VIOLATING THE LAW.
Popocratic Executive Committee At
tempting to Assess Postlnasters.

Popocratic Executive Committee At
tempting to Assess Postinasters.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
United States laws make it an offense
punishable by fine of 81, 900 to assess
government employees for contribu-
tions for campaign purposes, the Ex-
ecutive Committee of the Popocratic
organization is doing that very thing
Through it's Secretary the Committee
has sent letters to every postmaster in
the county assessing them certain
amounts to assist General Warner, j.
ID. Payne and some others in carrying
on the campaign for free coinage, re-
pudiation and So cent dollar.
The letter opens with the phrase Gin
accordance with our usual custom dur
ing the presidential campaigns" and is
sent Ito the various postoffice holders
throughout the country, fixing reas-
enable assessment on all postmasters,
to assist in defraying the expenses of
the campaign. The executive COM
nittee this year is particularly handi-
capped in its work by lack of funds,
and no successful work can be carried
on without some cooperation from
you from whom we believe we right.
fully expect some reasonable and sub
stantial assistance.
Your assessment is therefore fixed at
ten dollars; which amount is due and
payable at once to me or to the treas
urer. We trust you will not disregard
this matter, but will send in your re-
mittance at once; and if possible be
with us the next regular meeting of the
Executive Committee, Tuesday even
ing, Oct. 9th. Please extend the cour-
tesy of a reply"
The missive from which the above is
quoted was typewriter and addressed
to the postmaster at Lower Newport.
1t created somewhat of a sensation
when it came into the hands of the
Republican committee. There is no
doubt of its authenticity whatever and
it may be inspected by anyone inter-
ested.
1t was certainly nervy trick in
tended to secure $500 or $1,000 for use at
the polls on election day. 1t shows
the straits in which the Popocratic or
ganization of this county perceives
itself, Notwithstanding the fact that
the head of the American Bimettalic
League resides here, and by virtue Of
his Office, is supposed to have money to
burn. 1t will, of course. fail utterly as
a device for raising money, as there is
probably not a postmaster in the
county ignorant of the law on the sub
ject.

ON THE RIVER.

Items of Interest Picked up Along tho
Ohio.
The steamer H. X Bedford was up
from Charleston Wednesday for Pitts
burg with fine trip The Kanawha
was down Wednesday evening.
Capt. Booth has returned from a trip
to Pittsburg and is now devoting his
attention to looking after the inter-
ests of his wharfboat property. Since
purchasing the wharfboat Capt. Booth
and Mr.. Hornbrooke have had several
good offers for it. but haye so far re-
fused to sell.
The Valley Belle arrived from Mid
dleport Wednesday evening and leaves
on her return trip this morning at
8 a. IN.
A fierce rate war is being waged be-
tween the Lexington and Argand
above New Matamoras and both boats
are making it cheaper for people to
travel than to stay at home. For some
time the fare between Wheeling and
New Matamoras has been only 25
cents on account of the keen competi-
tion, bnt this week the Argand had the
nerve to reduce it to 90 cents, and there
is now a prospect that other cuts will
follow, with the possible result that
passengers will eventually be paid for
making the trip.
The river has started on another
slight rise above and it is now praeti-
cally settled that the stage of water
will remain sufficiently high for navi-
cation until it is stopped by winter.
The work of repairing the landing at
the foot of Front street is proceeding
steadily and the contractor, Mr.. D. p.
Price, is doing a good job. Council
still has several hundred dollars to
spend on the improvement and the
landing will be put in first-class con-
dition.
Capt. w. d. Holmes, of Point Pleas
ant, has sold his wharfboat to Capt j.
W. Stone, owner of the ferries at that
place.
The first of the pair of middle gates
for the ice harbor lock was completed
Wednesday and will be swing into
place today. The second gate will be
finished in few days and it is expect
ed to have the pair in working order to
lock the Lorena through on her regu-
lar trip next week.

Can This be True? If so, Good Bye, Bryan!
Chicago, ILL.,, Oct. 12.-W. D. Bynum,
Chairman of the Sound Money Demo-
cratic Committee, is authority for the
statement that Candidate Bryan's tour
of the country on a special train is
more or less of money-making scheme.
1t appears that in Indiana, Iowa and
North and South Dakota, either the
boy orator of the Platte or his travel
ling managers haYe been sand-bagging
the silver Democrats of smaller towns
through which their train passed for
sums ranging from $50 to $500.
HELD UP FOR DOODLE.
Communities who refused to pay the
sums demanded were deprived of the
privilege Of hearing Bryan speak. 1t
is known that the little town of Mobiles
Vile, Ind, had to raise $3.50 before the
manager of the train would consent to
permit it to stop at all. A demand
was made on Logansport, Ind, for $500
in order to haYe the train stop, but
Logansport was slow to take advan.
tage of the offer, and the amount was
subsequently cut down to $50. A tele.
gram from Aberdeen, received this
morning, states that $500 was exacted
from that city before Bryan would con.
sent to exhibit his oratorical powers
from the rear Of the sleeping-car.

so GLAD YOU CAME.
The Maine Delegates Warmly weiosm ed
the Ladies.

According to @. Yey HoiIrsn, the
Maine delegation which left Portland
Friday in car supposed to be especially
devoted to their exclusive use, were sons
what surprised few miles out to have a
young lady assigned to section in then
car on through ticket TO Chicago. Upon
ascertaining her to be the daughter of a
leading Maine Democrat. the delegation
ohivalrously placed the state room of the
car at her disposal.
When leaving Fabyans at the White
Mountains another young lady. accom-
panied by gentleman, entered the car.
Some one remarked; ''You better not go
in there, they are only Democrats in
there.o
''There's just where wish to go then,
she replied, and the enthusiasm with
which tho Pine Tree delegates greeted
her response was but intensified upon
learning that she was the daughter Of
Maryland's disting uished Senator, A. P.
German upon her wedding trip. During
the time she remained upon the train she
certainly received abundant evidence of
the sincerity of her welcome.

night gave great satisfaction. The COM

Southern darkeys, and every ono is an
artist. The first part of the evenings
performance was devoted to az exposi-
ten of fun aud frolios, INDUCED in by
thsscolored people on the old plantation
before. the war. There were negro melo-
dies sung as only the race can sing them,
banjo solos and clog and buck and wing
dances by various mem bers of the troupe
all of which aroused the audience to the
highest pitch of enthusiasm, and the by
play indulgsd in made the grove re-
sonnd with peals Of laughter. The second
partfwas given up to eomical exhibit
ton of roller skating and a charming
executed soprano solo by the Southern
nightingale, both of which were enoored.
In conclusion the people In attendance
were given an opportunity of witnessing
a genuine cake walk by darkeys who
knew how to handle their feet The
Troubadours will be seen all the week.
