Sans Sister Jessie.

There Is a young man in Oakland
who has young sister by the name of
Jessie, who was sent to a fashionable
school for young ladies. He said when
she left home he wondered if she would
acquire the airs and affectations that
certain young ladies that he knew had
by attending the fashionable seminary.
After being there a year he began to
fstter himself that his sister was proof
against such nonsense, when he receiv-
ed letter signed "Jessica," instead of
Iessie, as heretofore. To answering he
wrote somsthing like this. ''Dear
Sister Jessica. Your welcome letter
received. Mammaica and dpapaica are
well. Aunt Maryica and Uncle Geor-
eica started for the Santa Cruz Noun
tains yesterday. Have bought a new
horse it is a beauty; it is named
Maudica, etc. Your afectiona;e
brother, Samica." The nextletter was
signed Jessie.

THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.

We go to press al too early an hour
to give the results. Up to yesterday
afternoon only preliminary business
had been transacted. The committee
on resolutions lad asked further time
to report. Cleveland, Carlisle,
Thurman and Bayard were the princi-
pal names presented. but the conven-
ton had not reached ballot. Ap-
pearances indicate the nomination OF
one of these four names. So far the
name of B. F. Butler had no. been put
forward, although there was strong
outside pressure to work up boom in
his favor. The convention will doubt
less ballot to-day (Friday), but under
the two.third rule it is doubtful if a very
speedy conclusion can be reached.

"Fr0m Earth to Heaven"

There is little book published by
the Holiness denomination, entitled,
"From Earth to Heaven" During the
church trial which occurred here last
week, one of the Holiness brethren
found it necessary to nave one of the
books, and as there was not one in
town he went to the telegraph Office
and sent the following message to his
mother in neighboring town: "Send
me from Earth to Heaven, by express,
Immediately" This was too much for
some of the operators along the line
and one of them remarked, "me too,
Pete" and another said 81 want to be
in that express package, if it is to go

SELF-BlNDER
Needs no Vindi-
cation /!
But there are some things
that It and its Agents
will not do.

The Osborne will not slip into the
field two or three days PRIOR to time
set for a field trial-make a failure
and write to its friends that there will
be no trial, and then deny all know
ledge of the fact that there was to have
been one.
The Osborne will not go to the place
set for trial a week after the time ap-
pointed and manufacture vindication.
CIT NEEDS NO VINDICATION)
The Osborne nor its Agents will not
ride over the county and misrepresent
statements made by Agents of other
machines, putting words into farmers
mouths for the purpose of yirdicatirg G
itself.
The Osborne will not procure state
ments from farmers and then re write
and distort such statements into a
meaning entirely different from what
the farmer intended.

Nomination OF VanCleye.

The Senatorial convention for this
district assembled at Moberly on Tues.
day. 1t was soon evident that, as Ran.
dolph county had the nomination in
her own hands, it was no longer
question of fitness or qualification, of
loyalty and devotion to Democracy,
but miserable dog fight between the
two factions in Randolph county that
divide and disgrace that county, and
render its people unfit to participate in
the politics of the State. The court
house and county seat question with
them is the over-shadowing issue to
which all things else must be subordi-
nate. This is especially true of Hunts
vile delegates who were elected by the
friends of DeFrance. and who, the
night before the convention met, were
"seen" by Gen. Vancleye, and a COM
bination made by which he received
their vote, which nominated him, not
withstanding the fact that Mr.. DeFrance
carried the primaries. The Moberly
and east side delegation acted manly,
and were willing to bury the court
house issue and cooperate with the
Huntsville delegates in selecting the
best man for the place All their over
lures were repulsed. Huntsville had
the FIVE votes that would nominate the
Senator, and she proposed to put them
where they would do her the most good,
in disregard of the wishes ofthe voters
of the western district, who thought
they were electing delegates favorable
to DeFrance.-LaPkata Home Press.
