TO OUR ST. CLAIR BRETHREN

! The democratic party OF Bates
county sends greeting to brother
democrats of ST. Clair and presents
for their consideration the name of
its favorite son, the Hon. w. W.
Graves for Circuit Judge. The
overwhelming majority he received
in our convention over his distin-
guished opponents show the high
regard entertained for him at home
as a citizen and lawyer as well as a
true, loyal and working democrat.
He is we'll known to the citizens
of your county, having practiced
law at your bar for a number of
years, and while his legal attainments
have attracted your admiration, his
genial manners, honorable demeanor
and whole souled, generous nature
has found response in the breasts of
many and he claims among you his
warmest friends.
In urging the nomination of Mr..
Graves we do not underestimate the
claims of the other gentlemen, whose
names will 60 before that conven-
tor. But we claim that in legal
ability he is the peer of any lawyer
in the state He possesses an ana
lytical mind, is a close and hard stu
dent, with clear and precise ideas
and the gift of making all points
clear and distinct to his auditors
He possesses a judicial tempera-
ment, with strong discriminating
powers He is fair, honest and hon
orable and would make judge that
would be pride to the people of
his circuit. We regard him as the
coming man from this section of the
state and predict that IN time he
WILL wear the ermine Of our highest
judicial Office.
Give Mr.. Garves this nomination
and the people of the circuit nor the
democratic party will ever have
cause to regret it.

MAGNIFICENT SERMON.

The spectacle OF a captain OF
great battle ship, surrounded by his
men, with barred heads, thanking
God for the great victory, after
passing through a baptism of fire,
must be an inspiring scene, though
unfortunately rare of occurrence.
And yet that was what took place
on board the battleship Texas after
the fierce conflict which wagsd for
over an hour and which ended in
the humiliation of four armored
cruisers, the flower of the Spanish
navy, and two torpedo boats Capt.
Phillips gathered his men about
him, smoke begrined, with the fire
of battle still in their eyes and their
faces showing their Civilizations, he
called upon them to uncover their
heads and bear witness that he be
lieved in God and was not ashamed
to own Him. That he wished to give
thanks for the great victory He had
given without the loss of life to his
men. Is there any wonder that vic
tory comes 20 such mel! With a
praying president in the White
House to issue his proclamation,
calling the nation to give thanks to
Almighty God for the victories of
our army and navy and a people
who respond to such call with full
and devout hearts, is there any
wonder that the Great Ruler of the
Universe is on our side assisting US
to fight our battles? The example
and words of Captain Phillips was
magnificent sermon.

SENATOR KENNY ON TRIAL.
He is the First United States Senator Ever
Arrested on a Criminal Charge.

Arrested on a Criminal Charge.
Wilmington, Del, July IA
trial probably unprecedented in the
annals of this country, that OF
member of the United States Senate
Oh criminal charge, began in the
United States Circuit Court in this
city this afternoon before Judge
Edward G.. Bradford.
The defendant is Richard Rolin
Kenny of Dover, junior United
States Senator from Delaware, in
dicted upon a charge of aiding and
abettipg William n Boggs, who has
confessed TO robbing the First Ma
tional Bank of Dover, of which
institution he was paying teller, of
the sum of 100000 The counts in
the indictment TO which Senator
Kenny has pleaded not guilty charge
him with aiding and abetting Boggs
TO the extent of about 5000.
Two men, Ezekiel T. Cooper of
Milford and Thomas S Clark of
Dover, have already been convicted
of similar charges. and are now serv-
ing terms of Is months and five
years, respectively in the New
JERSEY Penitentiary.
Boggs was the principal witness
for the prosecution il each case.
His story was to the effect that the
greater part of his steslings were
expended in stock speculations and
gambling, and that in the stock
speculatIons the defendants were
associated with him by participating
in his deals, and that they gave him
their checks when they had no funds
in the bank, Boggs taking care of
them from the banks funds.

As soon as the non.comb atants
left the city of Santiago, the dis.
patches say the Spanish soldiers
began a systematic plundering of
the dwellings, vacated under the
pretext that they were hunting
something to eat. Outgoing refugees
were allowed 10 take away a little,
but no more than could be carried
on the person, so the road leading
through the American lines is filed
with unhappy wayfarers. Delicate
women wearing their dearest fineries
and with lots of money in their
pockets are fording streams and
resting often by the roadside, having
to beg food from the soldiers. The
Red Cross society is doing all in its
power to alleviate their suffsrings,
but the task is a great one, as there
are thousands of these people who
have been driven from the fated city
to escape the fierce bombardmsnt
by the American army.
