Col King to be Hanged.

JACKSON, TENN, June THE Supreme
Court of Tennessee met here IN adjourned
session his morning to render decisions
in a number of cases held under advise
ment, the most important case being The
celebrated II. Clay King murder case
Colonel King, author of Kings d gest
of Tennessee Laws" and a leading
member of the Memphis bar, on the 10th
of March, last year, met David II. Poston,
another prominent and popular lawyer,
on the street, in Memphis, and shot hin
dead.
The killing grew out of a sensational
case in chancery between the widow of
General Gideon ri low and Colonel King
in which Mr.. Poston was counsel for
Mrs. Pillow. Alter a holly contested
trial IN the Criminal Court at Memphis
in which plea of insanity aud also of self
defense we're argued, Colonel King was
sentenced to be hanged. A few weeks
ago the case was heard by the Supre me
Court, being most ably argued by both
defense aud prosecution, but owing to
illness of Chief Justice Turney, today
was set for delivering opinions IN that
and other cases.
Colonel King came into conrt this
morning accompanied by his wife .atd
sou-in-law. He did not look as well ss
when arraigned in court few weeks ago
the great anxiety aud long confinement
having told on his strong frame. The
opinion was read by Justice Turton.
The insanity Of the defendant was held
as not being proven and the theory oil
self-defense was act sustained. The
defendant was then remanded to the
sheriff of Shelby county to be kept In
confinement till August IL, when between
8 A. NJ. and P. NJ, he shall be hung by
the neck until dead.

Not a Question of Politics,

We regret to notice that some of our
Democratic contemporaries are treating
the Homestead incident in partisan fash
ION, for which there is no excuse. They
assume that because Mr.. Andrew Carnegie
and his associates at Homestead have
been engaged in al Industry protected by
the tariff, and because a dispute as to
wages has arisen between the employers
aud emplOyed protection is responsible
for the Homestead murders and mischiets.
In Congress, too, certain persons who sup
pose themselves to be Democrats have in
sisted upon this view.
II strikes were never heard Of in unpr0-
tected industries, it, in fact, the greatest
strikes in the country had not occurred in
unprotected industries like the steam rail
roads and the horse railroads, If free trade
England we're not a country of strikes,
and if all these facts were not known to
everybody with education enoIgh to read
large print, these assumptions might be
worth contradicting. As the case is,
they are so far fetched and wildly absurd
that we fear they will bring discredit
upon the Democrats in the national
campaign.
This is not a question of partisan poll
tics il is deeper than that, for il goes to
the very heart of social order and the
preservation of all that has been won for
civilization. The Democratic politicians
and tho newspapers that are trying to OBJ
scure the real question are doing all in
their power to injure the Democratic
party.
Shenandoah herald. [volume] (Woodstock, Va.) 1865-1974, 1892-07-15
Not a Party Question.
Washington Post. 9th


The Post takes occasion to repeat that
in our opinion the Homestead tragedy pos
sesses absolutely no political Significance,
and to prophesy THAI it will cut no sort
of figure in the campaign.
All the great employers Of the country
are not Republicans. nor are all the la
borers Democrats. Mr.. William l.. Scott,
so prominent leader under the Cleve-
land administration, was an enormously
rich man who employed thousands of
workmen and yet, when the issue came
to him few years ago, he was no more
willing than Mr.. Carnegie is now to hand
over his property or its management to
the employees in his pay. Men are very
much alike in this respect. They do not
accumulate large fortunes for the purpose
of bestowlng them on labor organizations,
or take the management of vast COM
mercial enterprises merely to obey the
orders of the working delegate. Demo
crat or Republican, individual pro-
prietors and corporations propose to hold
their own and run their business to suit
themselves. They will always resist an
invasion OF their proprietary privileges
and do what they can to make that
resistance tffectual.
Unfortunately the politicians ON both
sides are only too willing to play the
demagogue IN such an emergency as the
present. and to say, without the smallest
reference to truth or probability, what
ever they think will serve the party they
belong to. But the sensible, levtl-headed
masses of the American people are not
likely TO be deceived by such transparent
bumbug. and they will not believe that
the Homestead tragedy is due to Repub-
lican wickedness any more than they be-
lieyed a few years back that the turmoil
in Mr.. William l.. Scott's coal mines was
the fruit of Democratic turpitude. The
pending campaign bids fair to adjust
itself to the intelligence of the country
There is very little to Justify the ex-
pectation that demagogues aud charlatans
will be influential in it, and we are
devoutly thankful in consequence

Wages at Homestead.
From the n. 7. Pres.

Thare is only one term that describe IS
the persistent Democratic assertion that
the trouble at Homestead is due TO
"Staryation wages" 1t is falsehood, as
deliberate as 1T is malignant. The pro-
posed change in the payment of wages
at the Carnegie mills, while it would
undoubtedly slightly reduce the wages
of some employees, would maintain those
Of the great majority at their present
high standard. In some cases even an
actual advance in pay would be the
result. The leader of the strikers, Hugh
O'Donnell, admits that the proposed
changes would affect only about 32o men
ont of $500; and the fact that the
strikers do not consider the proposed
change in rates of payment serious one
is shown by their offer to accept the COM
pany's sliding scale of wages if the COM
pany will waive its demand for the trans
ference of the date for signing the wage
schedule from June 80 to December 81.
The table of wages paid in the Home
stead mills was recently printed by 1he
Press. It showed that in the slabbiDg
mill skilled heaters have been earning
s6.37 per day, and that under the new
arrangement proposed by the company
their minimum wages-wlth steel blllets
selling at S23 per tOn-would be S00' per
day: that under the projected plan the
lowest wages of screwman would be
s6.41 a day that the lowest wages OF
the workers known as heaters first
belpers would be $4.75 daily; and that
IN the rlste mills, where rollers had
earned 1891, screwmen S7.66, tablemen
s6.65 and first shearmen 1895 per day OF
twelve hours, the reduction in the wages
paid per 100 tons. even if the minimum
point in the sliding scale was to be the
constantly determining fact, would be
slight. To sperk of men earning from
"a. rs to 50 per day as STARVING laborers"
is the height of absurdity.
Into the question whether the changes
IN payment and date of wage schedule
called flor by the Homestead managers
vera justifable and wise The Press does
not propose to enter. What it desires to
do is to stamp as malicious falsehood the
reports circulated by inscriptions
Democratic organs in regard to the rate
of wages paid at Homestead. At their
lowest possible figure, with steel billets
selling at S23 per ton, the wages of
Homestead workmen would be more than
twice az high as those paid to similar
classes of labor in free trade Great
Britain.

What Did The Force" Bill Force 2
From the New York Recorder.

From the New York Recorder.
The Democratic platform trains it's
heaviest artillery on the Force" BILL
It declares that "the preservation of
Republican government in the United
States is dependent upon the defeat of
this policy of legalized force and fraud"
This is one of those assertions which
belongs under the headl N, Important,
| il true"
What was the Force" bill ?
1t has been extray agantly acclaimed
against by the Democratic orators and
organs from the Atlantic to the Pacific,
but we have not yet seen in single
Democratic speech or editorial truthful,
unexaggerated statement of its pro-
visions.
The Force" bills main provision was
this: That on the application of one
hundred voters in any Congressional dis
trict two supervisors, appointed by the
Federal courts. should be present at the
registration offices TO witness the regis
terIng of voters, and at the polling places
to witness the voting on election day.
Oue of these two supervisors was to be a
Democrat, the other a Republican In
case there arose a dispute as to the
election these two supervisors were to
testify before the Elections Committee
of Congress as to the proceedings they
witnessed at the polls or at the regis
tration offices, and produce such evidence
thereof rs they might have been able to
secure on the spot and preserve.
Simply that and nothing more OF
consequence Two men. one of each
party, wsre to stand quietly by the
ballot boxes and look on. What more
could they possibly accomplish beyond
seeing fair play or noting proofs of foul
play, if such should be attempted
There was not line 10 the Force"
bill which provided for the use of force
Of any kind, nor any clause in which,
by the utmost straining Of its meaning,
the use of Federal troops is ever limited at.
