GENERAL WEAVER AT PORTLAND


He Says the Fight IL Between tho Peo-
pies Party and the Democrats.
PORTLAND, Aug. l2.-General James B.
Weaver, the Peoples party nominee for
president, arrived here from San Fran
cisco this morning. Weaver is accompa-
MED by a small party, consisting of his
wife, Mrs. Lease, V. o. Strickler and G. o.
Stricken, representing the national COM
mittee. The general upon arrival held a
conference with the Oregon leaders. who
informed him that Oregon would send
Peoples party men to the electoral col
lege without doubt. In an interview the
General said he was sure Of election. A
wonderful change had taken place in the
last two weeks in the political sit
nation. By virtue of this change the Re-
publican party has been eliminated from
the race and the battle lies be-
tween the Peoples party and the Demo-
Gratis and the former has every advantage.
The Peoples party will carry the solid
South and the entire West In 1880 the
Republicans lost nine states, which they
cannot regain. 1t is doubtful If the cleo
ton will be thrown into the House of Rep
resentatives.
The general further said: 1--WE have
been asked to divide our electors with the
Democrats, but have refused. We are in
this campaign to win" This afternoon
General Weaver and Mrs. Lease addressed
about 1000 people at the plaza. Tonight
another open-air meeting was held at the
plaza, at which General Weaver, Mrs.
Lease and others made addresses. The
party will remain in the city till tomorrow,
when they 60 to Tacoma and Seattle.

MISS BORDEN IN JAIL.
Tho Police Claim to Have tho Hatche
With Which She Killed Her Parents.

Tho Police Claim to Have tho Ratchet
With Which She Killed Her Parents.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. l2.-LIzzie c..
Borden was arraigned in the aistrict
court this morning. charged with killing
her father and step-mother. The prisoner
pleaded not guilty to the charge, ana Mon
day, August %. was set for the trial. Miss
Borden was committed without bait.
The prisoner was taken to Taunton this
evening and locked up. There is strong
rumor this evening that the police have
procured the Ratchet with which the
crime was committed. The prosecution
are in possession of peculiar hatcflet. and
the rumor that this particular hatcbet was
used is greatly strengthened by the
strong wording OF City Marshal HEiliard's
complaint, published today. No aatchet
like the one in custody can be found in the
local hardware stores. It is said the great
EFT proof is a claw ON the side nearest the
handle, and that the head of the Ratchet
fits into the murderous wounds in Mrs.
Borden's head. Tonight Marshall uilliard
said there was a great deal to be proven be-
fore the crime could be finally fastened
upon Miss Borden. Much haa been
learned, but for all that he could gee the
trial would be long and tedious.

THE SOUTH CAROLINA CAMPAIGN
Lively Incident ut . Debate Between
Governor Tillman and Conservative.

Governor Tillman and o Conservative.
Columbia, s. c., Special
The most exciting episode of the state cam.
paign occurred today at Union. Governor Till.
man and Colonel Orr, the Conservative candi-
date for lieutenant governor, were engaged in
debate. In his speech, Governor Tillman asked
Colonel Orr for his authority in saying that
preacher had said that he (rillman) fiaunted
his profanity in public. Colonel Orr replied
that he did not divulge private conversations,
and added that Governor Tillman knew the
statement was true, as he could ascertain by
appealing to the preachers in general. The
governor said that sometimes an oath slipped
out. but that 1t had done so on only one oc-
caslon during the campaign, and he appealed
to the ladies present to signify If. in their opin.
ion, they considered him q ackgUard"
There was no response, and the governor then
said that Colonel Orr or any other man who
said he Haunted HIS profanity In public lied.
Colonel Orr advanced to the governor and
catching him by the arm wheeled him around
and asked him If he was trying to raise per-
sonal difficulty. Tillman replied that he was
not and Orr shook his finger in his face and
told him he could not intimate that he lied
without having it thrown back in his teeth.
He told him further that Tillman had boosted
of being "God Almighty's gentleman" The
governor replied SO he had, and Orr said: "He
did not do Himself credit when He made you. /"
him If he meant to intimate that he was liar.
The governor said that If Orr did not origi-
nate the statement his remark did not apply
to him. By this time the crowd had become
almost q mob. People climbed up on the
stand, men pulled of their coats. swOre like
troopers, and gathered around the two men. 1t
looked as though blood was to be shed. Colonel
Orr then told Tillman that no had repeatedly
used curses on the stand. The governor said ne
had done it only once, and he would leave the
decision to Ex-Governor Sheppard.
The latter, however, had nothing to say. The
excitement by this time was intense. Colonel
Orr again caught hold Of Tillman, who had
turned his head toward the crowd in front, and
told him If he wanted fight he could get it.
The governor said he did not, and Colonel Orr
went back to his seat remarking that Tillman
must let him alone. The governor turned to
the crowd and said no living man could bull
dozs him. After great difficulty the crowd was
Quieted.
