In Henderson,s District.

RALEIGH, n. c., July 5.-The Re-
publican district executive COM
Hnittee of the Seventh North Caro-
lima congressional district has
called a convention to meet at
Statesville today. This is the dis.
trict now represented by Hon. John
S. Henderson. His opponent to be
nominated by this convention, will
probably be ex-State Senator Zeb
Vance Washer, one Of the most
prominent young Republicans of
the state. The Populists are es-
peCially we'll off in timber in that
district and will probably put up
put up their strongest man. The
chances, however, are greatly in
favor of the election Of Congress
man Henderson, who is also prom
inently mentioned in connection
with the United States senatorship
for the short term to succeed the
late Senator Vance.

We have profound respect for the
printer who set up, "Fat turkey,

read, "Fast turkey red damask."
If he hadn't put the comma after

anything at all. We always re-

IF 1T COMES
TO SAN ANTONIO WHAT THE PULL
MAN BOYCOTT WILL DO HERE.
Will The Up Street Car Traffic, Shut
Down Ice Factories and Breweries
within a Weeks Time-Trains
Thus Far on Time.

The Pullman boycott is matter
Of serious discussion in San Anto-
MO today. The downtown rail-
road officials seem to pay little
attention to the matter, while
men around the depots
look at it in a grav-
er light. Last Sunday it was
anticipated that today the local
railroaders would join in the boy
colt against the Pullman company
and that Thursday was the day
set for the men in this
city to quit work. 1t is
rumored that by twelve o'clock
tonight all the local roads will be
tied up. Railroad officials, how
ever, say there is no word of truth
in it and that most friendly feel
ing is prevailing between the en-
ployes and the railroads. The en-
ployes, as is well known,
have no grievances against the
railroad companies, but are in
sympathy with the boycotters,
and if they do walk out it will be
solely for the purpose of boycotting
the Pullman Palace Car company.
In this event it means that both
the Southern Pacific and the Inter-
national and Great Northern will
be tied up as well as paaenger
traffic will be entirely suspended
in San Antonio.
A reporter for the LIGHT learned
this morning from what is con-
sidered a reliable source that
should freight traffic be
suspended in San AntO-
Mo beginning today, five
days hence the people of
this city would have to content
themselves with warm water; the
ice supply would be exhausted.
With the coal on hand the street
cars would not run a week, the
breweries would have to shut down
in that time and business would
be at a standstill.
A report was spread yesterday
that last evening the Internotion-
al and Great Norther would be
tied up. All trains were, however,
running as usual, and this morn
ing all trains were on time, among
them the Iron Mountain from st.
Louis, with Pullman sleeper at
tached.
A number of Southern Pacific
officials arrived from the east this
morning. On inquiry of the object
of their visit a reporter for the
LIGHT was told that they were
here on traffic matters and knew
nothing of the boycott but what
they read in the newspapers. The
party consists of q. w. Bein, traffic
manager, headquarters at Houston;
S. F. b. Morse, general passenger
agent, headquarters at New Or
leans, and L. J. Parks, assistant
general passenger and ticket agent
at Houston.

ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT
CARNOT OF FRANCE.

The world was startled last week
by the intelligence of the murder of
the President of France by the hand
of an Italian anarchist or insane crank,
who thrust large dagger into his
side while he was sitting in carriage
in Lyons, where he had gone to at
tend some fete occasion. The villain
approached the carriage with a paper
in his hand which the guards presum-
ed was a petition, but it contained a
poignard, and Nichol, which his name
appears to be, was in striking distance.
He struck the President a fierce blow
in the side, the weapon entering the
liver and the abdomen, Carnot living
a few hours. The murderer fell into
the hands of the guards, and it was
only by great effort that he was saved
from being torn to pieces by the peo-
pie near the scene of the murder. This
is another cruel crime which can not
be accounted for in any reasonable
way of looking at things. 1t seems to
have been the act of an anarchist de-
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1894-07-02

mon or half insane wretch like Git
teau, who murdered for the sheer love
of the unenviable fame it will give
the villain who perpetrates the crime.
The vile and murderous spirit which
seems to animate the anarchist, finds
exercise in the most cruel acts of MUIR
der, seeking to destroy those highest
in power or most beloved by the ma
ton and the world. To such the fear
of the gallows ana the guillotine is as
nothing. To die for such rivalling
seems to be thing they glory in.
This fresh exhibition of a crime of
this sort sends thrill of terror over
the world. There is little security
for the lives of such as are great and
revered. If law or punishment had
any terror for such as plan and exc
cute crimes Of such enormity, it might
be hoped to awe Or destroy the crea-
lures of malice, as it is, there seems
little that can be done.

General News Items.

Hundreds of cattle and sheep were
burned at the Jersey City Central
stock yards the 18th inst. The loss is
$500, 900 and the origin unknown.
The better class of people at Chad
ron, Neb., are much stirred up over
the one hundred mile horse race held
there recently. Four horses are
dead, though the only horse that made
the full tri is sound and we'll. War
rants are out for all participants, and
it is understood that q vigorous fight
will be made on both sides. The HUI
name Society did nothing to prevent
the race, some members watching the
race throughout.
The few days past have sad record
of the loss of life from drowning, mine
disasters and other casualties: Over
$50 lives were lost in coal mine in
Wales; one man and six women were
drowned near New York, Sunday; by
the overturning of tug boat near
the Highlands, from 25 to 80 lives
were lost the same day; squat in
and about Detroit harbor on the same
Sunday caused the loss of many lives.

i The citizen who is the most value to
a community, town or city, is not al
ways the man who possesses the most
wealth, the highest intelligence, or
the most aristocratic lineage. Of
course the two former will increase
mans usefulness if he will but exert
them in the proper direction. But
the valuable citizen par excellence is
the man who believes thoroughly in
his town, it's people and it's business
and professional men. He does
not make it his business to decry the
honesty of his local banker Or mer-
chant or the ability of the resident
lawyer or physician. But instead he
is an enthusiastic advocate of all
things that pertain to the welfare OF
his own locality. He has the interest
Of it's schools, churches, societies and
people at heart and exploits their ex-
cellence abroad. We need more of
this class Of citizens and have the
material in our midst to construct
them.

The Vermont republicans, in the
State convention they held June 20,
followed the advice of the Union gen
eral, who, at the beginning of an i'm
portant battle in the war of the re-
bellion, gave this command: ''Put the
Vermonters ahead and keep the
column closed up" 1t named for
governor and lieutenant governor
two Union colonies, both of whom
lost an arm in helping to save their
country. And when the voters go to
the polls in September to elect these
two Vermonters who are at the front
again they will doubtless keep the
republican column closed up and roll
up majority that will wake the
echoes in the Green Mountains. Two
congressman are to be elected and the
republicans should see that their can
didates receive the most emphatic
majorities that it is possible to give.
Vermont has always been known for
it's big republican majorities, but this
is year of big majorities all over,
and Vermont will have to "hump"
herself if she expects to hold her rank.

THE SENATORIAL BRIBERY IN
TESTTGA TION

It is now known authoritatively
who the Senators are that "help up"
the Democratic majority and forced
the sugar schedule and other ''conces-
sions'' that have Mckinleyzed the
Wilson bill. Their names have been
revealed under oath by Senator Vest,
who, as member of the Finance
charged with framing the Senate
amendments, was in a position to
knw all that was done in bringing
about the compromise" Before the
Sugar Investigating Committee on
Saturday Senator Vest testified that
Senator German was the leader of the
small band of Democratic protection
lists who call themselves "Conserva-
tives," and that with him were Brice,
Hill, Smith, Of New Jersey, Caffery,
of Louisiana, and White, then Senator
from Louisiana, now Associate Justice
of the Supreme Court. The method
of the 'shold up" is described by SEN
ator Vest as follows: The subcommit-
tee charged with framing the Senate
bill placed a one cent specific duty on
raw sugar, polariscopic test, and
graded duty beginning at 80 degrees.
No differential duty was placed on
refined sugar. The bill thus framed
was to have been reported to the
regular Finance Committee on
Tuesday. On the Monday previous
Senator German called a caucus of
the Democratic members of the SEN
ate and that caucus Instructed the
subcommittee to take the bill back
and make it acceptable, if possible,
sooner had the subcommittee return
ed to the committee room than there
appeared before it Senators German,
Brice, Hill, Smith, Caffery and White,
demanding changes in the sugar
schedule, substituting ad valorem for
specific duties and changing the rates.
This evidence, coupled with that of
| Senator Brice to the effect that if
these concessions had not been made
no tariff bill would have been passed,
is of the highest value. It lifts out of
the realm Of newspaper reports"
| the methods of the German 'thold-
up" 1t opens the jealousy guarded
door of the committee-room and dis
closes the names Of the Democratic
McKinleyites. 1t fixes where it belongs
the responsibility for the defeat Of
Democratic hopes.-Ne,0 York World
