HOW MR. WILSON TRAVELS.
He Docs Not Travel In a Palace Car
Like Mckinley

A staff correspondent of the Wheel
ing West Va.) Register is travelling
through Mr.. Wilson's congressional
district writing up the situation, etc.
In one Of his letters he says:
Mr.. Wilson, as benefits man of the
the people, is going from town to
town and from county to county with
out display or ostentation. He trav-
els in common passenger car-often
very common car-taking seat
with the general run of passengers,
puts up at the average county or rail
road town hotel, and takes "pot luck"
as to meals and general accommOda-
tions. Mr.. Mckinley , on the other
hand, is making his campaign tour
for the high tax Repub blican cause In
a manner bef1tting representative OF
the protected manufacturers. Snugly
ensconced in his private car, surround
ed with all the luxurieslof that sort Of
modern railroad travel, with his pri-
vate cook and well stored larder of
the choicest food, he is going from
town to town and city to city with
the case and comfort OF d millionaire.
The contrast Is marked one, and
we'll illustrates the two great oppos-
ing issues in politics today.

The Mt. Airy News has this to say
of the verdict in the Broach trial:
"Probably nine men out Of every ten
who heard the trial were convinced
that Broach killed his wife lat Pilot
Mountain) in cold blood and there is
great Indignation at the verdict.
Men are beginning to say that 1t is
impossible to convict man of muir
der in this county. 1t is said, we do
not know with what truth, that
Broach was not convicted of murder
in the first degree because he had the
delirium tremens and was, therefore,
temporary insane. If this il SO the
verdict is an outrage on society. If
such pleas as that are good all that a
man has to do who wishes to commit
murder and escape the punishment
for that crime is to get drunk, do the
crime and give himself no more con-

LAWLESSNESS RAMPANT.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-The Indian
office has received another telegram
from Agent Wisdom, at Muscogee, I.
T., relating to the troubles expert
enced from lawless men in that sec
tion. He says: 1.-The Cook gang of
outlaws in force is camped at Gibson
Station, eight miles from here, on the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railway.
1t is believed that another ho.d-up is
contemplated. My police force, such
as | can get together. is not equal to
the emergency, and Marshal Ccump, at
Fort Smith, Ark, writes that he has
not money to keep marshalS in the
field for campaign. Affairs here are
in desperate condition; commerce
impeded, business suspended and the
people generally intimidated, and pri-
vate individuals robbed every day and
night l renew my recommendation
and earnestly insist that the govern
ment, through the proper channel,
take the matter in hand and protect
its courts and citizens Of the United
States who are lawfully resident In
the Territory. Licensed traders are
especially suffering, and they are here
under treaty stipulations. This state
of suspense must be broken up, and

This telegram was referred to Secre-
tary Smith, who called the at
tention of Secretary Of War La
mont to his request OF yester-
day, that troops be sent to In
dian Territory and suggested the
urgency of early action as desired by
the government. 1t has been deter

a PISTOL THIEF ARRESTED.
Banks Rudd Tried to Steal a Pistol
From Oyerman 6 Merrimon.

Friday afternoon a negro named
Banks Rudd went into the hardware
store OF Overman & Merrimon. There
being no one near the front of the
store, he proceeded to open show
case where the firearms are kept.
Banks helped himself to the finest
weapon in the lot. In taking the
pistol from the case, it struck against
the corner, thereby attracting the at
tentiOn OF M. Oyerman and his clerk,
who came to the front, and asked the
negro il there was anything he wanted
Rudd replied that he wanted nothing.
The clerk then stepped between the
negro and the door and told him to
give up the pistol, whereupon the
thief made a break for the clerk. Mr..
OveTman then joined in and struck
Rudd with pair OF tongS with such
force as TO break them. The broken
piece struck and broke plate glass
window worth about $25. In the scuf-
tle the pistol dropped from the negros
pocket. He then broke away and ran,

A Breach Of Promise Suit q Sequel to
a Strawberry Festival.

a Strawberry Festival.
BALDWIN's, L. l., October pa
chance meeting at strawberry festi-
val in the Freeport church two years
ago has ripened into a suit for breach
of promise. The plaintiff ls Miss Flu
ella NJ. Meuler, 80 years old, a resident
of this village. William Corning of
Freeport is the man she accuses of
trifiing with her affections. He is "a
years old, and is clerk In brokers'
office in New York. His home is in
Freeport.
At the festival referred to Miss
Meuler is said to have been one Of sew
eral women who sold kisses for fifty
cents each, the proceeds going towards
the church funds. Corning and his
companions, so the story goes, each
invested fifty cents. Miss Meuler was
selected by Corning, and the acquaint-
ance began there was continued until,
according to Miss Meuler, they became
engaged, and October, 1892, was the
date fixed for their wedding.
But the ceremony didn't take place
on the date named, and Miss Meuler
asserts that it was postponed at the
request of Corning. During the sum-
mer Corning's father died, leaving his
son some money. As Corning still de-
] iayed the marriage, Miss Meuler final
ly became convinced that her lover in
| tended to discard her altogether, SO
| she has called on the courts to right
| her wrongs.

A Stokes Republican Predicts I'll is
ElectiOn-A Gard.

A citizen of Stokes county, signing
himself "a True Repu ublican," writes
the following "breezy" card to the
Mt. Airy News:
81 am Ia Republican but / cannot
see how any true Republican can vote
for E. r. VosS for Treasurer OF Stokes
county, for the following reason: 1t is
well known that VOss has done every
thing he could against Sheriff Fulton.
He canvassed the county against him
before the Republican convention was
held. 1t is very likely that Fulton
will be defeated and if he is Voss will
be responsible for it. Voss said if
Fulton was nominated he would spend
81, 900 or have him defeated. Every
Republican in Stokes county knows
that Voss has done everything he
could against Fulton. My advice to
every Republican is to knife e. r..
Voss and vote for I. 6. Ross, who is a
good man and worthy of the support
of every good citizen OF Stokes county.
1t is how d we'll known fact that Voss
has defeated Fulton. Let Voss 60

Good Democratic news comes from
Stokes county.
1t is said that Mr.. w. w. King, can
didate for the House, has made Wig
orous and vote-winning canvass.
Republicans also admit that Mr..
Graham got the best Of Settle in their
joint debate last Monday.
Nearly all of the Populists repudi-
ate the deal turning them over to the
Republicans and will vote the
straight Democratic ticket. and a
number Of Republicans have express
ed their intention to vote for the
Democratic candidate. They will not
countenance ''co-operation'' just to
serve the purposes OF Holton and But
ler at the expense OF principle.
The Reporter makes the announce
ment that all but two of the Populist
candidates have Withdrawn in favor
OF the Democratic ticket. The two
candidates still in the field are A. J.

they are expected to come down, as
both have been good Democrats.
RETURNING HOME
The following cards, published in

candidates explain themselves:
WALNUT COVE, Oct, 19.-You will
please make it known that 1 am not
a candidate on the Populist ticket for
the Office for which [ was nominated
sometime ago and that | am going to
support the Democratic ticket. The
Third party is getting too close to
the Republican party to suit me. A
Republican approached me this
morning and stated that the Re-
publicans and Populists were all one
now, and that without the aid OF the
POpullst vote the Republicans could
do nothing, etc. This satisfied me
that the Republicans wanted to use us
as tools to get into oflice on.
