be married at Woodlawn, the home of
the bride near Lexington, Wednesday

IN A DILEMMA.

The situation of the Democl attic
party is perilous. No matter what
action the politicians at Chicago may
take, dissension is imminent. The
expected triumph of the silver forces
will result in a bolt, open or con-
cealed, by the gold men. Whitney,
Hill and Russell may not be expect
ed to publicly forswear temporary
allegiance to the party through
which they expect future political
preferment, but it is altogether like
ly that they and their followers will
vote against the free silver candi
date next November. If straddle
is effected at Chicago 1t will cause
great dissatisfaction among both sill
yer and gold men, since there is an
earnest desire all over the country
that a plain, direct issue be pre-
sented.
Should the convention nominate
Teller, he will be repudiated at the
polls by thousands of loyal Demo-
Gratis who will refuse to support
renegade Republican, and the Greely
campaign of 1872 will be repeated
with like result Should Teller not
be nominated, the ticket will! not re-
ceive the support of the Populists,
without which success is impossible.
From any point the view may be
taken the scene is dispiriting enough
to make the lifelong Democrat who
has seen better things, cry "All is
vanity and vexation of spirit
The Democratic party has suffered
disruption before, and it looks as
though history were to repeat itself
now. The party dissensions in the
election preceding the war gave the
Republican party an unbroken lease
OF power for twenty-four years.
The signs of the times point to Re-
publican victory which will insure
Republican rule for many years. In
such an event lies the only hope of
national prosperity.

he shows us the sort Of light that his
work has thrown on that continent. In
August, 1889, he started up the Tana

Of an armed force of Somali. Before the
end of that month, by the capsizing of

ammunition and brandy, "the only load
of beads / possessed" He continued
his journey, as he tells us, without
