BIG Loss IN CORN
Seems to Have Been Caused by Rot
--Bushei to Shock Is Spoiled.

Much complaint is being heard
from farmers all over Lincoln and
in other sections Of the prevalence
of rot in corn. Some say that the
bad ears are showing up to the
amount Of a bushel to the shock
1t had generally been expected that
one Of the best corn crops known
in many years would be the harvest
in Central Kentucky this year, but
the rot caused by too much rain on
the shock will cut down the esti-
mate considerably.

- hNIf wv A"A'5 HNoAN
Of the al.ny, was placed on the
retired list several days ago
when he reached the statutory
age limit Of "a years, has re-
to old time Republican
national politicians and others
who attended the Republican
national convention Of 1884 a
memorable scene in that con
vention. Dwight NJ. Sabin of
Minnesota was chairman of the
national committee that year.
The committee recommended as
temporary chairman of the con-
vention Powell Clayton of Ar
kansas. Henry Cabot Lodge of
Massachusetts,, now senior Sen
ator for his State, led in Oppos-
ing the recommendation of the
national committee and moved
to substitute the name of John
R. Lynch of Mississippi, at that
time one of the most influential
negro politicians in the country.
Mr.. Lodge was supported by the
late Silas B. butcher, George
William Curtis and Theodore
Roosevelt of New York. There
was a terrible battle over the
temporary craftsmanship and
racial feeling ran very high,
Clayton being a Sothern white
man arrayed against Lynch, a
Southern negro. Speechmaking
went ON for hours, and finally
the result of the vote of the del
egates to the convention was as
follows:
Whole number Of votes cast..S16
John R. Lynch e.. =. =. =. 424
Powell Clayton e. -. 81. e.. 394
Majority for Lynch e. 40
y The stand taken by
Lodge, butcher, Curtis and others
of New York in favor of Lynch
was due to their opinion that
Lynch's elevation would
strengthen the Republican party
all over the country. The negr
Republican had been neglected
to some extent. The negro Re
publicans all over the country
would appreciate the honor OF
one of their race presiding over
a Republican national convention,
Inasmuch as the South was solid
w Democratic the defeat OF
Clayton, it was urged, would have
no material effect on the South
ern States. The defeat OF
Blaine, the candidate of that con-
vention for President, by the
narrow plurality in New York
State for Grover Cleveland is
well remembered.
Twelve years later at Chicago
the Democrats took a hand In
turning out the candidate pro
posed for temporary chairman Of
the convention, David B. Hill
The Democratic national com
mittee's choice, Mr.. Hill, was op-
posed by Representative Henry
D. Clayton of Alabama, who
spoke for twenty-three members
of the national committee as OPP
posed by twenty-seven. Repres.
entative Clayton had at ms
back Clark Howell of Georgia
Daniel J. Chapan of Michigan
Robert L. Owen, now Unitec
