Campbell of Pittsburg, was the city this morning on his way home from the Ottowa Assembly, It is said in tho weather dispatches that a cold wayo is coming, so that wo may hope by to-morrow t(hnvo cooler weather.

Jeff Chandler, a democratic candidate for United States Senator in Missouri, gives it as his opiulonthat Mr. Cleveland's jwlitical ntar has set, his ideas on silver and tariff having killed him. The pension business might be taken too far; for instance, Congressman Con nel of Nebraska proposes to pension all the frccdmcn. It looks like a ioke, and yet the man may bo in earnest. Mrs.

Paul Crcscy died this morning at two o'clock, at the family residence In the north part of the city. The funeral was held to-day at tho residence and tho re mains buried at Union cemetery west of the city. Messrs. B. F.

Nye and C. G. Horn have rented the Wedge Lunch Counter, near the Santa Fe depot, and will commence business Monday. They are clever gen llcmcn. and will do a large business.

We wish them great success. The floral designes on the coffin of Mr. Walker yesterday were quite beautiful. They were floral contributions by a num ber of Chanute beats any town we have eycr seen, in that beatiful way of expressing sympathy and esteem for the dead. Toll tho boll.

The Blade was quite bright in its wit, in regard to the results should the boiler in the Times office burst.

We do like a wit ty, bright paper, even if It aims its keen darts at us. But, was It not awful mean to strike a fellow with so keen a blade, while he was at prayer? We want to engage tho Blade to write three columns next week, and we give it tho following pointers: What part of the McKlnley Bill is i "monstrosity?" Particularize, please. Are you satisfied with what the Repub lican House and Senate have done on the pension question? Are you in favor of tho removal of tho tariff duty on sugar, so as to save tho pco pie this tax of $50,000,000. Answer please yes or no. Do you indorse the law for the suppression of trusts, lately passed by the Republican congress.

Is your Blvdo a keen Turkish CImctcr, or is It simply tho Blade of the old hatchet Washington carried? You see by this question, We are shyly letting tho pcoplo know why you never lie. Now please Are up with an origina package, and go for this, and don't stop under three columns. Oh, by tho way, that reminds us, we wans to ask another qucstton that will trouble your democracy. Are you in favor of a re-submission of tho prohibi tion section of tho state constitution to the voters of this state? Now, no polyfoxln'; give us straight exercises at the Indian Industrial School, Haskell Institute, took' place to day. Large numbers of visitors were present from this and neighboring cities.

Several Indian chiefs from tho Indian Territory attended. Among the number being White Eagle, of tho Pawnees. During tho past year an additional terra's work has been placed on the course, with the result that there nro no graduates this year. Tho class that completes tho work next Juno represented the school iu tho exercises to day. It numbered thirteen, their names and tribes being as follows: Wm.

Trotta, Cherokee; Jeffry Gouletto, Sioux; Walter Shawnee, Shawnee; Dudley, Shawnee; Post Graduate, Jas. Plakc, Muncie; Geo. Crafford, Seneca; Service Karllio, Seneca; Roid Winncy, Seneca; Frank Eagle, Ponca; Jesso White, Miami, Min-nio Schiffbauer, Seneca; Ernest Robetaille, Wyandotte; Nicodemus llcrr, Muncie. During tho forenoon tho industrial departments were thrown open to the public, and there were many visitors from the city. The number of pupils in attendance is 434; 100 more than auy previous year in tho history of tho school at the close of tho term.

Word In tho industrial departments continues during the summer, school being closed until September 1. Tho school rooms were to-day thrown open to tho public for inspection. Invocation was delivered by Dr. James Marvin a superintendent of the institution. The salutatorian was Frank Eagle.

He is one of the brightest pupils of tho school, and his father, White Eaglo, Is chief of the Ponca tribe of Indians, This oration was followed by class exercises, which consisted in every class of the school marching from their rooms to the platform and going through tho exercises. Each class carried a banner, and the exercises were yery entertaining. The title of Wm. Trott's oration was "progress." He is one of the most industrious pupils of the school both in his studies and at his trade carpentering. Ho is very ingenious, and a first-class workman.

Minnie Schiffbauer, the only lady member of the class, read an essay entitled "Women in Education." She is a handsome girl, 19 years of age, and holds her own with the male members of her class. A paper was read by Walter Shawnee entitled "History of Haskell Institute." He is the farthest advanced pupil of his age in tho school. He is but 14 years old, and has been in tho school two and a half years. He is an excellent workman, having learned the harness-making trade at the school Reid Winney is the orator of tho school. He has an excellent voice and has had a great deal of experience in speaking.

The title of his oration was "Industry, the Price of Success." He is about 21 cars old, and came to Haskell from Baxter Springs; he is a carpenter by trade. The paper "Looking Backward," by Jeffry Gouletto, was one of the best written productions of the program. It was a class prophecy and a pen picture of the situation of the pupils of the class twenty years hence. Consumption Ms generally caused by neglect.

Rutherford B. Hays, cx-Prcsldent, lias proven the greatest sensation of tho whole Ottawa assembly. President Harrison has not vetoed a singlo pension bill, and ho will not. Truly this has been a soldiers administration. Mr.

C. C. Boman will please accept our thanks for a lot of tho very nicest poaches wo have seen this year. Ex-United States Senator T. W.

Palmer of Michigan, has been chosen present of tho Chicago worlds fair and' exposition, with Mr. Dickerson of Texas, Wo glvo it as our deliberate opinion that nine-tenths of tho dissatisfaction ex pressed in tho United States with Governmental affairs, Is caused by discords sown by disappointed ofllec seekers. J. Q. Adel is personally acquainted with cx-President Hayes, having lived at Columbus, Ohio, when Mr.

Hayes was Governor, They met yestcrdny and re newed their old acquaintance and friendship. We learn that Mr. C. A. Dunakin has permanently located at Rico, Colorado, In an extensive house of miners supplies.

We do not know the particulars, but wo can say that the people of Rico will And Mr. a splendid business man and an excellent gentleman. Tho brothers and sisters of tho late G. Walker, desire, through the columns of tho Times, to express their sincere thanks to a generous public, to special friends and neighbors, for many acts of kindness and sympathy during the sickness and death of their brother. The President has signed the pension bill, thus finishing up for the time being, tho largest pension scheme eycr inaugura ted and carried out.

Where is the man with so -little sense as to say, that tho lie publican party has not done its duty on pensions? Hemingway, the defaulting treasurer of Mississippi gets five years In the peniten tiarv. A good beginning. Now where is Archer of Maryland, Tate of Kentucky, Polk of Tcnncsee, Smith of Alabama, Burke of Louisiana, Noltind of Missouri, etc. All defaulting damocratic ex-Slate Treasurers. A young boy in this city set a rat trap, and caught an immense four pounder by the foot.

When he saw him hung in trap, he became so excited that he flew at the big rat and caught him in his hands. The rat tried to use his great squirrel teeth on the boy, but got strangled to death for his pains. A brave but reckless boy. All our citizens who were at Ottawa, came homo perfectly enthusiastic about ex-President Hays, and say that intcllcc tually, he is one of the strongest men they ever heard. By his present visit to Kansas, he has raised himself in the esti mation of Kansas people, at least 100 per cent.

With the trust question settled by nl most a unanimous vote of both Houses of congress; the pensions settled to tho satisfaction of all reasonable people, and by a unanimous yote of the Republican mem bers of congress; the tariff and the silver questions likely to be settled in eminently satisfactory ways, what more is there to kick about? We have the best Govern ment in the world, and ought to have the hoppiest people. A now train on tlie Santa Fo. Topeka, June 25, Tho Santa Fe will put on anew train in a few days from Kansas uity to uirara, rmsiiurg, Jonim and Galena giving superior servico to the mining regcion which has hcrtofore been but poorly supplied with passenger train service. Tho train will leave Kansas City about 0:30 p. m.

and will arrive in Galena the next morning nt breakfast time. It will connect with the Snnta Fc's newly nc yulrea auxiliary, tnc a risco. This will be a new train for Chanuto, and will connect with Girard, Pittsburg, Joplin and Gclcna via tho Girard Brnnch and will by connecting with tho 'Frisco, give us a much quicker route to St. Louis and tho east. Ogdon, San Francisco 300,000.

Now York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Boston, St. Louis and Brooklyn will bo found bo the largest cities, two of them nt least, going beyond a million Inlmbltats, each. The Y. M. C.

A. will hold a consecra tion and confession meeting to morrow morning nt 8 o'clock, Tho afternoon mens meeting at 4:15 will bo conducted by Dr, T. R. Ddwards. No moro profitable place can bo found to spend an hour than in these mens meet- ngs and young men nro always cordlullv welcomed.

Ex-President Hayes, liko somo othors, is htgling and hagllng about the tariff question. The whole thing is very plain to us. Wo want to raise just enough money by tariff duties, and no more, to pay the expenses of tho Government; an 4 these taxes we want to levy in such a way, ns will protect American labor, give it good wages, and build up for tho farmers homo markets. This is all there is to the tariff question. With $200,000,000 a year for pensions, and tho other necessary expen- diturcs of the Government, it is impossible to make any great reduction in tariff du ties now; for if we rcduco the tariff rove.

nues below the expenditures of tho Government, then direct taxation or excessive internal duties will be the result. When we loose tho $50,000,000 a year from su gar, tho reduction is about as much as we can bear. In divers parts of the United State, norm and south, cast and west alike, a free ballot and a fair count arc unknown in elections. Throughout the gulf states of the south the negro vote is notoriously suppressed, The national election law aims to recti fv these abuses so far as the elections of congressman and the President an1 con cerned. It is intended to operate equally in Indiana and Misisslppi.

It can only be regnrded as sectional by the admission that evils it seeks to correct arc more prevalent in ono section of the union than another. This admission the southern democratic congressmen insist upon making, uy their attitude and their utterauces they force observers to regard the national election bill as a measure not intended to rectify election abuses in all parts of the country, but simply as an nttempt to force the recognition of votes cast by southern negroes in national elections. Accepting this definition of tho bill, do we find it any less worthy of support? The teople of the United States have given the negro the right to vote. Whether wise or unwise, the action has been taken and is practically irrevocable, for the pos sibility of tho repeal of the Fifteenth Amendment can scarcely be imagined By the same act which gave tho negro the right to vote the people authorized congress to protect him in this right, and it is upon that authority that those who now urge the passage of the national election law are acting. It must bo remembered that Congress docs not propose to interfere with state or municipal elections.

The bitter cry of Hemphill of Alabama that "we (the whites) know wo must rule that country or leave It," is mere buncMne when the purpose of the bill is considered. It is not proposed to assist tho blacks in capturing the state and municipal govcrments. It is better by far that the whites should for a timerctaiu control of the machinery of local taxation and disbursement. But no possible evil can come to tho people of Mr. Hemphill's district because of a president or a congressional majority pnt in power by tho nid of negro votes.
