THERE is no way of knowing why
Governor BUCHANAN decided at the
last moment to withdraw his name
from the contest for denomination,
unless it is the disappointment of
knowing he has been defeated for
the denomination by those who
claim to be his friends and who
have attempted to lead the ALI
ance astray, but then he has no one
to blame but himself: he has been
repeatedly warned of the traitors

The Alabama Democrats have
put themselves on record as the
opponents Of any third party. Men
who had been misled for awhile,
soon realized the futility of at
tempting to carrying out their
views Of relief and reform by Grip
ping the Democratic organization,
and the result Of the election Mon
day is conclusive evidence that the
rank and file of the Democracy of
the South are not yet ready to per-
nit the vital issues to go by default
and allow the Republicans tomarch
through their ranks to victory. AS
it is in Alabama, so it is in Tennes-
see and other States of the South.

THE RETURNS BY DISTRICTS.

LII III OlA-ND IL Dlo INV D.
From the best information at
hand the election passed off very
quietly in the county, and only a
moderate vote was polled. This is
due, perhaps, to the rigid enforce
ment of the poll-tax law, as many
voters were in a measure disfran-
chised because they failed to pro-
duce a poll-tax receipt; others re-
fused to vote because the law was
enforced.
Following is the official vote by
districts 80 far as heard from:

The Democrats of Alabama have
won a,glorious victory, and the re-

Prominent Democrats over the
State have expressed their con-

Governor will soon announce him
self as an independent candidate.
TUCKER thinks the Alliance will
not support BUCHANAN, and says:
81 will not support him, nor will
any other true Democrat" The
Governor refuses to say anything
about his withdrawal or future in
tentions, hence all is conjecture.

we will give space in our columns.

WE learn from the Jackson Wing
that the chairman of the Republi-

Congressional district pretends to
be awfully anxious for a joint can
vass between Warren Smith and
Hon. I. W. Sims, and is writing
blutfing letters to Chairman Rye
wanting to arrange list of APP
pointments throughout the district.
This pretended haste before the
proper time is simply a bluff to be
used later as an excuse for Smiths
well-known record for craw-fshing
when the canvass is really open.
Mr.. Smith can not meet Mr.. Sims
he will be conveniently "sick"
when the time comes to meet him.

AT time in the memory of man
has the Democracy been so sorely
pressed and in need of her best and
more experienced men in the halls
Of Congress; men who are familiar
with parliamentary rules, and the
undetermined trickery and ingen-
ious contrivances Of the Republi-
cans for suppressing the will of the
people; men who have the courage
of their convictions, and who will
dare TODD right in the interested the
great masses Of the people. The
Northern and New England States
have profted from experience and
they return their ablest and most
experienced men to guard their in
terests at Washington. In a few
instances the South has profted by
this example, but it too frequently
occurs that we of the South change
our Congressman so often it always
keeps the Democratic party at q
disadvantage in Congress, where
experience and long training are sc
essential to the power and inAu.

SIGNED A CHECK WHEN DRUNK.
How q Rich Alleghenian Was Worked by

How q Rich Alleghenian Was Worked by
Two Acquaintances.
About two weeks ago two well-dressed
gentlemen entered the Second National
Bank of Allegheny and presented for pay
ment a check for $500, signed by rich
young man of that CITY, The signature
seemed to have been written by the right
man, but there was an unsteadiness about 1t
which did not look right, and the cashier
hesitated to pay the check. While ques-
tioning the gentlemen who presented it
Detective McDonough passed on the street.
The cashier raped on the window and
called the officer inside. As McDonough
entered the men took the check and went
out. The detective was hastily told of the
circumstances and was told to follow the
men. He did so and saw them enter another
bank near at hand There also they were
refused payment, and as they came out
were arrested. They soon obtained bail for
hearing.
Inquiry the next day developed the fact
that the signature to the check was genuine,
but that it had been made while the signer
was intoxicated. 1t appeared to have been
written for S., and had been raised to $500.
The arrested men belong to good families,
and they succeeded in compromising the
affair, so that further prosecution was
dropped. The story leaked out only
yesterday, but the names of the parties i'm
plicated are carefully kept secret by the
police.

a number Of letters yesterday relative to
the issue OF bonds for street improvements.
Prominent among the epistles was one from
Congressman W. A. Stone. 1t was from
Washington, D. c., dated August II, and
read:
Your letter relative to the issue of bonds
for the improvement of the streets of Allie
gheny City has been received. I have no
hesitation in saying that the streets should
be improved and think your plan the most
feasible and practical one. So far as 1 am
concerned give it my hearty approval.
John Morrow, Superintendent of Allie

1 favor the improvement of the streets
and avor your plan, provided that tine
money thus raised will not be permitted to
sneak away down into the bottom of some
good citizens pockets and stay there.

bronner, c. w. Robb, j. Scott Ward,
