A CALL TO ARMS.
CHAIRMAN JOHNSTON URGES DEMO-
Gratis TO DO THEIR DUTY.
The Outlook is Good For Kentucky %
Again Take It's Place in the
Democratic Column.

Lexington, KY, Oct. A.-Chairman'
P 2. Johnston tonight issued the
following proclamation;
Lexington, KY, Oct. 24.-To the
Democratic voters of Kentucky 1t
is my duty to tell you chat the out
look for Democratic victory all along
the line is good, and that if each one,
of you will do your duty, as l know
you will, our grand old state will
again take its place in the Democratic
column, where it belongs
The contest is between Democracy
and Republicanism, aud is of such
magnitude chat it will control con-.
gressional elections next year, and
may determine the presidential cleo
ton in 1900. All men who oppose
the rule of the Republican party
fight with us, and those who favor
Republican rule oppose us.
A few spoilsmen and enemies of
our party, calling themselves Demo
Gratis, who expect personal advantage
from the deception, keep our state
ticket in the background, and would
have you join in the betrayal of it.
The open enemy challenges respect
by his boldness. but those who fight
for him, while pretending to- be
friendly, are to be watched, but not.
to be trusted or respected. Any man.
who seeks local success at the expense
of our state candidate is the enemy
of the Democratic party, state and
national, and forfeits all claim to
Democratic confidence or support.
The acceptance of Democratic
nomination is a pledge of loyalty to
the party and to its nominees. A
candidate who does not 80 consider it
has no claims on Democratic votes.
The interests of our party demand
that you should not make any ALI,
ance that does not strengthen our
State ticket or recognize the claims of
any candidate to your support who
does not work for Shackleford and
avow his purpose to vote for him.
Between candidates who do not sup.
port our nominee for clerk Of the
court of appeals Democrats are free
to choose whether such candidates
claim to be Democrats or belong to-
the Repub lean party or its helpers.
Splendid work is being done
throughout the State, especially by
the local organizations, which keep in,
mind the importance of both State
and local success. In places where
corrupt men are willing 10 abandon
principle for plumber, the rank and
file are on guard, and will see that
the betrayal is not consummated.
Let each man do his duty and we
will take the place at the head of the,
column that will redeem congress and
elect the next president,
p. P. JOHNSTON,
Chairman State Central and Execu-
tive Committee.

The Australia arrived yesterday
morning with a quantity of opium on
board, and the Custom House officials,
watching every corner and every move,
succeeded, later in the day, in captur-

20 in each of five larger tins.
Inspector Henry Peters was detailed
by Port Surveyor Sratemeyer TO
search the washing fIGm the saloon.
This was done up in bundles and placed
on the upper deck j. Barry, the seq

sisted Peters in the work of searching
the bundles. Two OF these were done
up well and Peters scratched 20. k
in blue letters on each. Barry asked
if they could be taken away. and was
answered in the affirmative. 0'Brien,
one of the walters, was standing near,
and Barry Instructed him to take the
bundles away. Instead of taking them
directly &c the wharf he took them
below.
This move seemed somewhat suspic-
ious TO Peters, and he motioned to In
spector Mauoha 10 come TO him.
Two bundles have gone below.
Chase them up and stand by them.V
said Peters. Mauoha went below, but
he could get no track of the bundles.
