It may readily be admitted that the
number of voters in Pennsylvania who
can be subjected to the corruption of
fear by partisan employers and liosses is
small when compared with the mass.
But the humblest and weakest citizens,
under a wise and equitable system of
laws, are entitled to protection in the
exorcise of suffrage', not merely for
their own sakos, but in the highest pul
lic interi St. Small as the number of
citiens needing this protection may lie,
it is yet large enough to have inspired
in party machine managers a deep hos
tility to the Ballot Reform bill.
It is the duty of the woakingmen of
Pennsylvania to protect such of their
fellows as .may lie subject to the inllu
ences of corruption and intimidation
when exercising the elective franchise.
This duty could not le more effectually
jierfoniied than by demanding the pas
sage of the Bullot Reform bill now be

Jinttown, Sterling, Ieith, Davidson and
Oreat Bluff floats. Great suffering is
reported among the strikers. At head
quarters it was said that a dozen families
were starving and many strikers were
calling for aid. The feeling against the
leaders is becoming bitter and threats of
what they might expect if the strike is
not soon settled are freely made. Unless
i there is a radical change in the situation
verv soon it is thought there will lo a
stamiiede among the strikers to return
to work."
Tut expenditure of the billion Con
gress says the Philadelphia Rcnl is
such a liewildering total that it is hard
to gra.-p it. It has to lx divided up and
thought of in seperate sums. It
amounted to s?2,0 (0,000 per day while
Congress was in session. Counted in
silver dollars there was a metal weight
of :.tA( tons. TliLs would make an
outlay of 't tons iter day, or altout $2j
a piece for each Senator and Represen
tative. For the two sessions of o(0 days
the e-qienditure was at the rate of $23 a
second. This is a tolerable rapid gait.
It is not probable that the billion Con
gress will ever find its equal for rapac
ious profligacy.

Indian Uprising Feared.
excitement was caused this afternoon by
4 discovery that Indians had killed two
unknown white emigrants who were
camped at a water tank one mile below
this place. Nothing could be learned as
to the cause of the tragedy There were
no eye-witnesses. The bodies of the
emigrants were found dead at the tank,
and a number of Indians were seen tak
ing to the hills back of here. An upris
ing is feared. Indian Agent Fisher, who
j Was at Pocatello, was telegraphed for
and came on a sjtecial train. Deputy
Sheriff Roes left immediately for the
scene and took charge of the bodies,
leaving an armed posse on guard. Busi
ness is suspended and the citizens are up
inarms.
Altout one hundred armed mounted
men have left the itj- to demand the
surrender of the guilty parties. Should
the Indians refuse- trouble is sure to fol
low, as the pos.se are determined men.
Not an Indian was to be found in the
city an hour after the affair. The gov

Blaine. Jr., will soon leave for South Da
kota, gain a residence there, and-seeure a
divorce from her husband uuder the Iaw
of the state. The ground upon which the
application will be made will tie desertion

On Sunday afternoon three tnall boys,
sons of ThoniaV?,Iunce, a well-known citi
zen, of Frahklin township. Washington
Corihty, were playing along the pik and
found a partly empty glycerine can in a
fence corner near their home. The ltoy.
not understanding the nature of the dan
gerous stuff, stood the can In the road and
licgan throwing stones at it. One ntek
struck the can and a terrible explosion fol
lowed, which could lie heard for miles.
Two of the boys were badly bruised w ill
and probably die.
One hundred and thirty-seveu head of
cattle and three a--res of the sheds at the
East Liberty stock yards were destuoyed
by fire about midnight Monday night.
The Eastern Hotel adjoining the yards
narrowly escaped destruction, the guests
being compelled to flee from their rooms
In their night clothes. The tircmen were
however, successful In not only saving
this building but in preventing the flames
from covering more than three acres of
the yard. The cattle stampeded when the
fire reached them and rushed Into the
flames. One horse valued at fXn. belong
ing to a drover, was also burned to death.
Two sleeping coaches, runninc lietween
City of Mexico, San Antonio, and Wash
ington, D. C via Mexican National Rail
road reached San Antonio on Sunday in a
dilapidated condition. The Mexican train
to which they were attached passed through
a cyclone ami hall-storm near Tttreon last
Saturday night. So large were the hail
stones that the head light of tin- engine
and every pane of glass on one side of tin
train of cars were smashed as if they had
liccii struck by rocks. Several rsous
were injured and a Mexican at Torreon
Stat ion was killed. Those on the sleeper
w ho reachi-d Sau Antonio say the cyclone
must have created crcat havoc.
