OUR COUNTRY : First, Last and Forever.
Tub latest: AKiUnaldo's present
locution is unknown.
If our anus linel captured Aggie's
mother-in-law, there would be no tell
inpr when the war would end.
Ex-Speaker Rkkd will have the
satisfaction of knowinfj that his rules
are to continue long after his rule is
ended.
FOR a uian of such small stature,
citizen James Oleary seems to be
carrying some very larg.j chips on his
shoulders.
We are indebted to Hon. Charles
N. ftrnmm for bound conies of the
Congressional Record of the 54th
Concress, for which he will accept
our thanks.
Thk "Insurgents," according to
newspaper reports, will carry the war
against tho "Old Man" to the bitter
end. And the end is not yet but
who will reap the bitter end T
A MAN on a leaky steamship at sea
is nothing compared to the feeling of
hra silvr "leaders" as a result of
the November election in this county,
Ex-Senator King and his friends have
the laugh on them.
Thk Miners' Journal makes serious
accusations against some of the He
publican leaders in this county.'and
when requested to come out in the
open and name the men charged, our
contemporary fails to respond, in
Justice to other leaders, the Journal
should be more explicit.
Thk First Assistant Postmaster has
decided that it will be incompatible
with the best interest of the service
to retain married women as post
office clerks. The department has
ruled that when a woman clerk
marries it will be necessary for them
to resign from the service. The
naughty department !
The coining Spring eleotiou in
Shenandoah, if it is possible to forecast
from the expressions of voters of both
parties, will be decided upon the
merits of the candidates, irrespective
of party affiliations. The independent
voter will be out in force in February,
and the party that selects the most
capable and intelligent nominees for
Council and School Board will control
those bodies next year.
Oslt a little over two weeks re
malu before Christmas, and the boll
day season in the stores lias already
started la encouragingly. Show win
dows are full of new and attractive
things, and the stores themselves are
packed with new stocks of holiday
goods ready for the onslaught of the
shoppers. Many people are wise
enough to do their Christinas buying
before the crowded days of the end
of the season, thug avoiding the dis
comfort of the orowds, and also hav
ing tilt; advantage of full fitoeksfroin
which to make their selections. The
leweldrs. the dry goods men, the
clothiers, the shoe men, the grocers,
furniture men, haberdashers, inilii
ners. stove men; Indeed, all the mer
chants are showing unusual activity,
and the streets in the shopping centre
already present a much busier ap-
nearance than for many a day. The
storekeepers expect a very busy sea
son. and have prepared themselves
for it in a generous fashion, and the
prudent ones tell the people what
they have to sell through the Hkrald
columns, whose circulation is equal
to that of all other publications eoui

A PROPOSED INVESTIGATION
TST Coiifrreim nt Alletreri Cruelties to
Iriulio Miner.
"Washington, Dec. 9. Representative
Lentz, of Ohio, yesterday introduced a
Joint resolution reciting the charges
growing out of the presence of United
Btates troops under Brigadier General
Merriam at the centers of mining
troubles In Idaho, and asking for an
Investigation by a special committee
of nine members, to be appointed by
the speaker. The solution says that
It is a matter of general information
that United States troops were sent to
Idaho in defiance of and contrary to
the federal constitution. It Is asserted
that General Merriam declared mar
tial law, and "arbitrarily and without
warrant of law" arrested hundreds of
citizens and held them under "most
brutal and tyrannical conditions."
The arrests, it is charged, included
many members of the miners' union
and the local sheriff. It is asserted
that many men were imprisoned in a
"bull pen," a place unfit for human
habitation. Allegation is made that
one prisoner became insane from the
treatment, and escaping was shot as
he jumped into a river. It is also
charged that a dying prisoner was de
nied spiritual consolation. Specific
acts of cruelty are given, Including
compulsory standing erect for seven
hours each day In the hot aun, under
penalty of death if attempt was made
to move or sit down. It is alleged
also that a captain under General
Merriam "amused himself by calling
prisoners 'cowardly cur,' while these
punishments were being inflicted." The
resolution also recites that the wives
and families ot miners were insulted
by soldiers, and it is alleged that re
sponsibility for the various actions re
cited rests with the mining companies
of the locality.

Atlanta, Dec. 8. By a vote of 26
to 14 the Willlngham bill was killed
in the senate yesterday ami state pro
hibition defeated. The various roll
calls consumed an hour, a great many
senators rising to explain their votes.
The debate was carried on with great
Vigor. Had the measure passed the
senate it would have been so amended
as to kill its purpose. The fight has
been the fiercest the s'.ae has ever
known along this line, hut it is now
believed the question Is uifectually set
tled for some time.

Bon, leader of the minority, taunted
some of the majority leaders with thoir
change of front in coming out for tho
gold standard, but Mr. Grosvanor and
Mr. Cannon good naturedly replied that
they had learned somothlng with ad
vancing years.
Representative .Hltt, of Illinois, in
troduced a bill to provide a territoria

A M0L1NGUX WITNESS CAPTURED
Luroil Into Now Yorlc State nnd
PIhooiI Umlor Arrojit.
New York, Doc. 9. Several Interest
ing points developed yesterday in con
nection with the trial of Roland B.
Mollneux for tho murder of Mrs.
Adams. First there was the capture
of an important witness for tho prose
cutlon, This was Mamie Mullands,
the young woman who cared for Moli-
neux's rooms at Newark. Through
ruse she was Induced to cross the stato
line from Now Jersey to Suffern, N. Y
nnd was arrested and brought to this
city. It is said she will be placod on the
Stand and compelled to testify thatMol-
lneux was accustomed to use the now
famous blue paper surmounted by the
throe Interlaced crescents.
The legal battle raged around the
question of expert testimony and the
admissibility of handwriting when "not
disputed." Attorney Weeks fought gal
lantly for his client, but In the end th)
prosecution triumphed, the recorder
saying that the court would be forced
to consider the exhibits as being In the
handwriting of the defendant unless
the testimony of Expert Kinsley, who
testified that In his opinion Mollneux
wrote the address on the poison pack'
age, should be Impeached or contra
dicted by the defense in some manner.
It seemed a day of victories for the
prosecution.

Unnr lUvlrtpnooa of l'rospcrlty For
tho Comlnir Your.
Now York, Dec. 9. It. a. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review of trade says: Tho
npiiroach-of a new year usually brings
bo rnucli of hositatlon in lmsinoas that
tho small shrinkage this year is sur
prising. Probably never before navo
the productlvo forces of tho country
boon so largely covered by contracts
at this date, onsuring employment and
profit fnr Into tho coming year. This
results not from any moro speculntlvo
oxcltement, but from actual demands
for consumption running far beyond
the producing capacity horotofore, and
pushing it to remarkable expansion.
Tho increase in foreign trade has been
insignificant compared with the in
crease of $21,000,000,000 in payments
through clearing houses. For tho week
tho payments have been 20.3 por cent
largor than last year and 38.1 per cent
larger than In 1892.
Uradstreet's review says: Tlie last
month of tho year has opened aus
piciously, finding trado and Industry
generally well employed, uomanu
treading close upon and even passing
supply, labor troubles, avorted In Bomo
instances by widespread ndvancos in
wacos. of small Imnortanco except in
