A SyercilesS Mob,

LOUISVILLE, July PA special to
The Post from Princeton, Ky, says:
4 mob of masked men went to the
residence of Joseph Howton, at Lewis
ton, eight miles from this city, during
the night and murdered him and MS
sen Hewlett Howton Just as the
clock struck 12 one of the mob knocked
on the door and asked to see Hewlett
Howton He came to the door and
after talking a minute or two was
seized and pulled outside and shot
through the body. The mob then
dragged him to the gate and shot him
seven times. After they had finished
him the gang went back to the house.
The white haired father begged that
they spare his life and the lives of his
family, but his entreaties were unheed-
ed and they made him back up into a
corner so they could shoot him with
out danger to his wife and daughters.
The leader deliberately counted ten
five of the men fired at the old man.
One ball struck him in the wrist, an
other in the abdomen and a third in
the groin. The men then left the
house taking with them boy who
worked on Howton' S farm. They car
ried him to a vacant building and fas-
tended him up, telling him they
would kill him if he attempted to es-
cape before daylight. One Of the wo-
men was so badly frightened that she
was utterly prostrated, and her death
is looked for. There is no theory as to
the cause of the mob's action. Fhe
Howtons were quiet, inofensive peo-
pie and stood we'll in the community.
The sheriff and a posse, with the coun-
ty attorney and the coroner, have
gone to the scene of the double murder
to make thorough investigation and
| it is believed that the murderers will
be appehended. If they are caught
they will be lynched.

of terrific storm at Lake Geneva late

FURTHER PARTICULARS.

ATLANTIC CITY, n. j., July ia
visit to the scene of the Atlantic Ave
nue. Casino accident this morning
showed that one of the big pillars
holding the floor had given way and
the weight on the floor gradually
pressed the other pillar sufficiently to
weaken it and the floor opened like
trap in the centre. The floor, howev-
er, slipped down gradually and the
disaster was thus not so serious as 1t
would have been had it crashed
through suddenly. The injured are
all people who were the first to reach
the lover floor.
Mayor Stoye this morning condemn
ed the building and directed the build
ing inspector to have it torn down
and also to make an investigation
the unfortunate affair
At the Elks' Grand Lodge session
this morning an air of gloom pervad-
ed the room. \ committee was ap-
pointed to looked into the condition
of the injured with power to render
whatever assistance they deemed ne
cessary. Those seriously hurt are I'M
proving excepting Frederick hlap-
roth, the Camden musician who was
so fearfully crushed beneath the beams:
He is still alive, but is in a critical
condition. The only other person
who was reported as being critically
hurt. Mrs. Rockwell, of Philadelphia,
was improved this morning, and will
recover. 1t appears that many people
who were reported as seriously hurt
were only slightly bruised.

On the proposition of a town

On the proposition of a town
site law we see the only hope
for the protection OF property
owners in the Chickasaw Nation.
Such a law would place the
towns on a solid foundation and
at the same time it could not be
objected to by the Indians with
any just reason. The individual
citizen holders of the townsite
lands have almost ceased to re-
alize anything from the lots from
the fact that they have, for a
valuable consideration, quit
claimed their titles to -citi-
zen occupants, hence they would
not be losers by such a law, but
on the contrary the vast sum of
money that would be realized
from the absolute sale of lots
would be turned into the treasury
of the Chickasaw tribe, and
would be pro rated among them
in common. For this reason the
Indians themselves should favor
the bill becoming law. Their
tribal rights would in no manner
be interfered with, and at the
same time the towns would be
given a solidity that would en-
hance the value of their farming
lands many fold. The nom citi-
zen farmers are doing reasonably
weH under existing conditions
and are not cTamoring for any
radical change, being content
to await the pleasure Of the In
dians in arriving at a state of
mind debating their readiness for
dissolution of their tribal func-
tions. We want state or terrific
Eialhood, but believing that con-
gress will not give US that desir-
ed end in theface of the formida-
BILE opposition to such a radical
ehaDge, Sse are strongly In favor
of waving every thing else and
working in solid phalanx for the
passage Of the townsite bill. This
much accomplished and the pso-
pie of the Chickasaw Nation can
say we'll done.

GIVE US STATEHOOD.

Delegate Catron's new statehood en-
abling act makes many radical departures
from ELL former bills offered in congress
on the subject. Mr.. Catron apparently
would have none on guard save actual
bona fde representatives of the people,
duly chosen by the qualified electors of
the territory.
Well, that suits us! Wewant statehood.
No selfish partisan motive inspires our
desire in this matter. Delegate Catron
is more than welcome to have it all fixed
up to suit himself and his political pup
pets as far as the preliminaries are con-
cerned. If he Should succeed in securing
the passage of this enabling act by con-
gress, there will be ample time for con-
sidering the political features involved,
and when it comes to doing the voting
the New MEXICAN has no fears but that
the friends of Democracy will take hand
in framing the constitution that will make
it extremely interesting for their political
antagonists.
However, Delegate Catron should not
undertake to work in any side issues as
respects the courts or cases pending be-
fore the courts. That would be fatal to
the cause of statehood!

THrRE is nothing so amazingly mys-
FERROUS or complicated about the "fnan-
cial problem that confronts congress-"
The simple addition of a dollar barrel to
the tax now imposed on beer would swell
the annual receipts of the government
about $3s,ooO,OOO, or $l6,OoO,00O more
than the estimated deficit for the current
fiscal year. And if congress desires to
realize handsome surplus, it might add
say 10 cents gallon to the tax on whisky.
Taxes of this sort infict no suffering on
any one and they achieve the end with
neatness and dispatch. Even the brewers
and distillers would have no just cause to
complain so long as the supply of free
rain water holds out.

PRESS COMMENT.
New Policy Of the A., T. 4 .. +.


The politicians of Kansas are said to be
in stew of excitement because the new
management of the Santa Fe has not
designated special agent to run the
politics of the state. This has been done
under former managements, and, as the
time for renewals of annual passes is at
hand, politicians who have been in the
habit of receiving them are in state OF
feverish anxiety. They have had free
transportation over the Santa Fe for so
many years that they can not reconcile
themselves to the possibility of being
compelled to pay fare. The other COM
Santa Fe, an9 in losing passes on that
road many country statesmen who now
ride free would lose all.
The alarm is not without reasonable
ground. There is no doubt that much of
the oppressive legislation concerning
railroads which has been enacted or at
tenn pied in the past has been inspired by
professional legislators, who, not content
with their free transportation, have
sought to extort other favors. This stand
anddeliver policy has been recognized by
the railroad management as legitimate
for so long that it has become biennial
source of revenue for many men who ap-
parently have no other means of earning
living. If they are not members of the
legislature they are in the lobby, work
ing, not for the good of the people, but
for their own profit, and they become so
absorbed in this industry that needed
legislation is neglected and the public

PARTY LINES FADE AWAY.

Party lines instantly fade away when it
comes to sustaining President Cleveland
in his courageous declaration in favor of
maintaining the integrity of the Monroe
doctrine.
The Monroe doctrine may not yet be
recognized as part of the code of inter-
national law, but it should be recollected
that all international law originally re-
suited from the exercise of sufficient we'll
directed and intelligent force, and that
the world continues to move.
Time was when Great Britain regarded
the declaration of independence as an alb
surd and incendiary document and the
American people as proper prey for the
hangman on account of their reasonable
rebellion against the "mother country"
Doubtless Gems. Washington. Putnam and
Marion would have been executed as
traitors if they had unhappily fallen into
British hands during the early years of
the revolution. But since the surrender
of Lord CORVALLIS at Yorktown the
American doctrine of independence of
English leading strings, including arbi-
trary tea taxes, has, been rather substan-
TALLY recognized by the powers of the
world as law. The application of these
remarks to the question raised as to the
validity of the Monroe doctrine ia too
manifest to need exemplifcation.
But there will be no need to resort to
force. If the Salisbury government ar
rogantly declines to recede from it's nm.
tenable refusal to arbitrate the Venezuela
boundary question, the Salisbury govern
ment is doomed to disastrous and dis
crsditable end. The sober, thinking,
fair-minded people of England do not
want war with the United States any more
than the people of the United States want
war with Great Britain, and can be de.
pended upon to overthrow the ministry
that undertakes such an unholy, canssless
conflict.

If this is campaign plot or a wire
pulling scheme, the English people have
helped to make it so, for they have taken
five long months to respond to courte-
GUS note from Secretary Olney. The Lon
don press doubtless is now convinced
that there is nc politics in it, since we
find Senators Sherman and Lodge wing
with Senators Morgan and Voorhees, in
their support of President Cleveland's
proposition.
