We have advices from different parts of the District that the Senatorial Committee will be asked to put a third man on the ticket, and it will be a call that the Com­ mittee cannot afford to ignore. For six years the Republicans have been cheated Ottt of their just rights, and a Republican United States Senator put in jeopardy by rank cowardice. No one can offer c>ne legitimate reason why the third man fljbould not be put up. Then why is it imposed? . 'yjn asking that & third man be put up­ on the ticket, we are not opp&shig those already nominated. We are simply ask­ ing that the Republicans of the Eighth District be allowed to use the j>ower that they have in their hands, and send three t|ood Republicans to represent this Dis­ trict in the Lower House of our State Legislature. We believe the time has come when the Republican voters will de­ mand it and will not submit to dictation longer. We expect before our next issue that some decisive move will be made to the end of settling the question that beads this article. We believe that no man or set of men have a right to dictate to the voters in this matter. It is a vital question that may effect the entire Re­ publican party of the State. And right here will come the question, vhu shall be the third man on the tick «t? We say, any good, sound, able Re­ publican. But the Pi-.aindkai.ek would Mggest the name of Hon. Charles H. Thyox, of Hebron. He has represented this District one term in the Legislature •biy and well, and would have been re- ^ fleeted had not the Senatorship inter- |H veiled and took it from the county. He t'ti eminently a man of the people and gpl; I ^tould fill the position now, as heretofore, | #ith credit to himself and the people be |L represented. If the voice of the people is If; '• leard and three candidates are brought / before the voters, as we confidently pre- V"- diet there will be, we trust Mr. Tryon's fp I " name will receive due consideration, al- R», , Sv though these suggestions are made with- iSffihis knowledge or consent, but we are a'i • Jiure his Republicanism would not allow %> - / him to shrink from a duty thus imposed npon him. 00 ***** fgf The Democratic Senatorial Conven- /tSon for this district was held at Wood- *> stock Wednesday last and was called to by W. A. Melody, of Lake, who Was chosen chairman. Chas. Lemmers and Fred Renich were made secretaries . And nominations for representative were inadeas follows: John C. Donnelly, of McHenrv, Geo. W. Murch, of Boone, and Geo. Wait, of Lake. An informal ballot was taken with the following result: Donnelly 21, Wait 18, Murch 6. On the formal ballot Murch received 24 votes • fend Donnelly 21, and Murch was de- 1 . dared the nominee. After adjournment Another convention was called and Don- of Woodstock, put m nomination. IW* A special dispatch from Rockford to the Inter Ocenn, under date of June 14th, says: "Last night Rockford was visited by the most terrific rain storm experienced in this section since 1858, when there was not .so much property here to damage as there is now. It is estimated that the damage done by the storm was nearly f .300,000, principally due to the sudden and unprecedented rise of Kent's Creek and Keith's Creek, two small streams which empty into Rock River within theci fcy limits. Both streams flow directly through the city and their banks are covered with factories,railroad sidetracks and residences. Their rise last night was terrible sudden, both rising from ten to twenty feet withiu a single hour. Kent's Creek, which is ordinarily less than twenty f<*;t wide in the widest place, suddenly overflowed, so that in places it was over a thousand feet in breadth. The sky was overcast and gloomy all day yesterday and at about 8 o'clock it began to rain and thunder, and within an hour thestorm was terrific. The rain poured down in sheets and the lightning flashed almost continuously^ The waters in ihe creeks rope so suddenly that many people were first,' informed of their danger by feeling the water rising over their beds. All at once there was an alarm and the entire police depart­ ment, fire department, and company of citizens under the leadership of Mayor Sherrat, began the work of rescue. It was dark and difficult work, but it was well done that so far «« hns been learned not a life was lost. Hundreds of houses were entirely surmounted by water, and the inmates had to lie rescued by boats, Many houses were entirely submerged and in many more the water reached the second stories. Some were floated off their foundations and hundreds of people lost from twenty-five to a thousand dollars by damage to their household goods." , Clerk of the Supreme Court. Hon. H. C. Whittemore, of Sycamore, is a candidate for the office of Clerk of the Supreme Court for the Northern Grand Division of Illinois, and is receiv­ ing many very friendly expressions from the various parts of the district. Capt, Whittemore was deputy county clerk when he enlisted, aud has also served as deputy circuit clerk. He is eminently well qualified for the office, has a splen­ did soldier record, and is an honest and honorable gentleman in every rcsj>ect. If the State treasurership is given to Chicago, the clerkship should in fairness be given to the country, and tbe country will be nearly unanimous in asking that Mr. Whittemore be chosen. If they are successful it will be particularly gratify- ing, not only to the Republicans of Syca­ more, but to those of the 5th District as well.--Sycamore Republican. 1I!§§S1!IS! < * , ^ M ' , , 1 V.H } , , ** , i * carry an extra large stock of men's fine and medium priced Suits.

Not even a rough < ,, , exti mate of population must be given out, and persoual information would be par ticular reprehensible. This circular should . remove all intelligent objection to answer- Sv' • ing any question on the schedules. IfiVThelndiansinMontana are getting very uneasy and are spoiling for some deviltry.

Palmer for United States Senator^ also nominated the following State tick* | et: State Treasurer, Judge E. S. Wilson, of Olney; Snj>erintendent of Public In­ struction, Henry Raab; Trustees of the State University, It. P. Morgan of Living­ ston county, J. H. Bryant, of Bureau and R. C. Kinsbrough, of Vermillion. I®" The Governor has issued calls for special elections to be held July 15 in the following Senatorial districts, to fill va­ cancies in the House of. Representatives of the General Assembly: Thirty-fifth, to succeed A. B. McDowell, resigned; Thirty-sixth, to succeed A. C. Matthews, resigned, and John J. Teefey, deceased; Forty-sixth, to succeed Charles M. Lyon, resigned. Now the question naturally arises why not also in the Eighth District, to succeed K. M. Haines, deceased? l8T"The call for a special session of the Illinois General Assmbly was issued by Governor Fifer Friday last. The Legisla­ ture is to meet July 23, and must confine itself to the one subject for which the session is called. The Governor was dis­ posed at first to give a chance to amend the compulsory education act, but wiser counsels prevailed. The "one thingneed- ful" should be done without being mixed up in any way with any other subject. Nobody in the county carries a finer stock of Boots and Shoes than we.

Story. h • H&latead on the African Explorer In writing of Stanley and his elephant gun in The Cosmopolitan, Mr. Halstead shows that he has settled down and fuljy warmed up to his new work on the east­ ern coast, and that he is training his own elephant gun, in first class trim, on men and things. Here is a characteristic passage: In the midst of the extraordinary hon­ ors heaped on Stanley Afriganus, and the universal celebration of his hardihood and his heroism, it should be remembered that he is something more than a man of the highest courage and the boldest ability--that he is of a missionary spirit and has a solemn sense of the sacred gravity of his mission. Ht* uses the ele- §hant gun on the savages who howl for is blood on the borders 6f the strange rivers of the dark land, and he order* criminals to execution withthecommand.
