Americanism VS.. Imperialism.
Rev. t. L. Cuyler in the Evangelist.

Let our people distinctly all understand
that imperialism necessitates an enormous
standing army, after the fashion of Germany,
and an enormous navy, with its heavy taxation
on the labor of our people. Worst of all, it
changes the whole character of our hitherto
peace-loving nation, and it enthrones mill
tarism as a permanent and dominant prinei-
pie !! Disguise it as they may, and blink at it
as they may, that is the cataract toward
which the rapids of this new imperialistic
mania are rushing US |! One of the ablest i'm
perialists exclaimed the other day, sour
American Republic is casting off its swaddling
clothes of babyhood, and already stands up as
an international giant armed cap pie I :"
There are some of us who have supposed that
the mission of our beloved land was to work
out the great vital problem of intelligent Re-
publican self-government before the world.
and that we are by no means a baby at the
business of instructing the old monarchies of
Europe and Asia. To follow in their old
beaten track of governing by the sword has
not been the noble and sublime purpose of the
repnblic of Washington and Lincoln-the re-
public which bases its life on the bedrock of
popular intelligence, peaceful industry and
Christian conscience. We have too many
tremendous problems to settle here at home
without having the peoples attention land
that of the churches also) all absorbed by
vexing and distracting perplexities over for
eign possessions.

We call attention to two articles in tins
issue from the Philadelphia, Pa, Ledger,
and ask for them careful reading. The
Ledger is the leading Republican paper IN
Pennsylvania, and was one of the most ardent
supporters of the late President Grant its
editor being member of the weIl.known
'.3O6' organization. 1t is owned and con-
trolled by the Drexels Of that city, who have
worldwide reputation as bankers and finan :
ciers. The Ledger is always reliable and
fearless, and its bitterest political opponents
give it credit for its honesty. 1t has no use
for big metropolitan lingo journals and rare
ly ever quotes from the speeches or editorials
of those who fight their battles with their
mouths or pens at safe distance from the
enemy

Republican Row in Howard.

The Republicans in Howard county held
their Congressional primaries last Saturday.
There was considerable friction IN several
districts over local supremacy. In the olNth
district, where the respective friends OF Harry
Huobes and Frank j. Oldfeld, chairman OF
the Republican county committee, crossed
swords, or more correctly speaking, "n'gger'
bead'' stones, the contest surpassed IN inter-
est anything of the kind recently seen even Ill
Howard county politics.
1t having been reported that trouble was
expected in the Sixth, the adherents OF the
opposing factions were early on the ground
As early as noon bands of colOred men, from
all directions, began coming 10 Gulltord, ana
by 2 o'clock, when the polls opened, over 3oo
persons we're present. There was consider
able wrangling over the voting throughout the
afternoon. When at last the poll was counted
and it was found that the friends OF Oldheld
had won by nearly two to one, much BAD reei'
ing was manifested by the Hughes adherents.
Hughes Judges finally refused to sign the re-
turns. Then what had been brewing all the
afternoon took place The location was all
that could be desired. The County CommIs
sioner's had just finished at that exact point
a section of stone road, and the broken pieces
of '.nigger head" lying around loose furnished
the exact munitions of war needed. In the
final wind-up the Oldfeld faction were agar
the victors.
In the County Convention in EIhcott CITY
on Monday, Oldfeld presided. After some
squabbing over the credentials of the dele
gates the Hughes faction left the hall an(
formed another convention. Two sets OF del
egates will therefore attend the Congressional
Convention where the fight will probably be
ranawpd

Mercer county, Pa, was visited by terrific storm
on Sunday night. No less than a dozen barns and
several houses were destroyed by lightning. The
crops are in many sections totally destroyed.
Thousands facres of wheat and other grains were
blown down and torn out of the ground. Railroads
were washed out in many places, and one train
was ditched at Hubbard. 1t was the most disas-
trous storm that has occurred for years

State conventions. after continuous SEES
sion during the night reached an agree
ment on the head of the ticket. Follow
ing are the nominees:

list. Auditor; w. +. Porter, Populist.
Secretary of State; c. j. Smythe, Dem

All excepting Poynter and Cornell are
the present incumbents.
All are Populists but the
Lieutenant Governor, who is Free
Silver Republican. and the Attorney
General, Democrat.
Mr.. Poynter may be regarded as a
dark horse, though his name had been
mentioned before the. convention. The
chief antagonism to his nomination came
from the Democrats who held ont
against him as Populist of the radical
stripe for ii time. but finding that the
Populists would not withdraw him, and
that he professed to be lifelong Demo
crat. Of Kentucky Democratic paren-
tagc they finally acquiesced.
The Democrats sent the following
