IT is not generally known, but it is fact
all the same, that President Harrison has
taken the pains to post himself privately
and precisely upon the details of the dis
pute at Homestead. The day after the
Pinkertons surrendered to the workmen q
warm personal and political friend of tho
President wired to a gentleman in this city
asking for certain information about the
wages paid the number of men employed,
and the changes in the scale at Homestead
which caused all the disturbance. This in
formation, together with other matters re-
lating to the Homestead affair, some of
which were furnished by the officials of the
Carnegie Steel Company and some by the
men on the other side, undoubtedly reached
the President some time that day in his re-
treat at Loon Lake, n. Y.
1t is characteristic of the Presidents con-
scientious attention to details in the dis
charge of whatever he considers his duty,
that he did not rely upon newspapers or the
ex parte statements OF interested individu-
ais in order to comprehend tine situation ut
Homestead. My authority for this account
of President Harrison's methods also in
forms me that it IL the Presidents invari-
able custom in public matters as important
as the Homestead affair to prosecute an in
dependent inquiry on his own account
through the medium OF trusted friends in
private lie.

A New w.y to rouud : Zoo.

A New wsy to Found Q Zoo.
They have q zoo in Uniontown, and the
people get good deal Of fun out of it. 1t is
o select gathering of animals; in fact. am
not sure that there are many more beside
small monkey and q medium-sized bear.
But what the zoo lacks in numbers it makes
up in the quality of the monkey. Like
Artemus Wards kangaroo, the monkey is
an "amoozin' little cuss." II is a grest pet
with the drivers and conductors of the
electric cars that are also a new and excit-
ing feature of Uniontown life. The way
Uniontown came to get this zoo is some
thing out of tho ordinary, and may furnish
Mr. James Mcknight with an idea of how
he may increase his little flock of animals
out in Schenley Park. A few months ago
the park, which belongs to the electric
street car line, contained nothing but trees
and q good deal Of landscape in the dis
tance. circus happened to come to town,
and as they often do, the circus mon tried to
run the city and the inhabitants thereof.
But they bad not calculated upon the e1-

An absurd story has been sci
aloat which, while it bore error on
its face, Is properly set at rest in
the following:
Editor Shubuta Messenger:
That part OF the proceedings OF
The peoples party which says, "af.
ter talks from Judge 5. II. Terral,
Hon. s. Evans, a vote
was taken and a peoples party was
determined on,' is clearly mis-.
leading, doubtless without being
so intended by MIR. Trolter, The
secretary of the meeting, and does
Judge Evans and my father a
grave injustice. Anyone capable
of understanding The English Ian
guage, would naturally infer from
the extract quoted and The con
nec'lon IN which it is used, that
Judges Terral and Evans encour.
aged the movement that resulted
in the birth of the peoples party
in Clarke, whereas the contrary is
the fact. They have no sympathy
for any movement opposed to the
Democracy. They attended the
meetings through motives of curl.
osily, and were invited 10 address
the small crowd present. They
did so in short, made pointed
speeches discouaging the lorna
ton of a new party, and advised
the people 10 remain loyal to the
Democracy and true 10 its princi-
pies.
1t is passing strange that a man
OF Mr.. Trotter's intelligence would
be so ineXact in the construction
of his sentences as 10 leave any
doubt as TO the meaning he wished
TO convey. 1t is usual in political
meetings 10 say so and so favored
a thing or measured and so and
so opposed it. That would have
been proper in this case. Why was
it not done? The question Is one
MIR. TrOtter alone can answer.
Yours truly, j. L. TERRAL.

Whatever our prohibition friends
may think of the present saloon
law, there is one darkey in Kosci-

straight prohibition as easier and
milder in evasion than the present
dram shop law. This law does
not allow a saloon keeper to sell

them in Kosciusko got a negro to
