EDITOR GREAT WEST:
Any proposition to unite with the
democrats for the. only purpose to
put an end to republican rule, sounds
pretty well, but would be a bad thing
as far as the leading representatives
Of the peoples party are concerned
It is more than probably that, al
least in this state, the peoples party
will succeed; but even if itshould not
and, in fact, in every case, any
fusion, except as to minor officers
would make our always growing
party appear smaller than it really
is. It is not a party though. it is thu

RACE WAR IN PADUcAH.
Inc Hanging of Negro the Cause of a
Battle on the Streets,

CINCINNATI, O., July 12.-The Com
mercial- Gazette, Paducah, KY, special
says: Shortly after 8 o'clock last even
ing, while the city council was in session
the chief of police announced that a re-
port had just reached him that 200 or 800
negroes, armed with Winchester rifles
had congregated in the vicinity of the
Jail prepared for an attack. Armed men
at once marched to the jail but, on the
mayors appeal, both sides refrained from
shooting and began to disperse.
At exactly II o'clock, band of rs ne
groes suddenly appeared on Sixth street
and opened fire upon the men collected
at the Jail. AT the first fire, Elmer Ed
wards, young man about 20 wears of
age, fell, being shot in the abdomen. He
was member of the militia company.
The lire was returned by the militia and
the armed citizens, and the negroes beat
a precipitous retreat.
The underlying cause of the uprisino
is the hanging of Charles Hill, the negro
who made an assault upon Lydia Starr
some weeks ago. The negroes have
been secretly obtaining arms for some
time, and trouble has been anticipated.
The immediate cause of the outbreak. as
stated by negro last night, however. is
the arrest of a coloIed man named
Thomas Burgess, now in jail.

REGULARS TAKE THE FIELD.
They Will Restore Order Among the Occur
d'Alene Mines.

BOISE CITY, Idaho, July 12.-The fol-
lowing message was sent by Governor
Wiley to President Harrison last night:
''This morning riot and bloodshed by
the miners in the Occur d'Alene district
commenced. One mill was blown up by
dynamite and many men were killed and
injured. Inspector General Curtis, Ida
no National Guard, informs me that 400
or 500 armed men constitute the mob.
The Legislature is not in session and
cannot be promptly convened. The civil
authorities of the county and state are
wholly inadequate to maintain peace.
The Immediately available military
force of the Idaho National Guard num-
bers only 1856 men, which is, in my opin-
ion, far too few to successfully cope with
the mob, though l will order it at once

Cyrus W. Field was born in Stock
bridge, Mass, in 1919, received his edu-
cation in his native village and at the age
OF 10 went to New York, where his broth
er, David Dudley, secured situation for
him in the employ of Alexander T.
Stewart. When he attained his majority
he began the manufacture and sale of
paper on his own account and in the
course of dozen years was at the head
OF prosperous business.
The project of carrying a telegraph
line across the Atlantic Ocean was sue-
gested to him during conversation with
his brother Matthew, in which his aid was
solicited for the construction of a tele-
graph route across Newfoundland. The
matter was at once presented to Peter
cooper, Moses Taylor, Marshall O. Rob
erts and Chandler White, who agreed tie
contribut $40, 900 each and the enterprise
was at once organized under the lille Of
the New York, Newfoundland & London
Telegraph. Mr.. Field thenceforth deyot-
ed his time to the accomplishment of
this purpose. He visited ENGLAND. solic-
ed financial aid, and finally subscribed
in his own name for one fourth interest
IN the company.
Several unsuccessful efforts were made
to lay the cable, but finally communica-
ton was established in 1858. For a few
weeks messages were sent from one con-
tinent to the other and then the cable re-
fused to act. After the War of the Re-
bellion the public was interested again
IN the scheme and in 1865 the steamship
Great Eastern began the delivery of the
cable. At mid ocean, after 1900 miles
had been laid, the cable parted and the
vessel returned to England.
In 1866 another expedition started and
on July y telegraphic communication
was established between the two CONT
nents and has not since been inter
rupted.
Congress voted unanimously to pre-
sent Mr.. Field with gold medal and the
thanks OF the nation, while the prime
minister of England declared that onlv

other country prevented his receiving

mert.
He became interested in 1876 in the de-
velopment of the system of elevated rail
ways in New York city.
Some years before his death he oh
tanned concessions from the Sandwich
Islands for the laying of a cable between
San francisco and those islands. with a.
view toward ultimate extension across

. dark in complexion and hair, though
not excessively SO; tlay wear the beard,
which does not grow very thick; the
nose is prominent, the forehead high
and vertical, the head rather narrow,
the face generally somewhat deeply
modelled, with tendency to hollowness
of the cheek. The few men who still
keep to the national dress wear the bag
gy blue breeches, gathered in below the
knee, which the Greek islander affects,
rather than the white kilt, universal on
the mainland; but owing to the poverty
OF the country, costume has been gener-
ally abandoned and the rags of European
dress have taken its place.
The women wear broad scarlet stripe
round the skirt, which they take off for
two years as sign of mourning for a
relative. My guide observed sugges-
lively. that there were few of these red
stripes in Mama. The condition of the
people does not appear to have improved
much since Colonel Leake visited the
country in the early part of the century;
hunger and thirst ever at the door and
premature old age; the song of lamen-

According to London paper of recent

Paris modes" very close even in the
French capital itself. There is perfect
mania in France for tailor made dresses
for the country and seaside, while the
shirts SO much affected by Englishwom-

couple OF seasons ago English girls
wearing shirts and blouses were univer-
sally derided at fashionable French

ors-according to the toilets at the
Grand Prix, which generally give the
key to the late summer and autumn
styles. Nine. Carnot, who is always

CLEVELAND, O., July 12.-Governor
Mckinley was in town yesterday and
consented to talk on Homestead matters
and the probable effect on the election,
In regard to the charge of the Democrat
ic papers that the trouble at Homestead
was due to the protective tariff Governor
Mckinley said 81 see some of the
Democratic papers have been so charg-
ing while others take different view.
The tariff has nothing whatever to do
with the unfortunate occurrence at the
Carnegie works. Strikes occur in free
trade countries and in protection coun-
tries. They are confined to neither. 1t
must be regretted by every friend of his
country that there are those who would
make political capital out of the misfor-
