about it. l have store book, loaned

Very well, sir. What did you get in
1857" "One dollar and seventy-five
cents a day." What pay do you get
now?" "Three dollars day." "Then
sE, according to your own figures, you
worked three days for a ton of coal in
81, and only worked two days for ton
of coal in '92. And yet you are voting
to restore the tariff for revenue only
that was in force in 81. Do you really
think the workingmen are better off to
work three days for a given article than
they are to work two days for the same
article?"

PUBLIC OPINION.

GROVER CLEVELAND AND PENSIONS.
Cleveland Leader.
If the nomination of General
Stevenson, the drillmaster of the Cop
perhead Knights of the Golden Circle.
was not enough to turn the ex Union
Soldiers of the North against the Dem
ocratic ticket, let them reflect that
Cleveland's strength in the South is due
to his unyielding opposition to the pres
ent pension system and his brutal
messages yetoing private pension bills.
The Durham, Y. c., Globe, Democratic
paper, in recent issue denounced the
pensioning of Union veterans as -the
greatest robbery ever perpetrated upon
the American people" 1t charged that
the men who are now drawing pensions
are victims of riotous and debauched
lives" and declared that they were not
suffering from infrmities due to military
service. The Globe said:
The fellows VINO receive pensions voluntarily
went into the war-they went, not for love OF
country, but for the money they were promised
and which they received fourteen dollars a
month.
Thus making its position clear this
Southern supporter of Cleveland said:
The pension fraud is the greatest of the age
and Cleveland struck the beggars in the face. He
should be given chance to hit'em again.
Every man who believes that it is
right to recompense the brave veterans
for what they suffered during four years
of terrible war that the Union might be
preserved should bear well in mind the
fact that the reelection of Cleveland
would give him another chance to slaI
'the beggars in the face" We do not
see how any friend of the Union or OF
the Unions defenders can vote fol

The session of Congress about to expire
has been one of the most extravagant
and worthless on record. Beyond the
passage of the necessary appropriation
bills, which were delayed far beyond the
usual time, it has done nothing worth
mentioning. In the way of broken
promises, extravagant appropriations
and general worthlessness it is a typical
Democratic Congress.

STREATOR GIVES BAIL.

Two Warrants Served on the Colonel at His
Home in Washington-J. NJ. Gufrey Will
Go on Colonel Hawkins Bond for .
Court Trial.
Lieutenant Colonel Streator has given
81, 900 bail to answer the two charges pre-
ferrcd against him by Private Iams at the
September term of court
Yesterday Constable McInerney, from
Alderman P. B. Reilly's Office, was sent to
Washington with two warrants to be served
upon Lieutenant Colonel Streator, one for
aggravated assault and battery and the
other for simple assault, both. preferred by
Private Iams. When the constable ar
rived at Washington he Immediately pro-
ceede6 to Colonel Streator's home, and was
told there that he was visiting in the coun-
try, and they did not know when he would
return. When Constable McInerney made
known his errand messenger was sent to
Colonel Streator, and shortly after the
Colonel put in an appearance.
After the formality of the arrest had
been gone through, he said he would waive
hearing and give bail for court. Bail was
fixed at $500 on each of the charges, and the
Colonel, in company with the constable,
went before Squire Ripple, of Washington,
where Thomas Armitage and John A. How.
den, we'll known citizens of Washington,
went on his bond. The Colonel was re-
leased, and the constable returned to the
city.
Regarding the others against whom in
formations have been made it is not likely
that they will be arrested, as they will
doubtless come to the Alderman's Office and
give bail for court. Senator Robbins,
Quartermaster of the Tenth Regiment, who
is Colonel Hawkins attorney, called at the
Alderman's Office yesterday and examined
the informations, after which he said it
would not be necessary to serve the war
immedia tely, if wanted, for court. Alder
man Reilly received word from j. M. Guffey
that he would go on the bonds of Colonel

|CAN SEE SOME LIGHT.
Dark Clouds Breaking Over the
Laramie Cattle Company.
EX-COLLECTOR DOWLIN TALKS.
The Property Of the Wrecked Concern
Must Be Resold.
A CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE NAMED

John Dowlin, Collector of Internal
Revenue of the Pittsburg district under
Cleveland and President of the Laramie
Land and Cattle Company before the
gigantic concern met with financial reverses,
was in Pittsburg last night and stopped at
the st. Charles Hotel Mr. Dowlin was
born and raised in Green county. He is 81
years old, yet he looks as rugged and hearty
as the average man at 45. He has always
been an ardent Democrat, but he never held
any public Office until the late Congressman
Boyle, of Fayette county, induced him to
accept the Collectorship of Internal Reve-
nue.. The district then comprised only a
few counties contiguous to Pittsburg.
An Unhappy Discovery.
After the immediate revenue districts
were consolidated Mr.. Dowlin resigned and
devoted his undivided attention to the cat
tie company, of which he was the recog-
nized head. He had scarcely gotten in
charge Of the great concern when he discov-
cred it to be tottering financially, and when
its wreck come the financial affairs OF
Greene county were shaken from center to
circumference. Mr.. Dowlin, however, was
the greatest sufferer. Two of his farms,
both valuable, were sold for him under the
hammer. His bank stock was coniscated,
and he was practically left without money
or standing. He remained with the wreck
of the great cattle concern, however, and
he is now hopeful that he will within ayear
be enabled to repossess himself Of the prop
erty sold under force.
"We sold the land of the LarImie Cattle
Company" Mr.. Dowlin said last night,
''but the property was returned to us. We
must sell 1t again. The year has been
profitable and the clouds that have been
shutting out even the faintest ray of light
seem to be breaking. We are hopeful OF
recovering at least q part of the money we
lost some years ago. We have valuable
rancho on the Sweet Water and it will help
US out materially"
His Memory Bad.
"where do you live now?" was asked Mr..
IT still live on one of my farms in Green
county, AM widower and I have five
children. Four are married and-no by
George" the old man corrected-T have
six children. -Four are married and two
are single.
"The death of Congressman Craig created
general regret in our county Mr. Dowlin
went on, ''He was held in high esteem by
our people. There IL likely to be
lively contest for Mr.. Craig's un-
expired term. We have been in
formed that Colonel Stewart will
again enter the field but onr people are an1-
ious to have Joseph A Wise, Of Washing
ton county become the Democratic candi-
date. He is beyond question one of the
strongest men in our district, and I am con-
ident he can be elected. He is well known
all through the district, and he is able be-
yond the average citizen. He can be
elected"
