CosGRDaMAN Bvxt u, of Indiana says
that the Democrats will kindly allow the
Republicans to organize the House, but
they will prevent any "radical legisla
tion." It is very kind of Mr. Bynum
and his associates to allow the majority
to elect the Speaker, and possibly they
may be persuaded, before the session is
over, to allow the majority also to para
some laws that arc not altogether pleas
ing to the Democracy. ,
Tm details received of the disastrous
floods, in Japan, in August last, show the
calamity to have Iieen one of the most
terrible in modern history. The loss of
life, it is estimated, will not fall short of
15,000 persons, w hile the destruction of
property will amount to many millions
of dollars.. Our own great calamity in
the Conemaugh Valley will help us to
form an idea of the desolation and suffer
ing that must have followed such a visi
tation. Jt is quite probable that the October
elections in the new States will add four
to the Republicans in the House at
Washington ; two from South Dakota,
one from North Dakota and one from
Washington, and that Montana will add
one to the Democrats. The House would
then stand ICS Reiublicar,s and 1G2
Ilemocrats, and requiring MW to make a
quorum. It should be remembered that
no party is in power in the House for
partisan work without a full quorum of
members present to respond to their
names. While the Republican majority is
likely to be (J at the meeting of Congress
in Dete liber, it must have JiiG votes al
ways ready to assure any exercise of par
ty power, such as the election of Speaker
or the settlement of contested seats.
Dewocbatic journals are in great men
tal distress because, as they assert, trade
is depressed, labor idle and manufactur
ing industries paralyzed, by means of
there being seventy millions of surplus re
maining locked up in the National Treas
ury. Suppose their assertions to be true
w hich they are not is not the locked-up
surplus a legacy inherited from the late
Democratic administration, and has not
the Republican party, at every opportu
nity, done its very best to reduce this
aurplus by wiping out, in whole or in
part, the internal revenue taxes, which
take from the pockets of the people,
without any requital, one hundred and
twenty-five millions per year? Again,
and again, the advocates of Protection to
our home industries, have labored in
Cmgress to have their tax repealed or
reduced, and at every trial have been de
feated by the Free Traders. It is there
fore as absurd as it is unjust for Demo
cratic journals to curse the present admin
istration on account of the surplus in the
Treasury, which was allowed to accumu
late during a Democratic administration,
and the reduction of which has been
jirevented by a Democratic majority in
Congress.
Tin United Slates Circuit Gjurt has
decided that Deputy Marsha! Nagle did
just what he ought to have done in
siiootin; David 8. Terry. Judge Sawyer,
who delivered the opinion, puU the con
clusion thus: "After mature considera
tion we have reached the conclusion that
the homicide in question was committed
ly the petitioner while acting in the dis
charge of the duty imposed npon him bv
the Constitution and laws of the United
Ktatea."
The opiuion is long and exhaustive.
Every point in the case U covered. First
the Jo Ige takes np the subject of the ju
ri lictioo of bis Conrt over the proceed
ings, and show conclusively that its ju
risdiction is perfect. The Constitution of
the United Slates proridra f,r the Su
preme Court, and iaipone upon the Pres
ident the duty of secin that the laws are
faithfully executed. It was in the exer
cise of this power that the President,
through the Attorney Ciemjral, appointed
Ragle to protect Judge I i -Id.
As to the second point involved,
namely, w hether the killing was neces
ary that is to say, whether it was rea
onablv apparent to Nagle's mind that at
tii.' time and under the conditions th?n
existing be roust kill Terry in r.let $' a
full and complete discharge of the duly
that had been imposed npon himthe
Court is no less positiv.!. In fact Judge
Sawyer goes even further when he says:
" In his own judgment be acted, under
the trying conditions Mirrounding him,
in guod faith and with consummate cour
age, judgment and discretion. The hom
icide was, in our opinion, clearly justifia
ble in law, and in thte forum of sound,
practical sense was commendable."
A SPEEDY ANSWER.
Fiumibe l'.aiei'ouiity American-
Hou. William A. Wall, the chief oial-r
of th recent Democratic btate Convention,
and the prospective canA date of the faithful
for Governor, declared as a preface to hia
k ,v..t ' nmatr&ted business interest

The answer to this dcmagopieic declara
tion is found in the aiinounctrneiit by all
railroads that they cannot supply the cart
for the movement of fre.glitis, and that the
transportation business, which is an index
to almost every variety ol trade, was never
before a great. This is true, although the
mileaft'e of the railroad and their facilities for
transportation have greatly increased. If
other answer is swseded to substantiate the
claim to increased prosperity under a Re
publican National administration, it is
found in the current iu-ruea given be

The Foreign Market About Worth
less to our Farmers.
"No amount of advertising, no proffers of
reciprocal trade, no change of fiscal policy
can force on Europe another peck of wheat
per capita, scarcely another quart, for many
years to come, unless unexiected disaster
shall befdl her crops.
These are words of precious truth aud
should settle the Tariff question with every
farmer in the United Slates. The National
(range at its annual meeting last year in
TnK Ua adopted a resolution requesting the
Commissioner of Agriculture to astertain '"if
trade relations with European countries
could be established for the disposal of
American surplus agricultural products."
The very explicit paragraph above quoted is
a part of the report of the commissioner,
made in compliance with the grange's re
quest. The truthfulness of the entire report
will not be questioned when we state that
its (acts were collected and its deduction
drawn by Mr. J. R. Dode, the well-known
statistician of the Department of Agriculture.
Euroi is the only foreign buyer of our
surplus wheat. Its population is .'1jG,IW,0h.
lis average annual production of wheat and
fljur is t,atO.'XO bushels. It annually pur
chases from other countries about 144 ,000,
110 'bushels. It annually consumes four
bushels per head of grain and flt.ur. Of this
nearly half a bushel per head is imimrted.
All the Free-Trade lunatics in the United
Slates can't devise a way to make Europe
buy five bushels of wheat anil flour per
head of its population instead of four.
That settles the value of the foreign mark
et, so far as wheat is concerned. The grain
cannot be f.irc.d on Europe. But the Ameri
can market can be expanded indefinitely by
increasing in the United States the number
of the consumers of fjod. this by increasing
the manufacturing population, this by in
creasing the number and variety ot manu
factures, and by the increase of immigration
to meet the increased demand for mechani
cal and other labor. lrtM.
IO.OOO Japanese Drowned.
Sas Fatsnsco, Sept. l!t. Japanese papers
received by the steamship Gaelic place the
total number of persons drowned in the

diately the villasre and about forty-eight
other hamlets were covered by the raging

the inhabitants. A number of the villagers

Editob Hcbld: From reading the arti
cles in your paper, composed by the base
ball editor, we have come to the conclusion
that they need some corrections. In your
issue of August 2th you publish quite a
lengthy article parading the greatness of the
' Maroons," which is quite natural, they be
ing your home club, and also good ball
players ; but you shduld not allow your ad
miration to run to such a length as to be un
able to do justice to other clubs in the
county. In your article of the 2Sth of Sep
tember you make use of language iu sub
stance as follows: "After defeating the
Meyersdale club and the Jennertown " Far
mers" they (the" Maroons ") had - to reach
beyond the confines of their own county,
and pound two victories out of the " Con
nellaville Greys."
You should remember that only once in
the history of the Jennertou n club have we
been defeated by a club from Somerset, that
being on July 4ih, li-il). The next game of
the series of three was won by us, on Au
gust 10th. The third game never was play
ed, not because we did not want to, for we
wrote no leas than six times to arrange a
dale upon which to play, but it seemed every
day we selected, the Maroons, " lor some
reason, would be unable to play, so we seut
word to them to fix a day.
Ou Wednesday, the 4th inst., we received
a letter from the " Maroons," stating that
they would be down upon us on Friday, the
6th. This gave us only one day to piepare
the ground, and send word to some of our
players, who were away from home, and as
the time was entirely too short, we seut
them word not to come. Then, on Friday
evening, we received word from there that
they would be down the next day, Satur
day. On that day we could not play, owing to
a previous engsgement to furnish music for
a harvest home picuic, but we could not
reach tbrru by mail in time to prevent their
coming, the time being too sho.t. The " Ma
roons" accordingly came on Saturday,
went out upon our ball grounds, and had
some one to call the game in their favor by
a score of 9 to 0. Now they claim to be the
champions, which we refute, as we are now.
and have been for the st four years, the
champions of the county, and stand ready
to defend our title at any time or place in

I must answer There are hardly two cases
alike, or requiring the same treatment, yet
WJ out of lOu can be cured or benefited. To
treat you Willi, .ui an examination is Rtiess
inn. You can't afford to guess on your sight
or btaring. Symplons that seem to you
harm leas, tnsv be most dangerous. Delay
bl.niis more than disease. It will cost yon
but (I to $5 for a complete examination,
then I cm tell you what can and what can
not Is- done, the cost and all about it ; you
then know what you ought to do. If treat
ment is taken, the examination fee is credit
