A candidate,- in order to be popular, must also be able to remember and recognize peoples' names and faces, and- yet Mr. Harrison cannot do this. In thtf name of common sense then how can he expect to be elected? Kow this weakness of his is not a democratic campaign lie, but is a statement made in' the sketch of his iiit published in the Kaleigh Signal, be leading republican paper in this State, as will be seen from the fol lowing extract which we copy tliere fioua : "One of his characteristics is a pe CXtliir one for a public man. H does not care to shake hands, and he has such a poor memory for names and faees that it is said that promi nent men in his own State have been introduced to him three times in one day". On election day the people may lave such "a poor maniory" that they ill forget to vote for biin but Baneful, to those who do not wear the proper garment.

On the other sido is a mountain scene, where, in green pastures, grazing, are well-developed, full grown, remarka bly knowing-looking but meek lambs. with a shepherd near by to guide them on to pastures green, higher up the mountain, at the base of which, in the valley, a vigorous fight is progressing and a large mastiff has a good "Holt" on a small fice, who is doomed already, and quite willing to give up me ugnt.- E. J. R. Balch, a young white man, twenty-two years old, died at Fair neld, S. C, last Saturday, from hy drophobia resulting from a bite of a cat nine mouths ago. A big bet was recorded in New York the other day. It was two to one on Cleveland, $20,000 that he vVvuld- Lh eleeUid? i to inteifere. The strike, foilunately, was settled peaceably, but it was not through his mediation. Had his coun sels prevailed ther would have been bloodshed, or the v-o; nneii would have been compel! . accept any scale of wages the co. potations offer ed. This is the record, calmly and dis passionately stated. The Star has not exaggerated or extenuated it in a single particular, and it refers its readers and Democrats geueraliy, as well as the supporters and admirers of General Harrison, to the files of the Indianapolis newspapers during the stiike, lor its verification. How the workiugmen of the country should regard such a candidate they themselves are best able to decide The record is before them. A Town Nearly Destroyed, Chicago, July 7. A destructive wind storm struck the town of Ed wardsburg. Indiana, about II oYioek last nigh!, creating sad havoe through out the village. The town consists of about seven hundred inhabitants, aud contains between 250 and 300 buildings. It is located on the Grand Truuk railway, 113 miles from Chi cago, on the shores of Diamond Lake. The wind struck the village with ter rific force, overturning and carrying away mauy of the houses. There is not a business house iu the place that is not damaged to more or less an extent, and the town is abnofit a com plete wreck, A large and handsome hotel, that had just been completed, and had not yet been furnished, was moved about fifteen feet from its foun datiouy and was completely wrecked. Several dwelling houses were unroof ed, and a number of barns destroyed, leaving horses and cattle unhurt. No one was injured as far as known. The little lake was turned into a ver itable sea and the pleasure boats that were upon it were lifted bodily out of the water and thrown up high and dry on land. David Clark and his wife hanged themselves in a corn crib near Sand wich, Ind. They left k paper signed by each, saving they died for each otner. Clark was 30 years old and had been married two years. Tfee democrats of Wilmington had a grand ratification meeting on last Monday night, when eloquent speech es were made by Stedman, Fowle, Waddell and other distinguished speakers.

Naiiu aiiy the trend of his dis course was tariliward. Nothing else would have nit I ihe expectations ol the assembled thousands. The force oi his logic captivated them no less than his winsome manner and his in fectious enthusiasm. I think he must have feit a very proud man when he ioi't the rostrum. His speech has been telegraphed broadcast. If you have not already pasted it in your cam paign hat, you ought to. a series of what the chairman call ed "short talks," followed. Congress man McCreary, of Kentucky, led off, followed by Congressmau Hooker of Mississippi, Shivejy of Indiana, Ford of Michigau and Sunset Cox of New York. The last speaker was Govei uor Biggs of Delaware... President Cleveland sent his word of cheer with regrets aL hi inability to be present So did Governor Hill and a hundred others. New Yorkers heard another great Democratic speech in the evening.
