BRO. SCHNEBLY accuses us of be-
ing a democrat for "revenne. If
there are any other kind of demo-
carts we would like to see one of
them. In the same squib he also
says we are socialist. There is q
vast difference between the two or.
CARNATIONS. He would be social
ist if there were any money in it
for him, for he virtually acknowl-
edges that he sand we all know it is
true, democrat for the pap and
revenue it will furnish him. He
was a populist when it was popular
and held the position OF deputy
sheriff as such, and as he was a
populist for revenue, and is it
not also fact that he had to write
a statement for the press that in
case Mr.. Stinson was 70 elected, he
would be his deputy and did not
Mr.. Stinson publish a statement to
the effect that if he was reelected
that he positively would not ap.
point Mr.. Schnebly as his deputy?
Then Mr.. Schnsbly became dem
ocrat about that time and after the
election asked Gov. Rogers to ap-
point him warden Of the state PEN
itentiary. Was it revenue he want.
cd, or was it office?
Gov. Rogers said nay, but l Will
put you on the state fair commits
sion. He accepted and entered in
to a contract for a -four hundred
dollar rake-off for each member Of
the commission except for BILLY"
Lee, who was to have one hundred
dollars only, and "Billy" squealed.
Was it revenue he wanted or was
it just Office?
He says the republicans patted
us on the back and thus caused
the ticket in part to be lost. This
10 frank admission. Wonder if
he claims everything in sight.
Perhaps he thought we would, as
loyal citizens, support the ticket
from bottom to top and he could
scratch the ticket as he pleased,
voting for few republican friends
who happened to be on the ticket,
especially those who came within
the family circle, and no one would
be the wiser for it.
Then he asks who is putting up
the money for us, Hanna or Debs?
Why bless your gizzard, it is folly
to answer such question only to
satisfy your morbid curiosity as it
will do you no good and no one
else would think of asking such a
question. Suffice to say that Meth
or of the above men will ever put
up dollar for you when they
want a paper, as they want one
with more than forty Subscribers
and one with some influence.

RESULT OF BLOOD POISON.
Physicians Issue More Hopeful BulletiD
Regarding the Illness of President
McKinley's Wife.

Washington, June 9.-Mrs- McKin-
1ey's physicians have issued the fol-
lowing bulletin: Mrs. McKinley's ill
ness has been blood infection re-
sulting from periostitis of the index
finger (bone felon) which began in
Los Angeles, and which was prompt
~ treated by incision. The subse-
quent condition of exhaustion was
due to the same blood infection as
severated with severe diarrhoea.
She improved, however, and was
brought home in comfort and without
loss Of strength. The principal cause
of anxiety in her case since her ar
rival in Washington has been acute
endocarditis inflammation of lining
membrane of the hearty involving
the mitral valve, the result Of the
same blood infection. This does not
appear to be progressive and there
has been an improvement in the
diarrhoea and in her general condi-
ton. Mrs. McKinley's case at the
present time presents a more cheerful
aspect"

MR.. MERCER GETS POSTED.
Congressman from Nebraska Calls at the
White House to Inquire About the
Appointment of POstmasters.

Washington, June 10.-Representa-
tive Mercer, of Nebraska, called at the
white house to ascertain the policy
of the president in the matter of re-
appointment of postmasters and other
federal officers whose terms expire
during the recess of congress. He
learned that, generally speaking,
where it was the intention of the
president to reappoint the present in
cumbents the appointments would be
held over until after congress con-
vened. In this way the necessity of
filing two bonds will be avoided. In
the case of officers having fixed ten
ures it may be necessary to make the
appointments during the recess.

THE CYCLONE In OKLAHOMA.
A Correspondent Says That the Recent
Storm Devastated Kay County and Ruin
ed the Wheat on 400 Farms.

Wichita, Kan, June 1O.-A CORE
spondent who arrived here last night
from the scene of devastation in Kay
county, Ok, says that the cyclone
and hail of Friday night ruined the
wheat crop of 400 farms west and
northwest of Blackwell. These farms
are all in one body of territory. The
farmers who have purchased Irvine
and harvest machinery are asking
the local dealers to take them back,
and they have referred the matter to
the factories. The loss of crops will
cause no distress as the farmers are
in good shape financially, owing to a
succession of good crops during the
past five seasons.

Washington, June 1O.-The United
States government has again appealed
to the powers to submit the present
issues at Pekin over the indemnity
propositions to the arbitration of The
Hague tribunal. Mr.. Rockhill, who
has been watching for an opportu-
nifty, cabled Secretary Hay for permits
sion to make a proposition and the
secretary cabled him authority to do
so. It is believed that the ministers
at Pekin have become involved beyond
eXtrication in the present issues and
this proposition may be the only way
out.

SHERIFF HAD NERVE.
Georgia Officer Protected a Negro
from an Angry Mob.
One Man Was Killed and Two Badly wound-
ed-GOv. Gambler Says the Entire Mill
tary Force VIII Be Used to
Preserve Order.

CarrOlltOn, Ga, June S.-Ihe nerve
of a Georgia sheriff, whose name is
Joseph Merrill, yesterday upheld the
law of the state and saved the life of
a negro from a mob. In protecting
the negro, who was saved from the
gallows only few hours before
through the efforts of his lawyers,
one life was lost and two men were
wounded. The arrival of the state
militia averted threatened trouble
last night and at nine o'clock spe-
cial train, bearing the negro, whose
crime was the murder of a little white
boy whom he found fishing alone, was
speeding towards Atlanta, under
guard. The man killed in attacking
the Jail was George Bennett, of Car
rollton, and the wounded men are
Thomas S. Word, father of the MUIR
dered boy, and an unknown man, pre-
sumably farmer.
Williams, the negro who caused the
trouble. was tried and found guilty of
numbering Otis Word January 1, 1901,
and sentenced to be hanged yesterday.
He was only yesterday morning re-
fused new trial by Judge Harris, but
his attorneys fled bill of exceptions
and carried the case to the supreme
court.
During the afternoon the mob tele-
phoned the situation to friends in the
adjoining towns of Villa Rica and
Temple and made an appeal for more
men to get possession of the negro.
This was communicated also to Gov.
Gambler and the governor soon wired
a proclamation to the people of the
county. 1t was read from the steps of
the courthouse at four o'clock by the
mayor. The governor commanded the
people to dispense and said the entire
military and civil forces of the state
would be used to enforce order if nee
essary. The reading of the proclama-
ton apparently had good effect, as
many people were seen to mount their
horses and leave town. Much appre-
hension was felt for the night and
the sheriff and city and. county Off
Gals after a consultation decided to
take the prisoner out of the county
for safe keeping. The Atlanta mill
tia, under command of Maj. Barker,
arrived about six o'clock and one hour
later escorted the negro and Sheriff
Merrill to the train, which was soon
speeding southwark to Atlanta.

ALLEGED HERETO.
Trouble in Kansas Wesleyan Col
lege Over Discharge of Teacher.
DR.. Tubbs Refuses to Believe That All the
Bible Is Inspired and the Students
Are with Him-A Clash
Probable.

Salina, Kan, June S.-Tbe students
of the Kansas Wesleyan university
are in rebellion because the trustees
refused to re-e1ect Prof. Frank d.
Tubbs to the chair of natural sciences
on account of his alleged heretical
views. The annual commencement
address to the graduates was given
by Gov. Stanley, and Immediately
afterwards, by a preconcerted move
ment, the students, who are a unit
on the side of DIR. Tubbs, took con-
troll of the exercises and demanded
a public explanation of the trustees
action. Fiery speeches were made by
a half dozen students and ministers.
An effort was made to appease the
students, but they refused to be ap-
peased until the trustees agreed to
meet their committee and listen to
their demands for the reinstatement
of DIR. Tubbs. His alleged heresy con-
sists of radical belief in evolution
and in denying that all of the Bible
is inspired. Other ministers of the
Northwest Kansas conference share
his views, and it is believed that this
is the beginning of a clash between
the orthodox and the liberal elements
of the Methodist church of the west.
DIR. Tubbs is an associate editor of
the Central Christian Advocate, the
official organ of the Methodist church
in the middle west.
Rev. DIR. Daniel McGurl<, of Jewell
City, said: ''Dr. Tubbs is an evolution
list, and he is simply teaching the
same things that are taught in North
western university and the principal
Methodist theological schools. There
are lot of old fogies among the
ministers of this conference who want
to deny the right of a man to think
for himself. For my part, propose
to think for myself and say what I
think. They have been after me the
same as they have after DR.. Tubbs,
and I propose to leave this confer
ence. If I can't get transfer to suit
me, L will go on the lecture plat
