Chairman Louis Delaplains. OF the Dem.
ocratic committee, hasn't already done

campaign managers that the wool grow

state, for that matter, arc not going 70
vote for the party that dealt their in-
Lustry It's death blow, In spite oil their
united petitions and protests. The
Register ought to realize the situation
by this time. It cannot make tho wool
growers believe thing which l: not
true. They know the condition oil the
wool market, and they know what caused

industry il ruined and the supply is re-
duced 10 little or nothing, and that
prices will, in any event, be regu'
lated BY the com peting prices OF foreign
woods that are admitted free. The Reg.
Istor's attempt 10 play for the votes OF
those intelligent farmers Is ludicrous IN
tho light OF the fact that it is at the
same time telling the workingmen that
they aro TO buy their clothing cheaper.
The Democratic cause Is desperate. out

Speaking OF Chairman DcIaplaine' l
SEQ he has begun Mr.. Howard's cam.
paign with q bluff in tho shape Of
challenge TO Capt. Dovoner for a series
Of Joint debates, and 1t may be fairly
assumed thut tho conduct OF the How
ard canvass from now on will DO
series Of bluffs. It is way tho Demo.
cratic managers have when they md
themselves in q desperate strait In
this case 1t Is nothing moro nor less
than scheme to awaken apathetlc
Democrats. Mr.. Howard is compare.
lively unacquainted in many OF tho
counties OF the district, and his nomi-
nation has not created worry great
amount OF enthusiasm. The Democratic
managers have witnessed, with alarm,
the remarkable enthusiasm among Re.
publicaus everywhere, and the manner
In which thoy turn out in unprece-
dented numbers to political meetings,
while, on tho other hand, tho disgusted
Democracy arc in many sections showing
great Indifference. The scheme Tor joint
discussions has been hit upon to over
como the effect OF this state Of affairs.
1t is the only way left to get out crowds
to hear Mr.. Howard and get acquainted
with him. do not know Capt. Dove
ner's intentions, but do not believe no
will fail into the Democratic plan 70 IN
troduce their candidate, and will leave
the latter to make his campaign IN ms
own way. Captain Dovener and Mt.
Howard can discuss the issues OF tho
campaign in every county" which Mr..
Delaplaine pretends TO DO so anxious
they shalt do. quito as well from sepa-
rate platforms. or course tho Demo-
cratic organs aro to take their cue from
this and howl from one end OF tho dis
trict to the other that Captain Dovenar
is afraid to meet Mr.. Howard, but the
people OF the district know, from past
exporieuce, that tho captain hasn't got
cowardly bone in his body. md has
always been ready to lock horns with
tho Champions Of Democracy, and so
the Democratic plan OF campaign will
fall fat, Mr.. Dclaplainc is young as
political manager, and, like his candi-
date has yet to learn the temperament
VI the voters Of tho district
The Democratic United States mar.
shal, Mr.. Vinson, and his deputies have
not shot at any Of their Democratic
brethren for more than week, prin-
cipaIly for the reason that most OF them
have been sojourning in Kentucky.
They returned, however, two or three
days ago, and are now under bonds to
answer before tho grand jury for the
part they took in the riot at tho Wayne
county Democratic meeting. in which
ono man was killed and many were
wounded. 1t now seems clear that tho
shot which killed Frizzell was not fired
by Vinson himself. THIS, howeycr,will
not relieve him OF n share OF the re-
sporsibility, for it is known that no
ON piled two revolvors during tho fight
and was the loader in the assault on the
Wilson forces Murder was committed
and somebody will have to answer Tor
It. Various other bodies will have to
answer for completely in the
crime. Judging from tho indig-
nation expressed by the opposing
Democratic faction, 1t will become u
necessity to remove Marshal Ninson
from Office. il President Cleveland fails
to net promptly he will place himself In
tho attitude OF Condoning tho otlenscc OF
Federal ollcor, holding commission
direct from him, iorciblv interfering
with political meetings aud engaging in
murderous riot, not as con-
servator OF the peace, but as q
violator OF tho law. So certain docs It
scom that Vinson will loso his official
head, that already speculations are in
dulred in regarding his successor. Tho
man who is most likely to receive tho
appointment Is IIato Carbon. OF this
city, ut present Wilson's chief deputy.
Mr.. Garden has not been participant
in any OF tho disgraceiul performances
OF Vinson and the other deputies, aud
is in every way worthy Of tho honor.
Ito doesn't live close enough to tho
Kentucky limo 10 DO imbuod with the
Kentucky idea, aud will provo faith
