One of the greatest literary hits of the
season IS the story of Baby Bunting, or
the Alphabet of Love-" by Laura Jean
Libbey, which is at present being puE-
Hshed in the columns Of The New York
Family Story Paper. The paper con-
taining the opening chapters of this
wonderfully popular romance appeared
on the news stands this morning. The
tremendous rush for that number by
the young ladies of the town shows
clearly that the publishers have struck
bonanza. The Family Story Paper is

The suggestions thrown out by the
WESTERN APPEAL in the last issue in ref
erence to the sending of Colored man
as one Of the delegates at-large, to the
Republican National Convention, seems
to have struck responsive chord in
the bosom of everybody. Several
Well-known political wire pullers, now
of course-claim that they had already
been discussing the subject; but, be
that as it may, there will be no particu-
lar gainin gettinga patent Oh the sug-
gestion, unless there is something made
out of it. Several very prominent Dem
ocrats, who subscribe for the AppEAL
have been heard to say, that is just the
thing the Republicans ought TO do. Of
course we would not 60 to Democrats to
learn the best way to conduct a Repub-
lican compaign, but the reason the idea
met with favor among the Democrats is,
because they think the Republicans will
not accord any such position to Color
ed man if the Colored people ask for it,
and they will then have the refusal to
make capital of. We believe that if the
matter is brought properly before the
people they will cheerlully accord the
position to us. At 4 meeting of Colored
Republicans, which was held since the
suggestion was offered, the subject was
discussed and the unanimous senti-
ment was, that we should join hands
and work for that end. The time is
short, the 10th of May will he here very
soon, and we must be active in our
work. The APPEAL )es not favor any
particular individual, but the man must
be one of well-known honor and in
tegrity who will bring as much honor to
the position as the position will give us.
There are several such men in the
state.

UNCLE SANS DEFICITS.
The Two Houses Reach an Agreement
on the Appropriation Bill.


on the Appropriation Bill
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-The conferees on
the general deficiency bill have paved the
way for an agreement on all the remaining
points of differences. though the action has
not become final The provisions to pay
the remainder of the years salary to the
family of Chief Justice Waite and to pay
an extra years salary to the widow OF
Lafayette E. Daney, of the internal reve-
nue. service, are to be struck out as is also
the clause pertaining to the laws of the
United States over No Mans Land. The
Senate is induced to recede on the last made
provision to save the bill, 1t being under
stood that the point of "no quorum" would
be raised by some one in the House if that
clause remained in the bill.
BUILDINGS AT SALT LAKE CITY.
1t is probable that an agreement will be
reached before Mondays session begins pro-
viding for a continuance of the work of
constructing buildings for the Woman's
Christian Home at Salt Lake City.
The clause providing for an investigation
of the work on the aqueduct tunnel has
been struck out with the understanding
that the concurrent resolution, also passed
by the House, shall be passed by the Senate
on Monday. The deficiency bill will merely
contain a provision appropriating money
for the expenses of the investigation.

telegraphed to Surgeon General Hamilton
from Fernandina, as follows:
There is much more sickness, principally
among the negroes, than is thought or reported.
The Howard Association has no more means
than is necessary for the care OF the sick and
needy. The numoer OF the latter Is large and
increasing. There are many infected houses
and much infected bedding here which should
be fumigated, disinfected, and some destroyed.
Will you furnish means for funigation, dsinfec-
tion and compensation for articles destroyed,
thereby greatly diminishing the danger OF
trouble in the future. especially next year.

Two Estimates OF the Number the
Democrats Will Get.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-Ex-Minister to
Liberia Taylor says that 40,0OO colored
men will vote for Cleveland and Thurman.
Recorder James M. Troder says he thinks
this is not an exaggeration. Both account
for the change they predict in the voting of
the colored men by saying that the colored
men are awakening to the fact that it is to
their interests to divide between the two
parties. and that they will get more con-
sideration in every way. Frederick Doug
lass, Perry Carson and others deny the
statement. They say that there will not be
5000 colored votes cast for Cleveland and
Thurman,

ATLANTA, GA, Oct 6.-Messrs MCGEE,
Martin and others residing in the viciuitV
of the Southern phosphate works asked for
an injunction before Judge Marshall Clarke
in chambers to-day TO restrain the company
from manufacturing its products on the
ground that the operation of the enterprise
was injurious to the health and vegetationl
The compla!nants introduced twenty-three
witnesses to sustain their prayer for
an injunction, all of whom expressed
the opinion that health and vegetation suf-i
fered by reason Of the company's process of
manufacturing. Maddox, Rucker 81 CO.
and j. s.. Clark, the proprietors Of the coml
pany. introduced sixty-six witnesses in
rebuttal Of the testimony for the complains
ants. Some of these witnesses expressed the
opinion that the health Of the people In
that vicinity had been improved rather
than impaired by these works, and that
vegetation was not injured. Judge Clark
refused to grant an injunction, and inti1
mated that the case was one that should go
to Jury.
