OUTLINES - We are in receipt of an artistically compounded tract senrout by the Sound Money League of Philadel phia, the object of which is to show that the farmer of this country is a good deal better off than the farmer of a hundred years ago was, and that he is a long way ahead of the farmers of Mexico, India. Egypt and other outlying districts. The farmer who gets hold of this nice little book and doubts that he ought to be happy after looking at the pictures which are gotten up with such- lavish art, will be quite unreasonable. : Senator Sherman told a newspaper man in New York the other day that he7-believed Mr. McKinley will be nominated at St. Louis and "of course elected." Mr. Sherman once or twice believed ; that he would be nominated, thought he had the dead wood on the snap, but he didn't make the connection, and it may be the same with shisfrieod William, who seems to be in the swim now.

' 1 TO SETTLE ONE STATE. , The difference of opinion as to whether Alabama i3 a 'sound money" or silver Scate will be settled the 11th of this month, - when every .county in the State will hold its convention to elect delegates no the' State con vention. The question at issue there is over the choice ot a candidate for Gov ernor. Johnson is"the silver candidate for Governor and Clarke the "sound money" man. - Both sides are claiming the election. Governor Oates is the gold standard candidate for United States Senator. The politicians are hav ing; it hot and heavy. Several cf the Congrcsimen have gone to Alabama to mix in the contest, among them Repre sentative Bankhead, who is spoken of as the silver candidate for the Senate in opposition to Oates. Alabama is the only Southern State, unless it is Louisiana, in which there is any doubt of the silver men winning in the election of delegates to Chicago. IS IT CARLISLE ?

A Sound Money Delegation Instructed for Him Exseoted to Go From Kentucky, j Washington Star. J Information came to a representative of the Star to-day from a most trust worthy source that within a very short time maybe within a few days the an nouncement of Mr. Carlisle as a candi date for the Presidency will be made. The manner of it is yet to be deter mined. Mr. Carlisle has been urged to formally reply to some one of the cu merous requests by letter he has re ceived to permit the use of his name. Again.it has been suggested that the announcement be made through the medium of an interview with Senator Lindsiy, who is'the Secretary's warm personal friend and supporter, , But in one form or the other it is said to be certain that the announcement is soon to be made. SOUND MONEY DELEGATES EXPECTED; Mr. Carlisle's supporters among the Kentucky Democrats talk in. the most confident strain respecting the action to be taken by the Kentucky State Conven tion which will meet to send delegates to Chicago. They assert without quali fication that the sound money men will control it, and not only instruct for Mr. Carlisle for President, but indorse the administration out and out. They de clare themselves to be absolutely assured of this, and some of them go to the ex tent of predicting that Mr. Blackburn will not appear on the scene. Something very encouraging to the Carlisle men is that both Senators Bronston and uobel, who figured so prominently in the legis lative tight as Mr. Blackburn's manageis, have recently declared for Mr. Carlisle for President, and Senator Bronston wishes to go as a delegate-at-large to Chicago to work in the Secretary's be half. ;- ' Vicm Bast to West.
