A Plea for Garrett and Wilson.

To the E iitor of the Republican.
On the behalf of my friends and
the best interests of our county |
desire to speak.
All good, loyal citizens are soli-
citous in regard to our countY's pro-
gress and development and to bring
this about home industry must be
encouraged and business enterprises
pushed ahead. To accomplish this
more capital must be invested and
more men must be employed-at
good wages too. The laboring class
constitute the larger part of our
population; hence if they get en-
ployment at fair wages they can
wear better clothes, have more to
eat, provide comfortable homes for
their families and even indulge in
some of the luxuries of life, conse-
quently the manufacturer COM
mands better price for his pro-
duct, the merchant larger per
cent. on his goods and the farmer
finds ready market for his beef or
mutton or potatoes or whatever he
has to sell, and he disposes of it at
good price too.
TO govern, control and protect
these things we need just and wise
legislation then the paramount
question should be, who will best
represent us in our law-making
bodies +?
The Sixth Congressional District
will soon be called upon to select a
man to represent us in the halls of
Congress. Fellow citizens of Gar
rett, it is unquestionablY our turn
now to furnish that important per-
sonage. The other counties of the
District have heretofore been sup
plying the demand in that direction,
therefore for this and the following
reasons let us assert our rights.
Garrett is by no means the smallest
county in the State, either as to
area or population, besides the rate
of increase in population is greater
than any other county IN the Statel
Our hardy citizens have been fast
surmounting the difficulties of the
past. The present Democratic |
good times is the most trying ordeal
of which we have yet had to under
go, bat Protection's star will soon
reappear-the signs for it are
Standardization that will be
the controlling power and Garrett
will march on to the front. Gar
rett county is solidly Republican
and has been Loyalty supporting the
from our sister counties
heretofore. Now, therefore ye

a PROPER VERDICT.
The Jury Gives Miss Pollard a Judg-
rnent for Sic, 900.
WASHINGTON. D. c. Anril15-

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 10
The jury in the Pollard-Breckin-
ridge case, after being closeted for
one hour and twenty eight minutes
Saturday afternoon. returned a
verdict of $4,000 for the plaintiff.
Colonel Breckenridge himself
rose to make a motion for a new
trial, and the court then adjourned.
There was a wild rush for the
court room about 5:25 o'clock when
the report got out that the jury had
come in. Judge Bradley and the
jury entered at one door, Colonel
Breckenridge, his son and Colonel
Phil Thompson at the other.
There was some delay in waiting
for the other parties. Everyone
knew the jury had not come in for
instructions, because they carried
their coats and hats.
There was an intense silence.
During the interval, the jurors sat
looking solemn as the proyerbial
judges, while Colonel Thompson
and the gray-halred defendant con-
ferred in whispers. Five minutes
passed before Attorney Calderop
Carlisle, representing Miss Pollard,
entered. Judge Bradley requested
the people to refrain from demon
strations. Then the verdict was
announced, There was no express
sion Of approval or disapproval
from the crowd.
The jury took fifteen ballots
before reaching their conclusion.
The difference was mainly over the
amount Of damages to be granted,
and there was but one man on the
jury who favored the defendant.
On the first ballot one juror voted
for the defense and hung out for a
long time, but his colleagues
thought that he did it more for the
sake Of argument than because he
was strongly in favor OF Colonel
Breckenridge. Anumber Of ballots
were required to reach a compro.
mise OH the amount of damages tc
be awarded. Two or three jurors
wanted to give the full amount o.
$50, 600, while others thought thai
merely nominal damages woulo
serve to express their opinion thai
the Congressman had treated Miss
Pollard shabbilY.
Colonel Breckenridge was very
cool after the verdict had been ren
dered. lie walked away with his
counsel, talking with them, but de
clined to speak at that time fol
publication, as did his attorneys.
Miss Pollard was somewhat excit
ed, but not hysterical, while await
ing the result, and, as a woman
always does, broke into tears wher
she heard it, She declined to be
interviewed and her attorneys SAID
that she was anxious to efface her
self from the public sight as far as
possible, now that the case had
ended.

WITH an unexpected disregard
for the quips and jeers Of those who
protested against following the ex-
ample Of Thomas B. Reed, when he
was speaker Of the House, the DOM
inant party has at last resolved that
quorum counting shall be INDUCED
in whenever such arithmetic is nee
essary. The Democrats of the
House Of Representatives are sub
jects for congratulation on their
arrival at such a conclusion. For
the entire weight of logic and com
mon sense is opposed to the conten-
tion that a member can at the same
time be present for obstructive pur-
poses and absent as a legislator.
When it was first suggested that the
Fifty-third Congress would do
wisely if it adopted in general the
rules and methods of the Fifty-frst
there was practical unanimity of
Democratic dissent, but every days
experience was testimony to the
reasonable character of the sugges-
ton. The Democratic quorum
counter differs somewhat from the
rule which worked so successfully
in the Flfty-first Congress, in that
the counting will be done by some
other member or officer than the
Speaker. But this is merely a dis
tinction without difference and
will be useful only because it may
reconcile some of those VINO are
stubbornly opposed to anything that
savors of what has been termed
"Czarism. !" Yet the matter is
regarded as somewhat of personal
victory for Reed, and Democrats
have joined in good-natured con-
gratulations, Bourke Cochran re-
marking that Mr.. Reed was no lon
ger the original and only czar, as
the Democrats had decided to be
czars. The Importance of the rem
edy is, however above partizanism.
The people of the United States
desire that the House of Represen-
tatives, being elected to leglslate,
shall be able to do the business for
which it is chosen; and shall not be
by few obstructionists to
a pltiful exhibition of chow not tc
do it,

The large number of men now

seem to mark the present time as
inopportune for a strike, but the

WI. HARRISON ARRESTED.
Information Filed Charging him with
the Murder Of lipshitZ

Information was fl ed before jus
tice Gallagher yesterday by one,
VIM. Fife, charging William Har-
rison with the murder of l.. Lip.
shi,z A warrant was issu-d and
Harrison was arrested hv Sner. Fl
Burke, accompanied by Officer Sam
Hall and Deputy Sheriff 5 g. ard.
Harrison lives on BelI's hill, near
Twenty.Second strs ct. He is a
young white man, has a wife and
one child. His occupation is th4t
OF a barber, and he formerly woi :
ken i a shop on Bridge street.
Something of sensation was
causei when it became known that
another arrest had been made. a
week having passed since the muir
der it was thought, and justly, that
arrests would not be made without
some deiiberation, and that no man
would be subjected to the ordeal
unless some pretty strong evidence
was adductble to connect him with
the or me.
WHAT the evidence against Harri
son is the Off GERS refuse to divulge,
but enough has been let fall by them
to show that, while they thought it
their duty to make the arrest, they
have little confidence in their aoil
ity to make case against him.
1t was stated to The NAws re
porter this Afternoon that the com
plant against Harrison was the
result of qaarrel between him
aud the complaining witness, who
formerly occupied the same house
with him.
Meantime Mrs. Lipshitz is grow
ing better, and her recovery Is fea
son4ble cerlaln. Sac is entirely
rational and takes note OF every
thing that goes on about her. Sac
does not know of her husband +
death, BENZ told that he has gone
away for treatment for the hurts ne
received.
she mas made sevreal staten snts
concerning her recollections of the
occurrences of that fatal Friday
night, but could recall little or
nothing that would seem to furnish
a clue.
On Thursday, when quest oned i,
she said that she and her hue b and
heard noise, and thinking it was
a customer come to buy something,
ne got up aad went to the door.
When the burglars attacked him she
screamed and was Immediately
struck as she lay in bed. Further
than this she had no recollection.
she thought the man who struck
aer had something over his face, but
could not tell whether he was bac k
,r white. Yesterday she stated tn at
the man who struck her was a WI lite
nan aud a young man.
The striped cap found in the
room where the murdered man lay,
snd which it was thought might
furnish clue, she says belonged
TO her husband. AS the night was
sold: he evidently put it on his
DEAD when he got up to go to the
ioor, and in his hurry put it on
aind part before, as the hole in it
would indicate.
The officers are alert and vigilant,
and the community may est assured
that they will make every posslbl !,
t fort TO bring the perpetrators Of
!he terrible crime to justice.

AN ADDRESS
Nv the Board OF Directors Of the Waco
Commercial Club.

To evory Citizen Of every Vocation n Waco;
ODeying the commands gwen Us
at largely attended representa-
tive meeting of the business inter
ests Of Waco, on three very recent
occasions, which commands were as
follow:
"R-solved, That the directors of
the Waco Commercial club be in
struct.d to proceed with the Cotton
Palace move ment, and we pledge
our most hearty financial aud per
sonal support" This resolution was
unanimously passed after the impo'-
lance, the advantages, cost, desn a.
bility and jectlons were freely
discussed by what we concede was q
representative body of the business
interests of Waco. Complying with
these commands, we sug 5est, that:
/. 1t goes without saying that a
live man or live town will attract
attention, invite capital, when the
converse will not accomplish any
thing. Men Of money hold out a
hand from disposition to axe the
hand of an enterprising, live man
or town.
9. We believe that Waco will re.
ceive manifold returns for every
dollar she invests in this undertak
ing-the Cotton Palace.
8. We have appointed commit
tee representing every trade and vc-
cation, as class, in Waco. We
have pro.rated the amount required
and Needed, in our judgement, as
best we could, to be raised from the
bankers, from the dry goods men,
from the grocers, from the lumber
men, from tue druggists, and 80 on
from every profession and vocation.
4. The amount asked for is not a
bonus, but subsoript on OF stock
payable on a basis of 10 per cent
per month, within the reach of all.
s. Az soon as sufficient amount
of capital stook is subscribed, the
subscribers to this stock will be
called to meet and elect their own
eff ,ers, procure charter and pro.
coed in business way in this move
ment.
The Cotton Palace movement, to
our minds, has crystalizsd publ,
opinion, and if we can move, place
the responsibility and gather the
necessary money from those to bt
benefited, there will break upon
Waco a new era and be a grano
memento to accelerate Waco on the
high road to success.
Yours truly,

both are a necessity. The j. Hansel

BRIT Wood is spending his vacation
will friends in the city. He expects
TO return To his old position as
principal of the Hayward schools.
Brit has bit of experience in his
early history that is fixed indelibly
upon the tablet of his memory, but
an incident that he would not like To
have repeated. Seventeen years ago,
he and Bonnie Scribner and Wellesley
Vannatta, boys of nine or ten years of
age, were playing around an open
shaft or shute on the bank of the
river opposite the Junction mills. 1t
will be remembered that a Mr.. Hale
had established wool carding mill
here and to run the machinery shaft
was used from the river enclosed in a
vertical box. At the time of the in
cident referred TO the machinery was
not in use and the box, a long per-
pendicular tube, twenty inches square
and made of thick oak planks and
forty-two feet and eight inches long
was open at the top. The children
were playing about the open shaft
when by some inadvertency of boy
hood Brit fell head foremost into the
shaft and went TO the bottom. I'm
mediate cutlery was made by mis- COM
panions and CONSERVATION with the
gravest fears followed. An attempt
was made to cut through the solid oak
planks as soon as help could be pro-
cured and in the mean time man
was let down the shaft by a rope to
attempt a rescue by this method.
The confined area prevented any
bending of the body but by slipping
one foot past that of the boy he was
enabled to grasp his foot, and holding
this with one hand and the rope with
the other both were hauled to the top.
1t was not thought possible that one
could fall headforemost down this
shaft in the shallow water with rock
bottom and survive the shock. Brit,
though unconscious, was not severely
injured. And the explanation of his
fortunate escape from death was eX-
planned the next day when his father
sawed open the box near the base.
Sticks had been thrown down at
different times which lodged at the
bottom, stood leaning against the
sides and 10y intercrossing had caught
the boys head and shoulders, prevent
ing his striking the rock, or going
into the water except just far enough
to wet the top of his head by its cool
ing influence. He was at the bottom
about twenty minutes.
