Keifer Urged to Accept Adju-
tant Generalship.

Columbus, O., Dec. l4.-Speculation
still plays fast and loose with whom
Governor-elect Nash will appoint as
the Adjutant General under his admin
istratlon, and, while nothing can be
said with certainty, many still cling to
the idea that General Keifer of SPRING
field, will have the proper induce
ments brought 10 bear to change his
mind and influence him to take the
place 1t is certain that Judge Nash
was in doubt in his own mind regard
ing the matter when he left for Wash
ington, and had determined upon none,
preferring to wait until General Keifcr
had been given time to further con-
slider the advlsabilty of accepting the
appointment.
The presence in the city of a number
of the members of the last Legislature,
who have been elected to seats in the
incoming General Assembly, led to "a
meeting this afternoon to decide upon
the time for the holding of the caucus
of the Republican members and to Sc
lect a member to issue the call Rep
resentative Joseph Breck, of Cleye-
land, was chosen for the latter duty.
1t was decided to hold a caucus Sat
urday afternoon at 2 o'clock, in the
hall Of the House of Representatives.
Stacey Rankin, of Clark, presided to-
day and Fred Haywood, of Franklin,
was Secretary, Those present outside
of these were l. f. Chapman, Gallia;
Lot Davies, Jackson; w. G. McKin-
non, Ashtabula; A. G. Reynolds, Lake;
A. F. Mccormick, scioto, and Charles
Marion, Franklin.
One office Of the House has been de-
eided upon so far as can be before the
session. Andrew Jackson. Of Greene
county, will be Sergeant-at-arms. He
was caucus nominee Of the Republl-
cans two years ago, but was defeated
at the election.

sATuRpAY. DEC. Ie. Isee.

A special from Washington says that
John r. Mclean, the Ohio member OF
the Democratic National Committee, is
In favor Of late national convention,
to be held not earlier than Aug 1. 1t
will be remembered that John r. ia
vored this year the GAINESVILLE conven-
tion the last week in August, and now,
as then, he has some project on hand.
Mclean sees there is no hope of de-
feating President McKinley's re-elec-
ton, as the political situation stands
today He favors a late convention,
trusting for something to turn up to
recoup the fortunes of the fast fading
Democracy. BY holding the convention
late. the Democratic party may par
TALLY regain its senses and not nomin-
ate Bryan, and by that time the 16 to l
fad will be too dead to galvanize into
life again. Mclean thinks congress,
too, may possibly makea mistake next
summer that his party can take advan-
tage OF. Hence he wants the conven-
tion put off until August, and wants 1t
held in New York If he cannot secure
it for Cincinnati.
He is for Van Wyck or German for
President. He says that if either of
them are nominated the Democracy
can, in his opinion, carry New York,
Connecticut, Indiana and New Jersey,
with all the once slave states, as well
as Oregon and California, which will
elect. Mclean says that if the conven-
tion is held as early as June or before,
and Bryan is nominated, the election
will only be farce, simple taking OF
the census, as it were, with every
northern state for Mckinley, as well
as Maryland, Delaware, West Virginia
Kentucky, and likely two or three
more southern states-Ohio State

Maidens Us. WIVES.

THE Inevitable has eventuated The
war of woman upon woman in the dis
puted territory of industry has been
declared. Maidenhood has decreed to
matrimony that in the feminine fight
for independent maintenance there is
room for one only, and Shat one is her.
self. AS is most appropriate, this
movement has It's origin in Boston, the
home of the blue-stocking, Edward
Atkinson and other curios in the class
for feminine fusslness. 1t is inaug-
urated under the pretentlous title of
"The Association for the Preservation
OF the Rights of Unmarried Young
Women"
The resolutions of the organization
set forth that there are several thous-
and young women in Boston dependent
upon their own efforts to obtain a llv-
ing who cannot find regular employ
ment because of the married women
who take places in restaurants, depart
ment stores and factories for the pur-
pose of earning pin money" thereby
depriving the young women who need
the work Of employment.
1t is asserted that these married
women, assured of roof to cover
them, as well as something to eat, not
only take the work which the single
girls sorely need, but offer to work for
less than a single girl with no re-
sources whatever could work for and
keep body and soul together.
Even when these married women
forsake such employment they leave
their empoyer under the belef that
successor must work for the starvation
wages they received, and that is furth-
er demoraizing.
The result is foreordained from the
beginning. The language of the asso-
citation motto is the language of fate,

Editorial Afterthoughts.

All the war correspondents agree
that Lord Methuen moves slowly.
That is, when he moves forward.
With the solid South against him,
it is hard to discover where Col. Bryan
will be able to cut much ice
1t is little strange that Gen.
Shafter has not yet asked the govern
ment to reinforce him with an autom-
obile.
Mr.. Roberts Will not help his own
case very much by trying to impeach
the character of the witnesses against
him.
The first hard blow at polygamy in
Utah was struck by Artemus Ward,
and it has been staggering ever since.
In the Nebraska senatorial contest
Mr.. Allen refuses to be side-tracked.
Is there no way by which he can be
dftched?
After five or six years of fault find
ing, Mr.. Wanamaker has at last found
something to commend. 1t is the de-
partment store.
1t is probable that the debate on the
currency bill is being rushed in order
to avoid taking any chances on the
possible return of Senator Allen.
Senator Mason should do something
TO prevent a further expansion of the
city limits of Chicago or he will soon
be facing a demand for Greater Cook

The 10th Century Question

The Roman Catholic Church, by a
recent decree, declares that the 20th
century begins January /, 1900. But
neither Popes nor churches can change
arithmetioal truth It is an established
fact of arithmetic that one hundred
years makes century; consequently
the first century was not completed un-
til the END Of of the 10Oth year, that
is December 31st, 100; and the second
century therefore began January 1st,
101.
In the same way it takes 1900 years
to make 1900 centuries; so that the
10Th century is not completed until
the END of 1900 years. not 1899 years,
which is December 81, 1900; and the
goth century Then begins on the next
day, viz: January /, 1901. b.
