ciples which were the features of the Fourth
of July to which Administration people are
said to be taking exceptions.
Governor Campbell has secured the appoint
ment of some of his democratic friends to good
Federal positions. The people are mainly in
terested in knowing that these appointees are
fit for their places that they are democrats and
that they are serving the public faithfully and
well. 1t may we'll be assumed that the COVER
nor has discharged all the personal and politi-
cal obligations devolving on him in the mat
ter. When the president made the appoint
ments in question he was merely recognizing
political services already rendered. The party
account is balanced and closed.
Governor Campbell in his speech at Tam
many Hall, was in accord with the general
Democratic sentiment of the country. Hewas
in line with the long established record of his
party in its policy against foreign aggression.
The Governor has studied the history of the
country, and knows that our extensive and
valuable acquisitions of territory were under
Democratic rule, and that time has amply
vindicated the democratic judgment. He said
nothing unkind of Mr.. Clevelaed and cast no
reflections upon the administration. He
simply preached democratic doctrine that
Grover Cleveland would do well to study.
The president should get under further obli-
CATION to James f. Campbell by acting upon
his words of wisdom and patriotism. Editorial

The United states should Be Extremely
Cautious In such an Afsir.
WASHINGTON, July 9.--If the French
government, as indicated by the cable
dispatches takes steps to invite the
United States to join France in an
agreement to arbitrate any future in
ternational differences, it is probable
that the proposition must be submitted
to the senate in the form of special
treaty. Last winter, Mr.. Cremer, q
British member of parliament. repre-
senting several hundred of his col
leagues and many great British public
lists, visited Washington for the express
purpose of securing the adhesion of the
United States to an agreement with
Great Britain, such as is now proposed
In the case of France, but failed.
The United States should be ex-
tremely cautious in committing itself
to the principle of compulsory arbitra-
tion, the most important of which per-
haps is that owing to the radical differ
ences between the principles Of govern
ment as administered on the two sides
of the Atlantic, we might easily upon
such a question as one involving the
application of the famous Monroe doc
trine find that we had delivered our
destinies into the hands of our enc
mics

to put in an electric plant
The Canton company has been given the

COLUMBUS, July GA dastardly at
tempt was made to blow up the resi-

church adjoining late last night. A
bomb was thrown on the porch of the
residence and another into the church.
Luckily the bomb did not do the work
expected, as the church was only par

aged.
A small pile of bricks was blown
out of one corner of the latter. The
bomb thrower evidently not only in
tended to destroy the house, but the
lives of the occupants as well. There

TAYLOR LOCATED

NEVER COMING BACK

SO He Says-Has Two Poitts in View,
One is Cuba, Where There is Revo-
luton, the other Is MeSico, Where
There Are Gold Mines and Gold If
1t Can be Found-The 1oung Man
Has Evidently Given Up the Idea
of killing Himself.
Attorney r. Norwood Taylt, who took
French leave on Monday night July 1st, de-
serting charming and lovalle wife and
numerous anxious creditors andwho wrote to
his wife from Chicago saying thai he was gone
for good-has been located in Pueblo, Colo
rado. That is, he located himself there, tenn
porarily. Mr.. John G. Welty today received
letter from Taylor, dated July 9th at Pueblo.
The top of the letterhead was torn of to con-
ceal his stopping place. The letter was on
two pages of paper and was of purely business
nature. As the partnerof Mr.. welty he had
information he gave to Mr.. Welty He then
in humble terms apoogized to his brmer partner
for the trouble he bad caused him, begged him
to forgive him and asked him to accept all his
law books as present
Taylor also stated in the letter that he was
gone for good and never would return. He
said his destination at present was not quite
certain but that it was either Cuba or Mexico.
Taylor's letter did not disclose any regret at
leaving beyond that sorrow which his father
and mother would endure and the annoyance
to Mr.. Welty. He said nothing further about
doing anything rash with himself and he has
evidently conc uded to remain on earth.

THE G. A. BAND.
What Cleveland Gentleman Says
About It-A New Band for
That CITY.


For some time past efforts have been made
in Cleveland for the organization of first class
band, and Cleveland papers believe that they
will soon own an organization of this kind.
The Cleveland Penny Press of Monday has an
extended article on the subject, and names as
the board of governors of the new organization
Messrs. j. A. Beidler, ]. V. N. Yates, l.. G.
Beach and II. H. Hyman. The Cleveland
Athletic Club band is to be the nucleus of a
larger organization. In the article in ques-
ton a representative citizen is quoted as fol-
lows:
'We have more military companies than
any other city of our size in the country, and
these companies willgo long way toward
supporting good band During the past five
years thousands of dollars have been spent by
these companies bringing foreign bands to this
city. This money would all have gone to a
local band II there had been one here.
''The Canton Grand Army band has done
more to advertise that town than any ten Of
its other enterprises. good hand in Cleve-
land will do the same for this town"
A member of the Canton band expressed his
belief this morning that the new organization
"ouiu meot bho sano iapo no Inat vi previous
ones in Cleveland. He thinks there is too
much jealousy and wrangling between Cleve-
land musicians to allow of successful and har.
monious band, and as it would. take years to
secure the reputation the G. A. band main
tains it will not interfere with the latter in the
least? Said he LET Cleyelanders take even
a superior band to the Grand Army out from
their city on any occasion and then let the
Grand Army band appear. The latters name
and reputation, aside from the music, will
command the respect Of all.o

wounded Frank Langford, young
white man of Marietta without cause.
The negro at once tried to make his es-

with guns, pistols and ropes, crying,

to be hoodwinked, by telling them
that there was a ''nigger in the
woodpile" at the Alexandria Con-
ference. How long will the peo-
pie be fooled by the hypocritical
cries of white supremacy from a
party that has stolen negro votes
for a living for 20 years, elected
and appointed negroes to Office, and
positively refused numerous offers
to submit its ticket to the white
people Of any parish or district in
the State
We want to say right here, for
the benefit of those people who
might be fooled by the misrepre-
sentations of the Democratic press,
that there is no fusion between the
Populist and Republicans, or any,
body else. The Republicans sim
ply offered to support our State
ticket in the hope of defeating the
suffrage amendment and the Foster
counting machine. Now, does any
Populist want to prevent the Re-
publicans from doing this Z? Fos-
ter's henchmen do, we know, so as
to leave something to hide their
