy involved the loss
of thousands of innocent lives, the
ruin of millions, and the foundation
of national hatreds which may
yet cost more millions. What 9
difference it would make in tbs
history of the world if such crime,
were called by their true name,
always, instead of being CLOSED
over by the high sounding words
glory, patriotism, diplomacy, ant
SO forth.

cord Of Wisconsin in this respect should
be fully understood.
We all understand the vitslizing in.
fluencs of electricity on animal life.
The human body is much better con-
ductor than dry air, and when existing
in such air not only retains the electric
itY received from tie earth, but con-
tinua " gathers it from the atmosphere,
thu yigoratiDg the muscles, strength
ening the constitution and rendering
the physical system almost impregna-
BILE to the microbes of disease. When
the atmosphere is heavily charged with
moisture it becomes better conductor
than the human dy, aud the body
rapidly looses this tonic force. The
low mortality Of the north central states
is sometimes attributed to the compaf-
aliyely thin population, but il is more
reasonable to give the credit to the
atmospheric conditions of these states.
If the population should become IS
dense as in the Atlantic Coast States,
there is no reason 10 believe That the
death rate will ever become as high rs
in the latter states. The cool, dry, in
MIGRATING air of Wisconsin is one Of
the most munificient blessings Of nature.
