K. Bruce will defeat the dem- ocratic party this year. Will he be blamed, Mr. Fortune? He never deserts a friend nor does he ever punish his enemies, The success of all men is what they ate able to do. If the New York Age should cease to be published, who would be blamed for it? B. K. Brace of course. He is responsible for everythi ythin that does and does not happen. He is a good man. Suppose Recorder Bruce took bis salary aud distributed it among certain people and they got drank ? He would be biamed for doing such au unwise act. It is rumored that he res i f ponsi- ble for the democratic division in Alabama. O! know that is giving him too much credit for doing that. Oar point is to show op the evils that he has been doing not the good deeds interred tn his bones. Then it a man does a good act we must not see it. Just the point exactly. Such are the characteristics of ambitious demagogues. You can find quite a onmber of them within the race. _ Watch the Ber’s new dress in a few weeks. Men who make promises should carry them out. Honorable men generally carry out their promises. President Harrison will be re- elected. When a new chief of police is ap- poiuted we shall have a colored de- tective. Disappoiatments come to the wicked. Honest men are never disaps pointed. Out of sight, out of man is what the dispondent lover sings these days, There is nothing small Lewis Douglass. When he acts, he has something to show for it. The Press Assoclation should be largely attended. Chris Perry, of the Philadelphia Tribune will be supported for the Presidency of the Press Associa tion at its next meeting. The Press Association has never been what it should be. Keep cut alleged correspondents and newspaper beats. about Make the association a necessity for editors to join. Some changes will be made soon. Never tell all you know at any time. Listen to all that is told you bat say buat little. Real estate is at a stand still in this city. The recorder is responsible no doubt. THE LATEST FASHIONS. As few people are in town to ad- mire the new goods, but few are displayed thus early in the season. Still it is always interesting to know what is laid upon the impor- ter’s shelves. The latest novelty displayed in dress goods is called the “whip cord,” which is similar to serge. It is changeable blue and green, blue and red, blue aud yellow, and in- deed every color which the fancy can indicate may be found combin- ed harmoniously with one another. Suk goods are striving for the old positionas Qaeen of all fabrics, during the coming season. The three leading Styles are ben- gelinos, changeabies and taffetas, although the plain style goods will appear later. A choice gown recently import- ed, is of silk tricotine—a species of soft corded material of a pale ame- thyst tint. For eariy Autmn many pretty capes and Pelerines are now being made. Black net is much used for trim. ming ander-skirts of colored strip~ ed silk, A namber of pretty jackets have been introcuced for the seaside. One of the prettiest is the “Mid- shipman. _ Another style is the Marquise jacket, with a Wateanu pleat in the middle of the back, one pleat over each front and the sides clinging. The greatest success of the sea- sou is the draped or qailled trim. ming falling from the shoulders to the bodice. Skirts remain plain with trim. ming round the foot only. Small and deep tlounces of un- bleached sprigged uet or lace are worn upon dresses of bastiste or foulard. In the country and at fashiona- blo watering places young ladies sport fanciful sticks, about mid- way up which 18 attached a hight wicker basket in which to place the fluwers, shells, leaves or other trea.ures to be found during the walk or excuasion. Capes and scarfs of black guip- ure are draped upon the shoulders with bows of black moire ribbon. Sashes of the same are worn with dresses Of any color, and generai- ly tied in tront. ‘he ribbon is uever more than two inches wide. A handsome travelling suit 1s of light brown cloth, trimmed with uarrow black braid. Plain, bell skirt and full Russian biouse, with pointed yoke and collar, edged with braid, A charming dress of salmon col- ored wollen veiling. Plain skirt with short train falling in heavy folds.

Keir Hardie, who represep‘s labor in- terests in the British Parliament, sent £100, which was contributed by Andrew Carnegie toward his election expenses, to the Homestead strikers, The Associated Press dispatch that Bud Lindsay, leader of the striking miners at Coal Creek, Tennessee, had been lynched, proves to be unfounded. He was taken out to be lynched, but was spared on promising to reveal all he knew. In consequence of the agitation which is being carried on everywhere in Cuba against the new tariff imposed by the home government, every cigar factory ip Havana except three has been closed, aa a protest against what the merchante and manufacturers regard as an intoler- able imposition. At a meeting in Boston of the repre- sentatives of the Knights of Labor, Cen- tral Labor Union and Building Trades Council, a committee was appointed and instructed to visit every labor organiza- tion in Massachusetts and solicit funds for the Homestead men, The organiza tions have agreed to raise $20,000 for the strikers. News has been received at Richmond, Va., that a desperate attack on Wise Court House, to secure the release of Talt Hall, an outlaw and murderer, is imminent. The attacking party is in possession of a cannon and a Gatling gun. A large body of men left Rich- mond to aid the guard at the Court House.

Important Railroad Decision. Judge A. P. McCormick of the United States Circuit Court of New York, has rendered a decision which will prove of considerable value to railroads and their security holders throughout the country. It provides that Railroad Commissioners may not fix rates for freight or passen gers which shall be binding upon the companies, but that such power shall re- side only in courts. An injunction wus granted restraining the railroad commus- sioners of Texas. STRIKES AND VIOLENCE. | LABORERS AND MILITIA ARRAYED AGAINST EACH OTHER. The National Guard Under Arms in New York- Governor Buchanan Calls Out the Militia in Tennessee Miners and Captured. THE SITUATION AT BUFFALO. The strike of switchmen in the rail- road yards at Buffalo, N. Y., assumed such ominous dimensions, owing to the burning of cars and other property, and the gathering of violent characters not directly concerned in the strike, that Governor Flower ordered an entire di- vision of the National Guard to the scene of disturbance. The presence of this large body of well-armed troops, num- bering 7,500 men, led to a cessation of attempts at disorder. The union switeh- men remain firm in their attitude, and the railroads are making every possible effort to move trains without their help. It seems doubtful now whether the 3witchmen will receive the helpexpected from the engineers, firemen and other train hands. Chief Arthur, of the En- gineer’s Brotherhood, who is in Buffalo, is well known to be opposed to the ex- treme li e of policy. The roads affected by the strike are the New York Central, Erie, Lake Shore ind Lehigh. The policy of the strikers is to induce all new men put to work ta join them. This has succeed in some cases, but the officials of the roads in- volved are confident of their ability to r- sume operations witheut the aid of the strikers, ‘The entire nationat geard of New York is held ready to proceed to the scene of the strike in case ef further disorders. Pennsylvania are also held ready to proceed to Sayre, the scene o the switchmen’s strie in that State, if their presence is : eeded. FIGHTING IN PENNE Anarchy reigned for three days during the past week im the mining regions north of Knoxville, Tenn. Over 1,006 miners captured three locomotives and several coal cars at Coal Creek and forced the engineers to take them to Oli- ver Springs, where about ninety-five convicts were employed in the miues of the Cumberland Ceal Company. ‘They arrived at Olivers about 4 o’clock, and at once planned an attack on the stockade where the conviets were confined. About 7 o'clock they assaulted the stockade and a lively battle proceeded. The stock- ade was defended by fifty picked guards and a company of thirty-eight militia men. Two companies of National Guards en route from Chattanooga via Harriman were compelled to take the side track a few miles from Olivers on .cgount of displaced rails. Hundreds of shots were exchanged, but no one was injured. The guards and militia finally surrendered to the strikers. The con- victs, guards and soldiers were loaded on a train of flat cars and the engineer at the point of a Winchester was compelled ‘o pull the train out in the direction of Kuoxville, The stockade was then burned to the ground. Over 3,000 miners then proceeded te Coal Creek, heavily armed. They cap sured two companies of militia sent out vo disperse them, and during the day made three desperate attacks on Fort Anderson, the convict camp there. A uumber were killed and wounded ov ooth sides. Capt. Anderson was seized by the rioters while conferring under a flag of truce, but the guard composed of 100 men refused to surrender and suc- cessfully hela the miners at bay unti! the arrival of Gen. Carnes, with 500 sroops, who dispersed the rioters about Fort Anderson and restored order. Capt. Anderson was released, after the capture »f 100 miners who were held as hos- sages. The miners lost about twenty nen killed and a large number wounded during the two days’ fighting. Several soldiers were killed. The latest reports indicate a general surrender of the ainers to the troops, who are gathering force. All over Eastern Tennessee organized militia, volunteers and sheriffs’ posses are hurrying to the front. Defeated General James W. Husted Has Bright's Disease. General James W. Husted, who has been ill since his return from the Repub: lican Convention at Minneapolis, is slowly sinking at his home in Smith streec, Peekskill, N. Y.
