DEMOCRAT HEADQUARTERS

New York July 2S.-Washington
seems to have the call as the place like
Iy to be selected for the headquarters
of the national Democratic committee
in the approaching campaign. Chairman
Jones originally expressed a preference
for the capital, and it is said that a
majority of the members of the COM
mittee agree with him that Washington
is in every way adapted to the require
ments of the situation. Chicago has
been considered. but owing to the hos
tility of the press of that city and its
distance from the battle-ground to the
southeast, it has been decided to give
it wide berth. Several members favor
New York, believing that it would be
good politics to attack the enemy at his
strongest point But these gentlemen
are in the minority, and probably will
be OVerruIed

MORE ABOUT ANARCHY
That Prevails in Large Slices West of
Connecticut

New Haven, Conn, July 2S.-Judge
Lynde Harrison of this city, who was a
delegate at large from the Second con-
gressiona1 district. expressed himself
today in a vigorous manner on the Chi
cago convention, saying:
In my judgment this basterd Chi
cago platform must, for the safety of
the country, be beaten overwhelming
ly If it would succeed it would be fol-
lowed by socialism and anarchy. In
addition to the agricultural classes who
know no better than to adopt free sill
yer and greenback theories" Mr.. Har-
rison asserted, there is a large num-
Der of dishonest debtors who are willing
to cheat their creditors, who would be
glad to see legal tender paper currency
deprecated to the extent that CONT
mental money was during the revolu-
ton and confederate during the war of
the rebellion. Many of the silver dele
gates admitted they knew the silver
theories to be wrong and un-Democrat-
is, but they lacked the courage to stand
up for their convictions. There was al
so in the convention a large number of
selfish office holders who are quite will
ling to put love of self and power in the
place of principle"

A Nevada Sheriff Killed in an En-

Nevada City, Cal, July 2s.-The
dead bodies of Sheriff David Douglass
and the corpse of an unknown high
wayman were today found lying few
feet apart in a wood two miles from
town.
the pistol of the sheriff. who had been
shot through the heart, in the right eye
and hand. The bullets of the sheriff
had gone through the robbers heart
abdomen and hip. The unknown man
had rife, but it had not apparently
been used.
Tt is supposed Douglass was shot by
an unseen and unknown confederate
of the highwayman.
A number of bold highway robbertes
recently reported in this neighborhood
have all seemed to be the work of one
man, who stopped coaches and private
conveyances on the roads near Nevada
City.
The sheriff and his deputies had been
untiring in their efforts to capture the
highwayman. Finally Sheriff Douglass
believing that a large squad of depu-
ties served to put the highwayman on
his guard, determined to attempt the
chase single handed. He started out
yesterday, accompanied only by his
dog. The dog returned at midnight,
and at daybreak searching parties
traced the sheriff to the spot where Of
fcer and prisoner lay dead side by

AN EX-SLAYES HOME.
The First One Ever Built Dedicated
at st. Joseph.

ST. Joseph. No, July 28.-The ex-
slaves home is finally opened. The ded-
ication of the ex-slaves' home in this
city, located at Seventeenth street and
Highland avenue. occurred Saturday
afternoon, in the presence of between
5000 and 1900 people, many of whom
were white.
This is the first and only institution
in the United States of the kind, and
the building is one of four which are
destined to occupy the grounds of its
present site. Its success is due mainly
to c. S. Baker, president and founder
and to R. L. Waldron, superintendent
and treasurer. ST. Joseph citizens will
aid this worthy enterprise, and encour-
agement is received from the most re-
mote sections of the country. None will
be admitted and receive benefits unless
they have been slaves, and no section
has a preference.

KANSAS TOO WET.
Did You Ever Hear the Like Of That
Some Potatoes Rot.

The weekly weather and crop report
issued by Weather Observer Jennings
today says:
The past week has been cool with the
temperature below normal. In the
extreme southwestern and northwestern
counties no rain fell. In the central
counties of the middle division and the
northern and eastern counties of the
eastern division light rains fell. Fine
rains fell in the central counties of the
western division, the northern and
southern counties of the middle divis-
ion, and the central and northern cOun-
ties of the eastern division, with heavy
rains in the southern counties of the
eastern division.
In the eastern and middle divisions
the past week has been fine for grow
ing crops, but bad for grain in shocks
and stacks in the southern counties.
Corn and grass are still in prime con-
dition, and the majority of the corn is
hardening rapidly. Peaches and grapes
are ripening, but the wet weather is
rotting many potatoes.
In the western division conditions
have greatly increased generally, es-
pecially in the central counties. Corn
now promises the largest crop ever
grown. Harvesting and haying have

BILL DOOLIN'S GANG.
a Stage Coach Held Up in Oklahoma
Supposedly by DooHn.

Wichita, kan, July 28.-In a lonely
gulch several miles west of the village
of Lacey, in the northern part of Ok
lahoma, the regular mail stage was
held up by a band of outlaws, who
rihed the express and mail sacks, tax
ing all the registered letters and all the
vaIuables carried by the two passen-
gers in the coach.
There is little doubt that the rob
berry was the work of the reorganized
gang of 'Bilr' Doolin, the confessed
murderer and outlaw who escaped from
the Jail at Guthrie several weeks ago
with a dozen desperate cut threats and
robbers. A big force of United States
marshals has been in pursuit of the
outlaws ever since their escape.
