The Senatorial convention at Bowl
ing Green did what was expected of it,
nominated the three Senators
(Hankey, Harbaugh and VogD by ac-
clamation. The convention did what
was undoubtedly the best thing for the
party and regardless of the previous
opinions OF any person it is but just and
proper that the ticket thus nominated
should receive the loyal support of the
party and the party newspapers
throughout the entire district. All

There is a feeling that maybe Mclean

unless he finds he has the Legislature

This is mistake. Mr.. Mclean will
want the complimentary vote of his

ment. He is not candidate to saye
his revenue only; and he will go on as
candidate. There is no objection to
his free advertising,

A POPULlST ADDRESS.
Leaders Fear the Disintegration of
the Party.

The middle-of-the-road Populist leaders
havetfssued an address to their wing of the
party. During the past month the party
has been endeavoring to organize on the
Nashville PLAN" but it has not been very
successful. The large element of fusionists
in the party favor letting the party organi-
cation slide and acting with the silver Dem
. ocrats hereafter and they have been able
to head off many of the county meetings.
In their address the leaders say:
This postponement has been made neces-
sary by the complaint from various dis
tricts that the time was far too short; that
the farmers were busy with their wheat
sowing, and that the reorganization of coun-
ties and districts could not be made in time.
Let every district, county and township
chairman who has not done so call meetings
at once and reorganize. Should the man
who is now acting as chairman refuse or
delay in calling such meetings, any five
reputable Populsts for the township, or any
ten reputable Populists for the county, or
any three county chairmen for a district
may call such meeting and they will be
recognized"

with his subject, 1.-The Church of the Ldv-
ing God as the Pillar and Ground of the

that concerns the soul of man--the truth
that Christ came to establish. The speak
err said that Christ loved the church be-
cause he saw in it ell its grand purity. The
convention was urged to learn to cherish
the church and help it on to its GREATEST
glory and perfection.
Rev. Alexander Proctor, of Independence

pastor at independence for thirty-eight
years. One of his striking expressions was
IF you put dogma into the head you will
drive love out of the heart But thank God
the reign of dogma is going down and the
reign Of love is coming" He said that when
these older preachers were young they went
dIJer the ScalpS OF all OJner denominations.
They preached doctrine, almost pure doc
trine. Now if they want an audience they
preach the living God. Next was a sym
postum on the benefits and blessings Of the

the appointment of the new Board of Pub
