The continued prosperity throughout
the entire country which has been a
feature of McKinIey's two terms as
President, and the attempt of the
Populist leaders to deliver their party
into the Democratic camp, is partly
responsible for Mr.. Gorsuch's change

"what are you going to do with this
money!" Why it's the easiest ques-
tion to answer, it is to go toward the
foundation of church. The preach
er says Ogallah needs church so we
must have one. The idea of building
body lost their senses? Build church
first, then if you have any spare
change, and want to invest it in hall,
go ahead. We need church, our
school house can no longer hold the
people as every one is aware. We
need place to hold our dead while
our religious service is being carried
on where friends and relatives can be
comfortably seated. Did you ever
think of this? This is a small begin
ming but large Oaks from small acorns
grew, and the nickel you drop in our
little basket means great deal.
A queer story of the thief who stole
Mrs. Yetter's buggy about a month
ago. The buggy was taken and no
trace of it. could ever be found and
the excitement over it had gradually
died away, when early Wednesday
morning Charlie Benson went to his
barn to do chores he ran across a
strange man and team of horses in
side and about ready to leave. The
mans buggy was outside. Charlie
recognized the robe as that of Mrs.
Yetter'S so he ask the man some very
cute questions which at first was not
inclined to answer only in the affirm
alive, but finally things were coming
to a climax, the man had to surrender
and Charlie marched him down to the
hotel and leave the buggy and take
his own But m the meantime Mr..
Tetter had foand an overcoat i'm his
barn 1.-THE Que the man took when he
took the buggy and carried it into
the house surprising it belonged to
some of the boarders, never thought
any more of it until the man told him
he put it there the night before witt,
a SO dollar bill in the pocket. Why
did he do this and keep the buggy as
he was going on with it. We judge
his conscience must have hit him for
hi n l,s,x
ed. He might not have been a down
right thief only a maynard son of a
good old father and mother it is hard
to tell.

IOWA CAMPAIGN CLOSES.
Probability of State Going Republican
 Lessens Interest.

Des Moines, Ia., November 2.-The polit- ical campaign in this State was practical ly closed this afternoon with a Republi- can rally in this city. addressed by Con gressman Cousins.
 The apparent overwhelming odds in favor of the Republicans has lessened the interest in the campaign, and 1t is con- ceded that light vote will be boiled, possibly even less than two years ago, when the total was AS, 900. The Republi- can State central committee, however, estimates that the vote will be in the neighborhood of 45O0OO. and that the Re- publicans will have about 75000 plurality on the State ticket. The Democrats do not concede this and say the plurality will not be much greater than 4O,00O
 There Is an unknown quantity this year. The prohibition Republicans are dissatisfied with the nomination of AL bert B. Cummings for Governor on ac- count of his well known anti-prohibition record and will vote the prohibition ticket or not at all. This dissatisfaction
 may swell the prohibition vote to 10000 or more. Mir. Cum mings is likely to gain some strength from the gold Democrats. The Republicans claim they will make a gain of twenty members of the General Assembly and will have an overwhelming majority in both houses. The Democrats are working hard in the legislative dis tricts, however, and there are likely to be some surprises. though probably not enough changes will be made to endanger the election of two Republican United States Senators.

Washington, November 2.-The Rev. Archbishop Riordan of San Francisco has come to Washington and with Archbishop Ireland has called upon the President.
 It Is understood that one of the pur- poses of his visit is to induce the gov ernment of the United States to renew It's efforts to secure the payment by the Mexican government to the Catholic church of California of more than a million dollars, due to the church on ac- count of what is known as the Pious Fund.
 Before the acquisition of upper Califor- mia by the United States, the Catholic churches of upper and lower California had on deposit with the Mexican govern ment money and property aggregating q very large total, upon which the Mexi- can government was obliged to pay the church certain annual interest. In the cases of the churches of upper California this interest amounted to almost $50,0 900 annually. The interests ceased being paid after the Mexican war, but after the lapse of twenty years a claim in behalf of the church of interest unpaid came

LETTERS FROM
 THE PEOPLE.
THE STREET RAILWAY
 FRANCHISES IN MORI


 Cary W. Butt of Mobile has writ ten to Gen. L. V. Clark of this city the following letter pertaining to street rail way franchises:
 "At your request will endeavor to give you a brief outline of the franchise mat ter here and will send you the papers containing reports of the meetings of the General Council held to consider the question. In 1887 several of the street car lines operating in the city of Mobile were brought under one management under the name of the Mobile Street Railroad Company and were granted franchise Tor fifty years. In 1892 the Mobile Light and Railway Company was granted franchise to run their cars on certain streets for fifty years. The Mobile and Spring Hill Railroad Company had a per- petual franchise obtained many years ago. and in each case the city of Mobile received no remuneration for the use of It's streets. A short time since MT. J. H. Wilson and associates asked for an ex- tension of the first two lines till the year 1882, as they wished to consolidate all the above named lines under one manage ment. They offered the city in return certain electric lights until that time the cost of which would aggregate Cat the present rate) $1085 per annum, which re-
 
 the sum of $120O for the same length of time. This petition further promised an extension of their lines to Toulmineville, Pritchards and Whistler, extensions of the Government and Dauphin street lines free transfers from one intersection line to another. heavy rails and sundry im- provements at Monroe Park, which is the property of the company. They also asked for permission to connect their various lines and for additional tracks in the city. The General Council referred the petition to standing committee known as the street committee. The ma jority of the committee reported, favor Ing an extension of the franchise till 1867 and stipulating that the consolidated company should pay for the privilege the sum of $1200 per annum at this time, $1b00 per annum should the population in- crease to 60000 and 5000 per annum should 1t increase to 75.000. They made no provision for further compensation should the city grow beyond that number. The minority of the committee reported ad- yersely upon the proposition, stating that the franchise asked for was for too long term and the compensation proposed was too small These reports were to have been considered at the a regular meeting of the General Council to be held September 15, but upon a petition signed by a majority of the members, of the Council the meeting was hastened to September D..
 At the meeting held on the latter date l got the floor and contended that the public should be made acquainted with a matter of so much import and the two reports should be published for their in-
