BLACKBURN ON A THIRD TERM
He Says Cleveland Has Put Carlisle and
RUSSELL Out as Decoys.

VIM. L. Curtis writes from Wash
ington to the Chicago Record:
There will be Two conventions, two
nominations and two platforms at
Chicago" said Senator Blackburn, of
Kentucky, to-day, and Grover Cleve-
land will be at the head of one of the
tickets.
do | think he will be elected? Such
a thing is impossible. He could not
carry one of the Southern States. He
will be supported only by the money
class The men who have bought the
bonds he has issued will vote for him,
and he is entitled to their votes. but
the people who pay the interest on
these bonds will vote for some one else
The Presidents bump of self-esteem
is very much more developed than his
bump of caution, and he is going into
the campaign dependent upon very
narrow following
is Carlisle a candidate?"
NO. My esteemed fellow-citizen
WHO mas mismanaged the finances OF
this government in such complete
and comprehensive manner is only a
decoy which Cleveland has sent out
in the west, just as Billy Russell is the
decoy he has sent out in the east to
attract the attention of the public un-
til he gets ready to disclose himself"

BLACKBURN SCORED ONE.
A Man Who Had Tried to Defeat Him
Forced to Bite the Dust.

The air is full Of talk that the ad-
ministration is telling the Texas Hep
resentativeS that no one but gold
Democrats are to be appointed post
masters in that State, and it seems that
a man who has been duly recon-
mended for the postmastership at
Rome. Ga, is not TO be nominated be-
cause he has declared himself for sill
yer. If this is to be the policy of the
administration the fate of t. J. Glenn
may be lesson, says the Washington
Post.
Mr.. Glenn is CleveIand-Carlisle
gold standard Democrat, and in this
capacity did everything in his power
to defeat the election to the Senate of
his fellow-Democrat, Senator Black
burn, in kentucky, last fall His re-
ward came when he was nominated to
be postmaster of Carlisle last January.
Previous to this, however, Senator
Blackburn had asked Postmaster-Gen-
eral Wilson not to select him, and
Senator Lindsay, partisan of the adj
ministration as he is, had not only also
protested against the appointment on
the ground that the man had been I'M
necessarily bitter and venomouS III
his fight against Black burn, but had
actually received letter from the
Postmaster-General, saying that the
appointment would not be made. Ten
days after this letter was written the
nomination was sent TO the Senate.
The curious part of the story is that
there was presented to the Senate
Postoffice committee, by a western
Senator, a petition addressed to Secre-
tary Carlisle. It was signed by some
twenty Democrats of the Kentucky
town, and said that if Mr.. Carlisle
wanted the Presidents policy to be
carried out in that district he must
see that Glenn was appointed Upon
that petition alone Senator Blackburn
rested his case, and the Senate Post
office committee, without a dissenting
voice, decided against the appointee.
Before further action was taken, Sena
tor Lindsay communicated with the
President, and yesterday the nomina-
ton was withdrawn. The new APP
pointee in Glenn's place is we'll
known lady resident of Carlisle, Mrs.
Phoebe Mann, who will be promptly
confirmed.

what the stars have to say.
Ever since the first of April there
has been strange movement among
the stars. They say that Grover C1eve-
land is a man of greater destiny than
Napoleon Bonapart. He is going to
suddenly change his views on the fin
ancial question. He has been under
the spell of a powerful hypnotist for
the past few years, who has been en-
ployed by Wall street and the bankers
of Europe to influence him. This pow
erful spell is going to be broken by
most mysterious influence, | cannot

National convention is going to break
up in a big row. The next Democrat
ic convention is going to declare for
the unlimited coinage of silver 16 to /.
Grover Cleveland is going to be nomi-
mated by reclamation and will be elect
ed by 100 electoral votes, and his third
administration will astonish the whole
civilized world. julie Carr is going to
be elected Governor Of North Carolina
by a majority of 5000 votes. The Pop
ulsts and Democrats are going to fuse
and sweep the State from the noun
tains to the sea-shore. Cuba is going
to gain her independence in six
months and Spain is going to get into
a short, but lively war with the United
State, on the first day of August the
United States gun boats will vigorous
w lombard the city of Havana. Gen.
Weyler will be killed in this terrific
battle
The English, French ana German
press will be exceedingly hostile to the
United States. There will be wars
and r7lmors of wars but the United
State will steer clear of war during the
closing months of summer and during
fall months there will be unusual phe-
nomena both on land and sea.and the
whole world will be in a state of in
tense excitement. The churches al

The chief spring in this queer aggre-
