terrorizing the women of the place.
Before they had succeeded in doing
much damage the citizens decided to
prove conclusively that Iawless Dor

the Sheriff and his posse could
reach the place when the men were

TUESDAYS ELECTIONS.

Elections were held in thirteen
States last Tuesday. In some of
those States officers from Governor
down were elected: in others, only
few State officers were chosen, and
in two of them, Kansas and Color
ado, only county officers were elect
ed. In New York, Ohio and Iowa,
the Republicans achieved signal vic
tories, while in Nebraska, which was
also doubtful State, the Populists
were victorious. In Iowa, Governor
Boies, who was elected two years
ago by plurality of about 5000,
was defeated by plurality nearly if
not fully as large as that which the
State gave Harrison in the Presi-
Dental election year ago. Two
years ago Governor Boies who was
an outspoken advocate of free coins
age; this year he repudiated the
platform upon which he was elected
in 1891 and was defeated. There
we're great defections from the Dem
ocratic ranks, some of the dissatis-
fed going to the Republicans and
some to the Populists. The latter
gained one State-Nebraska-and
largely increased their vote in every
State In which State ticket was in
the field. They had hopes of carry
ing Virginia, but the colored vote,
as general rule, went to the old
parties.
The election of Mckinley in Ohio
insures him the Republican nomina-
ton for President IN 1896 without
opposition, unless the Congressional
elections next year materially change
the political situation. He repre-
sents the high tariff prin ciple, and
besides is 'favorite SON. of Ohio,
The Democrats now begin to see
the effect of the extra session called
for the purpose of completely demon
etizing silver, contracting the cur
rency and making money scarce and
dear. The party was placed in full
control of the National Government
by the elections in 1892. 1t made
the fight on tariff reform and won.
In the extra session the issue on
which it came into power it was ut
terly ignored, and the whole power
of the Administration used to degrade
one-half the metallic money of the
country. The party divided very
near the middle, the large wing 60
ing with the Republicans into the
Wall street camp and many of the
rank and file, following the example
of their leaders, joined the Republi-
cans last Tuesday.
1t is of very little consequence to
a large majority of the people of Ne
vada which wing of the Wall street
combination is in the ascendancy.
Both have been tried and found
wanting. A majority of the leaders
are against the silver interest and the
hope of the masses is in the defeat of
both. Next year a Congress is to be
elected, and if the people are true
to themselves they will see that no
member of the gold trust, whether
he calls himself Republican or Dem
ocrat, is given seat in that body

There is one chair of education that
ought to be established in college now
even if we have to demolish the
Greek course and turn the professor
of r hetoric into a hod carrier to make
room for it. That is professorship OF
finance. The currency and banking
question is of such vital importance
that half of our dark age college
learning might well be abandoned to
give it room. What nation shall
do about paper money, what plan 1T
should adopt when one Of the precious
metals becomes scarce and the other
plentiful-shall state or national
banks or the government itself Issue
paper money?-these are matters not
to be settled by political party ora
tors. The trouble is that no man
lives today who is wise enough to I'LL
such a chair of finance, even if one
were established in college. The
French are the best writers on tnan-
cial science and economy. But the
American professorship of finance is
one that could not be filed by man
who had got his knowlege out OF
books. He would have to take a
view of the actual situation in his
own country and the world. Years of
thought and study would then be
required to teach the subject intelli-
gently

A new way to make good living
has;becn discovered by certain clever
men in large cities. knowing the
constant demand. for fairs and fes-
tivals for benevolent enterprises, they
keep track Of the progress OF such
events. They offer themselves as
experienced managers of church and
benevolent fairs, concerts, carnivals,
etc. OF course it is only right that
they should be paid for their time,
and then there is their admirable
experience. They know better than
anybody else what attractions will
wheedle the most money out OF
reluctant pockets, SO they are put IN
charge Of the benevolent enterprise.
By the time one is over the next is on
and these clever gentlemen swing
round the circle. When the season is
over ana the world goes out Of town
the manager who has been paid for
his time and experience has a snug
little sum laid by out of the proceeds
of charity entertainments, quite
enough to last him till the benevo-
lent season begins again, and some
thing over. Nothing like beneVo-
lence.

Record.

Gen. Benjamin f. Butler, lawyer.
statesman, politician and millionaire.
manufacturer, died at his Washing
ton residence, 220 New Jersey avenue,
southeast, at 1:30 Wednesday morn
ing. The general has been in Wash
ington much of the time this winter
watching a case in which he was
interested in the supreme court.
Every Monday he was a familiar
figure at the sessions Of that body.
when decisions are handed down.
His age as we'll as the general impair
ment of his health while listening to-
oral decisions and looking for his own
was matter of comment time and
again. Finally few weeks ago the,
case was decided against him
Whether or not the loss of this case
to which he had paid such close
attention brought anything more
than the casual defeat will never be
known. His death created immense
surprise, as it was not even known he
was ailing any more than any man
who had lived and labored so long
would.
BENJAMIN Franklin Butler was
born in New Hampshire, Nov 5, 1915.
When 20 he was graduated from
Waterville college, Maine. Having
read law and been admitted to the
bar, he began practice at Lowell
Mass. His first political office was
that of member of the Massachusetts,
house of representatives., to which he
was elected in 1853. He was a
delegate to the constitutional con-
vention of Massachusetts the same
year. In 1859 he took his seat as
state senator. He eserved as delegate
in the democratic convention in 1860
held in Charleston and Baltimore.
AT the outbreak of the civil war he
entered the Union army as brigadier
general, having already attained
experience in the militia. He was
made major general in May, 1861,
one month afterward, and served
throughout the war. He was first
located at Baltimore, then at Fortress
Monroe. In 1862, in connection with
the naval forces under Farragut, he
assisted in the capture Of New
Orleans, Of which he was afterwards
governor. His command in 1868 was
in Virginia and North Carolina.
The next year he made an unsucCess-
full attack on Petersburg. After a
failure to take Fort Fisher in the
same year, he was relieved of his,
command. He was returned to con-
gress as Republican in 1866, and
reelected to FOrty-tirst, Forty-second
and Forty-third congresses, but
beaten as candidate for the Forth
fourth. Having fruitlessly endeayored
for years to become governor Of
Massachusetts as greenbacker, a
democrat, or both, and after being
beaten several times in nominating
convention or at the polls, he was in
1882 elected governor as a democrat,
receiving 5000 majority. The entire
Democratic ticket, except its head,
was defeated. In 1883 he was
nominated for reelection by the
Democrats, but was defeated by Gov.
Robinson, the Republican no1ainee.
When not engaged in politics, Gen.
Butler has practiced law with
distinguished success. In 1884 he
was the candidate of the Greenbacks
and anti-monopolist party for the
presidency and received l38, 1926 votes,

Cured of A Broken Back.

The Drs. McCann, of Pittsburgh,
are about ready to report to the med

igan who was cured of broken back
In October, 1899, while Mulligan was
decending with wheebarrow under
an iron ore elevator at Laughlin's
blast furnaces, the elevator dropped.
lie received fracture of the verte-
brae, and, as is usual with such cases,
was paralyzed from the loins down.
Eight days after Mulligan's
entrance to the hospital the physi.
clans, in the presence of seyenty-tlye
students Of the West PENNSYLVANIA
medical college, made an incisiOn
eight inches long in the mans back
The vertebrae was exposed. A frac~
ture of the arches of the 10th and llth
vertebrae was found. Fragments of
bone were found pressing on the
spinal cord. This pressure was
relieved. Two months later Mulligan
could move his right leg. In ten
months the patient walked out of the
hospital. He is now at work. The
report OF the operation was kept
secret until it was certain the opera
tlon would prove a perfect success.
