Maybe Ihey Won,t be Let ln.


 MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 20.-Leaders of the "Lincoln Republican" party, better known as silver Republicans, who have been in conference in Minneapolis for the last two days, have decided that union with the democratic party is their wisest course. George H. Shib- ley, national committeeman from Illi- nois, Charles A. Towne, chairman, and E. S. Corser, treasurer and diplom- atic agent of the party, have so agreed, and letter to that effect, addressed to the silver Republicans of the country, is now under consideration.
 This address will take the ground that henceforth "the great issue in American politics is the struggle be- tween democracy and plutocracy, im- perialism and anti-imperialism,'' and that the Democratic party, under William Jennings Bryan, is the most available rallying place for all oppo- nents of plutocracy."
 One of the leaders said the silver Re publicans want no reorganization of the democratic party, except in the "direction of strengthening the hold on the party organization of such men as Mr. Bryan and his followers.

Some three weeks ago Joseph Mul- hatton was brought from Kelvin and placed in the county hospital, laboring under an hallucination that he had killed somebody. He had his examina- tion last Saturday, was adjudged insane and committed to the asylum, where he was conducted by Sheriff Tru- man on Wednesday. Mulhatton has national reputation as prevaricator i, having originated some of the most successful newspaper fakes of the century. He was a ready writer, with vivid imagination, always considered little "off," especially when drink ing, which was the case recently. He was of jovisl disposition and per- fectly harmless at all times. His stories never harmed any body and had nothing of vindictivecharaeter about them. Mir. Mulhatton had recently sold some mining property near Kelvin to a Boston company and could not stand prosperity. That is all there is to it. He has many friends who will be pained to learn of his misfortune. Poor old Joe-the grasshoppers and butterflies have at last taken possession of him.

The Prescott papers announce that Sheriff Munds has revoked the appoint ment of Pete Boscha as deputy sheriff at Congress. Thereby hangs B tale. 1t seems that Mlnds sent Pete $I00 to aid in the formers reelection, which it is said Pete used to help defeat him. This was found o9t by means of a long-distance telephone message sent by George Ruffner (Munds' opponent) to the immaculate Pete. It seems that when you talk over the line to anyone in Congress, every one in town can listen to the conversation, there being no individual lines as in Florence. And so the truth came out. The greatest mistake Pete Boscha ever made was in leaving Pinal county, where such political methods are recognized as the correct thing in cer- tain circles.

A Village Blacksmith Saved His Little
 Sons Life.

Mir. H. H. Black, the well-known village blacksmith st Grahamsville, Sullivan Co.,, N. Y., says: "0ur little son, five years old, has always been subject to croup, and so cad have the attacks been that we have feared many times that he would die. We have had the doctor and used many medicines, but Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is now our sole reliance. It seems to dissolve the tough mucous and by giving frequent doses when the croupy symptoms appear we have found that the dreaded croup is cured before it gets settled" There is no danger in giving this remedy for it contains no opium or other injurious drug and may be given as confidently to babe as to an adult.

Important Point in Law.

Jzdgs sinonton Delivers an Opinion on an
Important Point in Law.
Judge Simonton. of Danphin county,
last week handed down an opinion in
vOlving an important point in CONNER
cial law. Ii concerns the duration of "a
reasonable time before making q de
msnd for payment The opinion was in
the case of the Harrisburg National Bank
vs.. Robert II. Moffitt, executor of Caro-
line NJ. Reilly, deceased This case was
tried without a jury, and involved the
payment Of a note drawn on May Is, ls93.
signed by John W. Reilly, for s., 600, the
payee being C. NJ. Reilly. It was dis
counted by the Harrisburg National Bank
and was held by the bank until March
7th. 1895. thirty-three months after it was
discounted, before formal demand of pay
msnt was made on the maker. Thep plain
til contended that the note did not be-
come due until demand for payment was
made on March 7th, lSs6. when due notice
was given 10 the endo-ser Of demand and
failure TO pay by the maker; while for
the defense it was claimed that the holder
was bound TO make demand within Tea
sonable time. and that as more than thir-
ty three months had elapsed sftsr the
note was discounted before demand was
made and notice given, demand was not
made within reasonable time and there
fore the endOrser was discharged. In the
opinion Judge SimOnton says: I'VE do
no, know Of any case in this State which
decides the identical question thus raised.
But cases have been cited which support
the contention of the defendant The
necessary inference of these decisions is
that the endorser in the case before US. if
demand was not made within a reasOna-
bic time, can not he held liable. The
courts have not laid down any hard and
fast rule on the question as to what is rea-
souable time within which demand for
payment must be made on a note payable
on demand There is no case. however.
that decides that a delay Of thirty-three
months is reasonable, and il certainly Is
