In the summer of 1886 the United
States made prisoners of war 800
Apache Indians-men. women, and
children. In the quarter of century
since then the status of those Indians
has not been changed. Their few sur
yivors and their much more numerous
descendants-their children and their
children's children-are still prison.

The outcome of straw vote in La
noble county on town meeting day is
interesting. With nearly 800 votes
taken under these circumstances the
sentiment shown should De fairly &C
curate and as Roosevelt got 524 votes
to 256. the outcome was certainly de-
csive. This straw vote does not
agree with what has been generally
believed concerning Vermont senti
ment and we DOUBT if it is fair guide
to the whole state. However, there is
enough difference of opinion so that
every effort should be made to give
the voters themselves chance to be
represented at Chicago according &c
majority sentiment and not according
to the views of any group OF politi
clans.

Georgetown, Tex, March 6.-John

The assassin killed himself He said
he shot for revenge.
John T. Sneed was the father OF
John Beal Sneed. The latter recently
was on trial for the killing of Capt A.

sequel TO the elopement of Captain
Boyce's son with Sneed's wife.
It is presumed today's killing was
direct outgrowth of the Boyce-Sneed

jury falling to agree.

The night was the most re-
markable in the history of the
Democratic party.
A. quiet session of oratory and
voting had been expected when
the delegates settled comfortably
into their chairs.
Vim. ]. Bryan busted that pro-
gram all to pieces with his attack
on the money trust, Morgan,
Ryan and Belmont.
1t was the final break between
Bryan and the bosses who have
been trying so hard to please him
the last two days.
The faces of Murphy, Sullivan,
Taggart, Ryan and the Old Guard
were studies as Bryan read his
resolution and his bitter cendem-
nation of Ryan and Belmont.
They didn't know what to do.

and Sullivan shivered in their
shoes to think of it.
They had been willing to put
up with a progressive candidate
and a radical platform so as to-
have Bryan take the stump for
them in the fall. n
And now the Nebraskan had
called them all bond-slaves and
torn the lining out of things.
And the delegates themselves
they were a pitiful sight. Il
The fight that Bryan caused

vention until / o'clock. o

ANGEL AVOIDED THE TRAP
Tells of His Duel of Wits With a Spy
of the Sultan of Turkey
at Constantinop!e.

In the diplomatic service, man
must always keep his wits keen and
ready for use. a case in point is sup
piled by James Burrill Angel, in his
"Reminiscences" in this anecdote Of
his sojourn in Constantinople, as min
lister from the United States:
The spies of the sultan were every
where. A Turk told me that the spy
business was the most prosperous Of
all. l was assured that spies were
sitting at the dinner tables Of the prin-
cipal hotels, to overhear the conver-
sation Of the guests. With one against
whose visits had been warned, had
an amusing interview.
He was a handsome, dignifed Arab,
who had been in England long enough
to talk English fairly well. He intro
duced himself to me by saying he had
been mayor Of Jerusalem, and was
now trying to procure from the gov
ernment a concession for the con-
struction of a system Of waterworks
for that city.
He regretted-so he informed me-
to find that the government was SO
corrupt that he had no hope Of secur-
ing the concessions except by bribing
a whole row of officials. 1t refreshed
him to turn from those representa-
tiyes of corrupt and tyrannical gov
ernment and pay his respects to the
representative Of a pure and honest
democracy.
Supposing his object to be to draw
from me some remark derogatory to
the Sultan, which ne could report to
my disadvantage, I remarked that a
monarchy presided over by just sOv-
ereign was a very edifying spectacle,
and that even in republics it must
be admitted that corrupt men were
sometimes found in Office.
He seemed surprised, and proceed
ed to eulogtze republican government
continued my concentrations of en-
lightened monarchi6s.
The conversation ran on in this way
for half an hour, when he bade me
adieu-but, as I fiattered myself, with
out any game for his bag.-Youth's

BRAVE EFFORT AT ENGLISH

The Democratic House of Represent
atives, entering upon the discharge of
its solemn duty and obligation, has pass
ed numerous tariff measures, reducing
the tariff taxation and tightening the bur
dens of the people. For this we con-
graduate the Democratic House of Rep
resentatives and the country, and we
hereby declare our firm adherence to the
fundamental principle that tariff taxation
IS Constitutional for the single purpose
of producing funds for the support Of the
government, economically administered;
and we denounCe the whole system of the
Republican doctrine of protection as a
system primarily intended to benefit the
Driva' and selfish interests, and a fraud
upon the American people.
Economy IN public expenses, that
labor may be lightly burdened, is car
dinal principle of the Democracy in con-
tradjsunetion with the policy of the Re-
publican party as manifested in the
reckless extravaganza of the Republican
administration. We direct the attention
of the American taxpayers TO the con-
spicuous record of the Democratic House
of Representatives in this behalf. EfIiC-
ienCv in the administration without ruth
less waste in the public treasury has been
the guiding principle Of the Democratic
House of Representatives. and unless
their plans for economy are frustrated
by Republican Senate and Republican
President, the work OF the Democratic
House Of Representatives promises sub
stantia reduction Of the public expendl-
lures.
we declare that as progressive de-
velopment Of American politics the ne
Cessjry OF less frequent Presidential
elections and the freedom hom the pres
sure OF a candidacy for denomination,
which so often embarrasses the American
executive is evident. and there is a sound
advance in our governmental structure
to be found in the widely-proposed six
wear term for President, with prohibition
/ against reelection.
We declare that as the distinguished
| Speaker of the House OF Representa-
tives, Hon. ChomD Clark. was the choice
of the Maryland Democracy at the recent
preferential primary, the delegates to the
Nation Convention this dav elected,
are pledged by the said primary to sup
port his candidacy as long as there is a
chance for his nomination
