Representative Matson, who is the
Democratic candidate for governor of
Indiana, was asked what chance
Harrison had of carrying that State.
He said: 81 don't see how he is
going to do it. Gray's majority in
1884 was Z, 392 and Cleveland's 6531.
Where Harrison is to get the votes
to overcome this majority, 1 cannot
imagine. He is distasteful to the
Greenback and Labor element who
hold the balance of power" al
Owing to the obstructive tactics of
the Republicans in the House and
the slowness of the Republican
Senate it became necessary to pass a
joint resolution extending the old
appropriations for 80 days into the
new fiscal year.
Mr.. Mills says that his tariff bill
will be passed by the House before
the first of August. He says further
that he has received hundreds of let
tiers from Republicans in all sections
of the country commencing the bill.
| perfectly agree with Mr.. Mills, with
the exception of the date. / think it
will be later before a final vote is
reached on the bill, but there is little
doubt now remaining Of its final pas
sage. Revenue reform has made
gigantic strides forward since the st.
Louis Convention. r
Next Saturday night Washington is
to have a monster Cleveland and

The Republican delegates to the
Chicago Convention are still apollo

General Sheridan has been careful

where he has summer cottage which
has just been completed. He sailed
on the U. S. S., Swatara, rendered by
the Secretary of the Navy. While
the sailors were carrying him on a
stretcher up the gangway, a photo
grapher attempted to take an instan-
taneous picture of the scene but was
prevented by Captain MCGOWAN, who
threw his cap over the lens. The
General looked very much emacia-
ted and almost as pale as his pillow.
Some quite lively discussions have
taken place in the House of Repre-
sentatives over the tariff bill in the
past few days, and the revenue re-
formers came off best every time.
Senators Allison, Sherman, Man.
derson, Colquitt and Berry have been
appointed committee to represent
the Senate at the Ohio Centennial ex.
position which opens the 4th inst
AT the last minute Mr.. Cleveland
found that it was impossible for him
to attend, although he was particular
ly anxious to be there.

Government Departments here will

To hear Republican howl it i;
only necessary to tell him that the

The Senate spent the greater part O
the past week over the River ant
Harbor bill. Senator Cockrell took
occasion to make the statement, dur

FROM the proceedings Of the Re-
publicon county convention held
here last Monday, which we pub
fish iii anothercolumn it will be seen
that they have determined to put out
a full county ticket, and that another
convention will be held for that
purpose on the Dist. With a Demo
cratic majority of twelve hundred
votes in the county, of course they
can have no hope of electing any
county officer. What can the object
of this move be then, further than
organization of their forces for the
Congressional fight? They also
instructed their delegates to use all
their influence for the nomination of
Mr.. r. Kennedy for Congress. Mr..
Kennedy is personally known to
nearly every voterin Warren county,
and should he receive the Republican
nomination he will undoubtedly
more than carry his party strength
in this county; how much more
depends upon the nomination made
by the Democrats. In our opinion
if the Democrats fail to nominate
Hon. John r. Neal they will foolish
ly throw away their only chance for
success. Neal is the strongest man
the Democrats have in the District,
he has made us a Congressman whom
the whole District can well afford to
be proud of and it would be Il short
sighted policy not to keep him there.

it shall be labeled every week for
six months with the names of the
Democratic nominees in big type.
We will get there with the true blue

THE mere fact that a wrong was
permitted to 60 unrebuked at the
proper time does not argue that 81
lence should be forever afterward
maintained. The voting of this
county as unit for Mr.. Snodgrass
in the Congressional convention is an
imposition over which the Demo-
Gratis who favor other men have a
perfect right to kick, and they are
going to do it. Even if Mr.. Snod-
grass had a majority Of the county
for him, which we unhesitatingly say
he has not, it would be a manifest
injustice to the minority to strangle
them in convention. The over-zeal-
GUS efforts of Mr.. Snodgrass' friends
may secure him the nomination, but
they will fall far short of securing his
election to Congress. You can hear
on all sides, rom all parts of this
county, that Mr.. Snodgrass cannot
carry the party strength, and feeling
thoroughly convinced that his nomi-
nation will bring certain defeat to
the Democracy Of the District, we
streuuonsly oppose any action on the
part Of the Democracy of Warren
county which will bring about such a
consummation. We hold the success
of The party paramount to the person
al ambitions of any seeker after office

home in Nashville. A wire was
stretched to Mrs. Folks residence,
connecting it with the machinery
hall of the great exposition. At a
given signal from Cincinnati, Mrs.
Polk touched a button and the cleo
trio current which flashed over the
wires opened the throttles of the
great engines and put all the wheels
of machinery to revolving.
If THE question could be submit
ted to the Democratic voters of this
county, in primary election, we feel
perfectly satisfied that Neal would
beat Snodgrass and Bates both, and it
is simply an outrage for the county
to be voted as a unit for Snodgrass.
1t is all right and just that Mr.. Snod-
grass should have fair proportion OF
the county, but no more. From all
the information we can get from va
rious portions of the county, Neal is
the first choice of large majority Of
the county, and with very many OF
them Bates is second choice in prefer
ence to Snodgrass.

Philadelphia Record.
Philadelphia has for six months been
partially supplied with potatoes from
Scotland and Ireland. Shipping potatoes
to America is something like sending
Goals to New Castle. 1t is not only being
done, but the foreign potatoes are
cheaper than the home product. The
shipments from Glasgow to Philadelphia
BY the Allsn Line since December have
amounted to $4,000 bags. Shipments by
this line, due on the 18th, amount to
$500 bags. The American Line has
brought over 20, 900 bags of Irish pota-
toes by way Of Liverpool. This Is o
total shipment by these two lines of over
100000 bsgs or 800, 900 bushels. This is
equal to 600 carloads since December.
A prominent potato dealer said yester-
dsy: "This extraordinary condition OF
Affairs is due to the shortness of the
potato crop in New York and elsewhere
IN the United States. There Is duty of
u cents bushel On potatoes, but ut
present prices, about so cents q bushel,
the Scotchmen can send their potatoes
over here at very good profit, even after
paying the freight. II it WAS not for the

tortoise shell and some of them ebony
most of them were mounted in gold and
silver. What q luxury boxes are. There
are always such Let of things to go in
them, and really one cannot have too
maLy of them. You open box to look
for hairpins and fad three wells, four or
i've caramels, two cigarettes that you
promised to keep for somebody, and
note that you want hidden, and stick
Of sealing wax. Now that box was dedi-
Gated especially to wells. The hairpin

to postage stamps, some old rings, q clip

well you looked in your Worth frock, and
some ists thst you think you are going to
