Special to the REcorn.ux1ox-


PHILADELPHIA, Feb. GA terrible
wreck occurred at South-street Station at
1880 O'Clock this morning. The Southern
express on the Pennsylvania road col
! llded with an accommodation train.
Three cars of the accommodation train
were wrecked, five persons killed and fif-
teen injured. The names have not vet
been learned.
Inc rumor quickly spread that it was
President Harrison's special, but this
proved untrue, as his special had already
passed on its way to New York. Those
Killed were in the last car of the accom-
modatIon train, which was crossing the
track OF the Southern express, and was
hit full in the middle by the engine of
that train, smashing it to pieces. The
passengers on the express train were un-
injured.
The accident was due to the slipuerv
condition of the track, making it impos-
slole Tor the engineer of the express to
control the train. Four were killed and
ten injured, none dangerously.
The killed are: Mr.. and Mrs. e. L.
Miner, Media; Mary Reid, Media; Rev.
James Walker, Lenni.
Inc scene at the wreck was sickening
IN the extreme. one woman was COM
pletely dismembered, her head being
found several feet distant from her body.
Other passengers were terribly mangled.
All hands set to work to remove the
people from the debris. and the members
OF the distinguished party set to work
with the rest Axes and saws were
brought into requisition, and the bodies
removed from the mass of splinters and
iron. The bodies were laid out on cush-
ions and covered for protection against
the fallintr Suo,,-

strong grounds against gold mono

missed much that has been written

last nine years, and feel convinced
the attempt to make gold alone
do the work that has always been
performed by gold and silver is a
folly and a crime.'' Mr.. Grenfell,

THE money depression is frequently
referred to as a 'Sbankers' panic,''
whatever that is. A bankers panic is
good. That means that the bankers
get up the scare so their business
would be ruined and their banks closed
up. OF course they did; they enjoy
such things. That must have been the
way of it; it must have been a bankers;
panic. --M5'aneapo6s Journal.
An article in the Chicago Inter-
Ocean of Aug. Goth, contained
this significant sentence: 'sWhen
the future historian tells the
world of the great financial
panic of 1898 he will say, In the
winter and spring months of that
year the New York bankers and
financiers sowed the wind and dur
ing the summer months reaped the
whirlwind.' - The article goes on
to state why the bankers E'sowed
the wind" In the start it was "a
bankers panic,'' and was origin
ated for. the sole purpose of in
fuencing legislation against silver.

The death of Judge Hooker, of
Minneapolis, recalls the fact that
his election as Judge in 1890 was
due to the Democrats of Isanti
county, and here is how it oc-
CURED: Mr.. I. F. Walker was
chairman of the Democratic county
committee of that county and was
particularly active in his efforts in
behalf of j. N. Castle for congress.
At Mr.. Castles request Mr..
Walker came to the UNION Office
to have Democratic and Alliance
tickets printed. Mr.. Walker per-
mitted Judge Hooker's name to
be printed on all the tickets, and
of course his name was on every
ballot sent out by the Republicans;
as result he received nearly all
the votes cast in Isanti county. 1t
will be remembered that the con-
test for judgeships in the Fourth
judicial district was very close that
year and for several days it was
thought that all the Republicans
were defeated, but when the
official returns from Isanti county
were received it was found that
Judge Hooker had pulled through
by a majority of less than one
hundred and all his colleagues
we're defeated. Mr.. Walker was
accused Of treachery to his party,
but really he was not to blame as
he did not know the names of any
of the Democratic judiciary nomi-
nees save Thomas CAVITY, and the
printer did not 60 to any particu-
lar trouble to find out.

the real wealth Of the nation. We
are not to-day one cent poorer IN
that which really constitutes the
wealth Of the people. Such a
panic could have been produced
only by human trickery and chi
canery. The panic was manufac-
tured to order. It was done with
malice forethought, and it has III
it all the elements Of the deed Of
Cain. There was concerted
action of a certain coterie of great
money hucksters throughout the
world. They began without cause
save the secret design of conspira-
tors to call in their loans, to re-
fuse applications for money from
the best security, and in every
way to contract business. They
issued a year ago certain secret
financial bulletins. to the lesser
lights, giving them warning to fol
low in the steps of their masters.
Their movement was against the
money of America. They de-
manded the repeal Of the silver
purchase clause Of our present law.
And they demanded it's uncon-
ditional repeal-that is, that gold
should for the time be only recog-
nized as money. They forced the
president of the United States to
call congress together and recon-
mend this. r
By all means let it be done.
The law as it stands is confessed
failure. It satisfies no one. Re-
peal it at once for a more impor-
tant reason. It is the price Shy
lock demands. You have no
choice. He has you on the hip.
You must. He will. make his
billions in the transaction manipu-
lating his gold, and business will
then resume it's normal SWAY.

Joel Heatwole on Advertising.
Many towns do not seem to ap-
preciate properly the good things
they have about them. A live
and energetic local newspaper is a
particularly good thing; it is alb
lutely indispensable to an intelli-
gent community yet how many
people show in any way that they
know it. For examples: The
Princeton UNION, an exceptionally
able and vigorous country news
paper, has but five and one-half
columns Of home advertisements,
and deserves twenty columns at
least. The Elk River Stnr-Nezvs
is another strictly frst-class publ
cation, but only three and one
half columns of home enterprise
grace it's bright and lively pages.
1t should have twenty columns.
A casual reader of either paper
mentioned would judge from the
local advertisements that Princeton
and Elk River are painfully unim-
portant places, flag stations as it
we're; but we know by passing
through on trains that such is not
the case. The merchants in those
places are noiselessly dreaming
their business lives away, insensi-
BILE to passing opportunities. The
penny drops into their hands, but
the dollar rolls on to be caught by
some one more appreciative and
more enterpris1ng. The same
lack of appreciation Of good things
is shown in many other Minnesota
towns. Sharp competition has
entered into the spirit of western
trade and the man who does not
care to fail or rust out must be in
the procession. He must keep in
the foreground of trade. Properly
conducted newspapers are the
magnets that attract trade to a
business center. Encourage and
enliven the country newspaper
and a fruitful result will always
ollow.-North6ezd Neeos.

My name is Henry jackson, and

went to work for me. He was no
good, and I wanted to get rid of

his horses, but he wouldn't 90.
We had some trouble about nv
whipping his horses, which had
kicked me twice. Peck wanted to
poison gophers, SO I went to Brain
erd june 3rd, / bought some
strychnine. Before I started for
town Peck told me I owed him
$40 or $50. This made me mad
der. He let my calves out, and
they scared my team SO it ran
away. When | got back I gave a
package Of poison to Peck, and he
fixed it in a saucer for gophers and
we went out together. Some Of
the strychnine was left. I cooked
supper and made cornmeal mush.
