THE editor of the Capital stirred
up the wrong boy when he twitted
Will White, of the Emporia Ga

Mr.. White replied in substance as
follows: 81 may be guilty of being
a young man, hence was not old
enough to run on the greenback
ticket for congress in the JOS, to
have claimed for free silver in 1890,
to call Mckinley tool of Wall
street in 'oS and to abuse in 80 the
men who lent me money to keep me
out of bankruptcy in '92. The in
experience of youth sometimes is
almost less criminal than are the
indiscretions of age"

SPEAKING of the delegates to the
Republican National Convention
from this district, a great many Re-
publicans think Hon. R. N. Allen,
of Chanute, should be named by
the Third Congressional District
for that place. Mr.. Allen has been a
member of the congressional COM
-mittee for eight years, and was the
chairman during the last campaign,
conducting a magnificent canvass
under peculiarly unfavorably cir
cumstances. That Mr.. Allen de-
serves the honor no one will deny.
The Republicans of this district
should very soon begin giving this
matter serious thought. The cam
paign is already upon us.-The

THE Columbus Advocate devot

THE Columbus Advocate devoted
over a column last week to favor
able mention of Geo. w. Wheatley
for congressman in this district and
promises more in the future. We
are of the opinion that the Advo-
cate is about right in this matter.
Wheatley seems to be the right man
in the right place at present writing.
1t would be pretty hard to make his
old friends and neighbors in this To-
cality, who knew how he trimuphed
over all obstacles in his younger
DAYS, believe that Geo. w. Wheat
ley is not proper man to send to
congress.

Major McMurray's Opin,on.

We attended the closing exercises OF
the Reynoldsville school last Wednes-
day evening, May 2nd, not ON anybody's
invitation, but on the exercise of our
privilege as an American citizen. We
desired to see how the Reynoldsvile
young people who are going out from
her high school would acquit them
selves, aud incidentally TO hear Ernest
Gamble sing and Ex-Governor Hastings
talk. We are glad we went. The
evenings exercises repaid us well for
our trip and the small expense connect
ed with It,
From our standpoint the exercises by
the graduates were excellent. In mat
ter and style OF composition they com
pared favorably with such commence
ments generally, and some of them were
quite above the average. Evidently
the performers had been well trained,
for the recitations In merit Of delivery
were exceptionally good.
The exercises were all plain, intended
to show the qualities Of the graduates
In composition and public speaking, and
there was no dress parade" or elabor-
ate stage effect. A real merit OF the
exercise was its comparative brevity,
the whole performance, including Gov
ernor Hastings address did not exceed
two hours and Il half In length.
Beyond all question: Professor Len
kerd has done most excellent and sue
cessful work in the Reynoldsville public
schools during the four years Of his
principalship Of them. He ranks among
the best educators In the county.-

James Hodge Committed Suicide.

James Hodge, of Rathmel, committed
suicide yesterday afternoon by cutting
his throat from ear to ear with a pen
knife. He had been unable to work for
almost year on account of stomach
trouble which worried him and finally
effected his mind. His family was afraid
he would harm himself and watched
him closely. His razor and knife were
put out of his way. Yesterday afternoon
he went to home of his nephew, next
door to his own, and found sharp knife
which the nephew had been using and
forgotten to take with him. Mr. Hodge
slipped the knife into his pocket and
went out to closet about 800 p. m. and
about four o'clock he was found dead.
He deliberately used the knife, laid it
down on seat beside him and held his
head oyer closet hole to let the blood
run into closet. Mr.. Hodge leaves u
