ELLENBoRo, W. Va, Aug. 81.
Yesterday was Republican day
with a big r. at Harrisvilie.
Never before did such a crowd
gather in convention in Richie
county 10 nominate candidates
for three offices. Over oDe
thousand voters were present,
and enthusiasm and harmony
prevailed. Hon. P. w. Morris
and G. L. linn were the only
candidates for House CT Dele
gates, but Mr.. Morris received
nearly two thirds of the conven-
tion's entire vote on the first bal
lot, and his nomination was then
made unanimous. The contest
between d. B. Strickling and s..
NJ. Hoff for county superintend-
ent of free schools was spirited
and it required three ballots to
decide Mr.. strickling a winner.
Mr.. S. j. Taylor was nominated
for county commissioners. Col.
J. Nj. Mckinney made a SPLEEN
did chairman and r W. Ruther.
ford a good Secretary.
If the SO convention is attend
ed as largely in proportion as
the one of yesterday 1t will take
a fifty acre field to hold the crowd.
The Republicans of Richie are
preparing to give Democracy the
rebuke they so richly deserve,
and tho Democrats will be sur
prised atthe thorough manner in
which they will be done up

SEWERS TO BE BUILT
MAYORS CsBINET CONCLUDES TO
FURTHER CONSTRUCT A SYSTEM.
Petitions i'm for Asphalt ON Account
of Low Bids-A Step in Street.
Car Case.

The Mayors cabinet meeting last night
was an informal affair, the members devot-
ing the evening to a general discussion of
the sewer question and talking over plans
for completing the system mapped out by
the expert. The cabinet came to the con-
clusion that 1t will be necessary 90 have
the intercepter that is to connect the Four
teenth-sireet sewer with White river built
at once. together with the Henley. Izor and
Pine-street sewers. The Manchester-street
sewer. which will cause TO be assessed near
ly all the people who were assessed for the
ourteenth-street drain, will not be built
for some time.
A large number of petitions have been
received for asphalt streets on account Of
the low bids recently made on that class
of work. The cabinet talked over these
petitions. but came to no conclusions. DR..
carp, OF the Board of Hearth. gave an ac-
count of his search for the odor which has
tormented the acute nostrils of Green
Smith. He has not been able to definitely
determine the cause of the odor about
which Smith complains.
1t was reported that the cabinet would
consider the matter of asking the next Leg
islature to put the School Board under mu-
nicipal control in order to free that body
OF the rotteHness which has characterized
IL. The cabinet, however, concluded that 1t
would not be proper for 1T to take up the
matter.
Mayor Denny suggested to the members,
before adjournment, that they think over
any amendments to the charter they may
visa 10 suggest. The municipal government
will probably ask some changes Of the Leg
iS-ature which meets this winter.

TREATED BETTER BY CATHOLICS.
Miss Wells Talks Further on the South.
ern Negroes Condition.

Miss Ida b. Wells addressed a large au-
dience, including several white people, at
the Second Baptist Church (~colored) last
mainly on the negro's position in the South,
and said that the laws were generally made
to affect him only, and that the white peo-
pie could do as they pleased. AS examples
she cited the negro's privileges in public
conveyances and at places Of entertain
ment, where, she SAID, he was treated
more like a servant or one OF the lower
animals than a human being. She said her
general observances had led her to believe
that the people of the Catholic religion
treated the negro with more consideration
tions. She cited cases where negroes who
went to a white church not of the Catholic
faith had been elected from the church and
arrested.
1.-The negro does not know he is living in
over seventeen hundred of them have been
murdered. eth er by lynching or otter devil
ish means. Last wear 159 fell victims to
this law:essness. OF these four were wom-
en-. Charges of assault were preferred
against 139, but in many instances the poor,
defenseless men were given no opportunity
of stating their side OF the story. i DO not
believe that the white people will aid great
ly in Kidding the country OF this curse, and,
indeed, | do not think 1t is their place. The
negro race can gain more glory, and honor.
and respect by fighting its own battles. If
correct reports concerning these outrages
were printed the r~ight-minded people could
see the circumstances, but, with the eXcep-
ton of a few. the press makes a stand
against the negro"
Miss Wells will talk at the Second Pres
byterian Church tonight.

JUDGE DAILY'S FLOP
HIS CHANGE OF MIND ON THE
CARRIAGE QUESTION RECALLED.
Some Fear Expressed that He May
See the Stehlin Case Also i'm
Another Light.

The hotel men who are interested in the
garbage question are wondering at the
change of mind in Judge Daily, who is a
candidate for reelection to the Supreme
Bench. AS a member Of the Supreme
Court he wrote a decision affirming the
judgment of the lower court In the garb-
age ordinance, which was in favor of the
validity of the ordinance as commended for
by the city. Then the hotel keepers went
on as before to handle their own garbage
and the garbage company ordered the pri-
vate haulers arrested again. Thomas Tag
CART became a defendant and his attorneys
agreed with the city attorneys and the
company's attorneys that they would let
the case be heard by Judge Daily on the
bench of the Circuit Court in vacation.
This was done, the issues presenting the
same questions as in the first case which.
when carried to the Supreme Court, Judge
Daily had decided in favor of the city
ordinance.
But greatly to the surprise of the city
and company in this case, he reversed the
decision and held for the hotel keepers.
The decision escaped much attention at
the time, coming during the strike in July.
Those who believe in the equity of the
Stehlin liquor case decision in which Judge
Daily held with the majority of the court,
are much concerned lest something should
occur in that case when heard again that
will induce the Judge TO change his opin-
ion.

PATRICK O,DONNELL,s CROWDS.
He Finds Them Much Larger Than I'm
1S92-WOrk in Chicago.


Patrick O'Donnell, the eloquent young
Irish orator, who has been making speeches
for the Republican party in the State, will
return soon to take part in the Chicago
campaign. When asked about his expert
ence this year, compared with that Of 1892.
he said: 81 am taking up the work now
just where it was when the campaign
closed chen. We have as much enthusiasm
now as the end of the canvass showed then.
Do I find Irishmen as strongly Democratic
as ever? BY no means. 1 have not met a
radical Irishman on the Democratic ques-
tion this year, and every day 1 meet sew
eral who tell ne they are done with the
Democratic party. In a few weeks I will be
accompanied in my meetings by a young
Irishman fresh from the Georgetown Col
lege, where 1 have been teaching for the
past year. He is the most eloquent speaker
that ever studied there, and in New York,
where he lived, he was the pet of the DEM
nephew of John Carbon, of your city. My
meetings ave been much larger than in
1892. and the people listen with more eager
interest. The canvass in Chicago takes on
a very great interest this year because Of
the desperate struggle that the Democrats
are making. That party, in Mayor Hopkins,
has the greatest politician that ii has ever
had in. the State, and he has intrenched
himself. he thinks, by catering to the very
worst elements and by INSCRIPTIONS deals
with other eaders. We are going to rout
malign power. We will go right into the
lumber districts, the ship yards, the stock
yards. where no Republican speakers have
ever before penetrated. and we will force
cue of their own dependencies. We are aft
er them hot. and will have the indirect help
of the Civic Federation, which has opened
up a fight to reclaim the city from it's
depths of iniQuity."
