TICKET Will VIM.
Governor Tyler is Confident of
organs Success.

Governor Tyler is firmly of the
opinion that Bryan will be elected
President of the United States or
the 9th OF November next.
Il am confident the democratic
ticket will win,' said the governor
as be sat talking to u Dispatch writer
IN the library at the mansion last
night. During the two weeks

OF the most prominent men in the

From all that L learned / became
convinced that Bryan will win, aud
by great deal larger majority than
the most sanguine of his friends ex-
pect.
I'VE IN the East do not appreciate
the strength of tho anti-Imperial
sentiment in the West,r continued
the governor. cit seems to me it
must be almost unanimous An ex-
member of Congress from Missouri
with whom L talked, said that all
through the West there was a very
general sentiment that it was better
to have tin money than a govern
ment, republican III form, but adj
ministered without regard to the
constitution, or to have dual gov
eminent, constitutional govern
ment for America and military or
colonial government for dependen-
cies.
"The German vo @, a large factor
in elections In the West, is in omen
rebellion against the Republican
platform" the governor went on.
"The Demociatic declaration of
sympathy with the Beers greatly
pleases this element, but the Ger
man Americans view with greatest
alarm the tendency of tie Republi-
can administration to put an armed
soldier upon the back of every citi

the Fatherland what this means. A
gentleman with a wide acquaintance
In Missouri told me that lie did not

The June Bulletin of the Virginia

care for short time. to form the
habit of splitting in the street instead
of on the sidewalk. The writer of
this article was SHIELD up in Roanoke
some time ago and reminded that it
was unlawful to spit OH the side
walk, and he hasn't 'spat' on the
sidewalk in any town since. The
habit is as easily formed as not to
spit on the floor of parlor or sit
ting room.
The report goes on to say that
Salem, Va. is the cleanest town in
the State, not only it main streets
but alleys and back streets also.
Roanoke and Salem both make spit
ting on the streets punishable by
fine. They have no trouble now.
Everybody has gotten accustomed
to splitting in the street. For the
sake of personal cleanliness, if not
for the health of the town, and out
OF respect to the ladies we should
stop splitting On the streets and on
the floors and steps of public build

Jno. De Witt Warner For BRYAN

Elk Congressman Jnc. De Witt
Warner, who was Que of the organ
izers of the Gold Democrats in 1896
will vote for Bryan and Stevenson.
In giving his reasons for supporting
the Kansas City ticket Mr.. Warner
said yesterday;
"Mr. McKinley's virtue as a sound
money man is lately acquired, and is
no guarantee against his relapsing
to the financial heresies he used tc
have. The differ ence between him
and Mr.. Bryan is that Mr.. Bryan's
convictions are so rOng that it is
hard for him to let go OF them, and
MIR. McKinley's so weak that it is
hard for him TO keep them. The
choice between Mckinley and Bryan
is therefore, between a man and q
marionette, or really between Bryan
and Hama, the manager of the mari
onette show
81 consider the question of i'm
perialism the paramount issue in
this campaign. 1t is as much more
pressing an issues than was slavery
forty years ago, as our country is
now of greater moment than was
then that part of it known as the
Confederate States. Had the Union
then been dissolved, no one can now
doubt that the great free North and
West would have prospered very
much as they actually have done,
and that the slave-holding South.
unles it had voluntarily freed its
slaves, would by this time have be-
come hopelessly doomed to the fate
of holding artistocracy COM
peting with free nations.
Our whole country is now at the
parting OF the ways. Ii we indulge
in subject colonies, make satrapies
and prO-consulships the great prizes
OF political success, keep increasing

for any part OF earth where we wish
to interfere, exploit less advanced
notions for our commercial gain and

SHE is A COWGIRL.
A REMARKABLE YOUNG WOMAN
OF OKLAHOMA.
Ono of the Chief Attractions at the
Recent Reunion of Rough Riders
L. Married and Has Two Pretty
daughters.
ESPECIAL Letter.

Miss Lucille Mulhall is the most re-
markable cowgirl in the west. Re-
Gently she was, next to Teddy Roose-
welt, the greatest attraction at the
Rough Riders reunion at Oklahoma
City, Okla. There she gave an exhibi-
ton of her prowess and received the
plaudits OF thousands. Although she
weighs only 80 pounds she can break
broncho, lasso and brand a steer and
shoot coyote at 500 yards. She can
also play Chopin, quote Browning, con-
strue Virgil, and make mayonnaise
dressing.
Mrs. Mulhall has two famous daugh-
ters, and although she is intensely
proud of them she shrinks from the at
tention they attract Miss Agnes Null
halls adventures suggested to Hoyt
the plot OF "A Texas Steer" and her
own figure may be recognized as the
heroine OF the play. Her little sister
won renown by killing a Lobo wolf
and last fall took premiums for las
ysoing wild steers against competitors
from every part OF the COW country
from Canada to Mexico.
I At the Rough Riders reunion Miss
Lucille matched her skill and courage
against the world OF cowpunchers. and
because OF her mammals refined views
on the up-bringing of girls this was
probably her last appearance in pub
lie. Let 1t be said that she covered
herself with glory.
She has already spent one term at a
convent in st. Louis studying the gem
tie art with which women are equipped
for welding power In the great world.
BY this step her mother, while reJoic-
ing in the bodily vigor which Lucille
had derived from her open-air life,
hoped to wean her from the bolster
Gus pursuits of the ranch.
Lucille, having as great thirst for
knowledge as she had for adventure,
applied herself to her studies with
great industry and returned home a
highly polished young lady. But
she was homesick for the plains, and
glad to mount a fiery cow pony, with a
lariat coiled at her pommel. And the
cowboys welcomed Miss Lucille as II
she had been one of themselves Mrs.
Mulhall smiled as she sighed
All the territory was talking about
the approaching Rough Riders re-
union. Delegations came to invite
Miss Lucille to give an exhibition of
her frontier accomplishments and en-
ter the competitions. Mrs. Mulhall was

of thing she was striving to quad
