WILL HE WEAKRNs

Some persons believe THAI President
Cleveland will sign the Bland seignor.
age bill, and thus follow the lead of
the Democratic party that elected him.
As executive of the nation his highest
duty is to the people, irrespective Of
party afiliation, and If he believes
this movement IN the direction of free
silver is to the direct injury of the
best interests Of the country he should
not hesitate q moment in using the
prerogative Of the veto. His position
on the monetary question is well
known, and he has unequivocally
placed himself on record on different
occasions as in favor of the single
standard as the measure of value.
To sign bill which provides for the
coinage of the bullion that is simply
collateral on which silver certificates
to the full amount have been issued
will be stultifying himself in re-
markable degree, and the people will
never again reposs confidence in him.
The statesman and patriot cannot b-
tempted from the path of duty by
political or other attractions, ard al
ways proves himself equal to any
emergency.
When Mr.. Lincoln, during the FIRST
years of the civil war, was impor-
tuned to issue the emancipation pre-
clamation, he rose above party, and
did not follow the advice of Greedy
and other extremists until he censid-
cred the act emsncipating the slaves
Of the south necessary to preserve
the union. The nation will hold Mr.
Cleveland responsible for the result OF
any injurious legislation, and the ex-
ecutive, net the party, must bear the
blame in history. Mr.. Lincoln had
the highest conception of the impor-
tance of his position, and fearlessly
pursued the course that he considered
right. 1t cannot be expected that
Mr.. Cleveland has the same sterling
qualities as the lsmented Lincoln; but
n trying ordeals he has an unerring
light to guide his course in the exam

not hurt, but their feet were blistered,

an absence of apont 10 hours. Guns

joyfully in from the search.

After Many Days.

XENIA, O.. March 20.-A great many
regiments of soldiers passed through
this city during the war, going to the
front, and the native women of the
place prepared provisions and ted them
when they reached the railroad station
Among the soldiers passing through was
man named Macbem. He became very
much interested Ia the little daughter
Julia Galloway of q woman from
whom he received food. He asked the
girl, not much older than . baby, to
write to him, and the little thing, re.'
membenng his request. would at times
persuade members of the family to
write to him. The letters were promptly
answered, and the correspondence has
been kept up at intervals ever since.
Machem was one of the first to move to
Washington Territory. He secured COM
siderable land just outside Tacoma. A
little while ago Miss Galloway was nett
fed of Mschem's death, and has since
received official notification that the
land mentioned had all been wllled to

Labor Riot In Altoona,

ALTOONA. Pa, Marco 22-Yesterday
was day of considerable excitement and
some violence, with good prospect for
a serious riot. Early in the morning over
800 meu marched to what is known a.
the Red bridge, about two miles below
this city, and compelled the foreigners
employed at rs cents per day On the Bell
wood extension of the Altoona & Logan
Valley road to cease work aud flee to the
bills ior their lives. Next the crowd. oy
this time strongly reinforced, proceeded
to the Elizabeth furnace, where in two
shanties about 80 Italians were found and
bodily thrown out and compelled to
leave. after which three different attem pts
were made to fire the buildings. The fire
hSwever, was put out in escn instance
During the trouble at this point, one
Italian was shot ID The neck and badly
beaten about the head win a stone. The
next point of attack was Bellwood, where
all the foreigners found were driven our
Wnen the crowd. now fully 800 strong.
returned to Altoona, it proceeded at once
to the Italian colony. ON Ninth avenue.
between Seventh and Ninth streets, with
the avoWed Intention of cleaning the en-
tire neighborhood of both the foreigners
and the shanties.
THE RIOT sQUELCHED.
While the mob, now numbering fully
5000 persons, were hesitating about be-
ginning the attack, General Superintend-
ent +. l. Sheppard. of the PENNSYLVANIA
railroad Company, appeared upon the
scene, and, forcing bis way into the cen
'er of the crowd, demanded to be shown
Its le~ders. Several OF these being point.
out to him. he asked them 10 have the
crowd dispersed, giving his assurance
that none of the foreigners would b.
gwen further work, and that if :hey were
gwen little lime they would al Lave
the city. He also promised that Amer
leans weuld be given work by the A.
toona d Logan Valley Company and its
contractors, and that all would be well
if violence were not resorted to. Sheriff
Hughes and Mayor Hoyer also made
their appearance soon sfterward and ad-
dressing the crowd IN much the same
strain, the backbone of the proposed
riot was broken and the crowd gradually
dispersed. The Logan Valley officials
announce this evening that no more work
will be done on the extension of their
lines until all labor troubles are amicably '
settled and no further danger or out
break may be feared.

THE WILSON BILL.

The Wilson bill passed the House on
the ID instant by . vote Of 20S to l40.
As . full House consists Of $50 mem
bers, Is did not vote on the bill. A few
Democrats voted against the bill, prob
ably about the same number as there
were Republicans who voted for free
coinage; therefore. according to the rea-
soning Of Nevada Republicans, the
Democratic party must be in favor Of
protection.
The original bill was amended in Com.
mittee Of the Whole by making the In
ternal Revenue bill q part Of it. This
includes the income tax feature, which
is a part Of the Revenue bill. 1t i'm
poses a tax Of two per cent. on all in
comes, including salaries Of officials,
which exceed $4,000 a year.
The bill now goes to the Senate, and.
IS the previous question and gag rules
generally are not tolerated in that body.
q final vote may not be reached before
next Summer. Whether or not it will
pass the Senate is problematic. That
body is very nearly equally divided
politically, the Democrats having "A
members-just one-half Of q full Sem
ate. II lie believed that some OF the
Democratic Senators will vote against
the bill and there is not much probable
ity Of its passing the Senate in it's pres
emit form.

A London dispatch Of the lst instant
rays: Recurring to it's statement Of the
impending resignation Of Gladstone, the
Pail Mall Gazette says the announce
ment was made with a full sense Of the
responsibility. We were prepared for
official denial. but were not prepared for
virtual confirmation Of the accuracy Of
the statement from Gladstone himself.
The whole detail is an elaborate attempt
to prepare his supporters for the step he
has decided to take. II is now manifest
that his tenure Of office is limited to
months. if not weeks. His withdrawal
means the disruption Of his party and q
general reconstruction of all parties.
While the Liberal papers profess to be
Satisfied with the denial, others are in
clined to agree that the answer lie riddle.
The majority Of the general public are
inclined to think the report is true.

1t is a little unfortunate that the ex-
piration Of Admiral Benham's term Of
service should follow so abruptly his
timely assertions of the rights Of Ameri-
can trading vessels at Rio. Rightly or
wrongly, his recall will be construed as a
censure OF the course he adopted at
Rio. English newspapers are already
mouthing ~disapproval Of that course and
unless the administration desires to be
considered as influenced by English crit
icism il should continue Admiral Ben
ham at his post until the Rio crisis has
passed. The fact that Admiral Benhsm
will be succeeded. if retired, by the Ad-
miral who was censured for saluting the
flag of the insurgent Admiral will not
reconcile the public to the loss OF Ad-
miral Benham.-S. F. Call.
