THE New York World says that
Holman "has labored increasingly y
among the Democratic members to
persuade them of what would be the
result of yielding too much to local
opportunities for appropriations" But
the World does not tell how Holman
labored personally before the Rivers
and Harbors Committee to induce
them to include in their bill an appro.
priation of $4,000 for an embank
ment along the Miami River in Hol.

is intended to prevent the obstruction

The hanging of Deeming Monday
morning of this week in Australia,
which owing TO our westward position
the dailies were able to print in the
same mornings papers, is the last
scene in the life of one Of the most
horrible monsters the civilized world
has seen in these end of the century
days. Deeming was "Jack.the.

dren by the first wife, and were re.
markable from the fact that he ce.
mented the bodies of his victims under
the floor Of the houses where they
were cut down. The hideous nature
of his methods has caused Deeming
to be an object of great interest to
the scientific world. Those who have
studied the case believe Deemiug to
belong to the criminal type, but it i;
not all clear that he was morally ire.
spOnsible. The Australian authori.
ties pronounced Deeming sane and the
world is doubtless we'll rid of wretch
who when arrested was waiting for his
next victim.

IT will be a qualification to all good
Republicans of the State to learn that
Frank Willing Leach, whose splendid
work heretofore has told in the rolling

placed at the head Of the list of Sec.
retaries of the State Central Commit.

of Northampton county, has been
made Chairman. The choice of Mr..
Leech was by unanimous wish of the
State candidates, who, under the new
rules have the selection, ard certainly
they have made no mistake, but on
the contrary have been very wise in
their selection. Leach is a terror to
the Democrats, who alone disapprovs
the selection.

for and against the denomination OF
President Harrison are particularly

there are seven hundred odd delegates

The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1892-05-25

The latest story from political
headquarters, wherever that is, is to
the effect that President Harrison's
friends have purchased the Albany
EUening Journal, anti.Harrison organ,
and will place at its head Charles
Emory Smith, of the Philadelphia
Press. This is all very nice, but
President Harrison doesn't need or.
gans to pipe his praises. His record
as an American citizen not afraid to
do his duty chants louder than dozen
organs. And the people know 1t, too.

The great Republican National
Convention will meet in Minneapolis
one week from next Tuesday, June
7th. Who will be the Presidential
nominee is still a mooted question.
The ti.Harrison people have for
weeks and months been casting about
for q candidate strong enough TO
defeat his re- nomination, but thus far
have been unsuccessful, and il looks
just now that the last resort will be
Blaine, Notwithstanding his refusal to
run. The late reports say be has for
the last time denied that he will allow
his name to be used, and the oppnsi.
tion to Harrison has constr led this as
meaning that be will no longer resist
the overwhelming desire to place him
in nomination. The way it looks now
il will either be Blaine or Harrison,
and If the former does not again alb.
solutely refuse his nomination will be
made with greatest enthusiasm. No
other man eau defeat the Presidents
denomination, and if Blaine will
accept the Harrison people will not
growl or even consider il defeat.

UNCLE HOLMAN saved the United
States Government 5000 on Monday.
There was resolution brought in to
pay the funeral expenses of man
who had been in the employ of the
folding.roo of the House for twenty.
five years, and to pay his widow six
months extra salary. This has been
the custom Of the House from time
immemorial. Holman opposed the
bill. 1t was touching to see the zeal
and activity displayed by the good old
man in snatchiug that 5000 from the
greedy hands of the grasping widow.
He succeeded, and the bill was killed.

HERE is a frank admission. A
London exchange says: zone of the
greatest arguments against the theory
that the consumer pays the import
duty lie TO be found in the fact that
when a foreign nation increases the
Tariff on a British product, the estab.
lishment charges as we'll as the wages
on this side of the water are lowered,
in order to give the manufacturer OF
merchant a chance TO deal successfully
with the change. If the consumer
paid the duty there would be little
cause for our exporter to grumble
But our manufacturers and work
people do make sacrifices to meet the
extra duty, and We accordingly hear

is as follows:
The cattle army that left here a
few days ago is one of the heaviest
armed expeditions that ever passed
into the the Big Horn basin. They
have a small cannon with them,
and have announced their intention
Of carrying on a war Of exte1 nina
ton against the men they term
rustlers, who, however, claim to be
peaceful ranchmen, whom the cat
tie kings have branded as thieves,
and are trying to run them out OF
the country. An army Of men are
reported between Lost Cabin and
Lander, headed fJr the basin, and
if it is true an army went by way
Of the B. & NJ, via Gillette, into
the basin, it must tie that they are
going to unite at the present camp
OF the cattle army. The greatest
fears Of the friends of the rustlers
are that the cattlenen from Mon
tana will come down through the
basin from Billings, and that the
TWO armies viii get the rustlers te-
tween them and exterminate them.
Tie excitement is intense and bets
are offered two to o"e that an en-
gagement takes place before Satur-
day night. No one doubts hut that
If the cattlcmen, now armed and in
the field unite, they will win; but
that if it is singlehanded betwe II
the Casper cattle army and the
rustlers, the rustlers will hold then,
level. Men here assert that the
rustlers are organized, and it was
understood that il case Of trouble
they would all meet at certain
place. by this time they probably
are all together and are waiting for
the army, or are marching towards
