U. s. A. T. BADGER IN FEAR OF REED

abandoning his Presidential ambition
Reed has merely shifted his ground t,

| Governor Roosevelt's admirers also
are not overjoyed at having a Repub

State. They fear he may stand in the
way of their favorite when the time
comes for New York to select candi-
dates.
| Senator Platt's friendship for the
former Speaker is looked upon as an
element of danger in the situation

was no secret that he was really for
Reed. Though he has made his peace
with President Mckinley and is now
House, the Presidents friends have not
forgotten the bitter assaults which he
made upon President Mckinley before
the st. Louis Convention.
! They are disinclined to credit the
financial reason given by Reeds friends
for his removal to this city. They say
he was receiving a comfortable in
come, and that he would not have
withdrawn from his position of power
and influence in Washington merely fol
the sake of increasing it. They sus-
pect that a secret understanding eX-
lists between him and Senator Plat
whereby the fight which was lost in
1896 will be renewed next year.
With the seventytwo delegates OF
New York at his back Reed would be
a much more formidable candidate fol

 It seems pretty well authenticated that the human voice is capable of starting an avalanche. James Perch ard. clerk of the state Court of Appeals of one Of our western states, was min- ing some years ago in a mountainous region. The snow had fallen to an un- usual depth and miners moving from one cabin to another were warned to i look out for slides He stopped on one Of his trips at the cabin Of an acquaint- anee and took dinner with him and his wife. At the close of the meal his host urged him to stay awhile, but he felt nervous and started on his journey. Crossing the canyon. he looked back at the cabin where the man and his wife were standing at the door He waved his hand and shouted good-by. Hardly had the echo of his voice died away before q mufled noise struck his cara noise like the boom of a can non-and in five seconds the cabin was buried under fifty feet of snow. As sistanee was summoned and finally the two dead bodies were taken out. There is little question that under certain conditions the vibrations of the human voice will produce an avalanche.

Sam Jones.

The large court room was packed
and damned last night by people anx-
ious to hear the lnimitable Sam Jones.
We frequently read this mans Won
derful lectures and sermons, but it is
impossible to get the full benefit OF
them unless you hear the man. Sam
Jones is not a preacher who goes about
with face as long as we'll rope, nor
does he sport the lOng-tail coat, but
when it comes to fighting the devil,
he can deal his Satanic majesty such
telling blows as are seldom delivered.
He goes for the frOnt-Seat fraud, or
Sunday-Only christian, the miSer, the
whisky seller, the liar, etc, etc, with
words which cannot be misunderstood.
If every preacher and every law
loving citizen of Lancaster were to
work aga nSJ sin with the earnestneSs
and vigOr that Sam Jones does. this
town would soon be too good for earth
and have to be removed to the bett.r
land. 1t is to be deplOred that we do
not have more men that will cLme out
fiat-foOted against crime and hyIOc-
risy. But it is just as he says; every
fellow is afraid that it "Will work
against his interest" to take prom =
inent part in fighting sin. The lect-
ure was greatly enjoyed, though we
suppose there are few of the kiC-
glove cOrn-cob.osityites whose mod
esty l?) revolted against Mr.. Jones'
plain talk. 1t shocked their "mod-
eSty" because such Sap-heads have
nothing else to shock. We have to re-
move our old office apron to rub over
the pain caused by hearing people say
Sam Jones language is too course. God
hasten the day when every preacher
and every law-lOving citizen will pull
off his coat and fight for Christianity
and right with the same earnestness
as does Sam Jones.

a few telling blows for free silver, jol-
lied the crowd occasionally and closed
with a beautiful appeal to the party
to stand in line. Mr.. GOebel was then
called for. He thanked the Garrard
county democracy for standing by him
in the Louisville convention, and said
he now asked them to help elect him
governor. The time being limited,
Mr.. Goebel could only say 2 few

/ take the liberty of announcing to
you that 1 have engaged the services
of the Hon. A. A. Taylor, of Johnson
City, Tenn, to deliver his matchless
lecture, "Life'S Poetry and Pearls" at
the Court House Wednesday, Nov. l,
at p. m. AS Mr.. Taylor may be a
stranger to some of you desire to say
that his name became prominent to
the eyes of the people of the United
States when in 1886 he and his brother
Robert L. Taylor opposed each other
for the GOvernOrship, of Tennessee,
and made joint canvass Of the State,
the most noted GubernatOrial Contest
ever waged in the United States pop
ularized as ''The War of the Roses"
No contest was ever waged more en-
ergetically as they crossed swords and
clashed shields all over the state, but
to the credit of both, nothing was ev-
or said or done to break the amity be-
tween the two brothers. Mr.. Taylor
was a member of Congress from 1886
till he entered the lecture field. In
the year 1894 he and his brother, Gov.
Bob Taylor lectured In the South and
East jointly on the subject yankee
Doodle and Dixie.' For the past
three years he has been engaged in
preparing his lecture ''Life's Poetry
and Pearls" and as his tour of the
United States includes Lancaster you
will have the pleasure Of hearing him
early in the season while he is at S
best, have had the pleasure of heai :
ing him on two different occasions and
l regard him as one of the greatest
orators, II not the greatest, In the
United States. His lecture is hui
mOrous Astounding in high order OF
sentiment and truth, and encOuched
IN the purest diction that I have ever
heard.
AS l propose to donate part of tie
proceeds to the Library Of the Lam
ester Graded School am ANXIOUS to
have large house and guarantee that
all will be amply repaid who may hear
him. Resp'ty, ]. h. PATTERSON
