TROUBLE IN MINERAL POINT.

We are In receipt of letter from
Mineral Point, o., touching the in
junction writ of 9. Edwards Holden
agaiL st the Mayor and Council of Min
eral Point, restraining them from issu-
ing 81 500 of municipal bonds for the en-
couragement of manufacturing indus
tries. AS other points beside Mineral
Point are wrestling with that same
question, we may be excused for
printing portion of the letter at hand.
Our correspondent says:
II inclose q clipping from a Cleve-
land paper from the pen of the would
be famous 9. Edwards Holden, of our
village. We realize that you live in a
city which is among the most enter
prlstng of any in the state, and after
reading the inclosed If you can tell us
how to treat this man We will be under
many obligations to you. His bombast
is perhaps not worth minding, but our
people are opposed to him holding out
the idea to strangers that he made the
village. We emphatically deny that
we are made of any such stuff. Time
Is too precious however, to comment
upon an article composed mostly of
wind, and we want to know how to dis
pose of this man. Have you any such
in your thriving city, and If so what do
you do with them? We have more
valuable fire clay than a dozen firms
can manufacture in forty years, and
we don't want to be encumbered in
| any manner"
We suggest that the case be tried in
the courts, and let,the courts decide the
legal points involved, and then If the
Holden injunction is sustained, why
move up to Canton, where fire clay and
coal are abundant, and in close prox-
unity, and where we have railroads il
ell directions, ample banking capital
with banks anxious to loan their money
and where the people are all so full OF
push, pluck and prosperity and every
man is.so self reliant and confident
that he feels able to take care of him.
self, and never thinks of either calling
on the municipality for succor, or in
voking the restraining influence of tht
irritating injunction.

THE Henry CIews circular Of Jan. "A,

THE Henry Clews circular of Jan. IA,
says:
zone very manifest effect of the
Brussels Conference has been to cause
European financiers to take a much
more serious view of the silver situa-
ton, as respecting their own countries;
and the main fact conducting to that re-
suit appears to have been the plain in
timations of our delegates that, in the
event of the Conference failing of any
definite result, the United States might
be expected to suspend the purchase of
silver. The effect of this is seen in a
large curtailment of acceptances by the
London banks,i connection with Eng.
lands foreign trade, especially with
India. a representative of the Roths-
childs,in addressing an influential meet
ing in London, expressed the fear that
in the event of the United States stop
ping their purchases of silver, the India
| Government would find it necessary tC
abandon the free coinage Of silver"

THERE is no question as to Governor
McKinley'5 denomination. The party
workers are determined that he shall
run again, but not for the glory there
will be in it for the apostle of robbsr
tariff. They would nominate him for
no purpose than to get the opportunity
of turning him down, and putting him
forever out of a prominent place in
politics. The reason for this is, accord
ing to the authority already quoted, no
Governor can make indiscriminate
promises of appointments or deliberate
ly dump his trusting friends without
making himself extremely unpopular,
and Mckinley has been guilty of both,
The Harrison crowd is also in the fight
against Mckinley, and the Governor
has been informed of the fact. At a
recent pow-wow held in Washington
at which President Harrison and sever.
al followers of Senator Sherman and
Secretary Foster were present, plot
was laid for the overflow of Mckinley
ism. At this meeting the complaints
against the Napoleon of Protection
were many and no one displayed great
er bitterness of feeling than Foster
himself.-Steubenville Gazette.

Secretary of State Ryan was eX-Offi-
clio supervisor of elections and served
three month5, when he resigned to ac-
cept another office. The salary OF su-
pervisor is $1,000 per year. Mr.. Ryan
took the whole $1,000, although he
served but one-fOurth of year. Mr..
Poorman was appointed Secretary of
State by Mckinley, and when he dis
covers Ryan's unlawful grab, he also
reels an itching palm, aud makes big
fuss in order To induce the Legislature
to give him an extra grab. What next
happens. Does the Legislature make
an Investigation and compel Ryan to
disgorge his ill gotten gains? Not a
bit OF 1t. The Ohio House passes a bill
TO recoup Mr.. Poorman out of the pub,

backwards with giant strides, and dis

verdict on this and other cases OF

THE largest serpent of which accu-

and noted was an anaconda which DR..
Gardner found dead and suspended to
the fork of tree during his travels in
Mexico. 1t was dragged out into the

measure thirty-seven feet in length.
Inside of it were found the bones and
flesh of borse in half digested state,
and there was no doubt that it had
swallowed the animal whole. While

the libel law to read as follows: No
prosecution for libel, either civil or

retractiOn or correction be made as
fully and publicly as the libelous article

pass it speedily.

Tur nnmher of voten cast FOR nresi.

The number Of votes cast for presi-
dent in 1880 and 1892 supplies basis
for an estimate of the population of the
country. The whole number Of votes
cast in 1880 was 9,219947. The total
population according to the United
States census of that year was so, 1885,
1888. There were then about 544 inhab-
itants for every 100 voters. The num-
ber of votes cast in 1892 was 12,00l 1897
Assuming that the number of inhabi
tants to each 100 voters was the same in
1892 as In 1880, we would have G5,287,-
273 as the total population in 1882.
