THE NEWS OF THE NoMINATI0N.-
While there was no excitement, an
cseer interest was manifested by many
rcTsons in the proceedings OF the re-
-mlblican national convention at Mir
n@rapolis. Late in the afternoon, when
i. was known that balloting had begup,
Mo interest became deep-seated, ard
his Office and those OF the telegraph
lines were visited by numbers anxious
70 learn the result. Shortly after five
o'clock the GAZETTE (the first paper in
the state ofYirginia to herald the name
oflhc successful contestant appeared
nthe street and brought the ordeal
toacICsc with the news that President
Harrison had been chosen on the first
ballot rs the standard-bearer Of the
marty in the campaign of 1899. Some
disappointment was expressed by the
admirers Of the man from Maine, while
cyultation was manifested by others
who had championed the alleged
claims o fthe present incumbent of the
White House for another term. In a
short time the GAZETTE had circulated
the news from II end of the city TO
the other. and before dark everyone
knew that the plumed knight had been
turned down again and the hopes Of
several ether would-be candidates
crushed for four more years at least.
The additional intelligence that White
law Reid was to be the tail of the kite
excited no particular surprise, and in
terest is nov gradually drifting away
from Minneapolis toward Chicago,
which is soon to be the theatre of an
other political contest. The general
impression i'll this city is that the re-
publican ticket is "a weak one

THE MARKET was again well supplied
this morning with everything required
to make up a good meal, and as the
season advances the prices OF summer
vegetables, &c, are declining. There
are no changes in the prices of butchers
meats, and fish sold at about the same
prices that have prevailed for the past
few weeks. Butter was lower and sold
to-day at 1Sa25c. per pound for country
prints. Eggs are scarce and brought

Smooth Pleads Insanity.

In the Smooth murder trial in Char
lestown, w. Va, yesterday the defence
continued testimony by introducing cor
respondence. When the letters were
offered the States Attorney objected,
and Judge Faulkner took the admis-
sion under consideration. He finally
admitted them only as evidence of in
sanity, and not as to the statements
contained in them, and for no other
purpose would they be proper evidence.
4 letter to Charles Terrell is of such a
nature as to render it unfit for publica-
ton.
The letters were not read to the jury,
but copies were given them. After the
introduction of the letters the defense
rested its case. In rcbuttal of the plea
of insanity, the State introduced fifteen
witnesses, who testified substantially
that they had known Smooth for many
years, and had seen and conversed with
him frequently during the 5 months
prior to the homicide, and that they
had noticed nothing strange or unusual
in his conduct or conversation. They
regarded him q sane man. Benjamin
Hartzcl testified to a conversation with
accused before the homicide, in which
he asked witness if he had not seen the
prisoner in a compromising position
with Miss Fcrrcll. Witness said he had
not. Accused said: II thought if you
had you would say so. That would
give me a hold on them to let her mar
rs me, and if she does not marry me l
will circulate reports injuring her char
acter." Witness did not believe &c
cused.
T. l.. Weltzheemcr narrated a con-
vcrsation with the prisoner last fall,
when the prisoner said he had been in
innate with Miss Terrell, and that he
wanted to marry her, and she wished
to marry him, but her friends inter-
| fcred. Accused said he was going to
| have the matter settled before long and
if he could not marry her he would
send himself to h, and her too.
Under severe cross-examination, wit
ness said he did not like to tell every
statement Of prisoner il that CONVERSE
| ton, because they concerned her char
acter. Witness did not believe these
statements.
Rev. j. K. Tanhorn testified to a con-
versation with prisoner, when he said
that he and Miss Terrell had met with
a misfortune. Witness replied he did
not believe it, and if it were true, time
would tell, and then, perhaps, her pa
rents would consent to the marriage.
Accused said he would not marry her
then. Witness declined to intercedc
for Smooth with her parents. He be-
licved accused sane at that time.
Defendants counsel moved to strike
out the testimony of these three wit
nesses, on the ground that it was irrel-
evant in rebuttal, but the court over
ruled the motion, and defense ex-
copied.
Jacob Terrell, grandfather of the de-
ceased, testified that his own hmily
and the parents of deceased made no
objections to prisoners attention to
Miss Terrell that she discarded him,
so far as witness knew, of her own
will.
This closed the testimony in the case.
Argument will begin to-day. Public
interest has not ceased, and the crowd
yesterday was probably larger than any
former day. Smooth vas attended in
court by three brothers and three sis
tiers and Rev. Mr. Deck, ofHagerstown,
a friend of the family.

DEPUTY UNITED STATES SENATOR.

DEPUTY UNITED STATES SENATOR.
October 3, 1877, Mr.. George T.
Anthony, then governor of Kansas,
agreeable to chapter 176, Republican
laws of 1877, contracted with and sp-
pointed Mr.. Samuel j. Crawford,
deputy United States senator. The
laws of the United States not provid-
ing any compensation for a deputy
senator, said special law provided
that Mr.. Crawford should be paid
the same commission on all amounts
due to the state of Kansas by the
United States government, which
were'collectable, that Brigham Young,
Of the Mormon hierarchy, had COL
lected from his followers. 1t is gen.
orally understood that Mr.. Crawford
insisted on being allowed the same
commission that Pharaoh collected
from the Egyptians, but Governor
Anthony claimed that 10 per cent.
was more than he, Anthony, made
out of the New York school funds.
The money collected of the United
States government, including the
Ualue of school lands donated to the
state by the national government,
since the appointment of Deputy
Senator Crawford, aggregate
8, ,47s,92 commission at 10 per cent S147,S92IO
BY amount Of commissions paid...... 13O,S45 90
Balance due June 80, 1S9O.... 5 S17,O47.1O
From the foregoing it will be seen
that the average annual salary Of
Deputy Senator Crawford is $11,53O
per annum.
For iacts above set forth, see page
SIS, auditors report for 1889 and
1890.
The advocate., 1892-06-15

CHARLEY CURTIS does not drink, smoke or
chew. He was born IN Kansas, and bis postofice
address, after the 4th Of March, will be Wash
ingtOn, d. C.-EmpOriG Gazette.
The ADVOCATE does not wish to
make campaign against Mr.. Curtis
on any personal ground. The dis
tinotive differences in the policies of
the Republican and Peoples parties
constitute sufficient basis for a cam
paign, and to these we would confne
our attention if Republican journals
and politicians permit us to do so.
We advise them to leave the person
ality of candidates out of the discus
sion.
We shall, in due time, submit to
Mr.. Curtis q few fair questions, to
which we shall ask and expect fair
answers, as basis for campaign
upon principle, and any other kind
of a campaign is to be deplored, and
will not be engaged in unless forced
by the Republican party.
The advocate., 1892-06-15

AMONG the announcements of pre-
liminsry arrangements for the Mime
apolis convention, as published in Re-
publican papers, we find the following:
The lsoles OF the city, who are acting in con.
nectiOn with the committee on reception, have
organized what is known as the Woman's Clean
ing club. AT the head OF this, as president, is
Mrs. Winston, wife Of the mayor Of Minneapolis,
and, by the way. the first white child born in
Minneapolis.
The above would seem to indicate
that the Republican ladies of Mime
spolis occupied about the same rels-
ton to the Republican convention
that Rev. B. II. Foster, of Kansas,
was said to occupy to the American
house of representatives. The ladies
were certainly assigned a very
dignifed and honorable position by
the local committee of arrangements,
and undoubtedly feel very proud oft
The advocate., 1892-06-15

REPUBLICAN papers are laughing at
the democrats for supposing that the
Peoples party, like both the old par
ties, placed the Offices above princi-
pie. Wonder will they feel SO elated
when they find in November that the
same devotion to principle all over
the state has brought victory to the
Peoples party.
