| Edward Donlin who died recently,
was one of natures noblemen. Quiet,
transformations in manner, he had heart
that was always in the right place. He
loved the country Of his birth An Irish
man he was in the truest sense OF the
term.

Let us have no division in the Dem
ocratic ranks. Mayor Ames, John F..
Meagher, or whatsoever may be the
nominee of the Democratic party in the
next gubernatorial campaign cannot
afford to have enemies outside OF the
Republican fold. P. H. Kelly has al
| ways been true blue Democrat end the
part he has taken in the past is q
pretty good proof Of his loyalty III the
future. A strong pull and pull alto
gether in the next campaign will bring
success. Otherwise, the party will be
routed ;ss it should be.

The work OF finding out where Phil
Sheridan WAS born goes CALAMITY on.
This, too, after both mother and sou
have declared that Albany, N. T., was
his birthplace After an honorable life
of some 81 years, it would look as
though phil's word should be accepted
without having TO make sworn affidavit
to the fact.
We don't imagine the Republican
party will take any advice from Demo
cratic sources, but really there isn't
any harm in suggesting to the &. 0. p. q
strong ticket -one that we would have
to get up and dust to defeat. Here it
is For President, Walter q. Gresham,
of Indiana for vice president, Chaun-
cey M. Depew, of New York.
Elk State Senator James O'Brien, Of
Caledonia, douston county, has been
invited to deliver the sixth in number
of the '>people's Course of Popular Lee
tuges and Entertainments at Ander-
sens Opera House, Spring Valley, on
the evening of the 18th. Mr.. OHrien
has accepted, and has chosen for his
subject, Gladstone and Ireland.''

The Globe reporter misquoted Officer
Simon McNplty, wherein chat gentle
man is made to say that Gen. Phil
Sheridan was born IN Ireland. Simon
knew something of Thomas Sheridan,
who claimed TO be relative of Little
Phil" and who, with Officer McNulty,
served term in prison together in Ire
land in behalf OF their country's cause.
AS to Gen. Sheridan's birth, however,
he would politely pass. .

me as the head of it and not with unln-

The call which he makes so
much fuss about was received at
