I4SHED EVERY WEDNESEDAY. SMITH AND PBOPBIETOBS. ID Advance. largest Circulation In fbe County INDIANA MAY 16, 1888. OF the eight Eebublieans who were candidates for the Presidential nomination at the Chicago Convention in 1880 four aie dead and four still live.

The dead are Grant, Garfield, Washburne and Conkling. The living are Blame, Edmunds, Sherman and Windom. practicable! any what the free trade people want, bat it has been and IB sustained by an overwhelming popular sentiment. Pot it the Republican party is to be crecited, and unless beaten by the Third Party Prohibitionists on one aide and the combination of Democrats and liquor elements on the otherft will be the Republican party that the people of the State wiir be indebted for the chance to decide by popular vote whether they will have total prohi- rilion in the manufacture and sale of THE Braddock strike is virtually men are rapidly returning to work on the Company's terms. The Western railroad strikes are also over, the men having concluded to take work wherever they could get it, as the employers will.

The striking brewers in St. Louis have also backed down. THE Supreme Court of the State decided that the Judges of the license court have discretionary power under the Brooks law and that no man is invested with an absolute right to sell liquor, that the law was formed with a view to curb and regulate the evil of liquor selling and not with a view to increase its sale for the purpose of revenue. the eminent lawyers are unable to make wills that will sustain in jnatters upon which they have set their hearts, and their last testament is shown to be worthless, it is not much wonder men possessing large means prefer to dispose of it in their lifetime, or, failing to do that, are content to let the State distribute their fortune. In the majority of instances, it is the most sensible way.

The latest instance illustrating a miscarriage of this nature, is found in the will of the late General Brewster. intoxicating liquors or not It is this direct' movement guided ly rapidly increasing temperance sen- iment within the Republican party, which is to accomplish practical re- brm. It has been opposed by the Democrats almost in a body, not only here but in other States; obstacles have been thrown ia the way by the Third Party Prohibitionists, but it is this movement which has withdrawn from the Third Party many of those who were once its most important support It is this also that made the Harrisbnrg meeting of yesterday so noticable for its want of numbers and enthusiasm when compared with former conventions. The temperance worker who seeks results does not work with the Third Press. IN Philadelphia was proven be- during the examination of applicants for license, that whiskey purchased at $3 per gallon can be retailed at five cents a drink, and ar profit of $10 made on a gallon.

This must be the kind of whiskey that Is said to impart a warmth like unto a procession as it goes down the throat, and, like the liquor that is sold in Australia, three drinks of which will make a man stone his grandmother. It is comforting to know that the courts are weeding out the five cent under the high license act.

THE Third Party Prohibitionists completed the work of their State Con- vei ion by the nomination of a Candida for supreme judge and candidates for and naming delegates te the National Convention to be held at Indianapolis. They had adopted a platform ou the previous day, but it cat. not be said that it contains anything that had not been expected. It is not the purpose of the Third Party Prohibitionists to be satisfied with any temperance reform of a practical and ijecharacter and they condemn every stqTlBNihat direction taken by -j any other party.

-jThey are undoub- ted iy sincere and "njust have credit for that audyet intelligent enough to know that they can never hope to accomplish anything through "xT their party organization. The Convention just held lacked the numbers and the enthusiasm for it. In this respect it was not equal to some former gatherings in this State. The cause of this is not far to seek.

A freight train consisting of seventy five care, bound for Williamsport, became disconnected by the breaking of a coupling and the engine and three cars ran half a mile before the crew discovered that the train was divided. The first section awaited the arrival of the second at the foot of a heavy grade, and the two brakemen losing control of the second section, dashed into the first section, causing an explosion in the third car, which was loadened with Dnpont powder. At the scene of the accident the railroad runs along a steep hill, at the bottom of which etood two rows of houses occnpied by Philadelphia Beading Coal and Iron Company employes. On the hillside stood a little cottage occupied by John Quinn and family, four beys and two girls. The force of the explosion wrecked the building, and the stove set fire to the ruins.

Quinn with his two little girls were burned to ashes. The boys escaped with slight burns. Simon Eerwicks family consisting of Mary and Willie Covernaugh, adopted children, aged eight and fourteen years; David Kerwick, aged eight years; Alice Kerwick, aged five years, and his wife and new born babe. Kerwick carried his wife from the burning building, but the children were burned to death. Thirty persons were injured.

In all twelve cars were destroyed and seventeen houses with their furniture. All the windows in the Locust-Gap Church and' school were broken and the door blown off. In Mt Carmel large store windows wer broken. The total loss is estimated $75,000. Clarke, a farmer livin near Decatnr, 111., recently lost 1 head of cattle which he had been feed ing all winter on wheat straw.

PERSONS who are contemplating building this season find it difficult to secure good roofing material. Iron is expensive and requires constant attention while pine shingles are of an inferior quality and do not last long. The difficulty haa been solved by Sheriff Dougherty who has brought te this market a large lot of cedar shingles.

These are of the best quality and will last many times as long as the common white pine shingles. They are selected and when one purchases a thousand cedar shingles he gets what he buys. These shingles can be seen at Dangherty's Planing Mill in this place. Price and quality cannot but please. THEY had an interesting court at Richmond last week, before 'Squire States and a jury.

Glair's farm, a mile south of town, is attracting some attention. While drilling three small veins of gas were struck, but neither of them showed up enough to amount to anything and at a depth of 3200 feet the well was abandoned and plugged at a depth of 750 feet and another plug put in at the top af the hole. The other day some boys visited the well and finding some gas escaping, they put a match to it and quite a flame shot up. They attempted to extinguish it but failed and it is burning yet. A 5-inch pipe has been placed over the hole and the flamesed leap several feet out of the end of the pipe.

When it is considered that the gas must force its way through two pings and 700 feet of water it is pretty evident that it ia there in pretty strong force. The volume of gas is much greater than shown while the well was being drilled. Memorial Day. At a recent meeting of Camp 177, Sons of Veterans of this place, it was decided to with Post 28, G. A.
