THE FRAUD ACKNOWLEDGMENT.

During the last campaign the Re-
publican organs and managers denied
the charges Of wholesale corruption
and the lavish use Of money brought
against them by the Democrats.
Il was and is charged that HAREIsoN's
electlon\ was bought outright with
money furnished by the millionaire
tariff bere6ciaries of the Republican
party.
The corroborative truth is coming
out at Minneapolis. The hot and bitter
internal strife in the party is causing
prominent Republicans to tell impor-
tant truths about each other. For in
stance, a prominent Republican leader
Of New YORK, Editor WILLIAM BARNES,
Of Albany, who made speech before
one Of the delegations, gave a reason
why it would be difficult to carry New
York State this year for HARRISON.
He said:
at cost lJS million dollars to carry
the State four years ago, but loe can't CT
pee TO carry he state IN that l0aU this
time under the operation Of the Sdrton
ballot ldJv'
Here is a lat-footed acknowledgement
that New York's electoral vote and the
Presidency we're bought for HARRISON
in 1SSS aud that with an honest ballot
even that corruption fund of a million
dollars could not have carried New York
for HARRISON.
1t will be useless hereafter for Repub-
leans to deny that their party has won
by fraud and depends on nothing but
Doodle, corruption and fraud to carry
elections.
The truths Republican leaders are
uttering In the heat of the moment at
Minneapolis just now will not be for
gotten.

One Use Of National Conventions.
Rgefor gf0ba


A great national convention does
other work rs useful as the nomination
Of q president. IL serves TO develop ma
tional rather than merely local ideas.
and, so 20 speak, cOntinentalizeS its al
tendautS.
In country as large as the United
States our greatest national danger,
perhaps, is sect.OnaliSm. 1t was so in
all our history preceding the war, and
may be so again. In country of such
tremendous extent, with such 4 wide
diversity of interest, IL is not strange
that sectional animositieS should be
aroused 40 times and sectional preiu-
diceS become rampant.
There is no better or Surer way TO al
lay these animOSitieS and overthrow
these prejudiceS than the diffusion OF a
general knowledge OF the views OF the
entire country. In a national conven-
tiOn the delegate from Massachusetts,
comes in contact with the delegate from
California. They rub elbows, and the
friction Of contact removes the local
prejudiceS that have encruSted their
minds. Men who meet in this way
from widely different locations and con-
ditions are apt TO come together upon
the great middle ground of fairness and
truth, and TO avoid 1.-THE falsehood of
extremes"
National conventions do men good by
bringing them together and striking out
from the chaos Of their diverse opinions
an approximation TO agreement, or s,
any rate TO a mutually better under
standing.

Belmont county parties for possession of a
dead mans bones. The plaintiffs are
David Parks, his wife and three children
IS. Florence Watson, formerly wife Of
David Park, Jr., who died in Wheeling in
June. 1881. His home was Martin Ferry,
and Just before he died he requested to be
buried in Walnut Grove cemetery, in that
place. That cemetery has fallen Into dis
use now, and Mrs. Watson, though ac-
quiesing to her late husbands last request,
concluded recently to remove his remains
TO more suitable place. The Parks
heard. of this and secured an injunction re-
straining her, but she was too quick. She
removed the remains. The Parks now
sue to make her replace them.

SpeciaI Telegram to the Register.
CHARLEsrowN, w. VA, June S.-The
taking of testimony for the State in the
Smootz murder trial began to-day. The
State has fifty-four witnesses summoned
and the defense thirteen. A very large
crowd was in attendance and intense In
terest in the case was manifested; not even
standing room was left In the large court
room.
The State examined twenty-one wit
nesses to-day. The testimony showed that
Smootz shot Miss Susie c. Farrell through
the head and instantly killed her on Janu-
airy u. One witness who was standing
about ten yards from the prisoner and the
deceased at the time of the shooting, but
was prevented from interfering by threats,
said Smooth placed the revolver to
the top of he head and fired. An
other witness testified that he heard
Smooth say: "Yes, yes, have shot her"
The prisoner inquired Of witness if she was
dead, and being told that she was he ex-
claimed: "God help US both" The pris-
oner had been lover of deceased and shot
her because she refused to marry him.

Indifferent manner of the prisoner after
the shooting, and his threats to take his
own life. Two witnesses testified 10
threats made by the prisoner against the
life of Miss Terrell several weeks before
the shooting, and that these threats had
been communicated to her. From the
manner in which the prisoners counsel
cross-examined the witness it was plainly
to be seen that insanity will be their line
of defense. The, State has practically
made out its case and will close its evidence
tomorrow. During the days three sisters
and two brothers of the prisoner sat by
him in Court earnestly listening to the tes-
timony detailed by the witnesses. The
prisoner listened attentively but showed
no emotion

Another day has passed and still the
warning factions at Minneapolis seek to

Quay and CLARKSoS want to make sure
Of the $40, 600 the local committee prom
ised should the convention remain in
session four days. The fracas is likely
to last considerably longer than four
days. however, owing to the indecision
OF the Blaine men as to whether or not
they shall take advantage Of their
majority on the Credentials Committee
to unseat sixty or seventy Harrison del
egates and put Blaine men in their
places. They have decided not to re-
port until the lines are drawn so closely
that they can see their way clearly. So
that the probability is that no ballot
WIN be taken to-day.
Nothing was done yesterday but elect
MCKINLEY permanent chairman. The
choice means nothing, for all factions
had agreed on the apostle Of the high
tariff. II will, however, blow several
cubic feet more Of air into the quiet
and promising little boom which the
Ohio Governor has on hand, He will
be the most prominent object in sight
should the convention begin to look
around for a compromise candidate or
dark horse.
The situation has not changed in the
past "a hours. HARRISON holds his
original forces. He has gained none
and lost none. BLAINE and ALGER have
all the rest, and il nothing turns up in
the meantime BLAINE will doubtless be
nominated on the first ballot
Mr.. HAEEsON's only chance now is
the stampeding Of the Blaine forces.
Should the suspicion become aroused
that the Plumed Knight would not &C
cept the nomination and that the Blaine
leaders were simply using his name to
defeat HARRISON a revulsiOn Of senti-
ment would undoubtedly occur, and
HARRISON would secure the benefit.
The chances are, however, that BEN

1T PAYS TO BE POLITE.
A Clerk in the Tacoma POstOfflce Gets
Farm for Her Courtesy.

EdFnl iOT htE CbhAtOHys
SEATTLE, June THE old saying.
at pays to be polite" has been illus
tyated again in the Tacoma postoifice in
favor of Miss Margaret j. Reese, the
stamp clerk, pretty young woman OF
twenty-one. L. o. Landers, a grizzled.
grabbed, one-legged old fellow, has
fine farm on Vashon Island, near
Tacoma. Although he lives the life of
a hermit, it is believed that he is rich,
for the Vashon fruit lands are among
the most productive in the State.
and his farm has been under
cultivation for number OF
wears. He visits the Tacoma Office
every week or two, and he always asks
Miss Reese to get his mail, for she
went to considerable trouble in looking
up a letter for him once, and he thinks
no one else in the Office is To be trusted.
Some months ago, after she had
handed him his mail, he laid 5000 on
her counter, saying, That's for you"
Before the astonished girl bad compre-
heDded the act he was gone. She was
so indignant that she wept, and VIII
Landers returned she gave back the
money, telling him she supposed ne nad
forgotten it. He was much hurt, but
later he left at a local jewelry shop an
order for diamond necklace and ear
rings for her, and in explanation he
said to the shopkeeper that she was the
only person who had ever spoken kind
word to him.
The jewelry was refused also by Miss
Reese, but LanderS was not to be
thwarted in his desire to make her IN
derstand his gratitude, for day or two
ago he stumped into the postoffice and,
thrusting paper into her hand, re-
marked that it was something she could
not return. Miss Reese, on opening the
document, found it was deed for i've
acres of land, which, she has been told,
is worth $500 an acre. She is at present
in quandary as to what course she shall
pursue.

positors to Withdraw only 20 per cent of
their deposits In order to allow of the sue
cessful reconstruction of the bank
The suspension is largely due to the de-
probation in the value of silver to the con-
sequent increasing distrust in Great Brit

to the withdrawal of capital in the East,

A Great Success.

A lawn festival was given yesterday
evening from to o'clock at 9S North
Front street, for the benefit of St.
Luke's Chapel. The promoters of the
enterprise were Misses Helen Club,
Deluh Booth, Catherine Mitchell and
Helen Cowden. Ice cream, strawber-
ries, CONNECTIONS and flowers were the
attractions, and as prices were very
reasonable for everything, boquets SELL
ing as low as a cent, and but five cents
admission, a land Office business was the
result. Children flocked from near and
far TO spend their wealth.
The gross receipts from all sources
amounted to nearly ten dollars, a sum
that more than realized the widest ex-
pectations of the little folks, hence the
occasion was voted a grand success.
