Senator Hill am-; Mr. Cleveland as "our candidate." Ir is strange that the frse trade orjrans liaven't tried to exterminate the cholera by pronouncing it unconstitutional. " Usc'N'snTcrios AUTv" appears to be the word that il sapping the vocal strength of the Democratic rpeikere this eeason. Tukkf. will be no kictinj against the decision of a Georgia jadjje that "a mule is a deadly weapon."

Five thousand jpeople heard him expound the truth in Wil mington, Del., on Saturday night, Vp to date it has cot.t the State about f 110,'0 for the military force it Las len ncKX-ssary to keep at Homestead to com jel the riotoos element to submit to the Jaw. Tus next great assemblage of people at Washington, will be on the 4th of March next, to w itness the ceremonies attend ing the second inauguration of Benjamin Harrison. The first convention of white Demo crats held in the S juth sinje the close of the war at which protection to American labor and industry was favored was held at Birmingham, A !a last Thursday. It is a hopeful kign. AooKDiNii to ex-Commander in Chief 1'ahner, there were between Cti.000 and ti7,(uO veterans in the great parade at Washington on Tuesday of last week. Th hoge army was nearly nine h ours in passing a given poin t. The Democrat! c gerrymander of Indi ana has been declared unconslituti mal. It is a notable fact that the only reappor tionments w hich have been set aside by t lie courts as unfair aud prejudiced have been the work of Democratic Legisla tures. Ir is stated by authority of an official of the B. & O. Uailroad Co. that, at the G. A. It. encampment at Washington last week, that company had over 3UU0 Pull mans and coaches on its tracks in tha. city, requiring over thirteen miles of track to accommodate them, and other roads were in like condition. A Xew otm exchange says : " The fa tuous fools of the Djmocratic headquart ers have succeeded ia securing aa indict ment against Labor Commissioner Deck, but the Peck report has not been sup presisd." L:ke truth crush el to earth it has ris.-n agiin, to worry the Democratic "stumpers'' and show the insecurity o! their wabbling platform. The Democrats are frantically eudeav oring to crawfish on the taritl plank they d pt el at Chicago. Bat all the same, the platform calls Protection a '"fraud" anl declares it "unconstitutional." These declarations were made in cold blood, af ter a much less radical plank had been debate 1 and rvjecteJ, and wriggle as they may. Democratic orators aa 1 editors caai B jt get away from theru. Tiie dread with which the free trade declaration of the IVuiocratic platform is viewed by the wise heals of that pirty is seen ia the diligent crf irts being male by many Dnn ktimc n-.w;ior U per vert this u'.teranei intj a i.i derate pro tective tariff plank, li is bo such thing. It declare a protective tariff any tarifl that yields incidental protection a fraud and unconstitutional. Thk Louisiana Ball-Du2?rs who hang ed a negro few weeks ago on the charge that he murdered a judge, committed a fearful mistake. It now appears that they hanged the w rong man, and the man who committed the crime has con fessed. Bat there will be no regrets over the mistake. The life of a negro is so little valued in Louisiana that the men whi hanged this poor fellow in mistake w ill regard their blunder as a joke. Under the McKinley law IW.OOO work men in New York were paid, in one year, some fi.OW.OO mare in wages than they Lad beea paid the previous year. In the same year the miauftcturers of New York, coder the McKinley law, manufactured more articles by over $32, W.OOD worth than they did the previous year. This is not II publicaa talk. It is Democratic testimony, taken from there port of Labor Ginmiioner Peck, a Democrat appointed by a Democratic Governor. And for telling these big items of truth the Democrats want to put I'dck in ja'iL They cannot t oppress him, but they can persecute Liu. The following card from the Hon. jas. G Elaine, who is still at Bar Harbor, ap peared in the Kennebec, (Me.) wrW.- ' It has been stated by many journals that I did not vote at the last elation. Mr voting place is Augusta. It would have taken three d3js time ?nd 2o0 miles of travel to go there, register and vota. Instead of doing that, Democrat ic friend 'paired ofT with me, and I thus saved my vote and a good deal of time, too." Tiieee is a mistaken idea in the mind? of some that st ickera can be use d on the official ballot under the new law to paste over any name printed thereon. None of the officially printed r.arues can be erased, crossed out or pasted over. Stick ers can be nsed, but they can be legally placed only in the blank ppaces on the ballot left for that purpose, and not over another came. In these blank "pares the citizen may insert any name he pleas es, either by means of sticker, by writ ing or stamping. Whex the Democratic secseeionists in Congress during the Presidential cam paign of IStiO advocated their pet heresy, their Northern allies said: "Ob, they don't mean disunion." Now when Democratic freetraders lite Henry Watterson to use President Harrison's words "chal lenge American industries to a war of ex termination" the assertion similarly comes from, Clevelandeis "Oh, we only mean Tef jrru' and 'revision,' not aboli tion, of tariffs." Eut veteran Democratic voters exclaim : "Once bitten by leaaders. shy of their bark." Out West the Democrats are talking free trade bluntly. Richard Dalton, who narrowly missed a gubernatorial nomina tion by the IemoTats of Missouri, puts the sentiments of his party in this way: " Free trade is what we want and what wc must have. I am opposed tothe w hole taritT system from beginning to end. It took bio-id to remove.jslavery ; i mav take blood to remove this tariff."1 The wo-kicgiuen of the East should dis tinctly understand that Senator Vest meant w hat he said w hen he declared that Cleveland meant to wage a war of extermination against our protected in dustries. Theke is no question that the tariff plank adopted at Chicago was meant to be the s-i'iarest possible declaration against protection and in favor of free trade. It savR flatly that all protection is unconstitutional, and if that is so eve ry intelligent man must be against pro tection until the time, w hich is very far off, when the constitution can be altered. Xtir Yurk S'tn. There is no ; nest ion either about this being the platform of the Democratic par ty in this campaign. The San says that it was repudiated by the o-'i2 memlers who voted igainst it. ' So was Mr. Cleve land repudiated by the minority that vo ted against Lis nomination, but the ma jority made Lim the candidate just as the msjority made the platform for free trade. Mr. Cleveland has not repudiat ed it and it is safe to fay he w ill not. It agrees w ith his message of lS?, and should he repudiate the platform now it w ould le clear to all that he did it only to catch the votes of protectionists. Master Woiik MAS PowijEW.y, of the Knights ofl.aoor, has come out flat-footed again; the Democratic platform and candidates. From a long article publish ed in the "Journal of the Knights of La bor" w e extract the follow ing : The Democratic party has been charg ed w ith being the party of t lut'jcracy, of wealth and monopoly, but the Democrat ic party has the supreme gall t assume, with an air of patronizing ownership, the privilege of dictatin e just how work ir.gn.cn shall vote. Hc:aia:sto be the party of the poor man. I grant that it ought to be, for the poor have given it the strength to live long enough to see its candidate for the Presidency write against free silver at the dictation of Wall street, long enough to see its nation al convection frame a dishonest declara tion in favor of wildcat banks long enough tosee the principal actors on its boards 6iuirm and shift with everv wind to catch the votes of poor men. Yes, the Iemocra'ic party is the party of the poor man. and it he continues to vote that ticket he w ill never be anything else than a poor man. . No one disputes the right of the Demo cratic party to make blunders. It is right which that party has persistently exercised in every crisis in its career for the past thirty years, and there is every indication that it means to cling to its use with true Bourbon tenacity. The Dem ocracy blundered in upholding slavery, ia declaring the war for the preservation of the Union a failure, in opposing the Homestead act, in opposing the Resump tion act, in fighting the American navy, and in trying to pass through the Fifty secend Congres-two of the most reciless measures ever framed for the debasement of Ihf National currency. It blundered w hen it nominated Grover Cleveland at Chicago; it blundered when it attacked our national banking system and advo cated a return to the crazy "wildcat" bank system, and it blundered fatally w hen it went back to the Confederate constitution for its plank declaring all protection to American industry uncon stitutional. The speech male by Governor McKin ley Saturday night, Sept. 1:5, stirred npour neighbor of the Ih injcraf to the extent of almost three columns of editorial railing. I U article in defense of a return to the old red-dog, wild-cat currency, i3 a "cork er," and a fair spe-eim?a ot its absurd views oa National topics. Says the lK m-icr.il: " Take for instance oar own county. We have threecf the best banks in the State that are private bank ing institutions S. Philson it Co, of Ber lin, the oldest bank in the county; ihe Citizens' Bank and the Farmers' Bank, both of Meyersdale, and w here is the bus iness man who does not know tb.it they are as safe for depositors and conducted as well and successfully as any national back in the country." Now, while we do not anl will not dispute the perfect solvency of the-sj in stitutions, an 1 assent to their perfect safety for debitors, suppose they were to commence issuing currency ? It would be perfectly good in this community where they are known. How would it be in Iowa, Wisconsin, or even in por tions of our own State, where they are personally unknown? A demand woa'd at once be male for a discouut, to cover the risk and ventures of taking a note on an enknown private bank, and the rate of discount in each State where their notes would be offered would be regulat ed by the demands of the brokers and shavers. It is a mere ridiculous begging of the question to . assert thit because these banks are safe depositories that therefore their notes would circulate at par, where their slvency is unknown. There are plenty of farmers in this coun ty w hose notes are "good as gold" in th is community, but would not be touched abroad, at least until a rigid scrutiny of their solvency hal first baen mads. What mau of mature yean does not remember the days of wild cat banking w hen he had no security that, if he went to bed w ith a bir-k note in his pocket he would aake in the morning and find it worthless. When he had to carry a copy of "B'u knell's Bank Note Reporter" and hunt op the discowot on every note offer ed him, and w ben, if he IraveleJ, he had to submit to a discount on his money, in each state he visited? And who does not know, that a cote of any National Bank is good from MaiDe to California, and that were the bank to break its notes at e trfectly rod, and will be re deemed, tent for tut, dollar for dollar, at the National Treamry, and further more depositors are amply protected by a rigid examination of every bank by a government official. Of all the damnable heresies incorpora ted in the Democratic platform, the prop osition to repeal the 10 per cent, tax on Fie and private bnr.ksand permit them to issue currency is the most pernicious and most dangerous to the people, as i t would let loose throughout the country a maps of worthless currency w hereby the cost of living would be largely increased and the w ag-.-s of laloo r would be greatly reduced. As was well said by Major McKinley : " The money of this country should be as national as its flag. It should be as sound as the government itself, and that is the character of the money we have to-day, and which we mein to miintiin. If Congress should happen to be Demo cratic, then I want Benjamin Harrison to be President. He believes in sound money, and will veto any Democratic bill to corrupt and debase the currency of ths United States." "Why I Am a Republican." From the Nw York Pre. I am a Republican, first of all, because I brieve in "the political principles of the Re pubhao party. Foremost among these ia protection to American industry. Just now this is the leading national issue. It is forc ed to the front by a savage and persistent attack that is made against the protective Evstern partly in the interests of foreign manufacturers, partly under the influence of a coterie of free trade theorizers who know a gK)d deal about books, but nothing at all abut business, and partly in accordance with the general Democratic idea of opposing whatever the Republican party favors. I believe in this ystem because it is wi!e in principle and benefioent in practice. It was endorsed by ieorge Wasbinston. It was sanctioned by John Adams and Henry Clay and Daniel Webster and a host of the great est and best men of the country. History shows that when there has been a protective tariff the country has prospered, and w hen there has been little or no tariff protection there has been little or no projrity. Protec tion has given prol'.iable investment to capital ana steady employment to labor a rates of wages double those that are paid for the same work ia free trade F.nglar.d or that could be paid here if antiprotection Demo crats and doctrinaires bad their way. And at the same time it has, by enormously increasing the borne supply and the borne demand, steadily reduced the price of almost every protected product, as The Frev has shown beyond dispute in its series of "Tariff Pictures." Protection has enabled the United Suites to pay its national debt a, an averse rale for the past twenty-five years of $174,- ia) a day, presenting m this respect a s-gtit whi. h the world has never before seen. Within the past year, under the operations of the McKinley law, which its enemies prophesied one year ao would raise the prices of the necessaries of life and strangle trade, there has been m. re domestic trade, more exports of American goods abroad, and actually more imports ol foreign goods, reck oned by value, than ia any twelve months before since our national existence began MeanwLile one dollar has bought more of the necessaries of life than ever before, and the people, rich or poor, have had more dollars to buy with. I am a Republican be cause I am a protectionist, and I im a protectionist because I am aa American. Another principle of the Republican party is honest money. It ia that every "dollar" shall be worth 100 cents. It is, as President Harrison has said, that every dollar issued by the government shall be worth exactly as much as every other dollar issued by the government. It is opposed to the free and unlimited coinage of "dollars'' that were worth 80 cents yesterday, ore worth T5 cents to-day, may be worth 70 cents, less or more, to-morrow, but never have been and, unless present conditions of the mining industry are reversed, never can be worth 100 cents. The Democratic P81 on the other hand, with a few honorable exceptions, stand, committed to a debased silver coinage to-day iust as it stood for irrcdeerble and depreciated greenback currency a lew years ago, just as it was responsible for the wreck aud ruin caused by the wildcat banks, the shinplaster'' money before the war. I am a Republican because I am an honest man in my political as in my private conduct aud I know that lowering the monetary standard means robbery and especially rob bery of those who can least afford to be rob bed, the poor and the wages earner. The Republican party stands for honest elections. In the national platforms of the party this principle finds a conspicuous place It is the Republican party that, for the most part, has secured the adoption ia many States of the Australian, or reformed, ballot, and it is the Democratic party that has hindered its adoption, as witness the repeat ed vetoes of Governor Hill and the fact that the solid South is arrayed against ballot reform. I am a Republican because I believe in unbought and uubullied suffrage. The Republican party is the friend of the soldier. It believes that justice, not to speak of generosity, demands that the men who imperiled thtir lives to rave our country requires the redeemed nation to care for its deliverers and for their loved ones, with the open palm of gratitude and not with the clinched fist of parsimony. I ara a Re publican because I aai a patriot. The Republican jarty stands for the school and the home. From that party have com the most liberal appropriations, the most effective laws on behalf of free public educa tion. Kroai that party bare come practically the only laws that exist to-day designed to restrict to tra:Ho ia intoxicating drinks, or by other means to limit the terrible evils of intemperance. Per contra, wherever a poliiical party joins with the enemies of the public school to pet the votes of ignorance cr supprstition, as in Wisconsin and Illinois, it is a! ways the Democratic, never the Republi can party. Wherever a political party is in league wiih the ars,ins of society, with teeners of crog shops anl gambling dens ai.d brothels and receivers of stolen goods, levyicg pecuniary tribute for police "pro tection,"' as in the league between Tammany Ha'.l and the law breakers of Xew York, it is always the D.-m'jcra'ic, nevertae Republi can piry. Its-iu'j I b.'lievs in Uw, in ti!ignce an 1 decency I am a Republican. I hsvesail I am a Rip'i'ilican, firjt of all because I be!iev in the poiitcd principles of the Republican psrty and I have cited thex: Protection to American industry, honest money bonest elections, jasiice to Teterans, schools and public morals. Now I say, in the s?cin 1 plai?, that I am a Republican b?eaae the pis', of my pir.y is one of wV.ca I a n proil. Tait wo ill not alone be a su:fi aeot retsoa, bit taken together with toepirty' pre;at attilnJ; oa living q leitioas it mi'cs auaraoea doably sure. There is bat one lamp," si! J rat rick Henry, "by which my feet are guide!, and that is the lamp of erparlencj." " His tory is philosophy teaching by etijjp'e." said Dijnysius of Halicaruaijas, aud this saying has passed current for ages as one of the coicel ingots of human wisdom. History teaches me that the Democratic pir:y was the pirty of nulifieatioa, of hamsn slavery, of the suppression of free speech, of secession, of armel rebellion at the South, of Copperaealisai at the North, of nitional repudiation; that the Democratic party was opposrj to free homesteads tor the people out cf the public domain ; that it connived at the plundering of the naliocal trcaory and tie stealing of the country's arms and warships under Buchanan ; that it declared the war a fail are after Gettysburg had btea fought and won ; that au Jer Dem- Ili-hcct cf all in Lcavcninfj Tow I ABSOLUTELY PURE ocratic control the country went from bid to worse, from poverty to bankruptcy, and from bankruptcy to the verge of disruption, and that in all the thirty years ar.d more since Democratic guns opened fire on Fort Sumter the party, as a party, has never got control of any one State, or any one city, or any one branch of the federal government witboutt giving evidence that it has not changed its nature. Meanwhile the Republican party, from the day of its birth until now, has been the par ty of freedom, progress, union, honesty, hon or ; the party to w hich whatever is best in the young manhood of each generation grav itates. The Republican party freed the slave and baved the nation. It preserved the country's credit. It made a depreciated currency good as gold. It settled the Ala bama claims by an arbitration that com bined "peace with honor." It joined the Atlantic to the Pacific by lines of transcon tinental railway. It gavelo our government a formost place among the nations of the earth. Its men have been commensurate with its measure). Not now to allude to the liviug, except to say that they are worthy successors of the noble dead, the Republican party fa the party of Lincoln and Chase, Sew ard and Greely, Sumner and Thaddeus Ste vens, of Grant and Garfield. Because no intelligent citizen fan recount the history of the one party without pride, or of the other without shame, I am a Re publican and not a Democrat. A Dangerous Demagogue. From the X. Y. Mail aud Express. Slevecson, the copperhead, who bravely walked the bloody streets of Blooruingtou and prono-mced the war a failure, while Ben. Harrison was at the front with a gun ; Stevenson, as to whose treasonable record in war time a haifdozen of his own neighbors have made aiiidavit, ia now ia North Caro lina urging Alliance voters toconie back in to the democratic camp and avert another invasion from the North ! This cheep demagogue does well to keep away from the conservative North, where men in public life are estimated at their true worth and judged by their past. It was Stevenson who, in Congress, as late as lSiSl, opposed a measure authorizing the issue of bonds at 3 per cent, for refunding purposes, because, as he said : It is legislation in the same line and look ing to the same end with that which estab lished and fosters national banks; which exempts government bonds from taxation : which demonetized silver and seeks the destruction of the greenback currency. Alabama Election. Ia the Fusion Convention, held in Bi rming ham, Alabama, last week, the proofs of a number of frauds committed at the August electiou were brought forward by the Koib men. Here are a few of t iem : A delegate from Selina rose to tell how, late in tbe evening of election day, their ticket holders were attacked at a given signal bv a dczea men with drawn revolvers their tables overturn, d and part of their rocords stolen. They retained a record of over men who bail voted f.-r Kolb at that polling place alone, yet he was counted less than o votes in the city. The returns from Wilcox county were held back for a week, and then returned 4 -o majority for Jones. The evidence of ailidaviis and delegates was that there were not over 3,' votes cast in the county, and that Kolb had a majority of tbem. Lowndes county was counted as giving Jones l.fiVO majoiity. Captain Kolb picked up an armful of individual voters in that county to the cumberof i;,') more than had been counted fur him, certifying that they had voted for hira and had seen thtir votes go into the ballot boxes. In this county also when a contest was begun, the ballot boxes and tally sheets were mysteriously ttolen from the Court house. This had been done by the organized Democracy of Alabama. Is there any wonder there is a revolt ia Alabama, The end is sure to come ; it may not come this year, but it is sure to come in the near future. Not A Bone Found. F:niu"B(iH. Pa., Sept. 22 Not a bone ran be found of one of the postal clerks, the express messenger or two women, in the ruins of the passenger train smashed up by the collision at Shreve, Oliio, on the Fort Wayne road. The flames had done their work too well. Ia the mail there were burn ed about $s,,,iii in bills. The express was all burned, ex.ept thir'.y-six silver brick , worth 7o,0"", which were recovered from ihe fire in baite. About six'y pieces of baggage were destrcyed. Burled the Wrong Man. Pim it.ELrHM, Sept. i'l. Several days ago John beecher, aged 21 years, the son of a tiiilor on Second street, above Columbia ave nue, left his home without saying where he was going or whea he would return. He had done the same thing before, and his family did not feel uneasy about him. Itst Monday they read ia newspaers the description of a maa who bad beea found drowned in the Delaware, off Gloucester, on Sunday. This tallied so well with that of the missing son that the mother and daught er started for Gloucester to look at the body. On seeing the remains they felt sure they were those of John Beecher. The body was removed to the Beecher house and crape hung at the door. Yesterday funeral ser vices were hell and the relatives and friends followed the boJy to a ceaietery. The sal rites at the grave being conclulej the fami ly returned iiome. What was their surprise on reaching the house see to the son whose body they thought they hal left at the cemetery sitting alive aud well in the parlor. "I real ia the piperV said John, "that you had found my body, so I thought I hal better come home." Sickles on Harrison. W.imsrroK, Sept. 22. At a regimental re anion last night General Silkies said: "I know President Harrison. He was a brave soldier. Ben Harrison sent no s ibv.itute to the front. He went himself and did some effective fighting. I have personal knowledge "f his bravery on several occasions." These remarks, coming from the lips of a Democrat, caused a sensation. It is free'y predicted here that General Sickles, whom Governor Hill appointed Sheriff in place of the deponed Flack, will be found opposing Cleveland in November. General Sloeum was also present at the re union and showed by his conversation that he had not changed the opinion he express ed at the Chicago Convention wheu he said that Cleveland could not carry th soldier vote of New York.

Quay and the Administration Are on Good Terma-He Says Pattison Will Bern Senatorial Candidate Against Him. JacKROSviLLf. Fla- Sept. 20. United States Senator M. S. Quay passed through here yesterday on bis way North from St, Lucie. A local newspaper man bad the temerity to ask him : "Do you think any effort will be made to placate you before the November flection 7" "I don't know why there should be," re plied the Senator. "I don't know that there's any reason to suppose that I need placating. My relations with President Har rison have been cordial, as far as it was necessary for tbem to be. When I've want ed anything of him, I ve always gone straight to him for it, and I've generally got ten it. The newspapers have bad a good deal to say about our strained relations, and have charged open, personal hostility be tween us; but you know how that is your self," and the Senator looked tired. "So the existing relations between yon and the Harrison administration are not likely to be changed at all ia the next six weeks, are they T ' "Not that I know of. Pennsylvania's electoral vote is sure for Harrison, isn't it? I re nothing to ask of the administration and I don't kaow what I've got to give it, if it should a-k for anything from me." The talk drifting onto Pennsylvania poll tics, Senator Quay said tbat tbere was nothing new in the situation there that he bad been apprised of. ."Will you be a candidate before the new Legislature for reelection to the. Failed States Senate?" he was a. led. '"I can't say," was the reply. "I may and I may not. 1 sbould, of course, like to see a legislature elected favorable M my re elec tioii. But in that event, even, I might not become a candidate." "Are the legislative nominees on the Re publican ticket as a general thing favorable to you?'' ' I think so at least I know of nothing to the contrary. But the Mugwumps and Democrats have combined to defeat me. Their candidate for United States Senator in Pattison, the present Governor." "Do you think the combine will control the next legislature?" "I can't tell a thing about it. Politics are very uncertain especially Pennsylvania politics." . "Do you think any considerable number of Mugwumps would support Paltison, a Democrat, for the Senate ?" "Oa, he's a Mugwump himself a Mug wump Democrat. You know what that is." TheSeuator laughed heartily when told of the opinion recently advanced by sume Northeru newspapers that he was down here in Florida "juggling with the Fiori.ia elec toral vote." "I don't believe," he said, "that it can be juggled with. I guess you Democrats have got it nailed down pretty close to the floor, haven't you. No poliiiciau of either party has visited me in Florida. I have had no letters oa the sutject, aud our cottage is three miles from a telegraph othee. St. Lucie would be a hard place in which to juggle with aa electoral vote." Senator y-ay read aloud from a newspa per the headlines of a Washington fjxciul noting the return of Mrs. Harrison to the White House, "Poor woman," be said, "I am afraid she is goiug to die." There was much feeing in bis tone, and his sympathy for the President was manifestly a genuine one. Twenty Houses Struck. Lancaster, Pa., Sept. 20. The severest storm of the season passed over Lancaster county early this morning. For several hours rein feil in sheets, cccompanied by almost incessant thunder aud lightning aud heavy hail. Inthe city twenty houses were struck. The stack of a cotton mill and a tobacco warehouse were injured by ligbtning ahd a house was partially demoliahed. A number of burns iu the County were destroyed. Stricken With Paralysis. WasHi.vsToif, D. C, Sept. 2.".

Wash:.;to, S pt. 2V Although Dr. Gmd:ier, Mrs. Harrison's physician, reports to-uight that her condition is "unchanged," and the family attempt in every way to give the public a roseate view of her illness, there is really no hope of her recovery. Her phys ician realizes it, and the President realizes it The end is very near. Mrs. Hariisoa grows steadily weaker. She has taken no solid food for several weeks, and the sleep which she gets is not the life-giving sleep, but the stupor produced by exhaustion and opiates. A very prominent physician who was called in for coasullation by D. Gard ner, and who has can.-fully studied Mrs. Harrison's ca-e, said to your correspondent this evening that recovtry was impossible anddealhwas only a question of a short time. The abandonment of hope is due not alone to the ravages of tuberculosis, from which recovery has been known to take place, but to the wrecked condition of Mrs. Harrison's nervous system. The grip tuber culosis and nervous prostration leave her cyslem completely shattered, anl her phy sician added she could not survive a ruoath longer at most. Hired to Murder. Nrw Orlkaks, Sept. 2-. Lsst night ex Judge J. C. Banman, of Kennerville, was ar rested in this city, charged with being acces sory to the attempted assassiuation of Judge Ling in Kennerville, La., last July.

HARRi.-Bcaa.Sept. 21. Many requests are being made for copies of the revised form ot the ofheial ballot and the specimen ballot to be nsed under the operations of the Baker reform law. An idea evidently prevai s among many persons who have not seen the revised form of ballots that stickers can be used on the ballot to paste over any came printed thereon. Tnis is wrong. None cf the otncially pri ntei names can be erased, crossed out or pasted over. Slickers may be nsed, but they can be legally placed only ia the blank spaces in the fourth column of tbe ballot left fur that purpose, and not over another name. In these black spices the voter may insert any name be pleases, either by means of a stick er, by writing, or by stamping. Struck Tw:c in th Sams Place. ecHiNr.-TiDY, X.
