A STALE EGG.

The explosion is not that OF n bombshelI,
but OF Il stale egg. There are nice and
important questions It's to what public
men in this country are to do with them
selves. Shall they all upon entering the
'rvicc OF the people, make VOWS OF ever
| tsting poverty? Shall 4 public man Lc
ut liberty to use his intelligence and his
faculties ior the management OF affairs in
his private business? Shall he ever
under any circumstances, engage in any
enterprise that is speculative in any de-
gree, and touches at any angle the general
welfare? II he isa lawyer, he is allowed
fees. Ii he is not Il lawyer,
shall he insist upon ignoring all
the opportunities for money making that
he sees. Not only are these questions
delicate, they are not settled according 10
the fine scales OF truth and justice. 1t has
not been decided yet by the American
people that only men who have Inherited
or who have carly accumulated riches,
shall enter public life. All the letters that
have been printed first and last fail to
show through all the italics and capitals
and exclamation marks that can be ad-
justcd to them, and all the collations OF
phrases possible, that James q. Blaine
ever did any public wrong for private
gain; and that is the point OF the whole
business. Right there the line should be
drawn and maintained. 1t is an invinci-
bic breastwork for the friends OF Blaine.

f WHEELING, W. VA, September l4.-The
political situation in this State continues
favorable 10 the Republicans. The Demo,
cratic factional fight which began early in
the spring, when the Register, the party
organ in the State, charged the present
Democratic administration with wrecking
the party, md called for its repnliation,
eliminated in IN open row in the State
convention, which was admittedly the
most disgraceiul scene ever enacted in n
State convention. The Register, having
lost the fight there was not enthusiastic.

until the middle OF August, and the cam

were bcguiled by the lying wool circulars
of Gil Barger last fall, evidence is at hand
that they will return to their ancient

by General Robinson in Congress on the
wool question is 4 strong factor in the
campaign, and in great contrast to some OF
the Democratic congressman who are now
going up and down the State with the old

SUCCESS AT HAND,

As fur rs the Republicans are concerned,
the-prospects OF 4 triumph are daily in
creasing, and evidence is not wanting that
success will crown their efforts month
hence. From. everywhere reports of the
best character are coming. In the large
cities OF Cincinnati, Cleveland, DAYTON,
Springfield, Columbus, etc, the Germans
who were alienatcd from the Republican,
party by the liquor question injected into
the campaign, are returning to the fold in
regiments and brigades, while the Irish
voters who arc proud OF the record OF
Blaine as Il distinctive American, while
dcspising that OF Grover Cleveland, have
Irish Republican clubs springing up at
every principal city in Ohio. lrishmen
who never voted q Republican ticket in

lrshmen in my county who will vote for
Blame in November, but the
point is they must vote ior Robinson
in October in order to give moral and
political affect to their action" The
correspondent thought Mr.. Greiner spoke
much wisdom in the above. He
would have the Irish voters everywhere
to know that it is Of the most vital import

Their $4,000 Contribution for Cas-
sidy's Defeat, Etc.
Recently a cock-and-bull story came
along that the Mormon's of Utah had
agreed to give a big part of their tithes to
help out In the election Of Cleveland on
condition that they are to receive there
after the admission of Utah as a State.
1t was all a canard. They would give any
thing, however, to down the Democratic
nominee for Congress. In confirmation of
which read this from the Salt Lake Trib-
une:
The dirty News copies the following
from the Tribune:
Ten thousand dollars was sent to help
on the Grant campaign twelve years ago;
a whole sack full of church money was
sen TO Nevada two years ago to defeat Mr..
Cassidy, and what is infinitely more de-
grading the order Of the church went to
Idaho two years ago to nominate and elect
il possible, a certain candidate for Dele
gate, and doubtless the same order went
there this year.
The News then proceeds to denounce the
foregoing as false, utterly false-a willful
fabrication. In answer we might say we

not good enough to find out, but we will
not. We do say that the late Capt. Hooper,
a gentleman whose word was worth the af-
fdavits of a thousand such men as the
editor of the News, told a gentleman of
this city that he sent $40. 900 to help on the
Grant campaign. A good Mormon, who is
thoroughly we'll known in this city, carried
a sack direct from this city two years ago,
to Tuscarora, New, to help defeat Mr.. Cas-
sidy. A gentleman there persuaded him
not to use a part Of the money. Thatg gen.
tleman's affidavit to the truth of the fore
going can be had if desired. About the
order (which was couched in the form Of a
%reduess) going to Idaho, affirm the same
thing. Will the News think the above over
and decide who it thinks has been lying in
this business? Why is it so squeamish Z

As announced elsewhere in this morn

Presidential Elector ON the Democratic
ticket, will address the people of Eureka
next Wednesday evening. 1t is to be re-
GREETED that his engagement conflicts with
the programme for the Catholic Fair, the
managers of which have secured the
Opera House for several evenings begin

other place in fowl large enough
to hold the audience that will be
likely to greet Col. Ellis, and his health
Is such as to forbid his speaking in the

possible, without breaking in upon the
programme Of the ladies' fair, some ar
rangement will be made by which the
Opera House may be had for the occasion
Of Col. Ellis speech. Due notice will be
given of whatever may be done in the

the front in this way, but when they do,
they ars sure to be well patronized, for our
