JENKINS ae TTL ITE THE LOTTERY BILL. Meaning of the Enactment Now Before the Executive for Approval. Wasnrxetox, Sept. 16. The anti- lottery bill, having now past both houses, it only awaits the signa- ture of the President to become a law and there is no likelihood of any ‘upnecessary delay on that account. The postal authorities are prepared to enforce it vigorously, and is there- fore important that the public should understand its provisions. The bill gives great power to the Postmaster- General and after it becomes a law it will be very dangerous for any person to mingle with the lottery tickets. It forbids the carrying in the mails cr the. delivery at or through any post office, or by any mail-cairier, of any letter, postal card or circular concerning any lottery or any list of drawings of the same, or - any lottery tickets or part thereof, or any check, draft, bill, money, pos- tal note or money order for the pur- chase of any ticket. It forbids car- rying any newspaper, circular, pamphlet or publication of any kind prizes of any such lotiery. It for- * bids any person from depositing or causing to be deposited or knowing- ly sending or causing to be sent any such matter by mail. It provides that proceedings for violations of this law may be instituted in the district in which the mailing was done, or at the place to which it is carried for delivery, or at the place to where it is delivered to the person addressed. It provides for prevent- ing the delivery of mail containing registered funds or money orders addressed to lottery companies or | M. their agents. The Tables Turned. Columbus, Ind., Sept., 18.—There ~ is trouble in the city schools with the colored children. The trustees provided a teacher as usual and al- soa seperate room, such as they have been providing fur severai years, but the colored children re- fused to accept the school privileges offered them. The trustees were no- tified some time ago that the color- ed people wanted aseperate build- iug and a colored teaeher, but their request was not complied with and the colored children remain out of school. , Seventeen Killed.

I know alittle family in Detroit who are heart-broken and sad this Satur- day night. There was three last Saturday, but to-day only two are left. The tie that bound them more close- ly than that which the clergyman drew has been lately loosened, and the light of their countenance went out with the red winter sun only the other night. The father is a railroad man whose duties call him away from home nearly three-fourths of the time. It was his habit, when- ever he was about to start for home, to telegraph to his wife, apprising her of the fact. In the telegram he never failed to mention the name of their little four-year-old, and the dispatch usually ran as follows: “Tell Arthur I shall sleep with him to-right.”. The baby boy was very proud of these telegrams, which his mother would read over to him, and he consider the “teledraf” a great institution. The other night when the fever had done its work, and the mother was sobbing out her anguish the little one turned calmly in his Send Dod a teledraf, and tell him I s'all seep wiv him to-night.” But the message went up there without the clicking of wires or the rustle of wings.—Detroit Free press.

When she had Children, she gave them Castoria Neither Man a Crack Shot. Carrolton, Ky., Sept. 21.—Robt. . Williams, exesheriff of Owen county, and George S. Dean, a prominent farmer, met here yester- day and fought a street duel, in which Williams was shot three times and dangerously wounded. Williams accused Dean of betraying his daughter and promised to shoot him on sight and when he saw Dean, pulled his revolver and empted its contents at him but missed him every time. Dean returned the fire planted three bullets in Williams’ body. Electric Bitters. This remedy is becoming so well known and so popular as to need no special mention.

The fa ners of Ray county are nterestcd in the re-election rge G. Vest to the United States Seante. Tle has made a gal- lant fi,;ht for the farmers against ithe Chico cattle combine, and for ; combination, which us of dollars from tle raisers of the » use money free- l s defeat. Democrats should be on their guard. Emissa- ries fr?m this very beef combine are at work all Missouri to-day » over ;| With but one object in view, and that object is to defeat Vest. Fel- lows apparently innocent, ch, so in- nocent, are to be found in every county finding iault with the Demo- cratic nominees for the Legislature and the Senate. In Ray county there are several of these fellows mouthing about Farris. Trying to dig up something or other that has been buried about a dozen years in order to get up a controyersy. They care nothing about trying to defeat Farris. Vest is the man they are after and they are working in the interest of the Chicago beef combine Again you find fellows, without any apparent personal interest, working against Sebee. Are they doing this work for the love of the thing? We rather suspect not. There is a motive at the bottom of it, and we don’t have to go far to find out what is the matter. These things should be a warning to democrats to be up and doing. Ray county has a yery safe democratic majority, that the money of the beef combine can’t reach, but we want to keep it safe. Farris must be elected by an in- creased majority in order to rebuke the combine, and Sebee must not have less than 1,000 majority. Dem- ocrats must work and not falter. The farmers {can’t afford to have Vest defeated.-Richmond Democrat. The Missouri Campaign. The action of the democrats of Missouri in holding an early conven- tion was wise, as opportunity was thus given for a vigorous three months’ campaign of education. Though considerable time has pass- ed in getting the work fairly inau- rated, there are many ways iu which the state committee can render most valuable service to the party during the time that remains before the elec- tion. 1t can not only provide for a thorough general canvass of the state, but energetic work under its direction in close republican coun- ties will result in marked gains in the legislature. A good deal has been said about “holding the doubt- ful counties,” meaning close demo- cratic counties where the republi- eans are centering their attack. The situation in such counties deserves the most careful consideration, but it should not exclude equal consid. eration for the close republican counties which in such a year as this will easily become democratic if suf- ficient energy is shown by the chair- man of the state committee and his able associates. It will be a mistake to hold back the campaign with a view to leaving the work entirely with the democrats of the Missouri congressional dele- gation. There is not one of them who will not do his part and more, but the whole power of the party must be exerted. Activity is called for, not only on the part of the var- ious committees, but of the rank and file of the party. Democrats must be watchful and aggressive. Al- though the republican state conven- tion repudiated all farmers’ candi- dates and openly snubbed the agri- cultural interests of the state, the republican committee is still work- ing through its agents in the farm- ers’ lodges, attempting to divide them and neutralize their influence. Another method of republican work } $1.06 per bottle ‘at any drugstore. | against which democrats must be es-| | pecially watchful is trading combi- jnations on county officers. They jare anxious to giye votes for county | officers in return for votes for the legislature, and they would probably give two for one if they could there-| by effect such combinations. Dem-} jocrats would force off the ticket any |county nominee guilty of the treach- ery of such trading, and while dem- ocratic nominees for county offices are as a rule incapable of it, the re- publicanism must be watched at all points. e It was lamented during the Dress- ed Beef investigation that “the Big Four” of Chicago would have some- thing to say in the election of the next Missouri legislature, and the republicans will certainly miss no opportunity of adding to their cam paign fund. Democrats have no money to spend, and no desire to imitate the corrupt practice of the republican managers. Reliance for democratic success against corrup- tion funds and trickery must be on democratic activity and vigilant ag- gressiveness. The campaign in Missouri should not be one of waiting for republican attack, but of attack on republican- ism at all points. There are as many close republican counties in the state as there are close democratic—about 30 in each case—which the party calculators, on one side or the other, claim as doubtful. It is certainly easy for the democrats to carry the doubtful counties as the republicans. —St. Lovis Republic. KANSAS ©ITY Fair and Races, Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 27 to 28.
