Republican Caucus To-Night.
The Republican caucus for the nomi-
nation of Representatives and Justices,
is to meet to-night at Grand Army Hall
at 8 o'clock.
Every Republican elector of the First
and Third Voting Districts should be
there. A nomination is equivalent to
an electionland the nominee for Repre-
sentative, especially, should be such as
to this year, represent most ably and
worthily the good old town of Norwalk.
All other aspirants can afl'ord to wait

insult to Carlisle.
News a surprising: experience for
Mi; Carlisle to be treated with disre-
spect anywhere or in: anyone in Ken-
tucky, but the incidmt at Covington
will certainly fail to injure him in pub-
lic esteem. Though reports have evi-
dently exaggerated the extent of the
disorder, it is always a. compliment to
a public man to be disliked by ruflians,
and Mr. Carlisle has never modified his
opinions to please the kind of people
who he wl at a speaker and throw eggs.
Kentuckyiistly honors John G. Car-
lisle. and this incident will serve only
to make more plain that he stands now,
as he has long stood, for public honor
and security against the wild forces of
ignorance, disorder and violence.

The President and Congress.
flinch allowance is to be made for the
claims of party success which come
from managers of national campaigns.
Asa rule, they only see and hear one
side of the battle, and one of the most
important factors in giving success to a
political cause is to impress on voters
the certainty that it is going to win.
The public, therefore, always receive
with liberal allowance the claims made
by those who are in responsible charge
of national campaigns.
Two of the great newspapers of this
country have made a systematic and
very thorough efiort to fascertain‘lthe
political tide of the present contest.
The Chicago Record, the most widely
_ read newspaper in that city, and one
whose reputation for integrity and ac.
curacy of statement «is second to none
inthe country, is now engaged in a
postal canvass in Chicago city and a
ten per cent.canvass of each precinct of
the group of contested States west and
north ofIllinois. That this canvass has
tier-2 made with absolute fidelity is not
questioned, and while it cannot be re-
ceived as presenting a strictly accurate
report of the poll to be made in Novem-
ber, it very clcirly exhibits the drift of
political sentiment. All reports
point unmistakably to the success. {f
McKinley, not only in Chicago, but in
the, Stttfi of Illinois,_and also in the
contested States surrounding Illinois.
The New York Herald has also made
a well-organized and honestly prose-
cuted canvas of the various States in
the national contest, not only as to
President, but also giving a careful es-
timate of the next Congress. The Her;
aid canvas gives to McKinley as certain
' 249electoral votes, being 24 more than
a majority, and to Bryan 134, with 65
electoral votes classed as doubtful, 42
of which are given as likely to be favor-
able to McKinley and 23 to Bryan.
This-statement is made soley'in the in-
its
.T‘ as E van INGG A ZET-T E
terest of a reliable presentation of the
present condition of the national strug-
gle, and is not intended to help or
hinder any political party. In the
‘ Herald’s report New York is presented
by counties, giving McKinley a ma-
jority in every county of the State with
.the single exception of Schoharie,
where 400‘ majority is conceded to
Bryan, and the aggregate majority for
McKinley is 213,400.
The Herald’s canvass has taken in
the contest for Congress in all the 'de-
batable States and districts. It foots
up the next House as likely to contain
224 Republicans, '12? Democrats and 6
Populists, and it classes these on the
money question as 215 for sound money
and 142 for free silver.
In this estimate it gives 31 Repub‘
lican Congressmen and 3 Democrats in
theState of New York, and in Penn-
sylvania it gives the Republicans 24
and the Democrats'G. If the Herald
estimates the Democratic strength in
the next Congress as liberally through.
out the difl‘srent States, as it does in
Pennsylvania. it gives them, saysthe
Democratic Philadelphia Times, the
utmost that they can possibly obtain.
Of the 6 Congressmen conceded to the
Democrats in Pennsylvania, 4 of them
are certainly doubtful and 3 of them
are likely to be carried by the Repub-
licans, concedes the Times. Consider-
ing that all the dispassionate and ad-
mittedly honest and impartial efl'orts
made to ascertain the political tide of
the country unite in giving McKinley
the election by a large majority, it
certainlyjustifies the conclusion that
the national contest is already settled,
and that it is'only a question of Mo-
Kinley’s majority in the popular and
Electoral vote.

The little daughter of Mr. Fred VVebber
Holland, Mass, had a very bad cold and
cough which he had not.been able to cure
with anything. I gave him a 20 cent bottle
of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, says “7.1).
Holden, merchant and postmaster athest
Brimfield, and the next, time I saw him he
said it worked like a. charm. .~ This remedy
is intended especially for acute throat and
lung diseases such as. colds, croup and
whooping cough, and it is famous for its
cures. There is no danger in g1vmg_1t to
children for it contains nothing injurious.
