The Westminster Advocate says that Con

is nothing left that the Congressman can do.

Very Much Worried.

Our more than esteemed contemporary. the
Baltimore Sa,i is in an awful predicament, if
any faith can be placed in its utterances. 1t
says It is as much opposed to Dingleyisu AMI
Mckinleyism as 10 Blyanisln. and seems
worried for fear the Democratic party will not
change its principles and leaders so il can
support The party again. 1t has been some
years since it supported the Democratic party,
and we do not know that it has been invited
to come back to the party. Nobody is worried
over its position except itself. 1t should take
a sedative and calm itself There will be a
Democratic victory this year, no matter how
the SIN goes.

The Republicans have gained United
States Senator in Kentucky, the Legislature

day, after a struggle lasting through regular

are responsible for this calamity as they were

TERRIBLE CYCLONE
AND CLoUDBURSTS
Loss of ife-Destruction of Stock
Rivers Overflow and Sweep
Everything Before Them.

The town of Guthrie, Oklahoma, was over
whelmed Wednesday morning by what is de-
seribed as a mighty wall of water, which came
d wn the Cottonwood river, which was al
ready flooded by unprecedentedly heavy rains
during the preceding four days. The flood
carried everything before it, many persons
being drowned in their houses or swept away
in the torrent. The estimates of the loss of
life range from so to $50, though the latter
figure is thought to be greatly exaggerated.
Many miles of farm land along the Cotton
wood and Cimarron rivers and in the Canadian
Valley are submerged Al FL Reno l0inches
of rain fell in "a hours. The wind was nearly
a hurricane, houses were unrooied, timbe !,
rails shingles, &C., were hurled about the
streets, and the contents Of the buildings were
either destroyed or damaged to such AN extent
as to be of little use. Water swept through
the windows carrying away furniture and leav
ing deposit of slime and mud from two 10
eight inches deep. Churches and other build
ings were struck by lightning and torn to
pieces, stock of all kinds drowned and crops
washed away.
During the storm on Lake Ontario, on Mon
day night and Tuesday, six vessels went ashore
at the eastern end of the lake. Among them
are the steel steamers Rosedale, in the st.

steel steamer Rannockburn, with 10000
bushels of corn, on the rocks near Snake Is

The export Of gold has begun again, ever

President McKinley's address on the oeea-

commonplace. Grant was great captain, but
when Mckinley said he was without rival ne

Strap Them On.

Governor Lowndes' staff cut a pretty figure
at the parade in New York on Tuesday, on
the occasion of the unwilling of the Grant
monument Three ofthem fell or were thrown
from their horses, one getting two tumbles.
All had their pretty clothes soiled, and one
had a leg injured. The Governor should have
his staff officers securely strapped on their
steeds before he starts them in another parade.
The Governor took no chances himself and
rode in q carriage.
