DOWN WITH CAMPOS,
AND "LoNG LIVE THE REPUBLIC"
WAS SHOUTED
ny the Mob In Madrid while March,
Ing to the Funeral of IA Man
Killed by the Police.

New York. Feb. s.-A dispatch to the
was the scene of demonstration that
would have required but very little to
have turned 1t into n serious riot. As
told on Tuesday last, a number of men
hoo'9d Gen. Campos as he was driving
to his residence from the railway sta
tion on his return from Cuba, A mum
Der were arrested. and one of them
broke away from the gendarmes who
had him in custody and sought 10 make
his escape. The gendarmes fired twice
at him and killed him. The shooting
was bitterly condemned by the Repub-
llcans.
The funeral OF the victim took place
and was attended by an enormous
crowd. Fully 1900 men. most OF whom
were Republicans. marched to the
cemetery. shouting for the entire dis
tance:
Down with the pollcer Down
with the Camposl' and long live the
republicv'
The government anticipated trouble
and there was strong display OF gem
darmes who. however appeared to be
afraid TO interfere with the procession
in any way lest they provoke riot.
Consequently the crowd shouted itself
hoafse until the cemetery was reached.
when the great assemblage stood with
barred heads until the funeral rites had
been completed.
The greater portion OF the crowd
then dispersed. but two thousand OF its
number formed in line and marched
unmolested back to the royal palace,
In front of which they gathered I'M
molested and shouted; death to the
kingw Death to the queen regentw
and long live the republic"
Even the palace guards seemed to
he inundated by the sullen temper of
the mob and made not the slightest at.
tempt to drive them away. After
partly venting their anger against the
youthful King and his mother, tho
crowds marched to the residence OF
Gen: Campos. where similar demons
tration OF disapproval was made. The
apathy of the police, which was un-
questionably due to fear, was slgniii-
cant. So far as Is known, the civil au.
thorltles made no request OF the milf
larry for aid in dispensing the crowd.
The crowds committed no overt acts
however, contenting themselves with
shouting and hooting, but they were
very evidently In "A humor TO fight had
they been interfered with. After
darkness had set In It was proposed TO
gather under the windows OF the hotel

MADRID practically TO attend the funer-

serenade them. The police had III the

upon carrying out the plan, finally
listened to the leaders and dispersed.

A PoPuLIsT COMPLAINT

Judge ]. C, Terrell writes to the
Gazette complaining OF the form of the
ballot to be voted at the Democratic
primary election. 1t thus submits the
financial issue.
For bimetallism. that Is for tho
free coinage OF both gold and silver
into standard money without any dla.
elimination against either metal or
charge for mintage. upon the same
terms and subject only to like llmlta
lions as to the right OF coinage and
LEGAL tender qualities at the establish.
ed ratio OF 10 to l." or
Against binotalliam. for the single

coinage OF silver into standard mon ~
without discriminating against 1t ur
charge for mintnge. upon the same
terms ana subject only to like limita.
lions an to right OF coinage and jnra,
tender qualities as Ia even TO gold AZ
the ratio of I6 to l."
Judge Terrells objection is that the
ballot does not contain the word "un-
limited" as applied to the coinage OF
silver. II ia not needed there. The bal
lot submits the issue OF equality for
gold and silver at the public mints
BY reference to the Federal statutes.

There was not an intelligent man In
america who voted for Cleveland in
1902 who did not know that free coin
tge OF silver would not be tolerated
while he was presidont.-'savoyard In
Courlor-Journnl.
The Gazette knew Mr.. Cleveland to
t,c an enemy OF silver. and so declared
In 1892, but the vote OF Texas for
Cleveland In the national convention
was secured by representations on the
floor OF the state convention that the
Ciazette's statement OF his position was
Inaccurate. and that Cleveland was n
friend of silver. These representations
we're made by the manager OF the
Cleveland forces just back from wash.
ngton md the East at the time, who
has since been rewarded with high ju-
dioIal honors for that service to the
president.
Does the Courier-Journal mean to
say that Intelligent men ought not to

The immigration from the North and
Northwest TO the South during the last
few months has been one OF the most
noticeable features OF the business
changes Of the country. The movement
has resulted In the purchase OF large
tracts OF land and the starting OF new
enterprises which viii have a wide
reaching effect. The immigration has
not been confined to single individuals
and families but whole colonies hayo
come together and built up new towns
and new industries. A 10O.OOO-acre
tract was purchased in Georgia for
colonization purposes. and 5000 or 5000
people from the West have already
settled In the district, Sales OF smaller
tracts have been made in North Caro-
lima. Mississippi and other states. This
large influx OF Intelligent citizens from
other states bringing fresh energy and
capital will be Of almost lnestlmable
value to the South. She has no use
for ignorant and lndolent immigrants
but needs all the Thrifty, intelligent
citizens she can get.
