BLAINE AND LOGAN.

The Republican candidates possess
elements OF personal strength. They
have what is sometimes called imagine
tism"--whatever that may be. Mr..
Blaine has nn immense personal ac-
auaintance aud can throw his arm around
the shoulder and whisper in the ear of
more than any other publlc character
living. Logan has the strength OF a
fearless and positive man, and Is Justly
entitled to the atfection OF the soldier
element Of the North. But these are not
the men who have the confidence Of the
better class Of people. He had been IN
Congress one of the most pronounced
supporters of the Democracy, and loud
defender OF every doctrine announced by
the South. During the canvass his old
speeches will be quoted from TO prove
that his Inter professions of fealty and
devotion to the Republican party rest
upon no principle, but are simply born
of his determination to stick to the VIII
ming side. His entire career exhibits
him in the light of a Swiss mercenory
who holds that "the best of causes is the
best of pay"
As TO Blaine, his political career is
spotted all over with charges OF venality
The cartoons of The day do not hesitate
to portray him as "the spotted monde
script" OF the political menagerie. The
New York Times has openly and fire.

what Thomas a Hendricks Says
Of the letter.

INDIANAPOLIS, June l1.-Hon.
Thomas A. Hendricks, in an inter.
view concerning Tilden's letter of
declination, said that the news was
not a surprise to him, for when he
visited Tilden in August last that
gentleman very firmly announced his
intention to remain permanently out
of politics. On a succeeding visit in
April the same determination had
been expressed
Mr.. Hendricks thought there was
little doubt that the old ticket would
have been unanimously elected at
he Chicago Convention if it had not
kesn for the declination to-day. He
| said that the demand for it among
,,'.be Democracy was almost universal
saT greater than any movement of
thelsfnd had ever been in politics.
Personally he felt no great disap-
pointment He did not want the
office of Vice President eight years
ago and did not want it now. If the
old ticket had remained in the field
he should have considered his cleo
tion to that place great honor con
ferred by the people as rebuke to
what they consider great wrong; it
would have prevented the seating Of

Special to the Times-DenOcrat.
New YORK, June ll.-General f.
G. Barlow, vino was prominent in his
efforts to count Hayes in, being one
of the visiting statesmen to Florida,
has returned from Chicago prOnoun-
eed kicker. "Since my return" he
said to-day, 81 have seen enough to
know that the best Republicans will
never vote for man with any such
political record as Blaine's. The op-
position to him is not due personal
feelings or the disappointment Of
politicians, but to the fact that the man
placed at the head of the Republican
party is so palpably the wrong man
that not even party feeling or politi
cal enthusiasm can make intelligent
Republicans swallow the dose.
"The anti-Blaine movement will
gain force every day. On Friday a
meeting will be held here in my office
Of the members Of the Independent
Republican Committee, to consider
what steps shall be taken to defeat
Blaine and to make arrangements for
the nomination or support of good
ticket. No action viii probably be
taken toward nominating an Inde-
pendent candidate until after the
Democratic Convention; then, if a
good ticket is nominated, that will
probably settle the question,as have
not the slightest doubt that the entire
Independent vote, with a great many
hitherto Republican votes are now
at the disposal of the Democrats il
they nominate the right man This
meeting will be followed by larger
one on Tuesday next"

East Mississippi will in a few vearr

East Mississippi will in few years
become one of the most important
dairy sections in the Union. All the
grasses and clovers thrive as well OF
better here than they do even in
Kentucky, and the Jersey and Hol-
stein breed of cattle have more than
met the expectations OF our farmers
IN this immediate section the dairy
business is already attaining large
proportions and is proving very sats
isfactory and profitable, Messrs
Bowman and Hamlin Of this place
have excellent herds, the former con-
sisting of grades and thoroughbred
Jerseys, and the latter of the same
with a few Holsteins. Tho jersey
bull at the head of Mr.. Bovman's
herd is splendid one, and the H0l-
stein at the head of Mr.. Hamlin's,
which was imported from the North,
we believe, is one of the finest in the
South. These gentlemen find ready
sale for the splendid products Of
their dairies in this place and at
Meridian and other important points
The Jersey herd of Col. Fl: L.
Muldrow,at his farm four miles south
of this place, is probably the finest
and most valuable in the State, and
the magnificent Jersey tull, of the
"Mercury" family, which cost $1,000
when four months old, being at the
head of it. The products of this
dairy cannot be surpassed, aud ore
shipped regularly to New Orleans,
where they command ready sale at
the highest fgures Col. Muldtow s
heard ie made up Of the very best
representatives from the lending
herds of the country, most OF them
having been brought from New Eng
land, New York and Maryland.
Dairymen at the North who desire
to engage in their business in a more
pleasant climate should by all means
come to this point. With our great
attractions of soil and climate, and
our superior railway facilities, this
immediate section is tie place OF all
others in the South for conducting
the dairy business on a large scale.

more than half an inch, If that, the
weather report of the Kansas University is
the more interesting. 1t says that Sep
tembcr WAS remarkable for high mean
temperature and its extraOrlinary,rai
Its mean temperature exceeded that of
every other September In the past sixteen
years except 1881. Its rainfall was three
times the average for the month, and
nearly three inches greater than that OF
any previous September. Excepting June,
1876, which produced 1911 inches of rain,
it was the rainiest month OF any name
upon our seventeen years record. There
were two days In this month which regis
tered over three inches of rain. there hav-
ing previously been but five such days in
the entire period OF Our observation, The
month has been entirely free from frost,
and the immense corn crop of kansas is
already well ripencd Ia most localities.
The rainfall for the month was 9.l5 inches,
which is COZ above the September aver.
age. Rain feIl on eight days. On the
23rd three inches fell in two hours, which
Is the heaviest rain in the same time on
our record. There were five thunder
storms. The entire rainfall for the nine
months of 1884 now completed has been
1896 inches, which is 9.s7 inches above
the average for the same months in the
preceding sixteen years.

The result of the election last Tuesday

has only been few weeks since they hat

and hc Is Indeed weak brother in the

The real battle ground is to be IN New

or course we would now be feeling more
cheerful II Ohio had given the democrats a
good send of; but because il did not does
not make us Respondent.
As related elsewhere in this Issue, the
entire republican forces were centred In
Ohio; sc'llawags and negroes were i'm
porn'd there by the thousands; barrels of
money were poured out la that state; gov.
eminent officials were sent there from
Washington, and no expense spared to
carry the state.
In November this kind of work cannot
snececd-iheIe arc too many states to buy,
and we predict that the people will become

Ohio last Tuesday that they will show
their disapproval by voting for democrats

candidate that could be named. The case
with which he was foreordIined TO curry
Ohio was cited as proof Of his ability to
overcome by the moral effect of this great
October triumph the independent iopposi-
ton in New York. If any one will con-
suit the Blaine journals just previous to
his nomination, or for few weeks subse-
quent TO it, he will lind this claim of easy
victory in Ohio repeated over and over
again, coupled with the assurance or a
victory in West Virginia as we'll. The
October campaign closes with this Boosting
very seriously modified: West Virginia
went democratic. In Ohio the situation
became so critical rs the canvass advanced
that Mr.. Blaine himself had to be put on
the stump, and every day for the past two
weeks he has beeL paradcd through all the
towns and villages begging for votes by
personal appeal to his party. The effect OF
his trip wOuld be to bring out the full re-
publican vote. Then the Dudley money
machine is in good order, and will be able
control few thousand scattering votes
The national committee had hoped thai
Ohio might have gone democratic Tuesday
but really conceded it to the republicans by
from 10000 to $4,000.

The following from the Abilene Gazette
will be Of interest to those who bet or loan
money OH elections:
A case of considerable interest 70 those
who bet their money, or loan 1t, on elcc-
tons, was tried In Justice Quinn's court
last week. Two years ago, when st. John
was running for governor of Kansas, Mr..
George Swartz, 4 citizen OF Topeka, and
now travelling tor the Eau Claire, Wtscon-
sin. lumber company, made q wager OF
$40 with an Abilene citizen that st. john
would be elected, and Swsrtz, having only
$40 OF the amount, borrowed the other SIC
from Jones, who was made stakeholder
Swartz, Of course, lost, and Jones paid $40
over to the Abilene winner, with the cop-
sent Of Swartz. Jones tried many tiIhes
to get the $40 from Swartz loaned him, but
SwartZ refused TO pay, and few days Ago
Jones sued for his $40. Swartz. came intS
court and plead that it was unlawful to
loan money for the kpurpose,Eof betting
and that the plaintiff could not recover by
the statutes Of Kansas, and the question
was argued at great length by the attorneys
upon either side. But the court ruled 9th.
erwise, and decided that "a loan was q
debt Of honor, incumbent OH the defend
ant to pay the same US any other cause"
and gave judgment for the amount asked
The loan was proven BY two reliable wit
