The Hennessey Statue.

From the Lewiston (Ms.) Journal.
The monument which is to be erected
in New Orleans in memory Of the late
Chief of Police Hennessy, who was shot
in that city few months ago, is nearing
completion at the works of the Haliowell
Granite company, and it will probably
be finished by the 1st of April. A sim
gular circumstance in connection with
the monument is that seven OF the nine
men employed upon its construction are
Italians.

Why There Are Drunkards.

Walter Besant wrote a novel to show
that drunkards are the victims of in

that the danger lies in an inherited

To The Editor of the Eagle.
Please give us in the columns of your

when the Cherokee strip will be opened
to settlement. Yours truly,
A SUBSCRIBER.
The EAGLE has no opinion of its own
or of anyone else upon which it could
even venture a prediction. The admins
tration including President Harrison and
the interior department, are undoubtedly
anxious to open the strip at the earliest
day. Six months ago they felt confident
that the proclamation for the strip and
the Cheyenne and Arapahoe lands
would be issued in one and the same in
strument, but that now seems more and
more uncertain.

ence in the two squibs above, in ref,

unfair attacks upon Democrats who
voted for Crisp, it should not now
keep up such fight and deprecate the
good work going on in Congress, as
it is doing, but continue to follow the

FREE WOOL, BAGGING & TIES

The Democratic House has just
passed, by over two-thirds majority
two very important blls-one placing
wool on the free list, and one placing
bagging and ties on same. These
two measures alone will save to the
consumers of this country millions
Of dollars annually, if the Repuhli-
can Senate and President permits
them to become laws. Bagging and
ties will be greatly cheapened, as
will also all kinds Of wooden goods.
The Democratic House thus shows
its adherence to that great party
principle, tariff reform. Next IN
order it expects to pass bills placing
necessaries on free list, and reduce
tariff duties on tin, and other meas
ures-reducing taxes on articles OF
necessity. In this way prices OF all
such articles will be lowered, Gas

TWO PLATFORMS.

The new humbug third party
(misnamed Peoples party) is in q
fume and sweat about its so-called
platform, recently adopted at the st.
Louis meeting. The ''bone OF con-
tention" is over a plank that provides
for paying the Union soldiers the diff
ference between the greenbacks in
which they were paid and gold.
Plank in dispute reads thus;
eve demand that the govern
mcnt issue legal tender notes and
pay the Union soldier the difference
between the price of the deprecated
money in which he was paid and
gold"
Leaders of the new humbug Re
form CD party heteabouts, (among
them Mr.. Bush of theiTribune, } and
in other Southern States say it was
not adopted. On the other hand
Hon. ID. +. Barker, OF Little Rock,
The American Nonconformist, a
Peoples party paper OF Indianapolis,
Ind, Pomeroy's Advance Thought,
and other papers who had reporters
present, say the plank was adopted
~ a part OF the platform. Here is
spectacle for even an angel to
look in wonder upon! Two plat
forms in one-a double trap, like
that famous one of the darkey, to
"catch 'em coming and a-gwine; =
one for the North, containing q
plank to catch the soldier vote; one
for the South, without this plank to
catch the unsuspicious ignorant AL
lianceman vote.
But the trick will not work-the
humbug has already been exposed
by such men as Barker, Livingstone
and others, who were present and
opposed its adoption, and by true
and fearless papers all over the land
Union soldiers are now drawing
pension. to the tune of S150, 600, 900
a wear from the national treasury,
which enormous sum is impoverishing
the taxpayers Of the South, which
receives very little benefit from it
through pensioners. 1t would take
a vast sum to comply with this
plank of the third party humbug,
promising to pay them back-salary
for services during the late war, and
our people who are already over
burdened with taxes for their benefit,
and the benefit of Northern pluto
Gratis, will never submit to such a
thing. Thousands, like leeehes, are
drawing sustenance from the govern
ment, through fraudulent pensions,
and our people insist that they be
turned adrift.
The third party humbug can never
succeed in the South, by means of
double dealing platforms nor any
thing else, because our people know
there is nothing in it.
