HAYKS OX CONKMXU.
Tho Cleveland Herald publishes an
interview with Kx-Presidant Hayes In
which he says Mr. Conkllng is a mon
omaniac on tho subject ot his own im
wortnnco. Ho is a monomaniac. This
is quite a common phnso of Insanity
Tho malady often takes that form. Pa
tionts often Imagine they arc bonio dls

in defeating it. There nover would

I will not say ho falsified in this case,

WHAT CIIKKK.
Speaking of gall, remarked a printer
In Nevada beer saloon, talking of solid
cheek, I never saw a man who had any
more of It than Peto UUvens of Kansas

there in 1872. Ono night in July it was
so hot that if you'd chuck water on tlio
side of a house it .vould si, like so much
hot iron wo concluded to go down and
sleep on one of tliu timber rafts on tho
river. Well, wo got on the rafts with
our blankets. Just before turning in
Peto IHlveus said ho guessed ho'd cool

and ho dived otl' tho raft. Tho under
tow caught and sent him out of sight
in about three seconds. As soon as wo
saw ho was drowned mo mid thu other
chap went for his effects. Wo found
$8 60 hi his pants pocket mid an old
watch. We took 'em up town and
soaked tlio clothes for $!) and bold tho
watch for $10. Thon wo wont around

"MVH, THINK AND I.AIIOU."
An Earncut Apponl for Coinmntntton
or (lie Honteneo of tho Talbot Hoy.
Tlio following taken from tho St,
Joseph Herald is an earnest and olo'
nuont anneal In behalf of tho Talbolt
boys who aro peiitcncd to bo hanged
June 24, and which no doubt everyone
in this community mo well acquainted
with tlio facts. Wo do not ontertaln tlio
eenlimentnl Ideas expressed by a great
many in regard to capital punishment,
yet wo bellovo Governor Crittenden
would bo justlllcd and upheld by every
citizen in tills community In setting
aside tho extreme penalty lived by law,
the reasons for which aro clearly stated
in tlio nrticlo below:
"Tho mode and manner in which tho
two pons of tin Into Dr. Talbott aro to
bo executed on tlio 24th ot Juno seem
already to bo subjects of discussion, as
it pardon mid inorcy wero to bo denied
in advance, without rclicctloii or con
sideration. Tho sacrilU'o of human
lito under any circumstances demands
both. This blessed Sabbath moruing,
so soon to bo enlivened by tlio chimes
of tho numerous churches of Christ, is
our time for such i eduction and con
sideration. Tlio Christian people of this great
city after reading this morning's Herald
will repair to tho Lord's sacred temples
and hear rovorOned Hps repeat the
mighty words of Ood "Vengeance is
mine and I will repay" and those
other holy words In behall of trail
humanity "Thou shalt iovo thy nidgli
bor as thyself!' and then decide
whether two mero boyo one under 17
years of ago shall bo hanged by the
ueuk until they urn dead, without so
much as considering whether such a
Micrillco of human lilo is indispensa
bly necessary.
Aiuert t , aim unaries iv. raioou
havo been Indicted, Arraigned and
tried by a court and Jury of Nodaway
county for tho murder of their father.
Tho verdict of tho jury was ugaiust
them and tlio .sentence ot death has
followed as a matter of statutory law.
Till is tlio ordinary course in all cases.
Tho pardoning power mid tho power to
cnmmiito sentences ot dentil to im
prisonment in tlio penitentiary aro
vested In tlio Governor by tho organic
law of the State. Hois part of tho le
gal machinery of death in all cases of
tliis character and a God-llko power
over human lilo in his hands.
It is not our province to pass upon the
guilt or luiioeuiico of tho condemned
boy. That has been done bv a jury
of tholr countrymen. Hut it is our
pioviueo and our right and tlio right ot
ovury other citizen to rellcet and con
sidur if there aro not good reasons why
the-o death penalties should be com
mitted to imprisonment, at hard labor,
for tho natural lives ot' tho condemned.
Wo think there aro such reasons:
First. Tlio principle, witness of the
State, without whoso evidence a verdict
of guilty could not havo been rendered,
avowvd under uatli that ho was an ac
complice in tho crime. Human testi
mony, ut bct, is not infallible; tlio
oath of u confessed muidercr is a mock
ery. ticcoml. Tlio next most important
witness for tho Statu was n man who
had absolutely served a term In the
State's prison, and had "worked up"
ids evidence as a hired detective. Take
out of these cases tho ciidcuco ot a'
confessed murderer and a lelonious
detective and no uuu pretends that a
conviction could have been had.
Third. How improbable that the con
demned sons would havo killed their
own father in cold blood! That ancient
state that refused to make ii statute to
punish parricide did so on tho high
irroiiinl that such a crime could not bo
committed.
Fourth. In hundreds and thousands
of eases of conviction on circumstantial
totlmouy It lias been discovered, too
late, that tho innocent liavu been sac
rilieed on suspicion, and by means of
(also witnesses.
Fifth. If guilty of taking tho life of
their father, it seems evident that their
father knew it, und if so, ho willed
them to live. Ho closed his month
against them. Shall wo bo less charit
able thctn ho?
Sixth. The extreme youth of the con
demned boys should bo a strong plea
for commutation.
Seventh. Finally, ifthev aro truiltv In
tho fullest seuso of the term, why would
tlioy bo favored witli speedy and in
sjntitaucous deatli on tho scaffold? A
greater and mora appropriate punish
ment under tho law can bo Inflicted.
Let them, by commutation, for the
whole of their natural lives, in cloo
conllnement in felon cells, bo doomed
to live, to think itnd to labor.
Mr. lieeoher lias given his personal
approval to tlio revised edition of tiio
IJiblo. To know tiiat Mr. ,lteecher is
on their xldo will bo very gratifying lo
tlio families ot Arpluixad, Kind, Joktau,
Aliuodad, Ho.arniavoth, and other
srentleinan mentioned m tlio work,
many ot .vhoin are now dead.
The Michigan Senate lias passed a
bill making it a criino, punishable by a
lino of 1,000 and a year in jail, to pub
lisli accounts of minders, executions,
seductions, etc. Wo wonder if they
have any lunatic asylums in that
State. If not what a splended Held there
is hi tliatttatu fur about a dozen.
It Is said that tho Irish aro not doing
tholr planting tins Spring because of
tlio great uncertainty as to what will
lio dono in regard to tho tenures by
which they hold their farms Tin means
to buy seeds are not plenty with them,
and tlioy feel do courago or ambition
to do work which may amount to noth
ing. If tills is really so tiio result will be
a tcrriblo fiiiiiino,worcc than ever before
known even in that country of famines.
Tho arrest of Mr. Dillon will not tend
to cuuouaago confidence in tlio ultimate
nocessof tho Land Leaguer.

Slio Insists that It is of more import-
unco that her family shall ho kopt In

with enough Hop Hitters, at tlio Hist
iippearanco of any symptoms of ill
health, to prevent a lit of sicklies?,
with lis attendant expense, care and

Mk. Conki.ino squares tho circle
thus:
1. I have resigned my feat In tho
Senate and nothing will indtico mo to'
take It again.
If I should lo rejected by acclama
tion, and Piatt too, It might be our du
ty to accept a "vindication."
!l. If I should bo re-clceted without
Piatt it might bu possible for mo to. re
sist tlio will of tlio people.
4. If I can get a barn majority of, a
caucus it will bo my duty to consider
tho matter,
fi. I shall bo too Iinppy to bo re elect
ed by tlio aid of Democratic votes.
6. It would bo better to re-elect mo
mid a Democrat than to havo u half
breed returned.
7. Itntlim- limit let nnvlmdv else tnko
my place, I would havo tho election
postpoaud until next winter.
i) Tlio grapes hang exceedingly
high, and It is my private opinion thoy
aro sour.
9. They aro sour, and I return to my
original position, from which I havo
never departed, and I will not accept a
re-election under any eireumstiuteol.
