He further said he thanked God that he “believed he belonged to a peeple that would sete tle the domination of the money power by bullets, if it was not set- tled by ballots.” Mr. Leoneard quotes the name of the Lordina sort ofa “Peter the Hermit” cru- wade way that smacks strongly of desecration. While talking of peace- able adjustment, his allusion to “bul lets” ia unworthy of the presi- dent of a farmers’ organization, a people who are not now ready to talk about bullets, who look upon all such agitators as demagogues and dangerous leaders. Presdent Leonard is opposed to trusting eith- er of the old parties but the people will soon grow to think that there are few leaders in either of them that would not be safer to trust than this great reform teacher.—Clinton Democrat. A Ride for Lite. Nevada, Cal., Sept. 17.—S. Gala votti, superintendent of the Derbec drift mine, was murdered by high- waymen this morning while coming tothis city with $5,000 in gold bars Galavotti and J. D Ostrom were in atwo horse buggy ascending the South Yuba river grade when a rifie shot was fired from the bank above. The ball entered the back of Gal- avotti's head and emerged from his moutb, causing instant death. Os trom struck the horses with the whip, urging them into a run up the steep grade, just as a second shot was fired. The bullet entered the neck of one of the horses,but a turn in the road soon took the team out of range of the shooters. Ostrom continued to force the team up the grade, holding his com- panion’s dead body in the vehicle with one arm being soaked from head to foot with his life blood. Reaching the Mount Vernon house, Ostrom left Galavotti’s body, and hiding the buggy in the brush, rode to this city to notify the officers. A wagon has just gone out after the dead superindent’s body and several squads of armed men are starting to the scene of the murder. A Duty to Yourself.

New York, Sept. 16.—William Truscom, 8 years old, died at the home of his step-father, 132 Park avenue, Brooklyn, at 7 o'clock last night from the effects of a severe beating which he had received from Mrs. Mary Van Blarcom, who lives on another fleor of the same house. Young Fruscom had assaulted the d4-year-old daughter of Mrs. Van Blarcom. The little girl told her mother, who immediately went down stairs to the rooms of the boy's pa- rents and asked his mother if she could see William. Having received permission she went into the rear room. The boy was lying on a lounge. Mrs. Van Blarcom beat young Truscom severely with a rat- tan cane, striking him several times upon the head. The boy died half an hour later. The weman was ar- rested by the police of the feurth precinct. She madea statement in which she acknowledged that she bad beaten the boy.

Ir- vin, secretary of the Franklyn Ex Confederate Association, a Virgin- ian by birth, was seen to-day by your correspondent regarding the dispateh Parkersburg, W. Va, dated Sept. 6, in which it was stated that General T. M. Harris, a member of the court-martial which investigated the death of Lincoln and condemn- ed Mrs. Surratt, had just finished a history of the assassination of Presi- dent Lincoln, and that the book boldly charges that Jefferson Davis and certain members of his cabinet | were interested in and encouraged the assassination. He said: “I was formerly a resident of Glen- ville, the county seat of Gilmore county, Virginia, and knew General then Dr. T. M. Harris, very well. When the war broke out,“Old Tom” as he was familiarly called,was a can- didate for the lieutenancy for Capt- Elam Mitchell's company, raised at that place for the Confederate ser-| yice. In thie he was unsuccessful. He was then instrumental in the or- ganization of the Tenth Virginia regiment of Federal troops, of which he was commissioned colonel. Up to the time of his defeat he was as rank a secessionist as could be found south of the Mason and Dixon line, and it was disappointed ambition that made him “trooly liol.” These are facts and can be proved by auy of the old residents at Greenville, W. Va. This is the man who is try- ing to villify the character of Jeffer- son Davis; man who in his early days refused to remain in the Con- federate army because he could not wear an Officer's straps; a man who became a Unionist tu secure the regiment and now comes, after si- lence of twenty-six years, hyena like and endeavors to rake up the bones of the am glad to say, not a Virginian by birth, but came to Glenville from Pennsylvania.
