Now is the time when each voter should study the situation and at the Battle of the ballots in november vote candidly and intelligently. Judge Thurman has yielded to the pressing invitation from democrats of Chicago and will address them on saturday the 25th instant. The Wheeling intelligencer the leading Republican paper of West Virginia which promptly rebuked the Republican papers that tried to lie the free whisky Plank out of the platform continues to advocate the policy of removing the tax. Quot every line of the internal Revenue Law a it says Quot should be wiped off the statute books. There is not one Good reason for retaining one line of that system. It is a clog on american James g. Blaine the commander of the Republican forces says Quot trusts Are largely private affairs with which neither president Cleveland nor any private citizen has a right to it would seem then that the Republican party has become the Champion of these swindling combinations and Are opposed to having them broken up. That is rather Cool sympathy for poor Labouring men. The democratic party says Reform the Tariff that makes these trusts possible. The republicans of the Senate Are on the Quot anxious seat and striving to Frame a Tariff Reform Bill. They know that the country demands it. They Are Between two lires for if they introduce a Tariff Bill it will take the starch out of their protective cry. For they would like the democrats be called free traders and if they do nothing to relieve the tax Burden they fear they will lose on that ground. Which Side of the log to fall off on is the question now. The solid logical arguments advanced in the Campaign by the democrats Are causing consternation in the ranks of the enemy who have nothing hut Ilam Beau processions to meet with. The men who think to Stampede the voters with shouting ringing of Bells and tooting of horns will find the people want bread before music necessaries before luxuries. The enemy have striven their Best to make a contest Between capital and labor but labor will maintain its right without such a dealer. The Independent a truth telling Michigan paper edited by a ski let Corbit says Quot voters Are asked by their ballots next november to decide which they will have cheap clothing or cheap whisky the Republican platform offers the voter cheap whisky for his own consumption a Gallop to the Devil and a drunkards grave for less Money than under present conditions. The democrats on the contrary propose to retain the tax on this luxury and give the voter his wife and children better clothing for less Money. Take your choices cheap whisky for yourself or Low priced clothing for yourself and family ? a an important decision has just been rendered in the United states supreme court in regard to Selling liquors on navigable Rivers such As the Ohio and others. The decision was rendered in the Case of l. N. Clark Captain of the Mayflower which navigates the Ohio and Monongahela Rivers Selling liquors on these Waters and avoiding the Brooks High License Law of the state of Pennsylvania. Justice Hala decided it illegal and was of the Opi Ninion that Selling liquor by retail on a Steamboat so licensed was not an incident of the right of Public navigation but the Sale can be regulated by the state through which these Waters flow. Congressman Outhwaite of Ohio said in the House on the 14th inst., that a High Tariff Lias no effect upon the Price of Wool which is regulated by the Law of Supply and demand and he quoted a remark made to him by an Ohio Wool grower that he would surrender All the Benefit his Wool product derived from the protective Tariff for the privilege of buying one untaxed pair of pants. This suggests a train of thought that the Quot protectionist Wool grower will do Well to follow to its legitimate conclusion and if it does no to make a a free trader of him Well miss our guess a mile a mile and a half or two Miles. No wonder that or. Blaine believes in trusts. Or. Carnegie has been coaching , the vouchers show that 11,000,000 envelopes have been used in distributing speeches of the members of Congress. The United states Senate wrestled with two subjects Friday which strike the people directly As much needed measures Over head electric wires and non mailable matter particularly that of an obscene character in which the Law has been evaded heretofore. The National committee taking evidence concerning contract labor have taken considerable evidence to the effect that Levi p. Morton has had imported labourers in his employ under contracts made before coming and Lias still at this time. This shows How Well one of the Republican Standard bearers protect american labor. The editor of the advocate still takes exceptions to our statement about the Wheeling it pc Lake Erie Railroad company importing italians and goes off on a technical term. He will please remember that Railroad companies and manufacturers procure these labourers through agents who make Money at the business and hence Are As antagonistic to the american labourer As though they made the contracts direct and Are equally guilty of violating the Law. The san Francisco examiner declares that the hawaiian kingdom supplies a fourth of san Francisco a imports and takes a tenth of All her exports. The reciprocity treaty with that kingdom has caused since it went into effect the building on the Pacific coast of forty sailing vessels and fourteen steamers for the Trade while the number of vessels employed in it has increased from 117 to 174 and tonnage from 81,417 to 118,847. The american Flag covers three fourths of the Trade to the i Kawaiin Island and 900 workmen in san Francisco sugar refineries owe their places to the abolition of Tariff restrictions on hawaiian Commerce besides a Large number of sailors riggers ship carpenters stevedores Etc. The examiner asks if Hawaii is the Only or greatest country in sight. During the whole fourteen months Blaine was absent he was never reported As having visited a Quot Colliery a an English manufacturing establishment nor did he investigate the poor quarters of London to look into the actual condition of labourers. We were regaled with his interviews with the Prince of Wales his Quot breakfasts a his attendance at the Quot Garden parties of the nobility with whom were told he was a Quot great the last months of his stay in Europe he was paraded through Scotland by Carnegie in a Quot tally to coach drawn by four horses. Carnegie a Scotchman hoped to make himself important to his old countrymen by making a vulgar display of his wealth which he was Able to accumulate by plundering american workmen in hauling through Scotland what he styled the Quot uncrowned King of America.

Pease a theory is that they were broken for the purpose of extracting the marrow by a race of cannibals. In this particular lot were portions of the frames of an adult and a child. It is supposed and the supposition is based upon accepted conclusions that the adult was a person of some distinction in whose funeral ceremonies the sacrifice of the child entered. That some such ghastly orgy did take place is further evidenced by the presence of the Shell of a Turtle and the Antlers of a Deer. Many of the Bones Are in a Fine state of preservation but others of a More spongy nature arc soft and crumble under the touch. In a jaw Bone several Loose White Teutli gleam and rattle their White enamel protecting them from the influences which were fast reducing that human form to its original dust.
