The Louisville Courier journal calls
Mr.. Blaine's attention to the possibilities
ofthe future, and argues that the time
may come when "Mainea and New Hamp-
shire will be combined INTO one state.
Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massa-
chusetts into n second, and Vermont be
attached as county to New York"
Thus will the Democrats punish New
England for being Republican.

The Nebraska cannibals in Jail at
Kearney are to be removed to a different
part of the State TO prevent attempts at
their rescue. Richards, young man
also in Jail there, and who confesses to
ak cold blooded murders, says he must
kill two more men before he can die easy
and has been put in cell by himself.
He appears to be sort of human tiger,
without conscience or remorse, and pos
sessed of a furious desire to kill some
body every month or two.

wonderful and unprecedented feat of
shooting $3.50 glass balls thrown into the

shot by Capt Bogardus without a miss,
and if his hand and arm had held out
he could evidently have shot 5000 with
out missing one. 1t is the greatest shoot
ing feat ever accomplished.

WASHINGTON LETTER
WASHINGTON, D. G., June 2.
Editor Democrat

Ssh~'AoNi ~ W uuiS ..
Editor Qemoerat
Though no formal decision to
that effect has been made, it seems
to BIO the general understanding
that the Democrats will now at-
tempt to pass the two approRria-
ton bills with clauses stating
specifically what the money ap-
propriated shall be used for, and
that none of it shall DO used for
the transportation Of troops to the
polls or for. their services at the
polls, and that none of It shall he
used for the payment Of superyIs-
ors and deputy marshals. It is
extremely doubtful if Mr., Hayes
would approve such bills. Some of
the stalwarts, however, say that no
can safely approve the Army bill,
and thpn, as cOmmapdSr-inrchisf
Of tho Army, disobey it, After
passing these bills it is further
understood Congress will adjourn,
To-day there will he offered a
bill providing for thorough survey
of the Mississippi River. There
will probably be little opposition.
Senator Edmunds or Mr.. Congsr
will object, of course, but the
country has fairly entered upon
the work Of improving that great
river, and will hardly look with
favor upon tho opposition ola few
dyspeptic people.
Republican, are doubtful wheth:
er tho nomination of "Charley"
Foster for Governor Of Ohio is a
strong or weak one. It's probably
a stronger one than Judge Taft's
would have been. But whether It
is or not, the duty Of the Demo-
Gratis is tho same. They must
nominate their strongest man.
They must elect the Governor and
control the Legislature. More de-
ponds upon it than upon elections
in any Of the other States. To do
this-to make sure of it--Senator
Thurman should be nominated,
His few enemies may say that sue
cess under him would compel his
nomination for the Presidency, and
his doubling friends may say that
defeat in Ohio would prevent such
nomination. But such considera.
tons should have little weight,
AL acknowledge that the dis
tinguisled Senator can secure more
'otes WAN any other man, and that
is what should govern,

A report was telegraplied from
here on Saturday that "Roh" In
gsrsoll had died. It was a mistake.
A brother Of his, Z, G, Ingrsoll,
formerly member of Congress from
Illinois, died, and hence The mis-

and friend Of Blaine still lives.
