A Hot Fight WnEed.
The Last Campaign.


The campaign of 1892 presented a some
what unprecedented feature inasmuch as
the national republican committee had to
step in and use it's high authority in set
tlirg a contention between the warning
factions of the District republicans. To
settle the difficulty the national body ap-
pointed Perry H. Carson and A. II. S. Davis
a committee to call a meeting jointly for
the purpose of reorganZng the central
committee and thereby insuring a peaceful
and satisfactory election. Carson and
Davis could not agree as to the methods
to be followed in carrying out the wishes
of the national committee. Carson fol-
lowed in every detail the instructions of
the national body, but Mr.. Davis called an
independent meeting and the fight was
again transferred to the national conven-
ton.
Messrs. Carson and Gleeson were claim
snts on the one side to the rights for seats,
while Messrs. Simon Wolf and W. Calvin
Chase were the contestants. The Minneap-
oils convention declared in favor Of the
seating of Carson and Gleason.
The present summer will doubtless see a
great amount of preliminary work on the
part of the various republicans who wish
to 20 as delegates to the national republj-
can convention next year. The claim is
made that a sufficient strength will be Sc
cured among the local republicans by the
opposition to Messrs. Carson and Gleason
and the men who have been identified with
them in mana ging the party interests here
to accomplish their defeat next year. But
those who nave watched the course nf po-
ltical events in this city for the past six
teen years are of the opinion that Messrs.

How 1t Came About.

How 1t Came About.
"And how did this come about? A band
of the true-hearted assembled in those bit
ter days which tried mems souls, struck
their thoughts deep into the problem of
human social life and evolved the grand
notion, to be set forth in the noble, burn
ing words which you have just heard; that
the great Creator of men had made all
free and equal, and endowed them with
certain rights which there was no gain
saying-the rights including life and the
pursuit of happiness, and, above all else,
the right of liberty: the right to think
without regard to existing and accepted
conditions: the right to act without regard
to those conditions; the right, in short, to
be men, free to declare themselves as such
and to live in that separate and indie
pendent station to which the laws of nature
and of natures God entitle Them.
DO you ever stop to think what this
meant to those men and what it means to
US? Reflect moment. The idea or the
divine right of kings was as familiar and
as sacred at that time as the idea of re-
ligion itself, the idea of an all-observing,
all-gcverning, all-judging Creator To run
counter to this idea was, in common ac
ceptation, scarcely less sacrilegious than
to deny the existence and supervision of
God himself.
But there was kindled to flame in the
hearts of those brave, and conscious,
and reliant men spark as divine as that
L
himself In a flash there broke upon the
world and upon mankind a new light-a
light bespeaking for the men, not only of
that time but of all time, assurance of
dearer and a higher and a nobler life than
had as yet been even dreamed of. The old
ideas and the old forms were shattered as
by a giants blow. The old darkness was
dispelled as by the lightning's flash. The
old slavery of mind and heart was stricken
down as by the stroke of some irresistible
swordsman. sent by Providence itself to
cut asunder forever the old knots of ig-
norance, the old mesh of superstition, the
old web Of subservierce and slavery.
Thenceforth man, who had been wandering
in the valley of the shadow of civic death,
saw with illumined eyes that civil land
scape from whose shores neither the stream
Of the old Jordan nor the cold flood of
death itself could fright him.

Tariff Reform Wages.

The Democrats are trying to make
it appear that business is better and
employees wages are improving. That
is a matter Of comparison. For in
stance an Ohio paper says:
While in Springfield Tuesday last
we heard Gen. Young, Of Youngstown,
speak OF this matter. A Mr.. Williams
had just completed making up the
pay rolls for two weeks in one Of the
large manufacturing concerns in
Youngstown. For the two weeks the
employees were to receive something
over $4,000. Gen. Young said to
Mr.. Williams, "How much would
these employees have received in 1892
for two weeks and for the same
work." Mr.. Williams figured short
time and replied, "Between $4,000
and $55, 000." These men had but
lately received an increase in wages,
but still they did work for $4,000
now for which in 1892, under the
tariff law, they would have
received from $50, 900 to $55, 900.
Our esteemed contemporary ap-
pears to think it very doubtful
whether these men who are receiving
from $1,000 to $4,000 less a fort
night for labor than they received in
1892 can be fooled into the belief that
they are receiving more. So do we.

There is no longer any question but

Of Morris and Geary counties, which

this committee will refuse to carry

Dickinson county and the central

opposing the calling Of a Republican
convention. Such report is hardly

on each Of the five charges made
against him he may DO sent to prison

Probably the most conclusive evil
dence that J. r. Burton is to be the
coming Republican caucus candidate
for U. S. senator is the fact that all

near the goal nothing too mean could
be said Of him but now that they see

abuse to him and are trying to lit
