man, but he would drink heavily. 1t is
not certainly known whether his death
was an accident, or whether he committed
suicide. He fell between two moving
cars. but his companion, a printer called
Jersey" Mari, says he believes McFadden
committed suicide. George had taken
the Kelley cure, but had returned to his
cups. George was brought to this city in
his infancy as a passenger on the Did
steamboat "Saluda," which blew up ut
our landing April z, 1852. He was
adopted and raised by Mr.. Alex. ii. Nc.
Fadden. He was a handsome, good
natured boy, and was liked by every one.
He learned the printing business, and has
led a rowing life, but at all times has
been considered a fine printer, and is pop
ular wherever known.
The News goes out of its way to charge
the INTELLIaENCER with playing the
baby act. We did nothing Of the sort.
We published the I'VE bids, explained all
circumstances and let the people judge
for themselves. We are not sore because
we did not get the printing, for there was
no money In 1t IL taken at our bid. But
We were surprised that both bids were not
rejected. The News bid was not accord
Ing to specifications. We understand That
the News had two bids, and waited till
noon on the day mentioned, and thinking
there would be no competition, handed in
the high bid. We do not blame the News
for taking all it can get, but the council
should look after the interests OF the city,
and IL 1t could zee no way to accept our
bid, 1t certainly had good ground for
rejecting the other. II has been the rule
to reject the bid when only one was
offered. We understand that the Herald
intended bidding, but was misled by its
attorney. II the News will cease its little
filings, n give one reason or argument
why its bid should not have been rejected
1t will confer a favor on the councilmen
who voted for 1t.

show that Patrick Lillis was born In

the Seventy-second Indiana infantry

he was twelve years, four months and
eighteen days old. He was first employed
in carrying messages, but ne was q big,
healthy boy, and soon had a musket and
a place in the ranks. At the battle OF
Big Shanty, Jun ., 1854, he war wounded
in the right shoulder. On account of his
injuries he was unable to use one arm,
and was discharged from service Novem-
Der 30, 1854. Three years later he received
a disability pension, and in 1874 he died,

wound and sickness contracted In the
service. While In the army he was on
tall as many men twice his age, and at
the time of his death stood six feet and
five inches in height. His father now
bases his claim for a pension on the fact
that his son would have been his only
support had he lived. Mr.. Lillis, ST.,
lives in Lafayette county, but spent most
of last week in Kansas City. The pension
examiners found that all the statements
made were supported by the most positive
evidence, but were very much surprised
at the age of the soldier. They say that
they do not know of another man who
did actual military service at his age"

WHAT WILL THEY DO?
Much Depends Politically en- the
Three New States.
Utah, New Mexico and Arizona
Are Now Important.
THE NEXT SENATE.
These States viii Determine
What It's Politics Will Be.

WASHINGTON Nov. ia point that
has been overlooked ia computing the
political complexion Of the next sen
ate s the admission Of Utah, with two
senators. The act Of the last session
of congress admitting Utah provides
that in March, 1895, the constitutional
convention shall be held On the
first Tuesday after the first Monday
in November Of that year the consti-
tuition is to be 81 omitted to the people
and, if ratified and found by the pres
ident to be in accordance with tie
act he will issue a proclamation adj
hitting it as q state. The act also
provides that a Representative to the
Fifty-fourth congress shall be elected
at the same time the vote is taken up
on the constitution also that state
officers and a legislature shall be
chosen, and that If the constitution
is ratified the legislature shall lmme-
diately meet and elect two United
States senat tors
As there is q bout a month from the
time the election is held until con-
gress meets, there will be ample time
to have all the formalities complied
with and Utah proclaim ed state in
time for its senators and representa-
tives to participate in the organlza-
ton of the next congress This would

tiles of the Utah senator's would cut
an important figure
Another probability which arises is
the admission of both New Mexico
and Arizona, which may be ac-
complished in time 50 that four more
senators would participate IN the
organization OF the next sena te-
Bills have already passed the
house for the admission of both
of these territories. The senate
committee on territories has
reported them favorably to the SEN
ate and they are now on the calendar.
Senators Of both parties have been
urging their passage and it is more
than likely that neither party would
oppose them because Of the effect il
would have upon the elections, as the
people are anxious for admission and
would resent opposition by any party
to that end. 1t is, therefore, quite
likely that the battle for the control
of the senate will vet be fought out
in Utah, New Mexico and Arizona
next year. The admission of these
new states would make q total of
ninety-four senators, and any party
to control would need forty eight for
a majority With the vice president
the Democrats could control the SEN
ate with forty-seven senators.
