Gen. Palmer Dead.

Springfield, ILL.,, Sept. 25.-Gen
John M. Palmer, former United
States Senator from Illinois, died
at his residence in.this city at s p
IN.
His death was caused by heart
failure. He was an honorary pail
bearer at Gen. McClernand's fu-
neral last Saturday. Last nigh
Gen. Palmer was on the street
viewing the State Fair illumina-
tions until a late hour, apparently
well. He was about eighty-three
years old.
Gen. Palmer complained early
yesterday of a pain in his chest.
He slept uneasily last night and
about 3 o'clock this morning Mrs.
Palmer called a physician, who did
not think the Generals condition
alarming. The General awoke at
7 o'clock this morning, still COM
planning, He talked to his wife a
short time, then fell into doze
and expired soon after.

In his speech at Madisonvile,
congressman Allen called atten-
ton to a fact that cCmmends itself
to the man who thinks Mr.. Yerkes
is fairer than anybody else in pol
litics. Mr.. Allen said that while
Mr.. Yerkes is going over the state
telling the people that he wants
every vote counted as cast, yet that
same Yerkes went before the con-
test committee in congress and
asked that committee to throw out
the election of Mr.. G. G. Gilbert
and give the seat to which he had
been elected to Geo. Davidson, the
contesting candidate. 1t could be
said of the committee that it had
not thrown out Gilbert only, how
ever, because the Republicans in
congress did not happen to need
Mr.. Gilbert's scat. Mr.. Yerkes and
his party were travelling the state
over, sending up a cry for civil
liberty.

Lexington, KY, Sept. 24,-Ex-
Gov. Bradley returned to Lexing-
ton last night from New York,
where he has been for she past
two months on legal business, the
nature of which is being kept from
the public, for the Kentucky uni
versity. He will meet the execu-
tive board of the institution Thurs
day morning and the probabilities
are that he will leave at once for
st. Louis and Chicago. At any
rate he will not participate in the
campaign in this state this fall. 1t
is rumored that it is the intention
of the officers of the institution to
the famous old Tran
sylvania Law school and that Mr.
Bradley is to be the head of it,
and that his business in the east
has been for the purpose of secur-
ing endowments.

shot that killed Gov. ;Goebel was
fired from the Secretary of States
Office. This is a concession not
heretofore made and should arouse
the serious consideration of those
who insist upon the innocence of
Powers and denounce the court,
the jury, the lawyers, the reward
commission, and everybody else
who insisted upon an investigation
of the affair. If your brother,
your personal or political friend
were assassinated and the man
from whose house the bullet was
fired was pardoned.by a governor
whose title was good, much less
one whose title had been declared
null and void by the constitutional
authority of the land, before an
investigation could be made, what
would be your conclusions, and
what would be your opinion of
that governorY We all have our
political prejudices and have faith
in our friends, political and other
wise, but let us be honest with
ourselves and search our hearts for
an answer to this question.

The Legislature is still hard at
work, trying to formulate an cleo
ton law that will be eminently
satisfactory to the leaders of a
combination that spent thousands
of dollars to corrupt voters last
year, and will spend thousands
more this year for the same devil
ish purpose. 1t is pleasant to go
out of the way to do the thing the
other fellow thinks proper, if the
"other fellow" will take the same
trouble to please us, but when he
demands his ideal of fairness in
one direction and proceeds to cor
rupt in another, his demands fall

Considerable Importance is attached
to the distance measuring field glass
invented by Mr.. Zeiss of Jena. 1t is
simply an extension of the natural
power of the eyes to estimate the dis
lance of nearby objects. This power
depends upon the fact that the space
between the eyes serves like a base
line in surveying, the lines of sight
converging upon selected object from
the ends of the base. In the telemeter
the effective distance between the eyes
is increased by means of prisms, and
double images of the objects looked at
are formed. The distance between the
images varies with the 1emoteness of
the objects, and a scale shows what
the real distance is. Up to about two
miles the results are said to be fairly
accurate.
