Labor Troubles.

CAIRO, ILL.,, March 1.-The strike of the
vitchmen of the Illinois Central railroad
terminated at noon today, compromise
being reached.
INDIANAPOLIS, March Thomas Steel,
receiver of the Citizens Street Railway
Company, was unable to start the cars
this morning, as he secured possession Of
but one barn, the others having been
locked up by the company. Presi-
dent Frenzell went into court this
morning and asked for an injunction
against Steel. As the company is per-
fectly solvent, the appointment of re-
ceiver occasioned considerable surprise.
This was construed as partial victory for
the strikers, and it was celebrated this
morning in street parade by 600 men.

The Death of Historian Fv6e.

The death OF C. A. Fyfe, the English his
torian, who passed away February %, is directly
attributable to the mental and physical depres-
sion from which he suffered as a consequence
OF the charge brought against him about a year
ago, and the attempt at suicide which he made
at that time. Last spring Mr.. Fyfe was charged
with a nameless crime, and he was so over
whelmed with disgrace ut the revolving sccusa-
ton and the terrible position in which he was
placed that he cut his throat on April H. Mr.
Fyffe was brought to court in an ambulance,
and the trial was temporarily postponed owing
to his weak condition In July the London
grand jury, which had been investigating the
charge, declared that no bill should be found
against him

A Crisis Approaching in sprague.

bprAgue AuVertlser, FeD. 70.
The ropes are beginning to tighten around
certain parties IN this city. They begin to feel
the hot breath of a determined and outraged
public. Every breath breeds a sentiment OF
bitter hatred. When in state OF desperation
they thirst for gore. Such men were conceived
in the darkest infamy. They are nothing more
than feather dropped from the wing of an
imp OF hell into the lap of iniquity. Their
breath taints of the poisonous vapors OF unholy
graves Their pointed tongues can only be
stopped BY the smothering wings OF death and
their unholy carcasses hidden from view be-
meath the liquid waves of hell.

Why 1t Is Necessary.

N. Y. World.
An extra session of the new Con-
gress will be as much public as a
party necessity.
The business interests of the
country are entitled to know at the
earliest possible moment just what
changes the Democrats purpose to
make in the tariff. Business can
adjust itself to almost any certainty.
Jt il hampered and thereatened by
uncertainty.
Only by an extra session, confined
almost if not altogether to this
question, can the work of revision
be done with due deliberation and
concluded with justice to all parties
An extra session is needed in
order that the voice of the people
may be obeyed.
1t is needed In order that the
Democatic party may show itself
to be honestly in earnest in re-
deeming its pledges.
The Democracy has entire conf
dence in Mr.. CLEyELAND's wisdom
and courage TO decide this question
rightly. 1t does not believe that

The Inst but not Least.

This, the last annual message of
President Harrison, fills ten col
umns with light face Nonpariel,
and consequently must contain
about eleven thousand words.
He starts out by telling Congress
and the country, that never before
were the people in so prosperous
a condition, and gives figures COM
pairing the census of 1860 with 1890,
and assumes that the great in
crease is due wholly to the wonder
full wealth provoking policy of the
Republican party.
He reiterates his belief in the
protective system and bewails the
foolishness of the people in decid-
ing to abandon the same as indica-
ted at the late election, and inti-
mates that the prosperity of the
country will go to the everlasting
bow-wows when the protective sys-
tenn is abandoned, and urges the
Republicans in Congress to keep
hands off the beautiful structure
erected by them and named after
the little "tin god" of Ohio.
After declaring his unalterable
belief in the high tariff as the
great source of our wealth, he gives
a highly colored picture of reci-
procity, and gives favorable ac-
count of the great increase of trade
with those governments with whom
reciprocal relations have been es-
tablished.
He favors the Nicaraguan canal
swindle and internationalcopyright
is noW in favor of free coinage of
silver, and believes in continuing
the pension frauds.
Taken as O whole the verbose
document declares that the pres
ent administration is the purest,
best and most economical the coun-
try has ever enjoyed, and that the
people are great fools for declaring
in favor of a change.

The Farmers Institute.

The Institute held in the Court
Room on last Monday and Tuesday
was the best in point of interest
yet held in the County.
The only thing to regret is that
the attendance of farmers was not
so large as it should have been,
but the lively interest manifested
by those present in some measure
made up for the lack of great num-
bers.
The foreign lecturers were Hon.
A. 7. McKelvey, ex-Rep. from Bel
mont County and John l.. Shawver
Of Logan County.
Both gentlemen are interesting
takers, and well posted in the va
rious subjects which they discussed.
During the two days Of the Insti-
tute, Mr.. McKelvey discussed the
desirability of "Small Farms"
"Farm Fertilizers" "Farmers In
terests in Legislation" "Profit and
Loss in Fruit Growing" and "Rural
Recreations."
The subjects treated on by Mr..
Shawver were "Farm Buildings"
"Butter Making" "The Adornment
of Rural Homes," "Fruit Culture"
"Tile Drainage" and "Farmers Lii
braries."
All the speeches were supple
mented with suggestions, questions
and discussion by our farmers pres
ent.
Altogether the Institute was a
success, and much useful informa-
tion was disseminated.
Another Institute will be held
next year, at which we hope to see
every energetic farmer of the Coun-

WE have little hope of the Inter-
national Monitary Conference ar
riving at any agreement. England
wishes to maintain her monitary
and commercial supremacy by
maintaining the single standard.
Let the u. S. establish a just ratio
between the metals and open trade
relations with the commercial
world and you will soon hear the
British Lion howl in a different
tone.

A Little Late.

The death of the late Jay Gould
has given opportunity for the daily
newspapers to preach practical
sermon Oh morals.
1t is good omen that the great
majority of them vigorously attack
his methods and condemn his prac-
tices.
1t would have been much better,
however, if they had stated their
opinions in this regard years ago,
and if possible have stayed the
course of this wrecker of fortune
before he had accomplished the
wide spread ruin in financial and
railroad circles so eloquently refer
red to in these post-mortem articles.
The press as we'll as the people
are much to prone to bow in honor
to success without questioning the
methods by which it is attained.
Fortunes of the magnitude left
by the late Mr.. Gould cannot be
accumulated in the lifetime of one
man by honest means, and it is as
much the duty of the press, as it is
that of the pulpit, to bring such
methods into disrepute.
The whole system of "bulling"
and "bearing" of markets in stocks,
bonds and provisions is as truly and
emphatically gambling, as poker,
faro, or baccarat, and our people
should know and comprehend the
truth.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1892-12-10

PRESIDENT HARRISON excuses
the condition of the Treasury by
calling attention to the magnitude
of past disbursements. Secretary
Foster tries to break the fall of an
impending deficit by underestimate
ing expenses for the future. The
true financial condition has been
elaborately concealed, and it will
not be made known to the country
until Congress shall have compell-
ed the disclosure.
