Hoean,s Army still Prisoners.

ST. PAUL, April 2s.-The contingent of the Coxey army that was arrested by the United States troops at Forsythe on Wednesday night is still at that point waiting orders from Washington to their captors for their disposition. They are 331 in number, and they are guarded by Colo nel Page with a detachment of the Twen- ty-second regiment. He had been ordered to turn them over to the marshal but that official seems in no hurry to take them in charge. It seems that the plan is to wait until the present excitement at Butte and Helena has considerably subsided and then take them to Helena for trial

DISMAL BALANCE SHEET.

The New York sun in its usual lu-
minous fashion sums up the first year Of
CleveIandism, along with a suggestion as
TO the balance of his term, as below:
The three hundred and siXtysiXth day
Of Mr.. Cleveland's second term finds the
President in a Dismal Swamp and the
Democracy in the indigo depths of dis
enlargement, if not dispair.
That is the balance sheet of the years
business. 1t has been a sorry year for
Democracy.
Well, it is the duty of honesty to tell
the exact truth about bad situation; but
it is not the less the duty of courage to go
ahead and make the best of it,
BE- The Democracy's task for the next three
years is to save the pieces. In this melan-
choly but indispensable undertaking Mr..
Cleveland can contribute valuable assist
ance if he is disposed so to do.

The business man advertises because
he wants custom, not because he has it,
The more he wants it the more he must
advertise. These have been trying times
TO the business men Money has been
tight and trade dull. The ordinary ad-
gertisements that paid well enough when
business was brisker have not brought in
the same returns What is necessary
rhe abandonment of advertisingY ? BY no
means. Greater efforts in that direction
must be made Competition in advertis-
ing must accompany competition in sell
ing. Work harder to catch the eye of the
purchaser. just now abundant success
awaits the man who spares no effort to
catch the trade there is to get, The bold
advertiser is the man who VIII get it.

SATURDAY, MARCH II, 1894
AN OPEN COUNT.

The action of the Grand Jury of Allie
gheny county emphasizes one of the best
features of the Baker ballot law, and one
which is not as widely known as it might
be. On the evening of the last election,
three citizens of McKeesport came to
their polling place and demanded to be
let in after the polls were closed, that
they might see the count. When they
were refused they broken open the door
and were returned by the constable on n
charge of interfering with an election.
The grand jury ignored the bill, being
properly instructed that these men We're
acting within their right as citizens to be
present, outside the guard rail, and in
sight and hearing of the election officers
while the ballots were being counted.
This right is clearly conveyed in the law,
and should be exercised wherever there
is any reason to believe that it will add a
final safeguard to the honesty Of the
election. A free, fair and secret ballot is
an empty phrase without an honest count
at the end of it.
There is another provision of the law
which is even less generally observed. IT
is not only the ri, It of qualified voter,
but it is the prescribed duty of "the police
officers, coustabes and deputy constables
now required by law to be present at the
polls, to remain within the voting room
hut outside the guard rail, while the
votes are being counted, and to preserve
order therein" Election officers should
acquaint themselves with such details a'
these, that no virtue of the law may los'
its effect.
