WHEREVER Gov. Black makes his

WHEREVER Gov. Black makes his
appearance and speaks to the people
he gains a strong foothold with the
masses. While at Pittsburg the 9TH
er day at least 5000 people had gath
cred around the speakers stand to
hear Black talk. When he was intro
duced he was greeted with deafening
applause. Mr.. Black spoke in his
plain, matter of fact way. without at
tempt at oratory, but his words had a
convincing effect upon his hearers and
the democrats of the smoky city are
thoroughly aroused to the work of
this campaign. The Irish Blaineites
pleasantly surprised the future Gov
ernor by sending a committee of five
to his rooms at the Central Hotel who
read an address in which the Irish vo-
ters pledge themselves in the most
decisive language to support the dem
ocratic standard bearer in the coming
contest. Blacks political sky is TAX
in g On brighter hues every day.

AS we announced in our last issue
J. K. P. Hall, of Elk county, received
the congressional nomination in this
district and be received it in fair and
regular manner, all the reports of Re-
publican papers to the contrary not
withstanding. The people of Mr..
Halls home at st. Mary gave vent to
their sentiments and feelings by
giving him the warmest and most en-
thusiastic reception. Straws tell which
way the wind blows and the signifi-
cance of such public demonstrations is
unmistable. Mr.. Hall is certainly q
man who enjoys the highest esteem
of his neighbors and townspeople and
is also very popular with the laboring
classes. Since his nomination is the
deliberate work of the congressional
conferees Mr.. Hall can lay just claims
to the full support of the democratic
party of the Goth district. On the
other hand his claims should be hon.
ored by the democratic voters and
they are in duty bound to stick to
their ticket and thus do their full
share in electing a democratic con-
gresham. Our candidate is known
to be of sterling character, with ample
brains and education, and he has prov
en- in the pest that his party afilia-
Aioos are strong and lasting. Let all
who profess to be of democratic faith
give the aehole ticket boom, for any
ching less than thet will not answer
for q good democrat. And lastly
vote for James Polk Knox Hal,
for Congress.

CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-General Manager
John Muir of the Chesapeake and Ohio
line, is in the city arranging for the quota.
tion OF through rates from Chicago to Liv.
erpool on grain and other traffic via New.
port News. The new steamship line OF
the Chesapeake and Ohio. to run between
Newport News and Liverpool, Will GO
into operation Dec. Is. A semi-monthly
service is to be established and it Id
claimed that rates will be made that will
attract business by that route. There is
hitch In its operation in this territory
by reason of its connection, the CIncin-
natl, indianapolis, st. Louis and Chicago
road being a member of the pool.
In seeking Tor grain freight,
however, 1t will probably do ita
principal business through st. Louis.

Vile and st. Louis read. 1t is stated that
1t will make the same through rate via
Newport News as is now being made via
New Orleans, and If this means the barge
line rate IL will cut considerably under
the pool figures. In this connection IL 10
stated that q rate is being made from
Kansas City to Liverpool, all rail to New

Louisville and Nashville, G. |. Granemiee
of the Evansville and Terre Haute, and
Commissioner Blanchard represented the
Central Traffic Association. After some
discussion the fact was conceded tnat the
Chesapeake and Ohio was not necessarily
to be regarded as formidable rival
OF the Central Traffic Association. Both
parties then agreed to do the best they
could TO promote each others interests.
The Chesapeake and Ohio promised tn
maintain by It's all rail lines the Central
Traffic Association all-reil rates. The
difterentlals heretofore awarded the Chess
apeake and OHIO road on business taken
by Its water route will be continued. That
road Will also charge Baltimore rates onl
business taken by 1t to Newport News. Id
was also agreed that the Central Traffic

Will hereafter exchange staustics that
