EDITOR There is no
abatement of interest in the debate,
The Senate galleries are crowded every
day and many members Of the lower
House leave their end of the Capitol
for the unusual attractions now offer
ed in the north wing. Since Edmunds'
mastery attack upon the Adninistra-
ton, Mr.. Wilson the Senator from
Iowa. has also thrown his lance at the
royal" prerogatives, and Senators
Pugh, of Alabama, and Kenna. Of
West Virginia. have made democratic
contribution to the discussion. To-
day again Senator Culloin, of Illinois,
will speak from the Republican stand
point.
Senator Wilson drew comparisons
between Darwin's protoplasm and the
democratice doctrine Of reform, and
asserted that to deny information was
to accuse public character. He quot
ed the Presidents promise that this
Administration was to "act behind
glass doors, and was to have mo Sc
crets." This, Mr.. Wilson said, was
courageous and the country applauded
it; but it had not lasted long. The

A WINNING NAME.

j
others named systematically who
ought to be nominated by the Re-
publican Convention it IS ex-Gov-
ernor Kinkead. There are many
other men named who would
doubtless prove capable men, but
they have never been put to the
test and their capacity for the office
would be problem until after
election
James Kinkead received the
nomination for Governor eight
years ago, won his f.ht in quiet
dignified campaign which brought
the best element Of the community
to the support Of the Republican
ticket. During the four years OF
his administration the State pros
pered and the affairs Of his office
were handled in such a way that no
stain was ever cast upon the Dig
nifty or self respect which the peo-
pie looked for IN that department
of State affairs. 1t cannot be
trn,hfully said that any resident OF
tins State points with pride 70 the
four years which succeeded Kin
kead : retirement.
Il is not necessary to dwell upon
what the people know and the read
err will pardon this incidental men
ton Of il at this time.
Mr. kinkead's friends have again
urged him to accept the nomina
ton and place himself in the ti.ht.
Whether or not he has reached a
final decision in the matter the
APPEAL has 10 personal knowledge
but it would be a pleasure to this
journal to be able to announce that
Ex-Governor Kinkead was candi-
date. and still further to publish
the face that he was nominated.
4 candidate with SO unimpeach-
able record. and who has shown
himself so staunch a friend Of the
people's interests. needs no better
endorsement from us.
In this campaign the necessity
of having a leader of acknowledged
strength at the head of the State
ticket is apparent to every observer
Of the situation.
His nomination would unite all
conflicting interests and give the
Republican party a standard bearer
worthy of the party ana its past
honorable record.
NJ. Kinkead has been Identified
with the growth and progress of
Nevada: man eyer alive to the
interests of the State. and his nom
NATION would give good ballast to
the ticket.
The only objection yet made
against him is the fact that he IS
not the possessor of wealth. No
stronger point could possibly be
made in his favor. 1t has been
shown that he has never prostltuted
his office for gain, and If there IS
any higher eulogium to be made
we would like to know 1t.
The APPEAL believes in electlnC
man to this office for his indivld-
nal worth, and the man who urges
Kinkeads moderate circumstances
against him is not true Rerabll-
can.

Charleston. September |, / | a. m.
An earthquake, such as has never
before been known in the history of
this city, swept over Charleston last
night, shortly after 10 o'clock, eaus-
ing more loss and injury to property,
aud far more loss of life than the cy-
clone of year before. The city is
wrecked; the strects are cucumber
ed with masses OF fallen bricks aud
tangled telegraph and telephone
wires, and up to an early hour it was
impossible to pass from one part Of
the city to another. The first shock
was by far the most severe. Most
of the people with their families
passed the night in thestreets, which
even this morning are crowded with
people afraid to re-cnter their houses.
More than sixty persohs were killed
or wounded, chiefly colored. Among
the whites killed or fatally injured
were Nj. J. Lynch, DR.. II. Alexander
Hammond and Ainslcy Robinson.
Fires broke out in different parts of
the city Immediately after the earth
quake, and some are still burning,
but no danger of spreading. There
is no way of leaving the city at
present.

If the.TIMEs was to raise a yell
and wave the cnsanguined shirt and
ask the white people to combine
against the negro, it would be con-
sidered by Haskins and his ticket
as good cause for hanging -" re-
traction, or racket" but they can
at the dead hour of night, when all
honest citizens are peacefully at rest,
assemble their deluded colored fol-
lowers in out-of the-way places aud
appeal to their prejudices to the point
Of melting riot, and it is all right.
The democrats OF Mississippi county
who bear the burden OF taxation, are
clear.y in the majority; and while
recognizing the right of every man
to vote as he sees fit, they know their
rights and will maintain them at all
hazard. Put that down in your plpe
and smoke.

The feeling of the intelligent, re-
spectacle colored men of Pulaski
County is expressed as follows in the
Little Rock Democrat which voices
their sentiment toward their pol:ti-
cal "bosses," and as the same condi-
ton OF affairs exist here, we would
advise our thinking, reasonable col
ored men to follow their example:
"Thcir argument was that the col
ored people have all along been their
own worst enemies, simply because
they had suffered themselves lead
around by the nose, and made to ac-
cept or refuse measures, regardless
of self-interest, by men upon whom,
as men of judgement, they have no
right to believe will do them good,
even if they had the power That
they have been acting as mere au-
tomatons operated by skilled manip-
ulators of the wires, keeping time to

selfish manipulators may have seen
fit to produce as most subservient to
their own advancement. That they
have taken advantage Of the colored
mans ignorance and pushed him to
the front to brook all dangers, pay
all the costs, suffer all the blame, en-
durc all the privations and get
nothing. That the have been led by
these dcsi sners to fight the men who
have furnished them homes and Civ
en- them employment. That these
very same shrcwd and INSCRIPTIONS
men have brought the young colored
men to the threshold of manhood in
the fullness Of bitter hatred Of the
men whose friendly hands have Civ
en- .hem succor from their infancy,
aud that by So doing the great prin-
ciplc of life have not been studied
4 by colored men, aud therefore they
have remained plant instruments in
the hands Of their false friends. They
seem to have summed the matter up
in logical way and to have reached
proper conclusions, and as men SEN
sible of thear power to right the
wrongs thus perpetrated against
them, they will shake themselves
loose at the polls and manifest their
rights as free men and vote for whom
they please-taking particular care
to vote for their best interests.

something for the Girls,

Every ,!OuSckccpcr knows how careful
treatment keeps tablc-lincn and house
hold furniture. Girls do not always
know or remember That great care OF
their own little possessions will often
enable them to dress nicely on very little
money. a lady says:
"When | was n girl there was one OF
my young friends who was distinguished
for making her things last Her dress,
hats, gloves and ribbons were n marvel
of durability. | used to wonder how
she managed to make them last so with
out their looking shabby, but ! ceased
to do SO after / had visited hor ut her
own home. The reason why her clothes
wore so long was that she took such good
care of them. Her dresses were brushed
and folded away carefully, and the
slightest spot on them was removed ms
oon as it was discovered. Her hat was
wrapped in an old pocket handkerchief,
and put away i'll Il box as soon rs done
with, The strings and laces being straight
ened and rolled out most symmctrically
each time. Her gloves were never fold
Ell together, Il were pulled ont straight
and laid fiat in a box, one upon the 9th
or, each time they were used, The tiniest
hole being mended almost before it had
time TO show itself. But the thing that
impressed me most was the care she be-
slowed on her ribbons. When making
up bows she used to line the upper part
of the ribbon with white paper, and this
not only prevented the ribbon from be-
coming limp and creased, but kept it
clean, so that when the bow was s0iled
on one side she could turn the ribbon,
and the ribbon, and the part hat had
been covered came out looking new and
fresh. That girl married and brought
up a large family. Her husband had to
fight his way, and did so bravely, and
was unusually successful, for he became
wealthy. but his prosperity was due
quite as much 10 his wife's care and
economy in saving money rs it was to
his in making it"
