Congressman Glllett is making a
tour of the southern part of the state,
to size up the situation politically.
He annoucnes that he is not to be
considered, under any circumstance,
candidate for denomination to con-
gress. He is after the gubernatorial
plum, and nothing else. 1t is that or
nothing with him. And there is no
question that he has considerable
strength behind him, whether sufii-
cient to land the prize is a moot
point. 1t is hardly probably that
anv candidate will come anywhere
near having a majority at the outset.
The prospect for stubborn and pro-
longed fight are excellent, If such a
scrimnage can be titly designated by
such an expression. There are at
least six candidates spoken on the
republican side, namely, Pardee,
GiIlett, Porter, Hayes, Gage and
Edison, with others in the back
ground. If bitter contest ensues,
creating animosities that Will be
likely to exert potent influence
upon the success of the leading candi-
dates, compromise candidate may
be trotted out, satisfactory to all the
warning elements

The spasm for Sunday observance
at Louisville, KY, has resulted in a
determination to prosecute tho pub
Usher of Sunday papers there. These
spasms occur at intervals all over the
country, from New England to Cali
tornia, and the result is always trou-
BILE, quarreling and expense. The
spasm usually lasts three or four
months; then the towns afflicted drift
back into their old habits. It's a
pity that laws are adopted that can
not be enforced. for the tendency is
to create contempt for the law gen.
orally. -Atchieson Globe.
