He is the only son and the pride of his

I've can always tell three days ahead of

81 any magnitude the boys hair will
begin to kiniS, and in an incredibly

short curls in front, which remain in

still kept curlcd, which satisfied his

relieved, as they we're satisfied that tho

In ringing letter from Paris to a
young Republican of Des Moines, Gen.
j. S. Clarkson, president of the Repub-
lican National League, urges the utili-
cation of the social and literary ambi-
ton of every intelligent neighborhood
by organizing Republican Clubs of So
cial and literary as well as politica
character. This is the work to which
the National League Executive Com
mittee at its last meeting decided to
address its energies. The hunger OF
communities for social life has been
one of the prime foundations of the
Farmers Alliance, and Mr. Clarkson
has seen its operations in Iowa with
clear vision, since he advocates meet
ing them with counter organizations of
the same kind. In declaring that there
should be at least 900 clubs organized
in Iowa this year, he points out what
should take place, not only in Iowa
but, proportionately to the Republican
vote, in every state in the Union.

The Ohio Republican state conventio,

The Ohio Republican state convention
was held at Columbus yestesday and
and there is no doubt that Major Me-
Kinley was nominated for governor
without opposition. His election would
seem to be as much matter of fact as
his nomination, for among the younger
generation of statesmen he is the most
popular and the widest known, and in
him as the Detroit Tribune well says,
the Republican party recognizes the
best type of party leader-a man of
brains, of clean life, of high principles,
one willing to fight day and night for
the party and too, one who depends on
the justice of his cause and the sound
ness of his argument to win the success
he deserves. The whole Republican
party is honored by such nominations.

The count of the cash in the vaults of
the treasury consequent to the recent
change in the Office of the treasurer
has so far resulted in the discovery of a
discrepancy of Sl.00, which will proba-
bly, be found. This is missing from a
bag of silver in vault containing
nearly $40 OOO. OOO The bag broke open
by its own weight and the decay of the
canvas, and its contents were scattered
among the other bags in the vault.
