Newspapers and JurIes.

The Appellate division of the Su
preme Court ruled in the McLaugh
lin case that if an honest intelligent
jury is to be obtained to
try criminal case that has excited
great public interest men who have
heard and read of the case and who
have even formed and expressed an
opinion as to the guilt or innocence
of the accused must necessarily be
selected. The opinion declares:
All intelligent men are accustomed
to read newspapers. and many form
more or less definite opinions or i'm
pressions as to the matters therein
contained, and express such opin-
ions or impressions to others Only
the ignorant classes fail to read the
newspapers from day to day.
1t is apparent, therefore, that
when men are called as jurors to sit
in an important criminal case, "A case
that has excited great feeling and in
terest in the community, few honest,
intelligent men will be able to say
that they have not read or heard OF
the case and have not formed or ex-
pressed an opinion or impressions as
to the guilt Of the defendant who is
being tried.
The question is not whether man
has formed or expressed an opinion,
but whether he can render an impair

LABOR LEADERS
KICK OF G. 0. P.
The Republican Heads of Two
Big Trade Unions Will Go
With Democracy.
MANY OTHERS ARE FLOPPING.
President Thomas Says werkmen Are
Bitter Toward Hanna.

President l.. X. Thomas, of tn,
Pattern Makers association of Nortl
America, and President Frank Whit,
of the Bridge and Structural Iron
Workers union, of Pittsburg, boil
lifelong Republicans, have announced
that they cannot vote with the Re
publican party, and are enthusiast
cally working for Bryan and Sewal
and the free silver cause. Both gen
tlemen say that the members of the
organization with which they are of
ficially connected are deserving the
Republican party in great numbers
and in fact it is difficult to find al
organized workman left in this city
who will not vote the Democratic
ticket in November.
Mr.. Thomas returned yesterday
from Cleveland, where he had beer
called to advise with the labor Off
Gals of that city about the general
sympathy strike to aid the striking
employees of the Brown Hosting
company, which the officials dis
countenanced. Mr.. Thomas said
while in Cleveland ! took the
trouble to ascertain the feeling
among the working classts with re
spect to the issues of the campaign.
j found very bitter antagonism to
Mark Hanna in the city, and among
the working people | could not find
a single man who said he would vote
for Mckinley Hanna is cordially
disliked for his many rebufts to or
gained labor, and nothing that he
may say or do now, while trying to
elect his man Mckinley, can placate
the working people of that city. /
expect to see the city of Cleveland
swept by the Democratic candidates.
Every delegate in the Central La
Dor union, body composed of 90
600 organized workmen, is for free
silver, and will vote the Democratic
ticket. This is time when parti-
sanship should not influence the
workingman when he is voting. /
have been Republican ever since |
had vote, but | cannot stay with
the party when it permits the pluto
Gratis to run it. This time the inter-
est of every wage Garner in the coun-
try is with the Democratic party,
which has east out the element which
controlled the Republican conven-
tion. / hope Bryan and Sewall will
carry every state in the Union, and
it would not surprise me in the least
if they captured many of the eastern
states counted in the Republican
column. 1t is contest of the mass
es who live from hand to mouth
against the money power, and the
masses will win"
President White concurred in the
views of Mr.. Thomas, and said that
Republican workmen generally in
Pittsburg, like himself. were desert
ing their party, as they could not
stand the declarations of the st.
Louis platform in favor of the gold
standard, and those who were not
favorable to the free coinage of sill
yer before were easily convinced that
their hope is in the enactment into
laws of the pledges made by the
Democratic perty.

We live in country of which the
principal scourge is stomach-trouble.
1t is more widespread than any
other disease, and, very nearly, more
dangerous.
One thing that makes it so dan
gerous is that it is so little under
stood.
If it were better understood, it
would be more feared, more easily
cured, less universal than it is now.
So, those who wish to be cured
take Shaker Digestive Cordial, be-
cause it goes to the root of the
trouble as no other medicine does.
The pure, harmless, curative herbs
and plants, of which it is composed
are what render it so certain and, at
the same time, SO gentle a cure.
1t helps and strengthens the stom-
ach, purifies and tones up the sys-
tenn.

THE TITAN OF CHASMS.
A Mile Deep, ID Miles Wide, 217 Miles
Long. and Painted Like a Flower.

The Grand Canon of the Colorado
River, in Arizona, is now for the first
time easily accessible to tourists. A
regular stage line has been establish
ed from Flagstaff, Arizona, on the
Atlantic & Pacific Railroad, making
the trip from Flagstaff to the most
imposing part Of the Canon in less
than II hours. The stage fare for the
round trip is only $1,000, and meals
and comfortable lodgings are provid-
ed throughout the trip at reasona-
BILE price. The view of the Grand
Canon afforded at the terminus Of the
stage route is the most stupendous
panorama known in nature. There
is also trail at this point leading
down the Canon wall, more than 200
feet vertically, to the river below.
The descent of the trail is grander
experience than climbing the Alps,
for in the bottom of this terrific and
sublime chasm are hundreds of noun
tains greater than any of the Alpine
range.
A book decribing the trip to the
Grand Canon, illustrated by many
full-page photographs, from especial
engravings and furnishing all needful
information, may be obtained free

The Journalist Evangelist, Declares
That Bryan and Free Silver
Will Prove Winners.

The celebrated Rev. Sam w. Small,
preacher, journalist, lecturer, politi-
clan and philosopher, who is so favor
ably known in this city, stopped over
at Cincinnati the other day enroute
to Germantown, Ohio, where he adj
dressed the people for week.
He had just returned from the In
terstate Chautauqua, at Salem, Neb.
'sHow about your crowds and poll
ties out West" he was asked by a re-
porter.
"We had from 5000 to 5000 people
daily on the grounds from Nebraska,
Kansas and Missouri. l lectured one
Gay on 16 to and never failed to get
great and Spontaneous applause when
l referred to Bryan and free silver
Hon. Charles j. Greene, distinguish
ed Republican orator. came down from
Omaha and spoke for Mckinley, pro-
lection, gold and all that, but he could
not get cheer from the crowd: not a
ripple except from a few clacquers
around the stand placed there for the
purpose.
Talk about a campaign of education
to those people and they will laugh at
you. They are already educated, and
no chestnuts go with them. They
are not living on chestnuts this year.
We had 1853 tents full OF people, who
remained all the meeting. Our regu-
lar physician who has always been a
Republican, announced himself for
free silver. The Republicans are pre-
pairing to make desperate effort to
take Nebraska away from Bryan, but
they will ingloriously fail. Bryan
will carry every western and southern
state sure. / talked with one of the
best posted politicians of Indiana at
st. Louis, and he said that state was
certain for Bryan. The whole coun-
try seems to be moving that way. l
spoke at Hopkinsyille, KY, few
nights ago, and have heard Of over
20 converts. i have been speaking
and writing for free money for Is
years, and think | can hold my own
with any gold man before the people.
l shall enter the campaign for Bryan
Sep. 1, and be in the thick of the
fight until the election. / am going
to be at Madison Square Garden, New
York, to hear Bryan's speech of ac-
ceptance and consult with the Ma
tional Committee. That will all be
settled between Sewall and Watson.
Without being behind the scenes l see
intimations of every thing coming
around all right. The committees
will act in time, and the Populists
will stand for Bryan in solid phalanx. "

The Largest Woman In West Virginia
from Sun Stroke.

Mrs. John Waters, the largest
woman in Fayette county and most
probably .the largest in West vir-
ginia, died last week from the effects
of the intense heat Mrs. Waters
weighed 400 pounds and had refused
many good offers from the managers
of shows and museums. She pre-
ferred to stay at home and devote
her time to her family. BY her death
fifteen children are left motherless.

Can't stand IN migrate

Every good newspaper has enemies.
Some are worse than others. The
man who owes a newspaper an hon
est debt and does not pay it can be
counted as an enemy. The man
who wants an office and complains
because the newspapers will not
champion him in preference to all
Others. is pretty apt to be cast
as an enemy. The man who wants
to dictate TO paper and is not al
lowed to do so, is sure enemy. The
sneak and coward fears newspapers,
and consequently do not like them.
But of all men that a newspaper
should dislike, it is the man whom
IL has befriended and assisted, and
who proves the migrate and turns
his back on the newspaper after Sc
curing all from it possible. We can
respect in certain degree an open
and avowed enemy, but an migrate,
never.
