THE FACTS IN THE CASE.

In the resolutions offered by the Hon.
M. P. Frank at the Democratic conven-
ton the other night and adopted occurs
this paragraph:
''His Mayor Ingraham'sl prompt re-
fusal to accept office when doubt ex-
listed as to the accuracy of the count on
which his title to the office depended,
stands out in glazing contrast &c.
The plain implication here is, and that
beyond all doubt was the idea in
tended ito ibe conveyed, that Mr.. In
graham was SO sensitive, so scrupulously
honest, that he yielded up his certificate

dered not only his certificate but his
self respect also. He surrendered it
very promptly too when the Falmouth
Club got at him. Mr.. Harper too ought
to have received honorable mention
for his prompt surrender of his
office of warden Then also there was
the prompt surrender of the certifi-
Gates of the Democratic candidates for
councilmen in Ward 3. That ought to
have been referred to in eulogistic
language. 1t wasn't fair to give Mr..
Ingraham all the glory.

The Arguss foul abuse of the Hon.
Josiah Fl. Drummond is easily explained.
Mr.. Drummond was largely instrumental
in compelling the Democratic council
men in Ward to surrender their certif-
Gates, and thus securing the control of
the city government to the Republicans.
The loss of the city government is the
one thing above all others which the
Democrats regret-and naturally enough
they hate the man who was largely re-
Sponsible for it.

ADVERTISING AND CIRCULATION.

LSpfIngheId RepuDIcaHI
The Hartford Courant recently printed
a little chapter of gospel for advertisers,
and here it is:
Advertising requires skill and sense.
The paper that goes to reading people,
to thinking people, into homes, into
counting rooms, among the customers OF
merchants, has clientage that sis worth
more to the man who has something to
sell than the paper of accidental sales
which is bought for it's coupon interest
and thrown away as soon as the coupon
is cut out What is that sort of circula-
ton good for except to swear to?
There's a difference in people and diff
ference in papers, and the advertiser who
doesn't realize this doesn't know his
business

YOUNGSTOWN, O., Feb. ss.-The
statement has been furnished as a result
of the investigation into the affairs of
Robert L. Walker, showing that the
amount of paper on which Governor
Mckinley is endorser, is fully 100000
and may reach $4,000. Experts say
that the total liabilities of the governor
will not exceed the latter figure. The
statement startles the friends of the
governor, as it was not believed at any
time that he was on to exceed $4,000.
Arrangements are being made to
promptly pay all the Mckinley paper.

A Public Funeral.
NEW ORLEANS. Feb. 2s.-The family
of General Beauregard has yielded to
the general request of the public not to
hurry the funeral of the dead soldier.
and thereby afford the public and the
veterans an opportunity to pay fitting
respect to the memory Of the dead gem
eral. 1t has been decided that the
funeral shall be public, taking place
at 3 O'clock on Thursday afternoon.
The city council will probably offer the
council chamber as place where the
remains may lie in state. If the council
chamber is not offered the body will be
removed to Confederate Memorial hall:
ALI the veteran organizations and the
state militia will probably participate
in the funeral ceremonies, the arrange
ments for which are in Charge of Cen
eral John Glynn.

Then They Should Be Made Senators
at Large for Life, Without Com.

MADISON, Wis, Feb. 22.-Mr. Deleg-
lise has introduced the following curious
joint resolution in the assembly:
Whereas, The efficiency of governments
and prosperity of nations depends on the
wisdom inspired in their laws, and
Whereas, The sentiments that Influenced
the fathers of our republic to remove the
election of our chief executive from the
masses of the people, have passed away,
and higher principles now prevail, and,
Whereas, Four years of experience in the
executive chair of our nation tends to
greatly elevate the efficiency of the presi-
dent of the United States towards the
highest standard of wisdom in legislative
councils, and,
Whereas, 1t is demonstrated that the
right of reelection to the presidency leads
to the influence averse to highest patriot
ism. Therefore, be it
:Resolved b.. the assembly of the State of
Wisconsin that, the senate concurring
tke president of the United States
should be chosen by the direct vote of the
people and that-he should be eligible for
one term only. and
Resolved. that each ex-president of the
United States shall be United States SEN
ator at large during the remainder of his
life, from and after the expiration of his
presidential term, and be entitled to the
same compensation as other senator's; and,
Resolved, Furthermore, that such United
States senat. s at large shall be free to
absent themselves from the deliberations
OF congress, and that their compensation
shall not cease by reason of such absence,
nor of being incapacitated therefrom,
therefore, be it also
Resolved, That the constitution of the
United States should be so amended as to
conform to the principles herein expressed;
and be it also,
Resolved, That the secretary of state is

gress from Wisconsin, for presentation to

struggle between the Evansville
Foundry association. Indiana Stove
works, Kiechle, Brentano & Obendorfer,
and Kahn, Myerhoff & Co., and their
moulders, some 300 in number, has been
declared. Questions have frequently
arisen between the employers and their
men and several strikes have occurred,
although in each instance the men have
been induced to return to work. Re-
Gently strike was threatened and the
foundry men feared to take big orders
lest they should be unable to fill them.
The various foundry men united under
the name of the Manufacturers associa-
ton, and sent letter to the Moulders'
union requesting immediate arbitration.
No reply was given to the request, so
the managers agreed to close their
foundries and lock their men out. The
move was unexpected. but the men say
they will win. The manufacturers de-
clare otherwise.

of which will determine whether or not
in the opinion of the supreme court,
the Republican house is the legally Or
ganized house of Representatives of ],
state, has begun in the supreme cou.
The best legal talent in the state was
arrayed on both sides and twas evident
at the ;et that the case was to be
fought closely and that itwould be long
drawn out. Gum, the petitioner, was
arrested last week on warrant issued
by Speaker Douglass. of the Republican
house, charging him with contempt
for having refused to respond to sum
mons to appear as witness before the
house elections committee. He prays
his release on writ of habeas corpus
on the ground that Senator Douglass
had no authority to order his arrest, al
leging that he is not the speaker of the
legal house of representatives. The
court decided at the beginning that it
would listen to no arguments on points
of law until after it Ind heard all the
testimony which each side had to offer.

Said He Will Not Resign His Judge
ship Till He Is Confirmed.
ST. PAUL, Feb. GA Washington
special to The Dispatch says: If Judge
Gresham is appointed, he will not re-
sign his present position until he is con-
firmed secretary of state by the senate.
The same influences which were patent
against Gresham in 1883 before the Re-
publican convention, and which were
strong enough to induce the Populists'
presidential convention to drop his
name last summer, will be used to pre-
vent his confirmation next month.
There are many Democratic senators
who will accept any good reason offered
upon which to vote in executive session
against the confirmation of the man
who has belonged to three parties in
three years.
