MUSTERED IN M'KINLEY.
General J. C. Robinson of Binghamp-
ton Had That Honor.

Binghampton, July General John
G. Robinson of this city has the hO!lOr
of having mustered into the army of
the Union Major William Mckinley.
General Robinson is now completely
blind and has only one leg, having left
the other one at Gettysburg. His in
terest in contemporary Occurrences,
however, is not abated by his misfor-
tunes. 1t would, indeed, be strange did
not he revert to an incident in his ca
reer that seems of special interest just
now. To a correspondent he told this
story:
In the early part of the war I was
stationed at Columbus, O., and it be-
came my duty to muster into service,
among other regiments, the famous
Ohio TWenty-third. It later proved q
fighting regiment and took part in a
number of the severest battles of the
war. General ROsecrans was colonel of
the regiment, Stanley Matthews was
lieutenant colonel and Rutherford b.
Hayes major. In the ranks was. a
beardIess boy in his teens, whose name
was William Mckinley, Jr
THE record of the then beardless boy
is now almost as familiar to everybody
as that of the others who became fam
Gus, and, unless all signs fail, he will
be the next president of the United
States It was thirty-fve years ago
that General Robinson mustered these
men into service, and While he row is
nearing the 80 year mark he hopes to
live long enough to see the beardless
youth of his regiment inaugurated pres
ident.

land are involved. He'll get none of
them.
Count up the others, and see if he'd
have enough should he carry them all
even were they enough, faith has not
decided that Mckinley carry the 9TH
ers. He can carry Maine, New Hamp-
shire, Vermont, Massachusetts Rhode
Island and Connecticut, the five New
England states. Reed, the Republican
Achilles, will sull1 in his tent, but his
region will go for Mckinley. Unless a
split occur at Chicago, and it Wen
may happen, and a gold Democrat do
in the east what Teller is doing in the
west, Mckinley will carry New Jer-
sey and Delaware.
mckinley is sure, too, Of Pennsylva-
MIA, despite the cloud of Cameron and
his silver lining. Steve Elkins, adept,
may steal him West Virginia. There
is a, streak of solemn Dutch all
through Wisconsin which may save
to Mckinley that sober common
wealth For the decency of the thing
count Ohio for Mckinley, albeit should
the Democrats name Campbell, Nc
KinIey would be driven to the buck
eye wall in a moment. Count all those
states for Mckinley. But the others
of the nOrth-MinnesOta, Iowa, Hi
nois Michigan, Indiana and New York
are debatable, fightable ground
Mckinley is not sure of any of them.
In the doctrine of chance, he's sure to
lose one-third of them. Illinois in in
stance is almost certain to turn on Re
publicanism and rend it. Tanner,
whom the Republicans name for gov
ernor, is bad and the people know it.

his anarchistic side, has been the best
governor the state ever saw, and all

silver. Mckinley can't carry country
or city in that state. Illinois is about
as certain against Mckinley as Texas
itself There you are.
When the Democrats come together
at Chicago we will know more But
we are already assured of Mckinley s
defeat. A bolt at Chicago hurts him.
It is a paradox of politics, but it's
true. All Mckinley has is the gold
strength A bolt at Chicago means a
division of that strength. For one
thing, it would make his overthrow in
New York, which seems sure al

HAD A NERVOUS ATTACK.
A Man Wants a Policeman to Accom-
pany Him to Doctors.

The other evening a man came to
PatrOlman Jack King on Kansas avenue
and begged him to go with him to DR..
s. @. Stewards residence. He said that
he was afraid to go out there alone, as
he was afraid some one was laying
for him
The man was hunting DR.. Stewart be-
cause he wanted the doctor to go to
Hancock street to his brOther-in-law's
house, where there was a case of sick
ness. 1t was about 2 o'clock in the
morning and the man was very nerv-
GUS. The man is a brakeman, but he
was thoroughly frightened, and claimed
that he had almost been held up on
West Eighth street between Van Buren,
and Harrison streets. He said he ran
away from the fOotDad. PatrOlman
King told him that he was afraid to
go out there himself. as he did not have
his revolver with him. He jOked with
the man until he became ashamed of
himself and started out to the doctors
house alone.

The police yesterday afternoon ar
rested a man who has been terrifying
the women in the vicinity of Tenth
and Topeka avenue for several days.
He walked down through alleys, and
stood in front of houses and looked
in the windows an hour at a time. He
had a heavy beard and carried a cane.
At the police station he gave the name
of John B. Gray, and said he came
from st. Joseph
He got his breakfast at Judge A. H.
Horizons house early in the morning
through the kindness of the family
and his dinner at a house south of
Tenth street.
He was arraigned before Police
Judge Ferry, but he told such a
straight story that he was allowed to
go on his way He marched down
the middle of Jackson street when re-
leased and looked uD at the second
story windows as he went. He is
doubtless a harmless imbecile.

TROUTMAN GOT IT.
But 1t Was Terribly Lied About At
First.

The report published in some of the
dailies Monday that Governor Morrill,
had been turned down by the Repub1-
cans of HOltOn was entirely mlSlead-
ing. Notwithstanding that the Trout

Morrill, forces were combined against
him. he carried the city by eight major
ity- In most of the country precincts ne
had but little ppOsition.-Holton Re
corder-
The above is as misleading as the
Recorder claims the reports in the daily
papers were the first of the week The
Capital on Sunday morning published
an article stating that HOltOn was for
Morrill,, when in fact Troutman car
Fied two wards and secured nineteen
out of twenty-nine delegates Why
does not the Recorder state (if Morrill,
carried the city by eight majOrity,which
we do not deny) who has a majority of
the votes that cOunt2 TrOutman has
the city and it can't be figured any
other way.
we admit that two Potter men la
bored hard in the First ward for the
TrOutman ticket, but the Recorder
knows that the main and only force
that carried the Third ward for Nor
rill were two strong Peters men. The
Potter men fell in with the TrOutman
forces and the Peters men with the
Morrill, forces, which we think is all
right, as neither Potter nor Peters have
a strong following here
Regarding the opposition in the coun-
try precincts, will say that in some
Morrill, had a decided majority, yet
Troutman comes in with eight precincts
in his favor, besides the two wards from
HOlton.
The Recorder stated last week that
Morrill, was sure of thirteen out of the
nineteen country precincts, yet, as above
stated, Troutman has eight at this
writing, with Point Pleasant and
Adrian to hear from.
We have been unable to find any
thing in the daily papers claiming that
Morrill, had been turned down. But
last Mondays State Journal contained
an article in answer to the unfair state
ment in the Topeka Capital, above re-
ferred to, stating that TrOutman car
ried HO1tOn, which he actually did, as
the contest was for delegates. and he
received a NATURALIZATION Tribune.

Nebraska Republicans Adopt Finan-

Lincoln. Neb., July 2--In the after
noon session of the Republican cOnven-
ton Mac Coll of Lexington was nomi-
mated for governor on the fifth ballot
and left of Cass county for lieuten-
ant governor.
These resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
Chief among these standard princi-
pies is a protective tariff that cares for
every American interest and secures
the highest good for American labor;
a reciprocity that while seeking out
the worlds markets for our surplus
products, will never yield up a single

as the government and as untarnished
as its flag; a dollar that is good not
only at home, but good everywhere

hands of a capitalist, a manufacturer
or a corporation.

THIS SOUNDS PATRIOTIC.
Here's a Plank for the State Republi-
can Convention to Consider.


can Convention to Consider.
J. w. Moore, who was formerly sec.
rotary of the live stock commission,
was in town today.
Mr.. Moore is one of the Marion coun-
ty Republican delegates who viii come
to Topeka prepared to stick to Mr.
Thomas Potter of his county for gov
ernor to the very last.
There is another thing Mr.. Moore is
for, and that is silver.
THE money plank adopted at St.
Louis doesn't suit me, he says, and L
don't propose to keep my mouth shut
about it. 1 had a free silver plank
that 1 wanted our delegation to pre-
sent at St. Louis as a Kansas plank,
and 1 now propose to offer it to the
state convention for adoption"
This is MI. MOore's free silver reso-
luton:
I'VE believe that the financial policy
that confines us to a single gold stand
ard tends to a contraction of the cur
rency- We also believe that the free
coinage of silver along with the free
rather than a contraction of the cur
rency. We believe that the price of
commodities rises or falls in proportion
to the increase or diTninutton OF money;
and,
Whereas, There is a difference Of
opinion among good, conscientious, pa
triOtic men as to whether the adoption
of free and unlimited coinage of silver
by this country will cOnduce to our
prosperity without the cooperation of
Great Britain or Germany. or both of
them, in the recognition of silver as
money metal; and,
Whereas, We all agree that the re
adoption of silver as a money metal will
tend to our prosperity if the other great
nations should unite with US, therefore,
be it
Resolved That we favor the enact
ment of law that will provide for the
| free and unlimited coinage of silver and
| at the same time provide for the col
| lection in gold of double the schedule
rate of duty on all imports from any
| and every nation that may refuse to
| recognize all our kinds of money as we
may recognize them, no matter of what
material it may be made or in what
| form it may appear, for we believe that
we should mingie patriotism with our
financial legislation and that not so
much as even a suggestion from Brit
| ish statesmen or British financierS
| should have place in the laws that are
| to direct and govern the people of these
| United States"
