WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER, 28, 1558. Hon. David R. Franeis of St. Louis governor-elect of Missouri, will enter upon his duties as gov- ernor on the fourth day of Juanuary i =—-1889, asthe youngest man that has i ever filled that office in Missouri. —_—_—_ The Union Labor committe at In dianapolis, Ind., last week, re-elected - general master workman Powderly. Powderly had insisted that he would not accept another term unless elec- ted unanimously. Though a strong Opposition to him it seems that Mr. Powderly knows a gcod thing when he sees it and will not so readily let go. Gen. Palmer, late candidate for governor of Illinois, has with- drawn from the G. A. R. because he believes the organization is being used in the interests of the republi- can party. As the General has been _ one of the foremost men in the or- ganization he ought to know, and it is strange he was not convinced be- fore he ran for office. The board of trade of Baxter Bprings, Cherokee county, Kansas, sends out an invitation circular io ‘an Indian territorial convention to * be held in that city Tuesday the 18th day of December 1888, for the pur- pose of taking active steps toward securing the carly opening of the Indian tenitory to white settlers, and the allotment of lands to In- dians. The pertinent character of the following observation by the Den- ver News will probably be realized by the country before it is four years older: “One item ia political history may be jotted down: The business features of tho Cleveland administration, in whole or in part, will not be improved upon. They pass into history as: the best attainable.” General Harrison is probably al- f ready beginning to learn what it | means to be elected to the presiden- cy from a doubtful state. It is safe to say that he will not occupy the ‘executive chair many moxths befcre e he will wish, from the bottom of his heart, that there were more officers | within the power of the government less patriots in Indiana. _ Washingtor, D. C., Nov. 23.— ngressman John T. Heard of Mis uri will be married to-morrow at er, of Tino: ction, said: ~-It stand the Dlinois publicaus have two tors on whieh they can al- | ways rely inan election. The color- (ed vote (probably about 20,000) is | } one; it will be governed by the re- | publican party as ent race of voters live, without any regard to the practical issues involv- long as the pres- ! ed in the election. soldier vote of the state belongs to the republican party and will sup- port its candidates under all circum- stances. It supported Mr. Fifer against me. It supported Mr. Ray, who advertised for a substitute, against Mr. Bell, who was a soldier of good reputation. It supported Mr. Payson against Col. Snow—can- didates in the canvass for congress— Snow having been the commander of a regiment. It supported Mr. Cannon against Maj. McKinley. And whatever it may pretend on the score of patriotism it is really a re- publican contingent which may al- ways be relied upon. These two elements more than equaled Harri- son’s majority in this state. ied The Soldiers’ Home at Quincy was openly prostituted to serve political purposes. Myinformation is that Mr. Fifer made a speech in the building and publicly announced that, if he was elected, there would be no changein the superintendency, and from that time Maj. Rowland,the threw off guises and openly supported the re- publican ticket, though a professed democrat. The unnaturalized mates were naturalized under the di- home superintendent, all dis in- rection of the chairman of the re- publican central committees, and they, too, voted for Mr. Fifer. * * * The geu of illinois par ral political situation cularly was that the business centers, where we expected to find difficulty, were found ready to support the tariif views of the de:mocraey, while the farmers, con- scrvative, as they always are, pre- ferred the burden of ta axation. and henee our views mie no impression upon them. On the whole the lost the state mainly from two causes: (1) The t of confidence in their own strength. (2) The want of thorough organization.” still to bear democrats cut Indivisible, That able and enterprising organ of the New England democracy, the Boston Globe, propounds an inqui- Texas, O ry and makes a statement: Why should not the democrats cut up Texas into three or four states? Texas has territory enough. It is as large as all the thirteeen original states combined, leaving out North Carolina. Texas has inhabitanis enough. Its population equals the population of New Hampshire, Ver- mont, Rhode Island, Delaware, Flor- ida, Colorado, Nevada and Oregon. These states have sixteen senators, while Texas has but two.

No amount of blus on Judge Rucker’s part will ever e those who know Jve Black- believe that he is a coward. On other hand Rucker has derived ts of free advertising of the kind pleases and flatters him while injures senator Blackburn. Judge er may be a very brave man a gentleman, but his actions oughout the whole affair does not eit. If he did have the private wersation with President Cleve- d he claims, he betrayed a sacred lence in afterward making the public, on the other hand if ‘was senator Blackburn's words he credited to the president ‘he is an ardent knave. We have that senator Blackburn will Benge such a man tofght a duel; at he may kick him out cf hs way, threatens, should chance ever them together. why shouldn't the democrats do the same? The Globe's approximation of the size and population of Texas is cor- rect. Itis also correct in assuming that Texas has the right to dismem- ber itself if its people felt so inclin- ed. When Texas abdicated its posi- tion as one of the sovereign nations of the earth to enter the union of American states, it was provided in the act of annexing that: “New states of convenient size, not exceed- ing four in number, in addition to said state of Texas, and having suf- ficient population, may hereafter, by the consent of said state, be formed out of the termtory thereof, which shall be entitled to admission under the provisions of the federal consti- tution.” Texas has territory enough to make five states of ordinary size and a population sufficient to give each of five states 500,000 people. There is nothing in the way of the propo- sition of the Globe but the consent of the people of Texas. Will the Texans consent? Hardiy.—St. Louis Republic. Campaign Promises. Mr. Powderly was evidently a not inattentive observer of the promises with which the republican leaders during the recent campaign endeay- ored to seduce the Labor vote from its natural allegiance to the demo- Se ens HR poe be Were ne enor Wes Sy tibia sthennnferarcarer ets Nesasdere Oem melee oma occa menineeereattiomeitini thaseielsiscesseiettieinsin aetna is. inan in- cratic party which throughout its | history has been the friend of the | people. In an editorial article in the last issuc Journal of ; United Labor, the official organ of the K. of L., he says: The party of high protection will ‘have a chance during the next four | years to redeem the many promises made to Labdr during the canipaign The mills which have just closed. The profession- | been closed down because (as alleg- ed) of the unsettled state of trade owing to the proposed legislation of Mr. Mills should be started up with full force at once The sweep- ing proclamation that the election of Mr. Harnson would result in an early and general increase of wages paid to all kinds of labor should be made good immediately, as winter is almost here and the wage-workers are in need ofall the cash they can get their hands on just at this time. These promises are not taken from the mouthings of demagogues on the stump, but from the literature of the campaign issued by the Na- tional Committee, and the people have a right to expect that such pledges as these will be redeemed. We presume that Mr. Powderly is also an attentive observer of the manner in which the protected man ufacturers have begun to redeem their pledges, noting as an example the actions of Higgins & Co., of New York, in discharging 600 of their operatives a week after they had partieipated in the Harrison parade. We have no hesitation in predicting that within 30 days aiter tke ection more workingmen will be tu ned on the streets to join the swollen army of the unemployed than coring the previous six months. at same time labor should re- mem er the promises and adjust its demands to them. They have been told that protective duties are solely for the benefit of Labor. Now let them get Mr. Powderly and their othe» leaders to figure out just how much the prices of various commo- dities are enhanced by Protection. aul see what share of that increase Labor is getting.—St. Louis Repub se@tDPRS, Noy. 23.—The es printed a few days ago what were pronounced the official eleetion returns of the estate of Kansas.

Wichita, Kas., Nov. 22.—Dast night there was a very peculiar pro- ceedings at the Union Depot, in this city. Frank Lindwall was working as operator for the Santa Fe in the absense of the regular operator, who was sick. He is reported to have said something over the wire that displeased trainmaster J. Gar- ver of Mulvane. The latter ordered all trains off the track, and taking a telegraph operator to supply Lind- walls place, he got out the switch engine, and rode here, a distance of 30 miles at a terific rate. He burst into the dispatehers office and beat Lindwall in a frightful manner. The latter was carried home insensible and to-day denies that he ever said anything to cause the assault. Broke the Bank. Valparaiso, Neb., Nov. 22.—The State Bank of this place has closed its doors and the proprietors, F. Scoville and G. A. Craft, have fled the country, leaving many debts un- satisfied. As nearly as can be as- certained this evening the liabilities will reach $200,000. It develops that Scoville has alter- ed many notes payable to the bank by raising the figures on them. Both he and Craft borrowed exten- sively from their friends before leaving. ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE. | Jolin Coleman Near Mt. Olivet Church | Shoots Himself in the Porel | \ ad. From Mr. R. C.

His room was visited, when it was learned with great horror that John had shot himself a little to the right of the center cf the forehead and mid- way between the eyebrows and edge of the hair. He used a 32-calibre revolver and his aim had been re- markably steady. The ball had pierced the brain and ite lay in a stupor, from which it was impoas.- ble to rouse him. Mr. Bradley, who lives 2 short dis- tance away, arose at an early hour to start for Clinton, heard some ove hallooing at Mr. Coleman's and was the first to reach the house. He went in great haste for Dr. Gray, and delivered hie message about 4 declock. Dr. Gray made an examin- ation of the wound, but could offer no consolation to the weeping pa- rents and sisters. Brains were then vozing from the wound, and stupor if possible becoming more rigid. Mr. Coleman is about 26 years of age, was reared in that neighbor- hood, and is unmarried.

Ind., Nov. 23.—The Journal, which is considered a Har- rison organ, in an editorial article de- clares that the civil service law must be obeyed. The “Clean sweepers” should not be unreasonable in their demands. The republican party is pledged by its platform to civil ser vice reform and General Harrison has declared himself in full sympathy with it. The law must be obeyed. Ii has not been altogether iguored even by the present administration and it would be scandalous for « re- publican administration not to give it still fairer construction. A Youthfal Fergzer Arrested. Cincinnati, Nov. 23.—Charles Tinkler, the youthful bank forger, was arrested yesterday in Loudon, England. Tinkler is not yet 21 years of age. He was collector for the Bodmann tobacco house and in September last forged three checks of $5,000 each, presented them at bank and obtained the money and left, saying he was going to follow bookmaking at the races. The forgery was not discovered until the checks were re- turned about November Ist. A young German girl named Meir went with Tinkler. It is said thata sister of her’s died of grief a few days ago and that Tinkler’s mother is insane from grief over the dowz- fall of her son.
