cities to the Northern ports and
Liverpool. \ demand will at
once be made on the Northern
pool lines for d share of tho East

this is refused rates will be cut,
and the whole fabric Of carefully
devised pools will fall to the
ground. Even if the claims of
the new southern trunk line are
conceded, some new competing
line to the seabOard will doubtless
spring sup in six months. The
city that will be most benefited
by the new line is Louisville,
whose merchants are straining

Of the balk Of business between
the West and the South. In this
struggle they have the vigorous
competition Of Baltimore, Rich.

Peabody Fund.

Some years ago, u wealthy man
diedin England. who left a large
some of money to-. be invested,
the proceeds OF such investment
to be distributed in the former
slave States. for the promotion of
the education of the poor children
in those States. Bar1abas Sears is
the chairman of the Board of Di-
rectors of said Fund.
Free public schools in all the
Southern States have been assis
ted more OF less by this fund.
In this State Tlliboslaux, Baton

funds Of the generous Peabody.
The requirement exacted was,
that the people must continue
free schools for il sufficient mum
Der of months, to enable the Pea
body fund distribution to insure
nine or ten months sessions in

Last Fall Mi. Sears took upon
himself the privilege to NEEDLE in

threats that, unless d certain III
dividual was nominated for Su-
perintendent Of. Public Schools,
the Peabody Fund would be with

makes no difaraLce now. No

Col. Sanders pronounced this entire story IN

ITS particulars, "A LIE, and that had the
author of il lived in the days of Ananias and

denied that any election returns hadeyer been
received from Et. Union; that any were ever
manufactured or attempted TO be manufilc-

subStantiate his denial; avered he had never

The Republicans in this campaign had de-
sired to stand up and be counted, and had se-
lected him their candidate. Twice before
had he made the campaign and never yet had
asked n man for his vote. He would not do
so now. lt was for each elector to determine
his duty and to perform il with that eonsci-

Although Custer county is undoubtedly
Republican by a strong majority it is re-
markable fact that there Is no Republican
ticket in that county. Our people seem to
have been "hoodood" by the opposition. In
the first place a Peoples Convention was
called and the county was quite fully repres-
ented by delegates from nearly every part Of
the county. II nominated Paul Mccormick
for the Council, James III. Garlock and Jos.
w. Allen for the House, Thomas III. Irvine
for Sheriff and Assessor, aud a very good
ticket throughout, without apparent regard
TO political proclivities. The Republican
Central Committee then indorsed the Peo-
pies Ticket and held no Republican conven-
ders" and half "Maginnis." The Democrats
then tried TO have convention, but failed,
and so five Democrats met and put up new
ticket with James II. Hubbell for the Council,
James ii. Garlock and Curt. Harrington for
the House, and John w. Smith for Sheriff.
These tickets are all headed "Maginnis."
Then still another ticket, entitled the "Cus-
ter County Independent Reform Ticket"
was developed by some mysterious process
Of political evolution, indorsing Hubbell and
Garlock, but substituting j. j. Graham for
Curt. Harrington and A. p. Flanagan for
Sheriff. "Maginnis" will undoubtedly head
their ticket, If IL is, as it is understood to be,
the Diamond r reformers who are pushing
IL. Now, with three tickets In the field in a
Republican county, and the name Of the
Republican Candidate for Congress to be
placed on only half of one set of tickets,
and that mixed one, we think the Republi-
cans have conceded the enemy more adyan-
tages than was either wise or prudent, and
that It Is the worst mixed up political situa-
tion that has ever been known in the Terri
tory. y r at rgrE
