Koth Partiesin the House Will) Wel- come a Contest . Washington, D. C., Sept. 13.— Though the bill to repeal the feder- al elections law is to be presented tomorrow in the House, it is not at all probable that the bebate will be- gin ‘before Friday. How long the discussion will last is an unsettled question. The Re-| publicans say that they want at least a month, and Mr. Sucker of Virginia | who has the bill in charge, says that there will be no limit placed upon the speeches in the line of legitimate discussion, but as soon as it is ap- parent the minority is filibustering, the committee on rules will be in yoked for an order which shall com pela vote. There is a good deal of opposition manifested, even on the Democratic side, to tha present consideration of the proposition. It is claimed that it will detract attention Senate, and in this way, as well as by angering the endanger the cause of repeal. The answer of the Southern Democrats to this comment is brief but to the point. They say that they have al- ready sacrificed their opinions on the silver question to the position of the administration, and they can not go back to their constituents un- less something is done that is direct ly desired by their section, Apart trom this there is a general desire on the part of the Democratic leaders to kave some questions brought forward upon which the political lines can be visibly drawn. Republicans, will They point out that the Democratic ; party is not a unit upon silver. or the income tax, and there are differ- ences of opinion as to the extent to which tariff revision should go On obliteration of federal forces at the polls there is no division of senti- ment. The leading Demoorats are unanimous in the hope that there! will bea very lively political fight on the repeal of the election laws. It has been so long since there has been a genuine political fight in the House that it will be welcomed only by the Democrats but by the Republicans. The exact prograwme which the Republicans will follow in their op- position to the repeal of the federal election laws has not yet been made known. Asa matter of fact, the secrecy which is being observed is not without a purpose, the minority being afraid of disclosing its plan of campaign to the enemy. All that! they say is to repeat their determin- | ation to fight until they can no longer hold out. The debate, as al-' ready indicated, promises to be very bitter. Mr. Johnston of North Dakota, who is preparing the minority re- port on the bill, says that it will deal largely with the question of the constitutionality of those laws,which is denied by the majority: ‘ from the | not J official and private dispatches were ‘received in this city to-day from ‘yellow fever { | port will go into the arguments used in Congress at the time those laws | Were passed and will cite the decis lions of the Supreme court constru jig them. He expresses the opinion that the Repuplicans will ouly ask ‘for a full and free discussion of the | merits of the Tucker bill, and will not resort to filibusteriug tactics to | delay or defeat its passage. A Farmer Buncoed. Ill, Sept. 13—Et H. | Dick, a fariver, living five miles east of Tolono, in Philo Township was | buncoed out of $2,700 this after | noon by tin-box men. Two strang- }ers called on him in the Tolono, morning }and bargained to purchase a farm | from him, but did not have the nec | essary amount of money to make | the full payment It was therefore | decided that the stravgers would | put a forfeit of $5,000 and Mr. Dick ' one of $2,700 to bind the contract, the strangers to return at the end of | five days and close the deal. The money was placed in a tin box and | was to be left with Mr. Dick, but ; not to be opened. Shortly after the strangers had gone, however, Mr. Another cld soldier with his army badges, his faded blue coat, his broad-brimmed hat crushed over his brows—there he was dead, with the cirtificate al- most within his grasp. His name was G. B Higgins of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Women are taken from the live so sick as to be unable to stand up. It is a shame. a crying shame, that wo- men should be allowed to participate in this wad struggle for land. If they have friends they should look after They thought they were :oing ona picnic; instead they found that the horrors of the situa- tion fe them. them are almost inconceiva- ble ‘There are no kinda of accom- moda ions for them whatever and the intelligent reader that means. knows what woe begone, the siffit they present is pitiable in the extreme. Fights are constantly occurring here, and Forlorn, language the most obscene and vulgar is falling upon their ears, but so deep is their own misery they are deaf to the scenes around them. Charged With Murder. ‘St. Joseph, Mo., Sept. 14—A se- rious practical joke bas resulted in the holding of a young man named George Diebold, who lives near Den- ton, west of this city for murder. Last night he aud a gang of young fellows plauned to get Albert Pin-| yard, a simple minded youth, to go into a melon patch owned by Die bold Diebold and a negro were to be concealed in the patch aud the Dick,s curiosity got the best of him | and he opened the box and was not a little disappointed to fiad the mon- ey not there. Dick is a wealthy man, } and owns 2,000 acres of land in this county. The strangers drove to Tolono and departed south on the Illinois Central. An effort is being | made to capture them | | Ballard’s Snow Liniment. 2 This liniment is different in composi- tion from any other liniment on the market. It is a scientific discovery, which results in its being the most pen— etrating Liniment ever known. ‘There | are numerous white imitations, which may be recommended because they pay the sellera greater profit.

Unless the efforts of the authori- ties in stamping out the plague are immediately successful, it is likely to be more serious than ever before. A Million Friends. A friend in need is a friend in- deed, and not less than one million people have found just such a friend in Dr. King’s New Discovery for consumption, coughs and colds.—If you have never used this Great Cough Medicine, one trial will con- vince you that it has wonderful cu- rative powers in all diseases of throat, chest and lungs. Each bot- | tle is guaranteed to do all that is claimed or money will be refunded. | Trial botilesfree at H L Tucker's | negro was to seize Pinyard, when Diebold was to fire a pistol and the | negro was to fall. After Pinyard entered the patch, the two rushed out, but Pinyard eluded them and ran. They chased him through barb- ed wire fences by which he was ter- ribly mutilated. When the main party came up they found Pinyard lying ou his face dead, a bullet having penetrated his head. Diebold claimed that ne fell while chasing Pinyard and his pistol was accidentally discharged killing Pinyard His clothing was not torn by the fences and his story was so garbled that a coroner's jury held him for willful murder without bail. The Furnaces are Glowing. Pittsburg, Pa., Sept. 11.—For the first time since- June 30 every de- partment in Jones & Laugblin’s American works was in operation giving employment to 3,500 men. Sixteen additional furnaces were put in operation at the National tube works and the sheet mill of Moor. head, McClean & Co., was started. The Carbon steel works went on “double turn” and the bar mill, two beating furnaces, two puddling fur- naces and four sheet mills of the United States iron and tin plate works started up with full forces. Zug & Co.’s plant also resumed on single turn and other plants are pre paring to start. This is Worth Reading (?) Secretary Morton reminds the croakers that only about three per} cent of all the merchants escape fail- ure, whereas hardly three per cent of the farmers fail. The statistics really show that agriculture is safer than banking, manufacturing or raile roading, taking all things into ac- count. There is no farmer of good sense and good health anywhere in the west, Mr. Morton declares, who i His ce-| drugstore.

Deadwoed In Danger. Deadwood, S. D., Sept. 14 —For- est fire, which bas been threatening this city for the last three days, has to night assumed the form of immi- nent danger’ It has now burneda tract of very heavy timber a mile wide and is coming straight toward town and is only about a mile dis- tant. Everybody has turned out, aud are cutting down trees and endeavoring to check the flames, so far unsuccessfully. The fire is gaining steadily. At 8 o’clock to night the firemen were ordered back to town and the citizens left to fight the fire. The entire destruc- tion of the city is threatened. engaged in Every business man in Salida, Colorado, has signed a pledge to withdraw all business only with St. Louis banks hereafter. If that sort of thing is kept up for a little while the insolent plutocrats of Wall street will know better than to try another experiment of “restricting credits} for educational effect” in the west and south when they want to influ- ence congress. It would be a good thing for the country if we could! close up every bank engaged in that; scoundrelly conspiracy.—Salida } Commerce. | Illinois Parched.
