HE WITNESSES TENNIS AND CoUNsELs
WITH MCKAY.
The chief subject of conversation
among the haweaters is the silver
question, of course, and the CHIEF
occupation appears to be playing
lawn tennis and tossing a base bal
about little plot of hog pasture
which BY courtesy is called the pub
lie square. Business in Logan is in
its customary stagnant condition.
aud there san army, small army
of course, of unemployed men who
seem to have no visible means of
support, unless knocking balls over
fish net or seine and calling out
something about love forty, love
thirty. fifteen love, and deuce and
d-n and other expressions that
seemed to have no relevency or ap-
| plication, unless the latter term was
intended to apply to the torrid
weather o. the hard times, or some
thing else that was unpleasant. They
call the game or monkey business
they were engaged in tennis, though
Bro. Mckay of the Journal Gazette
informed US that Central Wesley
Haines, who is ap authority on the
game, has different name for it.
The term has escaped us, much to
our regret, for we were impressed
with its appropriateness. Bro. Nc.
says everything is all right in Hook
inS and that free silver will cut no
ice IN the fall campaign: The Bush
nell club is getting ready for a |
spirited campaign, and the Cut Worm
club has nightly sessions and is
warming up for great work for Nc
kinley and sound money.
SAYS A PLEASANT WORD FOR AN OLD
CONTEMPORARY.
Ex-Prosecuting Attorney J. B. Ri
ason is mentioned prominently as
for Probate Judge, and |
we observed that there is quite sem
timent in favor of Mr.. A. Ii. Wilson,
late editor of the SENTINEL and for
merly editor of the Democrat, for this
position. One very pronounced Will
son man said that his candidate had
The legal knowledge, the educational
attaipments, and merited the nomin-
alton by reason of his long and faith
.ul service to the party, with ont ad-
'quate recognition. That all Mr..
wilson had ever had for his work
vas the office of Prosecuting Attor-
icy when the office was very much
ess remunerative than now. He
urther argued that the Democrats
night as well have had the title of
'robate Judge for the past three
ears, as they practically ran the Of
ice anyway, and that 10 one could
question Wilson's ability to fill the
osition.
us VIE REPUBLICAN GALL CROPS
The Democrats have discussed all :.
valuable men and with a view to 7
idking the very strongest ticket pos
lble have about decided to run ex- a
Commissioner John II. Nutter for U
treasurer against Henry j. Wood
'orth, the Republican candidate. :
lr. Nutter is a very popular and de-
ervipg gentleman, and if run upon s
is individual merits would certainly r
ake strong race. But even so good
man, Handicapped by free silver, 2
zee trade. populism, anarchy and the u
ther perplexing barnacles that are
,tached to the Democratic party this z
ear, has no chance of success.
