BALTIMORE, Nd, Sept. 5.-The
Southern States Magazine has a
special dispatch showing that re-
cent sales of land along the Mobile
and Ohio railroad to northern and
western people aggregate 10000

Mob Lynches the Young Savannah
Scoundrel


SAVANNAH, Ga, Sept. IA spe-
cial to the Morning News from
Waresboro, Ga, says that the Ne
gro Wesley Weaver, who entered
the room of Major j. M. Spence's
little daughter Saturday night,
made a full confession Sunday
morning and said the boy Alfred
Wade, whom he had implicated,
was not connected with it. Not
withstanding the fact that he
failed to accomplish his designs,
excitement ran high and the town
authorities thought it best to get
Weaver to better place Of safety.
He was slipped out through
back entrance but they had not
gone far with him when they were
overtaken by about 100 armed
men, who took Weaver and went
down the railroad tracks. When
the freight passed here this morn
ing the engineer reported to Sec
ton Foreman Herrin that he saw
a man tied to q telegraph pole
about two miles from town. Fore
man Herrin and Agent Murray,
with others, went down and found
Weaver tied to the pole and riddled
with bullets. The coroner was no.
titled and held an inquest. The
verdict was that he came to his
death by gunshot wounds In the
hands of unknown persons. Weaver
claimed Gainesville as his home.

DAvIDGE STILL LIVES,
But There Is a Chance That He
Will be Lynched.

MARLBORO, Nd, Sept. 5.-Many
residents of Marlboro remained
awake Tuesday night, fearing that
John Davidge, charged with at
tempting assault on little Emma
Stewart, might be taken from Jail
and lynched. A gang of strange
men passed through the town late
at night but used no violence. 1t
is questioned whether they were
colored men whose purpose was to
protect the prisoner in case of at
tempted lynching, or gang of
men blackened, awaiting the ar
rival of other associates. They re-
manned concealed in different 10.
calities around the jail, but disap-
peared at day break.
The morning train brought an
other culprit, Graham Mason, col
ored, charged with committing an
assault on married woman, Ra-
chel Roes, also colored, at her home
near Branchville.

They Have a Kick Coming.

TOPEKA, Kas., Sept. 5.-Today
the commission men at the Kansas
City stock yards telegraphed the
Governor demanding a reorganiza-
ton of the Live Stock and Sanitary
board. They give as reason, the
fact that two members of the pres
emit board, constituting majority,
publish broadcast every report Of
Texas fever in any community in
the state in order to justify the
collection Ut two cents head in
inspection fees, IL the cattle are
shipped from Texas, New Mexico
and Arizona through Kansas to
market. The stockmen state also
the organization will demand Of
Governor Morrill, the removal Of
the present board. The stock men
of Kansas buy their cattle in New
Mexico and Texas and they claim
the 2 cents inspection fee is q rake
off for the board.

He May Not Be Fraker.

KANSAS CITY, No., Sept. ga
special to the Star from Liberty,
Mo-, says: Astounding develop
ments, it is rumored here, may be
developed in the DR.. Fraker in
surance case before another twen-
ty-four hours elapSe. An official
of one of the defrauded insurance
companies, who is here working
on the case, it is said on good
authority, makes the statement
that the much talked of prisoner is
not the doctor. The name of the
doubling official is not made pub
lie. Judge j. III. Sandusky, attor-
ney for Judge j. f. Lincoln, exc
cutor of the Fraker estate, states
this morning that they have not
admitted yet that the prisoner is
Fraker. All Judge Sandusky will
say, however, is that it may and
may not be Fraker. Persons who
knew Fraker intimately at Excel
sior Springs, where the doctor
lived before his memorable disap-
pearance, will be here this after
noon, when the question of identi-
ty will be permanently settled.

Charges That the Riots in China

Are Due to British and Ameri-

BY Mail to Commercial Gazette.
CINCINNATI, Sept. 5.-The Com
mercial Gazette prints todaya let
ter dated Shanghai, China, Aug. 8,
written by Rev. E. T. Williams, six
years pastor of the Central Chris
tian church, this city, and now
secretary Of the Foreign Mission
society of the Christian church out
on tour around the world, visiting
missions. The salient points Of
the letter are, that the recent riot.
Gus assaults on Christians were
the result of the temporizing
policy of the United States and
England with China. He says the
English accept money indemnity
for outrages which the mandarins
are only too glad to pay, as they
extort it from friends of the out
ragged, thus accomplishing double
purpose. He says that within two
months riots emptied twenty cities
in China Of European and Ameri-
can missionaries, and yet the
American minister entrusted the
interests of Americans to Junior
British consul and to a com.
mission partly composed Of Chi
nese officials implicated in the
riots. He says these riots are auti-
missionary instead Of anti-foreign,
that the government blue book
against foreigners contains lies so
indecent that it would be viola
tion of law anywhere in the United
States to repeat them. He writes
that tracts containing blasphemous
lies and illustrated with horribly
obscene pictures, written by Man.
DARN Hunenin, in 1890, and still in
circulation, are misleading the ig-
norant and melting riot. No Amer
lean or British authority have ut
tered a, word Of protest against
these monstrous lies. He says,
furthermore, that all the riots have
been planned in the vamens and
winked at and assisted by the Of
ficials. AS to the plea that officials
were unable to prevent riots, he
says that is a mere subterfuge, for
during the late war they did pro-
tect foreigners and make it safer
for them than ever before where
as, now, their journals were urging
the Chinese to wipe out the dis.
grace of defeat in war by murder
GUS riots on unarmed missionaries.

BRO. PALMER shot OF his "saluta-
tory" last week. and had he kept a
level head and not allowed himself
to become fiighty would not have
done so bad. Here is one OF his Eighty
spells:
1T (the Signal, viii continue to be

able and fair, TO promote the success
Of the best party which ever existed,
in the best country that the sun
shines upon; the party that is equal

The italics are not ours, but Bro.
Palmer's, and right there he makes
his first break, and shows the shall
lowness Of his position, and his mar
row mindedness, which is bad be-
ginning for one just entering the pa
per field.
This country has been managed by
both Democrats and Republicans. and
has lived and prospere since its birth.
1t has passed through dangerous
periods under the management of
both the great parties. In 1878, un-
derthe administration of the Republi-
canparty, this country passed through
one of the greatest financial and bust
ness crisises it ever saw, much great
er than the one we have just passed
through under Democratic admins
tration. But neither of these crisises
were brought on by Democratic man.
agement, for both can be attributed
to Republican administration of af-
fairs. Long before the Harrison ad-
ministration went out of power, the
financial distress which we have Just
passed through was predicted by
Democrats and acknowledged and
feared by Republicans. The Harrison
administration strove to avert the
calamity, but through the passage of
unwholesome and viscious laws, and
refusal to reform the tariff in the
interests of the masses, the tide could
not be stemmed, but thanks to the
safe guidance of President Cleveland
and his followers the county has sur
vived and is now on the high road to
a period of prosperity it has not ex-
perienced for years.
No, no, Bro. Palmer, God save this
country, if Republicans only could be
trusted with its management.
