EVANGELIST WILLIAMS.
Extract Prom Waukegan, Illinois,
Paper.

Yesterday was the browning
glory of the revival, without any
exception the greatest religious de
monstratlon the eyes of Waukegan
people ever witnessed, end the
most enthusiastic series of services
it was ever their privilege to enjoy.
In round numbers one hundred
souls were converted yesterday
What was thought the last day
of the remarkable Christian awak-
ening added to the list Of converts
a hundred more, making in all
about 700 converts as a result of
the great undertaking. In short,
let it be said that Waukegan is a
better place than it was a month
ago. 1t has been turned upside
down, lodges have been converted,
euchre parties have been turned in
to Bible classes, drunkards made
Christians, and wicked lives start
ed on lfe's journey in brighter
pathways. 1t has been wonder
full month, past all the hopes and
expectations of the most hopeful,
great exposition of what band
of hard working Christians can do
for the advancemento of Christianity.

Mr.. Williams will preach his first
sermon in Mt Sterling 1870 a. M. +,
Sunday, Aug. 2. Don't miss the
first service.

If the Editor of the Gazette hac
Just written that double header,
so full Of pathos, a few weeks ago,
and with prophetic eye, had look
ed down the vista of time and
seen his admired, adored, honor
ed, loved, great, wise and good
w. c. P. Breckenridge wrestling
with arguments, the tendency Of
which was a return to the Demo
cratic party, he might have
changed his course Of thoughts
and saved his beloved. Too late
now, arguments have committed
him. 30, it is pitiful." The
harder to bear is this separation
in connection with the statement
which is in substance this: 81 al
ways prefer in choosing between
evils the lesser and the Demo
cratic party may be bad, but the
Republican party is worse. This
from his reference encyclopedia.
O! pity.

ENTHUSIASTIC.

We would have the people
make this prediction: The Demo
Gratis are going to roll up the larg
est majority for years. There are
reasons for this. First Kentucky
is democratic; second the party is
united, and third the enthusiasm
is so manifest that the vote will
come out. This cry Of Republi-
can honesty and capabilities over
other people is all rot.

OBSERVATIONS FROM
WASHINGTON.

n SOOu many f~OPi~
not be accused of boodling, never
theless are sticking their hands
down into the pockets of the PEG
iple lust at this time. Nearly
every man who is high enough Ut
on the pay rolls of the Govern
ment seems to be seized with ar
insane desire to go out on a junk
citing trip this summer at the eX
pense Of the people. The Score
tary of the Navy, not long ago,
took out big bunch Of Congress-
men and took whiz around the
West Indies on a government YES
sci and the people paid the bill.
The Presidents family then took
his "private yacht" which is a
government vessel, and proceeded
to their summer home at Oyster
Bay. The vessel is always ready
for use for pleasure parties for the
Roosevelt children, going to boat
races or taking Miss Alice to the
city when she feels that she needs
paper of pins. Not long ago the
members OF Congress who were on
the Naval Affairs Committee in the
last House, took a Government
vessel and started out on a junket
with the ostensible purpose Of in
specting the different Notifications
along the coast of the country,
and the naval needs Of the coun-
try. What right these members
have to make the people pay for
any such trip is more than any
man can tell. There is no official
naval committee in existence, SO
far as the House Of Representa-
tives is concerned. How do these
men know they will be placed on
the Committee on Naval Affairs
when the next House is organized?
They do not know it, and yet they
are squandering the peoples mon
ey for the ostensible purpose Of
posting themselves on the needs
Of the people in the way OF naval
expenditures. The chances are
they will see more "high balls"
than they will cannon balls. and
more kings" and Queens" than
they will naval necessities. Post
master General Payne, who has
been made "sick, presumably by
smelling the stencil in his depart
ment, is the latest to take Gov
eminent vessel, and with his fami-
ly 90 out on the deep blue sea
where he can smell the perfume
Of the brine instead of official cor.
ruption. And the people pay the
bill. Well, why shouldn't they?
They are responsible for the mil
lions accumulated in the Treasury.
They voted a tariff tax on them
selves that would pile up a surplus
of cash in the Treasury, and this
is the only way to get it back into
the channels Of trade, unless they
take a notion to quit taxing them
selves for the benefit Of trusts,
tariff barons and junketers. Until
they do they may expect that a
Republican administration, guilt
less Of sympathy with the people,
will continue to have a good time
with their money and elbow it in !"
like drunken sailor.

If those concerned would make
the effort they might clean up along
the Walsh building so that mer-
chants on tire same side of Main St.,
could be reached by their custo-
mers without having to go out into
the street.
