Hon. Henry B. Anthony, Senator of the
United States from. Rhode Island, died at his
residence,in Providence, in that State, yes
terday afternoon, aged 60 years, months
and day. He was in more than his usual
health Monday, having spent several hous
in the Journal office, and manfesting his
usual cheerful good spirits when not OPP
pressed by the pain and weakness of bis
chronic disease. He passed q comfortable
night, and took break fast about ten o'clock
with good appetite. Shortly afterwards
he was observed to he growing pale, aud
was attacked by an uremic convulsion, from
which he did not recover. Mr.. Anthony
was born April /, 1915, at Coventry, r. l.
He was elected governor of Rhode Island

re. election. He was elected to the United
States Senate for the term beginning in

The RETURNS from the Vermont election
show light vote and small democratic
gains. Geo. w. Hooker, Vermont's repre-
sentative on the republican national COM
mittee. was defeated for member of Assem-
bly,. Chairman Jones admits that the re.
publican majority will not be over $4,000,
which is loss of 5000 as compared with
1880 The democrats estimate the ma ority
at 10000, but the belief is that it will prob
ably fall below that figure. Brattleboro',
which has gone democratic, has always
heretofore gone republican.

The DEATH OF Senator Anthony has re-
moved long familiar object from amor g
the personnel of American politics. Mr.. An.
thongs reputation, however, depended more
upon his length of service than his intrinsic
merit. He was mediocre man in every
particular, and though possessed of refined
feelings, and naturally disposed to do what
was right, he never had either the nerve or
the ability to rise above the condition of a
party hack.

The Malone Electoral Ticket.

A dispatch from Rich moud says that
Governor Cameron goes to New York to-
night to have an interview with the nation
al republican committee. A call has been
made upon Malone by twenty six of forty
two republican members OF the Legislature
setting forth the policy of recognizing all of
the elements in the State opposed to demo
Gratis. 1t is understood that NIahone's com
mittee will revise the Blaine and Logan
electoral ticket made necessary in part, by
the changes made in the electoral law by
the Legislature This change will give the
old republicans five representatives and the
new republicans seven Of the twelve cleo.
tors to which this State is entitled. Malone
is organizing his forces in all portions of the
State
The Richmond Dispatch of to. day says
"In accordance with General Malone :
view there will be some four or five change 5
in the ticket, but it is safe to say that the
straightouts will not have the recognition
they ask, nor, indeed, any at all. Mr.. r.,
L. HUBBARD is now on the ticket as presiticu.
tial elector, and is also the nominee for
Congress. He will be dropped from the
former position Mr.. f. w. HUBBARD and
Mr.. S. Brown Allen are both in the same
district, aud one or the other will be drop
ped. In this way there will be several va
cancies created, which General Malone will
fill. Governor Cameron means to support
Evans in preference to Brady, and claims
that the Evans convention had about sew
enty ont of the ninety regularly. elected del
egates. 1t is not yet decided whether he
will speak during the canvass, hut that he
will do so is not unlikely, as he is determn
ed to show that though he is fighting ma
chine (Mahone) methods he is fighting inside
the party. Governor Cameron is contem-
plating visit to New York, and it is sur
missed that he has political business there.
"T'he fact that the Seventh District con
vention endorsed Cameron, is taken rs show
ing the handiwork of Riddleberger, who is
well known as a sympathzer with Came
ron. The petition of the republican mem
beers of the Legislature as 10 the electoral
ticket went over 10 Petersburg to General
Malone yesterday"

ON MONDAY the democrats swept Ark
ansas by an increased majority. Yesterday,
as was expected, the republicans carried
Vermont, but by such reduced majority,
and that, too, though the democrats, in
view of the immense odds against them,
hardly made an organized contest, that the
same ratio of reduction in the other North
ern States will effectually eliminate Mr..
Blaine from American politics. The hand
writing is on the wall.

GENERAL LOGAN, in recent speech, said
"the democratic party had resisted every

power the then Mr.. Logan was one OF lis
most pronounced and ultra members.

REPUBLICAN RALLY IMMENSE
As previously announced the Blaine

regalia last Saturday evening to the
number of seventy or more and pa
raded through the principal streets of
both cities. The regalia is very neat
and attractive and the company showed
off to advantage as they marched
through the streets. Our democratic
brethren could not but express them
selves favorabIy In relation to the
plumed knights. The citizens gener-
ally who witnessed the procession spoke
of it in the highest terms. After
marching through the cities the club
proceeded to the Court House where
large crowd assembled to listen to
Judge Webb on the political issues.
The Judge delivered very sensible
speech on the points of interest in the
campaign and enlightened his hearers
on the truthfullness of the Muligan
letters.

with situations than any College in

sitions than it can supply. Located

graduates filling frst-class positions
there, placed there by it's influence,
while in Lacrosse many Of the best
book-keepers' situations are held by
its graduates. -MeaaSha Press.
1t is surprising how easily people
can be humbugged. We were once
sufficiently verdent to accept an ad-

learned at our cost what fraud it is.
We warn all our people from taking
any stock in what the proprietor may
say concerning his college, if the man

him. He will beat you if he can.
