There is wide bond of sympathy be-
tween the English press and Democratic
papers OF this country. This is not un'
natural. Both are engaged in the work OF
advancing British interests at the expense
of American interests, hence it is no sur
prise to find them in hearty accord in
ascrihing the recent riot at Homestead to
the protective tariff.

Testing a Terror.

When we opened the first -Four
X" mine in Nevada, it was no time
at all before a lively town was
founded and hundreds of people
came pouring in. In those days
every community had it's terror
He was supposed to be able to out
drink, out-yell, out-shoot, and out
fight everything on legs in his jur-
isdiction. Some times he was a
free-lance, and again he was en-
ployed as a sort of policeman.
We wanted a man to protect COM
pany property, and one day giant
of a chap, weighing 205 pounds
and 6 feet tall, applied for the place.
"Are you a fighter?" was the
first question asked Of him.
Il am,' he replied. "I've had
seventy-nine fights in seven weeks" p"
Afraid of anything mortalP"
Nothing mortal or immortal"
"Shoot both handed? ?"
III do"
Use the bowie-knife?"
Perfectly at home with it, sir"
'How many men have you killed
this last year?"
swell, this has been an off year
with me, as ! was sick abed for six
weeks, and so l haven't got but
leven."
Suppose, now, that terror from
some other camp should come over
here to clean you outp Have you
ever met any other terror and
downed him-a genuine, first-class
terror from the headwaters of Fight
ing CreekP"
~ can't say that ] ever have, sir
not a regular terror"
Then you can't tell how you
would actP"
"Why, | should probably fight
him."
but you can't say for sure.--
However, come back at 1 o'clock
this afternoon"
We went over to Cedar Flats,
five miles away, for their terror.
We knew him to be the genuine
stuff, and when he arrived we post
ed him as to what was wanted. At
Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1892-06-29
WHOLE NO. 1890.

4 o'clock when our alleged terror
returned to the shaft, the Cedar
Flats terror suddenly waltzed out
on him with hair-raising whoop
and called out:
"Whar's the bloody, bloomin
hyena who has been passin' hisself
off around here as a fighter?-
Whoop! Waugh! Ugh! Some
body pint him out to me and then
tie my hands and legs while bite
his ears off,
Our alleged terror turned pale
and looked nervous, and the Cedar
Flats man pranced around, cracked
his heels together and crowed.
"Cock-a-doodle-doo! Whoop!-
Pint him out! Let him stand be-
fore me! Whoop! Tie me all up
in knots, head me up in that bar'l,
and then I'll kick him or go over
the cliff! Great snakes but won't
somebody show me the fellow who
-!
pointed to our terror, and the
Cedar Flats man uttered a scream
and rushed for him. The chap who
had only killed 'leven men just fell
right down in a heap, and it was
five minutes before we could bring
him to. He was whittier than -four
and as limpsy as a rag, and it was
all of half an hour before he could
walk away.
"How do you account for it?" !
asked as he was ready to go.
81 must have gone into the wrong
business" he gloomily replied.
"How do you mean?"
IL ought to have been preacherr
