wnteh the Chndren,s Feet.


The following advice from the New
York Evening Post is very important.
Let every mother remember it; Life
long discomfort and sudden death often
come to children through the inatten-
ton or carelessness Of the parents. A
child shonld never be allowed to go to
sleep with cold feet; the thing to be last
attended to is to see that the feet are dry
and warm. Neglect of this has often led
to a dangerous attack Of Group, diptheris
or a fatal sore throat. 3Alsays on COM
ing from school, on entering the house
from a visit or errand in rainy, muddy
or thawy weather, the child should re.
move its shoes, and the mother should
herself ascertain whether the stockings
are the least damp. If they are, they
should be taken of, the feet held before
the FIRE and rubbed with the hands till
perfectly dry, and another pair Of stock,
ipgs and another pair Of shoes put on.
The reserve shoes and stockings should
be kept where they are good and dry, &c
as to be ready for use on a miuate's 10.

NEW YORK, November 1.-The Herdtd

Louisiana it is at New Orleans one hun

In this city tonight the odds are one
hundred to eighty.

Director. General Goshorn has written
a letter deploring the iorlorn condition

Senator Jones, of Nevada, says that il

TO OUR OHIO DEMOCRATIC
FRIENDS.

1t has come to light that the Republi-
can managers, in their desperation, are
resorting to sll kinds of fraud to avert
their defeat. The Cincinnati Enquirer
of yesterday has special from Columbus,
in which is impaired the information that
one package containing six hundred Ger
man documents sent to the Morgan
county Democratic committee had been
captured. The HAYES folks send them
through the mails, and represent they are
from Democratic headquarters, and re-
quest their dissemination through the
county without delay. Being in Ger
man, this Radical litursture is apt to
escape detection. Democratic Commit
tee men should be on their guard ard
scrutinize carefully sll matter that comes
into their hands.

General sheridan to Take IN ediate

New Orleans.
Special Dispatch to the World.

WAsHINGToN, Octobeo 3l.-An imPor-
tant conference was held at the Execu-
tive Mansion to-day by the President,
Lieutensnt-General Sheridan, General
Sherman and Secretary of War Cam
eron. General Sherman was summoned
here BY telegraph, and arrived this
morning, and left this evening for Chica-
20. After the meeting at the White House,
another conference was held by General
Sherman and General Sheridan. Both
referred TO the situation of the bsyonet
rule IN the South, and Its aggressions in
the immediate future, the pretense OF dis
orders in Louisiana and Mississippi,
which is made by the Radicals in letters
and kilograms to Attorney-Genersl TAFT,
is the direct cause of Sheridsn's visit.
Those two states and Arkansas and Tex
as are in the department OF which he is
the military commander, with headqusr
ters at Chicago. The troops which have
been solicited by United States marshsls,
by virtue of the Taft order, have
to be forwarded, therefore, under
Sheridan's direction. 1t was found,
on looking over the location OF
the infantry and cavalry west OF the Mis-
sisslppi, that it would be somewhat
difficult task to get more than 2,OOo
troops into either State by Monday
next. Companies A and X, Sixteenth
Infantry, at Newport barracks, Ky.
companies A and Z, at Atlanta, Ga, and
company B, of the same regiment, at
Lebanon, KY, are the only forces ayalla-
BILE Immediately, but if the troops under
General Pope's command, at Lesven-
worth, Kan, can be transferred In time
they will undon btedly be sent to New
Orleans and Baton Rouge and Vicksburg.
In the meantime the force OF regular in
fsntry now in Louisiana is 10 be used at
once to sustain the deputy marshals In
their outrageous and Illegal intimlda-
ton of Democratic voters IN the
arrests they have made aud
threaten in large numbers In New Or
leans. 1t is not improbable that Sheri-
dan will arrive in the latter city on
Monday evening next 10 take command
in person. 1t is the opinion of the Presl-
dent that he ought to go there at once,
but Sheridan is loath TO run the risk OF
disgracing himself in that city. 1t is
optional with him after his return to
Chicago tomorrow night. 1t is well to
notice that the promise made in the tell
tale letter published In Mondays World,
that the Republicans had made arrange
ments to carry South Carolina and Lousi-
ana is verified already fully. Those two
States and Mississippi are to be carried
for Hayes and Wheeler at the point OF
the bsyonet, if enough bayonets can be
had in time to do it.

THERE are but three more working
days for the people-three days that
ought to be improved to the utmost by
those who desire relief from Grantism
and all its attendant evils. The most
cheering reports reach US from
all parts Of the country, and
there is no reason TO doubt
the success of the Democratic National
ticket. For once the people are showing
themselves stronger than the large and
corrupt army of Federal Office. holders.
1t is q struggle for freedom from a
plundering horde, and the people will
win. 1t remains now to do the
closing work of the great fight;
to bring IN every reserve;
TO build up overwhelming msjorlties,
and to see that the Congressional tickets
are carried triumphantly through.
Democrats of West Virginia, there is
work to be done henceforth, which
speeches and psrsdes will not accom-
plish. Every voter must be on deck
ready for action. 1t is not only essential
that we win, but that we win by en-
phstic majorities.
There must be no trading-no scratch
ing, to spoil the glorious effect of grand
victory. No compromise must be made
with those who have disfrsnchised US in
the past and are stealing us poor to this
day.
Let every Democrat, every voter, who
desires honest government, peace in the
South and prosperity throughout the
land, stand faithfully by the whole DEM
ocratic ticket.

information, the temporary capital seat
Wheeling g-hurry up and let the out
side world know how large the Demo
cratic majority is in the State OF West
Virginia? Was the capital at Martins
burg, where it ought to be, and we hope
will be before great while, the exact

The official return from all the coun-
