When the Homestead strike took
the form of lawlessness, democratic
leaders tried to catch the Eails Of the
strikers and make it appear that it
was the Mckinley tariff law that
caused the trouble. But tine strikers
own witnesses before the Congress-
ional Committee said the Mckinley
tariff had nothing to do with the
present question. But now since the
democratic brethren hare raised the
Tariff Homestead question they may
ask themselves and the strikers how
much their wages would be reduced
II the democrats get into powtr ana
reduce the tariff to free trade sys-
tenn of intercourse with cid country
nations, The Homestead strikers
then would have to take European
wages. They would not get half the
wages that they struck on. If they
can't stand the wages undsr q re-
publican protective tariff how will
they be able to stand it under
democratic free trade system that
will reduce wages to a level with
wages paIu III Ldfope'
The coffin containing the remains
of Mrs. Elizabeth O'Brine was thrown
out OF the hearss at the railroad last
Sabbath forenoon. The funeral took

force that the coffin shot out of the
hind end of the hsarse and fell to the
street in front of JEFF Middahs house.
The accident occurred SO quickly
that the eye could scarcely follow
the ghastly sight of seeing the coffin
turn on its side, the bottom flying
off and the top bursting out aud the
corpse rollics out upon the street IN
The dust, Ths largo cr5Sd OF peo-
pl. who we're still there on account
of the fire turned pale, many turned
and walked away, and it was coun-
tenance under the best of control
that did not show traces of distress
over the shocking sight. The pro
cession of friends of the deceased
had passed to the west side of the
station, and were spared the sight
that unnerved many people. Many
willing hands assisted the undertak-
er to replace the remains in the cof-
fin and by careful management ii
was placed in the rough box and
shipped on the train to its lastsesrth
ly resting place at Lewistown. The
hearse team did not get away, but
was stopped few rods down the
street by the driver and by their
owner Mr.. Ruble
