The iron and steel industry IS univer-
sally recognized as faithful barometer
of trade, and in the activity in that line
is telling the story Of present business
conditions. Rolling mills, steel plants,
and furnaces generally are actually
rushed with orders. and what is OF
great Significance is the fact that the
enormous demand is perfectly legiti-
mate and without the slightest tinge OF
speculation. Railroads, manufacturers
and builders are all busy, and when
they are busy there is a demand for
iron and steel.

A CLEVELAND special of May 1lth
says: The circuit court today made the
ruling that honest newspaper criticism
is not TO be regarded in Ohio as con-
temptuous. Judge Lamson recently
cited Editor Post for contempt for
writing an editorial rejecting upon his
court. The editor was fined $500 and
ordered sent to jail for ten days, The
circuit court, ruling on the appeal to-
day, held the article complained of was
not in the slightest degree contemp.
tuous because it did not relate to a case
pending, and further that newspa per
publications, however libelous of a
judge they may be, do not constitute
contempt of court so long as they dc
not relate to a case pending. The case
was dismissed and Post discharged.

Marietta Joker.
The Journal has the following Sat-
urday City Detective Mehen arrested a
Young man from Marietta, on com.
plant OF his former employer, livery
man from the same village, who charg-
ed the prisoner with stealing a horse
from his stable.
The prisoner was brought before
Squire Jones, but when the complain
ant came to tell his story, it developed
that the prisoner had merely traded off
his employers horse, and the livery
man hadn't approved of the animal re.
ceived in exchange. OF course, the
Squire refused to issue a warrant and
the prisoner was released
The joke of the whole affair was this,
and it's on Detective Mehen. When be
arrested the prisoner, the fellow from
the first start, wouldn't speak to the
Captain, and paid no attention to any
thing the latter said to him. In fact,
he wouldn't open his mouth, and Cap
tain Mehen concluded that he had bad
case OF dea af-mute on his hands. A hal-
py thought came to him and procuring
pad of paper, he tried the experiment
Of reducing his communications to writ
ing. The plan worked splendidy, and
the Captain wore out 10-cent lead PEN
ell communicating with his prisoner
When he brought his captive before
Squire Jones the Captain warned the
Squire that he had to deal with a per-
son who was as deaf as a poker, and
dumb as the silent tomb. So the Squire
addressed the liveryman and all went
well, until, just as the affair ended hap
PLY the liveryman, in a flow of good
feeling. asked if his ex-employe would
go back TO Marietta with him and, in
cidentally, join him in a drink. Then
the vials of the deaf and dumb (?)
mans speech were broken, and he
spake in this wise: gu just bet your
boots, will!'
That Captain Mehen was disgusted.
goes without saying. 1t is SAID that he
wanted to swear out warrant for the
fellow, then and there. for causing the
Captain to labor under false pretenses
also under mistake, but we don't
believe that part of it.

Ohio Republicans are united.

Washington, May 1O.-Ohio Demo-
Gratis in Washington-and there are lots
of them-are not so clipper as they
were during the first week or two after
the April elections. They are begin
ming to realize two things; That the
Republicans are thoroughly united and
will present solid front next fall; and
that they themselves are hopelessly di-
vided and will be so throughout the
campaign. Silver is, OF course. the
cause of the split in the Democracy.
The silver Democrats are as uncom-
promising as ever in their advocacy of
the white metal The Democratic
State platform is to declare for silver,
and, if John r, Mclean has his way,
for nothing else. 1t is proposed to
make the fight squarely upon the tinan-
cial issue, drawing the lines even more
sharply than they were drawn last fall.
The result of such contest will be to
drive from the support of Democracy
