"Inencient; unbusinesslike."

1T seems to be the democratic nature

This sentence was the keynote of the
speech o. Representative Gillett OF Mas
sachusetts. From that utterance he
branched out to say:
1.-THE record shows that during the first
year of C.eveiaEd's last administration,
with his party in full control of both
branches Of c nsress. none of the twelve
general appropriation bills was passed
until several days after the fiscal year
had begun, and some of them not for
many weeks. The asst two years OF thrt
q administration Of Mr.. Cleveland, Congress
was controlled by the republicans. and.
needless to state, the public business. so
far as that body was C, ncerned. was
promptly dispatched; al q the appropr.a-
ten bills were enacted in due season and
years for which they made PROVISION.
"And now as soon as the democratic
party gains power again they re: eat

Eleventh District, has notified AS
.iStant Secretary of State Nansant
that he would not make the race,
and has requested thai his name be
not placed On The ballot Nat =.

nee in the same district, has also
served the same notice and MIR. Van

names will not appear on the ballots.
This leaves only Caleb Powers, Re-
publican nominee, and john II. Will
son, of Barbouryille. Independent, as
candidate for the Office.
Both Mr.. Creech and Mr.. Scwell
have stated that they will support Mr..
Wilson in an effort to defeat Powers,
and with this combination of the
Democrats, Progressives and hide
pendents, it seems likely that their
end will be accomplished.

The Hartford Republican published
in Ohis county, comes out in It's last
issue with a strong statement 10 the
effect that it cannot consclentiously
support the Republican nominee, and
urges as the principal reason for
this is that Wilson received his cam

81 HAD TO CIRCULATE 1T.

The speech which ex-governor Will
son made in Louisville a few days
ago was such a good one, according
to his notions, that he did not feel
inclined to waste it on the few that
came to the meeting, and so had it
published in pamphlet form for dis
tribution throughout the district. To
show the great interest that is being
taken by Republicans throughout the
State in this campaign, there were
about thirty-six in the crowd that
was present to hear Wilson. One
newspaper reporter counted 30, and
another counted 81, so 36 will be
fair average. The speaking had been
thoroughly advertised, and the size
of the crowd about illustrates the
popularity Of the Ex-Governor in
