REPUBLICAN, RATIFICATION.
How IN Republicans Received Ia
News Of Their Victory Bonnres.
Anyiis and ffrewOrks-The Meet.
fng at the Opera House.

Last Thursday, about midday, a
dispatch was received here that Gen
eral Brice, Chairman of the National
Democratic Committee, had conceded
the election Of Harrison and Morton.
The Republicans were highly elated
over the news and vented their feel
ings OF joy in the evening by a gem
eral ratification. A procession OF about
100 persons formed ON Main street,
headed by the Eureka Star and Ruby
Hill brass bands, marched up to the
Richmond works, then down to the
Eureka Con. works, and from there TO
the Opera House. A number OF bon
fires we're built on Main street and the
surrounding hills, anvils were fired,
steam whistles blew, sky-rockets shot
through the air and q continuous ex-
plosion Of Chinese bombs continued
until late in the evening. The Chi
nese enthused and Chinatown fairly
ratified with successive explosions OF
firecrackers and bombs.
One enthusiastic family illuminated
their house with wax candles.
The Opera House was well filled
with ladies, gentlemen and children,
when, led by Hon. Thomas Wren, the
procession filed into the hall. The
Eureka Star Band took position on the
stage and the Ruby Hill Band in front
Of It, each playing patriotic airs in
succession. The Glee Club sang a
number Of patriotic songs and Charles
| f. Allen recited brakes Address to
the American Flag" Hon. Thomas
| Wren, Messrs. A. T. Cheney, G. w:
Baker, j. l.. Wines, A. 7. Stearns and
j. P. Fay were called on and made
| speeches, at the conclusion OF which
| three cheers we're given forthe v~ictors,
Harrison and Morton, and the meet
ing dispersed. Subsequently a num-
Der OF the more enthusiastic Republic
cans took in the town and effectively
succeeded in painting her red"
At 8 O'Clock the next morning the
Italians enthused by burning a good
deal of powder in front OF Tore 4

As will be seen, the fair was quite q
success and even exceeded the bright |
est anticipation of the ladies who
promoted it. They are very deserv-
ing Of credit for their jealous efforts to
the church, an institution to
irrespective OF religious influ-
snces, is due the moral training OF a
representation OF the commu-
nifty. To Father Nattini the result
be very ~lattering, as it goes TO
show the love and respect that is en-
.ertained for him by the members OF
his church.
The ladies desire us through the
SENTINEL to return their heartfelt
10 the people OF Eureka for
heir kind patronage, to the ladies and
who so literally donated
refreshments and presents for |
lie fair and to the ladies and gentle
men who calamity assisted at the
ables and in selling tickets. The
'oung folks are not to be forgotten, |
out are quite deserving of special
mention for the intense interest they |
.ook and the assistance they SO will
ngly gave towards the general sue
,ess of the ladies' fair.

ANscnLAe's BRUTAL BUrCnER-
We Tells How He Murdered Mr.
and MRS. Hitchcock,

and MRS. Hitchcock.
Los ANGELES, Nov. 4.-Rev. NJ. 5.
q. Click, Fritz Anschlag's spiritual
adviser, to-day made public the MUIR
derer's autobiography, which is largely
devoted to a recital Of his three muir
ders.
In alluding to his youth, Anschlag
says he was sickly as a child, and on
one occasion fell down and injured his
head 30 that he suffered for a long
time. On another occasion he was
nearly asphyxiated by gas, and lay in
sensible for four days. In speaking Of
the Fuegh murder, he charges Bader
with being an accessory.
The most interesting part of the
murderer's life relates to his story OF
the killing OF the Hitchcocks. He
has given various versions Of the af-
fair, but this is probably the only true
one. During the day, the murderer
says, he hid a Ratchet in the barn.
In the evening after Mr.. Hitchcock
had taken the horses TO the stable
Anschlag followed him and, getting
behind him, hit him several blows
with the Ratchet.
Thinking the husband dead, the
murderer then, holding the bloody
Ratchet behind him, went into the
kitchen where Mrs. Hitchcock was at
work. She turned and looked at him
on his entrance, at once resuming her
duties, when Anschlag walked up be-
hind her and drove the Ratchet into
her brain. He gave her several blows
o after she fell. He then returned
to the barn and slashed Hitchcock sew
eral times with a heavy AK.
Hitching the horses to the farm
wagon, he tied them in the yard and
dragged first the body OF Hitchcock
and then his wife's to the wagon and
pulled them in. He drove to a place
three miles distant, and finding that
he had forgotten a spade threw the
bodies out and returned 10 the house.
Here he tidied up TO hide all traces Of
his crime and changed his clothing,
taking the blood-covered clothes with
him. He next returned to the spot
where his victims lay, dug a grave and
buried them. His clothes we're cast
into a tall mustard patch.
He claims to have been under the
influence of wine at the time, which,
however, he explains he took to nerve
himself for the bloody deed he had in
contemplation. At the close he asks
for Divine mercy for his terrible
crimes.

GOt a sure Thing.

James Laity of Belmont had acrush-
ing at Ledlie Of ten tons of ore that
assayed among the hundreds. 1t is
said that he is in no hurry to take it
out, while silver is quoted so low, but
works there almost every day running
drifts and ~crosscuts so as to block out
the ledge and leave it to the best adj
vantage for future workings. When
he gets short of cash he ships and has
some of it worked, as he has just lately,
to purchase his Winter supplies. While
it Is in the ground he knows he can
not lose it, and there to be drawn on
as good as any bank.

From the Washington Critic:
Tie jute-bagging trust, that by the
late advance in the prices aroused
the righteous wrath Of the Southern
cotton planters, has received very
black eye through tho efforts of Sen.
ator Jones of Arkansas A recent
ruling of the Treasury Department,
made in response to certain inquiries
and representations by Senator
Jones, declares that cotton-bagging,
the product of American manufact.
ure and once used as a covering for
export cotton, can be returned to
this country free of import duty. 1t
is thought that this ruling will op.
crate seriously against the trust, and
possibly break up a most unjust COM
bination. 1t will certainly be of
great relief to the planters, as it will
enable them TO buy secondhand
bsgging at low figures and use it
over again. ltmay require additional
legislation to fully protect them
against the jute monopoly, but as
prompt effective measure in their i'm
mediate interest, saving them hun
dreds Of thousands of dollars, the de-
cision of the Treasury is ofgreat and
timely Importance; and Senator
Jones is entitled to the gratitude OF
the South for the interest he has
shown in the matter.

Cate, the nominee of the democracy
Of the first district. Feathcrston led
off in an hours talk, in which he re-
viewed in a measure the policies of
both the old parties, as he under
stood them, and drew narrowing pic
tuies of the wholesale robbery and
wanton oppression Of the laboring
classes through the Vaccinations Of
the capitalists in controlling all leg
islation in their interest. Both the
democratic and republican parties
were placed in the same attitude,
and berated alike, and from his point
of view, both were wholly corrupt
and unworthy of confidence and sap
port; it mattered little to the Capt.
talist what party was successful and
put in Office, so long as the masses of
the voters could be kept fighting
and knocking each others heads to.
gethcr, while the bosses Of manufac.
tories, syndicates, trusts and CON-
bines of every description, were up
held in their robbery of the laboring
classes. But, for all the evils, thus
:onjrred dp in his mind by a fertile
Imagination, which exist under our
free republican system of govern
ment, Mr.. Fcatherston, in his isola-
ted and lofty position, posing as II
pure, white-winged cherub of inno-
cence and rectiiied honesty, and as
the incorr uptible agent of the what
is.it party, utterly failed to suggest
by word, hint or even gesture, a rem
edy for the existing evils he SO much
deprecated.
Judge Cate followed him, and af-
ter manfully avowing his adherence
to the democratic party and its prin-
ciples, challenged his opponent to
define hi. position in the recent state
eleetion, and what would be his po.
sition in the November election!
but on these propositions, Mr.. +.
remained silent. Taking up the
history of the two leading political
parties of the nation, from the issu-
ance of the L. 5. Bonds in 1852,
Judge Cate showed conclusively, by
the records, that the democratic
party, even when in the minority
during the long lease of power held
by the Republican party, always
sought to legislste in the interest of
all the people, sud especially IN the
interest of the laboring classes. That
evils existed was admitted; that they
had not been removed bv the pres
cnt democratic administration, WAS
simply because the senate was still
controlled by republican majority;
who interposed every obstacle possi-
bic to hinder and retsrd legislation
III the interest of the masses; that
while foar years was a long time,
yet such vast machinery as o,r sys-
tenn of government with its complex
ram;hcations must necessarily move
slowly, when thus handicapped.
He wound up by making a stirring
appeal to his party friends not to
desert the principles for which we
have so long contended, now that VIC
tory WAS within reach; to vote for a
candidate running upon side issue,
without platform, principle or a
following WAS simply folly and play.
ing into the hands of their enemy,
the republican party.
Without party; without plat.
form; without recognized political
influence from any source, what
could the voters of the first Arkan-
sas district expect Featherston to ac-
complisl i'm the wny of LEGISLATION i'm
