Graham Talks.

CHICAGO, October 15.-The iuvestigs-
tion into the methods of the jury bribers
is temporarily at a stand still to-day. The
efforts Of the State are now directed to-
ward finding cut the leader Of the con
spirscy. Higher game is bound to come
down, so at least States Attorney Longs-
necker processes to believe. The connec-
ton between Kavsnaugh and the minor
conspirators and that between Ksyanaugh
and John Graham have already been estab-
lished. II now remains to be discovered
who is behind Graham. That there
is such man no one connected
with the prosecution doubts though baked
for a time in tina investigation OF the plot.
Other lines Of inquiry are being carefully
followed and it is believed that these will
eventually lead 10 the detection of the
man who has been the prime mover in the
conspiracy.
NO OTHER INDICTMENTS
in connection with the bribery conspiracy
are expected o-dsy, as the grand Jury is
engaged in the hearing of ordinary casas.
Thomas KayaDaugh, ofthe indicted menin
the jury bTibiDg case, was released on bail
by Judge Baker, this morning. The bond
was fixed st S. 900, the same as the amount
ia the other cases.

well known, and there never was time
when in the interest Of coed government
and national prosperity they were more
needed. The condition of political affairs
is such that the attention of ali true Demo
Gratis sheuld be directed to the enforce
menE of the distinctive principles of the
party, and in my opinion, it is
no time for search after makeshifts and
temporary expsdients. We, as q party are
fairly enlisted in the cause Of the people
and patriotism, duty, and party success
require that We should be consistent and
eteldfsst All personal ends and selishness
should be subordinated. l confidently
xpeet, that in the work we have in hand
our Democratic societies will exhibit az

Death entered our quiet healthy town on

and was bright lovely child, the Joy and
comfort of her parents and loved by all who
knew her; but that dreadful disease so fatal
10 the little ones, membranous Group, fas-
tened Its deadly fangs upon her tender
little form and in q few hours it Ind done
its fatal work. Her parents cherished the
fond hope that in n few short year.
their dear little allie would develop into a
beautiful bushing maiden, but these fond
hopes are forever blighted,. for that littlc
form lies to-day mouldering to dust in the
lonely cemetery at Gilead church. While
their fond hopes are blasted they have the
consolation of knowing that the spirit Of
their sweet child is vi it'll It's Saviour in hen

OF about ten days, the summons came TO tho
young and tender bud that it must bloom in
heaven. 1t was dark hour when thus for
the fifth time, shadows of death fell around
the dwelling of this happy and aflectionate
family. The grief which bore so heavily
upon the home circle has also carried sad
ness to many other loving hearts, and called
Tor the tear of sympathy and sorrow over
