Philosopher.
The Minneapolis Times makes public
a pleasant little story regarding e&-
Congressman John L4nd, which not only
rejects great credit upon tho gentleman,
but is unique In its character. 1t runs
as follows:
When Mr.. Lind was serving his last
term in Congress the bill providing fol
making foreign steamship companies
responsible for flour In transit was
pending In the senate, having boon re-
| ferred TO the committee on commerce'
The northwestern mlllers were very
anxious to Becure the passage OF the olll,
as they had suffered enormous losses
through the refusal of the steamship
companies TO make good the damage
| which had occurred TO flour while being
transported TO Europe. A very promtni
ent northwestern miller was sent to
Washington to advocate the enactment
of the bill into a law, and to see that II
got n fair show at every stage OF the
game. A Good.sized sum OF money was
raised TO pay the necessary expenses,
The steamship companies were repre-
scented by some OF the ablest lawyers
from New York and Philadelphia. Tho
miller In charge Of the bill was Bome-
what discouraged at the array OF talent
on the other side, and was in n guam
Diary ms TO what to do In order to couh-
tcract and meet II. Happening to mem
tlon his dilemma 10 n Minnesota news
paper man, that gentleman asked:
why don't you get John Lind to
make n speech for tho blll?"

The newspaper man was persistent,
| however. and remarked;
"Ilvldently you do not know Mr.. Lind,
He In Informed on a great many quca-
tlonB which you do not suspect him OF
knowing anything about"
Nothing more was said at tho time,
but the remarks OF the newspaper man
| had made auch n strong Impression on
the mind OF the miller than he finally
went 10 Mr.. Lind and nBked him 10 ap-
| pear before the committee, which lac
did. Mr.. Lind made a most able aud OK

present. The bill was %fnvornbly report

called on Mr.. Lind, and, after thanking
him for hla work In behalf Of the mons.

WHEELING, NovRMnEN ., Is07.


Republican voters of Ohio to-day are
warned against the contemplate trick
sprung on theN day before election.
Not in the history OF politics has there
been a holder or more infamous attempt
at deceit. AS our readers well know,
over In Ohio the entire Democratic fight
has been centred against Senator Hanna,
the chairman Of the national Republican
committee and a friend of President Nc
Kinley. Everything IN the way OF SIAN
der, viliihcation, forgery and what-not
has been resorted to to the exclusion Of
legitimate Issues, and circulated
by the managers for John Mclean to de-
feat Senator Hanna in the interests of
free silver and the ambition OF Mclean.
The latest effort % the circulation of
the circular to be found elsewhere, on the
night before the election. processing to
be from the Harden county Republican
committee, appealing to all friends Of
Senator Foraker to strike down
Hanna"
This self-evldent piece of forgery caps
the climax of sooundrelly roorbachs that
have beer sprung in the last hours. No
Intelligent Republican will be deceived
by IT.
Every true friend Of Senator Foraker
Will denounce 1t throughout the state to-
day, and brand this evidence OF the des-
peration of the Popacratlc manager as
the crowuing act of intamy in a cam
paign, in which principles have been
thrown 20 the dogs by them.
Never in the long list of forgeries COM
mitted in the name of the Ohio Demo-
cracy has one so %palpable as this been
committed.-not even the Cincinnati bal
lot box outrage of some years ago COM
mstted by the tools of Mclean.
Let every Republican voter over the
river, as well as every Democrat who
loves decency and honor, beware of this
desplcable effort, which is intended aS a
greater blow at Senator Foraker than to
Senator Hanna.

ably large sum, but 1t seems that the

self, as he was three times a widower

caused by the almost total failure OF the
crops. The district now affected covers
most of the south and west, as well as q
large part of the north of Ireland, the
provinces of Ulster, Connaught and
Lelnster being the regions where the
crop failure has been most general.
The causes which have led to the fall
ure Of the potato crop, which for a CEN
fury past has been the main reliance Of
the people of Ireland for a food supply,
have been the tnoessant rains which have
fallen. There has not been sunshine
enough to develop vegetation or rlpen the
crops.
The geographical situation and china
tic conditions of ireland are peculiar
enough to justify some attention. A re-
cent writer summarizes these pecullarl-
ties as follows;
