but they admit that it is completely eclipsed by
the monster demonstration tonight Although
but short time was allowed for preparation
the procession tonight was over a mile in length
containing nearly 1000 voters while 10000 peo-
pie crowded the streets, shouting for Blaine
The Richmond, Ind, glee club, sixty strong
was on hand; also large demonstration from
Covington. The farmers swarmed in, and the
ing manufacturing establishments were repre-
sented by wagons with specimens of their wares;
two steam roadwagons were in line, and the
the number of miscellaneous clubs was endless
No such political rally has been seen in western
Ohio since the Braugh campaign. The spacious
opera house would not hold half the audience
that sought to enter The splendid glee club of
Richmond rendered stirring campaign songs, and
Lee Yaryan, of the same city. then entertained
the audience with a speech full of convincing
logic, brilliant eloquence and pitiless denuncia-
ton of the Democracy, which was received with
storms of applause. If there is any reliance to
be placed in appearances, western Ohio is

promise on the franchise bill being reached be
tween the Conservatives and the Liberals is i'm

exists between the representation of the popula-

way for settlement The Marquis of Salisbury
and his Conservative colleague, the Duke OF
Richmond and Earl Cairns, are holding confer
ences at Gordon CASTLE the residence of the
Duke of Richmond, looking to the settlement of
the difficulty with the Liberals.
A draft of the redistribution bill, made by the
ministerial committee, will be submitted for con
sideration to the Cabinet council on the Dist
inst. The general provisions of the bill were
communicated TO Earl Salisbury and Lord North

OBITUARY,

Died, in this city, after a short i'll
ness, BEuLAH, daughter of John NJ.
Wright.
The deceased was in her thirteenth
year, and as she was a remarkable child
in some respects, : fitting notice is due
her memory. The writer's intimate &C
quaintance with the father and family
and relations of the deceased, and the
subject of this sketch, affords him some
knowledge Of the family. Beulah was
born in johnson county, Missouri, and
came to Dodge City with her grand
mother and youngest sister about three
years ago. Possessing an amiable and
companionable disposition Beulah en-
deared herself to her friends, compan-
ions and associates. Delicate health
was her misfortune, but she was always
pleasant in her sufferings, bearing her
affections without murmur Her lady
like department was the comment of
those who knew her we'll. Older peo-
pie could have cmulated her conduct be-
comingly. Peliteness and modesty were
her traits. Her mother died of the same
disease, about FIVE years ago, and Beu-
lab, with a younger sister, was left to
the care of her grandmother, who has
watched over these children with a
mother devotion and tenderness.
Beaulah' life was one of simplicity
and kindness. Her bodily Affections
seem to have been without anguish.
Her sickness and death was as pleasant
and simple as her life Knowing that
the other shore would soon be reached,
she called her father to her bed
side, and expressed her regrets that she
had not joined church, though she pro-
fessed the faith of the true christian.
On the afternoon previous to her death
she said the spirits of the angels were
lowering in her room. and remarked
that she was ready to join them in the
spirit world. As she lived a gentle,
kind, obedient child, and SO her death
was one of calmness and resignation.
1t would seem that the manner of her
life indicated the manner of her death.
Beulah was an angel on earth and she
will be an angel in the other world.
Her LIFE was worth living for the con-
ISOLATION of the death. Conscious Of
the sight of angels hours before, her
death must be a death-bed reflection
few people contemplate. Few people
live SO that on their death-beds they
see the light of heaven and the forms
of the angels there. There was no ter
ror in Beulah's death.
The funeral of the deceased took
place from the family residence Sunday
afternoon, the service being conducted
by Elder Collins.
