EXTENDED CONSERVATION
SMhN IS FIGHTING FOR Hls LIFE

Washington, Oct. 2S.-(SpeciaL)-John sherman, willy, crafty John Sherman has created widespread consternaton in the ranks of his party, the republicans by placing on the market al this partic- ular time his book. More than one mem Der of his party has expressed deep e. grets that the advance sheets of the book were not held until after the election in next month.
 Over 72 years of age, with the grave just a little way off, this great apostle of finance, the leader of his party, looks back over his life and with mingled sad- ness and regret sees his greatest ambi- tion never attained. Lifted to almost the very portals he viewed the goal just beyond his reach. Aspiring to the high est ioffice in the gift of his country, is 1t a wonder that now the opportunity can never come again he publishes to poster ity the rankings in his bosom, caused by the supposed or real treachery of his friend.
 While denials of any treachery to Sher- man on Garfields part in the memorable republican convention of 1880 have come In abundance there are few students of .. political and human nature who do not sympathize with sherman and give ere dence to the reputed betrayal. Had Guiteau's bullet never found the mark 1t dld-had time, the revealer of all things. been given for the martyred president to serve his term there are many who think the end would have shown his adminis- tration failure; but the great bulk of the American people are hero worship pers, and James A. Garfield will ever live in their memory, an ideal of statesman ship and manliness.
 Maryland, Ohio and Kentucky.
 Gorman-sharp, astute Gorman-fs making the fight of his life over in Mary land, and when the smoke of battle has cleared away on the going down of the sun on November he will be seen stand ing In triumph over the prostrate forms of his own and democracy's enemies. Within the past few days the fight has waxed exceeding warm, and the relations between Candidates Lowndes and Hurst has grown from cordial greetings to cour- teouS recognition. German has charged and stands ready to prove it that Lowndes' nominati ton by the republicans was brought about by an understanding between the Baltimore and Ohio railway and the Baltimore Sun, that if the Sun could dictate the nomination of the dem ocratic candidate Lowndes was not to run, if not then the Sun was to support Lowndes. On November l the grandest rally in the history of the state will be held in Baltimore. Expense is to be no object, and 30000 democrats are expect ed to be in line.
 From Ohio comes the information that the republicans are shelling the woods and expect to get every voter out to the polls on election day. Campbell is mak- ing strong fight, and from what seemed hopeless contest at first now gives a chance at least of success. The disclos- ure of the minister's letter who offered to sell his vote in the legislature fell like a bomb in the republican camp. The re- publican papers all over the state had declared the thing a canard. and when its truth was established they had to crawl in a hole.
 Watt Hardin's election in Kentucky hangs almost by thread, but the ad- vices are that he will pull through The latest repudiati ton is from Casius Clay whom Hardin defeated in the convention last July. Secretary Carlisle will go home in time to register and will return aHd go again to vote. lie will cast his vote for the entire ticket.
 Personal and Pertinent.
 The president and party arrived back In Washington from their trip to At lanta Thursday night, having met with such a reception in Atlanta as only south ern people know how to extend It was rumored that MT Cleveland would take the opportunity while in Atlanta of giv-y ing out something that might be taken as his position in regard to third term but Dame Rumor was mistaken, and the question of his candidacy for reelection is still an open one.
 strange coincident happened in the supreme court room on Tuesday last. Gen. Thomas Ewing of Ohio, while in the midst of an argument, suddenly faint ed Restoratives were applied and he was sufficiently recovered to be able to walk to carriage. On the same day of the month in 1869, almost the very identical spot, General Ewing's father Thomas Ewing, Sr., was overcome while making an argument before the court
 Every now and then rumor will have 1t that some one of the presidents cabinet is to resign owing to some incompatibility between the member of the cabinet and Mr Cleveland. This time it was MT. Ol- rey who was to resign. and the cause given was that the president had disap- proved of MT. Olney's course in the Ven ezuelan controversy. MT. Olney refused to dignify the rumor with denial and 1t is believed that Madame Rumor had no more grounds for her latest gossip than she generally has. As far as is known the relations existing between the president and his cabinet is most cordial; and when enc comes to overlook the personnel of the cabinet, it is seen that it could not be otherwise.
 MT. and Mrs. W. J. Milner and daughter of Birmingham were in the city during the week, stopping at the Metropolitan
 Mir. z. T. Rudolph of Birmingham spent a few days here last week.
 Among the Alaba mians in Washington was MT Herman Richards of Selma, who has many friends all over the state.
