Six more States will take part in
the coming presidential election than
ever before, aud thirty more than
elected the first president, says the
indianapolis News. Then there were
fourteen States and sixty-five cleo
toral votes; this year there will be
forty-four States and Al electoral
votes. In 1888 the popular vote was,
in round number, IL, 400, 900; in 1899
1T is estimated that it will reach ID.
100000, the largest vote ever cast at
any election which history records.
and they will be scattered over n
greater area of country.
n few weeks ago we published n
clipping from an exchange saving
that any person having an American
silver half-dollar Of 1898 could ret
Sl2 for it. We have since been be-
seiged from all quarters by persons
who had in their possession the coy.
eted coin, asking us where they
could sell the piece. We have ex-
amined several coin circulars and
find that there is very little or no
premium on the coin. We are sorry
if we have lead any of our readers
into anticipations of great riches
and must thus ruthlessly blast their
hopes.
We beg to call our readers atten-
tion to the advertisement of =. Bill
hardt, found in another column of
this issue. Any person desiring to
purchase standard piano for as
low price as possible, should com
municate with him Mt once and get
his terms. The instruments. which
he offers for sale, are well known
and highly spoken of in the musical
world. This fact combined with the
experience of Mr.. Billhardt as n
and the reputation which
he enjoys i'll regard to honesty and
fairness warrants satisfaction to
his customers.
Last fall when Uncle Rob. Middle |
swarth hunted with the Swengel- |
vile party near the tunnels in Union
county, they observed n big bear
his way up mountain fully |
five hundred yards away. Mr.. Mid |
dleswarth and John Spigelmyer at |
once opened fire on the animal with
their Winchesters. The bear quick
ened his pace and disappeared over
the summit of the mountain. Mr..
did not follow the an
Imal as he did not think he was hit.
This week we received Intelligence
that the animal ran within the lines
Of a Miillin Co. party and was shot
1t short range by n Mr. Gerhart, Of
near Mans Axe Factory. A stranger
appeared upon the scene about this
line, and, running his hand through
,he thick fur, offered Mr.. Gerhart
s25 for the hide. The offer was
promptly accepted and the animal
vas skinned, whereupon they found
hat a As calibre Winchester ball

lad entered the bears breast, cut
lis iuglar vein, passed through the
,ody and lodged in the gaven. The
'nimal dressed $40 pounds. !,

Another Tramroad Accident.
WILLIAM JORDAN GROUND TO A PULP AT
PARDEE.


PARDEE.
On Friday evening of last week as
a train load of logs were being taken
down the tramroad to Pardee, the
crew lost control of the train, owing
to the slippery condition of the rails,
and all the men jumped except Olley
Specht, engineer, (son of Jacob
Specht,) and fireman Will Jordan.
The train had gained tremendous
speed when Jordan and Specht
jumped off. Jordan, it is supposed,
jumped oa the wrong side and re-
bounded under the wheels of the
trucks, where he was ground into
pulp. Specht escaped with broken
nose. sprained back and feet. The
attending physician thinks Mr..
Specht will recover. He was brought
in on mule and Jondan was taken
in on another dinkey. Mr.. Specht
had Just jumped in time, for the
next instant the train jumped the
track and landed on the rocks some
forty feet down the mountain, an
entire wreck. Mr.. Jordan lived Mt
Pardce. He leaves wife and sew
raj children. He was buried Mon
day.

SENATOR SHERM4N'S GRAND SPEECH

SENATOR SHERW5NS GRAND SPEECH
The audience which was fortunate enough
| to be within the walls OF Cooper nOI on Mon
| day night will not need to be told that Senator
Sherman made there one Of the greatest speeches
of his life. 1t was in some respects the NEST
| effective speech yet delivered in tbs campaign,
and it is only to be regretted that it could not
have been heard first by all the practical bust
ness men of this city, TO whom the eX- Secretary
| Of the Treasury always speaks with their conf
dence and next by all the wage carners Of this
| city to whom his clear exposition of the tariff
question and Of monetary issues would have
been in the highest degree instructive.
The Senator discussed first with great force
| the Democratic objections to the constitution
ality of a protective tariff. Having made il
| clear that this prcteXt for opposing protection
| has no foundation, he then urged upon all hear
ers the question why the Democratic party,
having deliberately declared protective tariff
unconstitutional, is afraid TO commit itself with
out reserve in great manufacturing States to
an absolute repeal Of protective duties. Mr..
Shermans exposition of the principles of Pro-
lection and Of the new Tariff bill was IN all
| respects admirable 1t has great weight com
Ing from MIN, inc uccIdIdlion tHdt he had cN-
amined the bill with all the care and scrutiny
that any one man can give" and Il say TO you
now that after this examination ] have como
to the conclusion that the Mckinley bill is the
best embodiment of the principles of Protection
that has ever been framed by mortal man.
With great thoroughnesS he set forth the
beneticent results already attained under the
operation of this tariff The evidence obtained
by the Senate Finance Committee, proving that
prices and the cost Of living had been reduced,
and yet wages had been raised, was followed by
reference to the advance of wages in this
State. as shown BY the Commissioner of Labor.

The tariff on certain lines Of manufactured
goods is today higher than it three years
ago That fact is admitted. The retail price to
American consumers of almost all lines OF arti-
clcs on which the tariff was raised is lower to-
day than ever before. That fact is admitted in
the official report of the Senate Investigating
Committee, signed unanimously by both Republi-
can and Democratic members Then, if the tariff
is Il taA, the foreign exporter OF such articles or
his agent here, must pay it, and the Democratic
proposition that tariff for protection is uncon-
stitutional resolves itself into declaration that
it is unconstitutional to- tax foreigners. In that
case where Is the court having jurisdiction to

Chief Judge ship of the COult OF Appeals Inc
Judge has served on that bench since 1871
and, As is admitted on all sides, has richly
earned the promotion. His long experience
his ripe learning, his elevated character his
proved fitness for high judicial service thor
oughly equip him for the place. Bench and bar
and our citizens generally throughout the state
will recognize the nomination As meeting the
best expectations. 1t is understood that the
Democratic Committee will ndorse Judge An

is held by those opposed to him politically, ana
recognizing the desrability Of taking our higher
courts. so far as may be, out OF politics. 1t Is
to be hoped that this report is true Two years

friends cannot do better than reciprocate.

Arguments were heard by the United States
Supreme Court yesterday on the celebrated
Miner law. according to which the Presidential
Electors in Michigan are to be chosen by dis
tricts and not by the people at large. This
Democratic attempt to run counter to the long
established usage of all the States, in order to
secure a partisan advantage, has attracted
good deal of attention. The argument was adj
yanced on the docket for the sake OF securing
an early decision. The ruling of the highest
court on the questions involved will be awaited
with deep interest all over the country.
