Altgeld has reconvened the Illinois legislature, and the gang of rascals will have another tussle with the lobby. One great trouble with the third party is to find a name for itself, All that it has tried are in bad odor, and it would be well to adopt one that will stick. The most appropri- ate name that could be selected is the Destructives. This means some- thing and is warranted to wear.— Globe Dem. C. B.

We quote from Bradstreet’s, un has rarely received more forcible After a whole generation of expe riencing the beauties and beneficence of a high tariff, the American people and call for the adoption of a radi cally different policy. Such strong headedness is truly startling. But worse than all else, it is under a wicked democratic administration that there is occurring an industrial and commercial revival which prom- ises to surpass any the country has known before. Of course political economists declared with one voice that the adoption of a tariff for rev enue policy would be followed by just such state of affairs; but the political economists are mere theo rists, visionaries, doctrinattes, and it really is distressing that the course of events should seem to lend sanc tion to their outlandish notions Men and brethren, what shall we do to be saved from the flood of pros- perity that threatens to sweep Mc Kinleyism from the face of the earth?

The last legislature gave Eldorado Springs a division of the circuit court, and when a day or so ago the circuit clerk started for El- dorado to open an office injunction papers were filed by Stockton and the clerk was stopped. ¥ Suit has been brought at Jefferson City, asking for a writ{of prohibition to prevent the Secretary of State from submitting to the qualified voters of the State the concurrent resolution providing for the removal of the State capital to Sedalia. One point raised is that the removal resolution is invalid because it does not provide that it shall go into ef- fect as an operative amendment to the constitution. Another}f{point is that such an amendment to the con- stitution would be in the nature of invalidating a contract between the State and Government. Under an act of Congress six sections of Jand were granted the State to aid in building a permanent %seat of Gov- ernment. This land was accepted by the State, and sold, and the pro- ceeds applied to constructing a State house in this city. The case will be argued eome time next month before Judge Shackleford. —_—_———— The National Republicar League meeting at Cleveland, Ohio, dodged all the issues, and resolved to say or do nothing that could be construed in any way to forestall issues for the national convention of 1896. The silver element in the convention was the stumbling block on which the League foundered. The gold standard men were not satisfied, but could not see any way to do any- thing better than to adopt the Patten substitute for the resolutions. The free silver element of the League was elated. They say if free silver was not adopted by the League, nothing else was, and that indicated that the republicans concede that they can not get along jwithout the western states. The silver wing of the party claimed to have received more advantage than was ever expected. It is well known that telegrams were received from}an act which will Quincey, Illinois, June 20.—-Ralph Turner, a bright 13 year-old boy, committed suicide here yesterday by hanging himself in the attic of his parents’ home. The boy had been playing in the wet grass, and his mother called him into the house to give him a scolding. The boy went sulking into the attic, and twenty minutes later was found dead. He had used a large United States flag for a rope, having twisted it, and a chair was found tipped over under his body. Mrs. Turner does not believe that her son meant to sui- cide. It is her opinion that he tried to scare her, but went too far. Killed the Man Who Insulted Her. Birmingham, Ala, June 20.— Bruce Flanigan, son of the proprie- tress of the leading hotel at Green- wood Springs, was shot and instantly killed last night by Mrs. Frank Dean, who lives near the hotel. Last evening Flanigan went to the Dean residence while Mr. Dean was absent, and, it is alleged, addressed Mrs. Dean in an insulting manner. He was armed The woman dis- armed the young man, and with the same weapon shot him in the head, killing him instantly To make sure of her work she secured her husband’s shot gun and discharged both barrels into the dead man’s breast. She was not arrested. New Laws to Take Effect To-day. Jefferson City. Me., June 20.— All the laws passed by the Thirty- eighth General Assembly go into effect to morrow. One of the most important of the new statutes is one which imposes a tax of 25c on each $1,000 of capital of a proposed corporation. which must be paid into the State Treasury before articles can be filed with the Secretary of State or eyidence of incorporation issued. This law was drawn by Senator C. E. Yeater, and is design- ed chiefly to get a tax from increases of capital stock, which under the old law were exempt. The Julian franchise law is another impertant law effective after tomorrow. The late general assembly passed county committees, and asa majority of the counties have held conven- der the head of Current Business: | “The perversity of political events} illustration than it is receiving now. | deliberately condemn the system| THE GLORIOUS ath | The Bands Will Play and VAT eth BR state + Shove Cee aa le Str will call a convention.

Louisville, Ky. June 25.—The ad- ministration and Secretary Carlisle were certainly favorites in the Dem- ocratic State conveution here to day. | The silverites went into the district |meetings in the morning and into |the convention at noon with confi- | dence. Iu the district meetings they | |were beaten two to one. They | |claimed four out of the eleven dis-| | trict members of the committee on jresolutions, but the administration | jmen claim that the committee stood leight to the three originally wgainst | | free silver, ‘four. nd as completed nine to! | The complexion of the committee |could not have been changed by the! appointment of both members at/ Narge from the silverites. But when | j Judge W. M. Breckner,as temporary | chairman, divided the members at \large, giving one of the two to each jside, the silver men felt that they had been outclassed, although they | would not confess to being outnum- bered. They claimed a victory in | the election of Breckner over Stone, but after the former divided the ap pointments equally on all the com- |mittees and annouced his conserva | tive vie s, no claims were made on Stone ‘would have ap- pointed only “sound money” men on the committee. Judge Breckner is a “sound money” man, but favored General Hardin for Governor. Al- though Genera! Hardin fayors free coinage, been supported throughout by many who insist on a sound money platform for him. The silver men on the committee on resolutions are: First district, Augustus Coulter; second, W. T. Ellis; third, John S. Rhea; at large, J.D. Clardy. The gold men on the committee are: Fourth district, E. fifth, J. N. Atherton; son; seventh, Arthur Yeager; eighth, James B. McCreary; him. he has sixth, R. A. jninty, John F. Haager; tenth, Joba P. Salyer; eleventh, R. M. Jackson; jat large, Senator William Lindaay. The feature of the day was the de- feat in his home district’ of Senator J.C S Blackburn for member of the committee cn resolutions by Prof. Arthur Yeager, a man of pro-| nounced gold standard views, but who has devoted his time to college work and not to politics. Senator Blackburn aspired to the chairman- ship of this committee and expected to have a majority of its members with him for free coinage against Cleveland and Carlisle. The electiou of a temporary chair. man was announced as the first thing in order. The names of ex Congressman W. J. Stone and Judge and |W. N. Breckner were presented for temporary chairman whea the roll | of 119 counties was called. The roil call proceeded with all sorts of points of order and dilatory confusion for over an hour, when the result was announced at 2 o'elock as follows: Breckner, 4483; Stone, 4204. ‘The total vote was 879, but it was not all cast owing to contests; necessary to choice, 440. The elec tion of Breckner as the temporary presiding cfticer was made unani” mous and a committee appointed to escort him to the chair. As the combination of Hardin for Governor and the silverites support- , ed Breckner, and the combination of Clay for Governor and the “sound }money men” supported Stone, the result of the selection of temporary chairman was received with cheers asa direct advantage for Hardin and indirectly an advantage for the |silver men, who had been peaten in | the forenoon in the district meetings. | On assuming the chair Judge | Brecknor delivered an eloquent ad | dress, and assured all that be repre sented no faction and would rule |with impartiality. He pleaded for {harmony. That part of the address relating to the financial question was not displeasing to the “sound money” and not altogether satisfac. tery to the free coinage men The committee on permanent or- ganization reperted Congreseman A. S. Berry for permanent chairman and other officers were adopted.

The committee on resolutions was ready to report at 9 p. m., but de | layed it’s report awaiting the out-| come of the credentials while fight- i ing over contests among the dele- gates from Louisville and Newport. Senator Lindsay prepared — the | majority report resolutions, which embraced a strong, honest money plank and indorsed Cleveland and Carlisle by name for their finan- cial policy and administrations. It; was signed by nine of the thirteen! members of the committee. There were two minority reports, one signed by Rhea and Ellis for the free coinage of silver at 16 to 1, and | the other simply reaffirming the | platform of 1892, signed by Clardy and Coulter. | on The Kansas City Times, with its | usual enterprise and liberality, bas arranged with a dozen leading col- | leges in the west whereby they give | a years tuition with board, laundry, lights, fuel, etc , in fact all necessary expenses, iv exchange for a yery reasonable number of subscriptions to their paper.
