HIS GRASS IS GONE.
The Tread of Many Republican Feet
Has Denuded McKinley'S Yard
of Its Verdure.

CA NTON, ONO, June 26.-Charles En-
ory Smith of Philadelphia arrived to-day
and had long talk with Major Mckinley.
Many phases of the campaign and the
method of conducting it were discussed.
G. L. Magee of Pittsburg came in during
the morning. He thinks the tariff rather
tEan the sound-money question will be
the effective issue among the great work
ing classes of Pennsylvania and predicts
a larger majority for Mckinley in that
State than was ever given a Presidential
candidate. He believes the money ques-
ton will be potent in the East and that
the platform adopted by the Republicans
will make it impossible for the Democrats
to carry New York with a free-silver can
didate.
The reception this afternoon by the
ladies of Canton to Major and Mrs. Nc
Kinley and the venerable mother of the
major, was largely attended. For more
than two hours an unbroken stream of
women passed in and out. 1t was good
natured, smiling crowd of all sorts and
conditions of life, which numbered 5000.
The light of day was excluded, and in
candescent burners gave forth blaze of
glory. The reception commenced with
speech. 1t was made by Mrs. Alice Dan
nos Jones, and was delivered before the
doors were opened. The assembled hosts
of women had to listen to the speech or
leave the reception.
Major Mckinley, in dozen words,
thanked the ladies for their presence and
with his wife and mother received the
women of his town. The major stood at
the left of his wife and made The introduc-
tions.
This evening a delegation of cheerful
shouters from NorwalK, some 300 in num-
ber, called upon Major Mckinley and
trampled the last spots of verdure from
his beloved lawn. Major Mckinley took
much pride in his lawn and counted it the
most beautiful in Canton. Tonight it is a
wreck. He bears the loss with becoming
humor, however.
The Norwalk Republican Club was in
troduced by ex-Speaker Laylin of the Ohio
House of Representatives who dwelt upon
the fact that Huron County has been a
strong Republican county for forty years.
In response Major Mckinley said in part:
.4No man anywhere throughout the coun-
try doubts where the Republican party
stands to-day. 1t stands for reunited

BLAND's CAMPAIGN OPENS.
Preparations Being Made
Further His Interests at
the Convention.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, June 26.-Bland head
quarters will be opened at Chicago next
Monday. Colonel Nicholas NJ. Bell,
Colonel Joseph K. Hickey and George w.
Allen will be in charge. They are all mem
bers of the Bland executive committee, of
which Governor Stone is chairman.
Governor Stones newspaper organ an
nounces that on the heels of the meeting
of the National executive committee of
the Democratic Dimetallic League at
Chicago next Thursday, a conference of
the representatives of all the silver forces
of the Nation would be held at Chicago.
At this conference BANDS nomination
will be urged by his friends on the plea
that when the silver men enter the con-
vention their strength should not be
divided between cand idates. This could
be done, it is contended, with perfect
safety to the interests of favorite ones,
none of whom, with possibly two excep-
tions-Boies and Matthews-hope for more
than complimentry vote from their re-
spective States on the first ballot; then,
after the initial ballot, according to the
present understanding of those favorable
to the conference plan, the votes of the
free-silver States faVorites will be cast for
the caucus nominee.
This plan is said to be entirely satisfac-
tory to Mr.. BANDS friends, who are per-
fectly willing to abide the issue, and if the
supporters of Governor Matthews and
Governor Boies can be brought to view
the matter in the same light and with the
same equanimity, the proposed conference
will be held Saturday, July 4, and If the
result for which it was called is then not
reached, it will continue in session from
day to day until the object is attained.

Pauline Ralt, tho Consic- Opera Singer,
Arrested at Pitts6Wr0.
PITTSBURG, Pa, June 26.-Two years
ago the City Council ordained that bicycle
riders should pay tax of 30 cents each,
and do no riding except when the license
plate was fastened on the wheel.
Yesterday Miss Pauline Hall, the comic
opera singer, went riding in Schenley
Park. She was spinning along, when
Solomon Coulson, Assistant Superintend-
ent of Police, appeared, wearing his every
day uniform, which is SO gorgeous that
Miss Hall stopped to look at him.
Then Coulson saw she had no plate on
her wheel and arrested her. Miss Hall
was taken to the police station and turned
over to the matron.
Magistrate Macgonigle came in an hour
later and gave her hearing. Because of
her ignorance of the ordinance he reduced
the usual fine of $25 to 81 and costs.

here three weeks ago.
When sentence was pas sed Mannow had
nothing to say. A scowl passed over his
face and his lips twitched nervously, as
though he was anxious to break out in a
TRADE of abuse. The officers of the court
had been warned that he would make a
demonstration and several Deputy Sherifts
were standing near to prevent an out
break. Mannow saw them and prudently

touched the trigger. The full load en-
tered the chest and neck of Davis, killing
him instantly. Davis is OF very proml-
nent family of Decatur, Tex. Gates is

WICHITA, KAN, June 26.--Mrs. Irene
Leonard. the convicted murderess of her
husband, H. H. Leonard, was sentenced in

years in the penitentiary. The court

motive for the crime. Mrs. Leonard has
had two trials. F. M. Williamson, her
divorced husband, was also tried for al
legged completely in the crime and acquit-
ted. Williamson was cleared after long
legal battle. Mrs. Leonard listened to her

Some time ago the students of
William and Mary College invited
ex-Congressman Breckinridege to
deliver the commencement Grafton.
Mr.. Breckenridge accepted the in
vitation in most courteous terms.
But it appears that the faculty of
college are of the goody-goody
kind and after mature consideration
decided that the engagement with
the silver-tongued kentuckian had
to be broken or those who had ex-
tended the invitation would suffer
expulsion. OF course, Mr.. Breck-
inridge was informed of the faculty's
displeasure. To this he very sar-
castically and properly replied that
he would gladly withdraw the accep-
lance; that he was under the i'm
preston that the invitation had
come from gentlemen, but finding
that he was mistaken in the matter,
he was most willing to be allowed
to withdraw.

NO FUs10N.

The Pops have refused 60 fuse.
They claim that they are fighting
for principle and do not care for the
Offices and, unlike the sugar teats,
they are not after bounty. Judge
Gunboat, of Ouachita, seems to
have been the choice of the conven-
ton, but the volcanic jurist would
not lead forlorn cause, and Mr..
Booth, an obscure Ocalaite from
New Orleans, being the most avail
able victim who was willing to offer
himself upon the altar of his coun-
try, received the barren honor of
the P. P.'s nomination for governor
of the Pelican State. It is safe to
say, however, that Bob Ingersoll
has a better show of being made a
cardinal than Mr.. Booth of being
elected governor.
Now that the Pops have declined
to combine with the sugar planters
and the niggers under the leader
ship of Cage, Demas, Hero and
Leonard, have declared war against
the Pugh ticket, it is very probable
that instead of having one ticket in
the field against the Democrats there
will be three. The combine of
which we have heard SO much about
has been knocked higher than Gil
roy's kite. The planters have ig-
ANONYMOUSLY failed to make what
would have been the greatest dicker
in the history of Louisiana. The
esteemed gentlemen were willing to
dicker only upon the condition that
they be given two-thilds OF the pie
should there be any pie. However,
to their great surprise, they have
found out that the Pops are great
pie-eaters themselves and know a
thing or two about politics in gener-
al and dickers in particular. The
planters have also learned that when
it comes to Republican politics they
are simply not in it with Tom Cage,
Hero and company.
What will become of the bob
tailed ticket nominated by the
planters? And poor Mr.. Pugh ?
The Pops won't have him. The
niggers don't want him. Had the
planters nominated Capt. Pharr it is
very likely that his cold-water pro-
'clivities and the hirsute appendage
which gives him the appearance of
the ideal PoPulist, would have Sc
cured for him an enthusiastic en-
dorsement at the hands of the third
party people; but Pugh was more
than they could swallow.

Several weeks ago the Democrat
Journal received a letter from Mr..
e. A. Brandao, of New Orleans, IN
which the author proposed for a
liberal commission to use his good
offices with the Secretary of State
to secure fog US the contract to print
the amendments that will be pub
Gshed before the election. We did
not answer the letter, because it
seemed to us that the proposition
was reflection on Secretary
Adams honor and because we
thought Brandao had no right to
make the offer. We have it on
good authority that a number of
papers were written to by Brandao
and that Capt. Adams became in
dignant when he heard of the mat
ter. He thought it looked like he
was conaiving at corruption and he
would have none Of it. Capt
Adams has never been mixed with
any cEookedness since he went into
Office, hence his friends were not
surprised ut his action in the Bran
dao affair -DeSoto Democrat.Jour-
