Became Unbalanced.

Ed Powers became unbalanced
temporarily, at least-while at
tending services conducted by Rev.
Hodge at the M. E. church Monday
evening. He became violent and
tore his wife's dress in an effort to
compel her to "come forward"
He was finally restrained. He has
been cared for at the home of his
parents for the last few days, and it
is rep orted that he is improving.
This is another name added to the
list already too long of thos, who
have lost their reason because of
excessive religious excitement.
From what we can learn of Rev
Hodge he is not the kind of a man
to occupy a pulpit. His lewd
stories coarse talk and dramatic
actions desc rate rather than sane.
tify the place. 1t is fair to the
ministry and church members to
say that few, if any, of them
approve such language and conduct.

Canvassers Completed Work on
Papers of State Candidates.

The State Board of Canvassers
worked FIVE or six hours yesterday
and completed the canvass of the
petitions of candidates for state
Offices. The Board is down to con-
gressmen and will probably finish
the canvass of all the petitions to-
day.
awe must finish the work today"
said Secretary of State Denton
yesterday, "by Saturday we must
have all of the figures in the hands
of the county clerks. The law re
quires that the list of candidates
must be certified out to the county
clerks July 4 and We are taking that
to mean that the lists must be in
the hands of the clerks by that time.
That means the list must leave here
Thursday and Friday"
All ofthe petitions of candidates
for state Office were valid. No
defects were found serious enough
to justify throwing petition out

NATIONAL CAMPAIGNS COSTLY.
Amounts Spent by Parties I'm Presi.
Dental Election Years.

Recent debates in Congress on a
national publicity bill have revealed
some interesting facts, not the ieast
OF these being that as far back AS
1850, when Lincoln and Douglass
were the opposing candidates of the
Republican and Democratic parties
respectively, tremendous amounts of
money were expended for campaign
purposes. In only two Presidential
elections sice 1860 has the Repub-
Leans spent less than the Democrats.
Those two years were in 1884, when
James c. Blaine and Grover Cleve-
| land were the candidates, and in
| 1892, when Harrison and Cleveland
were the nominees of their party.
| The following, which is believed to
be as accurate as it is possible to
make it. shows the total expendi-
lures of both the Republican and the
Democratic parties since 1860:
| 1860. Abraham Lincoln, $780,
900; Douglass, $4,000.
| 1864, Abraham Lincoln. $125.0OO;
Mcclellan. $4,000.
1868. T. S. Grant, $15O.O0O; Sey-
mour. $4,000.
1872, U. S. Grant. $25O.OO0; Hor-
ace Greely. $4,000.

JOHNSON'S PLATFORM.
Please Wall Street and the Thieving
Trusts.

The Springfield Republican says
the platform adopted by the Mime
sofa Democrats in placing Gov. John
son before the country as Presiden-
tial candidate, is manifestly keyed
10 suit the Eastern and Southern con-
servative wing Of the party, while
containing compliments and conces-
sions calculated to concilate the fol
lowing of Mr.. Bryan. No one who
was ignorant of Gov. Johnson's re-
cord in Minnesota would know from
this platform how much OF a radical
he had been in his present office, for
the platform contains no hint of
;ome OF the policies which, as Gov
arnor, he has advocated.
This appeal to the conservative
| wing of the national Democracy is.
however. the kind of politics which
iov. Jchnson's Presidential candidacy
now forces upon him. He must win
he nomination. if that he possible
rot by competing with Mr.. Bryan II
| lis own line, but by setting himself
| I'D as contrast. Gov. Johnson :
| Presidential candidacy had its origin
the growing desperation of those
| Democrats who could not endure the
'hought of another Bryan candidacy
lr the thought of Bryan in the White
| House, and its chief dynamic force Is
derived from the bitterness felt for
Bryan by the elements represented
most conspicuously by the New York
World
