THE MASSACHUSETTS CANVASS.
Congressman Grape Confident that General
Butler VIII Be Defeated.

Butler VIII Be Defeated.
Washington Special
Ex-Congressman Grape, of Massach usetts,
is in town. In answer to a question, this
evening, as to the probable result of the
campaign in that State, he said: II have no
doubt of Robinsons election. Massachusetts,
is stirred up as she never has been before for
State election. We shall cast the largest
vote ever thrown by several thousands.
There are two reasons why the Republicans
will win. The first is. that many thousand
Republicans who stayed at home last year
will come out in November 1t is hard to
tell how many they will number but more
than enough to wipe ont Buffers majority.
You see last fall some of our people
were dsaffected for various reasons,
but since the day of the Republican
State convention it has been evident that
every section of the party is solid for Robin
son. He has been on the stump ever since
the canvass begun and makes friends in each
place where he speaks The Republican
committee is working hard, and We shall
poll the full party vote in every county.
"Ancther reason for confidence is that
large number of old-line Democrats will cut
Buffers name from their tickets. They
voted for him last year, and would do it
again if State issues only were at stake, but
they are afraid that his election may make
him prominent candidate for the presi-
dency. They hate him too much to allow
that He can be borne by them as Gov
ernor, but they have no intention of putting
him to the front in National affairs. To
prevent that they will retire him this year"
What will be the result if he is de-
feated?'
He will be politically dead. 1t is life
and death struggle with him, but Robinson
will be the next Governor of the State"

The Late CInrence Cnmhack.

The funeral of the late Clarence Cumback,
youngest son of Hon. Will Cumback, af-
forded the occasion for a universal demon
Stration of esteem on the part OF the people
of Greensburg and other places who knew
the noble character and bright promise of the
young man. Eight students of Asbury
acted as pall-bearers, and the faculty was
represented by President Martin and Pro-
fessors Ridpath and John. Rev. J. G.
Chaffee delivered beautiful and touching
address, in which he reviewed the life and
last sickness of the beloved dead, showing
that he met death calmly, saying TO his
mother: 81 have never seen the Lord Jesus
Christ, and l want to go now, when l know
am ready" His last intelligent act was to
repeat the Twentythird Psalm. DR.. John
and Professor Ridpath followed in briefer
remarks abiding more directly to Clarence's
college life and work. The class of SO, of
which he was member, adopted the follow
ing resolution:
Resolved, That we, as class, deeply feel our
loss, having found IN him a genial companion, a
talented mind, q warm and lasting friend,
classmate brave enough to be true, and true
enough to adhere always TO the right, one who
has always shown himself worthy the profound
est respect and admiration"
Among the many letters of coincidence re-
ceived by Mr.. and Mrs Cumback is the fol-
lowing, from the faculty of Asbury Univers-
ity:
GREENCAsTLE Ind, Oct. 16, 1888.
Hon. Will Cumback, LII. d.:
Dear BroIheF-Ata meeting of the faculty, held
this afternoon, L was directed by unanimous
vote TO convey to you and your family the pro-
found sympathy auG sincere coincidence of the
entire faculty with you In your present great be
reaveDlent. Every member of the faculty held
your noble son Clarence in the highest esteem.
lie was successful in his studies and always re-
speetful and pleasant in his department
We have good reason to feel assured that his
character was firmly established upon the prn-
ciples OF the gospel, and that by his talent ami
his worth bright future was before him In this
life.
We rejoice with you in che hope that his fac
ultles and powers enjoy more rand and COM
plete development in his immortal life.
Very cordially, H. A. GOBTN,
Secretary of the Faculty.
Clarence Cumback was a young man OF
rare character and promise, and his death is
a serious loss to the community and State
as well as a crushing blow to the family.
