ADEvILIsa OUTRAGE.

/ The long series or Outr6geS ana crimes
against property aud life which has be-
iouled the strike at the Buckeye gIas;
works a, Martins Ferry with trail OF
blood and murderous brutality thai
would disgrace a community Of savages,
received The csDsheaf yesterday in the
/ destruction Of the Office OF ths work:
oy dynamite
That murder, as well as destruction oil
property had been deliberately planned,
was evidenced by the efforts Of the
criminals before psrpstra,lng their
crime to find out in which
Of the buildings two rooms
The men were sleeping, and
even more circumstant.al.y 0y the fact
.dat the dynamite cartridge used had
been loaded with nails and slugs, which
added nothing 20 It's destructiyeness so
Gar as the building was concerned, but
would almost certainly have killed the
occupants bad it exploded in the room
where they were sleeping. As it was
the building was practically demolished
and the maa inside escaped only by q
miracle.
This mG-derous deviitry was the ell
max Of half dozen similar ontragss,
such as attempts 10 Ere the mill, TO
blow it up with dynamite, TO ssssssiaate
the manager, together with several
murderous assaults upon the non-union
men employed, which have been record
I'd in these columns lately, and which
20 20 make mp a record that has rarely
f.. ever been surpassed for DELHI
crate cr.mina,ity in the history
OF strikes. The result has been
that whatever Of public sym
pathy and respect the cause OF the
strikers may have had at the start has
been entirely lost or transferred, with
ten fold added, TO the side Of the com
Dauv aud It's men. who have been the
victims OF these dastardly and brutal
ouuagss.
The time has come when these out
RACES must DO summarily stopped. IN
the name OF civilization and the welfare
OF the community, which is the main
sufferer after the strikers themselves,
the law must be upheld and the muir
derous wretches who have broken 10
made 70 teal It's weight The
town Of Martins Ferry owes this
much TO itself, aud that would
DO but small compensation for the loss
fous Of the towns greatest industries,
which will be the result u the neglect
OF the authorities, IL President Seamon
has been quoted correctly in the state
meut that he will now abandon the
Buckeye works. We trust the stirring
uD public sentiment in Martins Ferry
has received IN the past twenty-four
hours will find another solution Of the
trouble and prevent this great loss TO
the community and neiRhborhood. But
this can only De done through the
prompt punishment Of the perpe-
traitors OF this latest damnabie out
rage, aud an acceptable guarantee that
the supremacy OF the Law in the future
will be maintained.

RECORD BREAKERS.
Remarkable Work OF tho Lotus Players
LII Might

It's gilt edged aggregation OF bow
lers-that Lotus team. To jump into
second place should be honor enough
for one evening, but it didn't satisfy
the Lotus boys. They went after
everything in sight, and they captured
about four-fourtns OF it. They played
q bang up game, aud il the season was
prolonged week or two, even the
NameleSs scalps might dangle at their
waists. Tue club sind into
second place, smashed the pre-
vious high team score Of the series,
an the players increased their averages
and one of them passed the leader for
individual honors.
The games were interesting but not
exciting. In the first the Lotus players
took the lead from the start aud the
Brownies did not show front at any
time during the game. ONeil led the
Lotus team and Hervey the Brownies

In the second game the Lotus i'm

TO the Lotus must have been very dis
couragiug 70 the mem bers OF the other
team. The Lotus players put nearly
one hundred pins In each frame, and
won by 2ll pins, one Of the worst de-

made upward Of l75 pins each. The

An exchange says the worst
enemies many mining sections
have among their own residents.
They pretend to know all about
all it's mines, their history, pro-
duct, probable future and their
value. Then if some enterpris-
ing ownes succeeds in getting
investors interested enough to
come and look at his claim these
"back -cappers" get in their
work. Instead of bringing out
the good points of the properties
they bring out all the bad ones
and give a "black eye" to any
sale in which they can have no
finger. If cyclone or an earth
quake could be induced to select
this class of people for general
destruction a great many more
mines could command capital
with which to operate. Even a
camp with plenty of good mines
and prospects will have uphill
work to advance if it contains a
few men of this kind. Any deal
they may be in on is all right,
but those with which they have
nothing to do are sure to get the
rough side of their tongue. Of
! course a stranger will be apt to
listen to an oil resident, VITO
tells him apparent facts concern
ing the mines Of his section, and
it is for this reason that men of
this kind can do so much harm.
Many a mining sale has fallen
through because of hints or in
uendos, from such people as this.
Men about to invest in mining
property are timid at best and
any cunningly devised story adj
verse to the mine is apt to find a
ready listner. No decent person
wants to see capitalists swindled
with worthless claims, of course
but it is usually those which
have merit which are attacked
by the black-mailers, back-cap
pers, or hoodoos to be found il
almost every mining camp.

AS the question of Equal Suf-
frage will be submitted to the
voters of Idaho in 1896, the ques-
ton is creating considerable in
terest, and test votes are being
held in Idaho by some of our ex-
changes. We believe this ques-
ton should have been left for
the ladies to decide, and not for
the men. In view of this belief
we desire to get the opinion of
the ladies of Custer county in
regard to this matter, and would
respectfully submit to the ladies
of Custer county the following
proposition as submitted to the
ladies of Washington county by
the Weiser Signal
We are doubtful if many of the
ladies of this county will take the
trouble to comply with the fol-
lowing, but we hope they will.
AS we have already stated, we
think women themselves should
decide the matter. If they de-
sire the right to vote at all cleo
tons, they should, by every legal
right, be granted suffrage. But
if they do no wish it, then it
should be voted down. In the
first place the election on this
question should be submitted to
women alone and men not allow
ed to vote; but as this cannot be
done, we are hoping that a gen
eral movement will be started to
ascertain the sentiment entire of
Idaho women and let the cleo
ton next year go accordingly.
And to the end of letting the
voters know the wishes of those
to be affected by the law, if en-
acted, it is the duty OF women to
make known their sentiments.
The MESSENGER is anxious to
become one of the mediums for
the expression of those senti-
ments. Therefore we ask every
lady in the county if she desires
to cast her ballot and enter
politics equally with men, to cut
out the following ballot, sign her
name and send the same to the
MESSENGER:

for 1896 on an independent silver
platform, but their efforts will
be directed toward choosing
electors pledged to the election
of personal preferences. The
idea Of nominating an independ-
emit free silver candidate prevail
ed until quite recently, but was
abandoned as a piece of bad
political policy, and failing to
secure recognition from either
of the national conventions the
silver men say they will seek to
hold the balance of power in the
next electoral college and pre-
pare one of the old parties to
bring forward q silver man in
order to secure the election.
The movement outlined is at
present confined to the Republi-
can party. The Democrats de-
clare that they fear that a similar
instruction may break out in
their own party, led by Southern
Democrats, allied with Western
men, on the money question.
This is considered very likely to
happen should the Democrats
call their national convention
first, and for that reason there
was much talk today of post
poning the Democratic conven-
ton till very late, in order to
give the free silver men an OPP
portunity to work in the national
Republican convention first.
Prominent Republican leaders
today assert that if it can be
shown conclusively in the next
national Republican convention
that the Western Republicans
have arranged any such pro
gramme for boiling the conven'
ton as that disclosed today, the
committee on credentials will re
fuse to seat the delegates unit
they pledge themselves to abide
by the work of the convention.

A special to the Denver News
from Washington says: "West-
ern silver Republicans have out
lined an interesting programme
to be pursued in the next nation
al Republican convention. A
few days ago Western Republi-
can of national prominence who
arrived in Washington disclosed
the programme of the silver men
in all it's details, and it is so
audacious as to startle the polit-
itical managers here. The plan
he says, was agreed upon at a
conference of Western senators
held last month. The senators
and other Western Republican
leaders who participated in the
compact represent the Western
silver states and profess to be
able to control the delegations to
the next national Republican
convention from those states.
These states are Montana, Idaho,
Wyoming, Washington, Oregon,
Colorado, Nevada, Utah, Cali
fornia and South Dakota. These
ten states are claimed solidly for
the agreement, and the states of
North Dakota and Nebraska may
yet join in the movement. 1t is
the purpose of the Western silv-
er Republicans to meet and
choose delegates to the national
Republican convention in the
regular form, and when the con-
vention meets to present the
name of Senator Cameron, of
Pennsylvania, for president. If
Cameron is not acceptable to the
Republicans the convention will
be asked to agree upon some
other representative free silver
Republican. If it refuses to act
upon the suggestion. the dele
gates from these ten Western
states say they will march out of
the convention in body, carry
ing with them as many other
free silver delegates from other
states as they can command.
They will wait upon the Demo
cratic convention not as dele
gates, because they cannot be
admitted as such, but as COM
mission knocking at the doors
and asking for the nomination of
a free silver Democrat, Senator
Morgan of Alabama preferred.
If the Democratic convention
fails TO act upon the demand the
silver men will abandon both old
parties. 1t is not now the in
tention of the managers of the
independent political movement
TO nominate a standard bearer
