BERNARD. - WILMINGTON, N. C. Sunday Morning, July 26, 1891 A HOT FIGHT. The general Opinion is that the coming campaign in Ohio will be one of the hottest ever waged in that State, for the fight is not only for the Governorship and the Legis lature but for a United States Senator (a very important thing in view of the small Republican majority in the Senate) but tor the prestige the victory will give the winning candi date for the Governorship and his party in the Presidential contest of next year. i There is Presidential timber in both Campbell and McKinley, either of whom in the event of victory will be brought prominently to the front in the list of Presidential possibilities. -Should the Democrats carry the State on their tariff for revenue only, free silver coinage, graded income rtax platform, by a fair majority, I Gov. Campbell will at once become r 'a conspicuous figure, and would, in all probability, become the favorite candidate of the Western Democracy, but even if Cleveland should still remain in favor, in the event of a contest between him and Gov. Hill, Campbell would loom up as the com promise candidate. So with McKinley if he should win. He would at once become the favorite of the Western Republicans and in the event of a contest be tween Harrison and Blane, he would i loom up as a compromise candidate of large proportions. They are i both men of recognized ability of irre proachable character and command i universal respect not only in their own ! but in the v opposition party. They are both in the prime of life, full of ambition, and they will, make this i fight for all it is worth because not only the question of individual en dorsement is iavolved but of future i political honors. I Governor Campbell is backed by j a party that any man ought to be ! proud to lead for the Democracy j of Ohio has always been brave i and outspoken, sometimes, per 1 haps, as a matter of policy, too much so. Even in the impassioned days f of the war they were so, when being j so incurred the accusation of being l! disloyaly But in the face of this they wore then butternut clothes, defiant ly wore their copperhead badges talked" Democracy like men who be lieved In it, nominated Vallandigham for Governor after he hadJbeen ban ished to the Dry Tortugas, from which he escaped, ran the blockade and returned to Ohio, and if it hadn't been for the soldiefvote would have elected him. JThat is the kind of stuff out of which the Democracy of Ohio is made. They never were much given to policy , when the question of principle was involved, and they would rather encounter de .feat at any time than court victory by truckling to policy based on error. V- , I ; There is some talk of dissatisfac tion in Hamilton county over the nomination of Campbell on account of the.firm stand he took' in rooting out the abuses which, prevailed in the board of public works, and there is some dissatisfaction over the adoption of the free coinage plank in the platform, but we do not be lieve that?either of these will lose the party enough votes to be worth counting. When the campaign warms up the sinkers will forget the sulks, throw off their coats, toss up their hats and shout as loud for Campbell, and the plat form as the most enthusiastic Campbell man. ' We never knew those Western Democrats to fail "to get together' when confronted by the foe, for they have so disciplined themselves that they forget their personal preferences in their j devo tion to principle and in their pride of party. J This is one of the things that gives the leaders of the party confidence in entering their political contests, and one of the things which now gives Gov. Campbell confidence j m carrying the State, and makes him sanguine of victory even without the vote of Hamilton county. I- In some respects the Democrats are m mucn Detter condition man the Republicans, although they can not count on so much money from the outside to operate the machine ry, but with the aggressive war they will wage, the Republicans ! on the defensive and the tariff issue at the front, the campaign will be a hot and an interesting one. HDTOR MENTION. A good many people have their doubles, and this fact sometimes gets innocent ones into a world of trou ble. There is a New York lawyer temporarily sojourning at the coun try seat of a friend in Pennsylvania, who bears such a striking resem blance to Marsh, the Philadelphia bank fugitive, that he couldn't walk out of the house without a half dozen amateur detectives laying! for him. There was a first-class sensa tion in Chicago the other day, caus ed by a Chicago sporting man see ing at the races a lady whom he mistook for his wife in company with a Milwaukee man, who was in Chicago on his bridal tour, and had taken his bride to see the races. The jealous Chicago man employed a de tective to follow them, which he did, to their hotel, where the Milwaukee man was confronted by the enraged Chicago denizen, who charged him with invading his domestic precincts, destroying his Home, and all that sort of thing, and it was not until the detective had been senti to the supposed invaded precincts and found the sporting man's wife, happily ignorant of all the rum pus that was going on about her, quietly attending to her- domestic duties, did the deluded Chicago man discover what a fool he made.of him self and tender his humble apologies. It seems now that Mr. Blaine Has a double, who looks strikingly like him, an invalid f rpm Boston j who has a cottage at Bar Harbor, and he, it is said, has furnishsd the ground for neatly all those sensational re ports that have gone out from Bar Harbor about Mr. Blaine's serious illness. Mr: Blaine will doubtless be glad to learn that he isn't really so sick after all, but that it is the other man who has been doubling on him. . In an interview a few days ago at Pittsburg, Pa., where he had gone to attend a banquet of the; Randall Club, Gov. Campbell spoke pretty freely .of the political situation in . Ohio. He feels confident of being elected, with or without the vote ot Hamilton county, by an increased majority over that of two years ago when he carried the State by 2,000; majority over Foraker. The disaf fection in Hamilton county has pretty much disappeared, except among the Germans, whd are slow to move, but who, the' Governor thinks, will come in all right; by the time the Democrats open their cam paign, which will be about the mid dle of September. He does' not ap prehend any injury frojtn the Third party, - the bulk of whose votes will come from the: Republi cans, the Democratic Alliance men showing no disposition itd break through the party lines. There is, however, one novel feature in the politics this year, which may some what mix the legislature, and make' the Senatorial fight later on interest ing and uncertain. In Republican countierlhe r Democrats have ' nomi nated Alliance men. In Democratic counties the Republicans have nom inated Alliance men, and in close counties both have nominated Alli ance men, from which it would seem that .Alliance men will prove con siderable of a factor in the next Legislature Although the Governor doe not agree fully with the free coinage declaration, thinking ?that free coinage' should be confined to silver produced from American mines, he believes it will prove a source of strength rather than of weakness to the party. The St. Louis Republic comments upon the disposition the negroes of the South manifest to flock to the cities ' and towns and take rough-and-tumble life there in pref erence to working upon the farms. This is a fact as the very large num ber of negroes, in sections where they are numerous showsl While many find permanent employment in the towns, and the ; industrious and reliable get along pretty well, very many of them, even if they want to work, can find employment but part of the :. time, ; and in the winter i season when they need it most can't find it all.1 The result is, of course, hard living, scanty fare and suffering which very frequaqy lead to larceny to procure food, fuel and clothes, and to the peniten tiary. The improvident habits of many, especially of the younger, are such that their earnings disappear as fast as they come, with no thought of the future, and with this comes frequently the unrestrained indul gence in the passion for stimulants and in other things which make the phvsical and moral wreck. While the negroes of the South are credit ed with having accumulated about $200,000,000 worth of property since the war nine tenths of this, at least, will be found to be in the rural dis tricts by the negroes who had the good sense to stay there and buckle down to the work of the farm. Commissioner Raum expects to add about 350,000 more names to the pension list before he gets through with it, when it will number about 900,000, making the annual cost of the pensions fully $200,000, 000., What outrageous plundering this pension business has become. In 1877 the pension ( disbursements amounted to $28,000,000, in 1880 to $57,000,000, in 1885 to $65,000,000, in 1890 they had reached the colos sal sum of $106,000,000. In the cur rent year they will reach about $156,000,000, and after that probably $200,000,000 will be required to meet the ' annual expenditures for some time to come. If the -Republicans' had gotten control of the next Con-' gress there is no-:telling how much they would have added to this for there were bills prepared and in the hands of the pension sharks which, if passed, would have called for at least $100,000,000 more, and it is doubtful whether they would have been satisfied then. CURRENT COMMENT. Some carping critic accuses Grover Cleveland of wearing an old- fashioned bat. A statesman can afford to be careless about his hat. His aim should be to keep its con tents from going out of style. Washington Star, Jnd.

Henri Murger, THE FAMOUS BULL-CALF CASE. After Fifteen Tears' Litigation the suit It The famous' MectfbbeniBedford bull-calf suit of Kentucky lias been decided, the verdict being for $7,000 in favor f of the Megibben heirs. The case has been in the courts fif teen years, and a full history in - de tail would make -.most interesting reading, j The beginning of the le gal squabble dates back to about the year 1874, when Thomas J. Me gibben of Harrison county and Edwin G. Bedford of Bourbon county became joint owners of a Tersey cow. This cow produced a calf that was considered very valua ble. At that time Jerseys were sell ing at fictitious values, and in March, 1876, Megibben bought Bedford's interest in the calf for $9,000 on warranty! to be a good breeder. When the bull reached matunty .it proved to be worthless, and Megib ben asked for the return of his money. Bedford declined to do this. Megibben in turn filed a petition in the Bourbon circuit court October 4, 1876j asking revision of the con tract, return of $9,000 and $12,000 damages. This petition was dis missed (Without prejudice at the October term of court. The same suit was then filed October 2, 1879, in the Bourbon court of common pleas. There were "hung" juries at this trial in court at the March term, 1877, and the special October term of the same year. A change of venue was grant ed on Megibben s motion, to Scott county,! March 16, 1878. There was no trial in bcott county, but a change of venue was granted on Bedford's motion,' to Woodford county, J uly 18, 1878. The case was finally tried before the June term of the Woodford court of common pleas in 1879. The trial la$ted for several days and ere ated intense interest throughout the State of Kentucky, the case having become famous by that time. At this trial a verdict for Megibben for $10,000 was rendered. A motion tor a new trial was overruled and the case was taken to the court of ap peals, where it lay for nearly twelve years, until November, 1890, when the court reversed the judgment on account of error in the instructions given by the Woodford court of com mon pleas. At the January term, 1891, of the Woodford court of common pleas Judge Jnhan ordered Megibben s ad ministrators to pay into court the money, with interest, which Bedford had paid Megibben under the erro neous judgment, and on June 8, 1891, Megibben s administrators paid to J. C Bailey, clerk of the court, $17,558, which is now on deposit awaiting the order of the courts. FROM KEY TO THRONE. How a Telegraph Operator Became King of 8egon. Galinanis Messenger. A sudden favorable turn of for tune does not; always alienate the lucky individual from his habitual occupations. This more or less wise saw is applicable to the case of the present King of Segon, who was put on the throne of ms black king dom j by Colonel Archinard, when his royal predecessor, Ahmadou. took to flight for his safety. Mademba, the present monarch, is a native of the country over which he at present rules, but was former ly controller of telegraphs at Sene gal. Before accepting his regal state he made it a condition that his name should continue to be inscribed -on tne list ot telegraph servitors. and that his situation of King should be considered as subservient to that of his original employment. Mademba must have learned, either by intuition or from acute ob servation, that the lot of a mon arch is less certain in these days than the position of an officer in the service of the "Postes et Tele graphs' and so preferred to keep in reserve what might one day prove to be a happy issue out of all his afflictions. He has, no doubt, constantly one eye on his throne and the other one of memory on the office of his for mer telegraphic exploits. Should the future bring about for Mademba that change which Is in the modern order of things, he may return to the j tick-tick of his former days, with the right to add to his title of prefe rence that of "Ex-King of Segon." politeness in telegrapn omces, al though once seriously complained of by M. Guy de Maupassant, is gen erally the rule, even with the ordi nary employes, but should Mademba 1 of Segon ever return to his Sene- galiari bureau his clients may expect to be treated in right royal fashion byja man who never lost sight of business, even when promoted to the honors of an African throne. POLITICAL POINTS. It is giving distinguished Re publican ' editors great uneasiness be cause Gov. Campbell fights shy of the silly silver plank in the Democratic plat form. - If the Protectionists in Ohio did not want a tariff issue they should not have nominated Mr. McKinley. Phil. Record, Dem. The Republican papers through out the country are talking about "Neal sulking his tent in Ohio" simply do not know Larry Neal, that is all. Mr. Neal is a true-blue Democrat of the old school, and he never yet has sulked in his tent or failed to. do his whole duty to his party. Chicago Mail, Dem. Ex-Gov.
