Williams and his fellow Republicans which they
intend to maintain until election night.
The Democrats are attempting to mislead the
workingmen by asserting that the prices OF the
necessaries Of life have been advanced since the
6 WIS but tine
other argument Of the Democrats is that the brew
en- and maltsters Of Buffalo will snffer by the IN
crease OF the duty upon Canadian barley but
the brewers and mnltsters have already learned Dy
experiments that they. Substitute American bar
ley for the Canadian barley and get 1t at cheaper
rate. They. therefore, are paying no attention
to Democratic arguments about the barley taa.
II is the plan Of both the political parties to bring
here eminent political speakers before the cam,
paim ends, and with them fight out the tarlfi
issue, which has become the predominant one OF
the canvass. It is possible that Congressman j.;
c. Burrows may come here for the Republicans
and Senator Carlisle for the Democrats.
The nominations for the Assembly have all been
made In Erie County. The Democrats have renom-
mated their three Assrmblymen. William F. Shee-

the Republicans have renominated one Of their

XINTH DISTRICT.


There a report cunningly circulated in New
Rochelle and towns there saturday, that
J. Thomas Stearns. the Republican candidate for
Congress in the XlVth District, had decided to with
draw In favor Of Alexander Taylor jr Upon the most
searching inquiry the OF the could not be
established but 1t believed to have been started by
some Of Mr.. Taylor's friends who had neglected to
obtain any authority from either Mr.. Searns or Mr..
Taylor for the statement. Mr. Stearns denies that he
has any intention of withdrawing from the canvass.
and. the contrary, he will work hard for his own
election. we'll for the rest OF the ticket and some
OF Mr.. Taylors friends declare him be too faithful
Republican to do anything that would Jeopardize the
chances OF electing Republican. even II the Demo

Mr.. stearns is q descendant Of two old Westchester
County families and he is well known and pcpu-
lar that there Is strong possibility Of redeemng
the district from the Democrats That he will run
ahead Of his ticket In the and the Twenty
fourth wards is pretty certain for when he ran for
Alderman In 1887 he cut the usual Democratic majority
of 500 down To 23O. There Is great dissatisfaction
among the letter class of Democratic voters with their
present candidate W. u. Stahlnecker, and they feel
that the district criminaly neglected by him in
the last session of Congress, when he was present only
about one day In seven.

See our trucks loading at midnight

not stop advertising; all can have the
secret. Our prices of Furniture drop
so fast that we must sell thirty per
cent. more goods each year to cover
the cost of greater bulk and distances
for the same value. An oak bedroom
suit that was s35 FIVE years ago is S1S,
and yet is better made and the work
men get more pay. A rocker that
started at $50, not three years ago, is
now s1S; we sold it with five per cent

some one can tell when or at what

HUMoRs OF THE TRIAL.

HUMOIS OF THE TRIAL.
There was some humorous things con-
nected with the trial which did much to
relieve the monotony of the stories of
how dead men and absentees voted. Mr..
Indicted Election Officer Mailly stopped
me in the street yesterday ana said in q
sad and melancholy manner: - THAT
wasn't right no how putin it in de
paper. dot was wild Tom Trotter at de
Court House; do you want to ruin my
character"
assured him would not attempt to
ruin his character, for was weary and
was looking for an easy job, and that
would make this correction.
While the court was having q recess on
Thursday, Mike O'Mara put in an APP
pearance. He greeted the four prisoners
In manner that said, "Don't you care,
boys, I'll be with you; let's have drink
for luck. !"
"Whatl" almost shouted Hart. Don't
you know that if any body should
see us drinking with you that jury in
there would hang uss Wait till we get
off. Mike"
1t must be said of this trial that never
in the history of the Court House has q
case been tried of so much Importance in
a more gentlemanly manner
From the first day to the present not
one single sneer, sarcasm or bitter retort
or mean insinuation has been made by
counsel. Everything has been quiet, re-
strained and dignified. Judge Lippincott
was dignity itself, and was treated with
every possible consideration by counsel
on both sides of the case. 1t is believed
that the arguments to be made Monday
will be such speeches as are seldom heard
in the court, and crowd that will pac
the room is anUiciDatod.

Llttle Kate,s Revised version.

Little Kate was one of those children

ing and amusing anecdotes. One Sunday
afternoon she came to her mother and
begged for a Bible story. Her mother
was reading, but Katie begged hard, and
at last said;-'.f you viii tell me Bible
story first, mamma, then will tell you q
real good one, too''
Her mother related the story of Samson
and the lion. and Of the bees which came
and stored thei: honey in the lions car
cass.
And now what is the Bible story you
are going to tell me?" she asked.
With perfect gravity Katie begsn at
the beginning and repeated the story
which had just been told to her, using al
most the same words. Her mother let
her 90 through it, and then said:-
But that is the verv story I told you,
Do you think that is fair?n

quickly. "this isn't the same story at all,
for my bees were humble bees. ~ Youths
