The editor of the Review last June mude *n effort to secure the co-operation of the Republican organisation in this county to substitute the Taxpavers' ticket for the former, but they would not listen to such a suggestion, Then the Review assailed the

members of that organization, charging them with being in league with what its editor termed the courthouse ring at Brookvilie. Three or four weeks since the Review predicted the election of the entire Taxpayers' ticket, claiming that 90 percent, of the Republicans and nearly one-half of the Democrats were pledged to support it. The Republicans will be stronger at the next election than ever before, and they will have the support of fair-minded Democrats who believe that a change of administration would he a good thing, inasmuch as there never has been a Republican elected in Franklin county.

WABASH, Ind., Nov. 10.—The dispatch in Wednesday’s Journal from this city, stating that Congressman Steele ran behind his ticket two hundred in this county, was misleading in that the inference might be drawn that he failed to hold his own on the county ticket.

It is but just to say that Major Steele ran up with the county ticket in Wabash county. A REVOLUTION.

HELD UP AND ROBBED GREAT NORTHERN TRAIN STOPPED BY EIGHT BOLD BANDITS, ■ _♦ Who Dynamited the Express Safes, Took. f2l> from tlie Engineer and Fled with Their Booty. ■ -♦ FERGUS FALLS, Minn., Nov. 10.-The Great Northern through train which passed through this city at 7:3) p. m. was held up and robbed about five miles west of here to-night. There were eight robbers in the gang, ail well armed. Tw-o of them evidently boarded the blind baggage in this city. The train was scarcely out of town when these tw-o climbed over the tender, and, presenting revolvers, told Engineer Brace and his fireman to stop at a lonelyspot near the Pelican river bridge. Arriving - at this place, the train was stopped and the engineer and fireman were ordered to leave the cab. The other members of the gang rushed from the woods and boarded the express car. All wore handkerchiefs over their faces. The gang was regularly organized and went by numbers. When the train stopped the conductor and brakeman started forward to find out what the trouble was, but the bandits fired a number of shots and warned them to keep buck. They then compelled the express messenger to leave the car, and while three or four stood guard the others proceeded to blow open the safes. The local safe was destroyed, and it is thought that they succeeded in securing considerable money, but the exact amount cannot be learned. The through safe was drilled and dynamited, four charges being used. The jacket was blown off, but it was found impossible to reach the inner part and get at the cash. They worked over it nearly two hours, holding the train for that length of time, but gave up finally and joining their companions on the outside started south. The two men who stood guard over the engineer compelled him to give up S2O which he had upon his person. The express ear had been somewhat wrecked by- the explosion, but the trainmen managed to get it to Carlisle, where it w-as patched up and the train proceeded on Its westward journey. Conductor Smith sent a trainman back to this city to give the alarm, but nothing has as yet been heard of him. Several posses are out but no trace of the robbers has yet been reported.

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—'The Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers is holding its sixth general meeting. President C. A. Griseom's address contained allusions to tha bearings of the recent war upon the naval and merchant marine of the United States. “It is not too hopeful to predict,” said President Grisoom, “that the war may be the turning point from which this Nation may- commence to regain its once proud position as a ship-building, shipowning and seafaring people, and it is very happy testimony to your skill as naval architects and marine engineers that several orders have already come from foreign nations for warships of the first class, and it is well known that foreign ship builders and capitalists have commenced seriously to examine with Interest the. advantages of this country for ship building.” At the afternoon session Secretary F. T. Bowies read the paper of G. W. Dickie on torpedo boat destroyers for sea service with especial reference to conditions that prevail on the Pacific coast. In it the writer said that he did not believe that the 42<;-ton destroyers now building tor the government could meet the special conditions on the Pacific. The annexation of Hawaii required, he said, a greater radius of action for such a vessel and a different treatment. A sufficiently stanch and sea-going vessel for the Pacific could not be built, he thought, to make thirty knots at) hour and maintain it. This paper was followed by a

general discussion of the torpedo boat destroyer and the torpedo boat. Lieutenant Niblack. on his way to Munila. sent a communication in which he called the Dupont. Porter and Morris the best torpedo boats in the world. Lieutenant Commander Kimball, in charge of the torpedo flotilla during the war. said in a letter that the submarine torpedo boat was the only kind of inexpensive craft that can cope with a big ship. He favored these crafts. Assistant Naval Constructor Richard M. Watts said he believed the Morris to be the ideal torpedo boat. Next he favored the four-hundred ton destroyers built to be seagoing with a speed and battery superior to any torpedo boat and built to act as scouts. Naval Constructor John G. Tawressey. of Philadelphia, said he did not believe in tor-pr-do boats at all. He said the moral effect was good, but the firing effect was of little account. This statement brought some discussion. the result of which was the belief that a successful movement of torpedo boats for tiring purposes requires many of the craft. MASO TO M’KINLEY. Letter from the Cohan “President” to the United Staten President. WASHINGTON. Nov. 10.-A letter from President Maso, of the Cuban provisional government, to President McKinley became accessible to-day. It is dated at Santa Cruz del Sur. Sept. 23, and deals with the problems which now confront the Americans and Cuban people in Cuba. President Maso says that with the evacuation of the Island by the Spaniards “will commence the arduous and difficult task of establishing in Cuba a firm and stable government, which shall be the legitimate expression of the free will of its people, and shall constitute a real guarantee of order, peace and liberty which the Cubans so ardently wish for.” President Maso says that the logic of events Imposed an agreement between the Americans and Cubans as to the ends to be accomplished, and that “the complex labor in which we have been and are engaged has been but in part realized,” and that “the government council as the supreme authority of the revolution has inspired all its acts in the aim of sustaining and aiding the policy of the American government.” President Maso then reviews the actions of the Cuban revolutionary party, and indicatts the steps that are to be taken by the Cuban people to bring to t'ruuion the hopes which have inspired them through years of strife for freedom. He adds: "We will stand by those men who have sacrificed everything for the welfare of their country, and we are ready to answ r er for our conduct. ’ He concedes that the American government should garrison the island in order to insure tranquillity during tr.e ptriod or transition from Spanish to Cuban rule, and that “the natural development of events will necessarily bring about a practical understanding between the American government and the people of Cuoa upon a common basis.” WITHOUT PASSPORTS. American Missionaries Start for Interior of Turkey Under Escort. BOSTON, Nov. 10.—The American Board of Foreign Missions received word to-day that a party of missionaries, some of them returning to their homes in Turkey, others going out for the first time, all having been refused passports by the Turkish government, are just starting for the interior without them, but under the special escort of the representative of the United States legation. The missionaries composing the party are Mrs* John K. Browne, of Cambridgeport, Mass., returning to her husband and home at Harpoot; Mrs. C. F. Gates, of Chicago, whose nusband, Dr. Gates, is president of Euphrates College at Harpoot; Miss Theresa Huntington, of Milton, Mass., and Miss Laura Ellsworth, of Barran, Wis., both going to Harpoot for the first time as teachers in Euphrates College for girls; Mra.

TO EDUCATE CUBANS. Gen. Joseph Wheeler Will Make an Appeal to American Collette*. NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—Gen. Josepli Wheeler is deeply interested in the education of Cuban young men. He believes that if young Cubans will come to this country and le tutored and then return home they will be of great use in developing Cuba and introducing a stable form of government. General Wheeler has commissioned Gilbert K. Harroun, treasurer of Union College, to ask the American colleges if each of them would give free education to two or more Cubans if the right sort of men could be found to secure a college course in this country. Mr. Harroun has written to over three hundred college presidents in the United States, asking them to co-operate and advance General Wheeler's plan. Over one hundred replies are at hand, and with one accord the colleges agree to take two or more young men who can pass the necessary examinations and who can come properly vouched for as to character, and make them beneficiaries to the extent of free tuition. In many cases the colleges agree to aid the young men beyond free tuition. In several instances the colleges, recognizing the difficulties under which the young men of Cuba have labored, have agreed to receive them without insisting upon their passing the examinations. TIN-PLATE COMBINATION. Manufacturer* Reported to Have Effected Consolidation. CHICAGO.

THE FRENCH “SPEAKER” IX PARIS HE IS KNOWN AS THE PRESIDENT OF THE CHAMBER. ♦ He Undertake* to Rule the LeglMlative Stormi, but In Not Always Successful—Prenent Incumbent. Paris Correspondence lndon Mall. The French, who adopted or, rather, adapted their parliamentary system from England, adapted also the “speaker.” anJ called him the president of the chamber. They adapted him only imperfectly, and in their republican zeal they omitted the most picturesque and .at the same time the most elfectlve portion of his attributes—his wig, his knee breeches, his sword, his throne. I remember well the hilarious demonstration of an intelligent foreigner when I gave him a brief description of the appetir&nce of the speaker presiding over the House of Commons. I had never before suspected that there was such a fund of latent humor in the trappings of state and authority which are familiar enough on the English side of the channel. But my Frenchman roared. “Fancy Brisson, fancy Poincare in a wig!” he cried, and forthwith exploded again. “No,” he concluded, “we are too republican for these tricks. They would be laughed out of the chamber the first day.” This was all very well, but any one provided with a card which enables him to make his way to the lobby of that same chamber may behold on any day of the session a curious little ceremony ana one that clashes strangely with austere republican notions. At about 3 o'clock, or earlier, there are symptoms of bustle and preparation in the lobby and adjoining rooms. Drums are heard, and commands are given in a loud military voice. Then a double file of soldiers, some fifty in number, march in, posting themselves between the outer door of the lobby and that which leads to the chamber itself. They form a lane, and then stand at attention with serious and resolute mien, their officer meanwhile passing them under review with the scrutiny of an eagle. Presently the side drums roll again, and a stave of the “Marseillaise” is played; all hats are doffed in the lobby, and we all gather round close to the lane or soldiers, as eagerly as if we had never seen the like before. Then appear two attendants in livery, who march at the head of the little procession, and whose dignified step, and heads inclined forw r ard, strike a fair balance between justifiable pride and natural modesty. Then appears the president of the chamber, in dyess suit, marching with air still more dignified, but equally tinged with native modesty, until near the entrance door for the deputies. Here he stops. He turns solemnly to the right and bows. He turns solemnly to the left and bows. He faces round, and then resumes his procession, disappearing through the portals. The soldiers march away. A pleasant buzz in the lobbies gives way to the previous solemnity, and then we know that the President has well begun another day. TRACES OF MONARCHY.

The French, it is evident, are still struggling amid the bonds of monarchical traditions. They have only half abolished the suits and trappings of state, and they have often retained the more fantastic part of ceremonial. In the chamber itself the president sits on high. One might say, were it not for irreverence, that he is perched aloft above the assembly. The seats of the chamber are disposed so as to form a semi-amphitheater. The tribune of the orator faces this heraicycle, and the chair of the president is above that again. So that the back of the orator is opposite him. while both look towards the assembly. It is then really that the profundity of the “philosophy of clothes,” that Carlyle so much expiated on, becomes evident, and that the hilarity of mv friend is seen to be so very misplaced. The president of the Council is not an imposing figure at any time. He is still less so when he has the elegant pro; ‘ions, the refined appearance, the air of perfect gentleman of the drawing root at distinguish the present holder of t .itle, M. Deschanel. He sits not on a throne, but on a large chair, which looks bleak and scanty and unprotected on the heights. The silhoutte of his slight figure looks terribly Insufficient outline in the glaring position of the president. His gentlemanly gestures and refined features are like the tender offerings of innocence in a lion's den. His immaculate shirt front and the clawhammer coat of fashion are a mockery and a sham. The result is only too evident on a stormy day. The President rocks and bobs on the billows like a cork the while he jangles his Ineffective bell in despairing signals of distress. NOT EFFECTIVE. Compare him for a moment to the speaker, with his famous wig and the prestige of his sword. Half hidden in the obscurity of his throne, he sits like Rhadamanthus, until some occasion draws him forth. He then emerges, authoritatively, backed by the imposing throne and the shadows of the past centuries. His wig multiplies his dignity, and the imperative words, “Order! order!” bring the most unruly to his senses. If not, the terrible alternative, “I must name you,” almost invariably withers opposition. Compared with all this the position of the president of the council is indeed difficult. Deprived of the wig, the throne, the kneebreeches and the tradition, he is as helpless as a ship that goes to battle unarmored on the ground that cuirasses are obsolete. The “Left” howls. M. Deschanel implores. The “Left” roars. M. Deschanel expostulates. The “Left” reverberates, and M. Deschanel holds an unequal contest with the bell as his only weapon. The “Left” behaves like a pandemonium, and M. Deschanel raises his hands towards heaven and cries. ‘What a sorrowful spectacle!” The chamber looks aghast for a moment, hut only for a moment, and the president’s authority is lost amid the chorus of cries, catcalls, interruptions and laughter. Yet M. Deschanel is a most estimable man, and one of those who are, and who deserve to be, the hope of France. He is young, just forty-one, of remarkably good presence, carefully “groomed” and in all points unexceptionable. His enemies even make a reproach of his irreproachable tenue, and call him “pommade,” ami represent him wielding, not a scepter, but a cosmetic stick and brush. His regular features, his carefully trimmed mustache, his carefully arranged hair, his natural gracefulness are matters of offense to the Socialists. His correctness gives them no chink for the arrows of their scorn, and it exasperates them. A “REPUBLICAN NOBLE.” M. Deschanel is another example of the “Republican nobility,” his distinguished father, well known for his philological and other researches, having had to fly from France after the coup and etat of Napoleon 111. At a very early age M. Deschanel, his son, commenced to win scholastic distinction, and in all manner of official prizes he has continued since to reap the reward of a young man, studious and “hien sage.” He is a student of colonial questions, he is a student of belles-lettres, he is deep on financial questions and on all manner of “movements,” and he is a charming lecturer. He is the cynosure of the ladies*— he is yet unmarried—he is the envy of his colleagues, he is a favorite of the President of the republic, and he is counted as a very likely successor to that highest office in the gift of the French nation. Yet there is something not entirely convincing about M. Deschanel. Perhaps the instinct of the “Left” is right. M. Deschanel Is too correct. His successes have been too academical, too official, too orthodox. His

His accomplishments and facilities are top well groomed and "pommade.” He has stufliid many subjects, but he is an authority on none. He has conciliated diverse parties, but he represents nothing; he occupies a high position, but lie has done nothing original. He is a little too much like the model pupil, who holds up his hand, and cries under the admiring eye of the master, “Please, sir. 1 know.” Perhaps it is because the occasion has not yet brought M. Deschanel out. For beneatn the mask of the regular features there is a ioolt of great resolution and real virility, and if the country be in danger I have no doubt M. Deschanel would he the first to change the irreproachable garments for the red pantaloons of a hardy patriotism. Meanwhile for the presidency ot the chamber he lacks weight in the most liberal sense. It is almost impossible to preside in such ail exposed position under thirteen stone at least, and M. Deschanel cannot have more than ten and a half. He lacks the full beard and the well-known austerity of M. Brisson. He will never acquire the portliness,* the bonhomie, the full countenance fringed by the white side whiskers of M. Floquet. But he otters all he has—undoubted honesty, undoubted ability, a prepossessing appearance, a charming manner, a brilliant career aud the white flower of a model existence. Obituary.
