Ex-President CLEvELAND'S response
20 the Notification Committee on Wed

It's a courageous, straightforward ut

the nature Of black eye TO our esteem

His words are clear and honest, and will
bear reproducing:
-Ours Is not q destructive party. We

our Constitution is founded, we insist

seriously.
During the past q hours, owing to
the extremely hot weather, AZ men were
reported sick and sent to the hospital.
Most Of them owe their illness to the
change of water.
The patrol guard sent to the city to-
day arrested quite a number OF men
who had evaded the guard and got into
town. Among them was one officer,
who was intoxicated.
Private John Gill, Of Company H.,
First Regiment, received telegram an
nouncing the serious illness OF his wife.
He has been excused from further duty,
and has gone home.
The Second Regiment band rendered
the music tonight al the lawn fete at
Senator Camden's residence.
Lieut.. Ramsep of the United States
army was given the rank of Colonel by
special order of General B. H. Oxley.

his friends do not believe there is any
impediment on account OF the
residence question but the Legislature
is likely to be Democratic, and 1t is feared
that Mr.. Elkins might have trouble with
that body. The Republicans have only two
holding-over Senators and it is thought
that the Legislature may be Democratic
through the recent gerrymander. The sec,
rotary has looked the ground over, and
while he is anxious that West virginia
should be entered in the Republican col
umn, it is not believed he can be persuaded
to run for Governor.
The convention 10 nominate the State
ticket will be held early in August, and the
matter of a candidate has been held open
pending a decision Of Mr. Elkins. The
Secretary, il is said, desires the nomina-
tion of John w. Mason, Commissioner OF
Internal Revenue, but that official declares
emphatically that he could not be induced
TO accept the nomination,

heavy burden of work without a dollar
