HON. $. H. WHITE.

The people of this county and vicin-
ity have rare treat in store for next
Saturday afternoon in the speech
which Hon. S. III. White of Colorado
will give them. He is an earnest and
capable advocate of bimetallism as it
was established by the men who
framed the constitution and gave the
country free coinage of silver under
the law of 1892. That law and theory
of finance had the approval and sane
ton of Washington, Hamilton, Frank
lin, Jefferson and jackson and was
never questioned but as being for the
best interests of the American people
until its surrepettious repeal in 1873.
Even the republicans advocated the
same doctrines advocated by the free
silver party until the Wall street
machine got control of the republican
party at st. Louis, and dictated its
candidate and platform. The article
on our second page headed "Republi-
can doctrine" is what the republican
congressional committe demanded in
its address in 1890. Read it and if
what it advocated was true then, why
is it false now? If those who put that
forth were patriots how comes it that
those who now favor it are ..lunatics,"
anarchists and ''repudiators. I"

VIII Neither Affirm Nor Deny the Re-
ports of Contemplated Withdrawal
Atlanta, Ca, Oct. 3.-Thomas 2. Wat
son will neither affirm nor deny the
report that he contemplates retiring
from the populist ticket. To rep
resentative of the press he said Friday
morning that he had no coli. ment to
make as to the published reports
further than to state that his re-
tirement would defeat Bryan because
the middle-of-the-road populists would
vote for Mckinley before they would
for SeWau. Watson says that he has
been badly treated in fusion arrange
ments Which have been hade soyth
ana west. # he santenpkztes any move
he will NOT annonnee it until after the
Georgia state election next week.
Washington, Oct. 3.-According to in
formation published here no effort is
now being made TO have either Watson
or Sewan withdraw. 1t is regarded ms
too late for any new move in the adj
justment of the vice presidential cam
didacy. The democrats and popu.ists,
it is said, have perfected fusion in all
the states where they regard fusion as
desirable, except in West Virginia. This
the managers believe disposes of the
question Of adjusting the vice presi-
dency.
Atlanta, Ga, Oct. BIN this weeks
edition of Thomas E. Watson's peoples
party paper appears an editorial attack
upon Chairman Marion Butler, which
is considered of much significance, in
view Of the rumors that Mr.. Watson will
soon retire from the populistic presi-
dental ticket. The article concludes
as follows:
Attempts have been made to show that
MIR. Watson favored fusion IN the state Of
Indiana. This is not correct Mr.. Watson
took the positfon at the beginning of the
campaign that no populist could consist
emily vote for a Sewall elector any more
than ne could vote for a Hobart elector.
He filed with Chairman Butler written
protest against Mr.. Buffers fusion policy
MI. Rutler has ignored Mr.. Watson's pro.
test and gone steadily forward on his own
line. Mr.. Watson's position now is what
1t was when the Georgia state convention
met. He is for the straight middle of the
road ticket. In no other way can the dem
ocrattc managers be forced to abide by the
st. Louis contract. Mr.. Watson's position
has been humiliating and embarrassing
and he has been compelled to submit to
policies he did not approve"

New York, Oct. 3.-The steamer Andes
which arrived Friday afternoon from
Jamaican ports, brings news of Thu
great fire which destroyed two-third,
OF the town of Jacmel, on Septembe,
10, 20 and 81. At ten o'clock in thu
morning the alarm of fire was given
and every effort was made at once to
have it extinguished. The fire origin
tated on the hill near the cathedral and
completely destroyed that edifice. The
flames burned seward, and burned all
the houses and stores between the hill
and the sea. No water could be obtained
at any time during the fire, which ragged
from Saturday morning until Tuesday
night, when The Andes left. On that
night the fire was still smoldering. The
loss sustained is estimated at $5,OO0,
900. The fire is supposed to be the work
of an mcendiary. Great restitution pre-

had a large cargo from New York fol

A Pretty Home.

The residence of j. H. Beadle now so
nearly completed that the family oc-
cupies it, is one of the prettiest of the
many really beautiful ones in our city.
1t is located upon beautiful plat of
ground in the midst of native oak
grove. The house faces west and
south. The west front facing the
Granger road the south front facing a
newly opened and graded street. The
house has front elevation of about
four feet above the grading, and on
the south and west sides is a broad
veranda ornamented with balustrade,
columns and brackets in keeping with
the style of architecture of the house.
Its irregular outline with its numer-
Gus beautifully designed gables gives
it an attractive and home like appear
ance that makes one fall in line with
it at sight. The interior will contain
the hall in the north west corner, the
parlor IN the south west the dining
room and the family bedroom, the
family living room and the kitchen
with suitable closets, cupboards and
bathroom on the first floor. The Sec
ond floor will contain several large
sleeping rooms, and large play
room for the children. The view from
the north windows of the second floor
is sublime. The basement contains
the vegetable cellar and ALSO a cy-
clone cellar which will give protec-
lion and safety from the 6ercest blast
of the hurricane or the twister. This
model of beauty and taste was de-
signed and constructed by Geo. H.
West and his corps of competent and
skilled workmen.

Want To Exclude "National Democratic
Party" from New Yor Ballot.
New York, Oct. 3.-The managers Of
the democratic state campaign have de.
,cided to go into litigation, if necessary
to prevent the use on the blanket ballot
by the gold democratic party of the
name 1.-THE national democratic party
Chairman Elliot Danforth, of the
democratic state committee, said that
protest against the use of the name
Hthe national democratic party" by the
gold democrats would be fled with the
eearetazy Of STATE at Albany as soon d
possible.
II the secretary Of state refuses Ia
entertain the protest, it will be carried
to the courts.
There was some excitement at the
headquarters of the gold democracy
Friday morning when it was learned
that the democratic state COMMITTEES
was going to contest their right to use
the title "the national democratic
party" It was announced that Chair.
man Danforth's committee would gel
all the fight they wanted, and that the
right to use the title "the national

the last.

Of State Hinrichsen Friday their petit
ton for the nomination of "a elector,
and state officers in Illinois. They were
eloseted with the secretary some time
and he agreed to file their papers, but

made vigorous protest, which has
not yet been answered by the German

HURON, S. D., March 24.-Nearly all
the delegates for tomorroW's conven-
ton are here. The crowd is the largest
that has gathered here for many years
and includes many old wheel horses of
the Republican party of South Dakota.
A striking feature of the personnel Of
the delegates is the great number of
young men. They are an enthusiastic
set of men, and while the contests for
supremacy are spirited all the candi-
dates are conducting their campaign
good naturedly. There is less feeling
tonight relative to selecting delegates
by judicial districts than was mani
tested this morning. 1t now looks as if
the plan first suggested by the central
committee will be allowed to stand, and
each judicial district will be allowed
to name its delegate. This plan will
simplify matters and give better salts
faction that if an attempt were made to
force some of the candidates out of the
race by adopting the ''at large" sys-
tenn. Even now no one can foretell the
result Of tomorroW's contests with any
degree of accuracy. While each dele
cation has its favorite, there are indi-
cations that concessions will be made
whereby strife within the party will be
avoided. The Black Hills people, head
ed by ex-Congressman Lucas, are as
greatly perpleXed to know what is the
better course to pursue as are dele
gates from any other quarter. A tele-
gram was received from Senator Petit
grew, this evening, saying: "Win go
as a delegate if my friends insist and
will do as the convention desires if in
structed." This was received by e. w.
Caldwell of Sioux Falls, and was a
great surprise to some Of Senator Pet
tigreWs opponents, who have been in
dustriously making sentiment against
him on the ground that he would not
consent to go to st. Louis with an in
structed delegation. 1t acted like oil
upon the troubled waters and has done
much toward quieting the fears of his
friends. For a time today, Pettigrew
stock was low, but since the receipt of
the above telegram, it has risen per-
ceptibly. The Mckinley sentiment has
grown wonderfully, and while many
are unable to harmonic Senator Petit
crews telegram with the expressions
heretofore attributed to him, there is
a strong inclination to include him in
the delegation. He arrived at mid
night Hon. John H. King arrived
from Washington this evening to help
inaugurate an Allison boom, but had
no following. Congressman Dolliver
addressed an immense throng tonight.
