Highbinders, 5000 in number, in

the highbinders, as, with such evil
dence against them as Is now In

binders will be beheaded without
trial.

Ransom denies the story that he
and Senator Gormanihave been in
consultation with a view to having
an extra session of the North Caro-

a democratic senator to succeed

To Retaliate on Germany.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-Attor-
ney General Olney has rendered an
opinion on the question, whether
salt imported from the Empire OF
Germany is dutiable under the new
tariff act,which provides that if salt
is imported from any country which
imposes duty on salt exported
from the United States, then there
shall be levied upon such salt the
rate Of duty existing prior to the
passage of the act. The attorney
general holds that salt imported
from Germany is legally dutiable,
and the same opinion will apply to
beet sugar.

A DENVER SCANDAL.
An Heiress Elopes With an Adven-
turer Who Has Diamonds.

DENVER, Nov. 14.-Clarence w.
Clark, a young adventurer, who
represented himself as the cham
pion cyclist Of the world, owner
OF a $4,000 diamond belt, and a
globe trotter, arrived in the city
Saturday and had an interview
with himself published in which
he said he and the champion BIZ
cyclist, Jack Prince, would attempt
to lower the roller skating record
in Denver. He secured an intro
duction to Miss Gertrude HI.
Hutchins, aged Is, and on Monday
they were married by justice OF
the peace. Their whereabouts
is not known. Miss Hutchins Ia
the daughter of Harry 7. Hut
chius, artist, and niece Of ID. w.
May, owner Of theGilsey, house this
city. Her relatives are prominent
in the east, her grand father being
la commodore in the navy.
Her uncle, John Graham,
| famous criminal lawyer in New
York City, died recently, leaving
part OF his estate to Gertrude. The
police have a theory that Clark
may have had Corbett's diamond
belt, which was stolen in Daven-
port, Ia, and he promised Miss
Hutchins to make the diamonds
into ornaments for her. Clark Is
said to be connected with highly
respectable family in New York.

BUCKEYES ARE RILED.
Lots of Bloodshed Expected Yet
over that Rape Riot.

COLUMBUS, o., Nov. IA re-
markable state of affairs exists in
connection with the inquest at
Washington Courthouse, over the
dead killed by the militia in de-
Tending the rapist Dolby, recently.
Col. Colt refuses to go there to
testify, on the advice Of his attor-
neys, on the ground that plans
have already been made to jail him
and Sheriff Cook there on a charge
of murder, after which friends Of
the dead would lynch both. Gov.
Mckinley has promised Colt pro-
lection, but has no warrant to send
a guard of troops. Colts regiment
has volunteered to goas private
citizens, but in the event of fight
they could be indicted. The situa-
tton is very grave, so much so that
law abiding citizens are complete
ly over-awed by mobs of the de-
tenders, while threats against the
lives Of those defending the mill
tary are not at all infrequent.

Matinee Today and Tonight.

The appearance of Effie Ellsler
in Robert Drouet's play "Doris" at
the Grand Opera House tonight,
November Nth, is an annou nee
ment that will give great satisfac-
ton to her host Of admirers in the
city. Much has been said and
written about the play, and the
general verdict seems greatly in
its favor. Effie Ellsler is firmly
established in the good graces OF
our theatre patrons and it is need
less for us to add, she is in every
way worthy their esteem. Her
acting is forceful, sympathetic, in
many instances brilliant, and
more than all, womanly.

we'll pleased audience rewarded the
artists who have been instrument
tai in bringing the exhibition be-
fore our people. The result will be
that the Art League will be en-
abled to further enlarge its
scope OF usefulness by additions
of casts and other paraphernalia

institution for art and instruction.
The few energetic artists who are
at the head of art affairs In San

bring the matter to successful
issue and finally establish an art
institute in this city, and with the
aid and cooperation of the people
will do so.
While the works of art and the
music forms the chief attraction at
the exhibition, the refresh
ment room, presided over by twelve
young ladies, has proven to be a
useful and needed adjunct.
After the performance at the
Opera house last night, Alba Hey
wood and his entire company Wis.,
tied the exhibition, and the kind
words of appreciation uttered by
the clever young comedian, who is
somewhat noted as an art connois-
seur, would have given a flush of
pleasure to the exhibitors, could
they have heard them.

"nat the feOple are saying.
When a respectable number of
white men have declared them
selves Republicans in anySouthern
state or locality, the Republican
party is a living possibility.
In those states and communities
where no white men or but a
begarly few, espouse the Republi-
can party and depend upon negro
votes, even where they constitute
the voting majority, the party is
unable to do anything and becomes
stencil in the nostrils of every
consistent man.
In certain congressional districts,
notably, Sayers, Grains and Crow
ley's,-the negro vote was depend
ed on to beat the Democratic candi-
dates. Every one of these candi-
dates owe their election to negro
voters.
In this district, Judge Noonan
was elected without the negro vote,
which was divided. That the ne
gro should, in communities like
this, immitate the white voter and
cast his vote for Democratic canal
dates, Is not to be wondered at
the only thing to be settled is that
we have strong negro contingent
voting the Democratic ticket from
choice, ali over the state, and Re-
publican state conventions must
be eliminated of the negro Democ-
racy. The Republican party Of
Texas must be understood to be no
longer purely negro organization.
The negro who is a Democrat at
polls should be treated as Demo-
crat at the convention. The idea
that Republican conventions
should be dominated and con-
trolled by negro mobs who return
from the convention to vote the
Democratic or Populist ticket
ought to brought to an end.
The census plan Of representa-
ton, suggests remedy that is
eminently fair and would solve
the matter. 1t would place the
| white Republicans, undoubtedly in
the control Of the party, it would
secure white representation in our
conventions, and the stigma OF
negro denomination would be re-
moved.
The white Republican movement
has naturally brought down the
ridicule and abuse of the Demo-
cratic press and Democratic poll
ticians, and the negro end of the
Republican party has exceeded in
denunciation and abuse the DEM
ocracy, but out of all this the white
Republican movement will emerge
stronger than ever.
The lesson OF the recent election
is too plain to be unheeded. Let
every genuine Republican in the
state look over this result and find,
II he can, any hope for the Repub-
lIcan party, unless reorganization
is brought about upon basis that
will bring white men to our ranks.
The prospect Of national success,
in '96 will inspire the machine men
to keep the machine in their pos
session-no matter il the party
goes to the dogs.
