A Southern Educational Center.
Columbia IS. ca News.

Do the people of the state know that
northern educators are looking to Colum-
bia as the educational center of the south {?
We are assured that this is the fact and
the interest the people of Columbia have
taken in their schools encourages the
thought.
The fact that there are twenty appli-
cants from other states for pay cadetship
in the military academy in Charleston
shows what hold our educational institu-
tions have on the southern mind. We
would be glad to have twenty or more
northern boys at our university.
We think it is about time for northern
boys to be seeking southern colleges
There is many a northern youth of deli
cate health who would find it of the great
est advantage to finish his education in
oul climate.

THE LABOR QUESTION.

There is most persistent effort being
made by professional agitators who
sponge a living off laboring men through
their organizations, to convince them
that the Republican party is not their
friend. but is hostile to their interests.
The changes have been rung on this so
long and so diligently, it has been so
long allowed to go unanswered, that it is
little wonder thousands of honest and
sincere workingmen have come to be-
lIeve it, Indeed, it is greater wonder
that more of them have not been deluded
by it, so artfully and persistently has it
been pressed upon them.
Now, we must emphatically deny the
whole charge and everything included in
it. 1T is just as absurd and just as false
as it would have been to have gone to the
negroes of the South before the war and
told them that the republican party was
their enemy and in some way responsible
for their being in slavery. 1t is part in
deed, almost the whole-of the history of
the republican party, that it was organic
ed to contend for, aud has always CON
tended for justice, and especially for
the rights and blessings of free
labor. 1t is impossible that the same
party that commended so nobly for the
rights of the slaves of another race,
should not feel the deepest sympathy
with the wrongs and suFerings, and the
deepest anxiety for the welfare and adj
vancement of the poor and struggling of
its own race. On the face of it, this
charge is absurdly false and we do not
doubt that in the discussions of the cam
paign it will be met and disproved at
every point.

rnE DEFENDER OF LABOR.

The Republican party is, in the high
est, largest and truest sense the friend
promoter and defender of labor.
What do laboring men want? Steady
work and good wages. How can they get
steady work and good wages? By main
tanning such public policy as will en-
courage every man who has few dol
lars to invest in some enterprise that will
employ labor and pay such profits as
will Justify good wages. There is no 9th
or possible way of bringing general and
permanent prosperity within the reach of
the masses of our laboring people. If 1t
were possible to let it be understood that
there would be no uncalled for changes in
the tariff laws for the protection of our
home industries, and no yirulent labor
disturbances for the next twenty years,
hundreds of millions of dollars would
seek new enterprises at once; all capital
lists and corporations would use their
means and credit to enlarge and extend
their &siness and labor would be more
universally employed and better paid than
ever before in the worlds history.
WORD ABOUT CORPORATIONS.
1t has been said that the Republican
party is the friend of corporations and
monopolies. II is the friend OF legally
organized and legally controlled corpora
tions but such corporations are not mo
nopolies. They are rather the means by
which thegreatest advantages are brought
within the reach of all. Without the prin-
ciple of incorporation we could have no
railroads, telegraphs, nor large enterprises
of any kind And what would our West
ern lands or their products be worth
without railroads, and where woulc
q market be found for the products of
large class of our artisans but for the
prosperity of our Western people which
is almost wholly dependent on railroad
operations and extensions! 1t has been
the just and wise policy of the Republ' can
party to encourage all forms of lncorpo-
rated enterprise holding such companies
always bject to regulation by the power
that created them. That the party has
been in any unjust sense the friend OF IN
corporated wealth is absolutely false
rHE TEMPERANCE c JEsT1oN.

and clearly the evils OF intemperance ana

The Labor and Temperance Questions
in the Campaign. A Word as to

To the Voters Of Wisconsin
As another important election is APP
preaching, the republican state central
committee desires to call your attention
TO the issues involved. Never in the his
tory of our states-neyer, perhaps, in the
history of any state--has there been a
political campaign, the results of which
may more vitality affect the interests and
welfare of all our people.
In one of its aspects our campaign is
of national significance. The eyes of the
whole country are upon ue. The law.
abiding and order-loving citizens of every
state will regard the result of our contest
as affecting, either favorably or unfavor-
ably the highest interests of society in
every community. This is government
of law; all rights spring from it and all
interests must be controlled by it. All
good citizens viii agree that it is absolute
ly essential to every interest of society.
even to the existence of society itself.
that law and order be maintained, and
that all forms of violence resorted to for
the redress of grievance, either real or
imaginary, be rlgidly repressed.
THE MAY RIOT.
We do not assert that democratic gov
ernor, had there been one, would not have
enforced the law against it's violators, or
that should a democratic governor be
elected he would not do his duty in main
tanning the peace and dignity of the
state. But Rusk was governor. Upon
him devolved a great responsibility in
great emergency. He did his duty,
painful az it was, and therefore his re-
election or defeat has a significance that
the election or defeat of no other man
could have. The election of any other
man, however competent and worthy.
must involve Gov. Rusk 5 defeat, and his
defeat would be everywhere construed by
anarchists and rioters to mean a public
rebuke to him, and a popular endorse
ment of them. In other words, ii means
aid comfort and encouragement to law
breakers, and brings gloom and discour
agement to the law abiding and peace
loving people of the whole country.
Therefore, whatever your former party
affiliations may have whatever your
present views upon other issues may be-
as citizens having the honor of law and
of your state and heart you cannot this
year afford to tribe with this great ques-
zion so vital to every interest of the peo
pie.

THE END OF 1T.
A Case of Mistaken Identity Settled by the
Appearance of the Double.


ATLANTA, GA, Aug. 4.-0n the 24th Of
Decem Der last thirteen persons were
killed in an accident on the Georgia Pa
cific railroad seventeen miles from At
lanta. Among those killed was j. Woods
Pierce, a Texas stockman of wealth.
Soon after the killing a Mrs. j. p.
Weaver, who lives in Indianapolis, APP
peared In Atlanta and claimed the dead
man as her husband. Mrs. Weaver as
serted that her husband had deserted her
and gone to Texas, where he changed his
name to j. w. Pierce. She followed him
to Texas and caused his arrest. He was
fined $1,000 and left Texas. Mrs. Weaver
caused the grave to be opened, and
recognized the dead man as her hus-
oand. Some of the most reliable peo-
PIE of Atlanta, who knew Weaver
when he was sailing under the
nane of Pierce in Texas, and were near
him when his wife caused his arrest, sub
stantiated Mrs. Weaver's claim, and the
body was about to be shipped to Indian
apolis when Texas lady turned up and
cialmed the dead man as j. Woods Pierce,
her husband, She was backed by an
abundance of testimony, Witnesses
swore they had known the dead man In
his life, and thst his name had never been
ANYTHING but Pierce. The Indianapolis
lady described marks on her husband,
and these marks were on the dead man.
The court granted the Texas lady an in
junction, aud the body was returned TO
Atlanta. Both ladies sued the railroads,
and juSt as Mrs. Weaver was getting
ready for her case a new link in the mys-
tery arose. 1t was the arrest OF a man
who admits that he is JAP Weaver. He
has the same marks as the dead man, and
has been recognized as the indianapolis
man.
