Republican uncasiness About the PresI-

| Expressions drawn from representa-.
tive republicans in connection with
the selection OF u location for their ma
tional convention show in very striking
way that the election of Mckinley in
Ohio did not increase his popularity in

to the wcll-known fact that the posi-
bility OF having To rcnominate Harri-

easiness. Members of the republican
| national committee, as well as Of the

are virtually unanimous, and their ex-
| preston, in almost every instance,
| takes the stercotypcd form: "Blaine,
II he'll take it, or "Blainc, IL he'll say
| the word"
II there has been any change since
the November election, IL has been in
the direction Of increased rcpugnance
To either Harrison or Mckinley, and,
as an escape from both of them, re-
publicans. those who are politicians as
we'll as those who are not, seem more
than ever anxious for Blaine. There
is no booming in this, and no en-
thusiasm about it, tits rather negative
than positive. II is the talk of men
who dislike Harrison and have no love
for Mckinley, who believe there would
bc small chance of clccting either of
them, and who are very much afraid
that one of them will be nominated I'M
less Blaine can toe induced TO take it,"
Partly through design, but more as
n result Of circumstances, Mr. Blaine
has established himself in this position,
where "a single word from him will re-
tire Harrison from politics. change the
course of the republican party. avoid
the blockhcad policy of McKinlcyism

IS THERE A REMEDY

With the exception of sending the
armed Pinkerton men to Homestead, the
Carnegie managers have acted within the
law. They have right to employ and
discharge whom they please
Those propositions cannot be disputed
or questioned, no matter how great the
injustice and injury to the victims of the
harsh, arbitrary and unutterably selfish
rules Of a man like Frick 1t is one Of
the miserable fallacies of the tariff law,
that II protects the worlSingman. This
object lesson In one Of the longest and
best protected industries, shows that the
workingman has absolutely no rights
which the master is bound to respect
The tariff law has nothing to do with
wages II seeks to guarantee close
market and a higher price for the cap
italists who have certain favored articles
to sell; it gives no guarantee, whichever
to the man who has labor only, to sell.
The worlSingman, skilled or unskilled,
has to sell his labor in full market,
subject to the very competition, that
Of pauper labor, against which the
master capitalist is 10 carefully pro
/ tected.
The workingman has found to his sor-
row in many instances that his vote to
put tax upon millions Of unwilling
people in order that he and favorite
manufacturer might share greater profits
and higher wages is a delusion and q
snare. The greater profits are certain
the law provides for them. But ths
higher wages It leaves entirely TO tn,
sweet will Of the employer, who imm ed
lately gets behind the fixed law of tn,
land and employs labor in an open mar
ket, at free trade prices, in competition
with the pauper labor of Europe Mean
while he consoles the fool workingmai
with the pleasing fiction that he is get
ting higher wages than the free trad
Englishman. The Englishman's wage
will buy as many, oft.times more, of tn
comforts and luxuries Of life than tn

A young man from the country, who Is vis-
iting friends in this city, is reported as having
met with an unusual accident last Wednes-
day. IL appears that the young folks had
arranged for picnic in the afternoon in
Eighth Street Park, and among other refresh
ments was provided small can of delicious
ice cream. Now, the country cousin from

capacious mouth, II so tickled his palate that
with a convulsive effort he swallowed not
only the cream, but his tongue also. A ply
sician was hastily summoned, and fnaliy
succeeded in recovering the tongue, and, az
last accounts he was doing as well as could
be expected. The cream was manufactured
by w A. Coke OF Third and VanBuren
streets. The young man says that hereafter
he prefers some other make as he does not
care to risk his life by trying to eat refresh
ments so rich.

will simply be the engineer who has charge

day. His personality will change per-
haps from morning to evening and from
week to week, but while on duty, who

THE CUSTER HOUSE.

The Custer cemetery lot is located on a
rise of ground overlooking the city, and
is surrounded by beautiful trees. The
monument is a simple shaft Of white mar
BILE five or six feet high. On either side Of
the monument is a simple headstone, one
marking the last resting place of the aged
mother and the other that of Boston, the
brother of General Custer Around the
lot is an iron fence. Exactly one-half of
this fence-the Custer half-is neatly
painted black, and in that half the grass is
trimmed and flowers are growing. The
other half of the lot is owned by another
branch of the family, and that half of the
fence is rusty and dilapidated. Clusters

dians and were conveyed to West Point for
burial
The house that General Custer lived in
when at home is still owned by his widow
and is located near the business portion Of
the city. 1t is comfortable looking, old
fashioned house, with a wide porch extend
ing around three sides of the front. The
porch is covered with woodbine and other
vines, and around the house are trees Of
magnificent growth, completely shading it
in summer The house, it is understood,
is forisale, but Monroe is an ancient town,
