A New Proposition.

ALLEN w. THURMAN, of Ohio, son OF
ALLEN c.. the ex-senator and modest
Roman of them all, /" is reported as follows
by Chicago paper;
"Ho said that Ohio was Republican Stat Q,
and that It's electoral vote this year would be
sure 10 be cast for President Harrison. Mr.
Thurman not only made this prediction in
tho most emphatic manner, but he further de-
clsrod that 90 far as no Is personally con-
cerned no is decidedly In favor Of the Ohio
Democratic Campaign Committee closing its
headquarters and allowing the campaign TO run
itself According 20 the deserving son Of the dis
tinguished father this would be an excellent
arrangement for the people Of the State, and
would not mako a material difference In the
1nsl outcome of tho campaign"
We can hardly credit this story. There
are congressman to be elected in Ohio, and
the Democrats hope TO choose ten or twelve
OF them. The complexion of the next
House of Representatives may depend
upon the result in Ohio. We expect Ohio
TO vote for HARRISON. but we also expect
number of Democrats to be elected TO the
national House Of Representatives from
Ohio. Mr.. ALLEN ". THURMAN has never
been known 70 us az sorehead," but
his proposition. supposing that be ever
made it, would lead US to the conclusion
that he had joined that gang of protested
Democrats

That tine Republicans will pass the force
bill when they have the power no sane
man can dony. said the Hon. ADLn T..
STEVENSON IN bis speech OF last week at
BLOOMINGTON, in his own State. lie is
right. The fight we are now engaged in is
q fight for che success OF the force bill aud
the turning over of the Federal Govern
ment 70 the Republican party TO be con-
Quoted by that party as its private prop
erty. Yes. the contest now Is between the
friends and the enemies of the force bill.
Let the advocates OF that bill succeed in
enacting ii into . law and there will never
be q free ballot or fair count
heard OF again in the southern States.
Our career az voters having the right
to have their votes counted will
end with the congressional elections
of 1894 But the South only will be tied in
leading strings in 1894. At that election
the congressman from all the southern
States will be returned as Republicans,
and then, with the aid OF the votes OF the
solid South thus enrolled for the Repuoh-
can party the new Congress of 1895 will
proceed to provide for the election OF Re-
publican congressman in all the northern
States also. The Minneapolis convention
pledged the Republican party to this very
course-not in words. but because the GER
tain, sure, unavoidable consequence oil
the enactment of tho force bill into law,
which bill that body did endorse, would
be the conversion Of all election officers
into Republican workers. and the destruc-
ton of the form of government which our
fathers left to us. Federal supervision OF
congressional elections cannot coexist with
free institutions.

Long-pIstanoe Telephoning.

Professor ALEXANDRA GRAHAM BELL. in
ventor OF the telephone. was in Chicago
last week. and Of course was there inter-
viewed. He doesn't promise that much
valuable telephoning will be done without
wires. OF course not. But he says that
before the Worlds Fair is opened there
viii be long-distsnce telephone in use
between New York and Chicago. In fact,
the gap between the two cities is now only
200 miles. II appears to be almost q joke to
be told that explorers in China, japan, o. nd
interior Africa use the long-distance tele-
phone. But. as Professor BELL says, we
are only at the beginning of the wonders
of electricity. There is no good reason for
doubling that our descendants OF the next
generation will be as far in advance OF
us In this matter of the employment OF
electricity as we are ahead of the last
generation. Old Professor JoHs b. DoDs
once said that the lightning is the tardy
messenger that follows In the track OF the
fhunderbolt. So electricity Is the servant.

North Carolina.

The Raleigh correspondent Of the Balti-
more American starts recent letter with
she assertion that North Carolina will
probably cast her eleven electoral votes for
HARRISON aud REED, and then in column
and half tells what else he does not know
about the situation in North Carolina.
One very amusing feature of his effort is
the capital for the Republicans he essays
to make out Of the fact that North Caro-
lima is an old Wing State, and strong
Union sentiment existed there before the
war" The joke attaching to this venega-
bic political chestnut is that there are no
truer men IN the old North State than the
North Carolina Wings. As rule they
didn't spit any fire before the war. and
they haven't eaten any dirt since.

[Correspondence Of the RIchmond Dispatch.l

Correspondence Of the Richmond Dspatch.l
ABINGDON, Va. August 29.-Rev. Or.
George X. Barr, one OF the oldest and most
esteemed citizens of Abingdon. died at his
home on Saturday morning at 3:25 O'clock.
Mr. Barr was 81 years OF age. For about
sixty years he had been an able. earnest
minister of the Protestant Methodist
Church. He was one of the founders of
the Abingdon Vrginim, and with Mr..
Charles b. Coale. who preceded him to the
grave about fifteen years, edited that jour
nal, which still lives. for about twenty
years. He was the first treasurer Of Wash
ingtou county under the new order of
things, and held that Office for two terms.
His knowledge of the early history of this
section of our State was greater than that
of any other man now living. Our county
has lost no one of her citizens for many
years whose death has caused such uni
Yersal regret.

HYDRoPHoBIA.

A remarkable occurrence took place at
the residence of Mr.. +. b. Salmon, near
this village. Some time since hr. Salmon
was aroused by disturbance in his farm
yard, and there was strange dog attack
ing very fine colt nearly years old.
He sprang upon the colt aud bit him On
the nose, imbedding his tangs on botn
sides OF 1t. Mr.. Salmon attempted to
shoot the dog, but be ran of. Some time
after, although the two wounds healed over,
he observed that the colt showed some
soreness In his joints, especially on rising
up. On yesterday about daybreak he was
violently affected with fits, occurring at
short intervals; he foamed ut the mouth
and dashed his head against trunks Of the
trees. and while exhibiting the most fran
tic evidence of intense pain fell dead. In
about six hours after he was taken. IL Is
thought that it was case OF hydropho6ia,
especially as the animal for some time had
avoided water, and although q pet WITH
Mr.. Salmon and his children, and so per-
fectly gentle as TO follow taem around,
seemed to become furious when any per-
son approached HIM.
