THE DISPATCH MATTER.

The senior editor Of the ADVo-
CATE is connected with the suit
now pending in the Jefferson
Circuit Court, asking that the
Louisville Dispatch be placed in
the hands of a receiver. He is in
terested in the Dispatch Publish
ing Company exactly as he is in
his other business relations, for he
has stock in that company. What
ever comes out of this suit, wheth-
or it be for the uPbuilding Of the
Democratic party and the inter
ests of the Dispatch, he alone OF
this firm is responsible; There
are many of the stockholders dis
satisfied with the management of
this paper-we are not alone. 1t
has been circulated time and
again that the Dispatch is losing
from 81, 800 to 81, 400 every
month. This alone would be a
just cause for asking for receiver,
More than this, to February,
Ist, 1899, this company was in
debt nearly $40, 900. To this
amount add $50, 900 for the bond
issue and we have nearly 500, 900.
Is there a hnancier so acute in his
discerning powers, that could
show any man how this, or any
ether enterprise, could extricate
itself from such an oppressive bur
den?
Again, the Democrats of Ken
lucky, who have taken and paid
up stock to the amount of $685.
600, Of whom the senior editor is
Ole, have resting upon them
a double liability, and with
this debt on them, will be called
on to pay an additional S33, 900.
Can a debt of 500, 900, increasing
at the rate Of 81, 800 or SI,4oo per
month, be liquidated by such a
method
In the name Of justice, in the
name of common sense, and for
the honor and integrity of the
Democratic party, should such a
state Of affairs be allowed to con-
tinuep Who is at the head Of
this organ, and who is driving it
into an inextricable financial
abyss2

dent of this company, we have

The Dispatch, if it is a fact that
it has lost from 81 300 to $1,400 a
month since it started, is finan-
cial failure. Its opportunities
were most fattering, its friends
were everywhere, aud they were
working friends. 1t does appear
that the management tried to see
how bad it could fail.

as the financial director of the
Dispatch at loss Of from 81, 900

to direct the policy Of the organ,
voting against the very principles
it was created to espouse2 Is it
not best that a receiver be APP

The National Democrats have. use
fors a daily metropolitan organ,
conducted sol as to command the
confidence of the entire party.
The Dispatch cannot occupy this
position conducted as it now is.
Again, the Democrats of Ken
lucky, owners of the Dispatch,
are honoring and supporting with
their money and influence Colonel
Deitzman, a Republican. as bust
ness manager, and who was form
erly of the Louisville Commercial.
More than this, it is reported and
generally believed that Democrats
are being displaced in order to
give positions to Republicans on
the Dispatch. More than this,
and far more detrimental to Dem
ocratiC organization, it is believed,
and will be matter of proof, that
the Dispatch under its present
management has allied itself with
one of the strongest monopolies
Of this commonwealth, which
has and will dictate the policy of
the Dispatch. If the statements
alleged are proven, who is it that
becomes the wreckers of this Dem
ocratic organ and the interests of
it's stockholders? We ask the
Democrats and stockholders to
keep up with the proof from day
to day. We will have much more
to say as the case progresses and
ask the people, the lovers of Dem
ocracy, to go with us and look
upon the CHASTITY corpse wrecked
and ruined by fnancia and polit-
zeal pirates, who obtained position
by fraud and Misrepresentation.

COL. ]. ]. DONNtLY OF BENTON
His Remains Recovered in the Missouri
River and FittingIy Inferred.
IRiVer Press, Oct. L..

DIR. G. ID. Irutchrr returned to-day
Wednesday, with the human re-
mains found in the Missouri river on
Sunday last. upon which an inquest
WAS held and which were identified
as those of Col. j. j. Donnelly, who
mysteriOusly disappeared four weeks
ago. The remains indicated a de
terminpd case OF suicide. The de-
ceased had filed his pockets with
about fourteen pounds OF rocks, had
cut his throat from a tn ear, and
then completed the job oi self-de-
struction by drowning. The cor
oners Jury returned a verdict of death
by drowning and elf.inflicted iDjur-
les.
The remains were found on a sand
bar on the south side of the Missouri
river at the upper end Of the Lansing
ranch, and must have fioated some
60 miles from where the tragedy
occurred. The features had not been
mutilated as at first reported, n
the remains were easily recognizable
by any one acquainted with the de-
ceased, although they were badly de-
composed.
Col j. j. Donnelly was a native OF
Providence X. l., and was about CD
years of age. When the war broke
out he helped to organize the Four
teenth Michigan volunteer infantry
and served as captain of that regi-
ment until appointed an the STAFF OF
Gen. Thomas ms engineer officer, in
which capacity he served until he
became assistant general superin-
tendent of the military railway ser
vice i'm General Sherman's depart
ment. After the war he was appoin.
ted by Secretary Chase as special
agent OF the treasury department.
In 1866 he took a prominent part In
the Fenian raid into Canada from st
Albans, Vt. and was badly wounded
in the Pigeon Hill fight. He soon
afterwards came west to Pembina,
n. d., and i'm 1872 became a resident
of Fort Benton.
Col. Donnclly practiced law in thiS
city for many years and held several
public positions of responsibility and
ITuSt. Tie htENtu hF tltih NV "
corder and probate Judge of Choteau
county, was a member ofthe Twelfth
territorial Legislature and n schoseu
speaker Of the house OF representa-
tives. He had a large circle oI
friends who deeply regretted his un'
fortunate Affections of the past few
years and who will be grieved to
hear of his terrible end.
The remains Of the late Col. JnO
j. DOnnelly were inferred in River
