PREPARING FOR
THE SQUABBLE.
Politicians Lining Up for the
Kilgore Convention.
WILL THEY DOWN RUTANP
That Is the Question which Is Agitating
the Friends of r Foraker--The Situa-
tion Two Day Before the
Convention.
Special to News-Democrat.


Special to News Democrat.
Carrollton, Aug. 14-On the eve OF
the Kilgore convention the fight among
the Republican brethren shows no sign
of decrease. During the campaign pre-
ceding the late Republican primaries
the Hanna crowd didn't hesitate to
throw considerable slime at Rutan. In
Union township a prominent farmer
said Rutan was traitor" that he sold
out a certain convention, and he could
prove it. In Carrollton two rather
prominent church mmbers reported
that on the day of the primaries Ru-
tan gave John Beck, saloonist, some
money. The first of these stories was
sufficiently believed to lose Union town
ship for Rutan. Rutan has hired legal
counsel and has taken affidavits 'of
those to whom the statements were
made and also affidavits showing the
absolute untruthfulness of the state
ments and will now fight the slanderers
to finish in the courts.
"For ways that are dark and tricks
that are vain" the average Carroll
county Republican is peculiar. One of
the greatest surprises at the Republican
primaries was the vote of Augusta.
In that township everyone supposed
that N. L. Marshall would get substan-
TALLY the whole vote of the township
for auditor. That township adjoined
his own, where there were only six
votes polled against him. However,
when the vote was announced Mr.. Mar
shall was credited with 70 votes and
SO for Mr.. Stoody, a renegade Demo-
crat who had hardly been in the party
long enough to unpack his trunk. This
week they got to counting noses in Au-
gusta and found 1875 Republicans who
said they would make affidavit that
they voted for Marshall. In Sherods-
Vile more votes were polled than the
combined vote of all parties in 1885, In
the judge carried the ball
lot box and tally sheets away and
counted" them in private. When they
came back to announce the vote to the
politicians, it was found the
intelligent election officers had neglect-
ed to count the vote for certain can
didates. V. G.. Stoody for auditor car
ried all three of the precincts by ma
jority of over 200 over Marshall. In
the whole county it was only "a. Mr..
Marshall and his friends consider
Stoody's election to be by fraud and do
not hesitate to declare their intention
Of supporting the Democratic candi-
date.
Col. j. j. Gill, of Steubenville, is in

Why should Mckinley purchase a
house in Canton when what he really
wants is a longer lease where he is?-
Grand Rapids Democrat.
A longer lease is what he wants, but
it is pretty generally understood that's

provided a home for himself in Canton
where he will in all probability live
after March 4, 1901.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

imperfect hearing, and when IT is en-,

GOLD EXPORTS,
One Million Dollars to Be Shipped &c
Europe.

One Million Dollars to Be Shipped TO
Europe.
by Associated Press TO the journal.
NEW YORK, June S.--The Journal and
Advertiser SAYS: The announcement
that the National City bank would
ship $1,000, 900 in gold to Europe on the
steamship Lucania was considerable of
a surprise in Wall street. Although
sterling exchange has ruled rather high,
it has been maintained by bankers that
there was little likelihood of any gold
exports at the present time.
That shipment should be made by
the National City bank, which engineer
ed the payment of the Spanish indem-
nifty of S20, 100000 without sending gold
abroad up to the present time kills to
to some extent the force OF any argu-
ments witch may be based on the
shipment.
1.-THE view taken of the shipment by
conservative men is that the United
States is producing 600OO,O 900 gold an
nually and now has on hand more of the
precious metal than any other country,
and therefore can easily afford to send
several millions to Europe. Beside the
demand for exchange to Offset the pay
ment Of the Spanish indemnity, there
has been a fair increase in the imports
of finished goods from Europe which
must be paid for. This season of the
year is, furthermore, the period when
large sums are taken abroad by tourists
The exports of food products also de-
cline in the spring but this year are very
largely offset by exports Of American
manufactured goods. Europe has been
buying back large quantities of our
stocks which were sold here some months
ago, but has been steadily selling bonds.
