False Couv,otIun aiIghtcd His Life.

Edward Murphy, who died at Jack
son, Mich, recently, aged eighty years,
after being struck by an engine, had q
remarkable experience. Thirty years
ago he was tried and convicted of muir
der in the first degree and sent TO prison
for life. Seven years were spent in soli-
tary confinement until life solitary was
abolished. then for fourteen years he
labored in the wagon shop. At the end
of twenty-five years dying man con-
fessed to the murder and Murphy was
released. That was seven years ago.
The state pensioned him at $500 a year
by special act of the Legislature. He
was broken down and his death resulted
from his inability to hear the whistle of
the train. His only relative is brother
in Liverpool, England. When he was
convicted he was prosperous drover.-

ZEAL ACCORDING TO KNOWLEDGE.

1t looks queer to see a clergyman
| brought before grand jury to substan-
tiate charges made by him in his pulpit
against the character of public officials.
That seems to be the fate of Rev. Mr..
Parkhurst of New York, however, and
he Will have to prove that the city
officials of New York are wine-sOaked,
libidinous lot or submit that he was mis-
taken. The episode is likely to impress
the lesson of moderation in the pulpit.
1t is a lamentable fact, but fact none
the less, that ministers sometimes per-
NIT their zeal to get the better Of their
judgment. 1t is the province, not only,
but the duty of ministers to denounce
wickedness in high places as well as low,
but the good effect Of exposing sin and
wrong doing may be nullified if not
caused to react by personating the sup
posed offender. The public conscience
is sensitive to impressions of injury the
community sustains by the evil doing of
those who represent 1t i'll official capac-
ity, when directed to the wrong doing
from proper motives and through proper
channels-and the pulpit is one of such
channels-but attacks made upon public
officials in way that may be construed
as something of reflection upon the
community that places the individual in
position, as often arouses sympathy for
the accused as it does a feeling Of con-
domination. Many criminal has been
made hero and escaped deserved pun
ishment by ill-advised and hasty denun-
citation and personating.

The Indian Problem.
From the Kansas City JournaL

From the Kansas CITY Journals
The Indian problem will hardly be
solved or simplified by any panacea.
An entirely different method of pro-
cedure must be adopted. So long as the
Indian is given to understand that he
can live without work, so long as he is
provided with food and clothing by the
government and encouraged in his
laziness, he will be problem" When
he is treated as white man is treated
by this government, when he is told
that he must earn his breed or go with
out, then the agency problem and the
corruption attending it, will be mere
matters of history.

The Logic of Reciprocity.

Washington Cor. to X. c. Journal
John w. Foster, who has been one Of
the negotiators of the reciprocity treaties
thus far, made speech at the annual
dinner of the Board of Trade of New
York, last night. in which he made the
point that reciprocity is inseparably
united to protection, and that it is i'm
possible under free trade. This is Just
as true as logic and common sense can
make it. 1t is only when a country has
valuable favOrs to bestow that it can ask
valuable favors in return.

Since the nation in question is so clearly
the happiest and most prosperous coun-
try in the world that natives of other
countries are flocking to it at the rate of
half million year, it is evident that
third party in this melancholy frame of
mind cannot exert a great influence
upon the coming presidential election.
But it is equally evident that, even if we
grant that the third party is mixture
of folly and knavery, it is very unjust to
attribute to knaverv any great share in
its COmposition.
