The politicians of the country are
combining against Mckinley, which
will make him all the more the pop
ular candidate. The people want a
reenactment of the protective policy
under which the country has pros.
pered, and Mckinley stands fore
most in connection with such pol
icy. For this reason he is the logical
candidate, and unless all signs fail,
will secure the prize. In every
state there is strong sentiment for
Mckinley, which will find expression
at the st. Louis convention despite
the efforts of the politicians to con-
troll it.

THE SPIRIT OF COMPROMISE.

The recent Republican conven-
tion in Portland was in many re /,
spects a memorable one. Aside
from the intense feeling displayed by
the dlsputants for seats IN the con
vention, the meeting had an histo-
rical interest that impressed deeply
those who were familiar with the
events of the past thirty years.
Some OF the scenes approached the
dramatic, especially when the white
haired statesman, Ex-Atty. General
Williams, at the request of both
disputing factions, arose to state the
truth as he saw it to be. Dramatic
all would call it who heard the man,
who not only in state, but in nation
al affairs, bad received full meas
ure of honor, point out the course
which it was safe and wise for the
convention to follow.
After serving the nation as sena
tor, as a member of the presidents
cabinet, as one of the High JOINT
Commission, which aided in settling
the most serious international ques-
tion that has arisen between this and
foreign country since the war
Judge Williams came into the con
vention TO say what should be done,
and, as if justifying their faith, the
members of the convention did what
was told them.
Through all of Judge Williams
speeches aud acts could be detected
the spirit of compromise the
base surrendering of any moral right,
but the disposition to meet half way Z,
to give and take allowing to both
sides the merits that were theirs.
Judge Williams whole career has
been an exposition of the value Of
compromise as a working theory.
Whether we admit it or not, it is the
only working theory where 'smany
men Of many minds" all meet to
gether to decide upon a course OF
action and there can possibly be but
one. Sometimes this theory does
not seem applicable to all phases of
a subject. Shall we send our army
by land or waters A half and half
project applied to transportation
would result in sending them into
a swamp; applied to the troops, half
of them taking the one route, the
remainder Of them coming, perhaps
not SO quickly, by the other, avoid

THURSDAY MORNING
Business Men Will Have Card of
Attractions.

The special committee of the Board
of Trade, having in charge the enter
tainment for the morning or forenoon
of next Thursday, held meeting last
Monday evening, and decided on an
informal programme, to open with the
usual Fair day salute in the early
morning.
The attractions will consist of con-
tests similar to those of a month ago,
with the addition of ladies' bicycle
race, the committee members having
been given to understand that several
young lady bicycle riders of this city
will enter the contest and struggle
for the prize.
All of these contests will occur in
the morning. This is made necessary
from the fact that the afternoon will
be absorbed by the county fair associ.

ting and bicycle races for the Fail

The special committee annou noes

MRS. ABBOTT DEAD,

Mrs. W. L, Abbott died on Monday
morning of this week, after an illness
which began year ago and which
manifested itself as muscular rheuma-
tism. The disease refused to give
way to medical treatment and reduced
the patients strength ultimately so
that for the last two months she was
almost entirely confined to bed. 1t was
evident that some internal trouble,
which the doctors did not understand,
supervened and she gradually wasted
away for the last two or three weeks
until it ended in death. It was fortu-
nate for Mrs. Abbott that Miss Abbott
and Miss Susie returned from their
school holidays just at the time that

she began to need their close atten-
ton. They, with Mrs. Buxton, the
second daughter, and Miss Grace, the
youngest daughter of the family,
waited on their mother with unremit-
ting care and nursing, two of them for
weeks never leaving the bedside. The
Woman's Relief Corps also showed
great kindness in sending watches for
the night the last ten days of Mrs. Alb
bolts life.
The funeral took place on Tuesday
afternoon from the Presbyterian
church and was attended by large
number of friends. Many floral trib-
utes we're sent by private friends and
from the Presbyterian church OF which
she was member. The Y. P. S. q.
E. of that church sent cross of white
petunias with the monogram G. E. in
the centre of the cross beautifully
worked in small flowers of different
colors. This was the society's mark
of sympathy with the members OF the
Abbott family, who we're members al
so OF the Christian Endeavor society.
Mrs. Abbott was woman OF more
than ordinary intellect and was the
first always to encourage all kinds OF
circles for the promoting of interest
in literary work. She had been a
member of the Chautauqua circle for
several years and was very helpful in
it's meetings. AS a member of the
Relief Corps she was indefatigable in
doing everything in her power for the
help of those who we're in need OF
kindness or attention of any kind. In
temperance work as we'll as the gen
eral work of her church she will be
missed second only to the way in
which she will be missed by her fami-
ly to every member of whom she was
affectionately devoted.
She leaves four daughters, one of
whom is married to Louis Buxton,
and a son who carries on printing
business in St. Paul and who was mar
ried year ago to the only daughter
of Judge Buck of Mankato. William,
her son, came time after time from
St. Paul during the illness of his
mother to visit her and was present at
the funeral.
Though Mrs. Abbott was quiet in
her manner and did not mix very
much in society she was one of those
whose life, in the case of all she came
in contact with, could not fail to affect
for good. Her eight years of residence
in this city was marked by strength
of character which must necessarily
live. Fifty-four years ago she was
born in Vermont and was predeceased
by her husband year and half ago.

GoULDs MUST PAY.
Assessment in New York Upon sIO.-
10000 Pronounced Valid.

ALBANY, N. Y, Oct. 6, 1S96.-The Court
of Appeals today, in the case of the Peo-
pie ex rel, George ]. Gould and another,
executors, versus Edward P Barkes and
another, Commissioners of Taxes of the
City of New York. affirmed. with costs,
the order appealed from. The only ques-
tion presented by the appeal was the
validity of an assessment of personal es-
tate made by the defendants as Commits
sioners of Taxes upon the REALTORS as ex-
eeutors and trustees under the will of
the late Jay Gould.
The assessment objected was upon s10.-
00O,oe0 personal property The exec
defendants as Commissioners of Taxes for
cancellation of the assessment and the
application was denied. They then pro-
cured writ of certforari to be issued
at Special Term, to review the action Of
the defendants, which. on the hearing
was dismissed and this decision was af-
frmed al General Term.
The argument in the Court Of Appeals
was confined to the question of the power
in the defendants to make, the assess
ment on. the 9Th day of July, 1893. Judge
O Brien, who writes the opinion, in which
all the Judges concur, says that the
executors resided and were personally
within the jurisdiction of the Commits
Sioners, and the assessment in form was
in compliance with all the legal formali-
ties requisite to constitute a valid charge
against the executors or trustees for the
personal estate in their possession or un-
der their control.
