TO RUN FOR GOVERNOR.
That's the Unusual Otter Hade to Campbell,
f Ohio,-
Cincinnati, O., June1 8. It is said
here to-day that the four Democratic
millionaires, 'Brice, McLean. Sorg and
Johnson, will assure ex-Gov. Camp
bell all his campaign expenses in his
gubernatorial race and an additional
cash bonus of $20,000 for time lost from
his law practice during the camnain.
Whet!
her or not he wins is a matter ;
of absolute indifference to his political
backers. They are after bigger game
than the Governor. It's the United
States Senatorship which they are in
hopes of capturing. Campbell's name
at the head of the ticket is expected to
be an element of strength in certain
close counties and senatorial districts.
It may help in those districts in elect
ing a member of the Legislature. In
that manner Campbell can make him
self useful and earn the monev which
has been offered for his services.
MILLIONS DOUBLED.
This Wedding Unites Two of the Richest
Families In America.
Lenox, Mass., June 0. Two of the
richest families in America were unit-.
ed to-day at noon," when, in the beau
tiful Triuty church, James Abercrom
bie Burden, Jr., and Miss Florence
Adele Sloane were married. The
most elaborate preparations had been
made for the event. About i00 guests
were under the care of Mr. and Mrs.
"William Douglass Sloane, who have
taken pains that ah those bidden to
the ceremony should be entertained
entirely by the father and mother of
the bride. Mrs, Anson Phelps Stokes
entertained fully 80 guests at her resi
dence, Shadowbrook.1, The church
was trimmed with white and green,
the colors of the Porcellain Club, the
most exclusive organization at Har
vard University, of which Mr. Burden
is a member.
50L1D FOR SILVER.
"Governor Thornton, of New flexico. Says the
People are Solid for Silver.
New York, June 10. (iov. Thorn
ton, of Xcw Mexico, is in the city. In
an interview he said: "The silver ques
tion will not down, but must be fought
out in the next presidential campaign.
In 'ew Mexico the demand lor free sil
ver is universal. Both parties are
united on it
(iov. Thornton said New Mexico
would apply next winter for admission
into the Union. New Mexico has a pop
ulation of lK),tH0, he said, and is the
third largest sheep raising State in
the country: It has heretofore been
customary lor their ranchmen to tend
their cattle to Nebraska and Kansas
to be fattened,. hut the system of drain
age has been devised in the Pecos -Valley
which will enable them to fatten
their cattle at home so that cattle there
that are now sold for a head may be
sold fors4" a head. There are a num
ber of gold mines that have been re
cently discovered and they will 'be
worked.
A Gooil Appetite,
Always accompanies good health, and
an absence of appetite is an indication
of something wrong. The los. of a
rational desire for food i- soon follow
ed bv lack of strength, for when the
supply of fuel is cut olf the lire burns
low. 'The system gets into a low tato,
and" is liable to severe attacks of dis
ease. The universal testimony given
bv those who have used Hood's Sar
saparilla, a to its great merits in re
storing and sharpening the appetite,
in promoting healthy action of the di
gestive organ-, and a p:irihVr of the
blood, constitutes the strongest rec
ommendation that em Ih urged for
anv medicine. Those who have never
used Hood's SarsapariKa should sure
ly do so this season. l-t

Raleigli, N. C. Ju::e S. The meet
ing held here in the interest of bi-uiet-allism
and to select delegates to the
Memphis bi-metallic convention is
causing something, of a political sensa
tion. It is the first time Democrats
and Populists have shown any signs
of co-operation in North Carolina. Ex
Chairman Smith, of the Democratic
State Executive committee offered the
resolutions which were adopted dc
nianding free and unlimited coinage of
siiver at a 10 to 1 ratio and appealing
to hieu of all political opinions to join
in the demand: declaring it an over
shadowing question and calling on all
to unite on a free silver coinage man
for president. Secretary of State Coke,
who was formerly chairman' of the
Democratic. State committee, declared
he was in full sympathy with the re
- solutions: Editor Aver of Senator
Marion Butler's Populist paper, ap
pealed to all silver men tc unite and
put parly prejudices entirely aside.
Ex State Chairmaii Wilson, of the
Populist party, also spoke in riipport
of the resolutions. Ex-Secretary Beck
with of the Democratic State com
mittee said he had worked for Cleve

again nor for any New England or
