The municipal elections in Indiana,
last w*vk. show complete deimK-ratic
triumphs all over, and there i* not a
cruuib of comfort for the thirvl-term mo
gul of Washington and Long Hranch. j
Shelby ville went *lem*vratic for the first
time in forty years. New All-any is
swept by the democrats, ami Jefferson

The Pittsburg Post jvuts it in this way :
The w * wis are burning in the Ni-rth
east and the buffalo gnats are coming
from the South-west; there are symp
toms of grasshopj>ers on the plains, and
yet there are people who a fleet to W
lleva that the radical jsirtv have noth
ing to do with these things. This is
precisely the view that old Pharoali
took when the frogs and lice aud locusts
overrun Kgvpt. He never would admit
that he was to blame for these inflic
tions.

Some of the state dc{>artnu'ntsat Har
ri*burg liave at last been relieved of the
ringstens that have occupied them for
the last dozen years. The Auditor <>cn
eral's department under Justus Temple,
is now in honest hand.-, and the depart
ment of the Sec'y of Internal Affairs,
under General M'Candletw, is filled with
subordinates who have been selected
solely with a view to honesty and effi
ciency—among these, as we stated in our
last issue, is Maj. Forster. of this county.
Bo far so good, but there is still the ex
ecutive department lliat needs a ridding
out, and a good democratic governor to
occupy it, and this order "to get up and
go" we expect to see served on Hartnuift
next fall. We must have a change—the
people desire it, and said so last fall, and
to make the cleaning out thorough and
complete, the democracy must make
good nominations; place men upon its
ticket who are not tainted with rings
and their corrupt practices. The democ
racy have promised economy and honest
government if power is placed in their
hands—and that promise must be held
sacred, else our party will fallliack, as it
should, into a minority. The jeople
have become tired of dishonest and un
fit men, and will no longer vote for such.
This is right, and only by taking a de
termined stand in that dim-tion can
rogues, plunderers, roosters and lobby
ists be kept from robbing the people.
The party that will succeed is the one
that practices as well as preaches hon
esty.
Another spoke flies out of the South
eran revolutionary political wheel that
is whirled at Grant. Judge Kelley has
wintered in the South, and devoted his
1 ensure hours to the study of the naat€-
riai and 'political condition of the recon
structed states. Like all disappointed
men, of whatever political faith, he is
forced to the conclusion that the black
man has peace, protection and unre
strained civil rights from all but thiev
ing carpet-baggers and abandoned scala
wags, who must trade on negro blood
and disruptions of race, or close out all
political hopes. The presence of the
military is denounced by Judge Kelley
as unnecessary, and of course a menace
to popular government,ami the Ku-Klux
organizations, which are disentombed
for every election campaign by Northern
editors and orators who need advertising
or office, he tells us exists mainly, if not
only, in the falsehoods of agitators, who
dare not welcome peace. Judge kelly is
a little later learning what any intelli
gent statesman should have known sev
eral years ago, but it is something to
have one of his strong partisan proclivi
ties to bear testimony to the truth w hen
it costs something of the favor of power
to tell it. Of course Judge Kelley won't
go into the Cabinet now, nor will he be
sought for to give advice at the White
House; but as truth willoutlive not only
the incumbent of the White House, but
the White House itself, he has made a
profitable investment, and he won't have
long to wait for the dividend. If there
is one thing that the people of the coun
try mean to have, at any cost to ambi
tion, it is—Peace! —TT/nr*.

We recently gave the decision of a
Fnited States Judge against the consti
tultouality of the civil riglits hill, ami
now it has received two more kick* from
I'. S, Judges Judge Hrooks, at Wil
miugtou, N. (\. May f. in the I nited
States District Court, iu iliarging the
Grand Jury, said the Civil liights bill,
in its criminal aspect, which was the ou
ly sha|-c in which it could come lvforv
the Grand Jury, was unconstitutional
and void.
On the same day Judge M*>rricl*of
the I'nited States l'istrict Court, eastern
district of Texas, in his charge to the
Grand Jury reviewed the civil rights bill
and expressed the opinion that all j>er
*ons have a legal right to have board
and lodging at an inn. transportation on
steamers and railroads or stag* .*, or an
entrance iu a theatre, while they do not
thereby acquire any social right* to hold
that a conductor of a railroad train can
not assign a sjavial car to ladies and
children and their attendants to the ex
clusion of all others, provided other pa*
sengers are furnished with other cars
with all necessary facilities for traveling,
would be to stab the social right* privi
leges and immunities. Therefore my
view of the act is that it vva* not intend
ed to affect social rights but civil aud
legal rights. In conclusion the Judge
stated that if it shall be made to appear
that any inn keeper, manager of theatre
or transportation agent has refu*ed prop
er facilities to any one on account of
race, color or previous condition, the
Grand Jury will be authority to find a
true bill against them.

Swindling the poor red man i- still
carried on by government agents. We
believe it was Simon < amcron w hostarted
in that kind of mean work and by it
made his tirst "raise" and gained his tirst
notoriety. Simon's operations were with
the Winnebagoes. while officiating as
government agent: hence he still pes
by the nickname "Old Winnebago."
Below we publish a report from a I*.
S. military officer who exposes the
shameful manner in which the Indians
are cheated out of their rations by
Grant's agents, who pocket the ill-gotten
gains and get rich whilst the joor red
man of the western wilds is starving. It
is this conduct on the part of thieving
agents, that causes the Indian wars ami
bloodshed on the frontiers, by which
the livesof hundreds of innocent souls
are sacrificed. The Indians are wrong
ed and then take revenge and satisfac
tion after stub a manner as their instinct
and wild nature teaches them, while
the rascally white government
agents arc the bottom cause:

Assistant Ad'jut int-tienrral, Hca-iquar
, tera Drpartmrnt of thr Missouri.
SIR: Frequent complaints having been
made by Indian* camped near this post
that they are suffering from hunger, I
have made an investigation *t>nd find that
the complaint* are well founded. The
' following is the ration allowed by the In
• dian Department:
Beef, three pound* (gross on the hoof) ;
, one day in fifteen three-quarter* of a
oound of bacon i* issued in lieu of beef;
flour or bread, one half pound. To the
hundred—Rations, four pound* of coffee,
eiget pound* of sugar, cne pound of salt,
one pound of soap and one half of tobacco.
This ration was established when the 111
dian could parity support himself by hunt
ing. With no other help it i* barely
enough to prevent hunger. It is not, how
ever, all issued. There is at the agency no
flaur. and not over one-third the author
ised amount ha* been issued during the
present fiscal year. There is no sugar, and
not over two thirds the regular issue has
be> n made during the same lime. The
beef lately issued ha* been shamefully bad.
It i* so poor that the gross is altogether
out of proportion to the net weight. One
of my officers reports the following as'
coming directly under hi* notice within
the past few dy : A beef just issued
broke down in beir.g driven less than two
miles from the agency to tho Indian vil
lage, and the ebief was forced to send men
to kill it and bring the beef into camp. The
Indian agent, Mr. llaworlb, has been ab
sent Several weeks, the acting agent, Mr.
Howard, acknowledges that the b*ef late
ly issued was unfit for food, but stutes that
it was all he had for issue. Under these
circumstances I havo directed the Assist
ant Commissary of Subsistence of the post
to issue full rations of flour, or bread, and
sugar to those prisoner* of war who have
been, until new, fed by the Indian De
partment, that department asserting that
after this time they will be able to furnish
beef of a better quality. It is not reasona
ble to suppose that tho Indians would re
main here and starve when a long day's
ride would tuke them to the buffalo coun
try, and were they once out hostilities
would soon be renewed. Including the
issues made by the military authorities
under the above order, we will be feeding
less than one third of the Kiowa* and
Comanches who are here restrained from
hunting. This new issue will, however,
bo a great relief to all, as when the provis
ions are out in one lodge the occupants go
to another, where if there is food is is nev
er refused. The number to whom we
were before issuing is '2BO. In addition to
this issue* are made to fourteen prisoners,
who are confined in the gunrdshouso, and
attached to companies for rations. Before
closing I would state tlmt the condition of
affair* at the Wichlto Agency i* wore
than here. There has been no flour there
for A long time. The agent i ab-'uit. and
flirt Indians are killing and eating their,
horse*. I am, sir, very respectfully yoqr j
obedient servants

In former days the democratic part*
resisted the creation of corporations b>r
purposes that could In* reached by indi
dividual enterprise, and in ms•* win re
they were considered indhqwni-iblc it
was insisted by the sunt' jurty that the*
should bo permitted to own only so
much land .is u.i- absolutely necessary
to carry on their business. Vftcr this
-afc and salutary ground was partially
yielded.it was still held bv the demo
cratic administrations that in no case
should aixirporation.be permitted Uphold
more than 3.000 acres <>f land. The ter
rible evil of a departure frmn these
wholesome doctrines is now apparent.
Thousand* of laborers are to-day thrown
out of employment, thousand* of fami
lies are threatened with want, and the
whole business of the country is crip
pled. thwarted and oppressed, the public
peace threatened, everybody injured
and taxed by tin- attempts of the hug*
coal mining corporation- to dictate the
wage* that shall be paid to Workmen. It
is no excuse that there are also wr<ngs
on the other side. These wrongs arc
the legitimate results of corporation dic
tation. AH the evils emanate from that
same source. If coal mining, like
farming and the majority of met lianii al
pursuits, were left to individual enter
prise, there would be no difficulty, no
strikes, no starvation, no complaints of
tyranny in the mining regions, but eve
rything would in that quarter be as
smooth and clear n- sunshine.
The existunce of the corporations is
the great trouble, hither they must be
gotten rid of or thousands of white peo
plo must be practically enslaved. The
lower the wages become the more op
pressive will the corporations be in their
exactions. The struggle for riddance
from the great evil will of course ben
desperate one. The |>ower of wealth
unscrupulously used over executives,
legislatures, courts and people will have
to be contended against. Vet there is
but one remedy and that i- in the titter
destrnctioltof all corjiorations for mining
pur|>oses. and if it becomes neces-ary to
destroy railroad charters lot thciugotoo.
It is all poppy cock to maintain that
charters "vested rights," may not be re
pealed. That is reserved bv the consti
tution from every* charter. I'ntil that
struggle is successfully prosecuted there
will be no permanent jHMiee in the coal
regions.
Borne idle fellow with lots of time
hanging on liis bands has made a eah il
lation of the eost of the speeches of all
the members of the legislature in the
last session. This is done by ascertain
ing the cost of a page of the Legislative
Journal and multiplying it by theamottnt
of pages consumed by each member.
The statistics thus prepared are not in
(Hirtant except as showing that in many
instances the members who talked the
most performed the least service. It
was frequently charged during the last
session tlint the republican members of
the house who assumed the leadership
of the minority deliberately wasted pub
lie time witli frivolous s|Ht*ehes in order
to throw the responsibility.on the dem-
ocratic majority. Proof of the justice of
the charge is contained in this table.
The leader of the republican minority of
the house and the chief obstructionist of
of the public business was Mr. Mitchell
of Tioga. The speeches of this member
cover thirty-six pages of the Journal and
cost $543.12. Next comes Mr. Wolfe of
Union, who constantly interrupted the
business of the session and whose
speeches cover twenty-eight pages of
the Journal at a eost of fll't.'l.'JO. The
'third ill the list is Mr. Christy of Alle
gheny, who was constantly on his legs
and consumed twenty-seven pages of
the Journal. Not a democratic member
of the house who was in charge of im
portant measures of legislation, which
he was obliged frequently to explain and
defend, consumed nearly us much of the
public time as any one of these three
leaders of the opposition. The demo
crats would not have tolerated in one of
their own member what they submitted
to from these petty orators of the minor
ity who babbled away from day to day
with the deliberate piupo-c of hriic/ing
the house into odium and contempt and
of delaying or defeating the busines-- of
the session. They probably did not
that onroftheir own party friends
to kill time would measure their drivel
by the page and show how much it eg#/ j
the state.

the exeni-e* proved so interesting and
entertaining that their popularity in u-'-
mired. Tim e prizes, amounting in val
ue to one hundred dollars, were compe
ted for by nearly forty ladies and gen
tlemen, the words to be pronounced
having !>< en previously selected ami
printed in large type ti|>n placard*
which were placed on a stand in full
view of the audience. During the evening,
."►jo words were pronounced, and* many j
of them sadly mispronounced, by tlie
contestants, Worcester Wing adopted
a> tie standard of pronunciation. Nine
of the ! oilij*ot i tors, including a promt- 1
nent innnidpal politician, failed on the
word "c-'ioiae," and two blushing young
ladies found theinselveaunable to utter
the wonl "hymeneal" as it should be,
while the winners of the three prizes
triumphed respectively on the word
"hostler," "harass," and "licorice." The
man w ho knew how to say "hostler" got
llfly dollars for saying it.
It looks as if the Supreme Court, hav
ing reached the conclusion that the Kit-!
foreeutent act is unconstitutional, with
held its decision to that effect in order
that the Republican party and the Ad
ministration might have time of grace;
wherein to unload the political stock
tiken in its iniquitous provisions.
Among the last official acts of Attorney-
General Williams the telegraph this |
morning announce* the suspension of
all Ku-Klttx prosecutions and other ,
legal proceedings under the law in ipies- (

safe to predict that these proceedings
will never be rwiuiiicd. The Attorney

SECOND ADVKNTISTS DISAP
POINTED.
The Chicago Tribune ha* u full account
of n hand of believers in the immediate
Advent of Christ who assembled on Mon
day, tho 19th test., in that city, expecting
that before midnight Christ would appear
in person. As various individuals have at
different times deluded number* of fellow,
ers with their interpretation of prophecies,
nJ have endeavored to stake the truth ol
a!i Scripture on their perianal calculations
of the time of Christ's appearance, this,
1 like the great Miller delusion, it full of in
' itruction snd warning.
Elder Thurinan, the leader, with about
150 of hit follower*, men, women and chiL
dreu, assembled in an upper .room, on
Monday afternoon. The hall was in the
third story, and i> a large, well-lighted
apartment, Long table* were arranged 'o
at to inclose a tqiinre, and on these a tub
tlantial suppef was spreiid. At the head
•if the hall, to the entt, wnt a tort of ruttic
canopy, arranged with evergreens and
oilier tort* of foliage, which wat there
when lliey kccur.d the hall, ilenealh tbis,
und raited upon a dait to at to elevate him
above the rett, tat Elder Ttiurman. The
•exes were divided, the men tilting to the
left and the women to the right of Elder
Thurman. In the square incloted by the
tablet were the basins, cwert and towlet
uted in the ceremony of fccl-washing
which wat one of the flrit ceremonies per
formed and in which Elder Thurman pro
eceded to follow the example of the Sa
viour in wathing the disciples' feel and
wiping them with the tow) with which he
wa* girded. In like manner the other*
proceeded to wash oneamoihcr't feet go
ing along in rotation, each taking the per
*nn titling next. There were tome nine or
ten basins, to that a number wore wathing
at the tamo time, and tboeereniony watnol
protracted. After tome other proceeding*
they partook of a hearty meal. A thun
derstorm occurring in the mean time,
tliey teemed to regard it at the precurtor !
'of the coming of the Lord. But the even
ing patted on and depression began to
vorge upon ilium nil, and especially upon
their lender, who, according to the report,
in tho Tribune, said, near midnight.
"1 confess that 1 begin to feel tad, and
my heart sinks within me. 1 have no time
tlxod at which I expect to see the Lord ex-
, cept midnight. But I did expect that lie
| would appear at Jerusalem when it was
I four o'clock in the afternoon here, und
then I expected the sign of the.Son of Man
1 will not despair to the lining sun, hut
how 1 i an extend the prophetic date* lon
ger than midnight, i cannot see. It ha*
i been my study for lhirtytwo yvars, und,
again and again, and yet again, have 1
examined all the prophecies to see whether
tlicic could he any mistake, but I could
tind none."
While ho WHS speaking, soli* and groans
went up continually from the assemblage
Many of the women wore weeping bitter
ly. Most of the little nos, wearied with j
the protracted vigil, were asleep, lying on i
the shawls and wrappings that had been j
placed in the corner. The men looked;
wistful and sad, but it was not yet 1-, and
some hope still remained. When the
luinute hand touched twelve, Tliuriiian
said, with a tremulous voice :
"Brethren, lean en my. arm no longer
M> reckoning is all up. 1 leave you In the
hands of (.lod. It is n* much n 1 can do to'
-•niggle on for myself. 1 will try to do the
hist 1 can If lliere is any more light to be'
had, i will search for it. 1 hid you fnre
v tdi "
Then followed a pitiful scene. Wouicnl
wrung their hands in bittei anguish ,
.Iroug men buried their tare* and wept !
and groaned The violent ilr>entit from
