them who would be the next republican
nominee for the presidency The two
gentlemen were of opposite political par
ties, republican and democrat and each

Each looked at the correspondent with
the air of "a man who might see peach
bloom in January, and the republican
said: Don't you think your question is
rather prematurela The correspondent
admitted that it might be, but added that
he would like an answer all the same.
The democrat said: II can tell whom
the republicans will nominate. 1t will be
either Harrison or Allison"
"You have come very near It, replied
the republican, $50 near that l think you

The democrat continued 81 think ALI

man to solidify the party in Illinois,

badly shaken up"
You've got that down right" assented
the republican.
HE would make a superb candidate, ~
said the democrat, land a superb Presi-
dent, if elected. Everybody in the Senate
admires him. He would not encourage
any vicious or hurtful legislation. He is
a kind-hearted man, as well as a fair.

Murray county farmer, was shot dead in
his field yesterday by whitecaps, says a
special to the Constitution. Wooley was
plowing at the time. No one saw his
assassins, but there is no doubt that they
were members of the Murray county
whitecap gang. Wooley was formerly a
member of the band. most of whose leading
members are moonshiners They sus-
pected him of treachery, and last week
took him out at night and strung him up.
One of the gang slipped back. gave him a
knife, and Wooley cut himself down. He
was fired on as he ran away. IL was
thought that he had left the country. But
he did not leave, and declared that he
was coming to Atlanta to give Gov. Nor
then the names of 100 members of the
gang. Before Wooley could carry out his
threat he was murdered

to the News and Courier from Benefits
ville Marlborough county says: Alex
ander Edwards, colored, aged 80 years,
was hanged in the Marlborough county
jail at noon to-day for the murder of
James Burnett, colored The condemned
man was tried last February in the court

Judge Aldrich. The murder, a most
brutal one, was committed on Dec. %
last near Clio in this county Edwards,
who had been employed during the day
on a farm near Bingham, undertook to
pilot Burnett to Mccall. They travelled
nearly all night by foot and stopped to
rest in a dense wood near Clio. They
kindled a fire and Burnett was sitting
near it warming when Edwards slipped
up behind him and struck him two heavy
blows on the head with an ak, and think
ing that he had killed his man he
robbed him, securing a pistol and s.
in money for his bloody crime, Burnett,
however, was not dead. Regaining con-
sciousness, he crawled off into the woods,
and when found, several days later, lived
long enough to accuse Edwards of the
murder Edwards had protested his in
nocence all through the trial and impris-
onment, but last Monday made a full con-
fession of his guilt, professed religion,
and said he was ready to die Edwards
and his victim were both from North

THE REPUBLICAN GAME.

Beating Tom-Toms in the House TO
Distract Attention From the Senate.
Washington April 20.-It is very evil
dent that the republicans in the House
are determined to carry out an obstruc-
tive and dilatory policy in all matters as
far as they are able. Their repeated and
persistent points Of "no quorum" even
while the House is considering bills in
the committe of the whole, are proof posi-
tive that they are going to delay legisla-
ton all they can. Aside from their gem
eral purpose TO embarrass the democrats.
they have more specific purpose,
namely, to draw public attention from
the unwarrantab BILE delay of the tariff bill
in the Senate, and, by delaying the
House, make the contrast less sharp be-
tween that body and the Senate.
They are fully aware that what appears
unreasonable delay in Legislation hurts
the party in power much worse than IL
does the minority; that a protracted
struggle over tariff bill while the coun-
try IS suffering from unparalleled finan-
cial depression and business uncertainty,
is dangerous, if not fatal, to those who
are responsible for it. Therefore, 1t seems
TO be a settled plan with the House re-
publicans to assist those In the Senate as
much as possible.
BELIEVE 1T WILL NOT PASS.
There is a considerable number Of re-
publicans who believe that by protracting
the debate, and other tactics, they win
be able to prevent the passage of any
tariff bill at all in the Senate. OF course,
such hope would be vain without the aid
of some of the democrats Unfortunately,
there are some democrats-or some who
call themselves democrats-in the Senate,

the Wilson bill. This is deplorable, but it
is true. There are many who march
under the democratic flag, but whose
allegiance is elsewhere.
