Establish military posts in all of the
riotous districts until tbe people there
can govern themselves. It was a dose
that was given ta tbe South. Now
that we need it in tbe North, let us

There is a large element in Geor

The Eepublican State Convention
of Maine met last Thursday. Selden
Connor was nominated for Governor.
A resolution endorsing President
Hayes after the manner of the Ohio
Ilepublican Convention, was offered,
but it was rejected, and the conven
tion simply said nothing for or against
the policy of Mr. Hayes. Mr. Blaine
was chiefly instrumental in influ
encing the convention to adopt the
Fay nothing policy as the course of
President Hares.
m
Tim uniforms of State troops are
to be fashioned in appearance after
the uniforms of United States troops.
A few more general strikes, and then
an everlasting good-by to the doc
trine of State 1 ights in the Republic.
Within a generation Royalists have
not experienced so deep a thiill of J
delight as when the late riotous dem
onstrations took place in the United
States. They believe it to be evi
dence of a state of discontent and
corruption that knows no bounds
outside of oledience to military rule,
and military rule means strong gov
eruiufciit, and strong government
means Royalty. Tkey maintain that
a few more strikes or communistic
demonstrations, and military rule
will be an absolute necessity, and
thence the step to Royalty will be
short and e-isy. Once the moral
force of the Republic is dead killed
in the house of its friends Rovaltv
will be securely seated for a thousand J
years to eoiue. Ccrbitily no one who :
believes in man's capability of self
government desires directly or indi
rectly to assist in bringing about
such a state of society ; but riotous
disorders lead to military rule, and
military rule lead to "strong govern
ments," and strong governments lead
to Royalty.

Conflict of Civil and Military Au
thority in Scranton.
j Last week we gave an account of
I the attack upon the Mayor of Seran
j ton, and the manner of the disper
j sioii of the mob by the Mayor's posse,
which the reader doubtless remem-
Since then the Coroner of Scran
ton held an inquest on the bodies of
the mob that were killed by the
Mayor's posse, and the result or ver
dict of tho inquest is, " Wilfid mur
der," against the members of the
Mayor's osse.
Commitments were gotten out for
the arrest of the Mayor's posse, the
object of which was to put them in
jail. The military was informed of
the arrests, and at once a detachment
of soldiers was sent to take charge of
the men who had been charged with
1.,, ;'?,,! 1.,,." i, ,v;i ;t -
1 ' , bllb Villi
of Seranton. Their protection by
the military was deemed necessary,
as it was feared the mob would kill
the members of the posse once they
got hold of them.
The Mayor of Scranton says that
he is responsible for giving the order
to Lis posf e to fire in the mob :
" About 10 o'clock I was in mv
office holding court when informa
tion came that the mob were driving
the men away from the company's
shop and furnaces. Iu company with
Lieutenant Browne, of my police
force, I started toward the stores,
and in passing Washington avenue I
saw a larg&imd excited crowd around
the shops. Here also a young em
ployee met me with a request from
Mr. MeKinucy, saying that his daugh
ter, who was the telegraph operator
at the company's shop, was inside
the building and should be rescued.
I walked hastily down through the
crowd some 800 feet, and found the
door fastened- The young man then
said that it was all right. As I was
going through the crowd I ordered
them to disjerse, and when I found
the door fastened I attempted to re
turn. I had proceeded about fifteen
steps when a lot of half-grown boys
began to jostle me and one of them
struck me in the face. Immediately,
however, upon this several of the
working-men whom I knew as per
sonal acquaintances formed a cordon,
as it were, about me, but they, too,
were about becoming overpowered
by the pressure of the yelling mob
when Father Dunn came up. Imme
diately he threw the authority of the
priesthood about me and ordered the
men to stand back and do me no
harm. In this way we made about
a hundred feet toward the avenue,
the crowd yelling and hooting all the
time. The leaders of the mob, then,
seeing the determined spirit of the
priest, made a rush at him, caught
11m and took him bodily away from
ny side. I was then about three
hundred feet from the avenue, every
approach to which was jammed with
a mob of excited people. In the
meanwhile I had been pressed by the
crowd so much that I gave the signal
to one of my men to ring the alarm
bell, which was the sign to the armed
men under my orders to turn out.
Before reaching the avenue the cor
don of friendly woikiugmen which
had protected me thus far from bodily
karni became disintegrated, and I was
at the mercy of the mob. But at
this moment also I saw my posse,
armed with forty rifles, marching
down the street, headed by Lieuten
ant Browne, an old Confederate sol
dier. The crowd then surged up
j against me with even more violence,
andj was struck several times. When,
however, the posse was immediately
opposite me in the street, and within
twenty-five feet of me, I got the
worst blow of all on the back of my
head. Shots were then being fixed
at my men, anil one of thflni dropped
out of the ranks as though he was
shot Then I gave the order to fire
as well as I could. I am perfectly
willing to assume the responsibility
of giving the command to lira"
The men the Mayor's posse
charged with murder, have given bail
for their appearance to answer the
charge in court
Illoters Dispersed.
Intelligence from Polttville last Wed
uesdaycas: At Mahanoy t ity this
morning a number of men and boys
with drums entered tbe town, trying to
get up a meeting. Tbe object was to
inaugurate a strike at tbe mines iu that
vicinity. Being on the Philadelphia
and Reading Railroad Company's prop
erty they were tequesed to leave, and,
nut doing io, tbe sberiflYs posse prompt
ly ordered them to disperse, which
they quickly did, running 10 all direc
tion.
Richard Xortby and Michael Dooly,
tbe two principal leaders, were arrested
and put under bail. Tbe men bad ar
ranged to meet tbe miners as they
went to their work, and were deter
mined to prevent them from entering
tbe mines. Tbe sheriff 8 force, with a
number of citizeos.will remain on duty
for tbe present to protect tbe men who
are willing to work.

Several Pittsburg rioters bare been
before Judys Thomas Earing, President,
Jadjte of the District Court of Alle
gheny county. During tbe testimony
00 behalf of the accused it came out
that tbe strikers bad received legal ad
vice on the subject before tbe strike oc
curred. Iu coiuujeutiug on this fact
bis IJcoor remarked that tbe lawyer
bo advised tbe iten tbey were not
rioters, was a foul or a knave; To
constitute a riot, 01 prove a party guil
ty of nut, he said, it is not ueeessary,
not esseutial that a woid be spoken.
It three or oiori person's assemble
together to preveut by lorce tbe per
formance of a lawful act, or to compel
the doing uf an uulawful act, it is riot.
If a crowd gathers in froct of a man's
bouse aud threatens to brat him if be
emerges) and ieui-io there, though not a
hand is uplifted, it is riot. Tbest; men
had been told if tbey wore not beating
the employes of creating a tumult it
wa-t not riot. It if not necessary to
show active participation iu the out
break. Every man who will not as
(ist to quell a riot ought to go to bis
borne at once. His presence lends
moral vopport to it, and be is gui:ty in
law and morals.
lie referred to the act of Assembly
passed on the 2 lid of last March, and
explained that under this act to find a
man enilty it is not necessary that be
be actually present during the time of
not. If, for instance, the accused at
any meeting of the employes of a road
gave advice, innocent though it might
appear, which tended to encourag tbe
men to prevent the running of traipf,
he would be just as guilty in the eyes
of the law as the men who followed the
advice. If a man ten miles away from
tLr scene of the riot advises men to go
aud inaugurate it, he is liable to be in
dicted convicted and punished, and
holding ibis interpretation of the law,
be bound over the accused for a fur
ther hearing. The Pittsburg lawyer
who counselled the atrikcrs may not be
smart enough to keep himself out of the
clutches of the law, provided his name
can be ascertained. He ought to be
bown up, so that Pittsburgers may
know to whom in part they are indebt
ed for the disgrace which has fallen
upon their city. VorA . Jmerican.

Trying to Rope in a Lancaster County
.Man Who Proved too Sharp.
The Lancaster Examiner and Exprest
tells the following terrible story of
crime in tbe Capital City : Last Thurs
day night one of the leading drovers of
Lititi who has been on the road for at
least twenty years, stopped at Harris
burg, and registered at the City Hotel,
opposite the depot. Feeling like
straightening out after bis long ride
I ruin Pittsturg be lit a cigar aud walk
ed over toward tbe depot. He was
there accosted by a youug man, wbo
complained about having to wa't for a
train for Baltimore, and said that be
had cou.e from Columbus, Oliio, He
got into au animated conversation with
our drover friend Mr. A., aud invited
biuito drink a glans of beer with him
which A. assented to, and told biiu the
City Hotel was open. The young man
from 1 olumbus then slid he bad just
taken a beer there and it was "no good,''
and dropped into a saloon, the second
one frouting tbe depot below Eby's
corner.
Seeiug the drift ol tilings aud beii:g
fond of adventure, A. let him bave all
tbe striug be wanted, though be had al
ready recognized biiu as a llarrisburger.
The party iu tbe saloon took ale and
sat down at tbe table. The Columbus
man now talked cotton, Yankee, kc,
aud bailed from Georgia, going to see
bis sister in Cumberland county ; said
be bad lost $50 by a sharp game Yankee
played on bim, aud professed great ad.
miration for Yankee cuteuess. He tbeu
tumbled around 111 his pocket and said
that be picked three of the cards the
Yaukee did tbe trick with, and he would
show biiu all about it. He pulled out
tbe caids and a napkin for a lay out, al
so a large roll of notes, and began his
explanation in a practical manm r. He
wanted to bet A. $10 that be could
tell him a certain card. No. 2, tbe
"stool," now stepped in and said Geor
gia was a greeny aud that A. and be
could easily fleece biiu, and offered to
divide tbe $10 bet with bim against
tbe Georgia man. A. baviug '-piped
them off," thought the time for the
denouemeut bad come, and, after a-k-ing
them what tbey took bim for, gave
them bis opinion about three card
mnnte, and intimidated that laws of
California, which made it a penetentiary
offense to play tbe game, ought to be
on our statute books. These parties
are known as regular babitues in the
vicinity of the llarrisburg depot.
These same gentlemen paid Lancaster a
visit 011 a public occasion not so long
ago, but our police promptly stopped
their little game. Tbe gang is no cred
it to llarrisburg or its police authori
ties. Tug following account of an attempt
ed robbery aud sad accident occurred
at s small village styled Drytowu,
northeast of Marietta, Lancaster coun
ty. Rev. Cbristain Nissley, an old
Meiiuouite preacher, lives uear the vil
lage referred to "Sometime lait win
ter," says the Examiner and Express,
"a party of tramps attacked bis bouse,
and since then the family bave been
particularly careful about tramps.
Ou Tuesday nigbt shortly after nine
o'clock three tramps came to bis resi
deuce and demanded money. Tbe
family became very much alarmed aud
blew a horn aud rang bells to call - tbe
neighbors to assist them. Mr. Niss
ley's son Joseph took a loaded gun,
aud after some persuasion tbe women
in the house allowed biiu to go outside.
He weut around tho barn and shortly
beard a shot fired and be then secreted
himself in a ditch, waiting for the men
to get closer. When tbey got near
bim, be fired, thinking they were tbe
thieves, but instead of that, tbey were
neighbors of Nissley, who where com
ing to their assistance.
The firing that youug Mr. Nissley
beard was tbe party wbo was coming to
tbe rescue, trying tbeir pistols to see
that tbey were in good order. His
shot resulted fatally, tbe discbarge en

A Ybiirty Woman Shoots Her Traducer.'
A horrible tragedy was enacted in'
Jeokult couuty, Iowa a few days ago,"
in which Miss. Caroline White,' about
sevetiucn years old, shot a'ud killed
Mr. M. Holland a man baring a wife
and several cl'ildrau. The cause of
the shooting is eaid to be that Holland
bad made statements among young men
that Miss White Ca not a virtu jus
girl, and that be bad intercourse.
Her family hid attempted to get Hol
land to deny tbesd statements in wrtt

up, slightly injuring three meu ; four
rigs were burued down ; a child
about six years old fell in a pool of wa
ter and was drowned ; on Mouday evoo
ing tbe large depot building that was
nearly completed was destroyed, togeth
er with $500 worth of carpenters tools.
The work of a thunder storm at
Gurtiner N. Y., on the 7th is thus de
scribed: A barn was struck by light
ning aud burued, together with its con
tents. The owner DuB'dse Etting,
was instantly killed, and two nien'.wnh
bim stuuned. At Kerbankson the
baro of James O Scbooumaker was
struck and burned, Scbooumaker nar
rowly escaping. At the same place the
barn of Levi Van Leven was struck and
consumed.
Not Long since burglars visited the
premises of John Royer, in East Cov
entry towuship, Chester county. They
were preparing to enter the bouse,
when their footfalls out side awakened
Mrs. Royer, and listened inteutly, she
heard persons talking in low tones.
She endeavored to arouse ber husband,
but be was so sound asleep that the
attempt was bet successful. Being a
plucky woman, she determined to
make a raid upon the burglars herself.
So she got np, procured one of ber bus
bald's pistols, and went to the bed
room window, which was open. On
the porch roof outside, she discovered
a man slowly crawling up over the edge,
and sbe promptly fired at him: It is
needless to say that be immediately
vanished, and neither he nor bis com
rades were seen again in that vicinity.
Such wennen as that give an unpleas
ant reception to nocturnal prowlers.
Tbe large barn on the property of
Mr. John McKenna. at Parkesburg,
was totally destroyed by fire on Wed
nesday morning, together with the en
tire crops of tbe season and some agri
cultural implements.
