Is or Was Cashier Mcdowell a Democrats

1t is related of Cashier Mcdowell of
the Farmers Bank, a reputed Demo
cratic convert to Harrison, Morton and
Doodle, that the gentleman has never
voted a Democratic ticket in his life.
We don't know how that may be, but
it is a poor time for a Democrat to be
led astray by Republican protection
chat, especially as the thing is running
entirely the other way and Republican
converts to Democratic sound sense are
offsetting our weakening brethren
ten to one.

LONDON, Juhe 80. Brilliant fetes and
receptions are being prepared at St. Pet
ersburg with which to honor the visit of
Emperor William, who will arrive on
the royal yacht Hohenzollern, on the
10th OF July, attended by an imposing
suite. The czar met Gen. Won Pape,
who was sent to the Russian court to
announce the accession of Emperor
William to the throne OF Germany. He
was received with great ceremony as the
message bearer Of the king and was after
wards the chief guestofa a state dinner Civ
en- at the Pertenhoff. The letter announc.
ing Emperor Williams accession was
written in Russian. and recalled to the
czar the words of old Kaiser William,
when Oh his death-bed he urged his sue
cessors to maintain friendship with Rus
sin. The letter was very friendly In its
tone, and points to pslicy of close
alliance with the cgar for the mutual
interests of Russia and Germany. Politi-
cal Europe is anxiously awaiting the out
come of the royal visit, and some wise
heads pretend to see us result oond be-
tween the emperors which presages no
good for Austria or Hungary.

wsrLrAm's PROPOSED VISIT.

LONDON, June 80 Some of the French
newspapers, which are never at loss to
Rscribe some ocenlt motive to the hap
peIings of their German neighbors, are
limiting that the real reason for the visit
of Emperor William to the car is that
Bismarck has become alarmed at Rus
sia's strength and evident purpose to
force war in which Germany will be
obliged to take part. They claim that
in order 10 conciliate the czar, ant, place
Russia, the iron chancellor decided that
royal visit-the highest honor that
could be paid the czar must be under
