speaking of England's submission.

they (the democrats) openly traded Bry-

many of you have been deceived by their

The republicans had no state ticket,

Our party is now scattered ana dl-

THE WORK OF WRECKERS.
A Louisville and Nashville Train Derail
cd-Several Injured.

Louisville, Ks., Nov. 13.-An official re-
port received at the Office of General
Manager Metcalf of the Louisville and
Nashville today stated that the through
train No. 8, from Cincinnati to New Or
leans, had been derailed five miles south
of Montgomery last night and five or six
persons injured, but none fatally. The
injured were brought back to Montgom-
cry The wreck occurred one mile north
of Catoma and five miles south of Mont
gomery. The train was made up of
eight cars. One was a postal, two were
baggage cars two were day coaches and
three sleepers. All the cars except the
three sleepers were derailed and went
over slight embankment.
The accident was caused by the remov.
al of some fish plates from the track. II
is supposed that the motive Of the wreck
ers was robbery. The country was
secured after the wreck, but no trace OF
the wreckers could be found. Nearly all
of the injured boarded the train at Mont
gomery and were in the day coaches

think the financial plank of the next dem
ocratic national convention will be prac-

What do you think of the prospects
of business revival?"
THE price of wheat unquestionably
will have some effect in improving bust
ness conditions, and the basis of pros
perity is in the price of cereals The
high price of wheat at present is the di-
rect result of short crops in other coun-
tries. l can not see any reason for be-
lieving that the prosperity will be perma-
nent, however anxious 1 am that it
should be. If there is no general i'm
provement free silver will sweep the
country four years from now
what effect would four years of pros
perity under republican administration
have?
"Should there be four years of pros
perity / am inclined to think free silver
would not be the issue, because the i'm
proved condition would seem to obviate
the necessity of change. However, /
do not expect that the country will have
any such good luck
do you think the republican admin
istration will try to obtain an interna-

IAN international agreement is all very

NATIONAL GRANGE.

Washington, Nov. l 1.-The second
days session of the National Grange
was devoted to hearing reports and dis
cussions upon them. The report of the
grand lecturer was read. 1t stated that
the depression in agriculture throughout
the country had not been conducive to
success in the lecturing department of the
Grange. He stated, however, that the
press of the country had been generous
in publishing notes assisting in Grange
work.
A resolution was adopted expressing
sympathy with ex-Congressman Hatch
of Missouri and commencing him as a
friend of farmers and farming interests.
A resolution was passed to call upon
the president at any time he might des-
ignate.
Immediately after the announcement
of the standing committee recess was
taken until 2:30.
When the meeting reconvened, reports
and papers were read which described
the progress of the Grange in the differ
ent states of the country. All reports
were hopeful in tone and indicated that
the work of the Grange is being felt
generally. Tonight the Grange opened
in the sixth degree and conducted bust
ness of strictly lodge character.
