law, Henry H. Edmunds, at Houston.

The health of Judge RELY had been

matOry rheumatism.
Judge RELY was born in Jefferson
county, now in West Virginia, in 1889,
and was educated at Washington aud
Lee. He went into the Confederate
army and served in the field until about

Mr.. HuRARp,s NOMINATION..

1t liz strange how excited our Repuh
lican friends become when we call Mr..
HUBBARD the .Kiug' candidate. 1t Is
no uee, however, to squirm. Truth
makes 1.-THE CALLED jade vince" The
people of this section know too well
how and why he was nominated, they
know The devices and desires OF the
hearts which beat for his nomination.
Mr.. HUBBARD we believe like good 10y
al party man HAD to accept, and make
the race. Mr.. HUBBARD HAD to OBEY
the bosses. Mr.. Hubbard WILL be re-
warded for this sacrifice. He should
be tor 10 man should be forced into so

without recompense. Mr.. HUBBARD y

do ubtless agreed not to interfere should
such an accident as his election occur.
Had Mr.. Y ost been nominated, AS be
should have been, aud would have
been, had the Republican masses oil
this district been consulted. and hac
he been elected. as he has twice before
been, he would have been badly II
their way. The Ringsters would
have been Obliged to take to the woods
their plans would have been ruined
and their pap supply cut off. Mr.
Yost might have gotten few disgrnn
tied Democrats to help out his cleo
ton, Mr.. HUBBARD has no chance to d'
this. MIR. YOst might have made tn
| campaign interesting by few speech
es. Mr.. Hubard's platitudes and senil
remarks will do nothing of the kind
hence had the bosses and ring
sters not dictated the nomination o
MIR. HUBBARD, there might have beel
a little show for Republican Con
gressman from the 10Th district, mol
there is none. A Republican canno
be elected from this district Withou
large Democratic aid, some Democrat
might have swallowed Mr.. Y ost, non
can or will swallow Mr.. Hubbard. Th
nomination pleases the Democrats e.

POWERS CONVICTED.

sk,aassS

The conviction of Caleb Powers as a
CO. conspirator in the killing of Gov.
GOebel, OF Kentucky, seems to be q
surprise to bis friends and those who
wanted Goebel killed, and all the STAY
ers go free. 1t was surprise to many
who wanted to see the guilty people
punished, because they thought there
would be miscarriage Of justice by a
hung jury. 1t is claimed there was
much lying done in order to obtain
the reward Of 500. 900 offered by the
State. But inasmuch as the accused
seems to have been largely convicted
on his own testimony, we do not see
where false swearing cuts much Of a
figure. We have no idea Powers will
get q new trial aud he had as we'll ar.
range his person for wearing stripes

mildly termed RANK. The Governor.
himself, shocked the moral senses out
there some time ago by marrying a
woman and trying to put her at the
head of society in the State. while she
was under indictment for forgery. He
appointed as the Superintendent OF
the Lunatic Asylum at Weston ply
stefan who was proven to be q libertine,
and retained him in the face Of the
proof. His appointees to Office In the
University scandalized the University
by preaching free love" to the male
and female students there. He hal
pardoned criminals in such numbers
as to make convictions farce, an(
recently he turned the capitol building
over to negroes for the purpose O
holding a cake walk and ball. Thi
has turned many Republican st0m

nauseating when such staunch Repub
licans as Lewis Ballard, OF Monroe

The Republicans are taking steps to
show their love for the farmer. MIR.
Hanna has at last discovered there is
such an element in the country. There
are to be various promises made to
them. A whole heap OF things will be
done if they will only be good and vote
the Republican ticket. How guilible
The farmer must lie who can be bam-
boozled by such promises. The plat
form failed to notice him, but it MOTTO
ed the Trusts, his sworn enemy. Now
a new platform is to be written and
for the first time since the Republican
party was formed will the farmer be
cajoled and tickled under the chin.
The idea is striking, it is new with
that party and they will go about 1t
awkwardly. They may catch q few
very ''easy" farmers, but the sensible
ones will never take the bait.
