The sad event was quite unexpected as Miss Blau had been in ttecdance at the city schools until two weeks betore her deaths and prior that time it was known only by.

It is certainly true that a city's growth depends' greatly upon the reports sent abroad aS to her prosperity, and there is no other agent that can $3 as much toward making a place widely' favora: bly known as. a good local paper well patronized. Grave fears are entertained regarding the health of Veto Cleveland. Should be die, Senator Ingalls will succeed him as president. Smoky Valley News.J The News is slightly in error ia publishing the above as by a bill passed in 1886 the secretary of state would become president should the death of Ms.

Cleveland occur. It is very difficult though to account for even this small mistake of the News, unless the "editor was absent, and knew nothing of the publication of the article." A law is now in effact creating a grand jury in every organized county. Its provisions are that the jury shall attend at tvo regular terms of the district court, or it two bundled tax-payers piay for ths summoning of the jury at any term of court, and present their petition twelve days before the time for the convening of such court, the grand jury shall be summoned. The grand jury is to consist of fifteen jurors, and in counties of less than inhabitants, the jurors will be required to attend only the first regular term of courtj unless petitioned by two hundred tax-payers as before stated. A special from Topeka "to the Abilene Gazette of yesterday morning says The executive council to-day elected R.

Greene, editor of the Cedarville, Chautauqua County Star, member of the state board of railroad commissioners, to succeed L. L. Turner. The fight for this office has been a big one, lasting for two days past, during which time the executive council have been balloting. The final ballot stood four for Greene and two for A.

W. Smith. The four members of the council who voted for Greene are: Attorney-General Brad ford, Treasurer Hamilton, Auditor McCar thy, and Secretary of State E. Allen. Governor Martin and Superintendent of Public Instruction Lawhead voted for Smith.

Says the Garden Citv Herald The dodu- lation of Kansas is composed of the choicest selections from all the states. It was set tled by the ene rgy, enterprise and courage of ail sections, and is more cosmopolitan in its character than any other sovereignty in the federal Union. It is an aaaresration of picked specimens of the highest type of manhood and womanhood, and comprises a citizenship, the physical, intellectual and moral development of which finds no parallel on the face of the globe. It is governed by the advance thought and the moral forces that are at work in every community, and the morality, justice and loyalty of its people nave round expression in the enactment of laws which more fully gurantee the enjoyment of natural and inherent rights than are vochsafed to any other people, state, nationality or principality on earth. Woman is recognized and accredited as the equal of man, and her rights more nearlv secured to her than in any other political division in the national compact.

It is truly the "land of the ijeal," where fidelity to principle, loyalty the government "and cheerful obedience to its laws, command a higher and more universal respect than ancestral dignity or the regal magnificence of wealth. The St. Louis Globe-Democrat rublishes a very notable editorial article regarding the next Presidential campaign, apropos of the recent interview with Senator Edmnnds. The Globe-Democrat agrees with Mr. Edmunds in the opinion that the Democrats will renominate Mr.

Cleaveland. It holds that the few democratic newspapers, like the New York and Louisville Courier Journal, whicb favor some other candidate, "voice the views of a mere handful of malcontents, whosp wishes would not have the influence in directing the party choice, and whose opposition would not be a feather-weight in a canvass against the party candidate." It warns the foolish republicans "who may find a mild variety of amusement in conjuring up in their minds such opposition to the President ia his own party as could defeat him for re nomination," that they are the victims of a delusion, and says that "wise republicans will realize now that Cleveland will be tha standard-bearer of tlie democratic party a year hence, and be governed accordingly." The question for republicans, therefore, is whether they can defeat Cleveland in 1888. This is the Globe-Democrat's answer "We behevd they can. But they certainly can not do so if they again confront him with the candidate which they put in the field in 1884." Such a confession woald be significant in any republican paper, but it derives added force in this case from the two facts that Mr. Blaine's friends pronounce him peculiarly strong in the West, and that the St.

Louis Globe-Democrat is perhaps tha best representative of western republicanism. The Nation. Besides a large XXo hIsq oa-rrriess ls-3adis of UGHT SINGLE OR DOUBLE HARNESS!
