Upton, Ind, Nov. 6, 1898.
The repeal bill passed at the extra ses-
sion repeals only so much of the Sher-
man law las directs the secretary of the
treasury to purchase from time to time
silver bullion to the aggregate amount of
4.50O.0OO ounces, or so much thereof as

The Sherman law repealed only so much
of the act of 1878, known as the Bland

monthly purchase and coinage of the
same into silver dollars Of not less than
two million dollars, nor more than four
million dollars worth of silver bullion"
Hence the remainder of the act of 1873
is in force, and it provides. among other
things. thus:

CLEVELAND. Nov. 1O.-A daring at
tempt was made to rob the Society for
Savings this morning. ard It nearly re-
suited in the murder Of Col Myron T.
Herrick, the treasurer of the instftu-
ton. Owing to the bravery of Col. Her.
rick the robber was baked. althourh
the treasurer had a narrow escape from
death, a bullet fired by the robber pass
ing through his coat and vest and bury
ing itself in the frame Of an Office door
Col. Herrick, shortly before noon, en-
tered his office after escorting Mrs Her
rick, who had called TO see him. out OF
the bank A moment later stranger
entered the room and asked for a pr
vate interview. Col Herrick led him
into the trustees room. the stranger
closing the door behind them. The man
was OF medium hight and build, with
sandy mustache. lie was rather poorly
dressed and wore SLOUGH hat and was
in appearance not different from scores
of men who call upon Col Herrick
daily. Col. Herrick seated himself upou
a corner Of the table that stands in the
middle of the trustees room. He was
at the corner next the door The
stranger passed him and stood at the
farther end of the table. Without pre-
hminary remarks, the man said:
want some money, and 1 want you
TO give IL to me. Now you can go into
the vault and give me $4,000. I'll go
with you and the clerks in the house
will think you are showing me the
vaults"
The stranger quickly drew a revolver
from his pocket and thrust the muzzle
against Col. Herricks head. IF YOU
don't do that" he continued, "In blow
you to h. I have charge of dyna-
mite in my other hand and I'll blow US
both up"
Col. Herrick promptly struck the man
in the face, knocking him down. The
robber sprang to his feet, shot at Col.
Herrick, and sprang out of an open
window into the street The ball passed
through the right side of Col Herrick's
coat The robber has not been found
Col. Herrick, when seen after he had
recovered from his excitement. said:
The man requested a private inter
view with me and we walked into the
inner office I then asked him what he
wanted i want $50 00.' he said 'You
go with me TO the vault and get il. You
walk ahead and if you turn from a
straight line or attempt 10 communicate
with anybody I will kill you At that
he pointed a pistol at my head"
Col. Herr1ck grasped the revolver,
which was aimed at his head. with one
fellow in the face. Then a desperate
struggle followed, at the end Of which
the fellow fired az Col Herrick and
made his escape. The police were noti-
fled at once, but they have been unable
to obtain any clue to the Nould-ba
robber. Col. Herrick thinks he has
seen the man in the bank within a week
and is certain he could identify him IL
ne should see him again.

ANSWER TO CORRESPONDENT.

To the Editor-Sir: Can a county
school board enforce the following reso-
luton passed at their last meeting:
Resolved, That we. the trustees of the
various townships of Brown county,
state Of Indiana, will not employ any
teacher in the common schools of said
county who holds an exemption license
unless said teacher goes before the
county superintendent and prOcures a
certificate upon a regular examination.
Further we will increase the salaries
of all classes of teachers now employed
except those exempted from examina-
ton"
The law governing exemption license
you will find in house bill No. e. of the
acts of 1928, if 1 make no mistake in
the matter.
Also. can a trustee. under his oath of
office, discriminate against a superior
and in favor of an inferior teacher in
the matter of wages?
A. A. MANUEL, Postmaster
Beck's Grove, Ind.
The entire matter of employment of
teachers is in the control of the trustees.
They may refuse to employ teachers
with exemption license, or without eX-
emption license. They can discriminate
in wages in favor Of anybody, for any
reasons. or without reason. The trus-
tee is the judge of superiority, of fitness
and Of everything pertaining to the Of
flee Of teacher In other words the trus-
tee is a czar-an autocrat-and the only
right of his constituents is to protest
against a teacher who is unsatisfactory.

REFoRM THE TARIFE..

The claim of republican papers that
the recent elections show a change of
opinion among the people as TO the de-
STABILITY of tariff reform is one that
will cause very little worry to any in
telligent reformer The people of the
whole country passed on this question
last year. Their verdict was very
plain and emphatic. No state has re-
versed its verdict this year except New
York and New Jersey. and in both Of
these there were ample local causes for
the change without taking the tariff
question into consideration. 1t is true
that the republican majorities in Massa-
chusetts, Pennsylvania and Ohio were
largely increased, but there was also
ample cause for the change in these.
1t is apparent that a considerable pOr-
ton OF the people have believed the in
cessant cry Of the republicans that the
panic and the business depression were
due to the proposed change OF the tariff.
or course 1T s not true, but they have
believed II, and that settled the matter
so far as these elections were concerned.

A BALLOT PURIFIER.

The decision of our supreme court In
the case of the state ex rel Beedle VS..
Schoonover is attracting outside atten-
ton to the excellence OF the Indiana
election laws as preventives of bribery
and corruption The law sustained by
the court In this case is the one pre-
pared by Judge McCabe. now of the ST.
preme bench, and passed by the legis-
lature of 1889. It provides, in brief that
a bribed voter shall have an action for
$500 against the person who bribed him.
or furnished money to do so. and that
the Judgment may be enforced by inn
prisonment, as in cases of bastardy.
Schoonover was candidate for clerk of
the circuit court for Warren county. and
was charged in the complaint with buy
ing Beedle's vote for the sum of $40.
His attorneys demurred to the COM
plant, and the demurrer was held good
by the lower court. This decision was
reversed and the lower court was di-
rected TO sustain the complaint.
The attorneys for the defendant at
tackled the law with much ingenuity.
They claimed that il was repealed by the
general election law, which was passed
a few hours later; that 1t put the de-
PENDANT twice in jeopardy. as he was
also subject to criminal prosecution;
that it was contrary to the fundamental
principles Of our constitution. as 1t ar

THE ELECTIONS.

The result OF last weeks elections is
not particularly surprising. 1t is one
Of the peculiar facts in American poIiti-
cal history that the party successful
at presidential election invariably
meets defeat in the comparatively I'M
important local ard state elections of
the year following its victory. So unin-
terruptedly has this thing occurred that
shrewd politicians long since ceased to
regard these loft year" results as in
dicative of the future.
This year there was more reason than
ever to anticipate republican success
and democratic defeat The disap-
pointed ofioe-seekers who wanted re-
venge for fancied personal grievances
were all democrats; financial crisis
always charged. no matter with how
little reason, to the party in power
was on the country; and the democrats
had in the last elections secured control
of several naturally republican states.
which have merely returned to their old
party allegiance.
Take a look at the states which the
republicans carried Tuesday: New York
seldom votes twice in succession the
same way Last year it went demo-
cratic. This was its republican year, and
the nomination of Maynard for judge
weakened the democracy. Iowa is nat
urally republican and the same may be
said of Ohio and Massachusetts. In
their victories in these states the repub-
licans have merely held their own.
About the only national significance to
the result Tuesday comes from Ohio.
The large majority of Mai. Mckinley
gives that gentleman a commanding
lead for the republican nomination for
president, and shelves Benjamin Harri-
son. who lost the country and practi-
cally lost Ohio one year ago.
There is really nothing in the result
to discourage the democracy. 1t has
lost little. If any. solid ground. But it
is awakened to the necessity of watch
fulness and work if the control of con-
gress is to be retained next year. This
is well. for the overwhelming victory of
1892 had tended to throw the party into
a condition of lethargic over-confdence.
In putting democracy on its guard the
defeat of Tuesday may prove a bless
ing in disguise.

POISON IN THE PORTER.
Three Tragic Deaths In a Boston
Family.

BOSTON. Nov 9.-The mystery sur
rounding the tragic deaths of Mrs. Han
nah Toole and her daughter Margaret
at their home i'm South Boston last night
after partaking of a bottle of porter,
has added horror tonight. Once more
the silent hand of death has entered the
home of this once happy family Of nine
and claimed the father at 6 o'clock to-
night. There were four in the family
present at the bedside of the dying man.
They were Joseph, John, Patrick and
Annie. Stephen, Michael and Minnie
were confined at station 6 charged with
the murder of the mother and Margaret,
whose bodies lie at the city hospital
morgue The father passed away never
knowing that his wife and daughter had
gone before. He had been confined to
his bed for months suffering from an
incurable malady. Wednesday night he
had been watched by his wife and
daugher Margaret, and at o'clock he
fell off into a sound sleep and the two
watchers left the bedside and went into
another room. In the room which they
entered was a son, Michael. He was
sent for bottle OF porter. the drinking
of which caused the death of Mrs. Toole
and Margaret. The report of the medi-
cal examiner shows that there was cyan
ide of potassium enough in the stom-
achs of the two to kill forty men,
