Mr.. H. C. Hunt, of Albany, N. Y, mem
Der of the Grand Army and a leading re-
publican, has written letter to a comrade
in which he says: II have been known to
you many years as most incorporating
republican, and l am now going to sur
prise you by stating that for the first time
in my life cannot support the nomina-
tions of the republican party. IT there is
any organization in the world to which
am attached it is the Grand Army of the
Republic, and when see they are going
to use it for purely political and partisan
ends, | believe it is time for an honest
Grand Army man to rebuke such attempts
to lead US like cattle to the shambles by
either voting against the candidate or not
voting at all. There is another reason
two, in fact; Our party has nominated a
man for Vice-President whose record as
Grand Army man is not very creditab!e to
our organization. He was virtually ex-
PEELED because he thought so little of it as
not to pay his dues. Then, again, for the
first place on he ticket our party has nam
ed man who has been assailed as corrupt
by the very best elements in that party,
and this very day there lis no republican
paper or orator to offer the slightest de-
tense to the charges brought against him.
Therefore, for this election at least, shall
vote for the reform Governor-Grover
Cleveland"

The Coming Plenary Council.

A pastoral letter from Archbishop Gibbons was

day relating to the assembling of the Plenary
Council in November. The pastoral states:
"Our Holy Father, Leo XIII, out Of his pater-
nal SOlicitude for the welfare of all the faithful
committed to his care, has desired all the bishops
of the Church i'm the United States to assemble
in penary council To consider the best means for
promoting the salvation of souls in this portion
of the Lords vineyard and because OF the infirm
health of His Eminence the Cardinal Arch bish-
op of New York who was 50 well qualified to pre-
side, not only on account of his high Office but
also Of his mature wisdom and weight of merits
His Holiness was pleased to appoint us to con-
woke, by apostolic authority, the third plenary
council of Baltimore and preside over the same

church at Baltimore on the 9th day Of Move mber;

now elapsed since the last plenary council was
held, and we have reason to be devOutly thank

has made i'm the United States since that period.

benefit to the chief pastors of the Church Of
America to meet again, after SO long an interval.

The Republicans of this congressional
district are so sorely depressed with for
lorn hope that hey have determined to i'm
press Holton with his barred into the ser
vice, nolens aelens. Their Convention met
and nominated him, Notwithstanding his
repeatedly expressed purpose not to make
the run, and at the same time refused to
take any steps looking to the reconvening
of the Convention in the event of Mr.. Hol-
toms declination. They appointed COM
mittee to wait on the owner of the barrel
and insist upon his acceptance. This COM
mittee hunted this cautious statesman all
over Baltimore city and county and final
ly came up with him in BARRIERS shop
in the city. Immediately, he was set upon
fy the Committee in an importunate,
won't-take-no-for-an answer appeal to
come to the relief of his despairing follow
ers. Mr.. Holton's weak vanity was evil
IDENTITY much fattered by the fulsome
things the committee said to him. but he
declined to give positive answer,an up
to this writing has failed to do so. AS the
effect of a declination now by Mr.. HoIton
would be to step down and out from the
grand old party and as he probably thinks
there is still bare possibility of there be-
ing some administration spoils to be DIS
tributed to his patty in the next four
years, it is probable that Mr.. Holton will
suffer himself to be whipped upon the
track to make the hopeless race. Since the
above was written Mr.. Holton has verified
our prediction by accepting.

Mr. Blaine, of Maine, is sustaining his
reputation as an arlful dodger. He is now
making cunning effort to get upon the
fence on the prohibition question, in the
vain hope of holding on to the German
vote in the West At the Maine election
on Monday he refused to vote on the pro-
hibition question, which action on his
part he has caused to be made public, with
the explanation that, because he has been
chosen by the Republican party as 'the
representative of national issues" he has
determined that by mo act Of mine shall
any question be obtruded into the national
campaign which belongs properly to the
domain of State politics" But, while this
prudent and cunning trimming of the
"Plumed knight" will probably cause the
prohibitionist Republicans to adhere more
closely to "Sinjln,' it is MT likely to have
much effect in the way of coaxing back
the distrustful and disaffected German
voters

The Democracy are more thoroughly arous

of Democrats, AID none will stay at home
on election day. Not only have the larger
towns formed political clubs, but the in

every hamlet boasts its Cleveland, Hen

cratic candidate for Governor, will carry
the state by $4,000 over Maxwell, the Flu
