High-handed Outrage.

Farmers Voice.
Last week a high-handed assault
upon law and order was committed
in Chicago by one of our great cor
porations. The officials of one street
railway company Matched the theory
that all the street car rails belonged
to the public, attempted in accord
ance with this theory, to run one Of
their cars over the tracks of another
company, which assembled an army
of 500 employees and smashed the
trespassing car into splinters, break
ing fthe peace and defying all au-
thority. Whether or not the often
sive company had the right to run
its car over the track of another
company is not for US to say. But
if it had no such right, it is clear
the other company had no right to
take the law into it's own hands,
bleck travel and create a riot. But
it was permitted to do these things
in the presence of the police because
it was a POWERFUL CORPORATION. II
,oorkingmen had been guilty of such
an outrage they would have beer
shot down by the police or the mill
tia. 1t is this sort of inequality O
the enforcement of law that create
contempt for government and fOs
tiers anarchy.

HANGED TIES, HISLOVE.
Strange Ordeal Brought to Light by A
COnlessiOU.


Confession.
RAMIRONA, Tex July 4.--The mys-
terry of the hanging Of Albert Black
man was fully explained to-day,
when his fiancee, Miss Bessie Har-
ris, made full confession in court.
She said that Blackman, who was a
well-to-do young farmer, had been
counting her for some time in oppo-
sition to the wishes of her parents.
Her father and mother did not OBJ
ject to the young man on account
of any of his habits. Finding that
they could not change her affection
for Blackman by threats they adopt
ed 2. more certain method and COM
menced a systematic attack upon her
jealous nature. They told her Black
man was simply making her ridicu-
lous and that he was engaged to an
other girl. She gave him no chance
to explain away the reports her
parents had furnished of him and
did not even mention that she sus-
pected him Of infdelity.
At her fathers suggestion, she re-
quested Of Blackman that he give
her test OF his love by letting her
hang him, promising to cut him
down in time to save his life. Black
man was desperately in love with
the girl, and he readily submitted to
the test. On the night of the MUIR
der she took = long walk with him
and lured him to a lonely spot, where
he, father was in hiding with rope.
Excusing herself for a moment, she
procured the rope, and returning,
placed it about Blackman's neck.
She says he had little fear of the
result, as he felt sure she did not
have strength enough to pull him
from the ground.
After the rope had been placed
over the limb and drawn taut her
father appeared and he and the girl
pulled Blackman from the ground
and tied the rope. The poor fellow
struggled terribly, and she would
have cut him down, but her father
mentioned the mythical other young
woman and her heart hardened to
ward the lover who was slowly
strangled to death. After the body
became rigid she united the rope
and lowered the body to the ground
Even then she felt no pangs of re-
morse, but with the assistance Of
her father arranged the body anC
rope so that it would appear to have
been a case of suicide.
Her confession caused apronounc
ed sensation, and there was talk o.
lynching the parents of the girl
This was avoided by the promptnes
of the officials, who, immediatel!
after her confession, placed then
under arrest and spirited them away
The girl has also been arrested on &
charge of murder.

Free Silver q Moral Issue.
The NoU York Mercury

fTOm 1nc new 1OIk mercury.
There is nothing funny in Senator
Stewards proposition that the destruc-
ton of silver coinage is reducing the
number of marriages. Prudent per-
sons do not marry, as a rule, unless
they have some prospect for self-sup-
port; and the proportion of marriages
is, therefore, pretty fair guide to the
financial condition of the people and
the general average of comfort among
the masses.
Gold mOnOmetallism involves strin-
gency, depression and the grindstOne
of hopeless and poorly requited laoor
for the wOrkingman, the farmer and
the tradesman.
Free silver coinage, on the other
hand, by assuring q sufficient supply
of money for all the needs of industry,
and by making the American people
Independent Of British gold monopoly,
would foster the interests of labor
promote the general welfare, encour-
age matrimony and prevent the growth
of immortality inevitably attendant
upon q decrease in the number OF
marriages. Free silver is, therefore
not merely q financial and economic
but also q moral issue.

WHAT THEY ARE,

A gentleman of a methodical habit,
who had adopted the practice of re-
tanning a copy Of every prescription
issued by the family physician, be-
came interested as the time went on,
to note that the same ingredients
were pretty certain to be prescribed
at some point of the treatment of
every case. For a poor appetite, or
a sore throat, for restlessness which
disturbed the baby's sleep, and for
troubles which beset the aged grand
parents, the favorite remedy was
always turning up, although slightly
modified from time to time and used
often in conjunction with others.
His family physicisn had ever beer
a successful practitioner: and when
another was consulted, care had al
WAYS been taken to obtain the ser
vices of some one eminent for skill
and reputation. Still the frequent
recurrence of the favorite formula
was a marked circumstance. One
day our friend happened to observe
that the formula of q certain adver-
tised remedy was Identical with the
latest prescription he had received
from his own physician, and in some
surprise lhe stated the case to him.
The family doctor, after listening to
what he had to say, replied: 1.-The
case is about this way: Whenever
there is disturbance of the functions
of the body, no matter of what ma
ture, it is pretty certain to be ac-
companied by a arrangement of the
digestive organs. When they are
ali right the patient gets well. That
particular formula that you have
observed me to write more aud more
frequently is the result of an age OF
careful experiment, and is pretty
generally agreed upon now by all
educated physicians who keep ny
with the times. The discovery Of the
