WIEN BILLY GETS THERE.

when Bryan is elected, boys,
The sun will turn to snow,
And every kind of orchard fruit
On pumpkins vines will grow;
Queen Vic. will put her crown In soak,
Or auction 1t away;
And Pharsoh's stiff will dance Jig
when Bryan wins the day.
When Bryan sees the whitehouse, boys,
A whale will climb a tree,
And flying trains without bridge
Will cross the raging sea;
Bob Ingersoll will go aud preach,
December will be May,
And hobOs will turn in and work
When Bryan wins the day.
The Car will run free lunch stand,
The dudes will all be dead,
Some Hottentot will find the pole,
And stones will turn to bread;
The hash we eat will have no hairs,
Your baby will be gray.
Wen all go back to candles, boys
When Bryan wins the day.
When all these things take place at once
Upon certain day,
You may be pretty confident
That Billy's had his way;
But until then don't worry, boys,
He'll still be near the Platte,
And history will forget the man
Who chartered through his hat,

JAMES N. MITCHELL.
His Death at HIS Country Home
Early This Morning.

James N. Mitchell, one of the most
honored citizens of Mason county, died
at his home near Helena at 730 o'clock
this morning, in his 10th year.
He had been in poor health for some
time, but his death was not expected.
Born on the farm where he died, his
entire life had been spent in this commu,
nifty, and no man was more hOnored and
respected.
He was a most successful farmer and
able flnancier, and was President Of the
banking firm of Wells, Mitchell & Co.,
afterwards the First National Bank,
and of late years of Mitchell, Finch s.
Co. q Bank.
His loss will be felt most seriously by
the entire community.
No arrangements have as yet been
made for the funeral.

Cigar Factory.
FRANKFORT, KY, October Oth.-The
Commissioners of the Sinking Fund have
begun to receive protests against the
proposed cigar factory to be conducted
by conVicts.
Recently it was stated in these dis
patches that the Commissioners, who had
found profitable employment for all the
local conVicts, were contemplating the
establishment Of cigar factory to be run
by Northern parties at the Eddyville
Penitentiary.
One letter pleads with the Commission
ers not to commit this outrage against
organized labor" and warns them that il
will ruin them politically and wreck the
party now in charge of the state Govern
ment.
This is "a good enough Morgan" and
would probably have some weight were
it not falsehoOd made Of whole cloth.
That it is falsehood is proven by the
following letter received by Mr., Thomas
Blanchard of this city;
