WASHINGTON, IND, June 3.-The
State troops marched into Clark's Sta
tion this morning 500 strong with gat-
ling gun to End that only about fifty
miners had stayed to face the music.
The militia was drawn up in line along
the edge of the woods and Sheriff Leming
then read the warrant against the
miners for riotous conspiracy, and
placed the leaders, Squire Summers,
Dick Gate and John Flynn under ar
rest, bringing them to this CITY this
afternoon and placing them in jail.
As soon as the troops were In line the
railroad men at once
REPAIRED THE TRACK
and the loaded cars were taken on west.
The thousand miners who were report
ed en- route to Clsrk's Station, did not
materIalizs this morning, neither had
they collected at any point along the
Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern. The
certainty that the officers intended TO
enforce the law seemsi TO Quell the
rebellious feeling among the men. The
miners say that as soon as the troops
are Withdrawn they will again stop all
coal cars, but anticipating this, two
companies will be stationed at Clsrk's
until all fear Of trouble is past. Every
thing in this city is now quiet and there
is q general feeling Of relief among all
classes. Trains loaded with coal have
been passing through the city all after

When Silver Comes In.


The restoration of silver to its
proper place in our monetary sys-
tenn by the Independent action OF
this government would immediate
ly range the most potential forces
in European business circles on our
side.
The effect of remonetizing silver
would be to draw the trade of all
silver countries to the United States.
The merchants and producers of
Europe would lose billions of dollars
annually by this change, and they
would, therefore, bring their COM
bined influence to bear upon their
governments to adopt our financial
policy.
The ships which have the carry
ing trade between our ports and the
outside world are nearly all owned
in Europe, and they would be left
empty and idle if the gold standard
countries should make our silver
dollars interrupt their trade with us.
This would make it to the interest
of the ship owners to demand BIZ
metallism in their own countries.
Besides these powerful classes the
common peooIe of all lands would
clamor for silver as soon as they
saw that the United States was tax
ing the lead in the matter. Silver
has always been the favorite money
of the masses.
ALI this is natural and probable.
But suppose the gold standard coun-
tries of Europe should stick to their
policy and cut off trade with us2
In that event the United States
would secure and hold the trade of
all the countries south of us and
India and China, and these silver
countries would furnish us with
everything absolutely needed here
which we have been importing from
Europe.
Viewed from any standpoint, it
will be seen that this great nation
is master of the situttion. We con-
troll tho silver output of the world,
and We can make or unmake silver
whenever it suits us. All that we
have 10 do is to remonetize silver
and the world will follow us.

The DUTY Of Democrats.

We need q revival of the patri-
otis spirit that held democrats to-
gether during the reconstruction
period, and latter when negro
domination and bayonet election
laws were constant menace.
Democrats have grown over con-
fdent and careless. They are un-
willing to sacrifice their individual
interests for the harmony and unity
of the party and many seem to be-
lieve that a division may be reached
without any serious consequences.
This is a great mistake. The re-
publicans count on democratic dis
sention as the potential factor which
win give them victory in the
national elections, and the building
up of the third party gives them
substantial encouragement. We
must revise our old-time spirit, put
none but democrats on guard and
make it understood that the harmo-
ny and solidity of the party must
be maintained at any cost.
The united democracy can easily
win if it will stand squarely on the
Chicago platform which was so
overwhelmingly ratified by the peo-
pie in 1892. But if we drift away
from the platform and repudiate its
financial relief or revenue tariff
planks, then we may look ont for
defeat. Tho dissatisfied democrats
in the party could not do more
unwise thing than tojoin the Popu-
lists. That is the way to waste
their votes, defeat the democracy,
restore the republicans to power
and indefinitely postpone the re-
forms pledged in the democratic
platform. II these democrats wish
to enroll themselves among the
benefactors of their country they
should get together with the masses
of their party and make the coming
campaign on the lines laid down in
the Chicago platform. Once give
the people the assurance that these
pledges will be redeemed and the
democrats will again sweep the
country.
We must have no divisions and
no desertions to the third party.
That would defeat both the demo-
Gratis and the Populists and again
establish republican rulo. For
democrats to join the populists now
is utter folly. If they have found
it SO hard for a great and victorious
party to carry out its promised re-
forms, how do they expect new
party to do anything when it is in
a hopeless minority2-c Constitution.

II we could dream when still and sad beside us
Our loved ones sit through silent summer
ewes,
OF days when blessedness will be denied us,
And life be as n wan, weak wind that grieyes.
What tender speech would give them joy OF
living,
As winds wild roses that the dews forsake.
And into what sweet pGeans of thanksgiving
The harps of solitary souls would breakI
If we could hear above the mounds where
roses
Lie like small wales with violets inlaid.
Above the shadows OF the Parian crosses
A little stir by seraph pinions made.
How swiftly would the olden. wine red dushes
Leap to our lips, where no red flush has been,
Since in the saddest of September bushes
We touched warm hearts that held no pulse
withinI
We know not till the summer time is over,
And something sweet is missing from the air.
How our large lives were welded to the clover
And TO the buds that frightened everywhere.
And, oh, we know not till from Off our bosoms
Painting, we miss flow OF fragrant hair.
How silently amid the summer blossoms
Gods angels walked beside us unawareI

Find one sad level. and how soon or late
Wronged and wrongdoer, each with meekened
And cold hands folded over a still heart.
