KeKLNLEY-10 TO l.

We admire gratitude and honor
principle. Such being the case con
gratulations are to be extended to
the Silver Bryanites, for the i'm
mensity of their gush for Mr.. Nc
Kinley for saving them from official
decapitation. They anoint him and
bless him with extreme JUNCTION and
possibly would wash his feet in graf
itude for his overlooking both their
effort to defeat him and their non
concurrence with his principles.
They were originally Cleveland men
on gold standard, but deserted
their principle and joined the Bry.
antics, only to get spanked for their
desertion. Now, they are reaping a
rich reward from the man whose
throat they tried to cut. They are
very thankful, from newspaper men
down, for this permission of Mr. Nc
K inIey tcemain in office. They
can truly say, "'Boss, we did our
level best to whip you before. and if
you will contrive to furnish US with
Office and the sinews of war, we will
lick you next time, dead sure
Such is the phenomena of political
status. The men who elected Nc
Kinley can stand back and let the
Bryanites, who neither agreed with
him on currency or tariff, clean the
platter. 1t is remarkable state of
affairs, and will put voters on the
qui.U when they cast their next
ballots, otherwise Mr.. Mckinley
will continue l6 Bryanites in Office
in ratio of l Republican. Congress
should take some action in this mat
ter, and repeal continuance under
which such things are hidden or
permitted.

House, which met in pursuance of
an adjournment from a former day
The special object of the term was
to hear the contested election case

counsel were heard and the case
submitted to Judge Faulkner, who
withholds his decision until later
day. Messrs. Emmert and Pitzer
represented Mr.. Lamar while Mr..
Cushwa was represented by attor-
neys Walker and Westenhaver. On
Tuesday, owing to the absence Of
Judge Faulkner, an election for
special judge was held and Hon. T.
w. Brown was chosen. Judge
Brown entered several DEGREES in
chancery cases. Judge Faulkner
also holds under advisement the
case of W. J. Lambert VS.. Nicklas
Bros. & Co., in which the plaintiff
was represented by Messrs. Wisner
and Woods and the defendant be

THE GREAT STRIKE.

The efforts of the paid officials Of
labor organizations and especially
that OF coal, continue their agitation.
and TO such an extent, that an in
junction has been issued against them
by special Judge John Mason, OF the
Marion county Circuit Court. Since
then Judge Jackson, of the U. S.
Court, has issued an injunction, very
sweeping in its character, which, if
met on the return day thereof, will
bring forth the discussion that will
settle many novel points in thes I'M
happy struggles. 1t is time, however
that such legal discrimination, as is
proper and right, should have judi
cial action. There has not yet been
any actual blood shed in this state,
except at one point, Corinth. 1t is
estimated there are $4,000 miners at
work in Pennsylvania, West Vir-
ginia and Illinois, and that $4,000
miners struck in the five states, Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois, West Virginia and
Pennsylvania. This shows, if true,
that the majority is against the
strikers, and there is not likely TO
be coal famine forced upon general
industry and upon the people. We
hope it will speedily end. Let peace
and work go on.
