Pontiac, Mich, Oct. 24-People in
Oakland county are discussing a novel
race which occurred last evening on the
race track here between a COW and a
horse. The race originated in banter
between two neighbors, Edward White
and Joseph Russell, residents of Water
ford township. White is the owner Of
a high grade Durham COW, years old,
and about four weeks ago he began to
drive her to cart. She soon developed
startling qualities, and many owners Of
good horses who tried to pass White
have had to take dust from the bovines
hoof. One day Russell attempted to
pass White with his sorrel mare. This
led to words, and finally White bet Rus
sell $50 that the COW could beat the
horse in a half mile trot or half mile
walk. Russell accepted the bet and the
money was put up.
The COW was somewhat confused by
the shouts Of the crowd, and the other
wise striking contrast with her familiar
haunts, but she easily won the half
mile walk in seven minutes, the horse
being a minute behind at the wire.
The half-mile trot was also won by the
COW without an effort in 3O7. White
was saving up his cows wind for the
race against time, which he had adver-
tised ss-the closing feature. His shep-
herd dog, which kept close behind the
cart and seemed to feel weight Of
responsibility in the race, was expected
as a last resort to bite the cows heels.
This proved necessary in the race with
the horse, and the dog refused to do his
part in the race against time. White
claimed, however she has trotted a
quarter at four-minute gait on a
country road and promises to lower
that within few weeks training. The
COW was driven with q regular harness
and bit and never made break.

Pittsburg, Pa, Oct. 24.-The Repub-

hoarse tonight. 1t was their largest
demonstration of the present campaign,
and specially intended for a recognition
Of the commencement Of Governor Nc
Kinley's hurried tour through this state
and New York. An audience of 5000

cheered to the echo as the police
made way for his carriage.
When he made his appearance on the
stage, escorted by c. l.. Magee, the
audience rose en- masse and applauded
for a couple of minutes. Major G. A.

ing Of what he characterized as the
political revolution of 1884, he said:
There are thousands and tens of
thousands of Democrats who will vote
for return of prosperity, of steady
employment and of good wages, and
this will not be confined to the north.
There are indications that the revolu-
ton of sentiment has extended to the

that position and declare their adher-
ence to the principle Of protection"

JUDGE CLAYTON WILL GO.
Delaware County People Are Much
Aroused by His Latest Action.


SPECIAL to the Scranton Tribune.
Media, Pa, Oct. 24.-The canvass In
Delaware county is developing new fea-
lures every day. Last week the Re-
publican county committee turned out
two Of its members and followed this
up by forbidding the appearances of
ex-Collector Cooper on the stump, be-
cause he would not speak for the whole
ticket
Another feature developed on Mon
Gay, when rumor was abroad that
the printing Of the official ballots was
to be given Congressman Robinson's
paper, the Media Ledger, and also to
Judge Clayton's paper, the Chester Re-
publican. The majority commission
ers, who are henchmen of Judge Clay
ton and Congressman Robinson, later
gave the work out to Messrs. Robin
sons and Clayton's papers without any
stipulation whatever as to the price to
be charged.
These facts, it is thought, together
with a discreditable record ON the
bench, make the defeat of Judge Clay
ton not only possible, but a certainty.
