Illinois Governor Shot at.

CHI CAGO, March 24.-A dispatch
from Springfield, H., says: "While
Governor IIamlinton was in his Office
at the state house this afternoon a piS-
tol shot crashed through a window into
the executive mansion. a man at
work in the vicinity, asserts that the
shot was fired by boy who was en-
gagged in pigeon shooting, but from the
fact that an occurance precisely of the
same nature, proceeded it Il short time
ago, there are apprehensions of plot
to assaSslnate the state executive. .

ton in our politics and one that must
be met sooner or later. Nothing can
be gained by policy of dodging and
cowardice If the Democratic mass
cs are for tariff reform, as they m-
doubtedly are, the party in Congress
can do no less than show the courage
of their convictions and stand or fall
by the position taken. The policy of
having no policy and of standing
round waiting for something to turn
up, running for cover every time amy
thing happens, is not a lofty or win
ming business for any party.
1t has been again said lately that
Secretary Lincoln would resign his
place in the Cabinet because his name
is mentioned in connection with the
Presidential nomination. But / would
not advise him to do it. His candida
turc, if such it is, grows out OF SEN
timent that might possibly give him
second place on the ticket, but hardly
the first. The only strength he poSs-
esScs is that which he derived from
the reat name of his father and the at-
lection in which his memory is held
bv the people Charlie Farwcll of
Chicago, who is the leader of the op-
position in Illinois to General Logan,
NAV use Lincoln in an effort to de-
prive Logan of a few delegates from
that State, but at this time Mr.. Lin
coin does not occupy much space as a
Presidential candidate. His nomina-
ton for the first place would be as
great surprise to the Republican
managers as was that Of Garfield in
1880. For the second place Mr.. Lin
coin stands an excellent chance, proyi-
dcd of course, Logan should fail Il
get the first place. Either Blaine and
| Lincoln. or John Sherman and Lin
coin would possess greater strength
than to name Lincoln for the first
place in connection with any of the
names that are likely to he presented
for the Vice Presidency.
When the keifer-Boyton invcstiga-
ting committee sent to the IRE asury
Department last week for a few official
papers, they were very much surpris-
ed to have the venerable Secretary
come To the committee room in per
son to deliver thcm-a duty which
could have been performed by any
messenger or clerk, as no subpoena
had been issued for anybody Apro-
pros to this. | heard Il good story
the other day about the Secretary. Ii
illustrates his way of trying to do ey'

JUDGE BUCK FOR REPRESENTA-.
TIVE

The hearty endorsement given TO the
candidacy Of Judge Buck for represen-
tative from this legislative district, in
his unanimous nomination by the con-
VeutiOn Saturday bespeaks an equally
hearty support at the polls this fall; and
secures for EmpOria the assurance that
her representative at Topeka this winter
will be one whose abilities, wide &C
quaIntance with men, and reliable judg-
meat on matters of public policy will
give him a position of conspicuous
leadership. Judge Buck combines in
an unusual degree qualities that will
make him a successful legislator. A
finished and allie speaker, careful
and conservative in his judgments,
yet positive in his convictions,
with 40 reproaches that can be cast upon
his personal integrity, pos essed OF a
high order of legal knowledge and
acumen, thoroughly identified for the
past nfteen years with the interests OF
Emporia and the state At large, widely
and favOrably known among public men

whence he has come among US. May
the joy and fraternsl spirit of the even.
