THE TRUE REMEDY.

WASHINGTON, August 18.-A mass
meeting OF 10000 citizens was held
today in Cleveland, Ohio, the home
of Congressman Johnson, at which
committee was appointed and dis
patch sent to Johnson demanding
that he either vote for the free coin
age of silver or resign. Johnson re-
piled that he would do neither.
If Congressman Johnson were
elected on free coinage platform, or
il in any wise he were committed to
silver during his campaign before
election, then the true remedy in his
case is to hang him in twenty
hours after he returns to his congress
sional district. There is no statute
law in our system of government to
punish a member Of congress who
proves recreant to his trust and be-
trays his constituents. He is abso-
lutely independent OF the wishes OF
the people he is elected to represent.
All the people can do is to retire him
after his term expires. But there Is
II law higher than statute laws OF
constitutions even-the law of self
preservation-which is flexible tc
meet the requirements of the circum-
stances of any case that may arise
We can conceive of no remedy Sc
remedial, equitable and just III tn,
case of the betrayal of the people by
their representatives in either house
Of congress as the hangman's gallows
electrocution in such case is to-
mild punishment and should no
be thought Of. The gallows is TIN
true remedy, and the sooner the PEG
pie apply this remedy the sooner the,
will rule this country in fact instea'
of in name simply.

DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
EngIand's Income Tax.

In order to makeup deficit OF
So, 500, 900 in the revenue for this
year the British chancellor of the
exchequer has increased the in
come tax from pence to pence
per pound sterling. This will in
crease the revenue to the extent OF
So, 100000.
The income tax in England has
varied from IA pence in 1854, 16
pence in 1857, C pence in 1892 90 to
2 pence inlS7476. When the gov
eminent wants any extra money il
is taxed out of the peoples incomes.
No British income is taxed unless
it is over $3.50. Last year the 6
penny tax on incomes yielded $685.
100000, and the remainder of the
revenue needed was collected by
means of import and excise taxes.
Great Britain, as our readers should
know, is not absolutely a free trade
country. She has tariff on luxu-
ries that yielded s99,OOO,OOO last
year, but only a few articles pay
this tax.
The tax proposed for this country
will not touch small incomes. 1t is
not likely that it will affect any in
come under $4,000. The idea is
that it should be borne by those
who can best afford it, and whose
present enjoyment and past mon
opoly of so many governmental
favors, with bond holdings exempt
from taxation, make it just and
equitable that they should pay it,
and thus make up the loss of reve-
nue. that will be caused by reducing
the tariff to a revenue basis.
Such an income tax should meet
with no opposition in any quarter.
1t will tighten the burdens of the
masses, and will not be seriously
felt by those who in this way will
pay their just share of the expenses
of the government.-Atlantd COnsti-

In an article from the Point
Pleasant REGISTER, published else
where, Editor Tippett reads the riot
act to those who want to class with
Republican journals the papers that
dare criticise the MacCorkle- Chiffon
combine, which now seeks to con-
troll the politics of this State. You
are right, Brother Tippett. Those
of us who commenced with the re.
organization OF the Democratic
party in this State and battled on
until we triumphed over the cor
rupt rule of Registration boards and
Republican politicians, are not to
be cried down because we dare to
rebuke ring rule in our own party.
We have been too long in the har-
ness and have voted the straight
Democratic ticket too long for that.

CAIRO, Ills, May s.-One of the
worst catastrophes that has occurred
in this region for years took place at
f:45 o'clock Sunday morning at the
head of Wolf Island, four miles below
Columbus, KY, "a miles south of this
city. A fiue in the larboard boiler of
the steamer Ohio collapsed, causing the
rear end of the boiler to be blown out.
1t injured 90 persons, five of whom are
now dead and 10 more of whom will
die.
The victims were at once removed to
the hurricane deck, where they lay for
several hours with only that attention
which could be given by the passengers.
The boat was unable to proceed further
and lay at the bank waiting for relief.
As the tug Aegus of this city hove in
sight and was hailed, the victims were
transferred to her deck and she was at
once steamed for Cairo, arriving here
at 2:30 p. m. Word had been tele-
graphed ahead, and nearly every physi-
clan in the city was at the wharf to
meet her. The terrible sufferings of
the victims were relieved as much as

The President has appointed
Gen. C. c. Watts, of Charleston,
District Attorney for this State,
and in doing SO he has bestowed his
favors upon a worthy man and an
able lawyer, and sound Democrat.
A concentrated effort was made to
prevent his appointment, but he
won against the combined efforts of
his enemies. We congratulate Gen.
Watts on his appointment.
Col. Vinson, of Wayne county on
the same day was appointed U. S.
Marshal for this State. While Mr..
Vinson may not be generally known
throughout the State, yet we can
say for him that he is a man of
great influence in his part of the
State, and is fully competent to full
fill all the important duties of this
most important Office. 1t is under
stood that Hon. LATE Garden, who
was also a candidate for Marshal,
will be Col. Wilson's chief deputy.

BERLIN, May e.-The North German
Gazette expresses the belief that the
coming elections for the reichstag will
repair the attack on the prestige of
Germany made by the vote in the
reichstag on Saturday against the army
bill. The people will surely recognize
that the completion of the defences of
the country is necessary to its contin-
ued existence. The National Zeitung
says that the reichstag just dissolved
was the worst parliament since the
foundation of the empire, and should
the electors give in to the triumvirate,
composed of Bebel, Richter and Lieber,
the ruin of Germany would be effected,
peace menaced and the achievements
of the years of 1856 and 1870 be de-
Rtroved

WASHINGTON. May s.-The following
has been issued by the president for
publication:
EXECUTIVE MANSION, May 6, 1893.
1t has become apparent after two
months experience, that the rules hereto
fore promulgated regulating interviews
with the president have wholly failed in
the operation. The time which under
those rules was set apart for the reception
of senators and representatives has been
almost entirely spent in listening to appli-
cations for of1iceErhich have been bewilder-
ing in volume, perplexing and exhausting
in their iteration, and impossible of re-
membrance.
A due regard for public duty, which
must be neglected if present condi-
lions continue, and an observance
of the Limitations placed upon human
endurance oblige me to decline from
and after this all personal inter
views with those seeking appointments to
Office, exceptas /, on my own motion, may
especially invite them. The same consid-
erations make it impossible for me to re-
ceive those who merely desire to pay their
respects except on the days and during the
hours especially designated for that pur-
pose. earnestly request senators and
representatives to aid me in securing for
them uninterrupted interviews by declin-
ing to introduce their constituents and
friends when visiting the executive man
sion during the hours designated for their
reception. Applicants for Office will only
prejudice their prospects by repeated i'm
portunity and by remaining at Washing
ton to await results.

Aud yet one of his important APP
pointments was a notorious kicker
who was selected for no other rea-
son than that he deceived his

convention. Another was an Ohio

public service over in his own State.
