WOOL PRIC UNDER FREE WOOL. The Wool Growers Get Good Prices Under the New ‘Lariif Law. Wheeling W. Va., Sept. 9.—The good efiects of the new tariff bill on the wool market are coming more rapidly than even its most hearty supporters had dared to wish. The Wheeling through its special correspondents in eastern Ohio, West Virginia, aud western Pennsylvania, ius made an inquiry concerning prices and demands, and the result has been far more than satisfactory to the friends of the free woo! measure. The correspondent at Woods field Ohio, the center of a large woo! rais- ing country, represented in congress by A. J. Pearson, whose place was jeopardized by his vote for free wool reports that Alexander Harmon sold 20,000 pounds of wool within a week at 26 cents, and was offered as much for the remainder of his clip. This he refused believing he can do better before the first of the year. Clint & Pfalzgraph also of Monroe county have sold their wool within a week, at 23 cexts, it being a less desirable clip than that of Harmon. Miller & Co., of Beallaville, O., are offering 20 to 21 cents but are getting no wool. The wool men are set against anything short of 23 cents. The re- port from Washington, Pa, is that washed wool is selling and has been for a week at 20 and 21 cents. Markel & Co., of Monorgahela, are offering and bave instructed their country agents to take up 350,000 pounds at from 20 to 25 cents ac cording to grade. Several instances where wool has sold at 20 to 23 cents are reported Most of the wool buyers are repub- licans and the fairy stories they have told wool raisers within the past They have used every means to bulldoze buyers to selling at from 15 to 17 cents and have been able to get some wool at those figures.—Cleveland Plaindealer. Register, three months, areremarkable. Claims of the Opposition. The Butler Democrat has an article on what the opposition claims in which it says the adherents of both the Republican and Populist parties claim that the vote of all three of the leading political par ties of this county is about equal and that whichever of the other two is in the lead, will defeat the Democrats—unless the Demo crats turn out election day. This much is very evident that unless the Democrats turn out on election day either branch of the op position can defeat them. But that there is any particular apathy among the real Democrats of Bates County we do not believe. We are aware that some of the weak kneed fellows —men who allow every passing breeze to blow them from one party to another—are now on the fence,and that the Populists are counting ou these fellows for their main strength. In fact they compose the mainstay of the Populists party in this coun ty. Many of the original ones have come back and are going to vote the Democratic ticket. Many of the Re- publicans have also returned to their first love, and none who are really claimed by the Republican organi- will vote anything but a Republican ticket this fall. There was some little disaffection among Democrats before Congress adjourned, but there is none new, and as the masses better understand the measures passed by Congress at the late session and realize more ful ly the benefits derived from their party legislation there will be the same old-time enthusiasm, and every mother’s son of the real Democratic element will march up to the polls on election day as proudly and as fearlessly as of your and cast the usual Democratic ballot from, top to bottom. And why should they not? Has not the past Congress—even though we did not get all we expected, be- cause of a fow traitors—accemplish- ed mere for the people than any Re publican Congress that ever conven ed at Washington’ Are not the ben efits of the legislatien enacted already apparent en every hand?

Was it any better, or, even as good, here, wheu the Republicans were in power, or during the period when Populists had control? No. No fair man point to a single condition that is an improvement over the present. Then why should Democrats, sbove all others, desire a change? They don’t desire it. These claims of the enemy | are all bosh. They ex hideous howling to f of the timid into their they may succeed in this rauk and file will stand have always stood. ! The fight in Bates county and in Missouri is, as it in Georgia, Arkaneas and other States where the | test has been the two old parties, the Democratic and the Republican.

Wells to create a foreign sentiment | of protest and reproach against such a method of euforcing justice. Cer- tain philanthropic persons have come over from England on akind of mis- sionary tour, with a view to promot- ing the interests of civilization by causing the rapists to be dealt with ina more considerate 1m vnner: and the colored people are thus eneour- aged that their race is being terribly wronged for the sole reason that it happens not to be white. It may well be doubted if such a crusade is | calculated to do any good. The in- terference of critics and reformers from other nations in the affairs of | this couatry is not an agreealba thing to start with, and the people of the South can not be blamed for resent- | ing it. However well-disposed these | individuals may he,they have chosen | au offensive way of manifesting their | virtue. They can not be supposed | to understand the situation as well | as those who are personally familiar | t ings. with it, and even if they did, a sense of {propriety shonld restrain them, from meddling with what does not | practically concern them or their country, when they can certainly | find evils enough at home to occupy | all of their time. It is much to be regretted, of | course, that so many lynchings oceur | in the South; but it is far more to be regretted that there are so many occasions fer them. If the negroes did not commit the atrocious crime for which this penalty is inflicted, | then the whites would not be in- flamed to summary vengeance. The violence begins when unbridled pas- sion assaults a white woman in a way that is worse than death: and the perpetrator of the hellish deed has no right to complain when the law is executed upon him in a swift and merciless manner, according to the teaching of his own villainy.

There is always an identification of the criminal by the victim herself when she escapes with her life. or there is other evidence equally positive and conclusive; and in a majority of in stances, confession precedes lynch ing. It would be better, unques- be duly observed with regard to thes» offenses;but there is something to be pardoned, nevertheless, to the pecu.iir indignation which they ex- cite, xnd which is the expression, after il, of one of the most eredit- alien- | ating her husband's affections, alleg \ing that by Vaugine's libelous re | marks about her relations with Me \Intosh, which had ouly been of a neighborly nature and those of a family physician to her on his part her husband became estranged from ; her and deserted her.

It has been discovered that Rob ert Tyler Jones, grandson of ex pres ident Tyler and first malé infant born in the white house, is starving io death in an attic on the outskirts of Washington. With him are his invalid wife and little baby. His uncle, John Tyler, Jr. who was a son of the President and his private secretary at the white house, was stricken with paralysis in July 1887, He had held the office of special wit- ness to certify to the destruction of canceled currency.
