JUSTICE MUST BE DONE.

The republican press is not saying much about.th decision of the. supreme court in the quo warranto cases. The fact that the judges are divided ac- cordlng to their politics only adds to the complication, and the great question will not be settled until it reaches tht highest tribunal in the land-the voice of the people expressed by their votes in November. AS the terms of the offices iii question are nearly ended, the matter in 'question is sof little conse- quence safe in so far as it is an outrage on popular rights, which has been made possible by an abused constitutional pro- vision, which makes it necessary fer a democratic, candidate for state office in Connecticut to receive majority of the votes cast, while minority elects a republican.
 Judge Morris appeals to the people to right the great wrong which has been done. The issue made is distinct and just. The people can accomplish the desired change by an emphatic ex- pression at the polls, although the democrats are largely disfranchised in respect of representation in the legisla- ture. The issue is right against wrong, justice against injustice, liberty against privilege. The.s .sdemocrats are pledged to correction, the republicans to per petuation, of existing evils. There must be no mistakes this tune. Con- necticut must be carried by the democracy for both state and national tickets.

Why Cleveland Is Popular.

Among the last editorial utterances of the late George William Curtis was the following tribute to Grover Cleveland:
 No man after his retirement from the presidency ever rose more steadily in public esteem and popularity. His course has been simple and dignifed. Without presumption, as a private citi- zen his conduct has been modest and quiet, and as a speaker upon public oc- casions, even when of a party char acter, his tone has been that of patriot rather than 8 partisan, and he has justly felt that, although identified with a party, the propriety of his position de- manded of him something more than mere partisanship.
 He has certain rugged honesty and plainness of character and speech which give him popularity not shared by any other public man. The Republican pa- pers ridicule his friends as idolaters. But the feeling at which they sheer is produced by a frank integrity which justifes and invites entire confidence He seems to us to enter upon the cam paign with greater personal popularity and with much wider public knowl- edge and approval of the issues that he represents than ever before.

CRESP0 WINS THE DAY
Defeats the Venezuelan Gov.
 ernment Forces.
BLOODY BATTLE AT LOS TEoUEs

Six Hundred KiIled--OsIears Made Prison ers--The Victorious General Intends En-
 tering Caracas sImmediately--La Guayra
 still in the Governments Possession.
 LA GUAYRA, Venezuela, Oot 6. = A desperate battle has j ust taken place at Los Teques, a small town on the railroad line to Valencia, at distance about equal between that place and Caracas.
 Six hundred are killed and many high government officials captured. Crespo has struck another decisive blow, which, following upon his previous successes since the revolution began in last March, means victory for the Crespistas.
 To-day, Caracas is more than ever ex- cited. Crespo has announced his deter imitation to enter the capital immediately.
 NEW YORK, Oct. 6.-The steamship Venezuela, just arrived from La Guayra, brings the latest news from the Venezue- Ian revolution. As affairs stand now the long struggle is nearing an end and will result in the overthrow of the govern ment, which has made such a persistent fight
 According to the reports, Gen. Colino, with force of 6,000 men, joined Gen. Crespo, the revolutionist leader, at Val encia, on Sunday, Sept. %. This, the report says, made Crespos force number 16, 900 men. On Monday, Sept. 25, Gen. Crespo started his forces for Caracas. A portion of his advance guard arrived at La Victoria on Sept. 29. Crespo is ad- vancing his forces upon Caracas by differ ent routes. They all expect to meet at Caracas
 Tine march from Valencia would occupy from 12 to 15 days, provided there is nc interruption. At Les Peques the revo- lutionsts will fight their decisive battle. Las Peques is the best fortified place that the government holds, and Gen. Polido if there with 6, 900 soldiers.
 It will be necessary for Crespo to talk e this point before he can enter Caracas. Once he is in possession of Les Peques his entrance into Caracas will be an easy matter.
 On Sep. 2S there was battle between revolutionists and government troops at place called Vacuta, which is just out side of La Guayra, and the revolutionists were defeated. Each side had about 5000 men. The revolutonist troops were ap- preaching the town of La Guayra when | the government troops opened fire upon them from the mountain side, and from | the advantage of, their position succeeded | in putting the revolutionists to flight. All those who can are leaving Caracas | and ill order to do so must obtain the per mission of the highest officials in power

THE MAFlA IN CHICAGO.
Believed That NIartino Was One of the
 Society's Victims.

Society's Victims.
 CHICAGO, Oct. 6.-Lieut. Wheeler of the Chicago police, who has been work ing diligently for several days on the case of Elgero Martino, the Italian who was killed Sunday night in a west side saloon, believes that Martino was victim of the dreaded Mafia, and says that he has good reason to think that branch of the so- ciety which caused so much trouble in New Orleans a little over a year ago ex- ists in this city.
 This belief is based upon tho actions Of the seven Italians who were arrested after the shooting and the positive testimony of three Italians that a branch of the society is established here. The seven men were present in the saloon when the shooting occurred, yet each sworc that he did not know who fired the fatal shot.
 Lateri was gathered from them that they feared the consequences if they told anything. The wife of the murdered man told Lieut.. Wheeler that her husband was the victim of the Mafia. A well-to-do Italian barber also notified him of the ex istence of the society, and an Italian grocer swore that he knew of it's exist ence here.

MRS. HARRISON A LITTLE BETTER.
The Presidents Visit to New York Will Be
 Dependent on Her Condition.

Dependent on Her Condition.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-Mrs. Harrison passed more comfortable night, and this morning was feeling easier.
 She remains propped up in bed by pill lows and has experienced the usual fluc- tuations attending her disease, feeling better or worse at times. The improve ment or depression depends largely upon the state of the weather.
 She continues very weak. but her con- dition is not considered critical.
 Mr. Halford said this morning that the published accounts that the President would not attend either the Columbian exercises in New York or the exercises in Chicago incident to the formal opening of the Worlds Fair, were unauthorized and in a measure misleading.
 The Presidents movements day by day were dependent on the condition of Mrs. Harrison. If when the time arrives he feels that he can leave Mrs. Harrison, he will attend both celebrations; otherwise he will attend neither.
 It is not matter that he can decide in advance.

Hard NutS.

The Democratic papers throughout the state are giving the tariff tooters some very hard nuts to crack. The Os- sian Bee furnishes the following: ''It is not unusual to hear it asserted that pro- lection means higher prices to the farm CT, to the mechanic and to the manufac- turer. In the same breath it is asserted that the cost of living is not increased
 How can this be? If protection increases the price of the farmers products and of the manufacturers products, why is it that the cost of living is not increased? If protection causes wheat, potatoes, butter and eggs to bring better prices, does it not cost more for the laboring man to live? Possibly the high tariff prophets assume that the cost of living is not increased because he and his fam fly eat less when prices advance. This may be the explanation, but it is not a satisfactory one. "-Des Moines Leader

THE TROUBLE IN IRELAND.

The landlords of Ireland are again at their inhuman work. It was part of the policy of the late government to insist that the condition of Ireland had never been better or more satisfactory, and that there was marked absence of con- tests between landlord and tenants. In order to maintain this pleasing condi- tion the government made appeals to those of the Irish landlords whom it could influence not to do anything cal culated to disturb the public peace, pointing out that if they did so it would be used as an argument by the home rulers and English liberals, that would add to the political strength of the latter and that this might lead to the success of the home rule cause by means of which the condition of the Irish land lord might be permanently injured. The line of argument adopted by MT Balfour and others in their consultations with the Irish landlords was that it was bet ter to bear the ills resulting from trouble in collecting rents than have to face the question of a political separation be- tween England and Ireland. But now that the conservative government has fallen, the Irish landlords are not re- strained by party considerations in in sisting upon their rent demands. They do not care how much trouble they give Mir Morley and the liberal government hence there is a sudden rise in the mum
 Der of evictions, and it is becoming 6 serious question in what way the gov ernment is to act in maintaining the Heace.

Is There Any Limit to Hu-
 man Endurance?
A Revelation Which Will As.
 tonish Most People.
And Yet It Is In Reality of Every Day
 Occurrence.

And Yet It Is In Reality of Every Day
 Occurrence.
 The following communication is from one of our correspondents, Mrs Carrie E. Martin, lady we'll known and highly respected and who occupies position of the highest social distinction in West Leyden, Mass. Her experience is of such a nature and it's importance to many is so great and far-reaching, that we give it to our readers in. her own words:
 "Last summer l was all run down had chills, no appetite, very little sleep nights and none days, faint spells, trem- bling feelings and was SO weak I could hardly walk around the room. I con tinued to run down in health and strength until I feared utter nervous prostration with its untold miseries.
 ''I sent for our town physician and he came good many times. l soon had to give up work entirely, still his medicines did me no good. I tried to ride out one morning, but went only few rods and had to come home. My husband then went to church, leaving me with the hired help and my children. Such ter rible day as I spent, tongue cannot de- scribe. I could scarcely get from the couch to the chair!
 "When my husband came in from church told him was worse and that I would die if did, not get help soon; that would not take any more of the doctors medicine but try Dr Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, if he thought best.
 "He advised me to try it and went inn medlately and got bottle, which I be- gan to take; up to this time we knew nothing of it's value except as we had 1 seen it advertised.

coNeRATuLATINa THE COUNTRY.

The Vermont and Maine Elections Give
 Democrats Encouragement. The Democratic national committee has issued the following address:
 HEADQUARTERS DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE, 139 FIFTH AVENUE,
 NEW YORK, Sept. 14, 1892. ] To the People of the United States:
 The Democratic national committee con- graduates the country on the result of the re- cent state elections in Maine. Vermont and Arkansas.
 In Arkansas the combined opposition, after 50 many extravagant claims, fell short by over 80OOO of the votes of the Democracy alone. This has brought dismay to the combination in the south and to its manipulators in the north.
 In Maine and Vermont the contest was con- ducted distinctly on national issues.
 The Republican managers appealed for votes in those states on the ground that "the size of the pluralities would exert a great moral influ- ence on the campaign in other states" and that the poll would be practically our vote for president" Similar appeals summoned to their aid all the potent resources of their national organization, with its eXhaustless treasury and its splendid equipment of orators of national fame.
 With every favoring force at their command, except public opinion, with no organization opposed save those made up within the states by minority party which has been out of power for a generation, and which was un- aided from without, the campaign of our ad- versaries for a triumphant test vote in these states, so carefully planned and so thoroughly and forcefully executed, has ended in a con spicuous disaster.
 Our friends everywhere are entitled to take fresh courage from these results.
 They mean that the strong tendency of pub lie sentiment is with the Democracy, and that the people of the country are prepared to en- force rather than reverse the verdict which they rendered in 1890.

"In the course of two days our family physician came in and saying that he found me about the same finally told me that he had concluded to ask for counsel. He informed me that I might choose any doctor preferred to meet him in consultation.
 "I said to him. then you consider me pretty badly off?
 "He answered, I certainly do and shall not prescribe for you again until | some other doctor sees you, as I do not know what to give you next
 "l then said to him, perhaps you will be offended, but I have not taken any of your medicine for two days, but am talk ing Dr Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy
 "He answered, T am not offended; if | it will help you 1 shall be very glad You may continue it's use a week and if no better, then we will have counsel But at the end of the week I was | better. In two weeks was good deal | better, no chills, no faint feelings, could | eat some and could sleep quite well. In | three weeks 1 was around and about the house. In four weeks my hired glrl left me and l went to doing my housework | alone, and have since continued to do SO with seven in the family.
 "Since that time our family physician | hebo ttuNlocu us use IEOLu ClIl6 to tune, saying that it would keep up my strength better. He has advised others to take it, telling them of the good it did me, and to-day I have reason, yes, great reason, to thank God for my re- covery, and through the use of Dr Greene's Nurvura blood and nerve remedy. am only too glad to testify to its merits. God bless Dr Greene and his wonderful medicine"
 This remarkable remedy is purely vegetable and harmless, and can be pro- cured at any drug, store for S1 per bottle. Like the above able and excellent phy- sician, all doctors of high standing recommend the sick to use it, for it cures. Doctors prescribe and recom- mend it because it is not patent medi- cine but a physicians prescription, the discovery of the eminent specialist, Dr Greene of 35 w. 14th street, New York, who is so wonderfully successful in cur ing all forms of nervous and chronic dis eases, and who can be consulted free, personally or by letter.-EDIToR.

Harrison as Civil Service Reformer.


 At recent meeting of the Massa- chusetts Reform club Hon. William Dudley Foulke, of Indianapolis, who supported Harrison four years ago, ex- posed the bad record of Harrison in the matter of civil service reform. MT. Foulke said that not single case of alleged violation of the reform law had ever been pushed by the government to 8 successful conclusion. In the depart ments at Washington blackmailing Is going on under the notorious Hubbell, though not to the same extent. The pension office under MT. Raum was shown to be managed in outrageous vio- lation of civil service reform principles.
 MT. Foulke scored Harrison severely for the worst violations of the reform spirit in packing the Minneapolis con, vention with officeholders to secure his own renomination, a proceeding which destroys the foundation of our liberties and Mexicanizes our government. liar rison has done here what Balmaceda did in Chili, and for which the people there took up arms. Wanamakers own ap- pointment as postmaster general was drawn in the darkest colors as the sale of an exalted office in return for services in raising campaign funds. MT. Foulke related instances of high places given in return for heavy contributions to the Republican campaign funds. He asked why it would not be better to have these offices put up openly at auction, as the Roman emperorship was put up at auc- tion by the Pretorian guard, than to have the real evil exist as it does in secret.
