More rumors of railway ordinances
are floating around today. The city
should issue a notice to prospective
franchise seekers to wait until this lit
tie matter with Messrs. Haynes and
C1ausen is settled. The people are
tired of hearing of franchises, what
they want is some one who is willing
and able to build the road and give the
city some compensation for the use of
the streets.

pectancy. Our effort that we may be
round faithful: our prayer that He
would speed His coming. Then shall
he Sit upon the throne OF His glory
ana summon all His enemies before
Him-Satan. the usurper, and all who
nave AFFILIATED with him; all who have
ADOPTED his measure and by lying and
deceit. persecution and oppression have
MADE the world one of bitterness and
tears: oil who love not God and obey
not the gospel of his Som shall be cast
INTO outer darkness and into the lake
mat burneth with fire and birthstone.
bue the seed of the woman-the follow
ers or the Lamb-shall be openly ac-
Quilted, welcomed into the kingdom
ana given place with the victor on
HIS throne. Satan shall be some day
completely oyerthrown, but Is there no
deliverance In this present world :?
There is. Satan falls from heaven
when he falls from the throne of mems
hearts. and when, by grace Of God, we
cast him down from our hearts and
enthronc Christ there, then for US
Satan is buried. When we have en-
throned Christ as king of our hearts,
then every step upwards, every tempta-
ton and wrong trampled under foot.
God is through us bruising Satan. The
soul that trusts In Jesus must conauer.
for He not only fights for God, but God
fights for him."

The Admiral Rseousidsra His Former De-
clsIoa aud Says He WIN Serve ~
President " Chossn.

New York, April "A special to the
World from Washington says: Ad-
miral Dewey authorizes the World to
announce to the American people that
after mature reflection and in response
to the earnest entreaties from all par
ties of the country his former deci-
sion not under any circumstances to
run for the presidency is rescinded.
The admiral said:
When | arrived in this country last Sep
TENDER | said then that nothing would
induce me to be candidate for the pres
idency Since then, however, | have had
the leisure and inclination to study the
matter and have reached different con-
clusion. lnasmuch as so many assurances
have come to me from my countrymen
that ! would be acceptable as a candi-
date for this great Office II the Amerl-
can people want me for this high office
shall be only too willing to serve them.
1t Is the highest honor In the gift of
this nation; what citizen would refuse It?
Since studying this subject~I am con-
WINGED that the office Of the president Is
not such very difficult one to fill his
duties being mainly to execute the laws
of congress Should be chosen for this
exalted position would execute the laws
of congress as faithfully as have al
ways executed the orders of my superiors.

ELECTIONS IN MISSOURI.
The Results Whore Party Limos Were
Drawn We're Favorable to che
Democrats.

ST. Louis, April 4.-Municipal cleo
tions were held yesterday in many
towns in Missouri, The results where
party lines were drawn were, on the
whole, favorable to the democrats
There were some surprises on both
sides, but the democratic vote showed
the greater gains. The republicans
made their gains chiefly at Sedalia
and st. Joseph. In the latter place To-
cal issues led to the defeat Of the dem
ocrats. At Sedalia the slight plurality
Of the democrats at the last election
was overcome and the city again went
republican. The democrats elected a
straight ticket at Springfield for the
hrst time. At Maryville they turned
republican majority into a demo-
cratic majority Of 300. Fulton, Jop.
lin and other places were swept by
the democrats.
Party lines were not strictly drawn
In many places Citizens tickets and
non-partisan movements were numer-
Gus and almost invariably successful.
In some eases the voters ignored po-
litcal distinctions and chose officers
from both tickets. School directors
were chosen on bipartisan plan. No
election was held in st. Louis.

MOUNTS STATEMENT.


indianapolis, Ind, April Ain re-
gard to the Kentucky situation, and
especially respecting his attitude
toward acquisitions, Gov. Mount last
night issued the following formal
statement:
"In the Geographic correspondence
with Mr.. Beekham to-day l expressed
my sentiments as clearly and force
fully as my command Of the English
language would permit. By reference
to that correspondence 1t win be OBJ
served that Mr.. Beckham proposes to
honor requisition from the governor
of Indiana, provided | will in turn
grant any requisition from Mr.. Beck
ham. would not consent to such an
arrangement, even though Mr.. Beck
hams title to the office had never
been questioned. Such compact
would be willfully unfair, mischievous
and unlawful. II would be nothing
short Of a personal agreement be-
tween two officials to perform certain
acts regardless of the merits of the
case, or the consequences.
"The time will never come, certainly
not under the present administration
when Indiana will be an asylum fol
criminals, but it would be uncbristiar
and inhuman to permit maddened
partsans of another commonwealth
to drag away citizens, even though
only temporarily abiding here, to q
place of persecution where, self-con
fessedly, law is travesty and justice
| Is a mockery,"
