Chii-msn. The Democratic Btate Convention in session at Liouisville, last Thursday, nominated Hon. J. Proctor Knott for Governor of that State. Ann Kmza, the nineteenth wife of the Brigham Young, was married at Lodi, on Saturday, to Mr.

M. R. Denning, a prominent citizen of Mau-eatie, Mich. The attorneys in the action of mandamus ta determine the const itui ion-all ty of the 8cott bill have agreed upon the 28th inst, as th time for arguing the ease before the Supreme Court. Dubbin Ward seems to be having a boom for Governor, and the Democratic party could not.

select a more faithful, honest and consistent Democrat than General Durbin Ward. The late Coal Miners' convention at Columbus decided that every mining district in Ohio shall simultaneously demand on Kept. 1, next, an advance in tke price of mining, and submit to no reduction before March 1 following Snow fell in considerable quantities' in several places in Ohio on Monday, the storm extending as far south as Cincinnati. At Bellefontaine it fell to the depth of five inches on a level. A heavy northwestern gale prevailed daring the day.

During the past six months 132 new national banks have been orgauted, with capital amounting to $14,958,000. The constitution imposes upon Congress the duty of providing the money for the country, but our wise law makers prefer to confer the privilegeupou corporations, and thus give them the power to make money scarce or plenty as may serve their caprice or cupidity. The Tewesbury taunery of negro skins and the hot-house graded school system, as stirred up in Massachusetts, are distracting public attention to a painful extent from the proper contemplation of the bloody shirt," and we don't see why Senator Hoar has not been furnished with the wardrobe of the late Eliza Pinkston, It most have been bequeathed to him. The visiting statesmen," trto, have sadly neglected the concession of proper posthumous honors to poor Eiiza, whose bouI went uushrived of perjuries they prescribed for her atterauce into the presence of an outraged God. A proper use of Eliza Pin kston's sweet memory would be eminently proper Just now.

The hoary Mr. Hoar Baa beeu hoarding it loug enough. Up with the bloody shirt and down with the Tewkesbury The American Register. Startling" Inrreann otgDivnrro in Ohio. Zanesvili.b, Ohio, May 11.

The subject of divorce proved a most ah sorbing topic before the Southern Ohio Episcopal Convention. The commit tee appointed last year made a report startling in its presentation of the relative increase of divorces. The report says; "At the ratio since 1870, in twenty years divorces iu Ohio will equal the marriages. Five-sixths of the divorces granted in 1882 were for causes not recognized by the Bible. Collusion and fraud prevail to an alarming extent," Tne committee recommend asking for the enactment of more stringent divorce laws, such as to require three weeks between the issuance of a license and a marriage, with guarded provisions for special exigencies, neither party to a divorce be allowed to marry within three years after divorce.

The Court shall i appoint counsel to represent absent or unwilling defendants, and where crim-! Jnal conduct is shown the Court shall order prosecution. The report was adopted unanimously. The committee was continued with instructions to prtition the Legislature as above, and take steps for the immediate formation of a divorce Reform League, Including Catholics and Protestants, but without official connection with auy religious ody. No more competent man or truer Democrat baa been or can be iu our judgment named to preside over the deliberations of the Renate of the Six-ty-Sixih General Assembly of the State of Ohio than De Witt C. Coolman of Portage Conuty.

Western Reserve Democrat. Texas is the banner Democratic State, and Is an example Republican newspapers do not refer to. In Texns there arc C.200 miles of railway linesj growing two miles dally. Tax is thir ty cents on $1,000. There are in the State treasury.

State bonds are worth 40 per cent, premium, and the debt of the State was reduced by that rare old genins, Governor Roberts, who doesn't believe in political thanksgiving days, $1,400,000 last year, leaving a balance of Texas bonds outstanding, and held mainly by Texas schools and institutions of learning, of 5 per oents. The State's taxable wealth has grown from $230,000,000 in 1877, to $410,000,000 in 18S2. The free school ftiud will sooa be $0,301,000, More than a million dollars were die' bursed last year among free schools attended by 295,000 pupils. A white and colored normal school provide homo made teachers. The University of Texas has 1 ,000,000 acres of choice land, and there is engrafted on the Constitution of Texas a provision enabling a poor man to invest So.OOO in real estate and making it hi3 homestead.

It cannot bo mortgaged or sold for uobt, and only conveyed absolutely by the joint deed of man and wife. Ex. Tins Republican papers and politicians dou't seem to entertain a doubt as to the constitutionality of the Scott bill. If their opinion ta well grounded it would seem te be a work of superer-rogation for the Legislature to submit to a vote af the people r.n amendment to the constitution authorizing the Legislature to do the very they have assumed the right to do in the absence of such a provision of the constitution. In submitting the amendment granting the power to tax the traffic in intoxicating liquors have not the Legislature virtually declared the Scott law unconstitutional The Scott liquor tax law taxes a big dazzling saloon where a large traffic is carried on the same that it taxes) a small saloon kept by the poor man.

This Is about the usual style of Republican justice. i i i Snlelde at Warren, Warren. May 17th. Yesterday morning Mrs, Clinton Mikeaell, wife of Infirmary Director Mikeaell, of Champion, committed suicide by hang iug. For some months she has glveu indications of being slightly deranged from severe prints in the head, and a close watob hr.s been kept upon her, as she has threatened self-destruction.

She eluded her watchers, procured a stoat, small rojie, passed1 it around her neck, tied one end to the balHSter at the head of the stairs, at.ti jumped, brsakiijg her neck. The population of New York city in 1763, three years after the eii.l of the Revolutionary war, was 23,014. ISy the census of 1880 the population was 1,206,299. The statistics show that the population of the city has doubled once every seventeen years, ami that the New York of today is sixty-four tunas as lutge ah the New York of a hundred years ago. The population of the United States has doubled once in twenty-five years, and In one hundred years the population of the whole country has multiplied itself by sixteen, but that of New York city has multiplied itself by sixty-four.

A city paper says thare arc babies now living who will know a Now York city containing ten millions of people, provided the rate of inorease of the last quarter of a century is maintained. Tke Boanty of Protection to America, An Englishman says there was in England last year a net increase of 30 per cent, in the production of steel, and that a greater increase is coming by the introduction of steel sleepers for timbers iu railroads. This is some of the pauperizing work of bloody English free trade. Why in this country where we protect our steel produced by duties of from 60 to To per the worktuen are all coming to a strike because the owners are obliged, by overproduction, to reduce wages. And as to extending the use of steel, our protective system is to make it too dear to be used for any purpose.

A country so perverse as to go on increasing its manufactures under free trade, while ours are dwarfed under high protection, ought to be biowu up with dynamite. Cincinnati News. Golden Argument. The goldites have labored hard to make the people believo that the compulsory coinage of $2,000,000 worth of silver per month wouid drive the gold all out of the country, and make this nation the dumping ground for all the silver of the world. One fact, however, is worth more than a bushel of sophisms.

Official statistics show that since January 1,1883. the United States Ims imported Gold Silver 1,659,442 Excess of gold "dumped" into this country $2,465,622 On the other hand, we exported during the same period Silver $4,840,834 And of gold, but 90,250 Excess of silver 'dumped" out of the country $4,798,584 At this rate it would svem ailvisaliie for Congress to provide for an increase or an unlimited of silver, at least until the foreign demand for the two metals shall become more evenly balanced. Ex. The annual expendilureof the British Government is about of th- present royal Government of tile United States, $400,000,000. Add to the latter snm the annual expenditure of the State Government, and newspapers, people will no longer be amazed that the beneficiaries of Ibeae Government expenditures, who also receive $1,200,000,000 in 'the shape of protection," rejoice in the country's (their own) prosperity, eveu while trade and business languish; while cotton does not pay the cost of production while factories and mills reduce production, and strikes are multiplied.

The surface, the upper crust," is full of fitness the stratum below is devoid of life or energy, or productiveness. The American Register. Virtually and practically, says the Chicago Express, the Supreme Court in a recent Kansas case, has decided against the Constitutionality of the! protective tariff system. It says Beyond a cavil there cau be no lawful tax which is not laid for a pub- lie purpose. To lay with one hand the power of the Government on the pro- perty of a citizen, and with the other to bestow it upon favored individuals to aid private enterprises and build up private fortunes, is none the less rubbery because it iH done under the forms of law and called taxation." WILD WINDS.

Property Destroyed and many Lives Lost. Chicago, May 19. It is learned here that a cyclone passed north of Kacine, about, 30 yesterday evening, and that a number of buildings were destroyed. No particulars wero obtainable, as the telegraph wires went down at that hour, and all communication northward and between this city and Milwaukee and St. Paul is cut off.

At ten o'clock last night an unusually severe wind and storm, accompanied by thunder and lightning prevailed here. Signs were whisked off and a general clatter prevailed about the streets. Fears were entertained that some frail wooden structures iu the outskirts would be blown down and the shipping outside he driven across to the east shore of Lake Michigan, A dispatch from Racine says that the first cyclone in the history of this section struck Racine at seven o'clock last night, passing through the extreme northwestern portion of the city, demolishing one hundred aud fifty houses aud barns, and causing a loss of life of about twenty. It is believed one hundred are more or less injured. The day ushered in bright and cool, with a fresh wind blowing from the southeast at noon the sky was overcast, and about four o'clock a sharp and electric storm prevailed, although little rain fell.

The sun again came out for about an hour. During the afternoon the temperature rose about twenty degrees; about six o'clock when heavy masses of clouds which again gathered in the west, portended a storm, the air was oppressively warm The cyclone was announced by a breaking of the clouds, which took on a whirling motion and struck the earth with a noise which might be compared with the roar aud rumbling of a thousand railroad trains ihunder-itigovera bridge. The path of the storm is a little over half a mile long and perhaps a quarter of a uiiie wide. In this territory here and there a building is left standing. Brick and frame structures alike collapsed, and their sites are marked only by heaps of formless debris.

Matty occupants of the houses escaped by seeking cellars and other jtlaces of comparative safety, but the cyclone came v. ith such lightning quickness that many were killed before reaching the cellars In only a few oases were the houses moved from their foundations. Those in the center of the storm simply exploded aud fell in ruins where toey had stood. Some nearer the circumference were turned around, and it is expected some light articles, such aa wagons, were swept iato the lake. The cyclone, as it moved from the city out on the waters of lake Michigan, presented a grand spectacle, such as is seen once in a lifetime.

The whirling columns of air seemed monster wreaths of smoke as they whirled over the watery expanse, bearing with them spiral columns of water, the spouts of the mariner. No ship that encountered this monster of ttie air could by anv possibility escape destruction. All the physicians of the city responded nobly to the call for assistance ana am wmtt tney couiti to alleviate the sufferings of the wouuded, who were at once conveyed to Si. Luke's and St. Mary's Hospitals, where they Will receive the best of care.

The dead were taken, some to the houses of friends and some to the court house. The inquest will be Lulu today by Coroner Romas. Gai.vkston, May 18. A News Den-isou special says Yesterday a cyclone struck the west side of this city about ten o'clock. A small house, occupied by the family of James Burch, was blown to atoms and Mrs.

Burch and a child were seriously injured. The Baptist church was entirely demolished and (he brick residences of Andrews and McMurtry wero blown down. Mrs. McMurtry and her mother were buried in the debris, but it is thought titey are not fatally injured. The colored school was torn from its foundation and badly wrecked.

Mauy houses were similarly moved. Fences and Bhade trees suffered. The cyclone lasted only a minuto but the ram fell In torrents. OMAHA. May 18.

A cyclone wept 'through the eastern portion of this state last evening, wrecking several houses and two school houses at Valpariaso and fatally injuring a woman and two children. The wires are down and details are unobtainable. The cyclone touched the southwest portion of Omaha doing slight damage to several houses but injuring no one. A Wipeil Out. Nashville, May 19th.

Particulars just received of the cyclone which wiped out the mining town of Empire, Monday evening. A large general store, kept by the coal company, was swept entirely away, not a plank or atone left. The goods were scattered in the woods iu every direction. Trees of the largest size were uprooted and carried some distance. The entire town was swept away iu a twinkling, leaving but one small house standing.

The destruction was complete. As soon as the storm abated the panic stricken people began to crawl out from the wreck, and a scene of fearful desolation met their startled gaze. All about them were dismantled houses, anil household goods in terrible confusion, and beneath heavy timbers were pinioned rouieti aud children, some dead, others dying. Two men aud a boy were killed outright, and a great many peopie eeverely hurt, but not dangerously. CIT THIS OU'S1.
