The Secretary of the State of Iowa
has ruled that no name can be placed
upon a ballot by petition that is al
ready placed upon another ticket or
ballot for the same position. This de-
cree bars the whole Citizens Prohibi-
ton ticket, on which Rev. Bennett
Mitchell is candidate for Governor.
The ruling shows that Iowa politicians
do not propose to allow two parties to
nominate the same individual for of
fee.

Government Ownership OF Railroads
In 1889 the railroads of Russia paid
the government net surplus of ST.
300, 900. Taking this as basis the
railroads of the United States would
pay all the State and nation taxes.
India has 16. 900 miles of government
railroads, magnificent depots and iron
telegraph poles. The poor working
people of India average only z cents
per day. The railroad fare is one seven
tenth of cent per mile. So they can
ride 119 miles or the price of a days
labor. The average price per day in
the United States for labor is about
81 90. There is wide difference
between z cents and 81 so yet the
American laborer can only ride about
fifty miles for days work. The citi-
zen of India can ride sixty nine miles
further for the price of days work
than the American citizen. Golden
Rule.

BEorgan's Amendent.

Senator Mongan's amendment to
the Voorhees, bill proposes the re-en-
actment of the coinage act of 1887,
and the remission of twenty per cent
of the tariff duties to the countries
which receive American standard dol
lars of the present weight and fine
ness at par as legal tender money.
Why should there be any objection
to such an amendment It's adoption
would restore prosperity to the coun-
try and enhance the price of labor and
the products of labor. A remission
of onefifth of the tariff duties to coun-
tries that accepted standard dollars
at par would be an incentive to all
foreign nations which ship products to
the United States to accept American
silver dollars at par. 1t does not suit
the Wall street combination, how
ever, and it is not probable that the
present Congress will agree to it.
Gold and nothing but gold, of which
there is not enough to pay the interest
much less that principle of the indebt-
edness of the world, will satisfy the
combination. Reno Journal.

Berlin. January Alt is evident that
the lawless element among the coal miners
is determined 10 revenge itself for the dis
charges OF so many Of the men who took an
active part in the troubles In the mining
districts. Dynamite, which is extensively
used in mining operations, is easily pro
cured by the discharged men, and this ex-
plosive seems to be the favorite weapon of
the mslcontents in wreaking ven
geance upon the mine owners. To-day
a terrific explosion occurred In the CONSOLE
dalton colllery az Gelsenkirchen. and after
the excitement had su0sided il was found
that IL had been caused oy dynamite cart
ridges that had beenisecreted in the mine,

that they would explode at a certain time
Though many men we're at work It. so
happened that none o.. them was in the Vi
entity Of the explosion and therefore no
NOBODY was killed. A number. of the
miners, however, were thrown VIC

HILL AND CROKER.
The Worlds Albany Correspondent Draws
Few Companions Between the Two

The Worlds Albany Correspondent Draws
a Few Comparisons Between the Two
Men.
New YORK, January 14-Tammany's
alleged family turmoil continues TO excite
the interest Of politicians and people
throughout the Empire State. Especially
is this true Of New York City, where men
interested in politics congregate and every
body seems to be asking is this mountain
laboring only to bring forth mouse, or
will it be irregular political volcanof"
According to the political gosslps, II MT.
Croker does make war on Mr.. Hill 1T Will
cause the downfall of Tammany.
Here is what the Albany correspondent
Of he World has to say upon the matter:
@Richard Cookers sudden aud unex-
pected attack upon Hill made last Tuesday
and the story that has grown out OF IL tnat
Tammany is anxious TO throw him over,
have aroused the friends of the Senator.
They have been studying the past and have
reca led facts and circumstances that prove
to their mind three things, To the Senator,
they say Tammany owes It's present
strength and influence. To the Senator,
Richard Croker owes his success as
leader and if Tsmmany raises hand
against the Senator it will show the black
est ingratitude and will cause its own
uOWuldll. AAlCA VIZ -AhIAO S-A~SS SNN"NO
ments make them positively.
One of Senator HIPS friends said to-
day that Croker was slightly jealous OF
Hill, because he recognizes in the Senator
a master.
''Hill is bright and quick" said he,
while Croker is lazy and slow. Hill de-
ponds upon his public utterances, Croker
upon his silence. Hill Is miles above him.
II Croker dares show his teeth, Hill will
come back to this city during the summer
vacation and by fall he will have machine
built up that will crush Tammany
into atoms. Croker as fac
tor in State politics should know
that he is not capable of graphing with the
Senator and be had better not try it. Hill
can get along very well without Croker;
Croker cannot get along with BILL Warm
friendship has never existed between the
two men. They are too far apart mental
iy. A warm Friendship does exist be-
tween Croker and Murphy. They are two
OF kind. The idea of man like Croker
turning him down j. absurd. II Croker is
not careful, Hill will turn him down. Nei-
Their Hill nor his friends believe much in
Tammany's politics Tammany men play
politics as an Irishman plays the violin
by main strength"

WAsH,SeroS. d. c., January 1.-THE
resolution introduced in the House yester-
day by Mr.. Burrows, of MICHIGAN, asking
for an Investigation of the whisky trust
has given rise 10 a dig crop OF sensational
rumors Among them is one to the enect
that the managers of the trust are SO
anxious to have Congress pass bill in
creasing the tax on whisky, which would
greatly enhance the trusts profits, that
thev have adooted corrupt methods to in
f1uence CongresSmen. such as distributing
whisky trust certificates among members
of their families and other persons sup
posed tothave pull with them.
+ Careful investigation OF the origin OF
these stories leads 10 the belief that they
have been circulated by spectators VINO
want 10 depress the price Of Whiskey
Trust certificates and that they have no
foundation in fact 1t looks as IL the per-
sons who spread the reports are themselves
in the trust and are doing it as part Of a
stock jobbing operation This is the belief
Of leading mem bers of the House, who are,
in consequence, very much disinclined to
to take any action in the premises, as
they believe any thing they might do at
this time would be used by the spectators
10 forward their own game without beae-
fitting the general public in the least. II
is pointed out that those who control the
whisky trust have it in their power to
put prices up or down almost at pleasure,
and are believed to have done so on many
occasions, thus making large profits in
Wall street With this power in their
hands il is regarded as in the last degree
unlikelT that they would try to intiu-
ence Congressional action by distributing
right and left their certificates. In well in
