own making. to expatriate himself and to
endeavor to reconstruct in the new world

he has lost or forfeited in Europe. Some
of them succeed, but they are compare

lies concealed beneath the ~threadbars and

ruins OF former social greatness in the old

There was romance, drama or tragedy in
an ordinary incident of routine life, which,
like most other incidents, when traced to
formative circumstances was pathetic and
uncommonplaos.
Several years ago, while on q special mis-

the crown princess. now the Empress Fred

A Poor Prophet.

A writer in the French Economist, of
Paris has pointed out how unsafe it is to
attempt TO forecast the future. Thus. for
example, in 1770, Mercior prophesied that
in 2240 Russia would have a population of
AZ, 0O0. 900, and that London IN tie samo
year would have 1.eD0, 900 snhubitauts. Az
the total population OF tho Russian empire
at the census OF 1851 was lI3,35t6l9. and
london has now G,000,0 900 inhabitants

TRANzHEIGM AT WORK.


Some OF tho Devices his Friends Find
Time to Resort To.
Thesupporters of the desperate cause
Of A. A. Franzheim, the Democratic
nominee for sheriff, are about ready to
resort to anything. The latest scheme
described is one that will react badly.
1t is to print list OF Democratic BUSH
ness men who will support him. This
is due in the Register to-day. 1t will be
interesting for the names OF Democrats
which it does not contain.
The shrewder scheme, although
worked too late, has already been fore
stalled in the INTELLIGENcER. 1t is re-
ported that Gas Commissioners Shailer
and Schult2e have signed that long
talked OF vindication OF Franzhelm,
denying that his funds were short as
secretary oil the gas board by over
$1,000. This denial is stated to have
been printed in an extra edition of the
Register printed late Saturday morning
for country use only. A circular con-
tanning it is TO be used, and it is thought
it will be distributed in the city to-day
or tomorrow.
In considering this denial this should
not be lost sight of: Ii the charge Of
deialcation is false now, it was false
when 1t was made IN open Council
meeting two weeks ago. Why did not
these men deny it then? Why has the
investigation MIR. Frazheim demanded
never been begun2 There is but one
answer: because an inquiry must prove
him guilty.
AS a last resort the supporters OF
Franzheim sent runners all over the
county offering to trade anything for a
not like this pretty well, aud they at
once went to work to trade anything
for vote on Congress. The only safe
way for Republican is to trade Moth
ing.
One case is known where one Demo-
crat traded ten times on the same can
didate in one ward. That is their
scheme. Any trader is likely to be
swindled by the Democrat They are
particularly anxious about the legisla-
tive ticket.
The following affidavit shows to what
straits Franzheim has been reduced:

through the state to this point, and
closed the campaign yesterday at
Princeton with the plucky and sure
congressional! winner, Edward p. Rucker,
with one OF the biggest and most enthu.:
siaatic meetings ever held in this end OF
the state by the Republican party. At
kinson was at his best and made the
greatest speeches OF his life. Twenty
five hundred people were there with
flags, banners and music, and all were
advised that excursions were not due at
this season of the year.
Stalnaker's scheme got black eye all
over this black belt. Keep your eye on
Mercer and Mcdowell. The Democrats
are desperate and as last death rattle
they had six thousand posters here last
night, representing n West Virginia
school house with mixed school and a
colored teacher with a cat-of-nine tails
"laying on McDuG," anda little white
boy Just about to expire. They started
night runners through these two noun

ing; but is cheaper than excursions.

Wheeling IS full OF repeaters. They
are all Democratic repeaters, and their
Introduction here illustrates forcibly
the straits to which the Democracy IN
West Virginia and especially in Ohio
county feel that they have come.
Their scheme is to use these men
here, and then run them out the Balti-
more & Ohio road to vote at Cameron
and in Marion county. Tho persons
who have them in charge here and will
look after them elsewhere are known,
and some OF the repeaters are spotted.
1t has been a matter OF general COM
ment recently that tho town was well
filled up with strangers. They are
travelling about under Democratic aus
pices. 1t is interesting to note that
Pittsburgh is well represented by men
who look us il they would do anything
10 gain desired end. A few OF them
are supposed to be from Baltimore. At
least a number OF men who look as ii
they would bear watching came in over
the Baltimore & Ohio road from the
east Saturday and yesterday.
The gang is under a Pittsburgh ex-
pert Many OF their lodging places
have been located, and they will be
watched by the Republican county
committee. The committee to further
hamper the efforts Of these Democratic
tools has offered 4 reward Of 500 for
every illegal voter convicted. 1t is
thought arrangements are complete to
lay the hand Of the law on the first
man who attempts to cast an illegal
vote.
Persons interested in an honest ballot
are asked to keep lookout for them,
particularly in the Fifth and Sixth
wards. The Ohio county Republicans
feel entirely competent to cope with
them here, and think 1t well to warn
the brethren out along the road i'll
time.
The fact that the registry of voters is
largely excessive, was in itself ground
for suspicion. Investigation shows that
men are registered several times in
different districts; that men are regis
tered where they never lived, and that
in the Fifth and Sixth and at least one
Otner WaTu llell arc IeSlSleIeu WIZ arc
not known in the district. 1t is by de-
vices like this, or by bold perjury that
it is hoped TO get in the votes OF these
imported professional repeaters.
There ia no room for doubt that the
scheme is to be worked ii possible.
Forewarned is forearmed. Ii the Re-
publicans arc vigilant and courageous
these rapers of the ballot will be behind
prison bars before many months.

The Governor was introduced by Hon.
John Corcoran, and made speech last
ing over an hour, dealing on the tariff,
"foace" bill, and state issues. He in
dulged in the usual preposterous utter
ances that have characterized the
speeches OF Democratic speakers in this
campaign He inimated that some
sinister result was to be expected from
the visits to West Virginia OF cabinet
officers Elkins, Foster and Miller.
The remainder of the speech was the
usual Democratic commonplace, dema-
gogic appeal to the predujice on which
that party is so confident of being con-
tinued in power in West Virginia
Col. Robert White followed Governor
Fleming in u short speech, that was en-
Enthusiastically received. He said he
had been along the skirmish line and
was confident that Tuesday would see
the relegation OF the Republican party
to the rear, where it belongs, and the
triumphal return OF Democracy to
power. OF course no did not fail to stir
