THE SHADOWGRAPHER.
1.-THE sPELIMAN-MoRAN FEUD


Good people with time on their hands
and in search of pleasant entertainment
will do well to visit the court of his genial
honor. Judge Sanders, this morning at ten
hours by the court house clock. At that
hour will be called the Speilman-Moran
case. This is but another phase of the
long feud between these somewhat notori-
Gus residents of tine First ward. AS the en-
nifty has reached an unusual degree of local
interest and the enc is when the wisest man
knoweth not, it may be interesting to recall
for a minute the history of one Of the most
famous cases of the institution known as
the American feud. This particular history
differs somewhat from the Slcilian "duello
~eterna' in that the principals are Irish. An
Irishman according to recent advices from
the Headquarters is not gifted with a fond
ness for warfare, but in this case circum-
stances warrant a differing from the ''little
man.
1t appears that in the year of our Lord
1901 there resided on the northern extremity
Of the First ward a certain dignltary known
as Col. Mike Spellman, He was a worthy
citizen, q born fighter and a soldier who
had won his title by gallant conduct during
the third day at Boyne. He came to America
"broke," served two years on the New York
police force, beginning his term the morn
ing after his formal entry at Castle Garden.
When his administration was brought to q
sudden close he packed his worlds goods
and came to the distant and unknown
northwest, He WAS accompanied by his
wife, II worthy matron whose ancestry
dated far back in the history of the County
Glare, and ten small children.
BY a curious series of circumstances the
ancient family Of Moran under an edict oil
King George ~ was forced TO sock exile
from the land they loved 30 we'll. The
head of the family, Major Pat Moran,
found himself, a wife and several small
children at Boston August /, 1900, looking
about for the cradle Of liberty. Through
the intervention of old friends who "left
Ireland and mother because they were
poor" the major was fortunate enough tt
secure a position as boss of Il sewer gang or
Commonwealth avenue. How long ht
served or what enumeration was brought
forth are facts unknownto us. Those seek.
ing more definite information are respect
fully referred to the records of the Office o.
street commissioner of Boston. 1t is sufi
cient to say that the major was forced tt
leave that city for other fields, and by curl

NOTWITHSTANDING the fact that the
Helena Journal ridicules the resolution
of the New York democratic convention,
declaring that the party is friendly to
thu colored race, the New York Age, the
leading Afro-American organ, heartily
supports Mr.. Flower for governor. 1t
says that not only has Boss Piatt re-
fused recognition to colored me who
sought appointment to office, but that
Mr.. Fassett a~ntagonized a civil rights
measure whGn he was in the state
senate, and is unpopular with the
colored people at his home in Elmira for
that and other reasons. OF Mr.. Flower

THE republican brethren appear to be
badly ratified over the organization OF
democratic clubs, and the enthusiasm
with which Senator Faulkner and party
were greeted in Montana. The daily
Russell Harrison, after making a
wholly inadequate and falsited news
report Of the Helena meeting and IN
sisting that it was a failure and a farce,
devotes thirteen, of fifteen editorial arti-
Giles in yesterdays paper, to the gather
ing, while the Mountain of the
night before discusses no other topic in
it's two columns of comment. Some
body is evidently scared.

ONE of the ugliest facts Candidate
Fassett has to meet in his canvass is
that be was Platt's instrument in de-
feating the location of the Worlds fair
in New York. Platt didn't want the
fair held in the metropolis because it
was a democratic city and tho state
government was also democratic, and he
feared the democrats might somehow
gain political advantage by having the
exposition in the city. The business
men of New York, regardless Of party,
are determined to bury Fassett out of
sight for his discreditable part in assist
ing Platt's scheme.

THE Inter-Mountain s%neeringly says
that the Hon. Chauncey F.. Black is
called governor because he was twice
defeated for that office. Not SO. He is
called governor" by courtesy, just as
Hon. j. E. Richards ls, because he was
lieutenant governor Of the state of
Pennsylvania from 1882 to 1885. He is
as much entitled to the appellation of
governor as Sanders is to be called a
'colonel' or Power a Commodore" By
the way, has the ~Inter-Mountain dis
covered yet that there isn't any such
thing as the Golden club?

in the western part of the state but he
is the strongest democrat in New York
county, he ia a self made man who has
achieved success in business and in
politics and a more courteous and poll
ished gentleman no one could desire to
meet. Mr.. Flower is able to stand upon
the resolution with both feet" The
Age points out that there are strong
democratic clubs Of colored men, in New
York and Brooklyn, which have been
joined by leading men Of the race and
that it is foolish for the republican
party to ignore the strength of this
combination,

Is often found in the neglect of ones
own self. A light cold or slight head
ache is treated as not requiring much
attention; the assumption being that
they will soon pass of, and it is only
when a case OF full-aedged sickness de-
velops Itself that the consequences of
that neglect are fully realized. AS a
preventive and positive cure for Conghs,
Colds, Hoarseness, Splitting of blood,
Asthma, Pains in the Chest and first

PRESIDENT ERWIN ARRESTED.
Sensational Ending Of Alliance Troubles
in Kentucky.

The Courier Journal of the 3lst ult.
has the following:
"a sensational result has been
reached by the Executive Commit
tee of the Farmers and Laborers'
Union in the Erwin investigation
The Tobacco Growers Association
has triumphed. S. e. Erwin is no
longer President of the State Union ;
neither is he editor of the Kentucky
State Union, the official organ of the
Alliance. He rendered his resigna-
ton from the one and sold the other
yesterday.
Another remarkable turn in the
matter is the fact that after next
weeks issue the official organ will
be abolished by the Farmers Home
Journal. The latter paper will give
the Alliance department, and E..
X. Shuts, of Beaver Dam, has been
appointed as editor. Practically the
Farmers Home Journal becomes the
official organ of the Farmers and
Laborers' Union. r. 7. Gardner, an
ex-Representative Of Carlisle county,
has been promoted from the vice
presidency to the presidency, and
the Farmers ana LabOrerS' Union
has taken the Tobacco Growers AS
ISOLATION under its wing. Mr.. Erwin
is going to Florida tomorrow for his
health. Altogether it is big change,
and will surprise a great many. The
names of the executive committee
are: w. II. Browder, chairman, of
Olmstead, Logan county; II. c..
Brown, secretary, of Clinton, Hick-
man county, and II. j. Doolan, treas
urer, of Finchville, Shelby county"
Mr.. Erwin fought desperately
against this result, threatening to use
his paper and his power as president.
But the committee assured him that
he would be impeached. Mr.. Erwin
based the whole of his action, bring
ing charges of crookedness against
the Kentucky Tobacco Growers Asso
citation on the ground that Mr. Bar
ker, who had been elected a director
some months before the Association
was formed, acting with Others, tried
to buy all the warehouses in Louis
VILE for syndicate.
The committees report gives Err
win credit for faithful, Jealous work
for the organization, eXonerates
him from the charges of being in
fluenced by corrupt motives, rather
crediting his freak to i'll health and
an over taxed brain, and states that
the paper was moved from Bowling
Green to Louisville by orGer of the
committee.
After thorough examination the
committee concluded that Editor
and President Erwin came by hi~
opinion OF "crookedness" honestly,
but he had greatly injured the ware
house association and his removal
was necessary.

Crap Shooting and Poker.

There is a bill before the Legisla-
ture to make crap shooting and po-
ker gaming felony. 1t is very well
to do something to suppress such
crimes, which lead to worse things.
Crap shooting is "nigger" game,
and poker is for the dude, and
the question is, why punish these
poor, perverse creatures so severely
and let the big rascals who rob by
the thousands under the guise of law
go free or with very light punish
ment? Take them all in.

THE LOGGING BUSINESS.
q. O. Lyle's Operations and How the
Bending Works People Get
Their Stocks.

G. G. Lyle was in the city recently
on business with the Bending Works
Company. Mr.. Lyle has the con-
tract for supplying the company
with saw logs, and is keeping some
twenty men and several teams en-
ployed, and then can't keep up.
The company is buying, in addition
to what they get off of their own
land, all good hickory stocks they
can get from the land owners in the
surrounding country. Mr.. Lyle says
getting out logs is no child's play ;
it takes full grown men to do it. He
is putting in from 10000 to 10000
feet per day, but it works him pretty
hard, late and early, and, moreover,
requires good strong teams, The
hardest work is getting big white
oak logs out of sinks and hollows,
timber that has been overlooked and
Stunned all these years, because of
the difficulties in logging it out.
He has paid out $4,000 in expenses
since he commenced, something over
81 900 per month, which has been a
great help to the laboring men Of that
vicinity.
Mr.. Lyle says when he first started
in it looked like an impossible un,
dertaking, and he could not for his
life see how the Bending Works
could succeed at it, but it is very
easily understood now. They are
just coming money, and that is not
all, the concern is doing the country
a heap of good, making something
out of nothing and teaching the peo-
pie what their timber is worth. Mr..
Lyle has several thousand acres
OF land adjoining the Bending Works
land, about one third fine timber,
which he has been trying for several
years to give away, offering it for SO
per acre, but he has now decided that
he will not give it away, as the tim
Der will pay him several times that
amount.
Speaking of the difficulties
in logging, he says Mr.. Me
Kesson had him go into a
sink-hole for large white
oak that looked as if it would cost
more than the lumber in it was worth
to get it out. But he attached a big
rope to it, hitched eight yoke of oxen
to the end of it and drew it out in
little or no time.
He delivers the logs on the river,
where they are RATED and fioated
down to the switch and there loaded
on the cars and shipped to the Bend.
ing Works in the city. This appears
to be very expensive way of getting
stocks to the mill, but Mr.. Shaw
says it is not. The railroad treats
them very cleverly and they get their
stocks here for about $l00 per thou
sand, and the slabs and saWdust are
worth that for fuel in operating the
Bending Works.
