Like the decision rondored two yoars o on the prohibi- Vou wnendmont bill, the court has son- teneed sovoral vory prominont repub- Lican officialy to a singlo term, and many aspirants of our party to “no term.” Morg_thun that wo are not disposed to sy nt this time, Governor Thayor of course is fully cupabio of diseharging the dutics of tho oxocutive offico and ho will no doubt en- donvor to serve the people to the best of his ability. But he has tarnished n lifo- long roputation by countenancing and londing himsolf to acontest which works runk injustico and s sure to bring dis- aster upon the ropublican party in the o vory distant future. There are wiso- neees who think that republican suprom- acy in Nebraska could only bo retrieved by ousting Boyd, That sightod politicians will class of short- roalize before they are much oldor that their prossure for the decision to oust Boyd was monu- blunder mental DEMOCRATIC SCHEMING. The republican leaders of Towa have neod 1o keop a vigilant wateh upon the democratie schemo in that stato to in- augurato an independent movement and dreaw vepublican farmers to its support. There is ample evidence that a pro- grammo of this charactor has beon form- alated and that well known democrats aro actively engaged in earrying it out. A toall™ hus just beon issued, signed by life-long domocrats and renogade ropub- licans, which starts out with the declarn- tion that “the period has at last arvived when the friends of industrial form in lowa should associate them- solves for indopendent political action,” and suggesting an early state convon- tion of reprosontatives of farmers and labor ovganizations. The aim is to in- duce republican farmors to commit themsolves to this movement and by an oarly convention 10 put them in a posi- tion whore they can be mado to serve democratic interosts, Che ok teansparont enough, but it ousily mislond mon who are not familiar with such politieal expodionts and those who are roadily attracted by any movement projected in the name of *“roform.” There can be no reasonable doubt of the domoeratic origin of this scheme, and it is highly probablo that it had its inspiration in the same source that con- coived the plan of working the southern allinnce in Iows, a plan which the intel- ligent members of the allinnce in that stuto have generally refused to countenanoo, But wherever inspived it is unmistakably a demooratic move, and its oxposure as such aught to enable the ropublican managers to checkmate it with vory littlo dificulty. I'he demoeratio leadors in the country uro not without hope of carrying low this yoar, Thoy regurd it as a doubtful stato, warranting a vigorous effort on their part to win. Thoey witl undoubt- odly make such an effort and the repub- leans of the state may count on having 10 battle not only against a:l the sehemes and expedionts which the loosl demo- cratic lendors may devise, but agninst the plans of the shrewder managers olse- whore, Theso fully approciate the pres tige which democratio succoss in lown this yoar would give the party, and they of labor and no uso of money 1o win success 1t will not be Wise 1o encourage overcontidence among ver, | republicans, Tt is bottor that they should | undorstand that thoy have a task be- fore them thar will eall for un- consing vigilance and untiring | | work.

The country is fairly pros- THE porous, and new markets aro opening to | incromse i prosperity. The national | | sdministeation is cleun, able and prac- | tieal. The agricultural interost has fewer reasons for compluint than for | many yours, and the outlook for it was never more choering. Nono of the pro- | phecies of evil made by the opponents of " | | the republican party have beon verified | Those nre some of the gene ul fuets upon which the republicans can securely buse | their clabm to popular support, while far ns the administeation of | stato affairs is coneernad the democrats | will hardly venture to invite compari- | | wonw with precoding administrations, \| So far, then, as the facts and argu- | mouts are concorned, the situntion is | | | 8o strongly in favor of the republicans of Town, and they have but to use them wisaly and vigorously to veguin full con- trol of the state government.

WEDNESDAY. 1891. PARALYZED THEIR PASTOR.' MAY 6, Disgraceful Foenos Enncted by the Trustees of a Now York Oburch, [ HIT THE MINISTER WITH THE BABL[.I Sivaenties, N. Y., May 5 —Troubie has | | been brewing for some tume in the Baptist church at Madalina, Duchess county. Eight | months ago when the church was without a pastor, the trustees engnged the Rev. J. H Boyse, promising him that he could hold the position for one year. During the past month certain of the trustees wished a chauge, and Mr. Boyse roceived notice that his resignation was desired. The reasons were merely of & whimsical nature, and not sufiicient to even hearken to. He refused to consider the matter, and went right along with his rehgious duties, But the trustees became persistent, and said they would bring the matter before the courts, The pas. tor mude no objection, believing that his position would be sustained by such a mo S0 it was done, and Saturduy of this week was the day set for the il Notwithstanding the fact that the law had been appealed to, the energetic tructees de- sired to proceed in their own way, and so Rov. Mr. Wood, a former pastor of the church, was engaged 1o fill the pulpit on last Suuday. This move, it was said, was made without Mr. Boyse's knowled ge. TLerefore, on Sunday morning when he appearcd he found the pulpit occupied. Mr. Bovse is a man of very determived charactor and the congregation were surprised to see him take aseatina pew among the auditors, But when they attended servicos that evening Mr. Boyse was seated behind the pulpit Word was passed around the congregation, and those present were asked to disregard the pastos requests, as he had usurped the place. When the bell stopped tolling, Mr. Boyse rose and gave out hymn No. 61. Then he read, with a steady voic zas,n0d stopped. The choir, however, t sine, Nothing daunted, the clergyman lifted his volee and sang the nymn alone, the congre. gation remaining silent, The hymnfinished, the pastor took up the bible and commenced to read therefrom, but he had hardly finished a verse when one of the trustees, Robert Worthington, ran up the aisie, mountod the steps and snatched the book from the reager’s hands. ot contont with that, he sei d the Rev. Mr. Boyse, hit T en They Dragged Him Out of the Pulpit by the Hair and the Police Called on to Interfer | him over the head with the bible, and dragged him from the pulpit by the bair. The other trustees ran to their confrere's assistance and OMcer Fore ent, was asked to arrest the refused. By this time the church was in an uproar. Sever ¢ women faintedand the children were screar. ing. The moment the trustees released the clergyman he reasconded the pulpit and remarking that the services bad better come to an end, began to pronounce the benedie- tion. Only three words, however, of the sacred prayer left his lips, for Trustee Worthington again jumped upon the platform and again dragged the pastor down, Thie time Fred Ross. Charles: Mooro and Oficer Minkloe seized Worthington and prevented any more hostile demonstrations, Rev Mr. Boyse left the church fol- lowed by nearly the whole congregation, whose sympathies had become enlisted in his favor, During the disgraceful proccedings Mr. Boyse did not offer the slightest resist- ance, but submitted to the indignities with- out complaint. It<ds not believed that Mr, Boyse will cause Mr. Worthington’s arrest, and it 18 equaliy certain that the popular voice is now with him, he having won every- one's respect by his action, It is said that the action of the trustees in trying to get rid of the Rev. Mr. Boyse was due to the in- fluence of a Mr. Pedo, who wished to get rid of the pastor 1 order that his son-io-law, Rev. Mr. Morris, might be recalled to the church as pastor, from which he resigned a few months ago. THE BARNABY POISONING, who was pres- usurper, but ho Eviden cs of Arsenic Destroyed in the Post-Mortem, Dexver, Col., May 5.—Prof. Headden has reported to District Attorney Stevens that he has received for analysis a piece of liver, the empty stomach, some kiduey and some minute pieces of brain of the late Josephine Baroaby. The amount of viscera, he says, might make it very dificult to determine the presence of arsenic uuder the conditions which surrounded the case. Mrs. Barnaby was treated by her attending physician in such a way as to eliminate this poison from the system. Prof. Headden says: *“Itis unfortunate that the stomach was not opened during the post-mortem examination. It subsequently burst during the process of decomposition, and whatever conteuts there were mingled with the fluid in the jar in woich it and the other viscera were placed. The kidney was cut open during the post-mortem. This was entirely propor, but the costings of the stomach were not exammed to seo whether tney were inflamed. The liver should have certainly been given to me for investigation. I expected also to find the brain. The minute varticlos of that organ were not larger than the end of your fingerand are not of any utility in making an avalysis. The splee should also huve been preserved and given to me.'" From this statement it woula seem that no arsenic was found in the viscera. When the £rana jury commences its investigations into the cause of Mrs. Barnaby's death it will have u difficult task before it, siuce all the necessary evidence has been removed. Mrs. Barnaby's Will. Provibesce, R. L, May 5.—The principal features in the Barnaby poisoning case ves- terday were the acrival of Mrs. Edward Ter- rell of Chester, Pa., accompanied by Lawyer Rose, who drew up the will, and the disclos- | ure of what is in the will. The will which Attorney Rose preseuted in the wunicipal court oday, 15 the one which he drew up for Mrs, Baroaby last winter. It makes Dr. Thatcler Graves her exeoutor.
