Can't Disarm the silver Federation.
Pomeroy Independent. Pop.
There are more fools to the square inch
in the A. r. A. society than anywhere
outside of Hades, If the report cent out
from Tacoma be true that the members of
that organization in the legislature
will introduce q bill to disarm the
Silver Federation by depriving all
organizations in the state of arms
except the National Guard. Our surprise
10 that there ia ignorance enough in any
community to elect such fools as men,
bers of q legislative body where q mem Der
is supposed to know enough to pull q
fellow member out of the fire il he by
accident should get in. There will be a
general and several colonies of the fed
GRAFTON in the legislature, but We
can assure the A. Z. Us they are not big
fools enough TO offer bills TO make il an
oflense to be born fool or even deprive q
fool Of his seat in the legislature or to bear
arms as the constitution of the United
States declares shall not DO pro-
hibited. We can say to the fools send
ing such threats that the silver
Federation in this state Is strong enough
TO look after its own affairs and will use
just as many arms ~ it desires and when
Is 30 elects, despite the A. 7. A. or any
other revolutionary set of fools who would
put all others in position to submit to
their bigotry and tnsolence, which are
emanAtions of ignorance and the intoler-
ance Of fools

Sincs the less of the Ivanhoe sailors
have been afraid to so to ses on some OF the
coasting colliers. Last week the bark De-
troit. at Nanaimo. was pronounced sea-
worthy by the underwriters agent. but
the crew refused to make the trip TO San
Francisco. She shipped new crew at
Victoria and went to sea. Near Cape
Flattery she began to leak and might have
gone down but for her rescue BY . tug.
When towed back to Victoria she had
eleven feet OF water in the hold. At the
same time the bark Mslrose. with coal
sprung Q leak when 100 miles off the cape.
She also was picked mp by tug.

Truth will prevail. Correct principles
true in government, whether military,
civil or ecclesiastical. II applies. more
over, to parliamentary bodies. and 10 just
now being exemplihed with almost start
ling emphasis.
The star Of Thomas B. Reed, who II
destined again to be speaker Of the house
of representatives, rides high In the
heavens and its brightness Eliminates
even Democratic nebulosity.
When this Republican 'czar" compos-
eddy counted Democrats present but not
voting. In order that the business Of
the body over which he presided
might bs transacted, . tempest of
baffisd Democratic rage broke forth
and spent its force against his i'm
movable will. Mr.. Reed remained
cool and imperturbabls. The business of
the house proceeded in proper order. I'LL
clustering vas impossible. and while all
rights Of the minority were carefully con-
served and guarded, IL nevertheless found
itself impotsnt to defeat legislation by the
ancient method of delay.
Speaker Crisp assumed tho spsekership
with large Democratic majority at his
back. The principle and practice advo-
Gated and enforced by Mr.. Reed were
strsnuously condemned and Indignantly
rspudiated. The old regime was restored
and the Democratic majority-far larger
than the Republican majority in the pre-
vious congress-essayed to do business.
They failed ignobIy. Il required but q
little time to sxemplify the fact that .
pitiful minority could absolutely clog and
stop the wheels of legislation. Swallow
ing their discontinue, although with
bad grace. rules were finally adopted en-
bodying In principle, although vary
ing in detail those obtaining under
the rule OF Mr.. Reed. After they were
adopted and rigidly enforced, the house
found IL possible TO legislate without uu-
due obstruction.
The senate i, conservative. II Is high,
ancient and eminently respectable body
| o; limited numbers and grave demeanor
Courtesy" holds high place. The sug-
gestion. made during the prolonged de-
bates upon the repeal of the Sherman Law
and afterward over the Havemsyer tariff
| bill. that even senators ought net to be
talked 70 death, was received with austerity
and cold dsfAyor. Democrats. Republi-
| cans and Populists stood aghast at the
suggested innovation. liz would be the
| extinction OF an ancient and time-honored
custom. 8 radical departure from estab-
lished usage, an annulment Of an historic
senatorial prerogatiye. Itwss not adopted,
nor seriously urged.
| But the leavsn is working. To the sur
prise of the country the senate. and prob
ably more 10 himself than ell others, the
| Democratic senator from Missouri yester-
| day confessed his sins and announced his
conversion to the doctrines preached and
| prscticed by Missionary Reed.
Mr.. Vest now advocates the adoption by
the senate Of cloture rule. In effect and
| purpose identical with that which Thomas
T. Reed justified and enforced when
| speaker of the house of representatives.
A higher enoomium could not have been
paid for stalwsrt allegiance to principle
than Senator Vest has paid to Gear"
| Reed.

A TOWN TERRORIZED.

EAST LIVERPOOL, o.. March 81
This city has been practically in the
hands of violent mob of striking pot
ters all the evening. Mayor Morley
and the city police have been practic-
ally powerless to preserve order. Thou
sands of drum ken and infatuated men
have ben securing the streets attacking
men wfo have gone to work. 1t started
with assaulting L. l.. Ashbaugh, chief
packer at Knowles, Taylor d. Knowles.
James Rinehart and his wife have
been surrounded by crowd of 1000
people for an hour. The police are
powerless to protect them. W. f. Gray
and his wife were driven into the home
of friend and are not allowed to come
out. A travelling man and his wife
were attacked on Sixth street by the
mob, and the lady tainted while the
husband was beaten to insenslbility. a
man named Cook was violently beaten.
Mayor Morley, i'll trying to Quell the
riot, was hit in the back with brick.
