When . boy he belonged TO James

buried on the Ochiltree homestead
beside his mother. Mr.. Miller's
grandchildren buried him. Only
three colored men assisted, there
being very few colored people in
this vicinity.
About twenty white men followed
his bier. This demonstrates that
the white man is still the coloreo

A CASE IN POINT.

The death of Assemblyman High tower yesterday morning again proves what few any longer dispute-that there is always danger in strong drink. While it is true that many a moderate or occasional drinker main tains his moderation to the last with out apparent injury to his health or his morals, no thinker, however mod crate, is safe until he is dead.
 All at once comes the moment when moderation gives way and the vic tim is no longer able to exercise the option of drinking or letting it alone. There suddenly occurs a physical change after which the desire for drink becomes an irresistible passion
 Mir. Hightower had knocked about the world much more than the aver age man of his age. He was never a teetotaler, and he was never a drunkard. He did not even belong to the class of those whose occa- sional potations are so regular that they are called moderate drinkers. He was much more nearly abstemious. Even during the excitement of the political campaign he never drank to excess. On election day he was over come and from that moment until he lapsed into unconsciousness on Thursday night. from which he lapsed into death on Saturday morning, he was probably never quite sober.
 The case of Hightower is one which calls for no reproduction of the victim. The error which proved so fatal to him is so common that its dangerousness is seldom regarded. In his case drunkenness became a dis ease as deadly and swift as what is popularly known as galloping con sumption.
 Yet it differed from consumption in this-there would have been no disease but for the drink. So, there would be no consumption but for the of the tubercle bacilli. though that is generally unavoidable. But the introduction of intoxicants may always be avoided.

The Washington Herald, the most valued of our exchanges, ever since it was instituted has carried on a relentless war against the Infinitive- Splitters Union. It is, therefore, with regret that we observe, that while it has not actually surrendered to the union, it has become an 'open shop" so to speak; for one of its tele- graph editors evidently is a member of that mutilating organization. He recently permitted it to be said in a dispatch describing the activities of Thomas L. Hisgen, late Independence League candidate for the presidency, that he was about to erect a large oil refining plant near New Orleans ito further compete with the Stand ard oil company" When such a citadel as the Herald falls, or even shows signs of crumbling before the assaults of the "Infinitive- Splitters," the infinitive seems to be doomed.
