Valuable Recruit.-A well atlthen-
tlcated report comes from Cleveland that
the Hon. Robert E. McKisson has quit the
Republican party and has come squarely
over to the support OF Bryan and Steven
SON For years Mr. McKisson has led the
fight on Hanna in Cuyahoga County, and
has been elected mayor Of Cleveland twice
over Hanna's protest. The fact that be-
ing a Republican and opposed to Hanna
he has been able TO live and thrive In
Cleveland is OF itself sufficient to give
McKisson international fame But the
fact that he has been elected mayor with
Hanna against him shows that McKisson
is a power that cannot be measured by
the ordinary standards. II is confidently
believed that his support of Bryan viii

cratic standard bearer in northern Chic
this year The Democracy in that region,
by the way, is thoroughly united at pres
ent. and the Hon. Tom johnson, sffluent,
rescurceful, and skillful. is back in the
party harness ready to pull with all his
might The Republicans Of that part OF
the State are decidedly Handicapped by
having Hanna placed again at the head
IF their national organization, and 10 is
for this reason that the amiable Mr.. Nc
lsinley has discovered that the weather
surrounding his cottage at Canton, which
is not great many miles from Cleveland,
is more conducive TO his health than is
that Of Lake Champlain or any OF the other
Northern resorts where he has heretofore
spent the summer. Mr.. Mckinley is
right smart politician himself, as they say
down in Kentucky, though whether he will
be able TO take Mr. Hanna's place in other
parts OF Ohio remains to be seeen. Mayor
McKisson has a large personal following
which il is thought will in the main do
as he directs in this campaign and his
detection, together with the return TO the
party OF the Tom" Johnson people in
the Cleveland district. ought TO elect the
Democratic candidate for Congress and
thus retire the Hon. Theodore Burton who
did more than anybody else to block Near
aqua Canal legislation in the House last
winter. As that district has been carried
by the Democrats more than once it can
not be understood why it should not be
reclaimed in the present propitioGs cir
cumstances.

Here's "A Strnw.-Mr Reginald Schroe-
der. an experienced political writer and nb-
server, has just returned from a short visit
20 Berkeley Springs, W. Va. He brings the
significant news that at a recent primary
election in that voting precinct the Demo-
Gratis cast seventy three ballots. Four
years ago at the Presidential election Mr.
Bryan received at the Berkeley Spring poll
only twenty-seyen votes. The voting p
ulaticn of the place has undergone no ma
terisl change in four years. The penc-
Gratis did not understand the issues of the
last ~campaign, and nearly fifty OF theIa
wandered off from the fold. There are TO
boilers among them at present, however.
and every Democrat in the precinE: is go
ing to vote for Bryan. If this Proportion
holds good through the State Their, can be
no doubt about West Virginia swing g
back into the Democratic column his year.

FOR SALE.
A 321-Acre Highly Improved Farm,
Adjacent to Town Conyeniences.

A 321-Acre Highly Improved Farm,
Adjacent to Town Conveniences.
FOR cash, or upon satisfactory terms to
Il the right party, I offer at private sale
that tract of land on the southwestern
outskirts of Yorkville, known as the DR..
]. F. LINDSAY PLANTATION.
This plantation includes 32l ACRES,
lying on both sides of the Pinckney road,
which runs nearly through the centre.
The 8. G. & G. Extension railroad passes
through one corner, and the G. 81 NV.
r. r. runs within about 200 yards of the
eastern boundry. The northeastern line
is within II miles of the courthouse, and
Chester or Pickney roads.
There are under cultivation and in
pasture about 200 acres, and the balance is
in woodland, most of which is original
forest, including many THOUSAND
CORDS OF FIREWOOD. and more or
less valuable timber. That portion OF
land which is under cultivation is highly
improved, including a thorough system
of terraces cast along scientific lines and
of from seven to ten years standing. All
the land lies we'll.
The buildings include a ONE STORY
FRAME BUILDING, 5 rooms, in fair re-
pair, suitable for overseer, on the Pinck-
ney road, just two miles from the court
house, good barn and four outbuildings,
with we'll Of good water. There are on
the place FOUR TENEMENT HOUSES,
each near a spring, and on the place
six springs, all of which are convenient
to one or the other Of the different cul-
tivated fields.
Several of the fields have, with favor
able seasons. yielded an average Of
BALE OF COTTON TO THE ACRE,
and one four-acre tract has record OF
SEVEN BALES. This plantation was
improved by the late DR.. ]. F. LINDSAY,
the local public is aware that, especially
during the last ten years Of his life, he
made on it heavier crops at less expense
than were made by any other farmer on
any other plantation in this section Of the
county. All of the land is as good or
better now than it has ever been.
I ask for this plantation $25 AN ACRE.
I am farming the place this year and
would want to give possession January
Ist, 1901 but in the meantime the pur-
chaser would be at liberty to build, cut
timber or do anything else that would
not interfere with the cultivation or gath
ering of the crop. =,
The situation of the property makes it
valuable as place to run a PUBLIC
GIN, and one has been successfully run
there for years. The gin house is well
built, covered with metal and in good
repair. The ginning outfit consists Of
IL horse power engine, 6O-saw Van Win,
kle gin, condenser, feeder and a press-all
in good running order. If sale is made
in time to enable me to arrange to put my
stock, etc., on another place for next year,

charge to the purchaser.

as mercury will surely destroy the sense

is ten fold to the good you can possibly
derive from them. Halls Catarrh Cure,

The "old" monument is suffering from

CRAMPS GIANT CRANES.

To the many strangers who visit the
William Cramp & Sons shipyard, On
the banks of the Delaware river. in
kensington, the new electric travelling
cantilever cranes which hang in Md
air like sprawling spiders attract the
greatest attention. From an interest
ing description of these new cranes IN
the Philadelphia Times it is learned
that the extreme end of the cantilever
arm, which extends beyond the width
of two ships, a lift of 5000 pounds
can be made at the rate of $50 feet per
minute and light loads at the rate If
200 feet per minute. This weight,
when poised in mid-air. may readily be
deposited on the far side of ship hav-
ing breadth Of ninety-five feet The
extreme width of the cantilever arm is
203 feet
At a point between the needle pivots
on which the arm revolves and at tie
extreme edge of the crane, 25.001
pounds can be lifted at the rate of rs
feet per minute. This load can be de-
posted anywhere inside the ship. The
speed of the trolley travelling across
the cantilever arm is from 400 feet to
500 feet per minute, according to the
load.
The cantilever will travel along the
trestle work or runway at rate of
speed averaging from 400 feet to 200
feet per minute, according to load and
wind pressure. This entire system is
operated by an electric trolley.
When completed the cost OF the sys-
tenn viii be close to s750.000. a load
OF $4,000 pounds is lifted and carried
along as child would carry a toy.
