H From ' our' ' Eegclar CMmpondett ,., Secretary ChMh1 will go -to Kentucky and take t h - ftnfnp forCol.-Himfin 5 n l the Yvhble state ticket. Hp is ;- "too gciod h democrat to ,?onn term nee the fight which lias boon liiistakonly made upon , liolonel Harding because of n iianeial opinions which every body knew he held before he 'wan nominateil for Governor and which nr not: a. legit i mate issue in the State, on in- jiaign, any wayi fteoretary jC.i ilislt will have but one ob ject' in view in going into this campaign, and that will be to bring about party harmb ny ana ine flection or t n e state democratic ticket and a democratic leislat ure. He has stated in the most poi 'tive terms that he was not and would not become a can did 4 te for the Sena te before the legislature to be elected, . iior will he take any part ei ther for or against any can didate All he asks is that the pf.o tie keep the state in the democratic column and wnd a democrat to the Sen ,.uto, both of which will bo ea sy' if democrats will only stand together and f1sht the N'ommon enemy iiiNtead of 'each other. Mr. 'Benjamin .Harrison' goose is cooked, so far as Ins - being 'a presidential candi 'diteagoin id concerned. That 'Blas.j'UtUie opinion of ma ny tii the longest he-aded re: , publicans : in Washington, 'soiue of ; whom ' want Harri son nominated badly. Bosh 'Quay is the in an credited with blocking Mr. HarriHon's am bition. Had he lost his tight in Pennsylvania he would have ceased to be a factor in the national politics of his party, but by winning it he obtained virtually the power to east the sixty-four votes of Pennsylvania in the repub liean convention and a strong influence ovpf votes from oth er states. His opposition to Mr. Harrison was unavailing in '92, because Mr. Harrison ,ind the Minneapolis conven tion packed with Federal of fice holders, but it w II be cf fectnal m '90, si effectual that Mr. Hairison will have the good bense to get down in order to save himself from being knocked 'down. Quay's triumph in addition to forcing Mr. llarison out of the running hasgiven Tom Reed i boom for tho nomina tion. But as this boom has no better foundation t h a ti Quay's expression in favor of Heed se vein 1 mouths ago it would tiot be, advisable for Mr. Reed to lan too heavily n)on it. Ho had better trust the bicycle he had made to order; the strength of that has been tested. Quay hav hggot a copper riveted clinch On those sixty-four vot es will now proceed to dicker vvith those who want them, and if McKinley will make a better trade than Heed, or Allison Or Morton than either of the othft s it is Senatorial toga's to horse rovers that he can't get them. The probabilities nil point to Heed, however, simply because he is in a good position to offer a dick er' which' may l.irid t Quay the winning Hide',' which is where hp wants to , be. It is gf nerall.v admitte'I. that Mr. Ueed will hav(! the solid New Rnuland delegation .and a numb(-)' of scattering votes from Other states. If hejtm add to those iVunvlvania's sixty-fonr votes he will enter the convention with -more VDtes than any other' candi date, which would of itself at tract a "number ol unattach ed votes, perhaps enough to nominate him on the first or second ballot.' A majority nomina tes In ' the republican convention. Hon. Wm. II. Clapton, ot St. Louis, V. S. Attorney for the eastern district of Missou n, is m Washington. He. is credited with always keeping posted on democratic senti ment in his section. In the course of an interesting con versa I ionJie said: "The-prvs-ent agitation over silver will do the democratic party no harm in Missouri. The Stale will bp overwIicluiinjLily'demo era tic in 1890. There is con siderable talk out our way about the candidacy of Col. Wm. H. Morrison. I think that he has the call in Mis souri over any other demo crat; who has been .mention ed in 'connection with the presidency. Morrison's lon and honorable career, h i s unspotted personal charac ter, his conservatism, and his "straight1 'democracy' are points in. Ims favor not to be overlooked. . lie is available from every uta nd point, and he is popular 'througout the entire country.'' Although Ex Senator Han som has been reappointed Minister to Mexico, his first appointment, having been de cided illegal by. t he account ing officers of the Treasury, and is now, on Ids way back to Mexico, he will not be able to draw any salary, either for the time between his first oppointment ami the time that appointment was o(fi; I illy declared to be illegal or between this time and the date upon which his last ap pointment, shall be confirm- ed by the Senate, owing to lelyory little, as I have not hopn gal technic ili ties. It will re quire a special net of ('(ti gress to pay him for the time served under his first appoint ment, but only his-confirm i tion by the Senate is requir ed to enable him to draw his salary from the date of his last, appointment.

Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria. OBlTUARVt r Died at Jiisjiolne near Val le Cruris Aug. 29l h, 'bo, my brother, Ebenezar.Baird, a ged 34 .earK. 4 months and lGda.ys. ; On Nov, f, 1H82, he was u nited in marriage to Mary E. daughter of Lemuel and Ke sialr Wilson, -and to them were born six children, two sons and four daughters. ; Lasi spring he nipvedfrom North Eork of New Hivi r to this neighborhood; was taken sick while moving. He com plained of a severe pain in his face and jaw. (Jetting no re lief from domestic treat men t, he applied to u physician. At first the doctors ivere at a ioss to tell where the trouble was, bnt at last decided it wag a polypus, and therefore ad v:sod him t3 consult' a spec ialist. . On the 21st of last jane I started with him to' Rich mond, Vn. for treatment. We consulted the best medical skiP in the city, but received no eneonraa-piiient whatever. The physicians ther? exiled it sarcoma, and said that it was destroying thejnw bone, and that there was no possi bllity ot cure; that he c nld not live more than two or three months. True to the old udafto that " a drowning man will catch a straw' we went to Cincin natti, Ohio, to consult Dr. (irattigna. who had Jieen'rec ounriended'to Vjs'as a special ist in all cancer troubles, and as sarcoma, is a form of can cer, H-p had some hope that he might gK relief. The an swer was: "It is too late, not!) ing can be flo'ie for him, and heeaniiot live exceeding two or three months," and advis ed me to get him home as soon as possible. When the sad fact was made known to us that he could not live, it was n greater tri al than any through which I have ever had to pass. But wo talked freely over the mat tor, and submitted our case toUodnnd Hp gave us the strength to bear it. Of Iqother Loin's early re ligious experience I know but associated with him but little since his marriage, until last spring. Sinco that tim? I have been with him almost con stantlyas it was mr privi lege to care for him through all his sickness. About ten years ago he joined the Methodist church., and so far as I Know, ho liv ed a coi'sistant life all those years. The last three months of his life be certainly gave evidence of his acceptance with (iod.'Inthe hoars of his greatest suffering, iiota word of complaint ever escaped his lips; but he repeatedly used the expression "Blessed Jesus have mercy tai me," and of ten asked us nil to meet him in heaven. About lour weeks before his death he was relieved of a great deal of his suffering un der the treat ment of Dr. Biug gam, and we had some hope ol his recovery, but the dis ease was too faradvauced to be permanently eradicated, and while Dr. Bingham is se verely criticised try aome M' the course' he pursued, we will id way's feel gtateful to him ii.'V the temporary relief my ly other obtained through his treat ui'ent. On the evening in the P9th of Aug. about dark, he began blooding Tre. ly'nt the iiose, t Inch continued .until a few minutes before he died w!i!ch "as 1 1 :f5 that night. He was eoiisctous to the last, and a few n.inates before hedied he laid hisarnrsaioUnd the neck 'if his brother James and bid him farewell, afro vtook h i s wife and Stde.v, ids oldest boy by .the hand and bade them good by, and in less than fifteen minutes he qui etly passed nwav'.

Emporia, Kans., Aug Sen utor Peffor has written a let tor to 'J. ,D. llolden, of this city, in which he crimes out strongly in favor of currency based upon land values nlone.- He haft discarded silver and the sub-Treasury plan .and writes that lie believes the chief trouble with the coun try is interest and its twin evil, rent. He calls attention to the fact that the average rate of interest is 7 per cent., and statts that 'the net. aver age savirgs of the people for the past forty years has not been over 3 per cent. He adds: "I can sep no way out ol our troubles in the direction I have spoken of that will be safe, so easy of accomplish ment and so efficient lis to coin our land, Issue money based upon our Wealth, and abolish the business of issu ing money Incorporations." In an i-'tei view in Emporia Mr. I'effer said that h was glad to see the land money idea progressing in the face of what he called ''rabid niet allism.''
