fnr about BO years Xcbahr Pasha has bean a prisoner in the hatuU of the Ejgyptlnna or Britleb, part of the tine it Cairo and for son..- yeara at Gibraltar. Ii" was once the DBOal powerful native in the Kgyptiun Soudan and last month he wai permitted to return to Lis ..id home. The Britlah commander at Khartoum received the aged man with much honor and the re cption given at the palace was largely attended. Many years ago Zehahr was a wealthy slave dealer and trailer. He had immense slave depot, in the prov

ince ol Bahr-el- ifcuzal, and maintained

large bands of armed men who WCUl on his slave-catching raids, finnllj Zebabr took it Into bis bend to help Is.., ail Pasha, the I'.gyptian governo-

uf Khartoum, to conquer the htrgC eountriea of Darfonr trad Dar Fertitj and it was with the powerf id a--i.-t-ancc of this slave dealer that Egypt added these territories to her pos.-cs-Stoa in the Soudan. To recompense 2ehabr for his valuable aid-Egypt made him mudir of ti t bekka provlama, with the rank of bey. Bttd later he waa promoted to a paibnahip. So .ebahr went down the Nile to Cairo to be invested with fill new title, leaving- the government of ids province in the hands of ids son. Suleiman. 'This young man. intoxicated by the power be now wielded and Inceneef by orders from Khartoum to c ns( .-aiding1 for slaves, allied himself wrdi the dethroned sultan of Dnrfour and attacked! the Kgyptian poata, ticssi Pnsha enptur däuieimao utter short eaiaBavtiffn and OUt him to.i. ath.

Gordon Went IC Khartoum Oh !iif futile and tragical mission to allay. If possible th riling w ave ot Mahdis.n. Jie laked that Xcbahr b permitted to go With him on account of the wonderful influence he possessed, out the people of the Soudan. But Mr. Madstone would not trust the old slave dealer ami1 refused to let him go.

Sixteen years have passed since G ladet one decided that Kebahr must remain in ptisan. 'The old man is in favor with the proaon! government of Greet Britair, und s. has been permitted to go home. In hll speech at the reception at Khartoum, . bahr, according to the dispatch to the .London Tlmen, nlogiaed the preaent goeern-

nent and paid a tribute to Kngland. The same dispatch sny: "Though a very old man. ebahr can itlNdogCOd lervbee, and tie great influence that he h;i. over the coii.itry between P.erher and Khartoum will be on the side of the government, of eoutie there is not the slightest fear that the elave trade wilTreceive any laapetni from his arrival."

In thus turning over the control of the paper money to the bankers tha republicans have found it necessary to rivet upon the nation a national debt, which arc nrere In a fair way to dianhai A hui'e sum ol money is to bo

One of the vital issues of this campaign win be the menej leane, The republican party, ufter shrieking for years about the dangers of an imaginary "" ) cent" dollar made of silver, hnn benevolently given the national banks a "r ag'' dollar which costs nothing, and pas them two per cent, interest yearly on every dollar of the hundred. Of million, that they may lend them to the people at from si to ten hit o ut. interest. This is a big thing fir the bank- In order to ac-

oomplish this, as Willis. I Abbott saya in tin article in the Chicago TimeaHerald. I be republican party haa abandoned the time-honored principle which lias animated all administrations of the I'nited States namely, that the national debt Is a menace to national prosperity, and should bo done away with as rapidly aa revenues will permit. We have com' now 0 the Ktlglish id. -:v that a national riebt is a na
