Deadly Work.

Every newspaper now engaged in
perverting the facts OF the Hazelton in
cident, and in representing the sheriff
of Luzerne county and his deputies as
murderers," and the rioters who were
killed while resisting the law, as Amer
lean freemen massacred because they
were exercising their rights as free
men on the public highway; every such
newspaper, whether its impulse be an
archistic, or political, or weakly senti-
mental, is engaged in deadly work.
No volley fred by the officers OF the
law into an ignorant and turbulent
crowd, organized for law-breaking and
refusing to dispense when commanded
to do so In the name Of the law, can be
so deadly in its effect as this fusillade
aimed by shameless or foolish journals
al sheriff who understood that his
duty was to dispense the mob, not to
allow the mob to dispense his posse
and to bring the law into contempt.
This coddling of the mob, this sys-
tematic invention of facts to excite
sympathy for the victims OF their own
misdeeds, this bestowal Of the honors of
martyrdom upon rioters killed in the
act OF riot, this inversion of tho right
relations between the representative of
law and the man who defies the law, is
dangerous and murderous enterprise
that will breed further mischief and
cost more blood.
The shameless newspapers of sensa-
ton and anarchy will persist in glorify-
ing riot, in making heroes of the mob,
and in melting the ignorant to violence,
and thus Turing them on to death. The
foolish or weakly sentimental journals
will continue to perform their part of
the deadly work until healthy public
sentiment makes itself heard concern.

THERE is Joy, and the peace that
passeth all understanding, among the
dominies, clerics and sentimentalists
with an itching for public affairs, and
their unfailing conductors, the Mug
wumps, over the return of Browns
prodigal son, President Andrews, to the
headship of the college he threw down
in a pet, few weeks ago. There is
much billing and cooling among the
brethren over the vindication" of
the freedom of speech, freedom of
thought, freedom of folly and several
other brands Of freedom peculiar to
"the scholar in politics." In affairs Of
politics or domestic economy carte
blanche is demanded for the "opin-
ions no matter how heterodox--of
the college president or professor, but
if the nostrils Of theologians detect the
faintest breath of faint in the dominie's
religious tenets, the culprit is sum-
moned before the Sanhedrin OF the
church for trial or admonition. Had
President Andrews justified, never SO
vaguely, the Turks destruction Of
his Armenian subjects, all American
Christendom would have instantly de-
manded his head; and still the chief
officer Of Christian college might
have pleaded in his defense the right
to his own opinion and its utterance,
just as the religious papers and leaders
Of religious belief in the country were
recently demanding for this man the
right to his opinion and its expression
in a vital matter of economics, and
wildly condemning the governing body
of Brown University for its mild admo-
milton Of its chief executive in respect
Of his views on the free coinage of sill
yer and their too public expression.
With the classes of persons mentioned,
it seems to make very wide difference
as to whose OK is gored by the bull Of
heterodoxy.

body Of 2l5 men, every member was
present and every one voted, amidst
great enthusiasm, to name a straight
party ticket for all the city offices,
from top to bottom. The nominating
convention meets September %. I'm
less there shall be some decided change
in the situation, either the withdrawal
of Mr.. Low or his acceptance by the
Republicans, there will be division
among the supporters Of good govern
ment and probable defeat in November.
But the Tammany forces are not united

dertake the feat of riding two horses 60

Gus that railroads should be anxious

IT is strange that people did not come
on foot. Who would not cheerfully
walk 1916 miles to bear Gen. Adoniram
JudsoD Warner and the Hon. Allen W.
Thurman thunder against government
by injunction? Mr.. Thurman told the
seven hundred that "the time will soon
come when 1t will be necessary TO
ameliorate the sufferings of the people
by unpeaceable MEANS" The emo
tions Of the seven hundred at this mod
crate language Of this singularly sage
orator have not been described.
THIS incident in the State Conven-
ton Of the Ohio Gold Democrats shows
that virtue is it's own reward. Some
infidel introduced a resolution declar-
ing that it was inexpedient to nominate
state ticket this year. Then the Hon.
Daniel Wilson Of Cincinnati uprose
like the great Montrose, in the middle
OF the room, and made speech that
made very nervous the fremen who
had to look after the safety of the hall.
eff we do not nominate" cried the
Hon Daniel Wilson, "we say, good
by to the National Democratic party Of
Ohio forever. / want to say that /
came to the convention hoping that
some man might be nominated for
whom 1 can vote this fall. will not
vote for any follower Of the anarchistic
doctrines OF William J. Bryan; 1 will
not vote for a serf of the bifurcated
leadership Of Hanna and Mckinley. If
we have no one for standard-bearer
this year, we go down forever and for
ever" So the resolution was put down
and State ticket was put up; and the
name OF the candidate for Attorney
General on that ticket is Daniel Wilson
Of Cincinnati. So he has candidate for
whom he can vote. He can continue
! to bid defiance to anarchists and bifur-
Gated serfs; and he can 60 on instead
of going down forever and forever.

Note and Comment.

In his views on the situation of
Spain in Cuba and the Philippines Senior
Sagasta exhibits the attribute imported
by his name. He thinks the outlook
in all the islands equally, and adds that
the Carlist propaganda at home cannot
be regarded with indifference. He
does not think that there will be any
improvement in the situation of affairs
while the Conservatives remain in
power. If the Liberals come in they
may be equally helpless. Keeping
provinces as mich COWS and trying to
eat them up at the came time has not
been found successful experiment,
and the country is now paying the PEN
atty of its failure.-New York Tribune.
In view of the fact that mailing cards
are being extensively used for the pur-
pose of sending signed receipts for
goods or money and as orders for
goods, Third Assistant Postmaster
General Merritt has issued instruc-
tons to the effect that printed mailing
cards, 80 prepared that by attaching a
signature thereto they are converted
into receipts, or into orders upon the
addressee for some article or articles
furnished by him, when 30 signed be-
come personal communications, and
are liable to postage at the first-class
rate. Postmaster Van Colt has been
notified that such signed mailing cards
must pay letter postage.

Our FOOthOld in Samoa.

The Berlin newspaper which says
that President Mckinley believes his
predecessor left the administration of
Samoa too much in the hands of Ger
many and England is probably correct
in it's assertion. Indeed, that prede-
cessor openly urged Congress to take
steps for Withdrawing altogether from
the share of the administration which
and from the treaty itself.
There Is no doubt that the Berlin
agreement, which in some respects was
experimental, can be improved, and
perhaps there is ground for the report
that the President desires our consul.
general at Apia to suggest improve
ments. But it will be observed that
the purpose attributed to the President
is "to restore fully American in
huence." This is quite different aim
from Mr.. Cleveland's, which was to
throw up the obligations which we had
assumed jointly with England and
Germany, and leave the natives, who
have always counted on our friendship,
to the tender mercies of these two
powers.
We should be glad to learn that an
American warship had been ordered to
visit Apia. There seems to be no
special disturbance there now, but as
our:fag has not been seen on war YES
sci there for years, "a call from such YES
sci might assure The Samoans that we
have not forgotten them. Apia is not
long run from Honolulu, and while
Hawaii, of course, absorbs our chief at
tention in the Pacific, we may we'll have
little regard for the group in the
South Seas.-New York Sun.

Editor of Waterman: The WATcHSfAN re-
porter of the East Corinth fair is very grateful
to j. w. Davis for his letter in the last issue of
the Waterman, as it gives him an opportunity
to explain why he "rehearsed the laurels won by
Golden S." in the report of the stallion exhibit
and awards. At the fair now under considera-
tion there were exhibits on different parts of
grounds, at the same time, making it impossi-
BILE for the reporter to depend entirely upon
his own observations, and he found it necessary
people," as It were. And he is indebted to the
officers of the association, the exhibitors and
superintendent of the different departments,
for their kind assistance and courteous treat
ment In return it was his intention to treat
all parties and persons with proper respect and
do justice to all classes of exhibits far as his
ability would permit. In the stallion exhibit
Mr.. Davis says, 1.-THE comparative showing of
the horses should, and did govern the awards"
The reporter did not have the opportunity of
personally Judging the horses in question, but
If the statements of the two gentlemen whose
names are affixed to the subjoined statement
are true, land they are considered men of truth
and veracity) he feels that the report only did
justice to Golden S., while what Mr.. Davis is
pleased to call ''slurring the judges" was far
from his intention. The reporter is indebted
to MIR. Davis for his correction of the mistake
in reporting premiums on two-year-old stations,
and regrets that any unpleasant feeling should
arise, as his connection with these fairs and his
work for the WATcHMAN in that section of
Orange county is associated only with pleasant
memories. But under the circumstances he
feels justified in taking this means to vindicate
his report. GEO. NJ SEAvER,

STATEMENT.
Editor of Waterman: In regard to j. W.
Davis statement in your issue of September
10, and Mr.. Seavers communication in this
issue, we desire to say that one of the Judges
on stallions-whose name we will give if
called upon to do so-in conversation with us
made statement the substance of which is
as follows: That the judges considered Cob
den s., superior to Dandy Lambert, but in
consideration of the fact that he had been
awarded so many premiums, including World
fair premium, first premium at State fair,
Tunbridge and Corinth fairs, they felt justified
in favoring Mr. Davis. We are ready to defend
this statement at any time and in any way the
judges may desire.
Respectfully,
