In 1887 Kilrain issued challenge to fight
John l.. Sullivan. who held the title OF
champion Of America, but the latter re-
fused to accept the challenge and for
feited the title OF champion. Jake then
issued a challenge to the world. the

The battle was fought at the Isle of st.

thirty minutes darkness came on and
the referee ordered the battle to be re-
sumed the following day. The men met
the next day, but by mutual consent the

SANDY HOOK. May 6.-Just abreast
OF ex-Mayor Grace's cottage at Mon
mouth Beach. N. j.. about one hundred
and fifty yards off shore, lies the oil
tank steamship Lumen ashore broadside
on to the Jersey coast.
She came ashore during the dense fog
early this morning. and both captain and
pilot disclaim responsibility for the ac-
cldent. both saying the other was in
charge.
The Lumen was quickly boarded by
Capt. Mullisan and his crew from Mon
mouth Beach Life-Saving Station, but
except carrying messages asking for as
sistance they could do nothing.
Capt Mulligan states that she lies in
about eight 'eet Of water at low tide,
that there are rocks all around her, and
that some trouble may be experienced
In floating her. as she draws eighteen
feet.
The Lumen lies about one mile south
OF the place where the steamship Wells

The weather Is mild and the surf very

Those Elusive Markets.

Farmers were assured over and
oyer again that if they would only
turn in and elect Cleveland and a
Democratic Congress prosperity on
scale meyer experienced by them
before would at once be at their doors
to overwheIm them with its blessing.
Cleveland and Democracy had a
scheme for opening up "the markets
of the world" to American farm
products that was certain to make
every farmer rich in almost no time.
Beguiled by the alluring prospect,
enough farmers were caught by these
assurances to insure the triumph of
Cleveland and Democracy IN gen.
eral. There have been two years of
it since. The first year showed up
poorly for the farmers; but then the
administration was so busy turning
out the "robber" Republicans to
put Democrats in their places that
allowances were possibly in order.
The second year, however, things
would be different, and "the mar
kets of the would" would be Just
fighting for American farm pro-
ducts, We now have seven months
of the second fiscal year to compare
with the like seven months of the
first fiscal year, but by some sort of
necromancy the exhibit made is just
the opposite of what should have
been expected. Instead of market
increase in the second year there has
been decided falling off in the de-
mands for American farm products
and the one conclusion to be reached
from the showing, therefore, is that
the farmer has been fooled.

Two graduates of the "Keeley
cure' institution were sentenced
last week by the Police Court of
Washington for drunkenness. Lap
ses from the effects of this "cure"
are not infrequent. Now that the
Court of Appeals has sustained the
validity of the "Inebriate Act" pas
sed by the late legislature, the next
question Zone of fact) will be as to
when inebriates will be cured. The
State is to spend 800 IN trying to
cure each drunkard, and it is esti-
mated that from 100000 to $780,
900 will be required for this amount
within the next year or two. AS a
new crop of inebriates is raised
through the effort of the saloons,
the law will be made to apply and
so the work will 60 merrily on. So
much money for schools, roads and
inebriates. The good work should
not stop mere. Laziness is almost
as serious an evil as drunkenness
and is the csuse of much loss in soci-
ETY. and the state, and is the founda-
ton of many misdemeanors and
crimes. Institutions for curing
laziness should be established and
the State should take up the noble
work of curing lazy men and women
at so much-say $4,000 a head.
This is not class legislation, because
if it was, it could not have gotten
through an overwhelming Demo-
cratic legislature. Kleptomania,
hypocrisy and the borrowing habit
are all social evils which should be
abolished if the State would prosper
and those who have acquired these
habits should be cured at the ex-
pense of those who earn their living
in the sweat of their faces and lead
honest and sober lives. If not,
why not?

SECRETARY MORTON, in order to
prevent the monthly grain reports
of the Agricultural Department
from getting to spectators in ad-
vance, has made changes in forty
four of the State agencies, and
further measures will be taken to
prevent leaks.-Last weeks Demo-
crat.
1t will be remembered that only
week or two ago the editor OF the
Democrat succeeded Capt. James
A. Hayden as State Statistical
Agent of the Agricultural Depart
ment.
1t was not even intimated that
Capt. Hayden's removal was for
cause other than that, in the ma
ture of things, his place was desired
by some hungry Democrat. 1t re-
NAMED, however, for the Democrat
to dispense the information that
the changes in the personnel of the
State agencies were caused by the
State Agents giving information
which they had officially received
to grain spectators in advance of
reporting the fact to the Depart
ment. The only inference that can
be deducted or drawn from this
editorial squib of the Democrat is
that Capt. Hayden was guilty of
the charge thus made.
The people of Garrett county are
too well acquainted with the high
character of Mr.. Hayden to believe
any such rubbish. and we should
not have noticed it were it not for
the fact that the editor of the Dem
0crat has become the beneficiary of
Mr.. Hayden's removal.
For downright meanness this
takes the cake and we hardly be-
lieved that the Democrat was capa-
BILE, especially under the peculiar
circumstances of this case, of trying
to besmirch the reputation and fair
name of an honorable, upright citi-
zen of Garrett county.

States has Knocked a hole in the
administrations estimates of reve-
nue. for the current year, by it's de-
cision on the income tax law.
The French proposal is to tax
titles according to the following
scale: Prince, 1000 francs; duke,
800 francs; marquis, 700 francs;
count 500 francs; viscount, 500
francs; baron, 400 francs; double
prefix, 200 francs; single prefix, LOO
francs.
1t is true that the constitution of
the United States forbids the confer
ring of titles on nobility, but what
does that matter when the cash is
needed? Just alter the constitution
to ct the circumstances, and see how
quickly lot of revenue could be
collected France is republic, and
if she can endure an assortment of
princes, dukes and barons, why
cannot the United States? This
country should charge higher rate
than the French schedule. 1t
should require the Prince of Pitts
burgh, for instance, to pay at least
$40, 900 for his original patent, and
$500 as an annual tax. The Duke
of Allegheny, the Marquis of Nc
Keesport, Count Sewickley, Wis
count Sharpsburg, and the Baron of
Soho, for example, could fall in line
with properly graduated prices.
Perhaps much better plan would
be to sell these and other patents of
nobility at public auction in the first
instance, to remain hereditary in
the family of the purchaser so long
as the annual taxes are paid. On
default of the payment the sheriff
could sell the title, after due public
notice.
The vast extent of the United
States offers a wide field for the ex-
plotting of this scheme. If the
gentlemen whose duty it is to see
that the country is provided with
revenue should hesitate about adopt
ing the plan here hastily sketched,
they might begin by taxing the hon
orarY titles of Colonies and Majors,
so numerous in some sections of the
country.

nomination. This paper was the
first to breach the subject of his
candidacy, and to-day two-thirds Of
the Republican voters in the State
have made up their minds to support
Mr.. Lomndes. By the time the
convention meets we presage the
opinion he will be the choice. and IN
November next we believe he will be
triumphaHtly elected.
Mr.. Lowndes is inently fitted
for the position and his administra-
ton of the affairs of our State will
reflect credit not only upon himself
but upon his party and the whole
people.
