GREAT EXCITEMENT.
Yellow Fever on the Increase in
the South.

JAcKsJNvILLE, Sept. 24.-This has
been one of the most disag 'eeable
days of the season. Yesterdays
northeaster has been succeeded By
"A cold rain and dri1zIe that mas coti-
tinuedthroughout the day and even-
ing. fhis weather is regarded aS
exceedingly unfaYorable for the
sick, but it is encouraging to noe
that only Ave deaths have been re>
ported. New cases, however, sill
continue IN abundance. The re-
port to-day shows 113, of which 85
are colGred ana % whites. Four
fifths ofthe new e@ses a.e in the
suburbs Total casc3 reported 10
date, 1891. Total deaths. 217. 1t
is impossible TO approximate the
nuu1bef Of caees that have not been
reported to the board of health,
One physician has had over 130,
few OF which bave ben reported.
ATLANTA, Ga. Sept. 24.-Chatta-
nocga has modified her quarantine
regulations so es to adm it trains by
the Western and Atlantic and East
Tennessee roads and those passen-
gers who have health certificates
are all right. All the roads .'om AT
lanta are in active operation and not
at all troubled by the quarantine
regulations.
JACKSON, Miss, Sept. 24.-There
haYe been no deaths or new cases
reported since yesterday morning.
Ali tae sick are doing we'll. Three
expe ..enced nurses arrived f-om
New Orleans this morning.
WASHINGTON, September 24.-Tne
postofice department has received
several telegrams 10 day from the
yellow fever districts which indicate
that the running Of OF ms OH nearly
all of the railroads in Alabama and
Mississippi have been abandoned,
and that the whole section is panic
stricken. One telegram dated
Atlanta, Ca, t. day says: "1he
running of trains between Meridian
and New Orleans, Meridian and
Shrevepo- /, Aberdeen and Durant,
Greenwood and Jackson, Durant
and Tohula, Atlanta and Artesia,
west of Columbus, Miss, are not
permitted by the people, and the
prol ,bi''ty is that Cairo and Mob
lie, and Memphis and New Orleans
trains vii be discontinued. The
only way of reaching New Orleans
with any degree of certainty is by
way of Montgomery, and even this
route is threatening. The people
along the Vicksburg & Shreveport
road seem to be one va3t mob.
MOBILE, September 24.-Owing
to the restrictions of the quaran-
tine regulations in Mississippi, Tens
nessee and Kentucky the Mobile
aud Ohio stopped tonight all
through passenger and freight trains
on that road. Traffic VIII be re-
sumed, Manager CLARK says, when
reason resumes her way and demor-
alizaLion ends.
MEMPHIS, September 24.-The
latest from Decatur, received to-day,
is so the effect that no new cases of
yellow fever have developed since
yesterday, nor any deaths occurred .

TheRea Purpose of the Republican
Party.

1t is evident The republican party
does not expect TO elect either liz
ne ional .icket, or in States usually
democratic, State tickets. The
whole fight is really 10 reverse the
present majority in the House Of
Representatives and secure the cons
troll of tn.t body fer the 4publicans
in the interest of high taxes, biz jobs
and trusts and monopolists. Mr..
Quey, tue chairman of the national
republican executive commit .ee, a
Senator for the State of PennsylYanr
ia, State peculiarly in crested in
the big monopolists, was chosen for
this place on account of his peculiar
relationship to these monopolists,
and as most probable agency who
could best '-.iy the fat" out of those
.srnostlv interested" in the present
high republican tariff tax. Now
! Mr.. Quay specially enloins upon
his followers the great necessity Of
making extraordinary effor,s 10 "re-
turn protectionists" TO Congress. So
| in our district, the special effor..s of
the republicans are 10 defeat Mr..
Johnston at all sacrifice Of princi-
/ pie anu thus other candidates. Pro-
positions will be made, specially in
out-of way places, to swap any and
| everybody off to get votes for Mr..
Ewart. We have only to caution
our ffiends-the true men of the
district to be on guard, anl watch
and thwart all such efforts. Taxation
must be reduced. The burdens now
! resting on the people and business,
placed there by the republican par
ty, which said party is strenuouely
endeavoring to maintain, must be
reduced, and it can only be done by
returning democrats to Congress.
Let our people who belieYe IN hon
est government and who want taxes
reduced be on guard, and see that
| Mr.. Johnston is elected BY large
majority.

thanks of the deceased's family
for the efficient manner in which
his work was done. Knowing
Hendersonville to be a small
place, we had almost given up all
hope of ever gazing upon our

our delight in removing the lid of
the casket to behold him lying
Like one enjoying peaceful
slumber. Again expressing our
appreciation, I am, very respect

THE famous protean artist and
character actor, Mr.. John Tnompa
son, played TO q well-filled house
last evening at the Park Oeeia
House. His musical extravaganza,
Ha-Ha-Hs-, is by far the most
unique, original and laughable per-
formance ever put on The stage.
From the very beginning until the
end, the house vas in an uDroar.
Mr.. Thompson's songs and dances
are inimit~bly grotesque. The ladies
also performed their part OF the en-
tertainment in a manner that plain
ly showed skill. Mr.. Thompson
failed not once to elicit applause, the
expression of his countenance was
first serious and then exceedingly
comical. His ability 10 play on the
various instruments as presented
last evening, prove him to be at the
head of all artists in his line. Those
who have not seen bin and his COM
pany should not miss seeing him to-
night, as this is a rare treat and the
last chance to see it.

WEST VIRGINIA TO THE FRONT.

Barnum and Brice are having
pretty bad scare about West Virgin.
gia, and with excellent reason. With
in few days they hav sent consid.
cradle money there to be used in
saving the Democratic electoral tick.
ct. 1t is practically conceded that
Gof, the Republican candidate for
governor, will be elected and that
this will not unlikely carry the Leg.
islature, which has United States
Senator to elect. The Democrats
have hardly been able to realize un-
til now the strength Of the Republi
can movement in West Virginia.
With Indiana and West Virginia the
Republicans could elect Harrison
without New York, New Jersey or
Connecticut, and the fact that West
Virginia was swinging around quite
steadily has given the Democratic
managers a nervous chill, and they
have determined to buy the elector-
al ticket through if that be possible.
There is no state in which tire clos.
ing days of the campaign will be live
lier than in West Virginia, and
while on governor and Legislature
the Republican chances are certain
ly the better, they may be regarded
at least as even on the electors

The ladies of Leetown p. E. Church
gave yard party in Mr.. Isaac H.
Strider's yard some two weeks ago,
and netted $50, to be used toward de-
fraying the expenses of the repairs
being now made tC their church.
The ladies of the Baptist Church of
Leetown will give supper at Mr..
Geo. d. Wiltshires this evening; pro-
ceeds for the benefit of the church.
Rev. r. p. Stricken administered
the ordinance of baptism to one per-
son at Mr.. Bakers mill pond last
Sunday afternoon. Quite a large
crowd were present.
Our colored friends had a festival
on Saturday night last, at the +" Grid
iron Academy" to raise money for
church expenses. l understand that
they are still continuing their pro-
tracted meeting, and have taken sew
eral into the church.
Quite a number of persons went
from this end of the county to the big
Democratic blow out at Charlestown,
last Tuesday, but they did not have
quite so enthusiastic time as was
anticipated, too much rain for the
average Democrat to get enthusiast.
ic on-he wants something stronger
as stimulater when he whoops e.n
up"
The colored voters did not rally
very strongly for Cleveland and
Thurman, at Leetown, and the color
ed Democratic Club of Leetown does
not promise to be very large one.

Protection in every part of the
country, we would bring home to
the Republicans and Protectionists

tie is won today, but tomorrow the
ground that we have gained may be
retnken. Do not be too sure; work as
if success depended on your very
last effort. A victory for Mr.. Faux

and his party future success. a de-
teat in his own county is more than
we can realize. Money, positions,

staked OIL this issue.

ment when the votes are counted.
