If the story below is true, it shows
how reckless and triffling are the cl.vt
>f men who are at the hesd of trades
unions and labor associations, who with
the *osa of a copper would throw the
whole country into confusion: In con
nection with the recent railroad strike,
the New York Evening Poet has * story
thct it vouches for, that the Erie lead
ers settled the question us to whether
they should strike, net upon the grounds
of expediency, but by mere chance. Tl e
men who had influence enough to bring
the strike about, or to prevent it, dis
cussed the question in a bar-room, by
the light of a tallow candle. The/had
no desire to join in a strike for higher
wages, their only grievance being that
certain men had been discharged whom
they would like to have reinstated In
stead ofweigbing theargumenta and tin u
submitting the matter to their hewer
judgineu-s, they agreed that they would
cast the candle on the floor, and abi-k
by the decision of a mere chance. If the
flame should go out ther would engage
in the strike, if not, they would con
tinue to work. They made the experi
ment. The candle dame expired, and
the men brought upon themselves the
strike.
Wm, 11. Kemble is one of the Penn
sylvania Cameron ring leaders, and does
not like the Hayes administration, aud
charged that Schurs, one of the cabinet
officers, who is now inaugurating civil
service reform, and docs not extend
much government pap to the Kemble
' addition, diviaion aud silbnce" faction,
was once an hireling of the party aud
apoke only for ?pay, which Mr. Schuri
now denies, according to a Washington
despatch of 6, which aara:
Secretary bchurx denies the statement
recently published that W. H. Kemble,
ofPennsylvania, paid him $1,500 for re
peating the same speech three times in
a eamfittign in that state. He declares
'he story is utterly false and ridiculous
.nd aavs that since 1856 he'has been ac
tive in thirteen campaigns, state and na
iona), from two weeks to four months
a* a time, an average of six to seven
weeks, and that in most of these cam
paigns he paid the bulk of his expenses
oat of his own pocket, sometimes when
he could ill afford it, and to the utter
neglect of his private affairs. That years
ago, at times when he was unable to do
so, he had, aa under the circumstances
everybody else did, accepted compensa
tion for traveling and other incidental
expenses or declined campaign work;
'hat the aggregate of this compensation
so received from every quarter fell far
-hort of the actual expense by him in
urred; that he thus gave to thoae cam
paigns not only his labor and time
Counting to little less than twenty
>ar months, bat a not inconaiderable
mount of money also.
John Sherman, Sec'y of the Treasury
thinks of making a speech upon the
financial question, and * Washington
telegram says as follows of the effects
it will have in Ohio, John's'own state:
Much apprehension is expressed here in
official circles over the proposed speech
of Secretary Sherman. A gentleman
who returned thia morning from Ohio
lyaif the secretary deliver* a speech in
support of resumption in 1879, the state
will go.daciocratic by not less than 50,-
000 majority. This is probably an ex
aggerated view of the feeling in the
state, but there is no doubt a very strong
sentiment against a fixed date of re
nmption.
Secretary Sherman, when he left here
xpreeecd his determination to make a
£eecb, and carried with him a large
.mount of material from the records of
the department to show that the finan
cial policy of which he is the exponent
has not injuriously affected the interests
}f business, and that it is the only sure
oad to permanent prosperity.
Ohio republicans are not much in
iore with Hayes, and a strong opposi
tion is being organized against his ad
ministration. A meeting of anti-ad min
istration republicans held in Columbus
on the night of the 10, which adopted
resolutions bitterly denouncing Mr.
Hayes for bis southern policy and de
ela. _ig that the second resolution in the
platform adopted by the republican state
convention at Cleveland is inconsistent
with its professed declaration of fidelity
<> the principles of the republican par
f; that it is a falsehood adopted solely
r party expediency, a libel upon the
republicans ofOhio and unworthy of the
/rand record of the party. The meeting
* o adopted a resolution invilingcorres
uidence from republicans throughout
10 state and advice as to the course to
e pursued during the present campaign.
in executive committee was appointed
o receive correspondence.
The Dayton Democrat, which may
: oseibly l>e prejudiced, announces that
the colored Republicans of Ohio are very
indignant at the course things are taking
under the Hayes administration, and
they are going to improve matters by
voting the Democratic ticket this fall.
Perhaps if the troeps were called out it
w iuld help things soma.
J!0 'V RRAME I .107 r;.
The imftny that attaches to the ►tool
ing of the presidency for Hayes, will
never 'lie. The Now \ ork Sun sava
that tho argument upon the Horldaoaae
before the late electoral commission .11
Washiugton, Judge Bradley wrote out
his opinion ami his decision in full, lie
completed it at about ft o'clock in the j
evening on the day before the judge*
went of the commission was to be an
nounced, and read it to Judge Clifford
and Judge Field, who were likewise
members of the com mission, it con- (
taincd first, an argument, and second
ly, a conclusion. The argument was
precisely the same as that which appears
in the published document; hut Judge
Bradley's conclusion was that the votes
of the Tilden electors in Florida, were
the only votes which ought to he count
ed as coming from that state.
"This was the character of the paper
when Judge Bradley finished it, and
when he communicated it to his collea
gue*. During the whele of that night
Judge Bradley's house in Washington
wis surrounded by the carriages of visi
tors who came to see him apparently
about the decision of the electoral com
aiiw-ion. which, as we have said, was to
bo announced the next day. lhse
visitors included leading republicans as
well persons deeply interested in
the Texas Pacific railroad scheme.
.'•When the commission assembled
tin- next mortflng. and when tlie judg--
an-nt was declare-!. Judge Brsdte- :;svc
his voice in favor of counting the vo.es
of the Usyes electors in Florida' The
argument he did not deliver at the lime
but when It catue to be printed subse
quently it was found to be precisely the
sauic as the argument which he had
originally drawn up, and on which he
had based his first conclusion in favor of (
the Tilden electors.''
In regard to the singular story printed
in the Sun the Enquirer says
The night upon which the Commis
sion rendered its deciafon in the Flori
da came, the Washington correspondent
of the Enquirer had interviews with
Judge Abbot and Senator Bayard, mem
bers of the Commission. Both express
ed surprise at Bradley'a vote, inasmuch
as bis argument, upon which it was pre
sumed he based it. was wholly in fa/or
of counting the votes of the Tilden elec
tors; and yet, despite such reasoning.be
voici, to the great surprise of the Demo
erstic members, for the Hayes elector.
Senator Bayard said at the time that he
did not believe tliat there was a single
member on the Commission, unless, in
deed, he had been apprised in advance
that when Bradley concluded the reed
ing of his argument but what expectt-h
he would record his vote for the count of
the Tilden electors.
Bradley's record is so bad, that it is
not at all improbable he was bought up
on that momeutous night, by Kepuhli
can politicians and railroad jobbeis,
who thronged his house from nine
o'clock until daylight.

The ladies of Progress Grange No. I'd,
P. of H. at the last regular meeting pre
sented to the Grange a large and elegant
Bible bound in heavy Morocco with the
accompaning add.use by one of the sis
ters whom they had selected to do the
honors. It waa altogether a surprise AS
they nad kept it a secret till the da* of
presentation.
Thie is a live and active Grange. Dur
ing the quarter from the 30th March to
:>oth June they took in nine new mem
bers ; this, too, in.a busy season when
farmers are actively engaged in farm
work. The business done during same
quarter amounted to $991,00 in purchases
and $509,06 in sales—making a total
amount of business hours-acted during
the quarter of 11498,08—this does not
include the isle of wool for vrhich the
returns were not received till after tlie
finance committee had audited the ac
counts, which amounted to several hun
dred dollars—to compare the business
of this quarter to the corresponding one
of last year it has nearly doubled.
ADDRESS.
H'orffty Matirr and Patron*: By the
laterality and devotion of the sisters of
Progress Grange, we have the honor to
present to the Grange this sacred Vol
ume which has been purchaaed by our
private funds through the Agent of the
Pa. State Grange, who had inscribed
upon its back in letters of Gold, "Pro
gress Grange, No. yd, P. of H." Accept
this tribute that we voluntarily lay upon
the Altar of our Order—as the Ancient
Jews laid the best of tbsir flocks and
herds upon their altars to show their
devotion to their church and their God
in whom they trusted —so do we in like
manner offer the best of oar books —the
Book of all Books—to show our devotion
to the Order of Patrons of Husbandry
and the God in whom we trust. Brothers,
take thia sacred volume as your Coun
celor and guide in your labors for our
Order, aud mar you be governed bv its
precepts and tqe God of love will bless
us with prosperity, fraternity and
peace.
The curious notions of law which rail
road officials sometimes entertain are
well exemplified in one of the lateet re
ported decisions of the Supreme Court
of Massachusetts. The Boston and Al
bany Railroad had undertaken to carry
a car load of oats, in bulk, over a certain
portion of its line, and in the bill of la
ding the weight of ttie oats waa stated to
be 20,000 pounds. When the car reach
ed Springfield, however, the railroad
company ascertained that it contained,
in fact, 23,667 pounds of oats. The com
pany thereupon took out the excess of
3,667 pounds and forwarded the remain
der to the plaintiffs at Northampton,
who then brought suit to recover dama
ges for the conversion of the oata thus
taken from the car. They were success
ful, and the judgment against the rail
road was sustained on review by the Su
preme Court. "Whatever remedy the
defendant bad for having carried the ex
cess over 20,000 pounds," aaid Judge
Endicott, "it waa not by appropriating
to ita own use the plaintiff's property.'
And the Court went even further, ana
declared that the taking was unjnstifia-,
ble, even if the plaintiff a knew the oats
were underbilled and did not mean to
pay freight for the excesa unless it was
demanded. A little more knowledge in
regard to legal remedies on the part of
the officers of business corporations
would prevent such occurrences as this
which are much more frequent than is
supposed.
H. H. Honore, the father-in-law ot
Fred Grant and Potter Palmer, will be
one of the big bankrupts of the year, his
debts exceeding 12,000,000 in amount,
(1,500,000 of the sum beingsecured. It is
not known how much the creditors will
receive, but in the state of the real estate
and mining etocK markets their divi
dends are not likely to be large.
President MacMahou is putting down I
the screws in France, on liberty of
speech and action, with a vengeance.
The purpose is evidently to drive the
S publicans into revolutionary demon
ations. A common otfence now,
which is seveaely punished, is to apeak
insultingly of the President. Kepubh
can newspapers are suppressed. and it is
a crime to sell photographs of Thiers in
Paris, while 80,000 equestrian portraits
ofMacMahon are being distributed
gratuitously in the province. The
Monarchists are making a desperate
iiattle, hut the extreme methods fney
1 adopt encourage the belief the people
will vote them out.

The I'ouca Indians, recently remove 1
from Dakota to au Indian Territory
reservation, have provided the civilised
inhabitants of the vicinity, who have
hitherto been accustomed only to the
mild savagery of tiie Weas, Piankeshowo
Miawvla, Peorias auk other Kansas In
dians, with a blood-curdling sensation
in the shape of their "Sun Dance." Th .-
is au anuual institution of the tribe and
is to the youug brave fully as anxious
not to say trying, a lime us little go is to
the undergraduate, and shuost as r
uuti'kuble for the display of pluck. The
dance began on Sun-lay in a space clear
ed for tho purpose, on which a large
"teepee," or double lodge, bad been
erected. In this, upon robes and skins,
•at the head chief of the tribe, around
whom congregated invited guests and
Indian musicians, whose occupation
seemed to be the thumping of rudely
made drums end tambounncs, blowing
whistles, ringing bells and making a
paudeniunium of shouts ar.J yells. In
froul of this lent and at the bass ofscme
thirty-five or forty poles planted for the
occasion stood us maur young Indians
whom a light breech cfout just rescued
from Adam'te simplicity. Each of these
was fastened to his stake by a rope tied
around the end of a stout wooden peg
which had been run through pieces of
the muscles of the back and sides, a puss
age for it having been prepared previ
ouslv with a knife. The dunce commen
ced ty fifteen or twenty of the Indiana
-lushing towards the sun aud throwing
their full weight upon the ropes by
which they hud been stitched, as it were
to the stakes. With tho breaking forth
of the music their efforts at self-torture
increased in vehemence until carried
away bv the applause of the onlooking
braves they -lanced up and down, froth
ing at the mouth, and not only appar
ently insensible to the physical, patn.
but even lifted above it to sensation akin
to frenzied jov. After their fortitude
had bfcen sufficiently proved iu the
dance the final test of physical endurance
was permitted. A broncho,or wild In
dian pony, was attached to oich suffer
er's breast by means similar to those al
ready described. He then resumed his
dancing, frightening the pony, which
with every jerk tore open the liole in his
breast, back or ahoulders until the flesh
stood out in open loope, from which the
blood continued to run. Finally, pulling
the frightened pony toward hnn by its
baiter, the Indian would strike the ani
mal iu the face, starting it off on the full
gallop. This invariably tore out tlie
fleshy loop, leaving the young warrior
finish his savage orgies, s man
among Indian men, no longer a boy, but
a full-fledged brave.

The Territory of Utah afforded Brick
Pomeroy the only chance for a judicial
separation from his wife, Louisa M., the
actrcm. She wanted to go on the stage
and he objected. They had been mar
ried four years and had lived happily
until this "disagreement arose. She re
sented the imputation that it was impos
sible to lie an actress and a wife, declar
ed that he was unreasonably jealous,
mistaken in his idea, and that she was
wedded to the life of an actress nnd
could never leave it. He asserted that
then she must leave him. She pleaded
with him to noeffect,and then accepted
the alternative. How to get a divorce
was the question. It was discovered
that probate courts in Utah tnay decree
w divorce between persons wishing to
become residents of the Territory if it
shall appear that they cannot live in
peace And union together. Mr. Pome
roy and hia wife mane the necessary affi
davit that they would like to reside in
Utah, and he then began a suit for di
vorce in the probate court of Brighsm
City, Utah, on the ground that they could
not live peaceably U>gether. The law
requiring a month'a advertisement in a
[ newspaper was complied with, nnd the
[ announcement was made in the semi
weekly journal of tbnt place, which has
| a circulation of 150coi.<es. By arrange
ment the suit went by Idefault, and a
divorce was granted. It will be noticed
ihat most any one could get a divorce
inder this law, hut it may he of interest

"If a byro and nineteen bullock* in

CATTLE SLAUGHTERING BY
DYNAMITE.
[From the l'all Mali (iaeelte, July 123.J
An interesting experiment ws* made
latt week atahorio slaughtering establish,
merit at Dudley, with tke view of testing a
new system of slaughtering cattle by
means of dynamite, and thus putting
them out of existence inorc speedily and
with less suffeVing than by tho ordinary
pole-axe. Two largo powerful horse* and
a donkey (disabled for work) were ranged
in a line about half a yard apart under a
shed, the donkey being placed in tho cen
tre. A small primer of dynamite, with
an electric fuse attached, was then placed
on each of their forehead* arid fastened in
position by a piece of string under thoiaw.
The wiies were then Coupled up in circuit
and atlached to the electric machine,
which stood nboyt five y*rd in front. The
handle ofthe machine being then turned
an electric current wn- di-charged, which
exploded three charges simultaneously,
and the animals instantly fell dead
Without a struggle. The whole affair war
over in two minutes, and tke exporirnenl
appears to have been a perfect success. By
this ineanr, it i; aUUd, any number, even
