w. J. Whipper. one of the negro dele
gates in the South Carolina constitutional
convention. asserts that there was never
negro rule" in that state. even during
the carpet bag period, and that the ne
groes were merely the tools Of bad white
men. It occurs that this same Whipper
was judge of the court of common pleas
and general sessions at the time. If a
negro judiciary does not so a long way
toward constituting negro rule. it is diff
Seult to understand what would consti-
tute such rule. Whipper's arraignment
Of the bad white men, however. is mer-
tied.

Progress of sound Money.
From the Dalton Ca, Argus DEM

The refusal of the farmers congress
to adopt the 16 to l idea shows how great
the progress of the sound money senti-
ment has been within the last few months.
We have said quite frequently recently,
that the free silver coinage craze was
dying out, and the action of the farmers
congress confirms the statement. 1t IS
almost dead enough to bury.

An interesting part of the address of Mr..
R. II. Edmonds of Baltimore, before the
New England Cotton Manufacturers AS
ISOLATION at Atlanta the other day, was his
explanation of why New England is so
much ahead of the south in cotton manu-
featuring, Notwithstanding the south pro-
duces the cotton. and had cotton mills at
as early a date as New England had them.
It was, he said. purely a matter of fol-
lowing the line of business which gave
the best returns. From 1900 to 1860 the prices
of cotton ruled high. There was a great
profit in its production. The south gave
its attention to the growing of the staple,
which gave large percentage of profit,
and left the manufacturing of it, with its
smaller percentages of profit, to other sec
tons. When the price of cotton went down
cutting off the margin of profit in produce
ton, the south began to take up cotton
and other manufacturing. The south has
made more Industrial progress under low
priced cotton than when cotton sold high.
The information is that there is some
difficulty experienced in keeping a sufH-
cient number of members of the legis-
lature at the state house to carry on the
legislative business. The members all
have free exposition passes. and find
the Midway much more entertaining than
the committee rooms. 1t might be a
good idea for the sergeant-at-arms to
rent that bull pen. erected for the pro-
posed bull fights, and move the session
of the assembly out where the members
could be called handny when a vote is
about to be taken.

This statement was made in his cot

Congressman Poole came here to In

STUNNED BY LIGHTNING.
Glastonbury Man Felled in His Boat
Crawled on Hands and Knees,

Glastonbury July 17.-Julius C. Rob-
erts had narrow escape from drown
ing Saturday afternoon. He was on
the cove fishing from a rowboat and
did not observe the rapidly approaching
shower until it was quite near. He
hurriedly wound UP his lines and was
about to row to the shore when, as he
described 1t, 1t seemed to him a red
hot iron was suddenly flashed in front
of his eyes, followed by peal of thun-
der. Peculiar sensations began to come
over him and he was soon lying un-
conscious in the bottom Of the boat, at
least he has no memory of what hap
pened for some time after, and when
he regained consciousness he found him
self in this condition. He was sitting
when the flash came, otherwise it is
not unlikely that he would in his weak
ened condition have fallen overheard.
He found great difficulty in climbing
the hill back of Elmer Trillcotts after
reaching the shore and was so weak
that he finally was obliged to take
to his hands and knees to do SO. Mr..
Roberts has been mucn incapacitated
since and has just begun to get his
usual strength again. His appetite
was also much affected and he has
been unable to keep anything on his
stomach.

TEN THOUSAND PEOPLE SAW FIRE
MEN GO TO THEIR DEATHS.

Cigar Thrown Carelessly on q Floor Was
the Cause of Great Damage by Fire and
the Loss of Life-When the Walls of
building Fell Men and W omen Lost Their
Heads Completely.
Cincinnati, July ia fatal fire at
2 o'clock this afternoon in the main
part of the shipping quarter of the
city resulted in the death of two fire.
men and the probable fatally injuring
of six others. The fatalities were
caused by the falling of the walls of the

Captain Purcell, Driver Bart Thomp-

1t is impossible to tell at this hour
how many OF the firemen will die.
They are all unconscious at midnight
When the fire alarm sounded nearly
every engine in the city bottoms, as
that part of the city lying near the ap-
proach to the big suspension bridge is
called, was sent to the scene. The
block which was destroyed hes at Front
and Water streets. From the time the
alarm sounded until late at night scenes
narrowing and pathetic transpired in
rapid succession.
The fire burst forth from the sec
ond story OF Hermesch & Co.'S building
at Water and Walnut streets. 1t Is
supposed by some to have started from
a cigar thrown carelessly on the floor,
which was covered with loose hay.
In ten minutes after the iremen reach
ed the scene the handsome five-story
building was doomed.
The flames jumped to the adjoining
buildings, rapidly devouring the stores
and warehouses Of the Smith Coal and
Sand company, the Nelson Morris sta
bles and the stores of Klein and Quirk
and Seaman & Co. The fire was under
control when the walls Of Klein &
Quirk's building fell. They we're con-
sidered safe. The firemen were fight
ing the fire without thought of danger
when the crash came. Ten thousand
people witnessed the disaster. For a
moment both men and women lost their
heads completely. Then citizens came
forward and aided In the rescue of
the buried fren1en.
Captain Healey and Pipeman Wisby
were the first dug out, but were dead.

firemen were extricated from the mass
Of debris. Soma Of the escapes were
