TOM OCHILTREE'S STORY.

Colonel Tom Ochiltree, with suspici-
ously red handkerchief in his hands, which
he vigorously protests is not a bandana, :"
tells this story:
When Thurman was in the Senate one
of his fellOw-members was Henry q. Da-
Wis, of West Virginia, the father-in-law of
S. B. Elkins. An important debate came
on, in which Thurman took leading part
In the midst fit Davis went to sleep, with
his head on his arm on his desk Thur
man stopped to blow his nose, and it is
one of his personal peculiarities that on
such an occasion he literally wakes the
dead. On this occasion he woke Davis
who, in early life, was Baltimore and
Ohio brakeman, and who, as he opened
his eyes, caught sight of Thurman's red
handkerchief waving in the air In his
half-dazed condition he coupled the sound
and the bandana into a railroad danger
signal and grabbing his desk he attempt
ed to twist it around like an old fashioned
brake before he remembered where he
was, and began to laugh at his delusion

HARRISON'S LABOR RECORD.

Albany Express.
Benjamin Harrison, while Z. S. Sen
ator, voted in favor of the law forbidding
the importation of gangs of Hungarian
and Italian labOrerS under contract. A
more beneficial law was never enacted,
and the failure of the present administra-
ton to enforce it is arousing the wage
workers and all American citizens who
object to the importation by contractors
of human cattle to disturb our labor mar
ket and debauch American citizenship
The organs that are prOclaiming Benja-
min Harrison the enemy of labor" have
apparently overlooked his record on the
anti-cOntract bill that became a law by
the signature of President Arthur. Ben
jamin Harrison opposed not only the i'm
pOrtation of coolies by the Chinese Six
Companies, but that equally Objectiona-
BILE kind of industrial serfdom, the impOr-
tatiOn of cheap and ignorant European
labor under contract.

FAIRMONT, W. ", July 1O.-A heavy
rainfall prevailed throughout large dis
trict of central West Virginia from Sun
day evening until late Monday night, and
caused freshet in both branches of the
MOnOngahela River such as was never be-
fore known. The river at this point was
two feet higher than it was in 1852. The
destruction of property is beyond present
computation, but enough is known to war
rant the declaration that all houses and
fences on the lOwlandS between this point
and Clarksburg on the West Fork. and as
far as Grafton, on the Valley River, have
been swept away.
Ten or twelve houses were swept away
from the town of WorthingtOn, and many
bridges and Touring mill swept away.
CLARKsBURG, w. ", July 10.-Never
in the history of this county has such a
devastating flood occurred as to day. Be
side twenty houses carried away much
property has been ruined Bridges, lum-
ber and mills were swept away. The loss
can not now be estimated.
GRAFTON, w. ", July 10.-The rise in
the Valley River last night and to-day is
unprecedented. Buildings, mills, and
bridges were swept away. The damage
in this immediate vicinity will reach fully
S250,0O0.
ROwLEsBURG, July 10.-One saw mill.
seventeen dwellings, planning mill, and
an iron railroad bridge have been swept
away here. Five families have lost all
they possessed. Losses here will aggre-
gate $l25,0O0.

of New York Suns telegram to Its cor

defeated in that state. Only few OF the
Drawer spirits had manifested their faith
in Republican success there. Just as
this was received the first precinct
in Indianapolis received report
from the Twenty-fourth ward, q
Democratic stronghold, showing q gain
of ten for Hsrrleon. At this the crowd
dmult WAS very grsat. The proportion
In Indians, II unif0rn all over the state,
would just about wipe out Cleveland's
plurality OF 65Sl In 1884, indicating de-
gree OF closeness thst is very uRcomfort-
able to politicians. Chairman Hus-
ton again asserted his belief
thst Indiana is reliably Repu 0lican.
There can be nothing definite said re-

First (EVansville) district, and the e.ec-

This caused commotior, and hope soon
was running high, Offers to bet being freely

any time in ihe Canvass. The crowd Is in
q state OF hilarious enthusiasm. They
are singing and shouting "Whs!'s the
matter with Grover? He's sll right"
The hopsful feeling seems to have grown
to one of security. One gentleman re-
marked, "When German sent message

"Forlorn hope. 1t looked as II Illinois

ne jubilsnt over tns Indications showing
General Hsrrlson's election, but feel, as
one gentleman expressed It, that "tha

The County Convention.

Tho County Convention which meets
today will lave several important
matters to consider. Tho first bust
ness will be tho election of delegates
to the State Convention on Thursday.
These delegates will have voice in
the various matters now agitating the
State, and 1t is of the greatest impor-
tancc that full and froe expression Of
opinions among the county delegates
be had, in order that delegates to the
State Convention may fully represent
the views Of tho.pcople.
The first and most important ques-
ton will be that cf having primary
elections for State, Congressional and
judicial officers. This innovation has
been considerably agitatcd in the State,
more especially by those counties
which have q large preponderanco Of
white population. This matter is of
the greatest Importance to Fairfield
county. W. have an overwhelming
negro population. According to tho
present plan we represent 80, 900 people
in tho councils of the party. If this pri-
mary scheme is adopted we would be u
mere drop iii the bucket. We would
then represent only the white voters in
tho county which, as compared with
tho white vote of other counties, is a
mere bagatcllc. This plan, if adopted,
IN In N mo mi
over to the hands Of those counties,
like Greenvillc and Spartanburg,
which havo largo white majority,
and practically blot out the Influence
Of tho intelligence and wealth Of those
counties which arc so unfortunate as
to have a negro majority. This is
wrong and contrary to tho spirit Of
our institutions. There is little doubt
but What this issue will be brought
before the Convention. We trust that
our delegates will well consider the
injustice Of the scheme and the disad-
vantage to which their county will be
placed.
Another matter to be considered is
whether nominations for State officers
shall be made III the Convention on
Thursday. This 10 discussed in the
State as IA matter Of great Importance.
1t can In tho end mako littlc difference
ono way or the othor, but as no candi-
dates or their merits have yet boon
considered it is the opinion Of some of
our best citiZcns that it might be well
postponed until later in tho year.
And last but not least the Conven-
ton will elect delegates who shall
havo voice in national affairs. The
action to be taken is settled conclu-
sion. Fairfield is for Grover Clcvc-
land and tariff reform, and will act
accordingly.
These matters uro the most impor-
tant to bo considered, md tho people
Of Fairfield arc confident that it's
representatives will act in harmony
and forthc greatest good to the county.
