Mike Dwyer's stable for.lsss.

! M..F. Dwyer's stable, which won close
to SIT, 900 this year, will be very strong
in the all-aged class of 1892, says the
New York Tribune. He has only four
yearlings in his stable, and Hardy
Campbell, the trainer, said that he had
not done enough with them to form an
opinion as to their quality, but said
they might be good enough to race in
Jersey. Longstreet looks the great race
horse he is. There is not sign of the
injury which he received in his race
with Tenpy. His coat looks silky, and
he has taken on flesh and filed out in
grand shape so that it looks as if he
would be candidate for the Brooklyn
and Suburban handicaps and carry the
top weight.
Potomac is the largest horse in train
ing at the Brooklyn track. DIR. Shep-
herd had an interview with him, as he
had been fred. He is sound and all
right at present. His feet have grown
out and look as if they would stand the
test of training. Potomac stamped him.
self one of the very best 3-year-olds
that have appeared in any country. He
won his race this year under every dis
advantage. His feet were in ter
rible condition, and in trying
to favor them in his work
he struck himself on one side of his
tendons, which caused him to be thrown
out of training. His great size makes
it hard work to train him, as 30 much
weight may cause his feet to burst
again. Should he train and come to the
post fit and we'll next season, he should
pick up many races in 1892.
Kingston is in better condition than
ever before at this season of the year.
He has plenty of flesh and is full of
play, and has not shown particle of
soreness.
Banquet is picking up flesh, and will
be in it sure, his attendant says. He is
a gelding, and geldings improve with
age, SO it looks as if the boy was right.
"Old Bones," Raceland, was running
in paddock. He is looking as we'll as
ever. His severe campaign seems to
have agreed with him, as he was full
of play, and if he gains flesh as he has
been doing he will be big and high in
the spring and lose his stable name,
"Bones."
Nomad has grown and spread. He is
a compact, well-formed horse. That be
has speed and stamina every race-go
will swear to. He has been very sick
horse, and his chances looked doubtful
for several days, but he rallied, and is
now as robust and as good a goer as
there is in the stable. He will do to
remember in the spring.

LEONARD's LAMENT.
Louisiana Democrats Charged With All
the Crimes in the Decalogue.

Louisiana Democrats Charged with All
the Crimes in the Decalogue.
New ORLEANS, Feb. 8.-Hon. A. FL.
Leonard, Republican nominee for gov
ernor, today sent lengthy letter to
Chairman Ducoti of the state committee,
accepting the nomination and dealing
with the issues of the campoign. In the
course of his letter, he says: "Where
people are free, opposing political par
ties are invariably found; where such
parties do not exist, the people are not
free. In 1877, the Democratic party
took forcible possession of the state
government, and has ever since main
tanned absolute power by violent and
fraudulent means. For fifteen years
the people of Louisiana have not had a
| government, such as is guaranteed
| to them by the constitution OF
| the United States. A condition
of things 80 utterly abnormal has been
woefully injurious in its consequences.
| The development of the magnificent re-
sources of the state has been retarded,
and the intellectual and moral tone OF
the people lowered to degree that
seriously threatens the underlying prin-
ciples on which the party itself is based.
The results have been disastrous, even
| to the Democrotic party, for under the
conditions which that party has created
reckless and unscrupulous men have
naturally risen to power. What else
can be expected when force usurps the
place of argument; when bullets are
| substituted for ballots; when men who
claim to be and who are accepted as
members of the self-styled ruling class
act as officers of electioes and consider
| it simply joke to certify to returns
which they know to be, and
in many instances have unblush-
ingly admitted to be false and
fraudulent? All that is necessary in
the coming election is an honest count !;
we ask for nothing more; we should
submit to nothing else. In the words
Of the Republican platform, "the right
of every citizen to cast one vote, and
have that vote duly counted, is their
paramount right"
In conclusion, Leonard SAYS "There
is reason to hope the influence of many
of the more intelligent members of the
Democratic party will be exerted to pre-
vent bulldozing and frauds at elections
| which have so long disgpaced Louisiana.
Moreover the disruption of the Demo-
cratic party will to certain extent dis
pei the unreasonable prejudice which
has heretofore existed in the minds OF
many Democrats against the Republi-
can party, and make it difficult for the
returning officers to count out the Re-
publicans' large majority"
He accepts without reservation the
platform adopted by the Republican
state convention, and proposes to stand
| by it in the coming campaign.

SALT LAKE ELECTION.
The Liberals Carry the City by Heavy
Plurality.

SALT LAKE CRY, Utah, Feb. Sat
the city election today the Liberals car
ried their ticket by the heaviest plural
ity ever known here, looking at this
hour (9:3 80 p. m.) like 1900. Much dis
satisfaction was created and almost a
riot by throwing out of Liberal votes in
the fourth precinct, made possible by
the u Sah commission giving the minor
ity parties two out of three election
judges at every poll in the city. The
majority party (the Liberals) had no
redress when two out of three judges
refused to receive ballots. Heavy suits
are threatened, and criminal prosecu-
tions against the election judges.
The total vote of the city is S178
Liberal, $780, Democratic, 2766; Re-
publican, S52; Liberal plurality, 1894 ;
Liberal majority over all, 1l47. These
figures are on mayor.

APRINCELY PENSION.
A Life Insurance President Retired on
&37,5OOa q Year.


New York, Feb. Sat an adjourned
meeting of the trustees of the New York
Life Insurance company, today, the
Beers was unanimously accepted. The
special committee appointed to consider
the report OF the state superintendent
of insurance, recently printed, finds
that there is nothing to report which
shows any corrupt or dishonest use OF
the company's funds for the private
gain OF any of the officers OF
the company. The committee recon-
mends, however, division of the
duties of the executive officers by
the appointment of an auditor who shall
report directly to the trustees; the adop-
tion of bylaw that no salaried en-
ployee of the company shall be eligible
as president; that committee OF five
be appointed to make nominations to
fill vacancies; that the bylaws be
amended in such respects as shall add
to the efficiency of the organization.
The committee highly eulogizes the
services of President Beers and recon-
mends that salary of $4,000 per an
mum be paid to him during life. The
board adopted resolutions accepting
President Beers resignation with re-
gret, accepting the recommendation
of the committee for a pension OF
SEE, 900 per annum, and also authorizing
an agreement to secure Beers SER
vices during the remainder of his life in
an advisory capacity, upon half pay,
$12,500, making altogether an annual
salary of $37 500 to be paid Mr.. Beers
during his life. The report was ac.
cepted.
1t is reported that the presidency has
been offered to w. Scott, one of the
Independents of the Equitable Life
Assurance society; w. L.sStrong, one OF
the company's present trustees and
president of the Central National bank,
and to Mr.. Mccall, comptroller of the
Equitable.

Black Silk Finish Henriettas.

One of the largest importers of
French goods in Philadelphia in
making ready to inventory his stock
found too many fine goods,and like a
judicious merchant thought it best
to make a reduction in prices and
work off his stock, rather than wait
for customers at his regular prices.
AS we have been selling goods of
his importation for years past, it was
but natural that he should look us
up to help him unload. We accord
ingly bought $500 worth of two
numbers, one Of which we can sell
at 50 cents and the otherat SO cents.
The first is all wool and SO inches
wide; while the latter is 4o inches
wide. These goods are worth in a
general way 90 cents and sI.oo per
yard for the kind we are offering at
50 and SO cents. 1t is a good op-
p%ortunity to get a staple black dress
for less than its actual value. II you
will take the trouble to write up to
any of the largest dress goods
houses they will gladly send you
samples by mail Of their goods, and
il you give us a chance to put our

or our So cent quality beside their
