The Legislative Convention

There seems to be some confusion
in the public mind in regard to the
two conventions. 1t has for yesrs
been the custom OF the Democratic
party in this county to hold M con-
vention to nominate a candidate for
Congress and another to put forth a
Legislative ticket. Sometimes a month
intervenes. Ga this occasion, how
ever, the Execui i've Committee de-
cided to elect delegates to both con-
ventiops on the same day, and they
we're all chosen last Tuesday. One set
Of delegates will attend today's con-
vention, aud another the convention
to be held next Thursday. The repre-
sen'ation from each ward and district
will be nearly twice as great next
Thursday as today.

ING DECK
Whence All but Him Have Fled,
and Looks Around ON TOday's
Convention.

The Democratic Congressional Con-
vention meets stthe Exposition build
ing at noon today. Hardeman county
will have Is delegates; Fayet,e, %;
Upton, 10, and Shelby II, making a
total of 1S6 votes. There seems to he
but n opinion, and that is that Mr..
Phelan will be nominated by acclama-
ton. A delegate from one OF the out
lying countit s, who was in the city
yesterday, said he was chosen by the
opposition, but he felt now that he
ought to insist on James Phelan's
unanimous nomination, and he in
tended to do it.
HE has made a splendid fight" the
gentleman remarked, land it would
be a very ~ungracious thing for any
member of the party to go into the
convention tomorrow and annoy him.
The world couldn't beat him now. He
might be worried a little, but he
would be nominated anyway. He has
walked up the party, and am satis fed
now that if he voluntarily retired
from any cause it would be hard to
find a man who could make as good a
fight as he will make. In my mind
there is no more doubt about his cleo.
ton than there is about his nomina-
ton. His ability for organization hss
been shown in the most uumistaksble
way, and the support be hiss is not
only firm and uubendipg, but it is en-
thusi stic-a quality which will do
wonders in a close district such as the
Tenth. Hurrah for Phelsnl"

Gladstone's Success in Arousing the Pop
ular Feeling.

NEW YORK June 19th-T. P O'Connor
cables the Star from London of the 18th
1t is settled that Justin Mccarthy is to
stand again for Derry City instead of Her.
bert Gladstone, who was invited to do so.
but could not accept. Mccarthy feels con-
hdent of success. As matters now look
the Nationalists now count ON an increase
of six votes from Ireland alone, six from
England, and four from Scotland. High
spirits prevail at Gladst0nes headquarters
in London. His managers say their chief
has made glorious start, and never began
a campaign under auspices so favorable.
The news from Scotland has produced
enormous exhilaration. The Tories and
Wings themselves frankly admit Glad
stones success in arousing the popular feel
ing, which has been greater than was ex-
pected. 1t is acknowledged that his pros
poets of increasing the number of his i'm
mediate supporters in Parliament are Won
derfully improved. The effect on the op
position has been to urge them to greater
exertions. Gladstone's managers claim
that the Premier has successfully narrowed
the issue before the nation to the question
of coercion or home-rllle concessions. The
opposition decline to accept this, and are
working harder than ever to multiply the
issues. Ny own opinion is that the coun-
try will accept Gladstone's definition on
the one question as submitted by him, and
that the final decision at the polls will turn
on this.
Harrington and Chamberlain are, never
theless, persevering in their policy of fore
ing on side issues. Many other places are
agtated over the question of local self
government for England, Wales and Scot
land and the Gladstonites are finding great

of an answer to question put to F. G.

The Court sustained the objection James

Berkeley with his young wife and three
small children. His wife, Mrs Josephine
Eugenie Dunand, who is but twenty-six
years old has been hysterical for the past
few days. This morning when she arose
she seemed quite well. About half-past
O'Clock she went out of the house A few
minutes later a neighbor, Dr. Bellinger,
saw her body hanging under her house and
gave an alarm. Mr.. Dunand immediately
rushed under the house and found his wife
hanging by a hay rope. He cut the rope
and carried the body into the house Dr.
Payne, who lives not far from Mr. Du-
nand's house, was called in haste. The
lady was dead, however. and nothing could
be done by the physician. Mrs. Dunand
was resident of Sacramento before her
marriage. She was a lady very highly es-
teemed among her friends and in the COM
munity in which she lived"
