VIM, Hacker, the well known author and
writer on Freemasonry. is lying near death
at Shelbyville. Ind. For more than forty
years his works on Masonry have been stan

The eldest daughter of the United States
minister to England, Hon. Robert T. Lincoln
has been engaged to Charles Isham, of New
York, formerly Mr.. Lincoln's private secre-
tary. The wedding will take place In Lon
don In the coming autumn.
1t now turns out that the great Liberal
victory in England's North Cambridgeshire
election was due largely, If not chiefly, to q
woman. The pretty and courageous young
wife Of Arthur Brand, the successful candl-
date. rendered her husband invaluable
assistance" Mrs. Brand, who is an accom-.
plished musician, at the political meetings
frequently contributed her share to the
wooiHg of votes by singing In most touch
Ing manner her favorite songs between the
addresses" Other women helped. The
Primrose League, (which has been supposed
to be Tory organization, including many
lively dames-is said to have worked effec.
lively for Mr.. Brand.

The Argus is wrong In supposing that the
PRESS did not understand the true nature Of
the trade dollar. The PRESS pointed out
particularly the fact that the trade dollar
was not legal teuder. although for several
years 1t passed at its face value in this
country, because the government made it
interchangeable and therefore equally desir-
able with the other money of the country.
When the government ceased to make it SO
interchangeable, Its value fell rapidly, al
though intrinsically 1t is worth more than
the standard silver dollar. The point which
the PRESS wished to enforce was that when.
ever the government should be unable to
make the standard silver dollar interchange
able with the gold dollar, which is the basis
OF currency in all the great commercial ma.
lions, then the silver dollar would fall in
purchasing power, as the trade dollar did,
only to greater extent because it is of less
real value. This proposition the Argus
made no objection to yesterday; and we
hardly think 1t will make any serious effort
to cOntrOvert it,

Senator Stanford does not like the plank
In the Alliance platform which,demands that
the government shall take possession of all
railways. But the plank which demands
that the farmers shall take from the govern
ment all the money they want at per cent.
interest strikes him as all right. Yet the
first plank is the more reasonable of the two.
The reason that the Senator does not like it
Is that 1t proposes a confscation of his per-
sonal property. TO confiscate the contribu-
lions of the people at 2 per cent, year was
all right-but to confscate his personal
property that appears to the Senator quite
another thing.

Gov. Boies of Iowa, In his letter accepting

Next Tuesday is the date of the Kentucky
state election for governor, superintendent
Of schools, etc. There are three candidates
for governor in the field. John Young Brown,
the bumptious Democrat who declared that
the mission of the Democratic party was
second only TO that Of the Christian religion,
Andrew I. Wood, the Republican candidate
and Samuel b. Irwin. the Farmers nominee.
There is probably little likelihood that the
Republicans will win this year, although the
day when they are to triumph cannot be far
distant. Since the war Kentucky Republi-
cans have been increasing in numbers surely
and rapidly as is shown by the votes at the
Presidential elections:

In 1883 the Republicans carried forty-six

lucky. The eastern part of the state has al
ways been Republican as ha, the eastern
part of Tennessee But the middle and
western portions where slavery existed has
managed to dominate the politics of the en-
tire state. The election districts are so
gerrymandered that the Republicans have
only about twenty seats in the lower house
of the state legislature. A new apportion-
ment is one of the Issues in this election, and
the Republicans hope to make such Roadway
as to prevail upon the next legislature to
allow them at least ten more seats. But in
all probability the more Roadway they make
the worse their seats will be gerrymandered
away from them. In the hitherto strong
Democratic countries Of west Kentu cky the
Farmers Alliance is making considerable
Roadway, and has in 1t possibilities of ex-
tensiye changes. But probably 1t will not
cut great figure. as third parties have never
done much in Kentucky since the war. The
greenbackers cast about IL 900 iyotes in 1880
and In 1868 the prohibitionists managed to
pole some over 5000. In state where the
total vote reaches $4,000 the third party
votes are Insignificant percentages.
Gov. Fleming Of Florida has not yet given
Senator Call certificate of reelection, and
the chances are that he will not. Fleming
was opposed to Call throughout the long con-
test In the legislature, and he would be only
too glad to get some plausible pretext on
which to refuse him certificate. IL Flem-
ing refuses to sign Calls credentials, the
probability is that he will appoint Chipley,
who was Calls principal opponent in the
legislative contest, and that ChIpley and
Call will present themselves In the Senate
next December as rival claimants for the
senatorial seat. There is no room for doubt
that Call was legally elected and should re-
receive the certificate. II the Governor,
however, is after plausible pretext for
