Republican, silver or no silyer.-Hailsy

Dubois did well when he voted against
the tariff bill, and is to be praised for
the stand he took. Senator Shoup
showed his weakness by keeping silent.

1t seems quite clear that eastern

will not be benefited by their downfall

opposition to MIR. Dubois in this state.

Milwaul.ee's Tieup Complete.

MILWAUKEE, May 5-The street railway
strike assumed y more serious aspect last
night. Every car barn in the city was sur
rounded by n large crowd, which stoned
the buildings, and in some places drove of
the police who had been detailed to guard
the barns. The mobs were made up Of strike
sympathizers. Strikers themselves took nc
part in the demonstrations. At all of the
barns mobs numbering from 5000 to 5000
were gathered. At each the non-union
men who took the strikers places were as.
saulted This morning all the electricians
in the city, about 800, walked out. They
were followed by all the men employed in
the repair shops of the street railway,
about hundred in all. The tieup this
morning is complete.

Indiana convention will be held at Indian
apolis the one city Of all the land that stood
unmoved when, in the May of 1892 the
magic of the name of Blaine was sweeping,
apparently with irresistible force, across the
continent The convention this week will
be an important one, for the reason that,
following the custom of twelve years stand
ing, General Harrison will be invited to ad.
dress the assembled delegates. If the General
accepts the invitation and Il stampede fol
him is begun, it is conceded that nothing but
his own most relentless opposition could stoI
it. This is why the friends of Mckinley art
apparently SO anxious about the outcome.

European countries exporting their criminal
and depnyed subjects upon our shores is
generally admitted, and Mr.. Huth's lucid
and fOrceful presentation of the case, a brief
synopsis Of which is published to-day, brought
the matter home 10 many in such a light that
will make them think seriously. 1t has
become a very serious subject, and while the
order he represents does not aim to prescribe
anyone who is able to appreciate the liberty
vOuchsafed under our laws and who is willing
to aid in keeping our country up to the high
standard raised by its founders, every good
citizen, whether native born or natunlized
will say amen to its efforts to have such laws
passed as will keep out the paupers and
criminals who have come 10 rs in drOves and
are filling our courts with murder cases.

HOLMES AWAITING HIS DOOM.
II Is Not Believed the Condemned Man
VIII Attempt Suicide.

VIII Attempt Suicide.
PHILADELPHIA, May oh. II. Holmes.
the convicted murderer, has now less than
two days to live, as Sheriff Clement says
the execution will occur about 10 o'clock
Thursday morning. The sheriff asserts
that there wi II be no sensational scene on
the gallows If Holmes has anything to
say it must be said from his cell before
the march TO the scaffold. About fifty
persons, including officials and newspaper
men, will witness the hanging although
thousands are straining every nerve to be
present, and as high as $500 has been of
fered for a single ticket
The prophecy that Holmes would cheat
the gallows by committing suicide has nc
promise of fulfillment Strict watch is
kept upon him, but he seems doolle and
resigned. Whether or not his apparent
contrition is genuine, and whether he
will die a,convert to the Roman Catholic
faith, Is largely n matter of conjecture.
Father Daley, his spiritual adviser be-
Eeves the contrltion is genuine. The
priest visits Holmes every day, and will
administer the last rites of the Catholic
church shortly before the hanging On
Thursday morning mass will also be said
for him In the Church of the Annuncia-
tion.
The scaffold Is ready, but will not be
erected until Thursday morning. 1t will
be placed in the center of the corridor on
which the condemned mans cell faces,
and, as usual, will be heavily draped in
black.
