PROPHETIC WORDS.

The last speech Jefferson Davis
is known to have made has been
discovered and made public by the
Augusta Chronicle. 1t was to d
political gathering at Mississippi
City in 1888, and is interesting in
view of recent developments:
"The faces | see before me are
those of young men; had not
known this / would not have APP
peared before yor. Men in whose
hands the destinies of our Southland
lie, for love of her 1 break my
silence to speak to you few words
of respectful admonition. The past
is dead; let it bury its dead, its
hopes and its aspirations; before you
lies the future "a future full of
golden promise; future of recon-
pense for honorable promise; a
future of expanding national glory
before which all the world shall
stand amazed. Let me beseech you
to lay aside all rancor, all bitter sec
tional feeling, and to take your
places in the ranks of those who
will bring about a consummation
devoutly to be wished reunited
country" These sentiments were
among the best that ever fell from
the lips of Jefferson Davis.

SEND THEM HOME,

That is What Congressman steele Wants
Done With the Soldiers.
Major Steele has written letter &c
Adjutant General COrbin suggesting
and strongly urging that instead of re-
moving the soldiers to camps in Ten.
nessee. Kentucky and Pennsylvania
they should be given furloughs and
allowed to come home. 1t is pointed
out that after the long period of wait
ing, and after the keen disappointment
that comes of their failure to see active
service, the men naturally are keeniy
anxious to get away from all of it and
that the records will be cleaner if the
men are allowed to come home until
such time as it is decided whether their
services are needed or whether they are
to be mustered out.

nominated by the populists and
shortly afterward the democrats
nominated him. According to re-
cent law, no candidate can have his
name under more than one party
emblem. Hence, Cheadle was
obliged 10 choose between the dem
ocratic and populist nominations
He accepted the honor from the
democrats. This has angered some
of the populists and yesterday the
chairmen of the several counties
with the exception of Carroll coun-
ty, assembled at Frankfort and
nominated @. M. Thompson, q
school teacher of Upton. While
most of the populists will stay with
Cheadle, there will doubtless be a
sufficient number of votes for
Thompson, to insure the return OF
Mr.. Lands, the republican nomi-
nee to the lower house.

Plymouth Ready for the Preachers

Rev. Smith stated preliminary to his
sermon Sunday that the methodists
have been organized in Plymouth for
62 years and that the conference next
month would be the first methodist
conference ever held in this city. 1t is
not likely that Plymouth will be fav-
ored again for at least quarter of a
century. Some of the ministers pre-
fer to hold the conference in cities that
have sufficient hotel accommodations,
where they can go and pay their own
expenses. However this idea has never
become popular with the laymen. The
people of Plymouth have responded
nobly and the preachers will be cared
for properly. Those who have not con-
eented to take the preachers into their
homes have in many instances con-
tributed money. Rev. Smith is elated
over the prospect for first class enter
tainment during the conference.

resign 10 the near futYre. He has bad
an offer to assume the pastorship in
Woodland, st. Joseph county. If the
next few weeks bring forth develop
ments which are expected, he will TT

at least three more weeks in compliance
with the church canon which states
that all designations must be an
nounced at least three weeks before
the minister leaves.

WOULD BE BETTER.

Both parties are badly divided on
the question of extending the terri
tory of the United States and it is
likely to be made very much of a
party issue. If it is there will be a
good deal of shifting of party ALI
ances for party ties are resting very
loosely now on a large number of
American voters of all parties and
all classes. Nobody now believes
the country will go straight to the
deMnition bow-wows if the other
fellows carry the elections this fall.
Probably there has not been a time
since 1852 when there was less
political rancor in the country than
there is at this time and this feeling
seems likely to last for several
years. The mass of people seem
inclined 70 pay more attention to
business and less to politics and
probably this is a good thing for all
concerned .-Laporte Argos.

He Is Caught on q Nail While Sliding

Sherwood Tucker, the young son
of Landlord Tucker, of the Pretty lake
hotel met with one of the most painful
accidents Sunday that could be con-
ceived. He and a number of other
small boys were playing on the lake
property Of Fred Kuhn. The Tucker
boy climed tree and attempted to
slide down, when he was caught by a
nail which had been driven into the
tree, lascerating his abdomen and seri-
ously injuring the testicles. DIR. Viets
was summoned and dressed tee
wounds. The boy is getting along
quite well considering the nature of
the case.

feated him.

Those of our citizens who invest
ed in war bonds made good invest
ments. 1t is stated the bonds ar
already worth premium of S per-
cent, so that whoever invested $500
in bonds can now sell is right un-
der the allotment notice for $525.
While this is certainly good re.
turn for the money invested, there
is no doubt that the premium will
go higher. Brokers are buying
them up wherever they can, and in
the end but few will remain in the
hands of the people: If you bought
war bonds, keep them.

He Writes His Brother that He Killed

He Writes His Brother that He Killed
Two Indians.
DIR. A. j. Chittick, of Burlington.
near Logansport, received an interest
ing letter from his brother, Cash Chit
tick, in Alaska, telling of fight with
the Indians of that country. Writing
from Dawson City, Mr.. Chlttick says:
Il got here July 3, after long, danger
Gus trip. In writing to the papers |
did not tell all, as lots of people would
say it was lie. We were camped with
the Tonansh tribe of Indians, who
were helping our party through the
country. They were at war with
another tribe known as the Silk Indi-
ans, fact we did not know. One day
the Silks came over from White river
in great force and attacked our camp.
Our Indians told us not to fight any, as
they did not want the Silk Indians TO
get mad at white men, so we held off
worst of it. Then our party, which
was we'll armed, pitched in and turned
the tide of battle. Our loss was four
Indians killed and six wounded
The enemy withdrew, leaving nine
dead on the field and four so badly hurt
that their friends could not get them
away. The Silk Indians could cut
light our escort, but when we four
white men opened fire they fell pretty
fast. | carried an Odd-caliber gun, and
in walking around among the dead
found two of my bullets in the bodies,
to think l did my share of the kill
ing. After the fight every Tonanah
Indian camp we came to made US a big
feast, gave us fine presents and big
escort to the next camp. This is an ex
perience not many Klondlkers have
had" The Chittick boys own consid-
cradle property in the gold fields, in
Guiding mining claims and real estate
in Dawson City.
Harry Sherwin, of Russiaville, How
ard county, son of Postmaster E. w.
Sherwin, of that place, writes home
from Lake Linderman as follows:
Thirty Klondikers came out on the
first boat, bringing out about $780,
600. Il suppose it will be reported
$6,OOO000 in the Seattle and other pa
pers.) 1t is estimated that twenty tons
of gold will be brought out this fall.
There are about ten thousand people in
Dawson City, all standing around look
ing at each other, with nothing to do.
The country around Dawson has been
worked to exhaustion within a radius
of one hundred miles. Provisions are
CHEAPER in Dawson than here. Flour is
Sc per hundred, with everything else IN
proportion. AT last report whisky was
S75 to 1925 per gallon, but that price
will not hold up long. July 2 | made
trip to Dyea. While on the road at
times would cross snowdrifts at least
twenty feet deep, and in less than ten
minutes walk gather a bouquet of
wild flowers, so you see we had snow
balls and vildfiowers for the Fourth of
July. Alaska is the garden spot of
the earth for that. l gathered bou-
quet the other day and counted twenty
three varieties. and several kinds l did
not get. While at Dyea l ate lettuce
that was grown there; also some rad
ishes that we're home grown"

The POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS.

An Indianapolis correspondent
says each party will open its cam
paign about Sept. 10. Former
President Harrison and Senator
Fairbanks will lead for the Repub-
licans and Senator Turpie and form.
er Governor Matthews for the Dem
ocrats. The most direct issue pre-
sented by the two platforms is the
money question. Democrats favor
the unlimited coinage of silver and
gold ut a ratio of 10 to I, while the
Republicans favor the establishment
of the gold standard. There is lit.
tie variance of expression on the
war question, each party taking to
itself credit for being in favor of
the vigorous prosecution of the war.
There is little controversy as to
tate issues. The Republicans takes
credit for the enactment of several
laws by the last Legislature and the
Democrats were kind enough to in.
dorse the same laws. Special atten-
ton is to be devoted by each of the
parties to the legislative contests.
The party that wins in these con.
tests will name a United States
senator.

PLANS AGAINST HAVANA.
When the Time Comes n Formidable Army
Will Move Against the Cuban
Metropolis


Washington. July 26.-No. short of
ten weeks, probably 1a weeks, will the
campaign against Havana be begun,
but when the time comes to move il is
confidently anticipated the expedition
will be SO complete in all its parts,
and so formidable in its efficiency that
the brilliant success will perch upon
its banners in the briefest possible
period. From 75, 900 to 100, 600 troops
will probably compose the invading
army. The demonstration will be so
overwhelming in point of strength as
TO give no hope or excuse for pro-
tracted resistance. The army will be
supported by feet whose task will
be the reduction OF the forts
which encircle Havana Weak
ened by hunger. dispirited by
continued reverses, the Spanish
troops, it is believed, will be only too
glad to surrender to superior forces,
and Blanco will not hesitate to offer
his sword to Fitzhngh Lee, who, it is
understood, is to have the honor of re.
ceiving it. The president hopes to
send a message to congress in Dece N.
