Got Their Eyes Skinned.

Ever since Messrs. Cable and Riley
announced that they would retire
from the race for State Senator in
the 9-l4th district and allow the
republican nominee to be selected
from the sons of Fairfield county,
the bee has been heard buzzing in
the hats worn by eligibles.
The declaration of Riley and Gable
was simply one step taken towards
the earring out of an agre ement
T Tade at the senatorial convention
held in Athens about two years ago.
At that time Mr.. George w. Moss Of
this city, was an aspirant and the
Fairfield delegation were largely for
their candidate.
Moss was induced to withdraw in
order to preserve harmony, under
the promise of the party leaders and
delegates, from the southern counties
that they would endorse land support
him in 1899. Since that time Col.
Moss has considered the plum his'n,
as soon as it was ripe for plucking.
The Col. was somewhat amazed, a
day or two ago, when we'll written
editorial appeared in the Gazette,
outlining the situation, and giving
what the writer thought were the
necessary qualification, for winning
candidate, closing the article by
naming Attorney Joseph s. Sites as
the coming candidate. Moss declares
that Joe wrote the article himself.
1t Is also intimated that editor n.
w. Griswold of the Gazette has heard
the senatorial bee in his hat, too.
We presume that there will be
several others out for the nomination
before the next moon. It's sort of
snap, for the Legislature is only in
session few weeks, but the salary
goes steadily on to the end of the
term.
The Democrats are perfectly will
ing to sit back and watch the fight,
until the proper time comes, and
then some good Democrat will be
elected to the office Of State Senator
for the 9-14th district.--Lancaster
Democrat.

Warning to Little Girls.

On Monday Judge Riason had be-
fore him case of considerable i'm
portance and warning to children.
Lilly Comstock, aged IA, was ar
rested for assaulting a little Mathi.
OFT girl, aged 12. The assault was
admitted ano the former consigned
to the reform school at Delaware.
Not so much was this punishment
inflicted for the offense alleged, but
il was proven that the Comstock
girl has become uncomfortable by
her parents, and persistent at run
aing at large upon the street, with
no regard for the kind admonition
of her mother.
In passing the punishment Judge
Riason gave the little girl much
good advice, which would have
been wholesome food for many
other children who disregard the
kindly words of their parents. 1t
may serve as warning to children
to not take their spite out on little
schoOlmates by slapping and
pounding them, and will be a re.
minder for children to learn to
control their tempers and be peace
full. Above all it is a lesson fol-
little boys and girls to mind theil
parents and keep off the streets al
night. The Judge has cautioned
the police to bring before him all
wayward boys and girls who are
disobedient to their parents ol
teachers, and he will enforce the
law and send them to the reform
schools. Judge Riason is a gooc
man and likes little children, bu
they must be good and mind thei
mothers or he will have to punish
them according to law.

entury she walked life's pathway

century she walked life's pathway
alone.
Four generations survive her,
two daughters, Miss Ann Webb
and Mrs. Kate Denton, and four
stepdaughters, ten grand children,
twenty four great grandchildren
and three great great grand
children.
She was a member of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church almost eighty
years, loyal and true to the last.
Notwithstanding her great age her
mind was clear and strong until
near the last. She talked freely of
death and eternity and for many
days longed and prayed to be at
rest. Death came not through the
ordinary channels OF disease but as
maturity comes to the ripened
fruit, so came death at the end of
life's long, long summer day and
peacefully and calmly she went in
TO the place of many mansions.
A singular coincidence is found
in the fact that her 9th birthday
proved to be the day of her birth
into the heavenly life. Many re.
latives and friends will recall with
melancholy pleasure the happy
gathering of a year ago when we
met at the home Of the deceased to
celebrate her 96th anniversary.
The day was greatly enjoyed by
all, but most Of all by her who was
the object of supreme interest and
admiration, for many days she
lived in the sunshine of that happy
reunion. But an infinitely grander
and happier reunion awaited her
next anniversary, when a mighty
host of friends and loved ones, long
gone before swept down the shin
ing way to meet her at the pearly
gates and bid her "welcome home."
The funeral services were held at
the M. E. church March End con-

Mustered Out,
Are Captain w. j. Ryan and his Sec
retary, Mr.. Orlie Wright.

On Thursday evening OF last week
there returned to Logan, from Sa-
vanah, Ga, Captain w. ]. Ryan and
his secretary, Orlie Wright, who
have been mustered out OF the SER
vice of Uncle Sam 10 the Spanish
American controversy.
Captain Ryan and his secretary
left here in August and took charge
Of the Commissary Department of
the 10th army corps in General
Fitzhugh Lees army. They were
latterly stationed at Savannah where
Captain Ryan was not only captain
of the commissary but was COM
missioned ordinance officer, with
full power and double duty. His
- duties were ardous and responsible,
and according to the regards OF his
superiors presented to him, he must
certainly have filed the position to
perfection. We predicted, when
Captain Ryan was entrusted with
the responsible position that he
had, that he would do himself proud
In any capacity his superiors placed
him. He made good sheriff of our
county, and now comes back to US
with renewed laurels OF mastering
the trust reposed in him. We re-
jOice with the captain and his sec
retarv in their return in good
health to their friends and
loved ones, and In behalf Of
the people, thank them for as
sisting to hold upon a high plain
the good reputation Of old Hooking
in military and national circles.

GREENBACKS
or Government Money.

At close of our Civil War in 1866,
there appeared in the London Times
the following:
"If that mischievous financial pol
icy which had its origin in the NORTH
American Republic during the late
Civil War in that country, should be.
come indurated down to fixture,
then that government will furnish its,
money without cost. 1t will have all
the money that is necessary to carry
on its trade and commerce. 1t will
become prosperous beyond precedent
in the history of civilized nations of
the world. The brain and wealth of
all countries will 60 to North America.
THAT GOVERNMENT MUST BE
DESTROYED OR 1T WILL DE-
STROY EVERY MONARCHY ON
THIS GLOBE"
The famous Hazard circular, to
capitalists in New York, and the Buell.
Bank circular to United States Bank
ers, both emanating from London, and
the fabulous corruption fund raised in
England and Germany, estimated at
81, 500, 900, were the agents that Sc
cured the closing of our mints against
silver.
The "walk into my parlor" policy
of England, during and since the
Spanish War, is the latest evidence
of English Diplomacy in shaping the
destiny of the United States Govern
ment.
Notwithstanding the famine price
of wheat, the Spanish War, and fabu-
lous expenditures of money by our
government during the past year, gold
has increased in value eleven per cent.
and all other values decreased in the
same proportion.
For thorough understanding of
! the money question, or silver issue,
/ the Cincinnati Enquirer has uniformly
given evidence Of its ability to teach,
explain and produce all facts and
truth. 1t is a paper that ought and
can be read by all classes with pleas
ure and profit.

the scarcity Of bills Of small denolalna-

This lack Of small bills u due in
some parts Of the country TO, the fact
that the bankers don't take Il trouble
10 send in their bills Of large denomiua-
tons and get small ones in exchange.
This is the case nearly everywhere ex-
cept in the larger cities of the east and
the northwestern states.
I'm the northwest there has been such
a wave Of prosperity during the last two
years that the bankers and merchants
have had no occasion 10 send their
money east. as they did inpreyious years
they are rich enough to keep their money
at home
There was lack 81 small bills ia
this city up to few months ago, hat
now the bankers. merchants and husi-
ness men Of every kind have all the
small bills they want They have got
them by sending in their larger hillA
The revenue stamps ON checks have
probably something 10 do with bringing
into more general use the smaller BILLS
The reason we cannot issue the small
Ter bills as fast n the bankers want
them is because we are restricted by
law. The law allows Us 10 issue 8iB p
900. 900 in Uuited States notes, and tie
silver certificates ATE restricted by the
number Of standard dollars held IN the
