There have been some local elections

simultaneously, in the regions where
the elections were to be held, the air
was full Of stories of negro uprisings,
which were the occasion for gangs If
white men to go out on cunning excur
sons. to shoot down the prominent
colored men. This is the regulation

all 1t is not wonderful that u party

It is not an accident that it defends the
open saloon, and opposes all measures
calculated to bring the liquor traffic
into strict subordination to the civil
power. Its outcry about personal lib
erty" and all that is sham; it wants
the open saloon because it is u good
nursery for Democrats, and can always
be used when a general corruption of
the ballot-box is to be brought about.
In short, in spite of the many good men
who are lured into the Democratic par
ty by its clever name, its spirit is evil,
and that continually, and it is no in
justice, in view Of its past career, to
say Of it,
"Oh, theu invisible spirit of Democracy,

Whenever mandatory reduces the

Professor Warren Upham, a member
of the United States geological survey
corps, who has been on duty in Dakota
for the last four years, says that the
end of the dry period is close at hand,
and that period Of uniformly wet sea.
sons may now be confidently expected.
Prof. Upham's theory is that alternate
periods of maximum to minimum mois-
ture, each lasting about twelve years,
occur regularly in this northwest coun-
try, and his belief is that a moist period
is now due. This may be so. but we
would not advise a dakota farmer to
forego boring an artesian we'll for irri-
eating purposes, provided he has the
necessary means, Oh the strength Of
his belief in the correctness Of Prof.
Upham's theory. According to our
reading, the. cause Of the dry seasons 10
Dakota is wbollysa, physical one, which
it may be possible to modify, but never
to remove. Tie reason Is this: The
clouds that come up from the tropical
stream Of the Pncific, fairly dripping
with moisture. in their course eastward
over the mountains, meet with adverse
currents Of cold air, which wiring them
dry us it were before they reach the
eastern slope Of the mountains. Thus
it comes about that there is little or no
rainfall at the head Of the Missouri,
while right over on the opposite slope
of the mountains there is more rain
than is needed. But it is thought that
a considerable portion Of this excessive
rainfall in the mountains finds its way
eastward through subterranean chan
nels. and hence geologists predicted,
twenty and over years ago, that artesi-
an wells would te il success in most
parts of Dakota. The numerous lakes
thrc cughout the Northwest, it has been
argued, receive their principal water
supply from this source. This is based
again upon the we'll ascertaired fact
that the entire annual rainfall of the
Upper mississippi region would hardly
supply that stream with its annual out
flow, while there is that to be accounted
for that flows northward in the Red
River Of the North. and that flowing
eastward through the Straits Of Saulte
st. Marie.

It was either the life of Justice Field
or the life of Judge Terry. There is no
longer any room for doubt on that sub
ject. And it is fortunate in every re.
spect for the cause of law, order and
morality that it was Judge Terry who
Was killed instead of Justice Field. A
government that did not protect its
own high officials in the discharge OF
their duty would not deserve to live.

PARSONS POLITICAL PLAN.
He Wants to Divide the White Vote In Order
10 Split the CoIored Vote.

10 CDut tue CoiOreu NOtes
WASHINGTON, July 7.-United States
Attorney Lewis E. Parsons, of the Northern
district of Alabama, claims that his plan
for increasing the Republican vote of the
State is not generally understood. "Our
aim and object" he says, sis to divide the
white vote of the South. This vote must be
divided before the colored vote will divide.
IF the whites were divided, this would COM
pei the Democrats to count fair in elections.
A fair count OF the vote would force
them to appeal to the colored men, in kind
ness and good faith, to vote with them.
When they do this some colored men will
vote with them. This will undoubtedly re-
suit in both parties treating them fairly and
giving to them the protection they cannot
and do not now get. This will, we hope and
believe, solve the race question. Then the
race question will not arise on all occasions,
but the question will be, ''Is he fit and COM
petent." 1t is this the men in Alabama,
who think with me, are trying and hoping
to do; that is, trying to divide the white vote
/ have never advocated the organization of
a white mems party. The organization to
which belong, and which has been so per-
sistently misrepresented by interested par
ties, does not assume to be, and is not, a
political porty. Bat its only purpose is 10
aid the Republican party; to draw to it
white men who believe in the principles of
that party and desire to come to us, and, il
possible, to get a fair count of the votes as
cast. Until we can get the vote counted as
cast, every one cast for us, whether black
or white, is counted against us at the will
or pleasure Of the Democratic party. Of
course, this is dead weight to the National
Republican party, because that vote is rep
resented in Congress and in the Electoral
College against that party"

American and British and German
Consuls
None of the Germans were present.
Mataafa made a speech, in which he
thanked Admiral Kimberly for bringing
about the present peaceful state Of affairs in
Samoa. The Tamasese have left their camp
at Luatuanuu and gone home. A number
of them have visited Apia recently, and
have not been molested by the other party.
ONLY AN ACCIDENT.
A fatal accident occurred here two weeks
ago which created much excitement at
the time. Two Trenton sailors were in a
saloon kept by q German named Voight.
The latter had loaded revolver In his
hand, and in attempting to lower the
hammer the weapon was discharged.
The ball struck one of the sailors named
Bernhardt Ricklin and killed him instant
ly. There was some doubt as TO whether or
not the shooting was accidental, and so
Voight was detained by guard OF Amer
lean marines until the German Consul was
notified of the affair. The Consul held an
investigation afterward, and demanded his
discharge.
Corporal Jehu Nichols, of the Trenton's
marine guard, was killed May A, by the fall
of quantity of lumber under which he was
standing. A box was received here from
the State Department at Washington this
week, containing about 81 100 worth of gold
and silver watches and other articles and
50, 900 in gold coin, to be distributed among
the natives who rendered assistance to the
American ships in the hurricane last March.
The distribution of the gifts will be made by
Consul Blackjack.
The latest newS from the Berlin confer
ence was received here by the Mariposa this
week, by which it was learned that the con-
ference had practically concluded its work.
1t is not probable that anything will be done
toward establishing governments here un-
til official information is received in regard
to the result of the conference.

Ricketts,, teacher in the Hill House High

the school, Wednesday noon. The school
closed on that day for the long summer va

minister. They are now at Stockport. O.,
Mr. Ricketts, home.
Ricketts, became acquainted with the girl
about two years ago, when she entered the
High School, and paid her marked atten-
ton. To this her father, Charles w. Davis,
objected, on account of unsavory stories
which followed Ricketts, here from Wilkes
barre, Pa, and he forbade Ricketts, the
house. Ricketts,, however, continued to
meet the girl clandestinely, walked home
with her from school, and finally her father
complained to Superintendent Dutton. He
dismissed Ricketts,, but the Board of Ed
ucation reinstated him, discharging him,
however. about three weeks ago. Ricketts,
is about 30 years of age, and the girl is just
