released that she might prepare
his dinner. He then rushed out
and came back with two boiled eggs and
asked for plate. After eating these he

KoscIUsKo's TRAGEDY.
RatlifT's Paper Gives a New Version
Of the Fatal Encounter.

New Orleans, La, March 9.-The Plea
yune's Kosciusko special says: The
Alliance Vindicator to-day, published an
account of the killing of Samuel A. Jack
son by w. P Ratlih, editor of the Vindi-
Gator, in which, after stating that
its first publication was in a spirit
of levity, it says; They met in
the court house, clinched, but were
soon separated. Eye witnesses say that
Ratliff got jackson down, and after they
were parted jackson drew his revolver
and attempted to shoot. Following this,
Ratliffe got his pistol out, but was showed
out of the street door of the court house
by the officials. jackson then snOt out of
the door at Ratliff, who was in custody
of the sheriff, and then Ratliff returned
the fire. The door was then closed be-
tween them. Sheriff Love and Deputy
A. n. Love took Ratliff by each arm and
were carrying him away, a prisoner
from the scene, when jackson pulled
loose from his captor and went out of the
west door of the court house and then
rapidly pursued and advancing upon
Ratlitf while in the custody of the sheriff,
and whose back was turned to him, Jack
son hallowed to the sheriff to look out
and began shooting The deputy sheriff
started toward him but had to fall down
to keep from getting shot by Jackson.
The sheriff turned Ratliff loose at
this juncture and got out of
the way. Ratcliff stood facing jackson.
AS Jackson approached he fired the first
shot at Ratcliff While firing the second
time Ratcliff returned the shot. The pre-
vailing opinion is that four shots were
fired after jackson came out of the court
house, two from each pistol One ball
grazed Jackson's arm, the other going
through lis head. jackson looked to be
very much excited, which perhaps &C
counts for Ratcliff not being hurt"

A HARD BLOW AT THEPoPUL1srs
Alabama Electors Received Money
= and Were to Vote for Harrison.


: and Were to Vote for Harrison.
Memphis, Tenn, March "a special TO
the Commercial from Birmingham, Ala,
says: The biggest sensation of the Ala
bama campaign has just been sprung
Some time ago, the Alliance Herald
the organ of the Kolbites, began a war
fare on Ben Delemos, secretary of
the state republican campaign COM
mltJee. In reply Delemos published
a card In several democratic papers
threatening to make the public vouchers
which would show that money was paid
by MN for the national republican com
mlILee Two years ago 10 certain holbite
ana popullst leaders, whereby the Weaver
electoral ticket, which was supported
by these two parties, if elected, was
to vote for Harrison, if Alabama s
vote was needed to insure Harrison's
election. The Alliance-Herald bitterly
denied this charge. Now the GreenYlle
Living Truth, q straightout populist
paper edited by J. NJ. Whitehead, probate
Judge OF Butler county, who was on the
Weaver electoral ticket, but who has
since given Kolb the shake, the result of
break between him and the kolbites,
comes out with lengthy publication ex-
posing the deal.
DELEAIos' STORY VERIFIED.
''Among other things it says: Now it
happens that the editor of this paper was
one of the electors of the state at large,
and he desires nothing but the truth.
Ben DelemOs has told the truth, aud the
Alliance Herald is singularly ignorant if
1t don't know it. After the Lake
View convention, the KoIbite electors
were summoned to Birmingham by Col. B.
{. Bowman, chairman of the Kolb
committee. Most of them responded and
at Birmingham, in Col. Bowman's Office
IN the presence of Capt. Kolb the elect
ors signed an agreement that had
been written out by Col. Bowman,
or under his direction, and presented
to them by him, by which
they obligated themselves in writing to
vote Tor Harrison in the electoral college,
II 1t should be apparent at the time that
Weaver could not be elected. The editor
of the paper signed it voluntarily as one
of the electors
"Whitehead's paper avoids mentioning
anything about the money condition by
which the deal is alleged to have been
made, but Delemos declares he has the
voucherswhich show howmuch money was
paid and who got it. The effect of the
exposure will be a stunning blow to the
holblte-Populist combine. Democratic
leaders believe that this in itself is suffici-
ent to defeat Kolb for governor"

ceed Capt. E. S. Parker, of Graham,
Alamance county. 1t is presumed that
CAPTAIN Parker will be renominated by
acclamation, as no opposition to him has
yet developed and there are no other
candidates in the field.
The only candidate for the democratic
nomination in this, the Fifth district, is
A. w. Graham, of Oxford. Mr. Graham
has many friends in the district and is
regarded as an able, conservative man.
1t was said at one tine that Col. John r.
Webster, of Rockingham, would be a
candidate, but that has been shown to be
untrue. Mr.. Graham's will probably be
the only name offered before the conven-
tion.
The democratic state convention meets
in Raleigh on Wednesday. The princi-
pal business before this convention is
the nomination of candidates for the
iudgeship in the superior and supreme
courts. Chief Justice Shepherd will pro-
badly be renUminated There is some
doubt as to the personnel of the nomi-
nees for the associate justiceships. Jus
tice Avery is the only man on the su
preme court bench whose term does not
expire Judge Clark should be renomi
mated, but a great many Of the "straight
Ous' are inclined to impugn his democ,
racy on account of the endorsement of
the third party. Perhaps all the asso-
ciate justices will be renominated.

an agreement had been reached by the

that sugar schedule has been agreed

copferees as follows:
Forty per cent al valorem on all raw
sugar, and the same amount on all refined
sugar, the duty to be collected, however,
on the basis of the saCCharine strength.
