ABOUT raAr NOTE.

Suppose Congressman Tayler should
conclude, after the election is over, to
call upon the Salem Herald, Alliance
Leader, Canton News Democrat and
Youngstown Vindicator to make good
their assertions that he stole money
from the First National bank, or beat
the creditors Of the institution out Of a
sum Of money.-Buckeye State, Lisbon.
We have seen this fool statement In
print before, but have not considered
II worth while to make mention about
It owing to it's then limited circulation.
Other papers have copied 1t and II is now
referred to. Will the Buckeye State tell
when this matter appeared in the News
Democrat In the manner set forth? The
NewH-Democrat knows Of Its own know
ledge, nothing about Mr.. Tayler's deal
ings with the Lisbon bank. We have
heard that a suit was brought on note
that had Congressman Tayler's name
on 1t, but also heard that a jury passed
on the case, and we recall printing the
TACT a. q matter Of news that suit Of
some sort was brought and that a
verdict was rendered In favor Of Tayler.
II has been the policy Of the present
management Of the News-D Democrat to
permit the courts to try the lawsuits
thst are brought. and to accept the
verdict % long - II stands. 10 ar AZ

One OF the campaign orators adorns
his speech with this story concerning
what his party is going to do to the
opposition party next Tuesday: A
young man, who had been badgered
and almost worried to death by his
mother-in-law and other relatives,
finally left home on a business trip,
during the course Of which he received
the following telegram: "Your mother
in-law just died. Shall we embalm.
eremate. or simply inter?".
The young man at once answered.:
"Embalm, cremate and inter. Don't
take any chances"
Here is what Bishop Fowler, one OF
the high churchmen of the M. e. church
said at a recent banquet after he had
filled his dinner-pail to its capacity:
"Shall we have Bryan elected? No;
a thousand times no. I'd rather go to
sea with a boat of stone, with sails of
lead, with oars of iron. with the wrath
Of God as a gale and hell for port"
At the general conference of the
Methodist church, in Chicago, one Of the
things most discussed and most de-
plored, was that the Methodist church
had lost in membership and in influence
in the past few years, and while the
country and most other churches had
gone forward the Methodist church had
gone backward. When one reads such
stuff as that quoted, from one Of tho
bishops, the cause Of the waning in
fiuence Of the church is not hard to dis
cover.

/, Ellen Berg, who keeps q boarding
house in West Fourth street, called ON
the mayor Saturday and filed an affk
davit against Elmer McGregor charge
ing him with board bill jumping. It
appears that McGregor has boarded
with the woman about two weeks and
owed a bill of S. She asked him for
the money. and he replied that It would
be paid Saturday night or Sunday
morning. The money was not FORTH
coming and the woman caused Nc
Gregors arrest. ~
When McGregor first went to the
Berg place he represented that he was
employed by the electric railway COM
pany in repair work on the streets. He
stopped work with the company and
began working at q livery stable, but,
continued carrying his dinner pail with
him and telling his boarding mistress
that he was still employed by the rail-
way company.
Officer Mortensen arrested McGregof
and locked him in a cell at the city
prison. He will probably be success
full in liquidating the bill, as efforts to
that end are being made by him.

Duhamel, Jan "a, 1900.
Dear Sir and Friend:
We had a lucky trip. made good con-
nections and got to Wetaskiwin Mon
day afternoon, stayed there all night,
bought POM and saddle for the boy
and hired a three-seated rig for the
balance of US and got home to dinner
next day; caught the boys cleaning up
and getting ready to come after us.
Wednesday the snow was all gone and
wehad bare ground and bright sunshine
for a month, and it has been pleasant
weather ever since. The ground is
frozen about two feet and about six
inches of snow-just enough for sleigh
ing. We had one cold spell in Decem-
Der. The thermometer went down to
80 below zero; but we did not suffer
with the cold at all. We have worked
every day all winter are all we'll and
feeling well. Have built a log house
1sx1s, two log stables 16x1s, and are
now busy on a well. We have ten cows,
three other cattle and six head of
horses. The boys send their best re-
spects to Mr.. Huchison, and say they
will talk to him enough to pay for not
writing when he gets up here. VIII
write you again next Spring and tell
you all about the Winter. We all unite
in sending you and family our best
wishes and respects and hope this will
find you all well.
Yours very respectfully,

CONCUIlS IN THE DECISION.
But Scores the Legislature and Points
to the SuDreme Court.


Frankfort, KY, April Judges Bur-
nam and Guffy, republicans, while con-
curing in the courts having no juris-
diction, dissented from the reasoning.
Judge Burnam's separate opinion
says:
1T is hard to imagine a more
fragrant and partisan disregard of the
modes of procedure than is made
manifest by the facts alleged and re-
lied on by contestees and admitted by
demurrer, and 1 am firmly convinced,
from admitted facts. that the legisla-
ture, in the heat of anger engendered
by intense partisan excitement, has
done two faithful, conscientious and
able public servants an irreparable in
jury in depriving them of the office
to which they were elected, and a still
greater wrong TO the large majority
of the electors who voted under diff
cult circumstances to elect these serv-
ants.
"But we are met DIT the threshold
with the contention that the courts
of the state, under the constitution,
have no power to GO behind the legis-
lative Journal and review the ind

from whose determination of the

been led, with some reluctance, to the
conclusion, and not without some mis-
givings as to its correctness, that there
is no power in the courts of the state
to review the findings of the general
assembly in a contested election for
the offices of governor and lieutenant
governor, as shown by its only authen-
tlcated records. Many questions have
been raised and discussed by counsel
for the appellants, but it will be IN
necessary to consider them in view of
the conclusion we have reached on this
fundamental question"

tory of the Crime.

Louisville, Ky, April 1.-THE Courier
Journal prints a circumstantial story
which purports to give the details Of

plot to kill Senator Goebel. The story
is based upon evidence said to have
been given TO the attorneys for the
prosecution by Wharton Golden, w. III.
Culton, HI. E. Youtsey and others. The
story gives the name of the man sus-
pectcd of having fired the shot that
killed Senator Goehcl. He is Il Clay
county feudist. He is supposed to be
in the mountains, and has not yet been
arrested. The story follows the evil
dence given by Golden in the prelin-
mary trial of. Caleb Powers as to the
bringing to Frankfort of the armed
mountain feudists. The men impli-
Gated by Golden's testimony. several OF
whom are now under arrest, while
others are either in the mountains or
in neighboriug states. The story fol-
lows Golden's testimony as tC the plan

now appears that no fewer than thir-
ty Beers escaped from the old camp
last evening. Nine have since been
recaptured. The prisoners effected
their escape by cutting a fence under
the sentry bridge, while the sentry
was above. A driver of sanitary
cart was offered 5000 to carry off the
prisoners. A new tunnel has been dis
covered in the direction opposite to
the former one. 1t had been completed
