The Republicans Won't Let Him Speak Be-

New York Sun.

New 1Ofk sun.
The fact that Col. Robert q. Inger-
soil has not made any speeches in the
State campaign for the Republican
party since he spoke at the ratification
meeting for Warner Miller in Saratoga
the dav after Mr.. Miller's nomination
was recalled yesterday around the
State and national headquarters, when
it was announced that Mr. Miller had
said that Col. Ingersoll must not be
State. The order was said to be charac-
teristic Of Mr.. Miller, and of the met
perenptory nature. 1t was stated that
Mr.. Miiler>s ire was aroused when Col.
Ingersoll, from the same platform where
Mr.. Miller proclaimed the high license
issue, made a speech for free WhlSkey
that simply Mortified the Republicans
in Saratoga at the time.
This was too much for Mr.. Miller,
who the day before, in accepting the
nomination, had attacked the liquor
sellers, and had spoken in support OF
high license.
1t was said yesterday in the hotel
corridors that John W. Nrooman OF the
State Committee had received Mr..
| NIiller's orders concerning Mr.. niger.
soil, and that Mr.. Miller's feeling had
become particularly emphatic since he
had detiled the liquor dealers and said
he would stand or fall without them.
Mr. Erooman was not an easy man
to interview on the subject. He con-
tented himself with saying that Col.
Ingersoll had not been under the
domination of the State Committee,
adding that the National Commit &c
had charge of the Colonel. Senator
Fassett, for the National Committee,
said he didn't know anything about
the matter. He was aware that the
| Colonel had not made any speeches
in the State since his Saratoga effort,
but he thought Col. Ingerson had been
speaking in other States.
Col. Ingersoll, replying to the state
| ments that Warner Miller had sat upon
him for his Saratoga speech, said: "The
| National Committee asked me to make
speeches for them during the campaign.
I promptly told them that I had no
time, and I haven't. The story that Mr..
Miller ordered that shouldn't speak
any more in the State is all gas, so far
as I know"

The c., n. g. L. Railroad.
Register, 14th.]


The pier work ac. oss the Broad River
near the city is nearly completed, and
the superstructure, which it has been
decided will be a wooden one, will be
prepared as fast as the lumber can be
furnished by the Piedmont Land I'M
provenlent Company, who have the
contract for the same. 1t is expected
that the bridge will be completed with
in four months, and that the rails will
be laid and trains running to New berry
by the latter part Of next February.
Captain Iredell and Chief Engineer
Ellis made tour of inspection along
the line on Wednesday to ascertain the
extent of the damage by the freshet,
and report the injury sustained as in
considerable. About three-fourths OF a
mile was covered by the back water
from the Saluda, but there was no
break in the grading anywhere, and
uch damage as has been done can be
epaired at very slight cost.
The Newberry herald and news. (Newberry, S.C.) 1884-1903, 1888-09-27

Owing to the great destruction of
bridges in Edgefeld County by the re-
cent heavy freshets the Chronicle sug-
gests that all bridge builders be required
to warrant bridges to stand for five
years, and the matter is being discussed
by the County Commissioners of that
county.
We do not believe the plan good
one, and we do not believe it would be
economy to attempt such plan on the
part Of the commissioners, not to speak
of the trouble and impracticability Of
the thing. Ifa bridge builder has to
give good security and is responsible
the first cost Of building would be
greatly increased, in consequence of the
risk he assumes.
The loss has been heavy in Edge
field, and in proportion equally as
heavy in this county, but it is best for
the counties to take the risks of the
ASSuCGS lIdii ~ UuNtItdAe W oUtfsiiI c,
guarantee from the builder.
Edgefield might profit from New
berry in one thing in this matter of
bridges, and that is, make arrangements
to pay the cash for such work. 1t
would pay to borrow the money and
pay interest rather than have the build
ers to wait for their money.
We are satisfied Newberry gets her
bridges built for less money than Edge
field. And this is matter our County
Commissioners will have to consider
now, too, for the present levy will not
be sufficient to replace all the bridges
in this county that will have to be re-
built, and the levy that will be made
by the next Legislature will not be col
lected for a year. 1t will be economy
to make arrangements to borrow
money and pay cash for the work, for
if this is not done, most bridge builders
will make their estimates to have their
claims discounted at from ten to
twenty-five per cent.
We believe in the county paying cash
for whatever work it has done.
