An Independent Candidate.

There is some talk, in the Baltimore news
papers, at least, of bringing out an lndepen-
dent Democrat for Congress in this district
An Independent Democrat-thati is so-c called
Democrat who is higher than his party-is no
Democrat at all. He is an assistant Repub'
lican, and therefore cannot hope to receive
the support of any Democrat.
1t is even said that good candidate could
carry both Carroll and Cecil, because Mr.
Talbot was not the choice of the Democrats
of either county Mr.. Talbot was not, but
he was regularly and fairly nominated, and
is entitled now to the loyal support OF every
Democrat in the district. Opposition to him
ended when the regular nominating eonven-
ton spoke. He is now the party's candidate
and stands for lower federal taxation and
for opposition to the iniquitous Force BILL
An independent candidate would cut sorry
figure in this district.

Weaver's Denunciation of the South

General Weaver, the nominee Of the third
party for the Presidency, can scarcely expect
to get many votes from Southern white men.
He has been no friend of that section. The
following are some extracts from one OF his
speeches made some years ago:
81 want to congratulate you first my fellow
citizens, on the suppression of purely Demo
cratic rebellion, gotten up by Democrats for
the Democratic purpose of discovering the
Union and perpetually establishing human
slavery. Nov and forever it is establishing

A ToRRID WAVE.
Great Loss of Life and Prostitution
of Persons and Stock.

From every telegraph Office in the country
details of the effects of the intense heat on
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
are given. Occasional showers temporarily
cooled the atmosphere, but in various cities
the number of deaths and progtrations is re
ported at from to 100 daily, while horses and
mules dropped dead in the streets in such
numbers that it was with great difficulty the
bodies could be removed rapidly enough to
permit traffic From Maine to California,
and from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico, the
heat gas given at from sc to ll0'. The loss
Of life among children and aged persons was
unprecedented, apd hospitals were filed with
those effected. Work vas suspended in fac.
tory. shop and field, and brick and stone
masons, carpenters and timers could not
make halftime.
In Chicago, on Wednesday, there were so
deaths and over 100 prostrstions; in New
York. Philadelphia. Brooklyn and Boston
the death rate was enormous. It is the long
est continued hot term known.

SENATOR GoRMAN SPEAKS.
He Thinks the Democrats Can Win.


WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator German
has returned from New York impressed with
the idea that Mr.. Cleveland is going to be
elected. The Senator, as member of the
national committee, met all the party leaders
from the various states, and they reported
that the party is in excellent shape to win in
November.
The representatives from the Northwest are
confident that Cleveland will carry Indiana,
Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and Nebraska.
1t is hardly probable that all of these states
will be found in the Democratic column, al
though. as the Senator playfully remarked,
This is period of surprises. In New York
there is every indication, the Senator says,
that the Democracy is determined to win, and
the same feeling is expressed by the members
of the committee from other states. The
work of the committee was transacted with a
unanimity that contrasted strangely with the
faltering and hesiiating methods of the Re-
publicans. In drawing a comparison between
the two national committees Senator German
said:
"The Republicans wanted one Of the big
men of their party to take the Craftsmanship
oftheir committee, and, failing in that, they
were Obliged to take a clerk. With the Dem
Gratis it was different. We knew Just what we
wanted, and we got it, without any delay. 1t
seems to be generally understood that Elk
Secretary Whitney will give close attention
to the management of the campaign, and Mr..
Harrity will be his associate.
Mr.. German added: sit is a little early to
get up much enthusiasm or do much of the
real work of the campaign. Headquarters
will be established. the plan of battle will be
laid out, and each member Of the party will
have an individual part to play. Success can.
tod oil
along the line, and earnest and aggressive
work day and night until the contests is de-
cided.''
Senator Ransom of North Carolina, who is
also member of the national committee
went to New York and retired with Senator
German. He concurs in the views of the
Maryland Senator, and adds that the enthusi
asm for the Democratic ticket appears to be
genuine in the city of New York.

HE cHEERED THE ASSASSIN.
a Soldier at Homestead hung up by the
Thumbs and Disgraced.

HOMESTEAD, Pa, July 24.-Private Iams,
of Company, Tenth Regiment, shouted
yesterday afternoon when the report of the
attempted assassination Of Mr.. Frick reached
the provisional brigade for three cheers for
the assassin. Colonel Sctreetor, from his
quarters, heard the indendiary shout. He
hurried into camp and ordered the regiment
to be paraded in double quick time. When
his command was drawn up he recited to the
soldiers the remark he had heard.
81 heard the voice distinctly the colonel
said. Il think | recognized it, and want
the man who made the statement to advance
two paces.' The colonel had recognized
Iams' voice, and he was standing directly in
front of the accused when he was talking.
Immediately private Iams stepped to the
front. You offered three cheers for the
killing of Mr. Prick, did you not ?'' the colo
mel asked. lams did not answer. He hung
his head and nodded in the affirmative. He
was ordered to the guard house. The colo
mel and his staff, including the surgeons, then
went to the guard house.
The officer of the day took charge of the
criminal, and at the coonels orders he was
hung up by the thumbs for twenty minutes.
The surgeons remained with the unfortunate
man during all his punishment; one of them
kept watch on his pulse, while another looked
after his heart, and at the end of twenty min :
utes Surgeon Nei' ordered him taken down.
When released, young Iams was limp and
apparently unconscious. The surgeons re-
manned with him for an hour, when he was
taken to his quarters
The severity of Iams' punishment was due
to his refusal to take back or apologize for the
expression. To-day one side of his head was
shaved and the buttons cut from his uniform,
of which he was then stripped. He was Civ,
en- a suit of cast-of plain clothing, part being
a pair of oyeralls, and was at once drummed
out of the camp. Young Iams lives at
Waynesburg, Pa.
The action of Col. Streetor is almost uni
versally condemned, and Iams will seek re
dress through the courts. He was not tried ,
and had he been, no such punishment Is pro,
yided for such an offence.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1892-07-30

Lieutenant Col Streetor, of the Pennsyi
gania militia, seems to regard the militia as
special Prick guard, and any expressions
adverse to Mr.. Priek as reasonable. He will
probably live to regret the summary and in
human punishment he Indicted ON young
Iams, of his regiment. The surgeons. who
stood watch while Iams was under torture,
seem to have been experimenting how near
they could go to the death.line andhave Iams
recover. Il was two hours before he did
recover, and Il viii be many years before
the hasty Streetor forgets the Iams affair.

That is worth more than all the learning of
the schools as to the practical operations OF
this law. We are told now that this act will
accomplish the extraordinary feat, unheard
of before in economic history, of putting up
the price of labor and putting down the price
of the product; yet right here, at our own
door, as to an article which is used by every
man, woman, and child in the United States,
we find that it has more than doubled in price
