TheOolumbua Daii.v Times is one
of the best papers published in Geor

prietors are as clever as any in the

The above notice in that sterling
Weekly, the Opelika Times, is a Mat
tering compliment.. We thank its
able editor, Mr. Keiser, and extend to
him the courtesies of our office.
The Columbus Dai In Time* has
removed its office to the old quar
ters of the Enquirer, opposite Gil
bert’s Steam Printing House, where
it will have ample facilities for its
large and rapidly increasing patron
age. The building has been greatly
improved, and in its new quarters we
apprehend that the Time*, although
now a very hadsotne paper, will be
still further improved. Its corps of
printers is among the best in the
State.
The above is from the Troy Afrssen
<ier. Truly, we are gateful for this
oordial endorsement.

'‘Mansion of the Skies and is

A few words by way of applica
tion. Hines is no worse than nine
tenths of the Radical office-holders
in Alabama during the last six years.
They all revolve in one circle. When
the scandalous transactions of Hines
can no longer be concealed, the Uni
ted States Government removes him
from office. In Alabama, however,
when Radical officials are convicted
of stealing, and other high crimes,
and the peouje seek their removal
from office on that account. Attorney
General Williams denounces it ns
persecution for opinion sake. Troy
Aressenger.
The State tax remains where the
Radical Legislature put it at three
fourths of one percent. The tax-col
lectors will make their rounds as
usual. The tax-payers will not be
able to pay the assessments. The
newspapers will he full of tax sales’
advertisements. And nine-tenths of
the lands sold for taxes will lie
bought by the State -confiscated to
the State.
We have told our readers for four
years that their State tax ought not
to be over one-half of one per cent.
We contributed something to the
victory of last fall by promising a re
duction of the rate. And we are not
in any mood now to say, “Well done
thou good and faithful servant" to
any member of the Legislature who
diil not vote to reduce the pay of
Stale and other officers, and to lessen
the taxes. Selma Argu*.

Palatlta Herald: Steaming along

New Yokk, April 8. An attempt to
bring about a fight between Tom Al
len, of St. Louis and Ben Hogan, of
l’etrolia, IVnn., resulted, yesterday
afternoon, in the completion of nr#
rangeraents to light early this morn
ing in a room in this city for live
hundred dollars. Tlie place of meet
ing was kept strictly secret. Hogan
was on hand, but Allen failed to ap

the fight should take place to-day in
New Jersey, or some other locality
fifty miles from New York, Both
men have left the city for the fighting
ground. The police are on the alert

Philadelphia, April 8. -- Louis K.
Loves, who killed his wife, last, night
and afterwards cut his own throat,
died at Pennsylvania hospital at six
o’clock this morning*. The cause of
the tragedy is not positively known,
but is supposed to have been jeal
ousy on the part of the husband. An
effort was made to get him to give*
some statement of the affair, but it
was unsuccessful. The deceased
[couple were both tine looking per
sons. Loyes was about 20 years of
! age and his wife 28. That the horri
| ble deed was oontomplated is evident
! from a letter of Loyes’ found in the
I house. This note is in possession of
| the police, and, it is said, gives direc
j tions to his mother as to what dispo

Hazleton, Pa., April 8. —The out
look in this region is decidedly
gloomy for a peaceful settlement,
and a collision between the miners

day to the effect that an armed mob
numbering r<Oo inert are marching
from Manticokc and Wanomie upon
the Lehigh and Wilkesbarrc Coal
Company’s mines, at Hanover Sta
tion, eight miles from here. No re
liable information can be had from
that quarter to verify the report.

trouble anticipated here between the

ary last. The men in this section are
j making no demonstrations whatever.
