The elder Mrs. Bradbury was opposed
to reconciliation, but as she has de.

GOLD DEMOCRATS.

The gold democratic convention OF
Kentucky at Louisville yesterday was
Characteristic of the State in the way OF
enthusiasm. Messrs, Carlisle, Waiter
son, Lindsay, Breckenridge, and others
asserted that they are the standard
bearers Of true democracy in that State,
and grieve over wanderers who "wor-
SHIPPED silver image" Their speeches
were greeted with uproarious enthusi-
asm.
James G. Simms was made tempo.
rary chairman, and delivered an ad-
dress. "There was time in Israel"
he said. when the timid thought that
all had gone astrsy after Baal, but God
had even in that dark hour preserved
unto himself 900 who had never kiss
ed the idol or bowed the knee to Basl.
In Kentucky there are to-day $4,000
true and tried democrats who have
never wandered away from the true
faith, and never have in the past and
will never in the future bow the knee
to agarianism, populism, socialism,
mobism, or Organism"
Among the planks of the plat.
form adopted were the following:
1--WE denounce the free and unlimit-
ed coinage Of silver as inevitably pro-
ducing silver monometallism, and We
advocate gold standard and the coin.
age OF silver to the requirements of
commerce as Offering the only means Of
maintaining blmetallism and denounce
any attempt to fix the ratio between
the metals arbitrarily by law without
reference to their commercial value, as
unsafe and dangerous to public welfare
and private interests.
"The democrats of Kentucky renew
their allegiance to the principles of
true democracy as exempliied by the
administration of Grover Cleveland,
and rs illustrated by his eminent Sec
rotary of the Treasury, John G.. Car
Isle, and pledge themselves to renew
ed and unceasing efforts to embody and
substsntiate them in the national
policy"
8At the evening session Hon. James
r. Hindmsn. of Adair county, WAS
unanimously nominated on the first
ballot for clerk of the court of appeals.
after which the convention adjourned.

JUDGING FROM the foreign appoint
ments Mr.. Mckinley has already made,
it is only a fair presumption that Mr..
Hanna, who bought both his nomina-
tion and election, has little or no use
for native born Southern republicans,
for, to no one of them, 80 far as can be
called to mind at the instant, mas an
appointment of that kind been given.
There are some very worthy Southern
republicans, but Mr.. Hanna evidently
doesn't think 30; On the contrary, he
must entertain the same opinion ofthem
that Mr.. John Wise once expressed
that they are apostates for the price Of
their apostacy; the effects Of which
opinion Mr.. Wise himself has recently
experienced, as chickens always come
home to roost.

ACCORDING to some Northern papers,
the republican managers of the two
houses of Congress can't agree upon
the sugar schedule of the new tariff
bill. This would be good news, if true,
for the reason that when rogues fall
out, honest men get their dues, but
sad experience proves that such repub.
lican disagreements are only developed
for the purpose of affording those en-
gagged in them opportunities for profit
ing, and that they are always settled as
the trusts and monopolies wish them
TO be.

Crime OF A STRANGLER.-FolloWing
last week horrible murder of 7-year-
old Edna Crider, near Haneyville, on
the border of Williamsport, Pa, comes
the news of another murder, this time at
Hillse rove, Sullivan county. The vic.
tim is 15.year-old Mamie Dovit, whose
BODY W as yesterday found in the woods
on the banks of Loyalsock creek.
John L'ovit, the girls father, and a
foreigner who was the lover of the girl
are now in Jail at Laporte charged
with the murGer. The last seen of the
girl was Sunday afternoon, at which
time her brother saw her crossing q
field in the direction of the spot she
was found. Ike girl was in delicate
condition, her be!rayer being the lover.
An inc ue5t was held under the direc.
ton of Justics of the Peace Speaker.
DR.. Gam bile, who made post.mortem
examination, found the girl had been
strangled to death. Black blotches on
the throat, where the fingers of the
murderer clutched his victim, were
startling evidences of this theory.
The body of the girl was found by
SamueE NlcBridge, in whose employ
Mamie, hs d been as domestic. On the
side of the girls body and along her
right leg were ugly bruises, showing
she had either been terribly kicked or
beaten. Last Saturday the girls ia Their
declared to her lover that he would
have to marry her.
The tH o men became involved in q
FIGHT, and the girl separated them.
Suspicion attaches to the father from
the fact that he was last seen with
Mamie Sunday afternoon in the neigh
borhcod in which her body was found.
No attempt was made to conceal the
corpse.
