who uominateJ Bryan, evoked some of
the genuine stuff. His speech Is a better
one than that delivered by (Jarlield in
placing Sherman's name before the con
vention, which resulted in his own nonv
illation for the presidency. In fact, Old
ham's effort ranks alone with that of
Colonel Ingersol's famous "armed war
rior, plumed Knight" speech at Cincinati
in nominating Blaine. Speaking of the
condition of the democratic party four

LOCAL "Boxers" have apparently
given up all hope of keeping out the "for
eigners, " have become discouraged and
.ire about to migrate to some seition that
offers no attraction to any other human
being.
TllliY have been a long lime coming,
but those ten street lamps, which will be
lighted tonight for the first time, will do
good service ne.xt fall and winter when
the nights will be dark and damp and the
town thronged uilli all kinds ol people.
Yl:STI:KI)AV morning the New York
World sprung this sensation. "A plot
to assasiuate ('resident McKiuley lias
been frustrated. It was concocted by a
group of Spanish and Cuban conspirators
who had headquarters-, in New York.
One of Ihe plotters wrakened and sent a
warning leltei to the members ot the re
publican national committee. Detectives
.ire now guarding the president."
Till' repott that thr (ieruian minister to
China had been murdered is probably
true. In addressing the lirst naval divis
ion prior to its departure tor China Mon
day, Emperor William said: "Yours is
the lust division ot armored ships which
I send abroad. Remember, you will have
to light a cunning foe, piovided with mod
ern weapons, to avenge the (ierm.iii blood
which has Mowed, hut spate the women
and children. I shall not rest until China
Is Mihdiu-d and all the bloody deeds are
avenged. You will tight togtther with
the troops ol various nationalities. See
that you in lint.iln good comradeship with
them."
A I'klss dispatih Iroin San Iranclsco,
dated yesterday, says that the steamer St.
Paul had just arrived Iroin St. Michels,
Alaska, with the news tli.ii martial law
had been proclaimed at Cape Nome, The
necessity lor m.uti.il law arose out ol the
lumping ot mining Jaims and other ads
ol lawlessness. Ihe St. 1'itil also re
ports a gteat many cases ot smallpox and
typhoid lever al (-ape Nome. Among
Ihe passengers limn Cape Nome their
wne somr who returned disappointed.
These tepnit about jo.ooo men thrie,
inaov ol whom air unable to Hud employ
ment. I bey sav many will return by the
nest steamer.
Rl I'Oins Iroin the hills continue to be
ot thr most encouraging nature. There
air mote proplr out prospecting this sea
son than theie has been dining the past
ten years and what is better still, many
ot them air e.perlenced prospectois, ap
parently a scarce article in these parts
during past yrais. (iood liuds arr

retreat, and save the party from destruc
tion, it not from defeat. While discord,
with her (laming torch, confused the coun
sels there Iroin out the Sunset Realm a
champion came and bade defiance to the
oncoming host. With the strength of
youth, the wisdom ot age, with knightly
meiu and matchless speech, he towered
above his peers and all who saw him thru
with one accord did hail him 'Chief and
gave our party's banner to his hand.
Slowly despair gave way to hope; confi
dence took the place where timorous fear
had been, the broken and shattered col
umns tormed again, and behind his ensign
came s. million live hundred thousand
valaint men to that unequal light. And
the story ot how well he fought and
how leatlessly he fell, and how dear
the enemy's victory was bought has all
gone out into history now. Hack trom
his 'First Battle' he came, a haftied but
uucoiiciuered hern ot the Bights of Man.
Conscious ol the rectitude ot his purpose,
and cheered by the bellel 'that no Issue Is
ever settled until it is settled right,' he
cheerfully acquiesced in Ihe result of that
campaign, and girded his loins tor the
nr.xl great contest between the Dollar and I
thr Man." i
Thr nomination of Strvrnson is dltfi-,
cult to account for, on any other ground
than that his name means opposition to
Clrvrlaudism, which all good democrats
despise. '
