DOWN IN THE EARTH.



In the report Of the last coal com
mission the conclusion is arrived at
that at a depth Of 1000 feet the tenn
perature Of the earth would amount
to % degrees Fahrenheit, but it was
considered that a depth of Mt least
1000 feet might ultimately be reached
In coal mining. The rate of increase.
the commissioners thought. might for
ordinary cases be assumed 10 be one
degree Fahrenheit for every GO feet.
bat II IS really impossible 10 give
any fixed rate Of increase.
The report Of the British associa-
ton committee on underground tenn
peratures during the last thirty years
tends to show not only that the tenn
peratnre gradient varies considerably
ia different localities, but that 1t is
rot easy to deduce a fixed law Of in
crease applicable to all eases In some
parts of western America the heat at
5000 feet is almost unbearable. while
at the copper mine in north Michigan
there is a rise OF only four degrees
Fahrenheit in a depth Of 100 feet, al
though 30 artificial ventilation is re-
sorted 10.
The temperature Of the coal on dis
c0vcry al the ROsebridge colliery In
ancashire was stated by the man
agcmcnt 10 be 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
but it afterWard fell to GO degrees

Among the Southern press all the
way to Vicksbnrg and farther, there
seems to be general and emphatic APP
prevail of Gov Yardeman's action in
calling out the militia to prevent the
lynchiHg Of q negro at Batesyille for
a brutal murder committed by him
Plans were all made to burn him and
the mob leaders were waiting to get
him pending negotiations between the
sheriff and the railroad people over
the reward OF $500 The governor
was notified OF the circumstances and
went to the scene of the proposei
tragedy at tke head OF company Of
militia and took the negro III charge
This action OF the governor is the
more impressive IN view al strong
speeches against negro IoAinatiun
during his campaign. which aroused
much unfayorable comment in the
Northern press

Public opinion Is divided on the yer
diet Of the jury in the O'Neal case
The mot general expectation was
that the defendant would be found
guilty of manslaughter and sent 10
the peniientiafy for term of years !;
but those who followed the testimony
as given in The Bulletin from day to
day, and who read the Instructions Of
the court, realized that the defense
had made strong case The laws
are generally very strongly in favor Of
The defendant in a murder trial the
question Of doubt Is made very i'm
portant factor by the law Absolute
certainty Of guilt is required before o
verdict of guilty can be returned and
doubt may enter so easily into the
minds Of the average jury when Il
great mass Of evidence is offered
which is contradictory on important
questions of fact, and is supplemented
by instructions as TO the law, which
give the defendant wide latitude in
the use of means TO defend his per
son and property when his own domi.
cile is invaded For this reason the
jury in such case should be above
The average in mental calibre, in or.
der that it may weigh correctly the
law and the evidence, and reach q

In Union county the Democrats
have organized strong Hearst club
with Judge Crawford as president and
Hon. A. Ney Sessions as secretary
The membership is said to be over
300, and II is claimed that the voters
are strongly for Mr. Hearst as a can
didate for president The movement
is good in so far as it shows a lively
interest among the masses of the par.
ty in the coming campaign. A lack Of
interest on the part OF voters is one
of the surest signs of impending de
feat. Democratic activity promises
Democratic success, for Il indicator
confidence on the part of the voters.
which in turn is based upon condi
tions that usually make for success.
The Democrats of Union county have
always been wide-awake and enthusi.
asiic and under the leadership OF
Judge Crawford and Mr.. Sessions are
not likely TO go astray. Their enthu.
siasm for Mr.. Hearst now does not
necessarily mean that they will not
support any other man whom the ma.
tionaI convention may choose, or
whose namemay be carried before that
