HOLDING ON TO GRESHAM.

Just what Chicago sees in the
GRESHAM boom to hold on to it so tena-
ciously is a mystery. Judge GREsH-
ANS fate as presidential candidate
was settled when Indiana elected del
egation pledged to HARRISON. In fact,
Judge GRESHAM'S fate as Republican
presidential candidate was settled long
before that-aS far back as the time
when he decided a railroad case against
JAY GOULD. So why Chicago should
hug GRESHAM to her bosom, and like
RACHEL mourning for her first born,
refuse to be comforted unless GRESHAM
is nominated, is singular infatuation
that no one can explain. 1t is true
that Judge GRESHAM lives in Chicago
most of the time, but so does Bob LIN
COLIN and CHARLIE FARWELL and a
host of others who would give the shirts
Off of their backs to be careSSed as
GRESHAM is. 1t is possible that Judge
GRESHAM has promised the Chicago
people, in case he is elected, to put a
man at the head of the postoffice depart
ment who will fix the schedule for
fast mails, so that Chicago will get the
bulge on the rest of the Western coun-
try. But JOHN SHERMAN would make
the same promise in consideration of the
support of the Chicago claQuers to give
him gallery boom when the convention
assemblies. In fact, Chicago is in pretty
fair condition to extract all the promises
she wants to from any Of the candidates
if she will agree to pack the convention
galleries in their interest. This makes
it all the more ineXplicable why Chicago
should hold on to GRESHAM after his
own state has deserted him, and every
body else has quit talking about his can
didacy.
Still Chicago's fidelity to good man
is to be commended. 1t has the appear
ance of being an earnest but vain effort
to work the Republican party up to a
higher standard in the selection of can-
didates than it has exhibited for great
many years. The trouble with Judge
GRESHAM is that he is too good man
for the ringsters who will manipulate
the Republican convention.

they came up with united dele
cations. There will be no one
to contest Mr.. CLEYELAND's NOM
nation for the first place on the
ticket, and as things now stand there is
no use in any one attempting to contest
Gov. GRAY's nomination for the second
place. Gov. GRAY may not be the
strongest man that Indiana could have
presented, but he is the one that Indiana
instructs for, and that settles all con-
troversy over it. If GRAY suits Indiana
the rest of the country will be satisfied
with the choice. The ticket will be
CLEVELAND and GRAY, and the plat
form will be the presidents last annual
message. And the result will be an
overwhelming victory.

NO REDUCTION,
Rates Will Not Be Reduced at
Present

CHICAGO, April 26.-The general
managers of the railways interested in
Northwestern traffic met here to-day to
consider the proposition of the Chicago,
Burlington q Northern road to reduce
rates Oh through business from New
York to Minnesota points. The lines i'll
the association were all opposed to tho
reduction, and agreed to make no
change in the present rates Oh sea-
board traffic without giving ten days
notice in advance of such change. They
further agreed that no notice should be
given until after May l, if at all, thereby
pledeing themselves to maintain the
present through rates until May ,, ut
least. The Burlington IL Northern,
which is bound by no association ties,
declOsed its intention of reducing rates
to the basis already proposed, nOtwith-
standing the refusal of the competing
lines to do the same, and the repre-
sentatiyeS of the $500" announced that
they would be compelled to meet the
rates of the Burlington ~ Northern.
The new rates on the latter road will go
into effect Nav 1.

him that the walters are as efficient and
good-natured as they are after coming

sitting in the parlor of Mrs. Cuthbert

During gubernatorial canvass in AL

''My friends and fellow citizens, /

in this state for nothing. You don't

Now, you don't want man who would
have to be held in the governors chair.
You want sober and upright man. and
not man who never looks upward eX-

Those Lying Grasshoppers.

Perham Bulletin.
Our people are justly indignant over
the publication in a number of Eastern
papers of a report that grasshoppers had
Matched out in this vicinity in large
numbers, and also that our people were
in straitened circumstances and in
need of help. A letter was also written
to Gov. McGill by one G. d. G. Williams,
the champion letter writer of the North
west, stating that the hoppers were here
by the millions, and that bushels of
eggs could be found in almost every
square foot in this vicinity, and asking
aid for the people of this place. To say
that the letter was gross outrage and
libel is putting it mild, and for which
our citizens were justly incensed. A
remonstrance was Immediately circu-
lated and signed by every business man
in the city, and sent to the governor, in
which it was stated that the facts in the
letter had been perverted, and drawn
for upon the putrid Imagination Of the
old fossil.

Revealed in a Dire am,


A. F. McNeal, a well-known citizen of
Rawson, Allen county, o., died on the
26th ult. after short illness. A strange
story connected with this fact is as well
authenticated as his death. On the
night of the 2Sth of January last he
dreamed that he had died and gone to
heaven. In the dream the date OF his
death, March 26, was firmly fixed upon
his mind. In the golden city of his
dream, Mr. McNeai met Mahlon Poven-
mire of Ada, an old acquaintance and
friend, and asked when he had left the
earth. POyenmire replied that he had
come to the eternal world week be-
fore. There were other circumstances
in the dream equally as strange, which
so impressed McNeai that the next moril-
ing when he aWoke in his usual good
health he reduced the details to writing,
and put the manuscript away in his desk,
where his wife found it and read it with
fear and trembling, but said nothing,
although it made an impression on her
mind which she could not efface. On
Monday, March 26, McNeal died exactly
as indicated in the dream, while Poyen-
mire had passed to the land of the I'M
known just a week before. Mrs. Nc
Neal is in possession of the manuscript,
dated Jan. 30. and containing the sub
stance of her husbands dream as above
