Cummins men they have come here
expecting .to either be kept out of their
seats in the convention by fraud or to
have to nominate ticket separate

means the defeat of several congress-

the prospect. The prediction is made
that Lacey and Cousins and Hepburn
and Dawson and Blythe's nominee in
the Burlington district will go down in
the crash One radical expressed the
opinion that we had been strutting
around while our tail feathers had al
ways been plucked to make sofa pill
lows at Burlington, and he was ready
for the cock fight TO begin.
The feeling can not be mistaken that
anti Cummins delegates realize that
there is a strong majority against
them. They admit it openly. Even
Colonel Raymond, of Hampton, run
ming for lieutenant governor, admits it.
On the other hand, the Cummins dele
gates are so sure that they are to be
euchered out of what they have fairly
won that they are straining their eye
sight to see how it is going to be done.
If the state central committee votes
this afternoon to seat the Cummns
men in all of the fake contests, and
then to even it up by seating the Per-
l1ins men in the three counties of Wa
pello. jefferson and Jasper, as | firmly
believe they will do, the nomination of
Cummins would be made sure, but
there would still be grave doubts as to
Garst and Hayward. Cummins has $50
votes for himself. He may not have
them all on other propositions, that is,
he may not be able to deliver them to
Garst, and certainly not as to Hay
ward. since 20 votes in Polk county
have been instructed for Hites. l have
heard the governor say that upon the
evidence the Cummins men in Jasper
and Wapello counties are as fairly en-
counties, but that there seemed to be
contests inspired by the people from
these counties, which should be heard
by credentials committee in the con-
vention. The Cummins men cannot
afford to give up all these delegates if
they expect to keep the railroads from
naming senate committees and control
ling the executive council. A vote on
this proposition must come in the con-
vention either on the election of tenn
porary chairman or upon a minority
report of credentials committee to
seat them. In either event if any of
the fake contests are used by State
Chairman Spence to keep Cummins
delegates out of this voting, or If the
Perkins delegates from these three
counties are permitted to vote. on their
own contests, there will be split and
two conventions in the same hall at
the same time. Each side is determ-
ined not to be the bolter, hence neither
will leave the convention hall, and the
question as to which will be the regu-
lar republican ticket will go up to an
election board composed .~of men
friendly to Governor Cummins.

DON'T KILL THE BIRDS.


When Mr. Smell came into the Of
flee of mayor of this city some years
ago. he was one day called upon by
a gentleman who was much interest
ed in the preservation of "our feath-
cred friends" the birds Said the
mayor: Il am as much crank on
the protection of the birds as you
can possibly be, and shall be glad to
do all in my power to that end. lie
suggested that the newspapers should
be asked to aid the movement. by pub
fishing the stringent law in the code,
and by admonishing the young men
and boys against their criminal acts,
in killing the useful and innocent birds.
He also said that he would instruct
the policemen to caution the blrd-klll-
ers that that sport must at once
cease. IF any persist in this evil
doing" said the mayor, they VIII be
arrested and brought to this office ana
most likely some will be fined But
this determination on the part OF the
mayor stopped the nefarious business
at once. The newspapers nobly dld
their part and it was soon heraided
over this and other states that Boone
had taken effective steps against
bird aestroyers. No arrests followed.
because the young men ana poys
obeyed the law. This healthy sentl-
ment has prevailed almost ever since
the good work of Mayor Smell. But
now complaints come to us that lhe
bird killers are again at their GRIM
inal work, mainly in the outskirts OF
the city. We therefore call the atten-
ton of our city readers to this sub
iect. Bird killing must cease = eN-

A LIGHT VOTE.

1t was generally expected that
the vote in Tennessee would be
light, but it was not supposed it
would be the lightest cast since
the war, says an exchange.
Two years ago Frazier's vote
was Isl sos; Littleton's was l03,-
500, and Rays l,109, making a to-
tai vote for governor of 245,02l.
-Four years ago the combined vote
was OIL ,623. This year, with a
voting population of over three
hundred thousand the lightest vote
was polled that has been cast for
for forty years, about one third of
the voters failing or refusing to
exercise the right of suffrage.
Commenting on this the Knox
vile Sentinel says:
"Unless conditions in Tennessee
materially change, it is barely pos
sible that it may come necessary
to enact compulsory voting law
in order to drive the voters to the
polls"
"But this is not the remedy"
says the Paris Post-Intelligencer.
IF all parties would place in nom
ination their best men,. men of un-
doubted ability and moral charac-
ter, the voters would think itworth
their while to go to the polls. But
when candidates are denounced
as immoral and totally unworthy,
whether true or not, many men
will refuse to vote for them"
