Three Ambitious Straddlers.

1t is apparent that the United States
senate contains three exceedingly ambi-
t1ous Democratic leaders. They are,
Voorhees,, Of Indiana, German, OF Mary
land; and David 3. Hill of New York.
VOORHEES, is chairman of the senate fl
nancial committee and poses as the tinan-
cial Moses of Democracy. He favors, or
processes to favor, about all the financial
schemes going. He supports the govern
ment in the efforts to repeal the silver
purchase act, and favors the free coin
age ofsilver. He denounces nationalbanks
and introduces bill to extend their is
sue of notes to the full face value Of
their bonds. He is a champion of metal
lie money, and at the same time an en-
thusiastic greenbacker. He is Horid in
his eulogy Of sound money and demands
the issue of state bank currency on "A
different.monetary bases. In short, his
broad gauge craftsmanship on money is
sues is broad enough to allow him to be
all things to all men, and nothing speci-
fic and definite on ANYTHING.
Senator German has the fortune to BE-
It the head of the Democratic steering
committee. Unlike VOORHEES,, Gormar
is mum as a Maryland oyster on all tn
Issues. He has kept silence 50 perfect
! that his most intimate colleagues know
/ nothing of his views on any of the tinan
cial issues that are agitating the country
His policy seems to be one Of genera
delay. Instead Of Of giving his supper
to all Of the monetary bills, he IS doinl

He Exhibits Another Phase OF His Char
acter-His "Confcssiuu' Ectracted.
PITTsBUEG July CIV Wednesday took
place the long expected visit of the district
attorney to the psriurer Gallagher for the
purpose Of taking his deposition regarding
the conviction of Dempsey and Beatty for
alleged poisoning of the non-uuion men in
the Homestead mill. Galiagher's COMES
sion has been published in full in these
dispatches IL was necessary, in the pro
ceediugs instituted by Dempsey's attor-
neys for his pardon, that the district attor-
ney should take Gallagher's deposition to
the alleged facts in his confession" This
was done Wednesday, the district attorney
putting the prisoner through q cross-ex-
animation before the document was sworn
to. The district attorney after leaving the
prisoner would say little but remarked
that he attached little Importance to Gal
laghers story
His back of confidence in Gallagher has
been amply justified, for the self confessed
liar has again gone back on himself
So that he has foresworn himself now
twice; and who knows if it is not thrice?
Gallagher called for Warden Wright in
haste yesterday AMI when the warden ap-
peared said: warden. | have been in
HI all night night and wish to say to you
now that the confession made by me yes
To-day was all a hatched-up scheme, and
that | was dragged into it. | wish now TO
rrtract everything thst was said in that
confession and wish you would send for
the attorneys interested, as | will decline to
sign the confession" Warden Wright inn
mediately notified District Attorney Bur

and tIfey hurried to the penitentiary with
all fasre.

Dempsey, Beatty, and Davidson are uilty

a child. Warden Wright says Gallagher
had big bundle of manuscript, which he
took as the foundation of his deposition on
"Wednesday, and which was prepared for
him.
The manuscript which Gallagher used
to make hi deposition Of "Wednesday, it is
now ascertained from District Attorney
Burleigh. was the work of Robert J. Beat
ty. 1t contained Beatty's idea OF what
Gallagher should swear to, and conveyed
the idea that a deposition clearing Demp-
sey and Beatty would also obtain for Gal
lagher a pardon. But Davidson, who
joined Gallagher in his first confession
"Wednesday admitted that his "confes-
sion" was lie, and the startling fact was
discovered that in some way Beatty had
been informed Of that

There was but one present of those invited
from outside tn state, REPRESENTATIVE Bry-

He was made adviser of the committee
on resolutions and while it was out free
silver speeches were made by Populist
orators. Bryan proved too radical a sill

and his office of adviser amounted to
nothing, for they wouldn't take his ud-
vice. The resolutions discuss the old
question of gold and silver currency ana
finally demand that the Sherman law be

The remains of the late Mr.. Z. G.. Spill.
man were tenderly.laid to rest last Friday
afternoon at four o'clock. In life there
was nothing in his transactions but that
clearly portrayed an honesty and integri-
ty OF purpose that endeared him to those
with whom he had dealings. He was q
good churchman, attended the Methodist
church. of which he was member, reg
ularly and took great interest in church
institutions. He was a devoted husband
and fond father, whose vacant chair will
be Just cause for many tears of anguish
from those to whom he was dearest.
To them we would not attempt to offer
consolation, but would point to the
"giver of every good and perfect gift, f"
as one who tempers justice with mercy
and whom He loveth He chasteneth." ;"
The funeral occurred from the Methodist
church at p. m last.Friday, after which
the remains were inferred by the secret
societies of which he was q respected

The Convention.

The Baptist State convention
which meets in Eufaula the % inst
should be the best we have ever had
IN point of attendance because ol
the special attractions which thi,
session will offer. These may be
named as follows:
DIR. w. B. Crumpton Cor. Sec. Of
the white Baptist State convention
will be present and address the con
vention.
DIR. Moorehouse, field Sec. of the
Home Mission society has promised
to address the convention, if he ca n
get here from Texas, in time.
Rev L M Luke, Fin. Sec. of the
Foreign Mission Society will be
here to lay before us his great work
The people in Eufaula know how
to take care of the convention.
The last but not least, because of
the high christian character that
will be manifested there among men
religious refinement. This is the
most dignifed religious body that
meets in this state.
Our bretheren, with few excep :
tions, have concluded that they CAM
not afford to be other than a chris
tian gentleman in so noble an as
sembly.
1t should be the most complete
financial success, because each
church and association have been
asked to send in their delegates and
many and intelligent baptists cannot
afford to disregard the earnest re.
quest Of the convention.
Our pastors are more self>deny-
ing than they have been They will
not let their salaries stand in the way
of the state work at this important
time. Again the pastors and many
others have been asked to give from
$500 to 800, and numbers of them
who have not given, will bring it to
me there. This is the 25th year of
the convention, hence its silver
wedding in a silver years at silver
city. Bretheren, rally, please rally,
do sacrifice something for the Lords
cause and send in your money.
Show your love for the work by hav-
ing your religious bodies to make a
good donation and you, leading with
an individual gift.
May the Lord help us all in his
great work. w. r. PETTIFoRD,
