Beware of the man who tries to
whitewash any kind of sin.
God has never tried to make man
who could please his neighbors
Have sanctified desires and God
will give you whatever you want
The man who wins heaven is the
one who is willing to lose this world.
The man who is satisfied with him
self is much disappointed with other
folks.
1t requires less philosophy to take
things as they come than to part
with them as they go.
He who labors with the mind gov
ems others; he who labors with the
body is governed by others.
No man ever made an i'll figure who
rightly understood his own talents,
nor a good one who mistook them.
The world is full of people who are
anxious to die happy, who are not try
ing very hard to help anybody to live
happy.
Hard words are like hailstones in
summer, beating down and destroy
ing what they would noun sh if they
were melted into drops.
Every age might perl APPS produce
one or two geniuses if they were not

Dickens affirms that "all good ends

be considered so at once and left

The human mind is always inexora-

human actions. 1t is only himself
that each man permits to act without

1t is fact that good many other

Reviews the Pullman strike and Defends

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, June 4.-Eugene
v. Debs has issued an official circular to
the local unions of the American Rail-
way union. In it he scores Judge Woods.
He reviews the Pullman strike and de-
tends the action of the order. The Gen.
eral Managers association is referred to
as the Nero of the strike, glorying in con-
hagration and death rather than permit
the efforts Of furnishing men, women and
children to succeed. He pictures Judge
Woods as one who carries out the Rus.
sian practice of denying trial by jury.
He says that it has come to the point in
the United States that the law OF injunc-
ton is the will of n despot and by the ex-
ercise of this Russian power American
Railway union officials go to prison, and
the hope is that by the exercise of this
power the American Railway union will
be crushed. He calls upon members of
the order to stand by it. The men who
suffer imprisonment for acts in tho strike
he predicts will yet be monumental.

Two steamers Come Together In "a Fog and
Three Persons Are Drowned.
ALPENA, Mich, June The big steel
steamer Norman and the Canadian
steamer Jack collided on Lake Huron off
Middle island in dense fog at O'Clock
in the morning. The Norman went, to
the bottom within two minutes. carrying
with her the following: Mrs. Reynolds,
of Bay City, wife OF the steward; Nels
Bernstene, wGtchman; Toney -; deck
hand, shipped mt Ashtabuln. The Jack
filled, and would have also sunk had it
not been for her cargo Of lumber, which
kept her afloat.
The survivors were picked up by the
steamer Sicken and brought here. Cap
tain Stratton, of the Norman, said: 1--WE
sighted the Jack twenty minutes before
the accident. She was then off our port
bow. / gave the Jack signal of one
whistle, which she answered. She then
disappeared. When l sighted her again
she was very close. 1 then gave one blast
of the whistle, but this time the Jack
answered with two blasts. L Immediate
ly put the Norman hard aport and
thought the Jack would pass all right.
Immediately after she doomed up close
under our port bow, showing her green
light. / heard her captain give the order
to put her hard starboard. Then she
struck up amidship with the horrible
crash"
The Norman was an 1870 ton vessel and
worth 100000 1t is feared that the cargo
of the Jack will become so watersoaked
that she will go down before she can be
found

SILVER ELEMENT IN EVIDENCE.

Taubeneck's View of What Will BE the
Result of the Convention.
1.-THE silver element of the party" said
Taubeneck, sis much more in evidence
now than the other wing, but this is ow-
ing to the fact that the silver movement
is being promoted by the machine OF the
party. Silver Democrats in Illinois are
not nearly so numerous as they seem. 1
think it may be safely estimated that full
ly one-third of the Democrats of Illinois
are gold men, and declaration for free
silver will drive these men out of the
Democratic party. The effect on the Re
publicans is not yet apparent, because
they are keeping quiet. But when the is.
sue is finally forced upon that party 1t
will certainly prove demoralizing. Ulti-
mately think the result will be that the
Peoples party will gather in all the free

1t is probable that there will be meet

SILVER DEMOCRACY
IN FORCE AT THE CAPITAL OF
THE PRAIRIE STATE.

Hinrichsen Confident of n Glorious Success
Explains Why Delegates Did Not Ar
rive Early-some of the Arrivais--Tau-
beneclS ON Hand Taking Notes.
SPRINGFIELD, Ills, June 5.-The pros
pect for large attendance at the Demo-
cratic state convention were not as bright
yesterday morning as the originators OF
the convention wished. The vast crowds
that had been expected all along had not
even begun TO arrive. This was accounted
for by the fact that many Legislators and
lobbyists, fearing jam at the hotels have
remained at home. Yesterday morning
no men of national reputation had ar
rived, and even local leaders from various
districts were few. Men who have at
tended conventions, Democratic or Re-
publican, in this city for the last twenty
five years predicted small attendance.
Chairman Hinrichson, of the Demo-
cratic state central committee, was still
confident that tho convention would DO a
glorious success The fact that few peo-
pie were here did not disturb him. He
said that there were no candidates to vote
for and it would DO useless for delegates
to come day or two in advance of the
convention.
Taubeneck "Happens Around"
He did not expect large arrivals to be-
gin before last evening. The farmers
all over the state were busy with their
time as possible. Then the weather in
Springfield was intensely hot, and the
delegates did not wish to spend any more
time in tho crowded hotels than they had
to. The hotels have all engaged in, adj
vance all rooms they have, and some OF
them have nothing but cots in halls left.
Among the arrivals was III. K. Taube-
neck, chairman of the National Populist
central committee, He refused to be in
terviewed, and would not even say what he
is doing here at this time. Ex-Congress-
man. at Large Andrew Hunter, of Paris,
is here, as also are ex-Judge Scales, OF
Chicago, and Dennis Hogan, of Geneva.
All are wearing blue ribbons on the lapels
of their coats bearing the inscription
''Free Coinage Of Silver on a Basis of 16'
toll Gold.
Matters Change by Nightfall.
But whatever the outlook in the morn
Ing by nightfall there was every indica-
ton that every county in the state would
be represented by full quota of dele.
gates. A largo number of visitors Is also
expected Sentiment among delegates sc
far seen is practically unanimous in favor
of free silver, and it seems that there will
not be much opposition to such resolu-
ton. Judge Goodrich, of Chicago, one OF
few Sound money" delegates, will oppose
the scheme to call national money con
vention. He says he can SEQ no sense in
such proceeding. The sudden appear
ahce hero of Taubeneck caused much
speculation. He is of course free silver
man. He said last night that he had nc
interest in the convention except as q
spectator. Certain managers Of the
Democratic party" he added, ''are now
trying to steal the Populist platform VI
He had no objection. In fact he is doing
all he can to encourage silver agitation
among the Democrats, for he feels certain
it will eventually disrupt the Democratic
party.
