HazletOn, Pa. September 10
Arrangements are under way for Il

are being made to have Eugene V. Debs
and other prominent labor men address
it.
All the miners in the middle coal field
will be asked to attend and it is estimat-
ed that 25.000 miners will be present.
The arrangements for the prosecution
by the Austrian Societies, who have tax
en- up the case, have been brought to a
pause by Gen. Gobines order forbidding
the arrests Of the prospective defen-
damts. Several meetings were held but
it was finally determined to let the mat
ter rest in abeyance until after Coroner
Bowman has held his inquest and reach
ed a verdict. That official has not yet
fixed date for the inquiry, but thinks
it will be some time in the early part Of
next week. Fifty or sixty witnesses will
be examined, including Sheriff Martin
and a number Of his deputies and some
Of the miners. No matter what the YER
dict may be the case will be carried into
the courts, but no details have been ar
ranged.
The strike conditions were not ma
terially changed to-day.
The 500 men employed at the Beaver
Brook Colhery of Dodson and Company
met last night and decided to demand
an increase of 10 per cent in wages and
the sale OF powder at 50 per keg instead
OF at $2.75. If the company refuses they
too, will join the striking army. The
Beaver Brook men were out few DAVIS
ago but returned to work yesterday.

five prisoners were dragged q distance
Of 200 feet to a tree where their bodies
wer suspended. 1t is said Levi, Jennings
and Schulter were dead before they reach
ed the place. Death resulted from hang
ing in the case of Gordon and Andrews.
Justice of the Peace Charles Loswell
held an inquest over the five bodies this
morning.
Versailles, Ind, Sept. 15.--This has
been the most exciting day in the history
of this city. The bodies of five men,
who had been lynched during last night,
were found hanging together to the
same tree near the Jail this morning.
For years southern Indiana has been
afflicted with lawless gangs. The rail
ways and express companies broke up
the depredations Of these gangs along
their lines and latterly they have prey
ed upon the Citizens. The citizens have
taken the law into their own hands in
this locality before, but never to such an
extent as to-day. The Reno brothers

diana, twenty years ago and the Meyer
gang. three in number, were strung up
together at Shoals, Indiana, II years
y
ings of one ut Il time, but the job lot"
of five to-day breaks the record
That an unusual state of feeling ex-
listed is shown by the determination of
the mob. which led it TO the ferocity Of
first killing three of the men in the JAIL
and then dragging the living and dead
together and hanging them to the same
tree. 1t is notable, too. that there was
no outrage that usually rouses mob s
vengeance-no murder was charged a.
ganst the victims-but their death was
decreed because of long and exasperat-
ing suffering from robber;es. some of
which were accompanied by torture of
victims. The excitement Of the day was
not iessened by the suppressed hints tina :;
more objects Of the peoples wrath would
he made to suffer in the same way.
THE GOVERNOR GETS HOT.
Indianapolis. Ind, Sept. 1J.--Gov.
Mount has sent the following to the
sheriff of Ripley county:
Wire me at once the particulars of
lynching that has occurred in your coun-
ty. ] further direct that you proceed
Immediately with all the power you can
command to bring to justice all parties
guilty Of participation in the murder
Of the five men alleged to have been
lynched. Such fawlessness is intolerable
and all the power of the State, if neces-
sary. will be vigorously employed for the
arrest and punishment of all parties inn
plicated.

THE GINZBERG CASE.

position in which John Ginzberg, an
American citizen, finds himself in Russia
Governor Richards says:
"Referring to your letter of the 21st in.
slant, relative to the matter Of John Ginz,
berg, placed before your department in
May, 1895, will say that the information
conveyed comes too late for practical use
My term of office expires Jan. a., 1897.
and can give the matter no further con
sideration other than publicity through
the press, which may lead to some steps
being taken by the friends of Mr.. Ginz-
berg.
at is to be regretted that an American
citizen, who has committed no other
crime than to renounce his allegiance tc
his native land Gas all n%aturalized citizens
are compelled to do) should be trans.
ported to Siberia, with all that such pun,
>ishment implies, simply because he is
destitute of funds to take him to some
more hospitable land. The badge Of
American citizenship, it seems to me
ought to protect a man from such a fate
regardless of his indiscretion in visiting
the land of his BIRTH"

A MONSTER REVIVAL.
New York Ministers Propose to Have 1t
Sweep the Whole Country.

New York Ministers Propose to Have 1t
Sweep the Whole Country.
More than 100 ministers in greater
New York, who have been interested in
the Moody and Sankey meetings, have
decided to use their efforts to bring
about the greatest evangelical awaken
ing that city has ever known.
A call has been issued to all the mill
listers in the city to open the doors Of
their churches every night for revival
services. 1t is expected that there will
he more than 800 meetings a night
and that the result will be the ex-
traordinary of modern times. 1t is
hoped to arouse not only the great me-
tropolis, but to have the movement IA
diate il every direction.
1t is hoped that it will join with thai
now in progress in Philadelphia and
sweep over the whole country. Every
denomination and nearly every promi'
nent pastor in New York and Brooklyn
is interested in this movement. Mr..
Moody has said that the time is ripe for
it. The Rev. DR.. Wilbur j. Chapman,
who is among the first two or three
evangelists i'll this country, has said SO.
This feeling is born Of the Moody
meetings III New York city. Mr.. Moody
has said that they have been among the
most remarkable i'll his experience. The
Carnegie hall services on Sunday have
been especially notable.

to be given their wish in the matter, and
that the Anaconda county be made SO as
to include only the city of Anaconda and
its suburbs. Continuing, the Recorder
thinks that the proper course would be:
Then secure if possible a special char
ter from the legislature so that one gov
ernment-one set of officers can carry on
the affairs of the county or municipality.
A board Of district supervisors might be
elected to act in the joint capacity of COM
missioners and aldermen. Have the
schools under their control as we'll as all
city affairs. One set of police officers
could handle all the public business;
there wonld be no need of a sheriff; give
the chief or city marshal like authority.
We believe, while the departure would
be quite radical from the system now in
vogue, it would be found that the cost of
maintaining such a government would be
greatly reduced from what it costs at
present.
A great source of expense in large
counties is the keeping up of roads and
bridges and mileage. This would prac-
tically be done away with, as far as Ana
conda is concerned, if we had a small
county.
Something like this plan is in effect at
st. Louis, and it is said that that is the
best and cheapest municipality in the
United States. The plan is certainly
worth looking into by the people Of An
aconda. 1t would not work as a general
rule, because the people of the country
districts could not keep up a county gov
eminent without assistance from the
cities.
The county commissioners of Silver
Bow will be required to answer in the
district court, why they let a contract to
the highest bidder. Mrs. A. A. Hare,
who is a sister of one of the board, was
the highest bidder for the contract for
the care of the county poor, her bid being
$3.50 a week per capita. There were
several other bids, but that of Mrs. Au
gusta Sampson ($3.4O per weekly was the
lowest. The contract vas given to Mrs.
Hare, the highest bidder-all same Deer
Lodge county commissioners-and now
Mrs. Sampson proposes to contest the
matter in the district court. If there is
anything in a name, Mrs. Sampson will
do some strong Hare pulling before she
jars loose from Silver Bows county dads.

The Old and the New Year.

All hail to the New Year! All hail! And yet
We must still bid adieu to the old with regret.
For like a rare jewel now vanished from view,
Fond memory enhances its value anew.
1t added both gladness and grief to our store,
1t brought with its blessings to deplore
And we sadly remember with retrospect gaze,
Not only its sunny but shadowy days.
But yet, all in all, taken e'er at its best,
1t seemeth still nearer, more dear than the rest;
And as ar old friend that was tender and true.
We bid 1t farewell ere we welcome the new.
Its mission is ended, its labor is done,
Already the New Year his course has begun:
But as hope for the future the past hath foretOld,
We welcome the New Year as pledge of the old.
Farewell to the Old Year! All hail to the Jew!
Our hearts beat responsive to promise so true;
Though we mourn the departed with sorrowful
tear,
With faith in the future, We hail the New Year!
