that the Celtic vote almost entire will

by the Democratic party in this state

CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-Mons;gnor Capel,
the renowned Catholic pulpit orator
and lecturer, arrived from st. Louis
over the Chicago & Alton railroad
at ISIS p III. A delegation of five gentle
men representing the Union Catholic
Library association consisting of Messrs.
Thomas Brennan, schweisthal, Joseph
Mcdonald, Joseph Elder and w. Carroll, met
the reverend gentleman at Lemont, and &C
companied him to the city. Shortly before
arriving in the city the monsignor,
learning that he was to be tend
erel a reception in the hall of the
Union Catholic library, doomed his purple,
soutanne and stock, in order to save time,
and put on a long black overcoat reaching
to his ankles, and the broad-brimmed Roman
clerical hat, with the golden band and tassel
of an officer of the papal household. This
odd yet distinguished appearance caused no
little curiosity and speculation as to his
identity among the crowd in and about the
depot He was driven to the Grand Pacific,
and after supper to the Roman Catholic Lii
brary hall where he was given a welcome
and reception. He will lecture here on
Catholicism and Republicanisn."

The Case Against Carpenter Mt Lin.
coin Lacks Strength.

CHICAGO, Nov. Professor Wheeler has
sent q telegram to the authorities at Lincoln,
announcing that there is no blood on
the reins and other harness SUBJ
mitted to him for examination. He says he
has tested the matter microscopically, chem
ically and with the spectroscope. The recent
supposed clew in Richmond, Ind, where a
ring was reported to have been found with
Zura's name ON it is discredited by the asser-
ton of Mr. Burns that Zura had no such
ring
A correspondent telegraphs: While the evil
dence already introduced is calculated to
create suspicion that Mr.. Carpenter was con-
cerned in the death of the girl, it does not by
any means prove a single point against
him, and at the same time is
all of such nature as to
admit of. ready explanation. If
the explanations which Mr. Carpenter
claims he can make can be proven, it well de-
volve upon the authorities to procure some
thing more tangible than the fiimsy chain of
circumstances which have become so familiar
to the public if they wish to bring him
before court to answer for the
heinous crime with which he is charged.
If he is guilty, it can never be proven with
out better evidence than has yet been pro-
duced. If he is innocent, the bloody MUIR
derer who did the work has had ample time
to escape while the public have been fooling
time away on another man, and a grievous
wrong has been done him.

SEYMOUR ON POLITICS.
The sage NOrGtiO seems to THINK
Well of the "OId Ticket

CINCINNATI, Nov. 1.-1h3 Enquirer's New
York special has the following as part OF an
interview with Hon. HoratO Seymour on
current topics: "What would you think OF
the old ticket, as it is called, Mr.. Tilden and
Mr. Hendricks"
"As have said, am not in a position to
Judge on that subject, but l do hope man
of experience in public affairs may be
selected Very much is said about the Old
ticket, and objections are made to Mr.. I1lden
on account of his health 1t is alleged that
he is mfirm. Now l do not know that Mr..
Tilien either seeks or would accept the nomi-
nation, but l don't regard the health
of man so all-important in the
performance of the duties of
his Office as the fact that he is conversant
with public affairs and familiar with the
subjects be is likely to be called to act on. 1t
is a striking fact that the only two persons
whose lives were destroyed by the pressure of
presidential duties were two sturdy soldiers
Taylor and Harrison. A man conversant
with the requirement of his Office could
better administer the duties of the presi-
dental office from a sick-bed than could

from the men Of the hour, and l think that
our practice of nominating men for the pres
ideIcy who are merely men for the hour, and
net for the times, very hurtful one. 1t
forces men into the presidential chair
because they have popularity for the mo-
ment Of election, and not because they
are trained for the performance
of its great duties, and this leads
to great evils Unframed men must be di-
rected III their policy by outside influences,
and this lowers the character of our govern
ment."
Mr. Seymour, in answer to further ques-
tons, thought free trade was impossible in
this country now, but currency reform was
desirable: that Butler would be elected, that
women could get along without voting, and
had as much influence as was desirable now,
that Chinese immigration was hurtful to the
country, and that strikes were unwise-as to
true Justification he had nothing to say.

A Look Ahead.

Pioneer Press:
Nobody is Worrying about Hubbard
unless it be Bierman. Nobody liz the
possession of his sober scnses supposeS
that Hubbard is going to be- defeated,
or any one else upon the Republican
state ticket, for that matter. That is
not the question. The question is
wheather the Republican state OF
Minnesota shall contribute the usual
majority to the encouragement of the
national Republican party in the
presidential campaign Of next year.
That question it hehoovcs every Re
publican in the state 10 consider grave
ly, without any particular reference
to the estimabie gentlemen who are
running upon the state ticket. The
absolute defeat of Hubbard 10y Bier
man, indeed, would be Il business dis
aster, rs we'll as political reverse.
Hubbard Is 4 competent man of affair,
and careful, conscientious executive,
Jealous and generally judicious in the
performance Of his duties. Bierman
is a petty crossroads schemer, with
out training in affairs or experience
in public life, who if elected, would
probably administer his office through
commission Of hungry harpies OF
Democratic patronage brokers. This
calamity would he averted 10y Il Re
publican majority, however small.
Doubtless Il good many injo}ent and
short sighted Republicans excuse
their apathy with this reflection. The
blind sluggards who take this view of
the present canvass forget their high
est duty is loyal Republicans, and
the deepest Significance of party Wet
DRY. They lose sight of the great
natio al conflict Of next year, to
which the state elections in Novem-
Der are preliminary >kirmishe>. They
would sacrifice to local Incidence OF
Indifference the brucing moral effect
of rousing Republican luujovity in
the staunch and loyal Northwest, to
which the party must look for tie
bulk gifts strength next year. They
supiAr;y neglect the out posts Of
line OF defense whose very citadel
may be threatened within twelve
month. Republican loss anywhere
this year means a loss Of spirit and
confidence in the largest contest next
year. Republican gain anywhere
now means added strength all along
the line then. If there ever was an
election when Minnesota Republicans
could not afford TO be indolent and
indifferent, this is such an one.
With the strongest reasons for a good
Republican majority, the party stands
face to face with influences which,
aided by little neglect, may easily
reduce it to comparative insignif-

BUSINESS AND PLEASURE.
The fEandiness OF Having a Spare
Wife illustrated.

ErEAuLA, Ala, Nov. IA reunion with
special features of its own has taken place in
this county. Thirty-fve years ago John
Bantwell wooed and wed Miss Jane Camp
bell, hear Elamville. After few months
welded life the couple parted, owing to the
wife's jealousy of her husband. Mr.. Bantweu
took up his residence in Dale county, where
he married, became the father of a large
family, and accumulated a competency.
Mrs. Bantwell remained in her old home, and
after few years became the wife of q man
named johnson. All this took place with
out the preliminary of divorce. Recently
the second Mrs. Bantwell died, as did Mr..
johnson, thus leaving the original parties
single once more Bantweu became
greatly embarrassed and was in
danger of losing all his property
through claims of his creditors In this
emergency he went to his first wife, repre-
scented his situation and urged her to resume
their relations, which had never been legally
broken off, and thus, 10y taking advantage of
the laws protecting the wife in the home
stead, he could keep out of ruin. The lady
agreed 10 the proposition, and the couple are
now finishing the honeymoon SO rudely in.
