- BEN ZERCHER was an only son, and
his father owned one of the best farms
in Belmont County, West Virginia. The
years his health had declined, and ii
was supposed that he would speedily
he began to buy stock for the farm, and
made other preparations to take posses

genarian suddenly recovered from his
illness, and took to counting neigh

impatient heir, and he shot his father
dead.

4 Collapse at the That
CHASTITY Ratification

The history of politics in this section fails
to record another such CHASTITY and notifying
| fizzle, as the conspicuously advertised and
loudly proclaimed Qualification Meeting
with which the democracy opened their cam
paign at NOrombega Hall last evening. The
collapse was so complete and melancholy that
even political opponents almost felt shade
of pity for the leaders who had boosted of the
grand demonstration they were to have, and
who had to sit on the stage and witness the
worst failure ever known in any campaign in
this city.
The first attempt to rally the coalition
forces at the Plaisted Club meeting last Sat
urday night was utterly disastrous, only about
twenty-five persons being mustered in the
fed in Norombega.
After all the trumpeting, and all the ap-
peals to show what the Bangor democracy
could do. there was only beggarly array of
empty benches, lonesome scattering of a
few hundred, failure of either of the adver-
tsed speakers to appear, and the great, Han
cock-Plaisted ratification, petered out with
DR.. Jordan, A. Sanborn and Stephen Jen-
nings for its orators!
The rank and file were loud in their ex-
pressions of disgust at the plight to which in
competent and INSCRIPTIONS leadership has
brought their party, and many of them freely
acknowledge that the attempt to run a demo
cratic campaign with a Union soldier as a
mask at one end. and the forgers, perjurers
and tabulators of the State steal at the other,
can result in nothing but such a collapse as
attended its Inauguration last evening.

between the two cases is that the kenne-

Cameron got $1,000 without bill or
