rOLITIOAI. NOTES.
J. A. Rankin, master workman of Dis
trict Ne. 11, Knights e( Laber, comprising
tbe Connellavllle and Latrobe oekereglons,
tells why be Is a supporter et Cleveland.
11 1 waa a Republican until the Hayea cam
paign In 1876. 1 then became a Green
backer, and slnee then have really bad no
polltles, bnt I meat assuredly Intend te
support Cleveland. Prier te 1872 1 was a
radical protectionist, believing fully that
tbe panics et 1817, 1827 and 1837 were caused
directly by a reduction et a tar I If en Im
poi ted goods. I bave learned differently,
however, and I am new radically la favoref a
reduction nl all duties. Tnaprinolpleef pro
tection la wrong. It la neither right nor Jus:
that one eeoilen or all el a oeuuiry should
be taxed In order le fester tbe Interests el
another suction. We need protection no
longer. When our government waa young
our industries were weak and needed pro
tection. But nnder the existing prosper
ous condition of trade the taxei of the war
period or previous have no appll
catien. Tbe werklngmen are beginning te
waken up te the fact, or rather the qaeitlen,
1 Dees protection protect T' They are be
ginning te ebterve tbat high tariff duties
bave protected the capitalist, but labor, tbe
workingman'aenly oernmodlty, has been
freer. If tbe Democratic! party has the
oenrsReof lis oenvloilons, and wnnld indi
cate te tbe wnrktegmen tnelr position, they
could carry Pennsylvania like a whirlwind
tbls lall."
Dr. Watlell, a prominent eltlaen et Bao Bae Bao
ramente, Gal , new In tbe Kait, says : "I
am a Republican and will vote for Uarri Uarri
sen ; but If 1 am expected te apeak can
dldly of tbe situation In California, I may
say that the outlook for a Itepubllesn via
tery this fall In California is dceldedly
glenruy. The people there want tar I II re
form and will vete for the party that guar
antees te give tbe needed relief front op
pressive taxation, it would net surprise
me If tbe Democrats carrled the state by a
handsome majority."
At the meming or the exocutlve commit
tee of State Prohibition committee, held In
Harrlsburg, en Thursday, Captain M. 8
Msiqal, el Newcastle, was placed en the
state ticket for aud Iter general. A. A. S to te

Ex-Congresman Samuel F, Cary, of
Oble, who bas roturned te New Yetk city
from a tour through Conneetlout, aaya :
"This free trade cry has net seared the
werklngmen a bit. In all tbe manuftotur manuftetur

bulk nl the campaign clubs The Btale will
give Cleveland 0,000 majority."
General Frank Fisk, one nl Colerado's
prominent cltlzins and president of tbe
Stock Growers' National bank et Pueblrv
baa been Interviewed by a reperter : " 1
am and always bave been an Inde
pendent but bave voted the Republican
ncket with few exceptions up le tbe Blaine
Cleveland campaign. On tbat occasion I
did net vote at ull, for the reason that I dis
trusted Blaine, and Cleveland was te me
an uuknewn quauttty. But this eleotlen I
will vote for Cleveland, and from what I
hear from my many friends they will de
likewise. Cleveland has proved himself a
geed, safti and conservative president, and
Htands with all parties tbroughent the

When we went te press Thursday alter alter alter
neon, Rr. David Anderaon was about con
cluding bis argument against a viola Ien of
tbe Sunday law, especlslly the selling te
miners and te persona visibly Intoxicated,
Rev. Charles Jleads followed In a sbert
address, In wblcb he outlined tbe objects of
tbe society, and called upon all present te
enroll themselves as members of the so
ciety. Lewis D. Vail, of Philadelphia, being
Introduced, addressed the convention at
length. He stated tbat two years age the
saloons in Philadelphia were open en Sun
day, tbe aame as en any ether day In tbe
week. Citizens and ministers would call
upon tbe mayor and remonstrate against
tbls open violation or the law. Tbe mayor
would issue a proclamation ; the saloons
would clese their front shutters ler a few
weeks, and then everything would be as
bad as ever,
In 1SS2 a few earnest men met In the
northwestern part of tbe elty and organized
a Law and Order society. Philadelphia bad
liquor laws unlike these In any ether state,
and the work of prosecuting efienderu te
convletlon was a meat dlfilcult one. The
first case the society prosecuted was a con cen cen
cert room en Ridge avenue, and alter a
world et opposition they bad Its lleense
taken from It. Then they attacked the
large and better class et saloons, but tbe
grand Juries Ignored tbe bills, aud In one
case put tbe costs en tbe prosecutor, who
was ene el tbe society's deteetlves. Judge
Fullerten set aside se mueh of tbe finding
as put tbe costs en the prosecutor. Alter
that true bills were found by tbe grand
Jury, but all manner of excuses were made
te prevent the cases from coming te trial
sickness, death, marriages, and even births
la the family were eileied as reasons for
oatpenlng trials.
Mr. Vail said tbe society made It a point
never te prosecute a caae unless they had
positive evidence for conviction, apart from
tbe evldenee of their deteetlves. While be
claimed that It was perfectly rlgbt le em
ploy detectives te ferret out tbe violators of
tbe law their evldenee was nerer used
against ollenders unless It was corroborated
by ethers. He claimed tbat "running tbe
growler" bad been completely broken up
In Pnllade'pbla. He admitted tbat men
and women had a perfect rlgbt te buy beer
by tbe pltoher full from tbe saloons, but the
courts bad a discretionary power te refuse
Ueense te all saloen-koepora who worked
tbe growler, and tbe recent action of tbe
court In reducing the number et licenses in
Philadelphia, mero than one-half showed
that taey bad Judiciously exerelaed this
dlscrotlenary power.
In ana wer te a question Mr. Vail said It
was the intention of the society te enforce
the Sunday law of 1701, lu answer te
another question as te what the society
would de about the railroads carrying lum
ber and coal en Sunday, be Bald tbat was a
matter tbe society bad net yet tackled. The
society bas Its bsnds lull with the work in
which It Is engaged, and it would be un
wise te attempt tee much. In answer le
another question he said the society bad
paid no attention te the " social vlee," there
being anolher society In Phl.adelphla that
gave especial attention te tbat matter.
THURSDAY EVENIKQ.
The Law and Order society convention
roasaembled at 8 o'clock Thursday evenlng.
The attendance was net much larger than
In the afternoon.
Toe glee club of the Geed Templars sang
two or three hymne, with MUs Maria C.
ICnndlg presiding at tbe ergau.
Rev. Cnarlea Reads was oalled upon te
preside ever the deliberations of tbe con
vention. II e made a sbert address out
lining the principal objects of the Law and
Order society, explained the duties et Its
members und urged them te encourage the
pubile officials in the enforcement or the
Sunday and liquor laws,
Lutber 8. Kautfman, eiq., was the next
speaker. He regretted te see se many
empty benches; empty benches bave no
souls ; men and women have ; he can't talk
te empty benches, but he can te men and
women, and sometimes be thinks be may
Intluence them for geed. Tbe trouble Is
the people have net a proper understanding
of the subject ; tbey de net appreciate the
high privilege they enjoy la being able te
upheld tbe law. Tbla la a government of
law, net of men. In ether countries there
are one-man governments, or governments
of the favored few, but In our country tbe
people make tbe laws, and It is tbelr duty
te see that they are enforced. The speaker
upbraided these geed cltlzsns who did net
make It a point te upheld tbe ollleors of tbe
law In enforcing it against all law-breakers.
Mr. Kaullman said the republic could never
be destroyed by any foreign power; that
fact had been established by tbe revolution
ary war. Ner can It ever be destroyed by
civil b trite ; tbat bas been established by tbe
result of the gri a'est civil war tbat waa ever
waged. But it may be destroyed by cor
ruption which will sep tbe foundations of
government unless tbe lawa are upheld
and enforced ; and It Is for the friends or
law and order te de tbls work.
Lewis D. Vail was next Introduced. He
said tbat In passing through Centre Square
be saw tbe beautiful monument erected te
tbe memory et tboce who bad died te save
tbe Union. They went down le their
death in defense et law and order. They
badnoenmlty against tbe Seuth and net
ene lu ten et them even cated anything
about slavery ; but the Seuth had defied
the law, and the Union soldier died te
upheld U. Mr. Vail called bla bearers
te upheld tbe Sunday law, includ.
lng the law of 1701, wbleb tbe
supreme court bad declared te be con
stitutions!. Mr. Vail next berated tbe per per
senal Uberty party, stating tbat there la no
such a tblug as personal liberty, eacn in
dividual bavlngte give up a share el his
natural rights ler the geed of society. Mr,
Vail next gae a history of all tbe license
lawa that had ever been enacted In Penn
sylvania, and showed tbat "free whisky"
was never recognized In tbencmmenwealth
He then showed tbe operation et tbe license
lawa in Philadelphia, atd nil tbe geed
mayors tbat Philadelphia litd ever bad
could de nothing te suppress tbe Sundsy
train J until the Liw and Order se
ciety came te tbelr assistance. Until
a year or two age every saloon waa epsn In
Pnlladelpbla; new there la net one that
sells liquor openly. Mr. Vail pltebsd Inte

Te the people of England I My Eagllsh

blm en the witness atand te testify. His
evldonce wss a tissue from one end te the

said that he would lie as far as he
considered nrcassary and the prosecutor
said In open court that he had been paid fAO
for said service. Tela Is ene specimen of
tbe boasted American Justice. Tbls Is
only one of the means used by the prose

Mr. Martin explains tbat the writ called
for the execution of Maxwell between the
hours elO snd 11 o'clock. Judge J. G. P.
Garesche applied yesterday te Slierlll Har
rington te allow tbe prisoner all the tlme
allotted te the deemed man, excepting such
time as would be iieceaHary te en.ure tbe
execution In the tlme prescribed. Tne at
torney expected dltpitcbM from Washing

lerest of humsnlty tbey deslred te bave the
time extended. The aberifl granted an
oxtsnalen et two hours and a half,

at the Jail deer that at the request of the
attorneys the oxecutlon had been postponed
two hours. Helders of tickets were ro re
queated te return between 8:30 and 8:15.
At 0:30 a. m. Maxwell Is busily ongaged
writing at hla llttie Inble.
At 8 o'clock the visitors wbe had left the
Ja'l yard when Sheriir Harrington an an an
nounced the pottpenement nf the execu
tion, began te watch theerlt 47, which een.
ttlned Maxwell, Lacdgrair aud Father
Tehan. Nothing oeuld be seen at tbe
deer which was still cevered with inanllla
paper. Tnoxe In front endeavored te learn
the aubstance el conversation.
The) behlnd pnsbed forward, net know
ing why, but long alter tbe pilt had re
tired the aimless crowd still shulll )J about
in deer.
Frem 8 o'clock till tbe arrival el tbe sheriff"
thocendomned men sreut the tlme with
Father Teban. Teey werelnlenupted but
once when Msxwell was banded a dispatch
which bed Just toen recelved by La3er
Msrtln frtui Fauntleroy, his assoclate at
Jtllersen City. It read as fellows : "Tba
governor has received another telegram
from Minister West, but persists iu me
Kame position. Held as long as possible as
we may go, her In time. My heartfelt sym
pathy te ihe accused and bis leved ones.
Wire his lather."
Maxwell smiled sadly when he read tbe
dlapa'uh Hnd handed It te tbe priest without
a word. Sberlll Harrington with bis guard
otfeur deputies and a score el police rlli
cera appeared at the cell deer at 8:10. Beth
men listened calmly te the reading et tbe
death warrsnls aud neither llinebed a
mutcle when tbey were pluientd by
Deputy SherltT Fertln.
As the proceialen eumged from tbe jail
Inte the graa.y yard, Maxwell gave one
rapid glanee at the sea el heads upon tbe
blgh building In tbe vicinity. Then bis
gaze fell te tbe ground aud he moved bis
head forward toward Father Teban, who, a
atep in adranc, was reciting the ettlcts for
the dead. Botn men were oeol and col
lected, Maxwell especially se. He bere
himself with tbe carriage of a soldier, and
while crossing the yard made a quick c.leU
step In order te beta unUea wltUlbe match
et the guard.

KNDS.
It leek a moment te ascend the step te
tbe scslTeld. The two men were quickly
plaeed beneath the ropes. Maxwell gave
una last firm leek at these bsfnre blm,
murmured a geed bye te his father confessor,
the blaek caps were drawn, the nrokaef
both onelroled with the noest, and befeie
ene half of the weuld-be spectators bad
been able te sheve themselves through tbe
narrow doorway into the yard, the trap had
been sprung and the bodies wero dangling
In mid -air.
Only about two rulnutes elapsed between
their mounting of the seaiTild and the
sprlnglng.et thutrap. LandgrafT drepprd
llke a leg and Ms body SMtng pirtcetlj
motionless, but Maxwell dled hard. HI.
lower limbs writhed convulsively and bl
arms, whleh had been tied across his chest,
moved up and down from the elbow Joints
as though he was seeklnir te loosen tin
fetters snd grasp tbe rope atme blm. la
fnw soennds, however, ht) convulsion
oeasedenlytn be followed by a stream of
b'.oed whleh flowed from beneath the black
cap. It ottne trout til neck, whtah had
been deeply ent by the rope. In tlilrteen
minutes Lsndgrair was dnalured dead, but
It was four tntuutes later whim tbephjsl tbephjsl
elan releimJhla held en Maxwell's wrist
with the remark : He's gene."
Kvcu In death Maxwell has surprised
observers, Modleal-men had nil along pre
dicted that his vitality would be found te
be leas than Lindgrafl's, and that he would
die aoener. As seen as the llfe waa de
clared extlnet the bodies were cut down.
Dr. Lulz condueted a pett mortem exami
nation. It dt veleped the Met that tbe neckf
et both men were broken. Maxwell had
sustained a frauture or third vertebiw,
while tbn "byrld" bone of his nook wa
brolcen. Limlgrau" was killed bynoom byneom bynoem
pleto fracture aud dislocation et tbe third
vertebiw.
Preparations are new being tnade for the
embalming et Maxwell's body, and it will
probably go Kast by tn-iilglit'a train.
ntSTORY OF MA.XWKU.'J ORIMC.
Tciu erlmii for which Mixwell
finally BUltored death was ene of peculiar
ntroelty. Maxwell met hi victim,
