Judge Taylor Beattie chairman OF the late
bolting Louisiana republican convention, has
appointed full state central committee to

creates much comment among the regular re-

Ex-Gov B. Gratz Brown of Missouri, has an
nounced himself as candidate for the United
Senate Senate.
Gen. Hancock has finished his letter of ac-
ceptance, and viii probably delay its issue until
that of MIR. English is ready.
Senator-elect German expresses confidence
that the democrats will be able this fall to

Gen. Chambers, the candidate of the green

A paragraph has been going the rounds of the
