From Our Democratic contribut,

From Our Democratic Contributor.
To the Daily LIGHT.
Our convention for a congress-
man of the 18th district has been
held, the Republican convention
will be held on the 25th, and if it
dominates strong man, the late
Dallas Democratic State conven-
ton may be made to see it's folly
in denying the regular Democracy
Of BeXar county representation. If
a Republican congressman repre-
sents us in the next Congress the
state convention that seated our
doubly endorsed ar.shedders of
two years ago, will be to blame.
Democrats in the district now
have a choice, when it comes to
the congressional candidate, to
vote for protection Democrat or
protection Republican. The DEM
ocratiC nominee is the paid raj l.
road attorney of one Of the roads
in one of the richest and political
ly aggressive Republican railroad
syndicates in the world. If the
Stanford estate, Coils P. Hunting
ton ct al. can get one more sup
porter of railroad schemes in the
House of Representatives, it can
only be done in the Twelfth dis
triCt by a blind adhesion to, or
faith in the delusive name of "dem-
ocratic nominee" Under present
circumstances democrats are alb
solved from all allegiance to man
not in accord with one of the most
vital demands of it's party, and
they can safely vote for an honest
and plain representative Of the Re-
publican party, who has no corpo-
rations to make demands upon
him. Democrats can and will do
so, without being injured in their
love for

Looks More Like Business,

Since Judge Raybnrn revoked the ap-
pointment Of Ross Reynolds Esq, OF Kit
tanning, as auditor to distribute the funds
arising out of the trustees sale OF the
Brady's Bend Iron Co.'S. property, many
people were inclined to doubt that the
purchasers were sincere in their intentions
10 build a railroad TO Butler, or develop
the coal or mineral deposits OF the vast
property.
IL will be remembered that the appoint
ment was revoked because no funds had
been paid into the hands of the Court, and
hence could not be distributed. But al
the parties who sold the property bought
1t back again, the money, If paid into
Court, would only be returned to them.
There was no need of this only to comply
with the formality of law. However, on
Monday the Court was satisfied and the
transfer of papers made to the new com
pany, SO that they are now in complete
possession Of the property, have satisfied all
claims save the labor claims against 1t, and
no reasonable doubt can be expressed that
they have repeatedly said they would do
build the railroad and develope the prop
erty.
Several Of the members Of the company
and their attorney, were at Kittanning on
Monday, and the following day @. o. Bill
lings, Of Boston, and wife, and X. X. Ham.
mond, of Pittsburg, came up on the morn
ing train and were driven over the prop.
erty. They also visited the oil well and
only returned in time to take the afternoon
train south. Nothing was given ut al
relating to the railroad by any Of the party
One of our leading citizens received I
letter this week from a gentleman at New
York who is in q position to know what L
going on the inside, which said that the
railroad from this place to Butler would be
built at once. That the contract for build
ing the road had been let and that thu
contractors specifications stipulated 1t wa
to be completed in four months. We only
hope this is the case, but are inclined u
doubt that the contract has been let, for i
would have been heard Of ere this. Every
thing looks better. and no doubt somt
thing will be done soon.-East Brady Re

Talmage's Church Again.

Just after services at noon last Sunday
and while DR.. Talmage was shaking hands
with members of his congregation, fire
burst out between the pipes OF the organ,
and within ten minutes the big tabernacle
was doomed to iotal destruction. AdjOin-
ing the church was the Hotel Regent, eight
stories in height, with frontage Of ninety
feet on Clinton avenue and extending back
200 feet TO Waverly avenue. The fire
spread from the tabernacle to this hotel
and then to the dwelling houses on Green
avenue and Waverly avenue, opposite the
church. The wind carried the blazing
cinders in such quantities in south
easterly direction that dwelling houses on
Washington avenue, two squares away,
and also the Summerfield Methodist church
were set on fire by them, but the greatest
loss on any one of these structures did not
exceed $I5, 900. The total loss, however,
reaches over 81, 600, 900.
The fire was caused by electric wires,
and this is the third time Talmages church
has been burned and always on Sunday.
1t will be rebuilt, this summer.
