Family a Puzzle.
Can The Greatest Journals in
the World be Believed Re-
garding the Steen Family?

So absorbing is popular interest IN
spiritualistic manifestation that hun
dreds of sleight of-hand performers
have taken to the road, OF late years,
and continue to humbug the people
with their so called medinmlstic en-
tertainments. Their deceptive meth
DDS disgust the thinking masses,
also retard genuine study and re-
search into the mysteries OF real sp!f-
ual phenomena. We have
carefully examined the criticisms
Of the leading papers of
the world-not copies OF the notices,
but the original prints--and we are
prepared to assert that it would be
absolutely impossible to secure such
comments from such sources by the
use Of influence or of money, and we
must, therefore, conclude that what
is said of Mile Stems performance
IS true. Now what do the unpur
chasable critics say? To reprint all
that has been said would fill every
page of this journal for months to
come, and we therefore give but a
few brief expressions of leading and
well known journals, that the read
er may judge of how the Steens have
been received elsewhere.
London neutrality-suspicious.
London Telegraph-Simpiy won

st. Louis Globe Democrat-Strange

Houston (Texas) Post-Almost

San Francisco Chronicle The
best exhibition of occult force Of

Detroit Free Press-Mlss Steen is

Detroit and gave perfect satisfaction.
New York Herald-The most mar
vicious, thrilling and exciting exhi-
bition ever introduced to the Amer
lean public.
Chicago Times--Miss Stems
seance at Hooley's last night was
most wonderful
The above should be sufficient to
satisfy all reasonable persons OF the
power possessed by Miss Steen, and
it should also provoke inquiry among
the most skeptical.
A feature of her performance, diff
fering from that of all others, is that
she resorts to no darkened room.
Her mediumship has been subjected
to the severest scientific tests by
Prof William Crooks, f. Il. s., and
other prominent scientists Of Eng
land Their frank endorsement
gave her great popularity and drew
large audience to the Crystal Palace.

her majesty, Miss Steen filed the

to see the wonderful Steens for some
time, as they sail for Australia on

New Announcements.

To-day Mr.. j. Il. May. of Clark town
ship formally announces his intention
to enter the race for tax assessor. One
so well known as is Jesse May scarcely
needs an introduction at our hands.
He is native Of Pope county, SO years
old, farmer, and an unflinchin e
democrat, who has prompt Y
responded to his party's call in every
struggle since reaching mans estate.
tie belongs, too, TO Clark township,
whose gallant democrats can ever be
relied upon. Active, well informed in
stock and farm values, he is we'll quail
fed, and if elected will make an effic-
lent officer.

WILSON TOWNSHIP.

Editor DEMoCRAT-The agricultural
interests of this section are as encour-
aging as we have ever seen them at this
season of the year. A more determined
effort on the part Of the farmers has
never been witnessed at any time by
our people.
While agricultural interest is engag-
ing the greater portion of our time we
are not unmindful of the fact that this
is again election year and that we, the
farmers, want straight Democratic
ticket elected to fill the important Ollie
es, and especially those that are of the
greatest interest to the people.
For Governor, Fishbaek and Eagle
seems to be most favorably spoken of
here.
Billy Woodruff is largely in the
majority for treasurer.
We barely know the candidates for
Attorney-general, consequently their
names are rarely mentioned.
John G.. Holland is favorably mem
toned for Auditor, and i. b. Chism is
decidedly the favorite for Secretary of
State.
For Representative two good men have
already declared themselves candidates,
but Capt. Jno. r. Homer Scott has
host of friends here who desire that ne
should represent Pope County in the
next legislature, being the oldest resi-
dent of Pope County as there is no man,
now living at the time lie came
If he will permit his name to be used
in that connection, we feel that he is
eminently qualified and that he would
perform the duties intrusted to him
with credit to himself and fidelity to his
constituency.
Some think the race for clerk will be
close, while others think not.
On account of the numerous candl-
dates for assessor it is greatly mixed !;
the one that gets the most votes viii
| likely be nominated.
We think it highly probable that the
County Judge and Sheriff will get the
nomination, as they have no opponents.
| Candidates for Treasurer are all good
and competent men, and every one III
this neighborhood Is asking the ques-
ton: which one shall / vote for?
! We hope the DEMOCRAT will keep ms
correctly informed, that our votes
may be cast for the purest and best men
that are candidates for the various Off
oes, both County and State.
Yours for Democracy,
LENoX.
