EX-GOVERNOR FULLER DEAD.



Levi X. Fuller died at his home in
Brattleboro at 15o'clock last Saturday
morning. The funeral service was held
on Tuesday.
Ex-Governor Fuller was born at West
moreland, n. H., February "a, 1871. He
removed to Windham county when he
was four years old and nine years later
began studying biography and the art
Of printing. His natural mechanical
genius soon manifested itself and at the
age of 16 the Windham County Agricul.
tural society awarded him prize for
steam engine improvement.
With a determination to follow out his
inclination toward mechanics he went to
Boston, where he served an apprentice
ship as a machinist, taking course Of
scientific study in the evening schools
and serving for time as night telegraph
operator in the Merchants exchange.
Upon his return to Brattleboro in 1860
he entered the employ of the late Jacob

Bryan the largest majority cast in the
state in many years, estimated by Percy
Clark at 100000, and that the entire
congressional delegation, in the opinion
of Gen. Shelley, chairman Of the state
committee, will be democratic. Bryan
will be sure to get Minnesota's electoral
vote, the state committee being now GER
tain fit.
Bryans Closing Week in Illinois.
William J.. Bryan will close his cam
paign speaking in Chicago and Illinois.
At a conference held Wednesday night in
his special car at the union depot, at
which there were present, beside himself,
Chairman Bentley of the state speakers
committee, and D. J. Canpau of the
national executive committee, it was de-
cided that Mr.. Bryan would best serve
the cause he represents by devoting the
last week OF the campaign to Illinois.
This means that he will give seven days
to the state central committee, which is
already planning just how it can make
the best use of him.
Keep Your Eye on Illinois.
In writing to friend i'll this city, Col
ond A. X. Mcclure, the veteran editor
OF the Philadelphia Times, who is widely
known as an experienced political OBJ
server, says: "As Illinois goes in this
fight the nation will go. Do you under
stand it? If Mckinley carries your state
he will have enough OF the western states
more or less infected by free silver to
make his election absolutely sure"
Yes, we understand it, and the people
of Illinois generally understand it. Hi
nois turned the scale in the nomination
of Mckinley and Illinois will turn the
scale in McKinley's election. What New
York has been in the presidential cleo
tons OF the last quarter OF century
Illinois is now. We regard this as a for
tunate circumstance Illinois has never
failed the nation in any emergency. She
will not falter now.
The outlook here is bright and bright
ems every day. The republicans are solid
for sound money and protection, The
sound money democrats are earnest, en-
thusiastic and full OF fight. Popuism
and popocracy, wrapped in each others
arms, are dying in the last ditch. If the
election were held today McKinley's ma
iority would be 50 600. In November it
will be larger

on the resolution offered in the house
during his term of Office, to authorize
the secretary Of the navy to furnish a
ship wherein the flour raised by American
mllers for the relief Of the peasants could
be sent to Russia. 1t will aforementioned
by those who were interested in the
Russian relief work, that, before the At
lantic Transport line had prolfered, free
OF charge, the steamship Missouri for this
purpose, Senator Washburn offered a
resolution authorizing the secretary of
the navy to furnish ship. This passed
the senate by heavy vote, but was de-
ieated in the house. Subsequently, the
means of transportation was given by
the private company named, and the
government had nothing to do with the
undertaking. At the time, the North
western Miller published a list of the
members OF congress who voted against
and succeeded in defeating theresolution,
and, by reference thereto, it will be seen
that the name of William J. Bryan, then
a representative from Nebraska, is, as
might be expected, on the list Thus it
will be seen that the man who now poses
as friend OF humanity, always ready
and anxious to take "the plain people by
the hand" who can not say enough to
show his alleged devotion to the poor
and down-trodden OF the worlds inhab-
itants, voted against allowing our rich
government to spend small amount
not to exceed fifty thousand dollars, in
carrying food to millions Of plain people
who were starving, Mr.. Bryan's phian-
thropy and love for humanity are just
about as deep as his reasoning and logic

What the Populists Claim.

Senator Butler, chairman OF the ma
tlonal populistic committee, said yester-
day at Washington: ut is almost GER
tain that a majority of the white vote OF
Georgia was cast for the peoples party
state ticket. This is a great gain over
the partys last vote, and is due to the
personal popularity of Tom Watson in
his own state, and to the desire of the
people to rebuke the management of the
democratic party in the state affairs OF
Georgia. Evidently the democratic party
is indebted to the negro vote for what.
ever kind of victory they have Won"
AS to the general political situation,
Senator Butler said: 1.-THE outlook for
Bryan and free silver is much better than
1t was 10 days ago. The reaction against
the schemes and methods of the republi
can party has already set in, and will
grow i'll force until the day the election

he says, that majority of the latter

What the Democrats Claim.
The following bulletin was posted YES

Chicago: 1t is announced that the cleo.
ton of every democratic candidate for
Congress in Tennessee is probable, and

position, an appointment which his bust
ness demands forced him to decline. The
adoption of international pitch for mu-
steal instruments, which has been STYLED
one of the most important achievements
in the annals of musical history, was due
largely to the efforts of Mr.. Fuller. His
scientific training enabled him to make
many valuable inventions for the Estev
company.
Ex-Governor Fuller was a member of
the American Society for the Advance
ment of Science and of the American Soci-
ETY. OF Mechanical Engineers. He pos
