TIE Supreme Court of the State has rendered an opinion in the case of the vacancy for the Legislature from St. Francis county, that under tho late amendment adopted to the Constitution, the Governor has power to fill such vacancies by ap- peintment. We do not believe this construction by the State Supreme Court will be concurred in by the member, of the Legislature who framed and passed the amend ment, or the people who ratified 1t. It is certainly very bad precedent. If the Governor has pewcr to fill vacancies in the Gen. eral Assembly by appointment, it certainly places in his hands a won
 derfui power for self-aggrandize-
 ment and the promotion of personal
 ambition. Suppose the Governor should be a candidate for the United

Death of Judge sneolk.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 27.-Judge Charles speck, collector of internal revenue, died unexpectedly at his home Sunday.

MAego cRossgs r4g TRocHA.
He Lsvelled the Town of Artemisa In
 Freeing Hlmself and Followers.


 KEY WEST, Oct. 27.-Well informed passengers who arrived from Havana last night confirm adyices received by mail that Aaceo has crossed the tro- cha at Artemisa and joined other in- sargent forces in Havana province. They declare that the report circulated by Maceo of his encampment at Cacara- jicara and contemplated attack on that town was merely Q bluff to concen- trate the Spanish troops at that point. That the ruse was successful was proved by the fact that General Gonzales Lu- noz with large force was sent to at- tack Maeeo, but upon their arrival at Caearajicara the Spaniards found noth- ing but 9 deserted camp.
 Maceo's followers under forced march es then made detour through the country to the southward and suddenly appeared at Artemisa, the central point on the line of the trocha. Giving his men temporary rest the insurgent chief sent word to the commandant that he intended to lombard the town, allowing the inhabitants five hours in which to leave the city Not needing Maceo's threats. the Spaniards would allow nc one to leave. The result is known from three ports which have already been ca bled from Havana
 Maceo opened fire on the town with his artillery, and 30 shots from his dynamite gun were thrown into the city.
 Every building is said to have been leyelled. while the slaughter of non eombatants was terrible During the carnage Naceo and his followers crossed the line of the trocha into Havana prov inee, where they joined the forces of General Aguirre.

 MEXICO, Mo, Oct. 27.-A plan has been promulgated to have Candidate Bryan's Chicago convention speech read in every courthouse in the United States before the election. Harry Turner of Mexico, made the suggestion to Chair man Jones of the Democratic national committee, and has received this letter from the chairman, dated Chicago:
 Your letter is received and carefully read. I would be gratified beyond meas ure if you would take active hold of the matter indicated and give it as wide 8 circulation as you possibly can.

CHILEAN CABINET WILL RESIGN.
Much Dissatisfaction Is Felt on the
 Financial Question.


 VALPARAISO, Oct. 27.-The Mercurio asserts that the danger of an immedi- ate military crisis has subsided, though it is regarded as certain that the cabi- net will resign at once upon the assem- bling of congress Nov. g. Several Lib eral deputies have joined the coalition to sustain Errazuriz. These members will abstain from voting, but will be present at the sessions and will actively cenaure the policy pursued by the cabi- net.
 Dissatisfaction is especially felt with reference to the management of the financial question and the alarming ru- mors, which, as alleged, have been cir culated here and abroad. The minis terial appointments also are far from satisfactory to politicians.

States Senate, and any considerable number of vacancies should be created in the General Assembly by death, removal or resignation. In that contingency, the Governor, under this decision Of the Supreme Court, could fiji all of said vacancies with his personal adherents and fol. lowers who would be his puppets to advance his personal fortune or his subservient- tools in legislation. The idea of the Constitution is to render each department Of our government executive, legislative and judicial separate and absolutely independ- ent of the other; but, by this decis= ion of the Supreme Court, the legis. lative department is, in large measure, made spbserviest to the executive branch. We believe the decision is a bad precedent and it may prove to be so in the future.

WM. E. GLADSTONE, according to an Associated Press dispatch, has become enamored of the bicycle. h commenting upon his adoption of the wheel as means of loeomotion, the Republic says:
 ''The Grand Old Man has taken Up the notion with all the zeal and earnestness which he brings to bear upon all subjects, whether 1t be a question ; which affects the welfare of the British Empire, or one which concerns only his perosnal tastes.
 seWhile the cycling trade has never Jagged, it is bound now to take a bigger jump. When Gladstone re- turns to lead the Liberal party in Parliament, there is little doubt that he will be seen cycling his way to the House of Commons in even ing dress, and, having reused the passions of one side Of the House and the enthusiasm of the other. will spin back through the murky London atmosphere to his home for dinner
 Gladstone is nothing if not an enthusiast. He will give to the wold in glowing terms the benefits which he has received from wheel ing. He is now but 87. h all prob ability he will be in harness when he reaches the century maeE. In thirteen years he can do n ore for the benefit of the bicycle traee than any other mar could accomplish in fifty. His example and advice will be an advertisement that will eneir- cle the globe and even sweep away Mrs. Charlotte Smith.

where Pennies Are Coined.

1t is not generally known that
all the minor coins of base metal,
such as pennies and nickels, are
made at the Philadelphia mint,
and that nearly 100000 PEN
MES are coined there every year.
This large number is accustomed
by the fact that thousands of pen
MES are lost annually, and the gov
eminent has some difficulty in
maintaining supply. The profit
of the government on their manu-
factury is large. The blanks for
making them are purchased for 81
a Thousand from a Cincinnati firm
that produces them by contract.
Blanks for nickels are. produced in
the same way, costing Uncle Sam
only a cent and half apiece.
God is coined in Philadelphia
and San Francisco. Not enough
of it comes into the mint at New
Orleans to make the coinage of it
worth while. Gold pieces are the
only coins OF the United States
which are worth their face values
intrinsically. "A double eagle con-
tains $50 worth Of gold without

Can You Afford 1t?

The following from an exchange
contains more truth than poetry:
Some business men seem to
think it economy not to advertise
in their local paper. Opinions
differ on this point, however, and
the experience and testimony of
the most successful men are to
the contrary. Indeed, it is no
longer a question as to whether
advertising pays or not. But the
average business man may we'll
ask himself if he can afford not to
advertise. Every business in town
is either doing all it can or less
than it can.
If you are not doing all the bust
ness you want, surely the best
way in the world to launch on the
flood tide of success is to advertise
it If you are prosperously doing
all the business you want to, surely
you are the last person in the world
to deny your local paper that
which it needs and ought to have
your moral and financial sup
port-in return for what it does
Tor the community in which you
live and are interested, and from
which you obtain your living.
