Mclean For Governor.

There seems to be a demand for
John r.. Mclean to become the dem
ocratic candidate for Governor in
Ohio. If Mr.. Mclean could be in
duced to accept the nomination there
is no doubt but that he could be cleo
ted. There is no more popular man
In either party in the State than John
r. Mclean. His kindness and liber-
ality to the needy at all times has
made him particularly strong with
the masses. And he has done
enough for his party through his
great and widely read newspaper to
entitle him to anything within it's
gift. Democrats throughout this
country will never forget the wonder
full fight Mr.. Mclean made for Bryan
in '96. The Enquirer was one of a
small number of leading newspapers
that supported Bryan and without
the Enquirer Bryan could not have
rolled mp the big vote that he did,
Republicans and Democrats alike
would vote for John r.. Mclean, the
philantrophist and friend of every
body.

A Warm Convention.

DELBwARE. June 29- The Demo-
cratic senatorial convention of the fif-
teenth and sixteenth districts was
held In this city to day. Senators
w. E.Miller Of Licking county, and
William Fink Of Perry county were
candidates for denomination. Ed
itorWilliam Lawrence of the Zanes-
vile Signal, Simeon Winn of Mus
kingum and Editor George l.. Dod-
gett of the Deleware Herald, were
also candidates.
From the commencement of the
balloting Lawrence and Miller held
the lead with honors swaying back
ward and forward until the eighty
eight ballot when Chairman An.
drews failed to hear challenge
from Muskingum county after its
chairman. Irwin, reported the coun-
ty's full vote tor Lawrence, which
adding to Perry county's thirty-one
votes, gave Lawrence just enough
to elect him. The vote was not reg
istered by the conventions secre-
tary, neither was it announced by
Chairman Andrews, but the nomin-
alton was announced by an unknown
voice and at the time a score or more
Lawrence advocates jumped onto the
stage.
The chairman left the stage in an
instant but returned after an eX-
citing scene. The secretary stated
he had not recorded the last ballot.
Upon this the chairman left and did
not return. Hon. Frank Marriott of
this city was chosen chairman and
on the second ballot George l.. Pad
gett, editor of the Delaware Demo-
cratic Herald, was nominated by 146
VI ties. Both factions contend for the
nomination.
Another convention will probably
be called as both men may with
draw.

that he is credited with lack of
sympathy with the Philippine
policy Of the administration, he did
not say "a word in the statement,
written for a paper he knew to be
friendly to him, personally as well
as politically. He didn't even
deny that he had protested, at a
Cabinet meeting against the Phil
ippine policy, but merely said that
he had never received any letters
from sailors, either about looting or
about firing on peaceable natives
in the Philippines. If he couldn't
say more, he would better not have
said anything. The country is al
ready surfeited with statements
that do not tell all the truth and
denials that do not deny.

HOOKING SenJlnelI
The shrewd republican editors,
conscious of the party demoraliza-
tion from the Cincinnati Enquirer,
in an attempt to recover by divert
ing attention from the fallen leaders
of their own party, are bowling at
John II. Mclean and picturing him
as the awful boss of Ohio democracy.
Some silly democrats listen to this
side show wall. The wise old >Ulys-
sess plugged the ears of his sailors
with wax lest they might hear and
be seduced by the voice of the Sy-
rens and thus passed safely Scylla
and Charibdes. The howls of the
ghouls, as we are moving on quiet
waters, should not disturb us and
democrats should put their fingers
in their ears ard keep their eyes on
our leaders and let the howls of the
hit and hurt go on unheeded.
The democratic party has no Boss.
We have many eminent men, many
wise and respected leaders. John
r.. Mclean is among our forem ost
and most faithful and influential
democrats our party can boast. His
paper is q tremendous power. In
the great Bryan c ,mpaign John r..
Mclean, through his paper, gave
Bryan a hearing to millions who
could not otherwise know that lead
ers views and acquaint themselves
with his distinguished personality.
He, more even than Bryan, had aud
ience from the people and ever since
then his wide sweep of wing in the
circulation of cosmopolitan paper,
encircles and guards and guides the
democracy of Ohio and this country.
1t is not only in politics that ] ohm
r. Mclean is man of observation
but in tender regard for the distress
ed his hand, though hard on the
enemy, is as open and tender as that
of a woman's charity. 1t is not for
gotten in our Valley when repub-
lcan policy brought distress and
hunger to the miners homes that
John r. Mclean sent car loads of
food for the starving. AT his own
expenses he sent shipments of coal
from the Jackson mines to relieve
the freezing poor of his city. These
things we only mention to show the
"weak side" of the man the republi.
cans are attacking and putting up
as buggaboo Boss to scare demo-
Gratis,
John r. Mclean is all right, a
right kind of a man, the right kind
of democrat. He will be in the
democratic convention. He will be
in Ohio politics. and the republicans
are only to sorry to know it.

wNen ,.eneraI rnnston rurns ,reacher.

General Funston is reported to
have written form Manila to friend
residing In Washington letter con-
tanning the following:
on general principles am otanex-
pnnslonist; but believe that since we
were, by nm unfortunate train of cir
cumstances, thrown into this thing,
we should stay with 1t to the bitter end
and rawhde these bul-head ed Asiatic
ruflians until they yeu for mercy. And
after the war want the job of profess
sor of American history in Luzon uni
versity when thcy built it--and I'll
warrant that the new generation of
Filipinos will know better than TO get
in the way of the band wagon of AN
glo-Saxon progress and decency.
General Funston is brave man,
whose Philippine career has justly
earned the admiration of his coun-
trymen. Conceding him this praise,
we confess to some curiosity as to
how thorough his teaching will be
when he obtains "the job of profess
sor of American history in Iuzon
university" We presume that he
will begin at the beginning He will
doubtless inform his pupils how the
spirit of independence in the Ameri-
can colonies gradually gathered
strength for hundred years, as it
has done in the Philippines, before
becoming robust enough to make an
armed resistance against tyranny.
He will explain how eventually this
spirit stood revealed in a document
called the Declaration of Indepen-
dence, which promulgated to the
civilized world the principle for
which the Filipinos are now con-
tending, that government derives its
Just powers from the consent of the
governed. He will explain to his
pupils how the colonists took arms
against their oppressor, as the Fill
pinos did against Spain; and how,
when Washington obtained an ally
in the person of Lafayette, the
French and Americans cemehted the
bonds of this alliance by fair treat
ment of one another. And then
Professor Funston will draw a strik-
ing contrast between the French
American alliance in 1776 and the
Filipino-A alliance in 1898.
He will show how the one was held
sacred and the other repudiated by
the Uuited States.
When his classes have gone as far
in American history as the Mexican
war Professor Funston will tell
them how the flag once fioated over
the City of Mexico, and then he will
explain why it was hauled down.
We hope that none of his pubils will
be unkind enough to ask him why
the lapse of half a century evolved
in America the doctrine that, once
raised, the flag could never be hauled
down-why the United States could
withdraw from Mexico, leaving
the foundation of a republic, but
could not withdraw from the Philip
pines. Other valuable lessons will
doubtless occur to Professor Funs-
ton, but it is probable that these will
keep him busy during the first few
years of his occupancy of the chair
of American history in the Luzon
university.
Meanwhile we are glad to learn
that General Funston is mot an eX-
parslonist on general principles" !"
but would like very much to know
where the consistency of his logic
comes in when he expresses himself
as radicle expansionist in the Phil
ippines.-Press.

Asks for Deputy Sheriffs.

Fred Dilcher is at Evansville, Ind,
in the thickest of the fight between
the operators and miners now being
waged at the latter place. The coal
miners strike has reached a serious
turn, and blood shed has already re-
suited. The operators have asked
for protection and the appointment
of deputy sheriffs to protect thier
property, and Dilcher has met this
by asking for the appointment 46
deputy sheriffs to protect the life of
his men and himself, claiming that
threats have been made against his
life, and the end is not yet.-Nelson-

called loudly for help. BY this
time his shanty, which stood four
feet from the ground, was filed
with water six feet deep and he
was hundred yards from dry
land. No one could reach him and
chorus of voices cried back "hold
on and try to climb tree" just
then something struck his place
and threw it and Chatfield's store

and started away. AT this the old
man cried again for help and sent
up fervent prayer to God, for he
thought his life was done, which

LOSSES.

hoe, 100000 or everything he had
including clothing. Stratton $4,000;
Huls hotel, $4,000, the water was
five feet in the building; cambridge

Croft, $25, G. Chatfield including
accounts, library ETC., $4,000; G..
Vansickle, $1,000. Others named
lost from fifty to hundred dollars.
The storm reappeared Saturday
evening and all the crops in this
section were destroyed by hail
stone, which fell as large as wal
nuts and laid four and five inches
deep on the ground. New Pitts
burg and the other towns on the
Brush Fork were flooded and in
jured by the hail. The lowest
figures at which the loss can be
placed at, is $4,000, this includes
crops, railroad washes and pro-
perty.
Some people are mean enough to
say they have prayed for ths de-
struction of this town and that God
has partly answered their prayers.
In our Judgement snch people are
full of the internal spirit and are
not worthy of the respect of yell
low dog. God doth no evil, neither
doth He think evil, and they that
accuse Him thereof, even though
they live in the city of Murray,
shall be rewarded accordingly. He
that pronounces curse upon his
fellow man, shall be cursed himself
and none shall pity him."

That Murray City'FiOOd.
As Described by Editor Chatileld in the
Murray City News.

"Tuesday afternoon of last week,
the heavens darkened over Murray
City and about three o'clock
heavy storm gathered in the north
and moved south where it fingered
until another dark and thunder
ing monster rose in the south west
and came like an unearthly mon
ster to meet the northern visitor
or intruder. like the giant heroes
of ancient Greece, they faced each
other with angry brows and made
ready to do battle. For two or
three hours they moved to and fro
over this city sparring and rumb-
ling while the lightning flashed
and cracked in manner that was
frightful to see ana hear.
AS the evening drew nigh, the
fiends of hell seemed to mount the
areal monsters and then the sight
grew awful. They struck each
other and produced thunder and
lightning that caused the earthly
spectators to shrink in terror.
About nine o'clock the clouds met
above Coal Gate and produced de-
luge which buried that village In
water and mud and came down the
creek toward us at railroad speed
carrying on its BOSOM houses, fur
'niture, clothing and trees. 1t was
eight feet high when it struck this
city and at once began it's work of
destruction by seizing up a two
roomed house belonging to J. Wat
kins, and carrying it with terrific
speed down the stream. The float
ing house struck the home of VIM.
Donnohoe and threw it from it's
foundation, then passed and struck
j. Bambridge's saloon ana turning
knocked Tedrow's store from it's
foundation and started for the iron
bridge where it stopped long
enough TO back the water into the
homes B. Channey, J, Spencer, S.
Seideufeld and his store also, B.
Baird, Mrs. G. Sewers, @. Huston
and Stratton's store.
THOSE WHO WERE CAUGHT:
Dave Brown and family were in
their home which was picked up
and whirled around. VIM. Donno-
hoe and family nearly drowned be-
fore they could be rescued. J.Bam-
bridge sat or stood on his cooler to
hold it dawn while G. w. Watkins
caught on the transom of the door
just as he was being carried away.
Mrs. cambridge was taken out of
her home just in time to save her
life. Jim Donnohoe and family
were caught and not rescued until
the water was over the mantle
piece. The homes of Mrs. Wealth
erburn, O. Dunlap, II. Darby, j.
Stewart, Mr.. Kancer, Geo. Van
sickle, s. and j. SINNERS, j. Brad
bury and others were half full and
the occupants were carried out.
The editor left his home when the
flood was ready to enter the door.
j. B. Croft, an aged man who slept
in small shanty next door to the
News office, and was on the creek
bank, was reused by the water en-
tering his bed, and before he could
reach his clothing the flood was
around his neck. With final eff
fort he broke the light out of the
upper sash Of his front window and
