A VERY SERIOUS NATTER
POWERS OF U. 8. hARSHAI-S
AT THE POLLS
The 4. y Acting Attorney General
saws NIarshals Have Duties at
All Voting Places - Arkansas
state Officials Deny This,

WASHINGTON. Nov. 4.-Acting Attor-
ney General Aldrich has made an impor-
tant statement with reference to the
authority of the United States deputy
marshals to supervise elections. In this
statement he announces that all persons
who attempt to interfere with these Off
GERS bring themselves within scope Of the
criminal statutes of the United States re-
gardless of whether or not they act TIN
der any state or municipal statutes. He
tsays that in view Of these statutes it is
not thought that any person or combi'
nation of persons will seek in any way
to interfere with marshals in the dis
charge of their duties, but that any such
interference will be vigorously prose
cuted.
The statement begins by saying that
the attention of the department of JUS
tice has been called to certain alleged in
structions to police and state officers in
Alabama, Arkansas and New York with
reference to their conduct towards dep
uty United States marshals at the polls.
Mr.. Aldrichs statement declares that
marshals are there as peace officers, that
they have the right to summon the sEer-
ifs posse comitatus to assist them, and
also to call upon all organized military
bodies for the Same purpose; that the al
legged instructions issued in New York,
Arkansas. and Alabama, bring the state
officers issuing them under the provis-
ions of the United States laws as to con-
spracy to obstruct, and that the United
States mdrshals' instructions are not to
allow discrimination for or against any
party, but to secure IAN honest ballot
and fair count" 1t denies the doc
trinc of the supremacv'ot the states over
the United States in this matter OF
elections and says that the I'M
preston that the federal government
"is foreign power" should be obliter-
atcd. Mr., Aldrch says that the state
ment that section 2O21 is the only sec.
ton authorizing the appointment oi
deputy marshals. and therefore that
such appointments can be made only III

ney General or himself, nor has such view
been held by any preceding attorney
general.
With reference to the question whether
deputy marshals have the right to bt
within the guard rail of polling places
it is said, this has been answered in thu
Attorney Generals circular Of October
81 last and the statutes arc SO clear anc
explicit that no room is seen for discus
sion. The statement concludes:
! THE laws must be enforced. Marshal:
are warned, undr penalties of the law
against any interference with the right
of citizens and at the same time they vii
guard and protect such rights at what
ever cost"
Instructions in accordance with thes
views will be sent to United States mar
= shals in all parts of the country.

ASIKE:VII.I.E CLIMATE.
Papers tobe Read BE fore medical
Societies North.

DR.. Karl Won Ruck, who has recently
spent some time in New York, Boston
and Philadelphia on business and ad-
vertising trip, is preparing to leave
Asheville next week for another trip,
embracing such cities as Cincinnati,
Chicago, Columbus, Detroit, Toledo and
St. Louis.
While in these Northern cities named
DR.. Won Ruck talked Ashevillc to medical
men generally, and no doubt with good
results. He made arrangements for the
reading of paper on Ashevillc climate
before medical society in each city. by
some prominent physician. A paper OF this
kind was read on Monday last before the
Academy of Medical Science in New York
In Boston the paper will be read tomor-
row before the Boston Medical Library
association, and in Philadelphia before
the Medical society, some time this
month.
The object of DR.. Won Ruck's next
weeks trip is to make arrangements i'll
the cities named for the presentation OF
papers on Ashevile. The effect of these
will be much better when read by some
member of the local society, who is en-
tircly disintcrcstcd.
DR.. Won Ruck says he found among the
eminent consulting physicians North, a
prejudice towards Ashevillc on account
of its sanitary condition. They say this
city has not proper sanitation and that
on that account they do not care to send
their patients here. DR.. Won Ruck made
it his especial task to remove this pre-
judicc as far as possible. He told the
medical men that Ashcvlle now had a
Board of Health, and although its ju-
risdiction is limited, it is doing good
work and will rs its powers are eX-
banded do mdcl towards making
Asheville what it should be, model
health resort in every respect.
DR.. Won Ruck is very sanguine over the
outlook for this winter. He believes
there will be an increased number o
winter visitors, having received assur
anccs from the physicians with whom
he consulted to warrant him in the be

An Irish society Issues
AN Appeal.

NEW YORK, Nov. AT recent meet
ing of the Irish.Amcrican Cleveland
protective league, a change of political
front was determined upon, involving
the dissolution of the league under its

wherefore OF its radical change, and the
result is an address to lrish-American
voters signed by John Dcvoy, James
Clancy, Michael Breslin, James Flynn, l..

have all a personal and financial interest

The address closes with an appeal to
Irish Americans, to cast their votes for
Cleveland and Stevenson.

of Mrs. Elizabeth U. Coles who died be-

bequeathed to charitable and religious
organizations, a portion to some of her
relatives and $4,000 to the children ot
her brother Edward Cole, while he was
ignored. Edward Coles contested the
will on the grounds that his sister was
not of sound mind at the time she made
her will. In support of this claim there
were produced a number of household
servants who had been in the employ o
Mrs. Coles and they testified with great
unanity that she was exceedingly misery

anything that Wall street does not
want. But if our neighbor means
the national greenback currency, the
conditions will be changed. Wall
street wants TO furnish the people
with all the currency-national bank
currency-and in that Mr.. Cleveland
will be with Wall street it is certain.
He is just as certain to veto a free
silver bill as he is going to do nothing
against the interests of the national
banking monopoly. If we have State
banks under Mr.. Cleveland's govern
ment, Wall street will as certainly
own and control them as Wall street

nearly every assembly when he told
an audience on Sunday night:
/" Many man among you would
be glad to go into Wall street and
get rich by just such methods as did
Could"
And yet the Professor had just
told his hearers that, 'plainly speak
ing, he used official positions to de-
fraud those who had especially
trusted him. He robbed not only
the investor but society which made
him the repository of its economic
power"
This judgment, though true, is
but half the truth. While there are
many who would be glad to gain
wealth by the methods which Gould
employed, there is a large and in
creasing number of men who would
rather 60 without riches than to get
them in such way.
The standard of business ethics
and morality is higher than it was
when Gould and Fisk were plunder-
ing Erie, just as the standard Of
political and judicial honor is higher
than it was in the days Of Tweed
and Barnard. Mr.. Gould himself
conformed TO the better tendency of
the time in his later years. From
Wrecker of railroads he became the
conservator of railway property. 1t
is now some years since he was sus-
pected Of wish to Gown a Judge"
He has not recently bought legisla-
lures. The gaining Of his goal-the
accumulation of a colossal fortune
no doubt tends to make him con-
sentative. But there can be no
doubt that he changed his methods
with the changing times.
The ability of Mr.. Gould has been
overestimated. He was a forceful
man of very narrow range. He
never projected a great constructive
enterprise. He conceived no great
idea. He executed no great plan.
What he did, at his best, was to
carry forward that which other men
had projected-to take advantage of
the pecuniary weakness of inventive
or constructive men and make their
conceptions his gain. He reaped
where he had not sowed and gath
cred where others had planted.
No man of wealth and promi-
hence ever had SO much wholesome
truth told about him at his death as
has been spoken Of Jay Gould since
Friday. 1t has not been done in
wantonness or unkindness. Few
men in the press, the pulpit or in in
situations of learning had any reason
to bear the dead millionaire malice.
They have simply felt that it was a
time to speak plainly. One of the
worst and most pernicious examples
ever set before the young men of
this country had been been removed.
The public teachers thought, and
thought rightly, that the glamor
should be stripped from this career
of sordid money getting, and that
the, character Of the man and his
deeds should be plainly stated.
All that succeeds is not success.
Measured by any high or worthy
standard the career of Jay Gould
was failure. He will be remem-
bered chiefly as a warning. Will

The Ark had been out Of sight Of

was getting monotonous.
"How does she head ?" Said Noah
to Shem, who had just come off

"Sou'west by west, a little. west"

ed his quid and resumed his examin-
alton of the chart.

"Well, his defence was that Abel

Ham felt the rebuke. There was
an awkward pause. Presently there
was disturbance in the cattle de-
partment.
"Sounds to me as if the bull was
making trouble" said Ham. ''And
speaking of bulls reminds me of a
friend of mine who undertook to

set it to music, the bull belonged to
his brother n-law; you needn't tell
it,"
Ham subsidized again.
"Seems to me, Ham, said Noah
looking up from the chart, you're a
kind of an ass"
"Ha! hap said Ham, good ma
turedly, laughing at his own expense.
"Bat that reminds me of what a
man down in Mesopotamia said to a
fellow who was Dragging about a

"Never mind what he said, inter

the mule and the buzzards and the
whole business. Methuselah used to
play marbles in his youth with the
man who made the remark about
the buzzards, and he told the story
twice week for 900 years"
"Well," said Ham, Il think this is
rather rough on man who is doing
as well as he can. I don't pretend
that these stories are new, but we've
been so long at sea with no company

They are liable to breed disease and
get IFS quarantined."
Silence ensued for some time. AT
length Shem said, "To-morrow being
Friday, suppose we shall have fish
for breakfast"

minds me of farmer friend of mine
who went to a hotel on his wedding
tour and struck a Goldfish cake"
"Merciful heavens p cried Noah,
rising to his feet; have we got to
listen to these chestnuts all night ?
The man who found something dead
in the bread was the prehistoric man
himself. Adam found the story
written in hieroglyphlcs in the ante
room Of a BEARS cave. Ham, if you
don't shut up I'll throw you out of
the w1ndow!''
Ham was angry, but he took the
hint. Weeks afterward, as the
family were going ashore at Ararat,
Noah said, "Ham, where are you 60
ing to locate ?"
Raising his hand solemnly, Ham
answered, 81 am going to North
America, and shall tell those four
stories to somebody who will listen
to them if | have to wait five thou
sand years"
Sure enough, Ham came up from
Georgia and told these stories in
Tammany Hall Thursday night.
There has always been some doubt
in theological circles precisely what
Noah "cussed" Ham for. II he told
the stories in the ark that he did in
Tammany Hall the mystery is solved.
