appoint Joseph Muller.

WASHINGTON, d. c., February 10
The report sent out from Louisville
that Colonel Attila Cox is to be Com
missioner of Internal Revenue is not be-
lieved here. 1t is the common impress
sion that Mr.. Cleveland intends to re-
appoint Joseph Miller, Of West Vir-
ginia. Mr.. Miller is a man a good deal
like Mr.. Cleveland in many respects.
He held the Office four years ana dis
charged the duties in such manner
that there was no friction and no scan
dal. The place is hard one TO fill. In
Sorth Carolina, kentucky, West Nir-
ginia and some other parts
of the country there is o
good deal OF prejudice against the
whole internal revenue system, and in
ternal revenue officers are hated by the
people OF these regions worse than a

ABILENE CAN LAUGH.
The Eastern Financial stringency
Does Not Affect Us.

Bank failures of the east are not
affecting things here and there is every
indication of continued prosperity.
Hon. J. s. TIollinger, president Of
the Abilene National bank, said to the
REFLECTOR this morning: "You would
be surprised to know the amount Of
money coming into the county from
outside sources. For instance one firm
alone received about $500 a week for
eggs shipped out; three cars of hogs
last week netted their owners $4,000,
equal to a whole train load Of wheat; a
shipment of cattle brought in yesterday
$1,000, and 40 1t goes The eastern
banks are failing simply because they
have loaned large sums ON railroad aud
industrial stocks which have decreased
in value some Of them one half, in the
past three weeks,
"llere We have nothing of the kind.
So far from the banks of Abilene owing
Kansas City any nything, on the contrary
Kansas City probably owes the three
banks here a large sum. The banks
have their loans with the solidest men
on earth--the farmers Of Dickinson
county.
"rhe stringency will affect Dickiu-
son county very little. OF course
wheat is likely to be a short crop but 1t
will bring better prices and owing to
the diversity Of production there will
be plenty to make up the deficiency.
A conservatism unknown few years
ago prevails among our people. They
are buying only what they can afford tc.
Our merchants are doing safer bust
mesa and II Is not ex ggerating the
facts in the least to say that business
In Abilene is in healthier condition
today, taking our business houses
individually and collectively, than has
ever been known; and there is evident
such spirit OF cirefulness and conser
yatisn that this condition Of things
will continue. Abilene can laugh at
speculative troubles in the east. Our
prosperity Is assured"
The speaker is in position to
know exactly what he is talsine about
and the same confident sentiments
which he expresses are echoed by
every one conyersant with the facts
and with Abilene's past history.

DEATH GAME SUDDENLY.
Lewis A. Reed, a Prominent Business
Man Passes Away.

Another prominent business man Of
Abilene has been called over the river
Of death. Lewis A. Reed, manager OF
the Badger Lumber Co., for this city,
died Of pneumonia at $3.50 this morning
at his home on North Buckeye. The
news was shock to his many friends
and acquaintance for few knew even
that he was Ill. His sickness lasted
nine days but in that time the robust
and energetic body was brought to

he attended meeting OF the Badger
Lumber Co., in Kansas City. He took
cold and was very hoarse, coughing
considerably. He came home half sick
and grew no better though he attended
business until Monday night, Monday
he was down town as usual and Tues
day evening called a physician, Dr. E.
Il. IIazlett, who realized at once that
the disease had made unusual progress.
Despite every effort that could be forth
the patient grew worse and this morn
ing after several hours Of slumber,
insensible to his surroundings, his
suffering was ended.

York City, September II, 1888, and
was one of seven brothers, the six
others preceded him TO the other shore.
He enlisted at the opening Of the war
