Examiner:-The Republican politi-
CLANS are daily throwing away their
chances OF breaking the Solid South.
The other day they split wide open in
Virginia, and sent two rival delegations
to Chicago. Now they have done al
most the same thing in North Carolina.
Whenever Southern Republicans come
within smelling distance of success, it is
safe TO predict row over spoils that
will relegate them again to the position
of an oppressed minority. :,

In the proceedings Of the Winnemuc-
ca Convention We find the following:
"The selection OF aiternates for the
Electors Was referred to the State Gem
trail Committee
While it is the usual custom to select
slternates for Delegates to National
Convention, for the reason that in case
q Delegate cannot be present at the
Convention he may be represented by
duly chosen substitute, this is the first
time we ever heard of the selection of
alternates for candidates who are to be
chosen by vote of the people. Elec-
tors are voted for at the general cleo
ton, the same as other State officers,
and it would be just as reasonable for
Convention to select alternates for Re-
gents of the State University, or ON al
ternate for Congressman. or for Su-
preme Judge, as to select slternates for
Electors who are to be chosen by a vote
of the people Of the State. We would
advise the Republican National Con-
Fention at Chicago to select an alternate
for President, for their nominee will
not be able to "get there" as circum-
stances over which he has no control
will prevent his appearance at the
White House on the 4th of March, 1889.

toners the firm Of Kizer Bros, Of Ham
mond, ILL.,. whom he had never met per.
sonally. , Two weeks ago while on a rail-
way train in Illinois Helm was approached
by a stranger who introduced himself as
kizer, of Hammond, Ill. The stranger
offered Helm several cars of grim for $500.
which Helm accepted. The following day
bills lading for seven OF eight additional
cars We're received by Helm. who RENTED
$500 more. A few days later the two met
ut the fair i'll Hammond, ILL.,, when Kizer
succeeded in getting Helm to put
him on financial footing with Busey's
a day or two INTERVIEWED before
ki.er presented bills Of lading
from j. $. Lapham. of Detroit, on which
the bank advanced him $$2.5OO. A few
days later kizer wrote the First National
banks of Danville, ILL.,. ~inclosing bills of lad
lug for ten carlonds of grain on Wardwell
n Mcintyre, of New York. and requesting
that Sl,75O he expressed to Kixer Bros,
Iyesdale, Ill. The bank refused the re-
quest and sent the bills of lading with q
draft to Kizer Bros, Hammond. This was
the FIRMS first intimation of crookcdness
going OH in their name and they notified
the bank that the entire transaction was a
forgery. The total number of bills forged
by the spurious kizcr were OH thirty five
carloads of grain on prominent New York,
Detroit aud Cincinnati firms. The only
losers are j. W. Helm, S4.6OO, and
Bnsey's bank, $500, who nave made good
the losses to the gram firms. The identity
of the swindler and forger remains undis-
covered.
