VILLA IL, ENGLISH.

The death OF William H. English at
bis home in Indianapolis Friday was
not unexpected, yet the news will be re-
ceived with regret all over the land. The
deceased was native of Indiana and re-
mained a resident of that state during
the more than seventy-three years of his
life. Mr.. English has been prominently
known for years, but he cannot be
classed among the great men of the
country. He received liberal educa-
,ion and during the early years of his
life was quite active in the politics of his
state and section. From 1858 to 1861 he
was representative in congress, and for
the same period one Of the regents of the
Smithsonian institute at Washington.
During that period he was the author of
what was known as the "English bill'' in
connection with the admission of Kan
sas, and this gave him quite reputa-
ton. In 1880 be WAS the candidate on
the democratic ticket for vice president
with Gen. Hancock
Mr. English had long been engaged in
the banking business and was reported to
be wealthy. He VS. a good citizen of
his state and of the United States, and
his death Will be felt in the city he has
so long made his home.

BUTTE L. BOSTON.

The mines of the Butte & Boston
company have been closed down and, as
consequence, its stock has dropped
from Sl3 to 81 and fraction within
couple Of weeks. The brokers and finan-
clal papers i'll the east, especially in
Boston and New York, are anxiously
discussing the reasons for the slump,
but none of them seem to know just
where they are at. Some attribute it to
the alleged gross mismanagemcnt of
former officials: others, to speculative
move to get control Of the large block of
stock held by the Davis estate, which,
it is expected, will soon be distributed,
aHa others, to the fact that the Ana
conda company is suing the Butte &
Boston for a large sum for ores alleged
to have been unlawfully mined.
Whether any or all of these factors are
responsible for the changed situation we
do not know: it is reasonable to believe
that the shut down would affect the
stock, but not to the extent quoted. One
thing is certain, the Butte & Boston
owns valuable properties in Butte, and
if its affairs are conducted as they
should be, on mining principles, an ex
cellent showing will be made. A word
of advice: those who can afford to in
vest in the stock at present figures and
hold on for a few months will make a
small fortune. Properly administered
the Butte X Boston is all right.

owns some valuable mining ground in
Butte, part of which is developed to a

A GENUINE DEMOCRAT.

GENUlNE DcAoOnAA. 4.
Among the democratic political wrecks
to which the Cleveland administration
has contributed and to which it points
with pride and looks with satisfaction
the most conspicuous are the de-
feat of Wat Hardin for governor of Ken
lucky and the almost assured defeat of
10 Blackburn for senator from the same
state. While the power of the president
welded through federal office holders
was successful in electing republican
governor in safely democratic state, it
was not strong enough to unruffle the
democracy of the defeated candidate or
to lose to him the respect and admir-
alton of his political associates. In a
Kentucky exchange just at hand, the
editor who is also member of the legls-
lature has this to say:
"What an unseltish, unsecured nature
has Wat Hardin! After canvass as ex-
hausting as it could be made by inces-
SAINT labor, by the naggings and deser-
tlons of false friends, by treachery that
wrung his soul to it's very foundations,
he was murderously knlfed in the dark
ness of the voting booth, because he was
brave enough to avow his honest senti-
ments and not politician enough to dis
guise them or change them. Without
murmur, simply smiling and saying: 81
have done my whole duty, my conscience
is clear, l m too proud to whine and
too good to cuss," Wat Hardin again
took up the burden of every day citizen
ship and struggle for daily bread Now,
mark what happened Last week there
was special election held in Nelson.
The legislative member from that county
had died before commencing his duties.
1t was believed that Nelson county de-
mocracy needed arousing, and it was
known that the republicans were thor
oughly organized. Immediately the
party leaders turned to Wat Hardin
the man who had been abused, villified
and crushed as no other democratic
nominee in all the state of Kentucky
had ever been stigmatized beforehand
said: "You are the man to help us. Go
down and talk to the democrats of Mel
son county" His reply was: 81 have
never yet failed to answer the call
of my party. / will CO." He went,
made a great speech at Bardstown,
and Nelson county sends demo-
cratic member to the Legislature by an
increased majority. The last speech of
the great campaign of 80 and the first
speech of the still greater campaign of
'96, were made by Wat Hardin. AS
saw nim cheerfully, cheerily and alto
gether unconplainingly last week devot-
ing three days to the party that had
humbled his hopes and wrecked his am
bitions in my secret soul | took off my
hat to him and said, You are a man.
Can anything higher be said?'
As for 10 Blackburn, he is still holding
his own in the struggle and, if he should
90 down, he has the satisfaction of know
ing that he will remain in the senate as
long as Cleveland occupies the executive
chair.

EN-GOV, PATTISON.

The democrats of Pennsylvania have
formally announced the name of ex-Gov,
r. E. Pattison Of that state as candi
date for the nomination for president
The gentleman has not been prominently
before the public for some years and we
do not remember how he stands on the
financial question, but in all other re-,
epects be will fill the bill. His ability is
of high order and his integrity ls I'M
questioned, AS governor of Pennsylva
MIA he made an enviable record. though
he was too honest for the spoilsmen.
Should Mr.. Pattison be nominated on q
silver platform he could be reasonably
sure of carrying the west, for he is in
absolute sympathy with the people on
the subject of Pacific railroads. In 1887
or 1888, as one of the United States com
missioners for the Pacific roads, he made
a minority report, that showed up the
infamous conduct of the management OF
those corporations and is we'll remem.
bered, not only by those he exposed, but
alec by the people of the west, and the
Pacific states especially. We repeat, il
he is all right on the financial question
the democrats may name as good a. mar
for the candidacy, bat they cannot name
better one than Robert E. Pattiaon.
