The question is asked, To what party will Col. Eiffel Tower O'Rrien next turn? We violate no confidence in ter. The trouble with the independent farmer and the honest laborer is that both have been made tools ot to a large extent by party newspapers and party politicians, anxious to win their votes in return for telling them they are great people. When they begin forming a party of their own they would better avoid that sort of thing themselves. They would better win by merit than fail by cajolery to which they are not accustomed, or by force, to which the other fellow Is not accustomed. In short, the Nebraska coalition is making an ass of itself one of the sort which acts as reception committee instead of promulgators of a kick. THE HOVCOTT IN roLlTICS. The telegraph stated a few days ago that the independent party of Nobraska had adopted a platform declaring that It would refuse collectively or as purchase a newspaper which should publish anything against the candidates put up by their organiza-tion. Further than this, the members were pledged, accordiug to the dis-patches, .to boycott merchants who, in-tensified by the awful actiou of the party, should persist in readiug or ad-vertising in any uch paper. This seemed to be such a horrible rape on politics, that to The Times it appeared impossible that sane men should pro-mulgate such a platform, so nothing was said until Tull advices came from the battlefield of the convention. It is well that the faith of this paper iu the good Jscnse of Nebraska farmers and knights of labor, of whom the Indepen-dent party is formed, moved it to delay in protesting against such evident big-otry, for it now appears that no such plank was inserted in the platform. However, the possibility Induced a line of thought, which Is as earnest as it may be unwelcome to other farmers aud laborers who mistake bigotry for independence; asiuinity for wisdom; intolerant conspiracy for politics. From away back tho farmer has been con-sidered as a sort of sacred personage. The old school readers used to tell what a great fellow he is, and how much we all depend on him, and it is probablo that thero was never a boy born in tho past coutury who did not determine at one time or other to be an independent tiller of the soil and loll around under the trees and cat fruit and watch tho hired man. The laborer has occupied a high place, too. An honest laborer today Is a mile aud a half a better man than a dishonest king. Hut tho independent farmer and the houcst laborer must not permit their heads to become swollen. They are no more independent and no more honest than other independent uud honest people. The farmer has no more rights than the green-groce- and the laborer isn't a whit better than the bank teller, and the sooner both learn this the bet- - , The Liberal meeting this evening at Vhittemore's Railroad Exchange, near the Union Pacific depot, promises to bo a very enthusiastic affair. Let every Liberal atteud. "All that the Herald asks in the coining election is fair play." And it will get it.

TRIED TO KNOCK OUT DEATH. A tying rugllif Spars with Invisible Enemies. He died with Uis hands up. That was tli ending of William Bren-na- From tlia time he could walk until the hour when he was carried from the prize ring to his dying bed be had culti-vated his pugilistic abilities, and when he lay gasping and delirious, after the knock out administered by Frauk Gerrard in a set to at Chicago the other night, be clinched his fists and sparred at the air as though engaged In a contest for the belt of life with the angel of death. BREXKAS. GERRARD. Brcnnan and Gerrard wore "light-weights," and the match between them that resulted so disastrously was arranged by "backers" who thought they could make money out of the two poor brutes who stood up and thumped each other at their masters' bidding. The battle lasted for only five rounds. Then Brennan was hauled out of the ring like a slaughtered beef, and his conqueror received what is popularly termed an "ovation." When the beaten fighter had breathed his last, however, the police stepped In and arrested five of the chief abettors of the affair, who later on will have to answer the charge of man-slaughter. The rumor of the sale of the Denver News is reiterated in this morning's dispatches. It is stated that the price paid was $400,000, and that the paper will bo at once converted into a repub-lican sheet, and will be managed by Mr. Griffiths, who has made a groat success of the Denver Times. The pur-chasers are said to be Senator Wolcolt, Henry Wolcott," and Assistant Postma-ster- General Clarkson. RUSSIA l'KlWKCUTING THE JEW. The Russian edicts against tho Jews ought not to be a surprise to anyone. Tho persecution of these peopled in entire accord with tho cruel policy of the czar. The horrible cruellies that have been practiced upon tho Siberian exiles have excited tho indignation of tho civilized world, and now the perse-cutions and robbery of the.Jews will add to tho execrations justly heaped upon the Russian government, which ought to bo wiped out of existence by dyna-mite Can anyone wonder that there are nihilists in Russia? Or that tho life of the czar is in constant danger? Under the recent edicts no Jew is any longer permitted to own or even work farfn lands. This means that all Jews engaged iu agriculture must lose their lands and occupation. The result will be poverty and starvation. It is said that tills decree affects over a million people. Tho Jowe have also been ex-pelled by thousand's from the towns and villages. Thero are four million Jews in Russia, and tho object of tho perse-cution is to drive them out of tho coun-try. The dispatches say that civilized Europe Is shocked. It is no wonder. It is to be hoped that civilized Europe will make such a vigorous protest against this wholesale outrage that the Russian government will deem it ad-visable to either modify or completely abrogate tho decrees. A London dis-patch says: The Jews have always been subject to ex-ceptional laws, which, however, did not render their living Impossible. Tbey, in fact, Increased In numbers, wealth, and Intelligence, were In-dustrious, thrifty, g and sober, and were successful as merchants, traders, artisans and agriculturists. A few were permttted to enter the nn versifies, and later became dis-tinguished as lawyers, physicians and men of science. All this Is now changed. Such perse-cution Involves a rellnement of cruelty for which history furnishes no parallel. It Is rumored that tin victims of this Russian op-pression will, as In IS), break through the cor-don on the Austrian and Prussian frontiers and find an asylum In free England, to the In-jury of Its overstocked labor market.

Fifty Dollar for a Wile. Wilkesbakhe, Pa., Aug. 1. Abra-ham Breakstone is Luzerne Borough's leading merchant. Ho is young, hand-some, wealthy, but very bashful. Some months ago he entered into negotiations with Max Levy to procure him a wife. One of the conditions was that the girl must have $1000. Levy, after looking around for a while, succeeded in getting a nice young lady for Breakstone. Her name was Miss Harris. They wore married and Levy received a cheek for 850 for his labor, payable in thirty days. After Breaksloue had been mairied a short time he found that his wife was not worth $1000. He therefore stopped payment on the check, which by this time had fallen into the hands of I rank Yonhosh. The latter brought suit against Breakstone for tho amount, and rather than go to court Breakstone paid the check today. THE LIBERAL TICKET. For county clerk C. K. ALLEN.

HAKRIS For county surveyor CHAS. P. BROOKS. For county treasurer J. G. OALIOHER. Held the Tnpe Line. Lawrence, Mass., Aug. 1. A man dressed as a workingman appeared at noon today at tho rear window of the postofflce where an addition is being built, and asked the clerk there to hold one end of a tape line while he made some measurements. The clerk com-plied, and while he was thus engaged, a companion of the man entered tho money order office and secured $125. Both men. who were strangers in the town, made their escape. In refusing to honor the requisition of the governor of Colorado for a man named Reyuolds, Governor Thomas has taken a commendable position. An inquiry into the case shows that Rey-nolds moved out of Colorado and took with him some mortgaged property, for which he was indicted. He had paid the mortgagors, who are money loan-ing sharks, interest to the amount of $100 over the amount of the original debt. He had thus paid the mortgagors the dobt and $100 beside. Reynolds is the victim of chattel mortgage fiends, and it is thought that when tho governor of Colorado learns the above facts he will be satisfied that the refusal to honor his requisition is cor-rect. In all probability the grand jury which indicted Reynolds would never have done so, had they known to what extent the poor man had been bled; but they simply were given proof that he had run off mortgaged property. We know of no more heartless set of men than the chattel mortgage fiends, who live and thrive upon the misfortunes of their poor fellow creatures. A Murder Over a Woman, Camden, Ark., Aug. 1. News reached here this morning of a diff-iculty between Willie McKee and Co-lumbus Hodge, liviug about fifteen miles from here.iu this county, in which McKee killed Hodge, cutting his jugu-lar vein with a knife. They fell out about a young lady, one accusing the other of having told her something to cause her to slight him. They agreed to fight it out, fair light, but McKee useel bis knife. McKee is still at large. "THAT TIRED FEELING." Chicago Evening Pout. Whon some bore relates a atory That's a chesuut, id and hcury, And, although we would not llston, Btlll he mnliBs uk, Then it is the world aeem dreary And our heart ktows sick and weary, And "that tired feeling" quickly overtakes us. When to some soul we proffer All on earth we have to oiler, As we fall upon our knees, our love revealing, Oh, thim to have her whisper Bhe can only be a "sister," It 1b certain to produce "that tired feeling." When all day in the hot sunlight We have fished and not got one bite, And as toward our home at eve we're slyly stealing, Then to have our friends all spying At us while some ltsh we've buying At the market always brings "that tired feel-ing." Ella Wheelor Wilcox at Home. The days have gone by, let us hope never to return, when a poet was ex-pected to be frowsy, careless or nntidy; but knowing that fact well I had still an agreeable surprise when the door opened for me to Ella Wheeler Wilcox's home. A dainty little vision of a pretty figure in a white cashmere and satin gown, trimmed with swans' down and a soft pink ribbon, with open angel sleeves that revealed dimpled round arms more perfect than a statne, because in addi-tion to their beauty they were of the loving, caressing kind. And the facet Sweet, loving, mobile and sensitive, with beautif ul eyes, classio outlines, delicate coloring and crowned by bronze gold hair. A few handsome rings, a fine, delicate bracelet, and a small flower pin at her throat, and little white kid slippers on her arched feet. That is how Ella Wheeler Wilcox, the representative American poet, looks when in repose, but when she talks it is impossible to chase the pretty little smiles, dimples and expressions that flash orer her mobile face, but the prevailing look is that of deep and abiding tender-ness and an ardent, earnest nature. Happily married to an adoring hus-band whom she proudly proclaims the handsomest man in the world, it is no wonder that she bubbles over with hap-piness and love, or tlutt she has made of her home a perfect little paradise of beanty, or that her very fullness of joy causes her to loos about her for weak and sad ones to help and befriend. Her closest friends knur.' how n. ich she doe and how many she aids, and what a precious privilege it is for her to do for others. L. C R. A Woman Who will Shoot. Ciieyenne, Wyo., Aug 1.

The talk about Gentiles not having furnished work for Salt Lake workmen is tho veriest rot, It may be true that Gentile employers have given tho pre-ference to Gentile workingmeu. That Is perfectly natural. But how often has n Mormon employer given work to a Gentilo! "Salt Lako work for Salt Lake work-men" is a sentiment that is eminently proper, and so far as the Liberals are concerned it has been carried out. It was tho Liborals who made it possible for workiugmen to obtain employment In this city at good wages. But when a workingman moves here with his fam-ily from some other place and makes this city his home he becomes a Salt Lake workingmau, and is entitled to as much consideration as any who have preceded him. The present working-men- 's population of Salt Lake is largely made up of men who hare locatod here within the last three or four years. It Is true that a few outside contract-ors have obtained jobs here, because they were the lowest bidders, but they all employ Salt Lake workmen. An Affecting Farewell. Calhonn (Ga.) Courier. We shall leavo Leary to cast our lot elsewhere. Tho place of our future residence has not yet beon determined. It is probablo that we shall still cling to the newspaper business, for tho ink-stai-are hard to eradicate when they fall upon a yielding proclivities as are ours. God bless you all, and make dear the dark places iu you pathways, and in the end may wo "gather at the river," where bogus advertisers, doliu- - auunt subscribers, sorehead and politicians, political demagogues, village gossips and the man who knows how to run a paper cometh not. And even unto such as these, may tho mer-cies of heaven reach and save I Burglar and the Cops. At first sight ouo would suppose that the class above all others that would hail with delight a general strike of police would be the burglars. Curi-ously enough this is not. so, says the London Mercury, Tho professional burglar is dead against such a strike; for, as he correctly reasons, though tho police ceased to protect property, prop-erty would not thereby be left unpro-tected. In fact, it would be protected all the more by the owners themselves, and the burglar's special knowledge, acquired from local observation of the habits of tho police, would for the time being be useless. In tho police the burglar knows exactly what he has to cope with. When every householder is his own policeman, however, it is differ-ent, for the burglar is quite ignorant of the weapons that may bo waiting to roceive him la uy given case. All quiet in Buenos Ayres. The rev-olution was a very rapid transit move-ment. The People's party has three days more of existence After that it wlil be a thing of the past. Train robbers and a three-cornere- d campaign are making things exten-sively lively for Nebraska people. ' Sheriff Burt will never have an-other opportunity of expending public money in the interest of tho People's ' party. ' Is it possible that ' the "working-men's- " ticket was "rovealed" to its makers! If so, the angel that whis-pered it stulterod abominably. Genkral Brooke aud General Kautz are having a row by mail. This is quite as safe a method of lighting as devour-ing rations aud wearing plumed hats at dress parado. CLIPPED AND CONDENSED. A choer is due the Dutchmen. When the Print, Frederik collided with the English ship Marpnssa on June 25 the commander of a dtachment of Dutch colonial forces which happened to be on board immediately ordered the assem-bly sounded, and the men fell in on the deck like clockwork in the face of cer-tain loss to the ship. Their conduct was an iuvaluable example to the pas-sengers and crew, for, although the en-tire company were then transferred to the boats with perfect quiet and dispatch the Printz Frederik went down as the last boat left her side. She carried with her six Dutch privates and an officer, who doubtless had beeu over-whelmed by the waters rushing in 'at the point of collision. Chris SchatTer, the man who discov-ered John Morrissey, taught him to write his name, had him traiued for his first light and helped him along the flowery path of fame generally, is "dealing'' in a faro game at Saratoga. Schaffer states what isn't generally known, thnt Morrissey died in parlor'5 at the Adelphi hotel in Saratoga, and that his bills for doctors, nurses and board for his family, amounting to about $800, are still unpaid. Morris-sey'- s mother was drowned near Troy the morning Morrissey sailed from New York to see the Heenan-Sayer- s right. He did not defer the trip, how-ever, and Schaffer represented him at the funeral and paid the expenses. Not the least acceptable of many heartfelt congratulations to Cardinal Manning on his "silver jubilee" were those of the superiors, sisters aud tho old men, womeu aud voung children who are inmates of Nazareth house, Hammersmith. They presented to him "the father of the poor" a beautiful illuminated address. On hearing that the Did people were in attendance at the cardinal's house, the venerable pre- late observed: "They must not have the trouble of coining upstairs; I will go down to them. They are old; I am young." The cardinal gave a book and a picture to a poor armless girl an of Nazareth house who had written him a letter with the pen in her mouth, and sent his special blessing to tb whole community with all his heart. China is spending this year about $3,000,000 in the effort to regulate its wayward river, the Hoang Ho, which has rccentty caused such terrible loss of life and property. A part of its waters are to be permanently diverted into the Tu hai. a river north of the Hoang Ho and almost parallel with it. Dams are also to be built to hold back a part of the Whters at flood, and the stone walls will be rebuilt along the banks to coufinc the stream. The in-genuity of man has not vet devised effective protection against this most troublesome of rivers, and when the remedy is found it will probably cost a colossal sum of money to apply it. The governor of Shantung reports that he i' iu his Provice atone at least 5.000.000 to prevent the recurrence of the floods. A New Discovery, M. Trojanowski, a Polish chemist, has discovered what he claimes to be a substitute for gum arable, by boiling one part of flaxseed with eight parts of dilute sulphurio acid in eight parts of water until the mixture, which at first thickens, becomes quite fluid. The compound is then strained through mus-lin aud four times its volume of strong alcohol is added. The procipitate, after being filtered, washed with alco-hol and carefully dried, produces a clear gum devoid of all taste or odor. Thirty grains, it is said, are a sufficient emulsion for an ouuee of cod liver oil. The valuo of this invention will, of course, depend on how far this new article can be relied on as a substitute for the original, and the cost at which it can be produced for the market. A new shell has lately beeu invented by an Austrian for the purpose of scat-tering oil over the waves during a storm.
