The Gowdeysvills Whipping.

such feature was given to T. We think

The Meeting next Thursday.

We are truly glad that the Democratic
Executive Committee last Monday decided
to hold the County campaign meeting at the
usual place, in the School House Grove, at
the County Seat. 1t will be more convenient
for the speakers, and fully as convenient rs
at any other point for the people throughout
the County.
While we do not think there was actual
necessity for the appointment of extra mar
shals for that day, it may prove commend
able precaution.
There will be no "howling down" in
Union. Our people are too sensible, TOO
manly and too truly democratic to offer
insults to gentlemen who come by appoint
ment to address them on questions Of
public interest, while it is very evident,
from the conduct at the last three meetings,
that the order has been passed call along
the liue," to have no more "howliug down."
as it has proved disastrous TO the party that
inaugurated it.
So, let us have peace, and listen patiently
and decsntly to all the speakers.

Gea. One of the commonest errors that
men fall into is in estimating the amount o,
taxes an individual pays by the return he
makes to the Auditor of his property for
taxation. Particularly does this error occur
in the case of wage earners, or those EN-.
ployed under stated salaries We know OF
two or three individuals who return not
over 5000 and poll tax, but who really
pay taxes on from 81 500 to $4,000. They
own shares in Building and Loan Associa
tions, stock in Banks or Factories.
All those institutions return and pay the
individual taxes Of their stockholders in
bulk, under the corporate name Of the in.
stitution, consequently the names .of the
stockholders do not appear on the tax books
as owners of that character of property, but
nevertheless they do pay taxes on it.
We are led to make this statement by a
request from an esteemed friend, who we
know would not be unjust to any man, to
republish an exhibit of the taxes paid by a
prominent gentleman in this State, taken
from the tax returns and published in a
daily paper not long ago The gentleman
referred to owned come Bank stock and also
held shares in at least one Building and
Loan Association, upon which he paid
monthly installments from his monthly
wages, Both of those institutions returned d
his shares TO The Auditor. and paid his
taxes on them under each corporation head.
II is well know that Bank Factory and Build
ng and Loan stock can be turned into cash at
any moment, so that when the owner wish es
to invest his earnings 10 other enterprises IL is
essy for him to get cash for his stock for
that purpose, which was done in the special
case referred to.
We feel no interest in oonvicting or de.
Tending the gentleman, but we do feel an
interest in keeping our friend out of an un.
pleasant position, and because it would be
unjust in us, for we happen to know that the
whole facts in the case are different 10 the
representation made in the published ARTICLE.

CHICAGO, March 81. THE people of
the United States may countenance the
active, self-asserting, scheming politic-
ians to capture the small offices, but
they draw the line on the presidency,

said Governor George w. Peck, of
Wisconsin, in an interview. ''They
will stand good deal, but they won't
to use q homely expression -let polite
i4ns monkey with the presidency. 1t is
altogether too exalted an Office to be the
prey of schemers. The people win soon

man he would have been sought for.
No man, i'm my opinion, can be elected

Ano.h.r New york Blizzard.

AUBURN, n. Y, March 2l.-A fierce
blizzard struck this city during the
night which bids fair to rival the great
storm of last week. Snow began to fall
at s =. m. accompanied by a northwest
gale, which is piling the snow into huge
drifts and filing the railroad cuts which
have only recently been cleared, almost
Immediately blockading all the rail-
roads. Only one train arrived In this
city during the night. Country roads
have been only partially opened since
the last stcrm. The storm Is still rag
ing and increasing in violence hourly.
Over foot of snow has fallen since the
storm began, with the mercury IL
above zero.

lives. The exact cause of the explosion
is not known. 1t is thought, however,
that a lieutenant of the Italian army
who lodged in the house where the cal
amity occurred, was making some ex-
periments with nitro-glycerine and that
an explosion resulted. The house was
blown to pieces and ten inmates killed.

Lutheran Factions at Chicago Hold q
Novel Kind OF Santifleatien
Meeting.
A Regular Enock-Down and Drag Out
Fight in One OF Their
Churches.
The Dubbsites Said to Have Gained o
Decided Victory Over the
Esherites.

CHICAGO, March 2l.-Sledge hammers
crushed against the windows Of the
Noble Street Evangelical Lutheran
church and battered down the big two
inch planks with which the windows
had been barricaded on the inside. Then
there was free fight, in which broken
windows, doors, fists and the police
were mixed up. The whole thing was
only another move in the long continued
war between the Dubbs and the Esher
factions in the church, but 1t was
lively one, and kept those interested on
the jump for three hours.
1t was noble victory for the Dubbs-
ties. When the bishop disagreed and
carried their differences into the courts
the congregation that worships under
I William Schweiker's pastoral admins
tration on Noble and Huron streets,
immediately took sides. Eighty Esher-
ties seeded, and last November OBJ
tanned temporary injunction, which
was immediately dissolved. They then
entered suit before Judge Shepard, and
he rendered decree against the Dubbs-
ties, from which they appealed to
the appellate court, securing q
supersedeas and giving bond in
o. 900 for the safety of the property.
The Esherites tried to obtain possession
of the church Feb. Z, claiming that the
action taken did not postpone the imme-
diate action of Judge Shepard's decree,
which gave each faction right to use
the church on alternate evenings. FRI
day night each faction had prepared for
praise or sanctifcation meeting. The
Esherites took the upper part of the
church and the Dubbsites the lower.
But instead of prayer and praise each
side put m the time spying on the 9th
er's movements. The lower part had
been thoroughly and systematically bar
ricaded by the Dubbsites. Each win
dow was protected by heavy shutter
held in position by long planks spiked
to the barricades and the floors. When
the meeting was over the Esherites left
Conrad Schultz and Ernest Helber ur
stairs to retain possession of that part oi
the structure, and the Dubbsites left Q
delegation in the basement. The mer
up stairs, watching their chance, caught
all of their opponents in the basement
and in moment nailed up the dool
which led into the vestibule of th'
church. For moment they were tri

Dubbs soon kicked a pannel out Of th'
door and then tore the whole doo

DuN'S TRADE REVIEW.
Business of the Past week Retarded

Business of the Past Week Retarded
by BAD Weather.
NEW YORK, March 2i.-R. G. Dun
& Co.'S. Weekly Review of Trade says:
Storms, bad weather and bad roads
have much retarded trade during the past
week, but, nevertheless, reports indicate
ON the whole an improvement in the dis
tribution of goods and a fairly sustained
demand, in some branches increasing, for
manufactured products. There Is no
trouble anywhere about money. Reports
from interior cities are generally more en-
couraging< Pittsburg reports poor de
mand for manufactured iron, but good
trade in glass Al Chicago, excellent
trade il seen in dry goods ard shoes
though the clothing trade falls behind on
account of weather, but for the week
exceeds that of last year. At st. Paul and
Minneapolis.
Jobbing Trade Was Never So Active
for the season. though wheat receipts are
reduced by the storm. At Kansas City
trade is fairly satisfactory and cattle re-
ceipts heavy at lower prices Trade Mt
Montgomery is fair; at Savannah good
| with bright prospects, and at New Or
| leans slightly improved, sugar being
! strong though cotton declines with heavy
receipts. Speculation in breadstuffs has
been depressed by the official report OF

corn Ia cents aud oats 2 cents. In pori
