WASHINGTON, D C0., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1892. Brother Dana—« Excuse THEY SAY, The sheet of the convicts, the Pilot, will be attended to in due time, Penitentiary birds certainly have got cheek. Common thieves often endeavor to put honest men on a level with themselves. When Ambler and Myers are jadged by a jury of twelve meu they will know what it is to tell the trath. The notorious blackleg behind them will hear something drop in a few days. He laughs best who laughs last. There never wasa time that a horge was so sure footed bat tn tt he Wian't gtumble. Who will vouch for Billy Cook’s voracity ? The conspiracy will not work. It will be exploded and don’t you forget it. About two dozea witnesses were summoned who did not know any thing about the case, Once upon atime a man dug a pit for his enemies, but fell in it himeelf. The pit you dig for others you will very often falliato yourself. Wateh your friends. The sheet of the convicts will soon lose its Pilot. The convict in the L[uterior de- partment will sail under another alias soop. The BEz is here to stay. A thief will attack an honest man. The signed checks were not pro duced in court.

The number of men killed and injured by the explosion of gas at the Philadel- phia and Reading Company’s Sterling Run Colliery at Shamokin, Pa., last Ot these five are dead and the remaining six so badly burned and mutilated that small hopes for their recovery are entertained. When the explosion occurred it was ac- companied by a heavy fall of coal, rock and debris, which imprisoned five of the miners. A rescuing band was at once organized, but owing to the unsafe con- dition of that part of the mine in which The BEE knows that out of the!the explosion had eccurred and the thousands uf democrats now hold. ing government places, both male aud female av trouble will be experi- enced in getting a handsome con- tributien, there are not a few of bis 8cxes who areloud in their} exclamations of party feeling and who deem it a duty, (which it is) to contribute to the welfare | and perpetuation of their party.! If their pretentions are false they will remain so when the time comes to prove their loyality. How does this apply to the republican | party? are we to be silent iu the premises and occupy the political stool of do-nothing while the eve- mies are musterivg and fortifying themselves publicly in every way | within the range of our every eye~| sight? No we are equally honored by every tie of manhood to meet the issue half way, oppose it by similar ¢ffurts, every good thing bas its price anlits reward, the price of liberty is eternal vigilauea, purity, honesty and virtue have their own rewards.

Ata meeting of the striking switch men on the “Big Four” railroad at Co ‘umbus, Ohio, it was decided to rescind the compromise recently made and re- new their demand for the Cincinnati scale, This has come about because the strikers have received word that the switchmen in Dayton, Springfield, In- dianapolis and Cincinnati will strike in sympathy if the demando: the © lun bus men is not allowed. ‘Jie Peunsyl- vania and the Baltimore and Ohio men have given notice that if their demands are not granted they will strike.
