food, and 1t was shutdown before she

or squall heeled the Constellation over.
and she was boarded by sea which
swept Mrs. Bradburn and two men
away. and took with it the boat and a
lot Of deck rattle. The men she saw
struggling as she got hold of the boat.

was almost dark. as in my case. and
she also drove to the west. How she
got into the boat she could not remem-
Der. nor was she clear as to how long
she had foated She thought it must
have been a great deal longer than l
figured.
It was three days before the woman
picked up her strength and courage,
and by that time was ready to leave
the island. The mast and sail belong
ing to the boat had been slowed under
the thwarts and were safe, and all had
to do was to fill, number of big shells
with fresh water. of which. as I have
forgotten to state, there was fine sup
ply on the island. We left in the
morning. heading to the south. and at
three o'clock in the afternoon we were
picked up by an American ship called
Happy Home. She was bound up for
Japanese teas, but that same day we
signaled an English ship coming out of
Shanghai and bound home, and Mrs.
Bradburn was transferred. That was
the last ever saw or heard OF her.

SOUTHERN METHODS.


Something Must He Done to Put an End
to the Reign Of Terror.
1t seems that the Democratic party
in the South Is not content with hav-
ing cast nearly q solid vota 1t the polls.
but is determined To, rob. the Republic
ans of the very few scraps of success
which they picked up hero and there;
and the remarkable similarity of
method which prevails in different
States makes it certain that there ex-
lists q well-defined system for main
tanning the political sOlidity OF the
South. and for suppressing the real
sentiment Of the people.
During the past week three things
have occurred which are extremely
significant. and which clearly illustrate
the determination Of the South to rule
or ruin. One is the assassination Of
John NJ. Clayton. Of Arkansas, whose
only crime was daring to contest the
seat in Congress Of Clinton r. Brock
inridge. The second Is the daring at
tempt of the Democrats in West Vir-
ginia to reverse the popular verdict.
and to steal the Governorship fromGoff.
the Republican candidate, who is un-
questionably elected. The third is the
plot for the assassination Of Frank w.
Pope, Florida Republican. who is en-.
gagged at the present time, as Clayton
was, in collecting evidence for use in
contesting the seat of a Democratic
Congressman in the next Congress.
If these things are allowed to go on
unchecked and unhindered the United
States must revise its penal statutes.
and declare with all the solemnity of a
legal enactment that it is q high
crime and misdemeanor for any Re-
publican south of Mason and Dixon's
line to aspire to Office. and that it is
felony without benefit of clergy for
any one to contest an Office against
Democrat; and to this should be added
a general amnesty clause for all who
should engage in the righteous and
holy work of shooting in cold blood
Republican candidates and contestants
and their friends.
Here in San Francisco q contest is
pending precisely like the Arkansas
and Florida contests; that is. a Repub-
lican contests the seat Of Democrat
who has received q certificate Of cleo
ton to the Fifty-first Congress; and
yet it is safe to say that it has not oc-
Cured to Mr.. Clunie nor to any Of his
most ardent supporters to shoot Mr..
Phelps nor to waylay and murder
those who have collected testimony in
his behalf. B~t if the principle is
correct for Arkansas and Florida, why
not for California? A Democratic
vote in Congress from this State
counts just as much as vote from
either of those States. and if political
ethics there recognize the propriety OF
numbering the contestant. why not
here as well?
Something must be done in this re-
| gard with the South. The people Of
the United States will not longer sub
NIT to the reign Of terror which
Southern Democracy employs for its
own purposes, but will insist that
every citizen of the Republic shall
have ali his legal and constitutional
rights. South as we'll as North, and
that to kill contestant for an Office
shall be deemed murder. and shall be
punished as SUCH San Francisco

POLITICAL CRIMES.
How the Democratic Party Produces Its
Great MajOrities I'm the South.

How the Democratic Party Produces Its
Great MajOrities In the South.
The methods by which the great
Democratic majorities in the Southern
States are produced are forcibly illus
trated in the report of the Senate Com
mittee on Privileges and Elections.
The facts established by the committee
which has been investigating the cleo
ton outrages in Washington County.
Tex. are such as to call blush OF
shame to the cheeks of every honest
citizen. Not only was the Republican
vote, white and colored, suppressed
by bands of Democratic ruffians. or.
ganized for the purpose of intimidat.
ing the Republicans and acting as they
did with the knowledge Of the leaders
of the Democratic party; not only were
ballOt-boxes stolen and destroyed at
polls where sufficient number oil
Republican voters could not be intim1.
dated; but, after the preparation OF
such frauds upon the ballot number OF
Republicans were murdered or driven
away from their homes in order to
prevent prosecution Of the criminals,
and to this day neither the State nor
the local authorities have done any
thing to bring the guilty to justice.
1t is time that the people Of the North
should realize the fearful prevalence
and extent of political crime in num-
Der of Southern States. The question
is one of National range and
of vital importance to the peo-
pie of every State and Terri
tory in the Union. Only the other day
the intelligence Of a dastardly political
murder in Arkansas was flashed over
the wires. Colonel John NJ. Clayton.
a Republican, elected to Congress in
his district. but duly counted out. was
murdered IN cold blood while at Plum
merville collecting evidence to be used
in his contest for the seat. Such &C.
currences would be impossible if the
practice of breaking the constitution
and laws had not thoroughly poisoned
and polluted the Bourbon mind.
Like the Anarchist, the Bourbon be-
lieves in the bullet instead of the bal
lot only he practices his principles on
a larger scale and il never hanged fo' it.
Every honest citizen should consti.
tute himself committee of one and
,sitate the question until the public
conscience is thoroughly aroused.
Brought into the light where thou
sand intelligences may burn upon it,
the truth will at last force these evils
and dangers and their consequences
upon tine conscience and the response
bility of the whole people"
The Recommendation Of the COM
mittee that provision should be made
for more complete protection of the
exercise of the elective franchise by
act of Congress- only voices the senti-
ment and conviction of all citizens who
are aware Of the dangers threatening
the Republic from this source. Min
