Gen. Butler's delay in publishing bis

the difficulty he experiences in formula

The Two Classes of Issues.
The speech which Mr. Hendricks deliv
ered at Indianapolis a day or two after
hi* nomination, was productive of such
good results that be hat determined to
deliver several more speeches during tbe
campaign. That Mr. Hendricks bit the
nail squarely on the bead, as it were, was
shown by Mr. Chandler’s letter complain
ing that Mr. Hendricks hsd not dealt
with him fairly. Mr. Hendricks,
however, did deal with him fairly
—eo fairly, that when he replied to
Mr. Chandler’s letter, Mr. Chandler bad
nothing more to say. Mr. Hendrick*
thinks that the leading iasues of the cam-
paign should be administrative reform
and personal integrity in public office.
There is no doubt that these iasues will
be presented vigorously and persistently
by the Democrats, and that the Republi
cans will avoid them to as great an ex
tent as they possibly can. In fact, the
Republicans cannot meet them.
What ran they say in favor
of administrative reform? Have
they not had control of the government
for almost a quarter of a century, and
have not their methods of administering
the government grown more objection
able year after year? Is there a Republi
can or a Democrat in the country who
does not know that the standard of offi
cial integrity has been constantly
lowered, and that the hand of tbe
plunderer has found its way into the
Treasury with increasing trequency?
It will never be known, perhaps, how
much was illegally taken from the Treas
ury by means ot the star route frauds,
and the books do not show how many
millions have been stolen in other ways.
Now and then the public gets a glimpse
of what is going on when embezzlements
like that of Bdrnside or frauds like those
in tbe Medical Bureau of the Navy De
partment crop out. The occasional
glimpses obtained of the rottenness only
| show how great the rottenness
•in the administration of the
government is. In an interview last Sat
urday Henry Ward Beecher said: “Ido
not go back on my Republicanism one
lota, but I do want to see a change in the
methods of the party and this everlasting
corruption that is constantly cropping up
put out of the way.” Mr. Beecher voices
the feeling of thousands of Republicans.
He knows that the methods of the Repub
lican party, and tbe everlasting corrup
tion can’t be got rid of if Blaine is made
President. Blaine has always worked on
a low plane in politics, and if he
were elected President he would continue
to work on the same plane. The feeling
that the Republican party must be re
buked for nominating a man like Blaine
is strong throughout the country, and it
will become much stronger if the Demo
crats give the right direction to tbe cam
paign. The Republicans will not dis
cus* the characters of the candidates,
of course, because they have noth
ing to say against Cleveland and
cannot successfully defend Blame.
Tbe best defense that was ever made for
Blaine with respect to the charges in
connection with the Little Rock bonds,
was made by William Walter Phelps just
before the Republican National Conven
tion, and that defense the distinguished
Vermont Senator, Edmunds, rendered
ineffective in a letter of less than a half
dozen line*. No, the Republicans will
not join issue with the Democrats on the
questions of administrative reform and
personal integrity in office if they can
help it. They have nothing to gain by
discussing such questions. Their only
hope of success is in conducting the
campaign on the issues pointed out by
Blaine in his letter of acceptance.
Last Night's Mass Meeting.
_ The meeting at the Theatre last night to
j and the Congressional coHV'fltt'm cr ’rrf*
l district, and to ratify the nominations of
the National Convention, was very large
and enthusiastic. The delegates to the
i State Convention were instructed to sup
-1 port Gov. McDaniel, the present incum
? bent, for Governor, and the Congressional
; delegates were instructed to support
Judge A. Pratt Adams for Congress.
There i* no doubt about Gov. McDaniel’s
nomination, and if the voice of the peop’e
of this county is as potent as it
ought to be, there will be
very little doubt about the nomination
of Judge Adams. There are
several very strong reasons why the Con
gressman from this district should be a
resident of this county. This city has
more interests before Congress every ses
sion than ail the rest of the district. The
Improvement of our river and harbor is a
matter of very great importance.
For a number ot years we have
been trying to get an appropriation
for a post office building. There are mat
ters pertaining to our commerce that re
quire looking after all the time. Other
counties, of course, have their candi
dates, but they have no very strong
reasons why any one of their candidates
should receive the nomination. When the
convention hears the reasons this county
has to offer in favor of its candidate it
would not be at all surprising if it should
yield to it the nomination. The other
counties can have no objection to the
candidate which this county offers. He
is personally known in nearly all parts of
the district, and though a young man his
reputation for ability is not confined
to this city. Indeed, the fact that be is a
young man ought to be in his favor. A
voung man who is at all anxious to sue*
ceed is much more likely to look
carefully alter the interests of his
constituents than an old man
who ha* about ceased to care to exert
himself for additional honors. All the cir
cumstances considered, there does not
seem to be any good reason why the nomi
nation should not be accorded to this
county. Great care ought to be taken to
present its claims properly.
Hazen in Trouble.
Gen. Hazen is a sensitive man, and he
feels keenly the harsh criticisms on his
management of the ISS2 and ISB3 expedi
tions for Greely's relief. He has tried to de
fend himself, but his defense has not been
received with favor. He probably trusted
too much to subordinates. As the matter
-now stands the impression is that he is to
a great extent responsible for the death of
those the Greely party who perished at
Cape Sabine. It seems that Greely"s in
structions respecting relief parties were
very explicit. In his letter of Aug. IT, ISSI,
directed to Gen. HazeD. he desired that the
relief expedition to be sent out in the sum
mer of li>S2 should establish a provision
Repot “at a fermanent point on the east
coast of Grinnell Land (west side of
Smith’s Sound).” He also desired that
the relief expedition to be sent out in the
summer of ISS3 should leave food on the
west side of Smith’s Sound, “between
Cape Sabine and Bach Island,” and that
the expedition should go into winter quar
ters at Littleton Island. These instruc
tions or requests of Greely were not fol-
followed. W hen Greely got to Cape Sabine
he found nothing with which to keep
himself and party from starving. If he
, had landed at Littleton Island he would
have found the same condition of affairs.
Of course Gen. Hazen has excuses to
offer and reasons why Greely’s directions
were neglected, but they were not re
garded as sufficient when a court of in
quiry investigated the causes of the loss
of the Proteus last year, and they are not
regarded as sufficient now. In ordering
Lieut. Garhngton. of the Proteus, to
attempt to reach Lady Franklin Bay. if
the way appeared clear, and to land stores
on his return trip, may have seemed the
right thing to do, but it proved not to be
the right thing, and he must now bear
the blame. His intentions were all right,
bat his judgment was at fault.
And now a change in the uniform of the
enlisted men in the army is going to be
made by the War Department. White
stripes will be added to the trousers, and
gold braid chevrons will lend attractive
ness to tbe coat. This will be quite an
improvement on the old uniform, and
may enconrase the soldiers a little, and
have a tendency to dimmish the number
of desertions.
Cleveland has already begun his letter
of acceptance. The committee probably
will formally notify him of his nomina
tion next Tuesday. Hendricks will go
East this week, so as to save the commit
tee the trouble of visiting Indianapolis,
Opinion} About Blaine's Letter.
The great difference In the opinions re
specting Blaine's letter is very noticeable.
Tbe letter is a very weak production,
many say, *hile others regard it as both
able and adroit. The Republicans are all
satisfied with it, of course, and their or
gans speak of it as a remarkable docu
ment in every way. As we stated when
the letter wss published, its aim is to
draw tbe attention of the country to the
tariff. Mr. Blaine proposes that his party
shall fight the campaign with the tariff as
the leading issue. He may not wholly
succeed, because the Democrats will not
allow themselves to be drawn wholly
away from the administrative reform
issue, but be will succeed to a certain ex
tent. If the Republicans press the tariff
to the front tbe Democrats will have to
meet them. The Democrats will have no
difficulty in meeting them if the protec
tion taction do not attempt to force the
party to take a stand in favor ot protec
tion. If they do make such an attempt
the party is certain to suffer very
serious damage. Tbe party cannot
figure as tbe friend of the protective sys
tem while its record is in favor of reve
nue reform. Blame’s high tariff argu
ments could easily be answered from a
revenue tariff standpoint, but it would be
difficult to answer them if an attempt
were made to uphold both the protective
principle and the tariff for revenue ex
clusively principle. In dealing with tbe
people absolute {rankness is necessary to
success. The unthinking mob may be in
fluenced by simple assertion and the hur
rah of the campaign, but sober, think
ing people are more likely to be influ
enced by that which appeals to their
judgments. The best opinion is that
Blaine's letter is admirably calculated to
accomplish the purpose which Blaine had
in view. It may lack dash and brilliancy,
but it is clear that he felt that he had
more serious business on hand than main
taining his reputation for qualities which
secured for him the title of the plumed
knight. It is the letter of a demagogue,
because its conclusions are knowingly
drawn from false premises, but it will not
be an easy matter to destroy its effect, be
cause of the difficulty of getting its weak
point* before the public in a way that will
attract general attention. The letter was
doubtless disappointing to many, but
there is less disposition to pooh-pooh it
now than there was the day it was pub
lished.
Georgia Wonders.
Georgia is fast acquiring a reputation as
the home of girls who possess a “peculiar
torce.” Lulu Hurst, who amused and
mystified New York for two weeks or
more, is now in Boston, where she will
prove, probably, as great an attraction as
she did in the first named city. Another
Georgia girl, Mattie Lee Price, is giving
exhibitions of the “peculiar foice” at
Wallack’s Theatre, New York, and there
is every reason to think that she will
meet with as much appreciation as Lulu
Hurst did. She weighs only ninety-five
pounds, and if she performs feats like
those of Lulu Hurst she will do much to
wards destroying the impression that the
“peculiar force” is nothing more than
well directed and skillfully used muscular
power. There is still another wonder in
the field. A ladv named Coleman from
Atlanta i* now said to be in Wash
ington giving private exhibitions
of her peculiar power. Reports credit her
with doing more wonderful things than is
done by either Lulu Hurst or Mattie
Price. It is said that she can. by placing
the end of a billiard cue on a heavy table
and holding the other end of it, raise the
table clear of the floor. If she can do
anything as marvelous as that the
chances are that she will outshine either
of the other wonders. When the three
woiiib rs get to work they ought to adver
not be assumed, however," tfiaT TiesF£fl
wonders are confined to girls with a
“peculiar force.”
The Memphis Avalanche makes this
very appropriate drive at New Orleans:
“The celerity with which the New Orleans

same authorities destroyed the National
Board of Health because that body de
sired to do just that very thing with ships
from yellow fever ports.

the matter of a “frugal mind,” Memminger
had a superior in a ma* who hired n#groes to
gather drift-wood in the Colorado river after
the war, and pile it up in his yard. Thev
boarded themselves, and he paid them half of
all the drift-wood thev collected, which drift
wood, of course, was just as much their own
as it was his. The deluded darkeys catted this

Then fling your petty cares away,

And take your family—take a day—

Each of the above contains one 5 and 3 ones,

as fate will predominate, and as there is but
one A in Cleveland and one in Thomas, the
middle letter of Hendricks' name undoubt

In Grover and Thomas are six letters each.
And in Cleveland and Hendricks are nine.
Which suggest that the Muses a lesson would

When these figures we rightly combine.

This year it is six plus nine.

Which are found in the uppermost line.

LCLt HURSTS MANY DRESSES.
The Close of Her Exhibition* tn New
York and a Biff Advertisement.
Two thousand dollars worth of dresses,
say# the New York Times of July 20,
were made for Lulu Hurst before she
began to show her “natural force” at
Wailack's Theatre. She has worn a
different dress every night. She will be
seen no more at Wailack's. She goes to
Boston, and New Yorkers, unless they
go to the Hub, cannot see the com
pletion of her display of dresses. She was
attired In snowy white last night,
when she made her final appearance. Her
Georgia chuckle was unimpaired, and
Paul Atkinson, who dees the talking for
her. smiled as mechanically as ever. The
audience was of good size, and the man
at the piano did not play any worse than
usual. An old man, who looked as wise
as an owl, and from whose face two long
streaks of iron-gray beard extended and
met at a ragged point half a yard below
tbe chin, gripped 'he cane. Lulu, by a
judicious exercise of her strength, nearly
jerked him onto his head. The crowd
cried. “Speech,” and be said:
“I have made twenty balloon ascen
sions. and have practiced mesmerism
for thirty years. I've got will as well as
physical" power. This young lady pos
sesses some remarkable power.”
A young man took hold of the cane as
though it were glass and simpered at
Lulu. “Now. Adolphus,” said a voiee,
“tbe eyes of the country are on you.”
“Give him a fair show,” said another
person. The young man was so bewild
ered that he could scarcely stand alone.
The old man with the ragged beard next
seized the billiard cue, and the crowd
howled with delight. “What's he going
to do?" came from the audience.
“Keep from dancing,” said Paul. Theu,
unfler Lulu's dexterous movements, tbe
old man began to jump around. When he
hail done he did not wait to be asked to
speak, but advanced to the footligbt. “1
came from London three days ago. I
never saw the young lady until this after
noon. Three weeks ago I saw in London
an account of this wonderful young girl,
and I came to see her* I want toTalk an
hour.”
The crowd set up a yell of expostula
tion. The old man. nothing daunted, be
gan to talk about spiritualism, but some
one cried out, “He’s a dynamiter,” and he
was conducted away by a stalwart man.
The would-be orator said his name was
Dr. Wells.
A strapping big fellow came on tbe
stage and the crowd applauded. He
threw two kisses to the audience and
kicked out one lee playfully behind. The
crowd thought it was going to have some
fun with him, but Lulu could do nothing
with him. He stepped up to the footlights
and said: ”It’* nothing but physical
strength. There is nothing supernatural
about it. She As simply a very strong
girl.”
Father Hurst led himself to the front by
his brown beard, and then, seizing his
coat tail with one hand and getting a grip
on the air with the other, said: “We don’t
claim it to be supernatural; it is natural
force.”
‘•Who are you?” yelled half a dozen,
although Father Hurst bad been intro
duced. A man who had been indulging
and who was called “weary,” came up,
and. taking hold of a chair, smiled dream
ily on Lulu. “His eyes are set,’’ exclaimed
a voice.
“Keep your glare on him, Lulu,” said
another.
“He’s a married man, Lulu,” said a
third, as the chair danced around his
shirt front. “Don’t muss his cravat.”
“Speech,” yelled everybody, as the man
started to go.
“The gentleman,” said Paul, “will de
fer bis remarks on account of—”
“Brou-kittis,” yelled an auditor amid a
roar.
Madeline Price, who is 14 years old,
weighs 90 pounds, and is quite pretty, did
about the same thing that Lulu Hurst
does, in the Bijou Opera House yesterday
afternoon. She is from Georgia and is to
be exhibited. There is another wonder
coming from Georgia, and the supply is
expected to be big enough from that one
State to afford each of the Bowery muse
ums one.
IPECAC IN MAH ONE'S WHISKY.
Its Fearful Effect Upon a Card Party in
the Virginia Senator's Boom.
Senator Mahone, savs a Washington
unsafe!* h
has mysteriously disappeared from his
rooms at his hotel. A week or so ago he
directed his servant to keep a sharp look
out and try and discover the reason for the
rapid consumption of his liquor. The
servant was successful. A bell boy was
caught in the act of helping himself to
some of the Senator’s best sour mash. Since
then Mr. Mahone’s servants have been
particularly vigilant. How vigilant is
shown in the fohow ng incident which
took place a few evenings ago:
A card party gathered in the Senator’s
rooms. About 12 o’clock a gentleman
suggested that a little whisky would not
be "out of order. It would serve to settle
the salad and sandwiches they had par
taken of. A messenger was sent to the
bar, but he brought back the startling in
formation that the bar was closed. The
Virginia statesman then stated that he
had some whisky up stairs and would go
after it. He soon returned with a bottle
of “Overholtz, distilled in 1860.” The pro
duction of the “old rye” interrupted the
game instanter, and four of the distin
guished party got up, helped themselves
and touched their glasses, each of which
was supplied with the regulation quantitv
known as a “snorter,” and drank to the
health and happiness of all present.
They were hardly warm in their seats
again when they'suddenly stared at each
other with a painful, inquisitive look, as
if each was w aiting for the other to speak.
A sickly pallor spread over their features,
and with simultaneous expedition they
rose and rushed to the corner of the room,
where their heads bumped together over
the window-sill. Each was afflicted with
deathly illness*for five minutes, accom
panied by writhing, groans and contor
tions of the victims.
“What is tbe matter with the whisky ?”
was tbe first exclamation.
“It has made us fearful sick.”
Senator Mahone (who, by the way,
never drinks spirituous liquors, always
confining his libations to beer) looked
dumbfounded at the gyrations of his
friends. The whisky was “ehen-y, old
stock,” sent him by "a valued friend in
Pennsylvania. He’immediately had his
servant, John, who has charge of the Sen
ator’s apartments, hnnted up. As he en
tered the room the Senator remarked:
“John, what in the name of great Caesar
is the matter wjth my whisky ? I brought
a bottle from my room, and these gentle
men, after taking a drink of it, were sud
denly taken violently sick.”
“Yo 5 whisky made’em sick?” uttered
John, apparently not fully comprehend
ing the situation.
“Make us sick? I should say so. And
this room resembles a ward in a cholera
Hospital,” remarked one of the victims.
Observing a private mark on the label
his eyes enlarged and protruded like the
moon passing from behind a dark cloud
as be exclaimed:
“’Fo’ God! Massa Mahone, dat am de
bottle of liquor I put dem ibegags in to
sicken de nigger what had been toten off
de whisky from yo’ room.”
The Senator has barely escaped several
challenges in consequence of the faithful
ness of his servant.
Hew He Caught the
A well known New York earpSAealer,
says the Carpet Trade Eetieie, went down
the bay fishing the other day, but luck
was bad, and when evening arrived his
basket was still entirely empty. To make
the thing more aggravating a withered
old chap whose sailboat was close by had
been hauling up fish after fish apparently
with the greatest ease. Our friend did
not like to go home with nothing at all to
show for his day’s sport (?), and yet to
purchase from the luckier angler a
basketful of fish and palm them off
as his own catch was an expedi
ent not consistent with the high stand
ard of morality prevailing in the carpet
trade. But. after some cogitation, a way
was found for getting outof this difficulty.
Approaching within a few feet of the old
fisherman the carpet man made a bargain
with him for a basketful, but with the
understanding that each fish bought
must be thrown to him and be would en
deavor to catch it. As he explained, his
conscience would not permit him to take
home and exhibit fish he had not caught.
Be managed, however, to catch every
one, and went home to enjoy a well
deserted ovation from an admiring house
hold.
Sure Test of Their Truth.

Little Dick—How can you tell true sto
ries from fairy stories?
Little Nell—Why, that’s easy. Fair*
stories always begin “Once upon a time.”
LitUe Dick—Yes, but some true stories
begin that way. I’ve got a bo*k of Bible
stories that do.
Little Nell—Oh, now I know. It ain’t
the beginning but the end that you must
go by.
Little Dick—How do you know it isn’t
true by looking at the end ?
Little Nell—Because in fairy stories the
people who get married always “live hap
