The reading and thinking voter will not need to be cautioned regarding the short time until election, nor will it's impor tance escape him. The summer's record of hard times, unemployed men, business failures, suspended industries, etc., can not have resulted other than in teaching the intelligent citizen that something is wrong. To anyone not blinded by partisan feel ing it is plain that while depreciating sil ver, too extensive credits, over stocking, and speculation may hare had much to do with the present troubles, one of the most potent causes has been the feeling of un certainty regarding tariff legislation. The Democratic party declares a protective tariff to be unconstitutional and is pledged to utterly destroy the policy which has built np so many of our gTeat industrial centres, and has materially aided in the marvelous growth of our country. It is withia the power of the voter, by an overwhelming vote against the Demo cratic party, to restore confidence. In the face af the strong rebuke of the voters of the country, the Democratic party would not be so daring in tariff tinkering, and manu facturers would see thst the people indorse the protective policy. The fear is not that Butler county voters ■will not do their duty by voting againßt this policy and these hard times, but that by complimentary votes they will make the lesson less satisfactory.. Vote the straight ticket. From first to it is composed of honerable, able and worthy men, and a vote taken from any one of them aud given, complimentary or otherwise, to an opponent, is a distinct loss, and a blow to the party. Toor neighbor may be a candidate on an opposing party's ticket, and may be a good neighbor and a good citizen, but let him, ifhewanUyoor vote, come within your party's lines. Let it be straight old Republican ticket with one X. Thb visit of the Russians to Paris i* now called "the greatest drunk on record." Whole relays of official Frenchmen have been used up and pat to bed, bat the tall, ruddy,smiling Muscovites still walk steadi ly and consume everything set before them. They pursue their Herculean program with unflagging zest, kissing all the women,em bracing the nearest men, shouting "Vive la France!" and sweetly finding room in their overladen arms from dawn until mid night. The fact that the French them selves did not appreciate its possibilities shows how overwrought and hysterically tired they already were. They actually decided to give their ex-President no pub lic fnneral at all for fear the Russians might unpleasantly rt,.Tiember that,among other fine things, MacMahon was the hero of the Malakoff tower. One Meal a Day. The Boston Herald, a free trade paper, is authority for the statement that the aldermen of Lowell, Mass., paid a visit to the idle districts of that city last Friday and found that the families of the un employed were -'hopelessly in debt and suffering terribly fiom want." The office of the superintendent ol streets is daily thronged with applicants for work begging to be employed at any living wages. Nor is ttis all. The same aldermen paid a visit to many of the workingmen's homes. Tnere they had ocular evidence that the reports bad not been exaggerated. Idle men sat in the boose* with despair stamped on their faces, their wives were still more despondent, and some of the children were crying for food. In many of the houses they were living on one meal a day—and that a poor one! And while these people had one poor meal a day between them and starvation, with the prospect of losing even that, the men whose business it is to legislate for the country's good were fighting at Wash ington against the passage of a bill which would have acted immediately to their benefit, and one of the Senators was mak ing a fifteen-hour speech in order to ob struct that measure. ' At the same time the Democratic Chair man of the Ways and Means Committee an nounced that the bill which he is preparing for a reduction of the tariff, and inevitably for a reduction of American wages, woald be ready within a few weeks and would be roported at the earliest opportunity. The J acts speak for themselves.—Philadelphia Inquirer. OCT in Osceloa, Nebraska, W. C. T. U. standi for White Cap Tar-and-feathers Un ion. A committee of twelve of the W. C. T. C., selected for their strength of arm and tenderness of conscience for the sins of other/*, on Saturday last, wrote notes to half a dozen young girls, forging the signa tares of men whom the girls knew, re questing a meeting in the park that eveu ing. When the girls so attempted went to the park, these twelve were waiting for them, with tar and feathers, and rods, and they seized the girls and bound and beat them, and were tearing off their clothing to tar and feather their naked bodies, when the screams of one who broke away com pelled them to desist. A BIG battle lit reported from Southern Brazil, between the in«urgeuu aud th«* government troops, with 1000 killoti; anil another in Northern Africa where the Spanish and Hoori are fighting. A Railroad Horror, One of the most horrible railroad acci '. Nt« that bat ever happened in this coun try vas that at Battle Creek, Michigan on the Chicago and Grand Trunk R. R., early last Friday morning. The conductor and engineer of a train going East disobeyed orders as to remaining on a switch or double track until an excursion train pas sed them, went ahead on the single track and collided with a train filled with excur sionists for the World's Fair. The cars of the excursion train telescoped, the people were pinned in among the seats the cars took fire, and many people were burned to death. Shortly after the eolliaion, twenty seven heaps of charred and blackened flesh was all that was left of that many people who, a few hours before, were look forward to a week of pleasure and sight seeing at the World's Fair. The herrors of the accident are best told by the survivors, some of whom reached Chicago that afternoon. "■Were you to build a raging fire, and put above it a gridiron and on that place 50 human beings," said Sir. Harris, "you could gain some idea of the scenes which were enacted at Battle Creek this morning. We were awakened by a terrible crash and, before we knew it, the roof of the car had fallen in and everything arcund was afire. Then the cries of agony from the poor vic tims rang out in heart-rendering appeals for aid. Oh, it was frightful, and the mem ory of it can never be erased from my mind. "One poor woman was pinioned in the wreck to her waist. Her arms and the upper part of her body were free. She cried for help and several ot us came to her rescue, but of no avail. In a frantic endeavor to extricate her a man pulled off one ol her hands. It was the most ter rible sight I have ever seen." " All about us," said Mr. Holmes, "were men, women and children held fast in burn ing embers, slowly roasting before the very eyes of would-be ssviors. I broke a window and fought my way through the flames to a place of safety, and ihen I tried to help the others. I saw one poor child with a long rod pierced clear through his body. Thus impaled he screamed in his torture until he was dragged from the wreck." C. H. and B. 8. Ward, brothers, of More town, Vt., were in the third coach and were among the number who escaped un injured. Alter the crash was over C H. Ward jumped out on the felt side through a window. In front of him sat n lady and her baby. He pulled her through the window, when she cried out to save her baby, but the little one was fastened be neath the seat and perished, while the mother was taken away by force. Ward Bays'that in front of the woman was a young lady and just behind her a young man. Back of him were two young men. None escaped. B. S. Ward came out of the roof in some manner he knew not how. He jumped off the roof and assisted out Harvey J. Smith, Mrs. Smith, their son Frank and their daughter Nellie. All the rest in this vicinity were killed. Frank Rogers, of Woonstock, Ont., was in the seeond coach, one next ta-the smok er. He jumped through the window and helped a woman out. Every seat in the car was occupied except two with «nc occupant each. There were only seven that escaped alive from this car. No one can adequately describe the last moments of Mr*. Charles Van Dusen. She had succeeded in getting half way out of the window, but her limbs were pinioned by the heavy frame work of the seat she had been occupying with her husband, and this had taken fire. Thus held roasting from the feet up she pleaded and begged for the help that those outside were unable to give. Despite her terrible agony Bhe re tained consciouness to the last aud as the flames crept up and surrounded her, she called out her name and address and that of friends to be notified. "I am a teacher in the Methodist Sunday school, at Sprout Brook, N. Y.," she cried. "Say I died like a Christian." Then the side of the car gave way and she fell back into the flames. Her husband had meanwhile been rescued from the next car into which he had been driven by the force of the collision. His limbs were fractured and he also received internaf injuries. He retained consciousness until his death that afternoon, but was kept in ignorance of the fate of his wife. In his last breath he asked Rev. Dr. George B. Kulp to send his love to the two children that he bad left at homo and also to give them bin watch. Prospect Happening*.

On Thursday an odd incident happened in the Senate. During a tilt between Hill and Butler, •ome people in the galleries applauded Hill, and Harris of Tennessee, called the attention of the Chair to the rule prohibit ing any expression of approval or disap proval of a speaker. The Cnair announced that upon any further demonstration he would eiforce the rule and clear the gal leries. "Then, Mr. President," came in a ringing voice from the western public gallery for men, "then Mr. President, I as one the common people, who have no business here, will leave the gallery now." Such an unusual occurrence as a speech or a retort of any kind from the galleries created a great sensation, and every eye was turned to the candidate for oratorical honors, A large respectable, looking man in a gray suit was seen making his way as rapidly as possible to the door of the gal lery. when he was met by a watchman and escorted from the building. Attempts of correspondents to interview him ended in failure. He wa3 polite,spoke the Queen's English very well indeed, but refused to say more than that he was from Pennsylvania, had been in Washington for six weeks, had grown very tired of the Senate proceedings, and thought he weuld express his disgust in the most public man ner possible and then go home. Alter re cording this explanation it is needless to say that the unknown gentleman from Pennsylvania was perfectly sober. The applause in the galleries and the uproar excited by the man from Pennsyl vania were not all of the incidents, by any means. When Butler resumed it was to say that it appeared that the friends of the Senator from Xew York filled the galleries, and were disposed to resolve the Senate into a town meeting. If that were the case he would invite the Senator from X»w York to go outside to the street corner and hare it out. This was said jokingly but another Senator thought he was in earnest and made a fuss about. A compromise was talked of that day whioh was to provide for the repeal of the Sherman law on Jan. 1, 1895, and the sell ing of bonds to maintain the gold reserve. On Fiday the Senate confirmed the ap pointment of Mr. Van Allen, of New York to be ambassador to Italy. Mr. Van Allen is a millionaire. He contributed a very large sum to the Democratic campaign fond last year, and his nomination by Pres ident Cleveland has caused considerable adverse criticism. Both the Senators of this state voted for him. On Saturday Mr. Cleveland consented to a modification of the compromise submit ted to him the day before, and there was a great jubilation that night over the pros pect that the end was at hand and con gress in a week or ten days would be home ward bound. The fine Italian hand of Senator Gorman arrainged the final con ditions to which the administration on one hand and the Democratic Senators on the other subrcribed their heroic assent. The bond feature was stricken out in deference to the demands of the southern Democrats, to whom the idea of bonds in time of peace is more exasperating than the tra ditional red flag is to the infuriated buil. In return for this concession the silver I men agreed with wry faces, it is true, and amid a vigorous shower of protests to fix the date of the repeal of the Sherman law at October 1, 1894, less than u year hence. The other features of the compromise are the coinage of the seigniorage of bullion in the treasury amounting to $40,000,000 and the permanent retirement of all classes of notes, except silver certificates, below the denomination of $lO, their re-issue in the denomination of $lO and over. When these ginall notes are called in no more to roam, the use of silver in the small transaction* of life will become inevitable. The steer ing committee presented this proposition to the various Democrats of the Senate, and before adjournment that night it had been signed by thirty-seven of them. Sen ator Voorhees demurred. He took the po sition that if unconditional repeal was to be abandoned greater concessions should be made to silver; but realizing that poli tics is the history of compromises and statesmanship is the science of circum stances he tipped bis hat to fate and agreed to the proposition to take judg ment against the Sherman law, execution to be postponed for one year. On Monday it was announced that the President did not approve of the compro mise bill, and that upset all the calcula tions made. Jones, Stewart and Fuller continued their windwork in the Senate. On Tuesday there was a general break up in the Silver forces, the Southern Sena tors and the Populists deserted the Silver Senators, who, left standing alone, agreed that a vote should be taken soon. The end odtae swiftly and unexpectedly. At noon the silver men talked aH confidently ai ever. The vtteran Senator Harris of Ten i.osee said, "Unconditional r pea cannot succeed until h — freezes over." I'ugli of Alabama re-ecboed his daily re mark of the last week, that "the fight has only begun." The other southern silver senators seemed equally defiant. Vet in side of an hour they all agreed to permit a vote to be taken. Thus in that short period the whole bottom fell out of the contest and the silver senators from the Northwest reluctantly hauled down their colors. At 1 o'clock, while Senator Stewart Nevada was talking to tbe empty seats, tbe correspondent met Senator Dubois in tbe lobby and asked him what the situation wan. He replied: "The jig is up. The sout hern silver senators have deserted us and agreed to aid the administration to se cure a vote, and we shall not filbuster againft it. We have done our duty to our constituents and they can make their own reply when the next election ar rives" This was the first intimation tbat the battle was over. The news spread like wildfire over tbe capitol, and the senators were besiegod to learn what bad occasion ed tbe sudden break up. As near as caii be ascertained the causes diflcr according to the political faith of the silver senators. The democratic senators from the South were brought into line by two reasons— First, the demand ot their constituents for patronage which was being withheld by the administration, and, second, a .ficti tious scare which ht.d been inaugurated in the South by administration agencies. Tbe southern people were told that unless a vote was soon taken, Dave Hill would have a cloture rule adopted, and therefore when the Republicans again came into control a force bill would be passed by the aid of this cloture. The senators yielded, therefore, and agreed to permit a vote to be taken. The Populists allies changed front lor another reason. They believe tbat uncon ditional repeal will aid them to swetp the West aud Northwest next year. They therefore aligned themselves in favor fc of taking a vote. Left to themselves and de serted by three-fourths of their strength, tbe senator* for the silver states had no thing left but acquiesce. Jfttrolia Itcm>. Mr. M.

Gibcon of Fairview has completed the new livery barn for Campbell In a dispatch from Columbus last Saturday, as follows: There is nothing in the Ohio campaign to indicate any change in the march of Governor McKinley to a grand victory on November ". It was thought a week ago that there wa? too much Republican en thusiasm and that the confidence was too great for the good of the party, but the meetings of the present week over the State, which wound up in this city with a mass meeting for Governor McKinley this evening,more than justify the claims which are being made by the Republicans. The attendance at McKinley's meetings during this week, afternoons and evenings, have been something phenomenal in char acter. The Governor himself stated to night, that, compared with his meetings two years ago, those of this campaign are twice as large and much more enthusiastic. The people seem to have something which is of interest to them. On the other hand, speaking in general terms, the Democratic meetings, and especially these addressed by Mr. Neal, have not been of such a char acter a? to inspire or brghten the outlook for success.

Pete McCann. who has hitherto gained tome notoriety on the South Side as a lo cal prize tighter, ha? added to his popu larity by being the gay deceiver ot Jessie McMillen. McCann lives on Jane street, in the Twenty-fourth ward, and his affi anced Jessie lives with her parents oa Sarah street, between Twenty-sixth and Twentj-seventh streets. The lovingyoung man has for months been paying a good deal of attention to iiiss McMillan and th» result is that the young lady appeared before Alderman Succup and sued him on a grave charge. James Sherran, the wide awake con stable of Succup's office, held a warrant for the arrest of McCann. The warrant was served at 7:30 o'clock on Monday evening and arrangements were made for a wed ding to take place at 8 o'clock. But Pete McCann did not appear, While visiting Miss McMillan it seems that Pete was loTing another young lady by the name of Miss Bleichner, from Butler, whom he de termined to made his "better half." They had agreed to be united as »an and wile by Father Devlin, but before the day of the ceremony dawned Miss McMillan interfered and" informed Father Devlin of the situation and that gentleman made up his mind that Peter and Miss Bleichner should not be joined in matrimony by him at the Catholic church. The couple, however, did not get discourged, for they repaired at once to Allegheny City, where the marriage ceremony was performed. Constable Sherran, after learning this fact, went to Allegheny in search of Mc- Cann, but the couple had left _ the place purporting to go on a short wedding tour About 12 o'clock that evening Miss Mc- Millan and a lady friend came to the door of the Sberran's home and with their loud and hurried raps disturbed the constable's peaceful rest. They wanted him to go to Brownstown immediately to arrest Mc Cann, who was at that time feeling glorious amidst his friends at his fathers home celebrating the occasion of his wedding. The constable, of course, gave sensible reasons for not making the arrest at such an improper hour and that he woald sttend to Mr. McCann in the morning. Miss McMillan was not satisfied with the constable's decision and claimed that be couid not accomplish his duty, as Mc- Cann and his young wile were preparing to leave for Butler. Sherran again assured her that he would "catch the bird'' in the morning. And according to promise the young man's arrest was madt at the time mentioned, lie told the constable that it was just what he expected. Among other things, Mr. Sherran asked Miss McMillan "Why would you not marry McCann?" "I didn't want him," she responded; 'it's his money I want." McCann gave bail for a hearing in court, and it is not likely that his case will be brought on belore next June's term. Mr. and Mrs. McCann went to spend their honeymoon at Butler, where they are now enjoying themselves among the young lady's relatives. Resolutions.
