THE Columbus Press, an Independent
Democratic newspaper, is into squabble
of.rather large dimensions with Governor
Campbell over a purported speech the
Governor was to have delivered at a
meeting to have been held at Columbus
a couple of weeks ago, to protest against
the passage of the Federal Election law.
The meeting for some reason was post
poned, and the Press asserts that it was
done to shut off the Governors wind.
1t further says that the character of the
speech coming to the ears of the Demo
cratic leaders, they saw disaster and
smelled holy racket, and took the
above method to avoid it. The speech
was of an inflammatory character, re-
plete with defiance of National authority,
breathed revolution and snorted fire, and
declared his intention to resist the work
ing of the law, 'over the dead bodies of
the State militia" He called on other
Governors to take the same action and
withal ripped, roared and ranted. The
report says the Governor is fired with
ambition to boost himself into the
Presidential nomination in 1892, and
seized this method of hosting himself
into popularity with the South. The
Governor denies the allegation, and the
Press states its willingness to produce
its authority, which it claims to be the
very best, as soon as Governor Campbell
demands it; but the willy "Jeems" has
made no formal demand. 1t is serious
charge on the Governor, and proves very
interesting, coming as it does from one
of his own party organs. The meeting
came off on Saturday night, and was
very mild and rather sorrowful affair."
James made very tame and gentle
speech.
THE Democratic press is not going
wild over the reply to Y. NJ. C. by
"Judex, A Democratic Leader" in the
August number of the North american
Reoieo0. They eagerly grasped all of
X. NJ. C's arguments and heralded them
far and wide, but when IA Democratic
Leader" supports Speaker Reeds view
of the rules of the House, the dose is too
bitter and nasty to mention.

AN EPIDEMIC OF BLOODY FLUX
Last summer the tiux ragged here to a
fearful extent. About five miles north of
here at the Whiteside grave yard there
were five victims of this dreadful eisease
buried in one day; the doctors could do
nothing with the disease. When my fam
lily were taken, went to Walter Brothers
of Waltersburg, and told them the situa-
ton; they said give Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy-that they
had sent out several hundred bottles into
the infected district, and "every day we
hear how this medicine is curing them;
so far we have not heard of it failing in a
single instance" / went to giving it and
could soon see the good effects, and cure
was the result. Anyone in doubt about
these facts may write to mel. G. Ellis,

Two men walked rapidly down

entered one OF the prominent bank
ing institutions. They were sturdy,
heavy-set men. Both kept their
eyes roaming from side to side. l
followed them into the bank. The
man with the satchel sat down, drop
ping the bag carlessly on the floor.
The other went into the receiving
teller's enclosure, reached down into
his breast pocket and extracted q
package of bills. These were hastily
counted and the two strangers left.
The teller damned the bills into an
envelope, sealed 1t and pitched it
into a safe, afterward closing the
door in perfunctory manner. The
entire transaction occupied less than
two minutes. Then the teller turn
ed to me and said
"How much do you think was in
that package"
"Why, about $780,
eyes, and little more. 1t con-
tanned one million, four hundred and
forty odd thousand"

$4,000 bills. There is no great
danger in carrying notes of that de.
