Republican Committeeman Barn
castle formally Withdraws
from His Party-POIi.icaI
Notes.

The following letter from a former
leading Republican in southern New
Mexico is self-ex xplanatory:
To the Chairman Republican County Com
mittee. care of Hon. j. r. McFie. Las CRU
ces, N. NJ.
Dona Ana, N. M, Sept. l, 1s96.-Dear Sir:
For many years have been a Republican
and have helped my party as best lay in
my power. I have been honored more
than once by election to office by the peo-
pie of this county and am grateful for
their suffrage.
| believe in the free and unlimited
coinage of silver, and believe it the duty
of every one fentetoa tanning such opinions
to advocate the same conscientiously, in
the territory Of New Mexico as we'll as in
the states. do not believe that, if actua-
ted by principle, the Republicans in New
Mexico can call themselves Republicans,
and adopt silver platform.
If they believe in free coinage they
should say so and join those who are
best in position to obtain it. If they
believe in a gold standard let them say
so.
I would be ungrateful to the people of
this county if, entertaining the opinions
which have expressed, / should contin-
ne to act with party opposed to those
principles; and l further believe, as a
citizen of this territory and of this coun-
ty, that our best interests will be sub
served by supporting the Democratic
territorial, legislative and county tickets
hence cast my fortunes with the Demo-
Gratis.
hereby respectfully tender my resig-
nation as Republican precinct commit
teeman for precinct No. 2, Dona Ana,
to take effect Immediately.
Respectfully,
[Sisned JOHN d. BARNcAsTLE.

The CRIMSON HAND OF CRIME
Sensational Murder of Young Girl
in Dayton, OhiO-Her Lover
Suspected.
TOLLS TIGHTENING AROUND YOUNG MAN
A Prominent Official of the A. P. A.
Murderously Assaulted by An I'm
known Coward in Kansas City
-Assassinated in Boston.

Dayton, Ohio, Sept. 12.-The murder of
Bessie Little, week ago, is developing
into sensation equal to the murder of
Catherine CHM, at Minneapolis, or of
Pearl Bryan, at Newport, Ky.
When it was proved that Bessie Little
was last seen, on Thursday night, August
81, riding with her lover, Albert Frantz,
the latter said that she had shot herself,
while they we're in the buggy together.
There were theories about the lovers
agreeing to die together and that Frantz
did not carry out his part of the contract
But evidence is accumulating to show
that Frantz deliberately drove the girl
out to an obscure place along Saltwater
river, shot her and threw her body from
the bridge into the river. The next night
Frantz's barn burned, destroying the
blood-stained buggy and other traces.
His own family testified that when
Frantz returned home on the night of the
murder he was greatly excited and fell in
swoon. On being revived, he told them
that Bessie had shot herself, while they
we're out riding, and that in his fright he
threw the body into the river. He has
oouOh W uIo pup iuo AIooo hiupy
admissions that may convict him.
The missing link IN this case is the re-
volver, which Frantz admits he threw
into the river with the body. Chief of
Police Ferret knows where Frantz bought
the revolver previous to the murder and
is doing everything to find the missing
weapon.
MURDERoUsLY ASSAULTED.
Kansas City, Mo.-A. j. Dearborn, state
president of the A. p. A., was found lying
in the street near his home at 5 O'Clock
this morning, unconscious from wounds
inflicted by an unknown assailant. He
is badly battered about the head and is
stabbed.
Dearborn regained consciousness long
enough to relate that he was assaulted at
II O'Clock last night when returning
home alone, by man, who struck him in
the forehead with blunt instrument,
stabbed him three times in the region of
the heart, and then, believing him dead,
threw him over a fence.
Dearborn has relapsed into uncon-
seriousness.

Scrap at Folsom .

The quiet little town of Folsom, up in
Union county, was the scene of shooting
affair and riot on Tuesday. Deputy Sher-
if Thompson, in attempting to arrest a
cattle ruster named Thatcher, shot and
killed an innocent by-stander, and this
enraged the cowboy population to the e1-
tent that Thompson had to run to his
house to save his life. The man who was
killed was named jeff Kelly, an onlooker,
and who was in no way mixed up in the
trouble. Thompson is now in Clayton
under the protection of Sheriff Oyerbey,

of mounted police leading the way.
The crowd Was great and the progress
very slow. II was sort OF triumphal de-

to survey the enthusiastic crowd and

CHAPTER IL

The last bell had rung. Those who
were going ashore had taken their de-
parture. Crowds Of human beings clus-
tered on the pier head and at the large
doorways OF the warehouse which stood
open on the steamer wharf. AS the
big ship slowly backed out there was
n fluttering OF handkerchiefs from the
mass on the pier, and an answering
futter from those who crowded along
the bulwarlSs OF the steamer. The tug
slowly pulled the PROV OF the vessel
around, and at last the engines of the
steamship began their pusating throbs
-throbs that would vibrate night and
day until the steamer reached an older
world. The crowd on the pier became
more and more indistinct TO those on
board. and many OF Che passengers
went below. for the mr. was bitterly
cold, and the boat was forcing it's way
down the bay among huge blocks Of
ice.
Two. ut least, of the passengers had
taken little interest In tho departure.
They were leaving no friends behind
them. and were both setting their faces
toward friends at home.
let us 90 down." said Wentworth
10 Kenyon, "nnd see that we get seats
together at table before ali are taken"
Very good" replied his companion,
and they descended 20 the roOmy
saloon, where two long tables were al
ready laid with an ostentatious display
OF silver. glassware and cutlery, which
made many, who looked on this wilder
ness OF white linen with something like
dismny. hope that the voyage would be
smooth. which. as IL was n winter pas
sage. there was every chance IL would
not be. The purser and two OF his as
sistants sat at one of the shorter tables
with n plan before them. marking OFT
the names OF passengers who wished
TO be together, or who wanted some
particular place az any Of the tables
The smaller side tables were still un-
covered. because the number OF passen-
gers at that season OF the year was
comparatively small. As the places
were assigned, one OF the helpers 70 tho
purscr wrote the names OF the passen-
gers on small cards. and the other put
the cards on the tables.
One young woman. In a beautifully
fitted travelling gown. evidently OF the
newest cut and design, stood a little

Protection should Ne tho watchworc 81
tho Republican Party.

One of the most whimsical features
of the present political situation is the
determined effort that is being made to
persuade the republican party. that no
matter what else IL does. IL must eban-
don protection. IL is contended that
adherence TO that policy would be an
affront 10 gold democrats who made
such q manful stand for honest money
during the recent campaign and assist
ed materially in bringing about the
election of the republican presidential
candidates.
The Journal has already discussed
the attitude OF gold democrats. and ex-
pressed the opinion that gold demo-
Gratis, who supported Mr.. Mckinley,
have given no indication that they ex-
rect or ever hoped that their support OF
the republican candidate would induce
his party to abandon one of the cardinal
points of its creed.
Nor will il. If one thing is clearly
understood. IL Is that the American peo-
pie at the present time are clearly and
firmly committed TO the theory of pro-
lection. The experience OF the country
since 1893 with even modified free trade.
has been sufficient Under the most adj
vantageous circumstances the demo-
cratic party was permitted TO try it's
experiment. 1t began while the country
was enjoying unprecedented prosperi-
ty. IL ever there was chance 10 de-
monstrate the bcnefcence of the So
called "tariff reform" policy that was
the time.
But instead OF prosperity there was
immediate prostration OF the material
interests OF the land. business went to
pieces; mills and factories were closed;
the army of the unemployed grew To
alarming proportions; great strikes
broke out IN various pnrts OF the coun-
try, and generally disturbed condition
of affairs was brought about which bore
heavily on rich and poor alike.
The spirit of discomfort grew and
crystalized in political dempads which
threatened the very perpetNity OF the
republic. Under our form OF govern
mcnt popular discomfort is eertain TO
take alarming shapes, and VIZ have seen
il conclusivcly demonstrated That moth
Ing is so provocative Of popular dscon-
tent as governmental policies which
take work and bread from Americans
to give them 10 workmen in othrr lands
who are ready TO work for less than
Americans receive.
The essence. the vital spirit OF the re-
publican policy OF protection proposes to
look first after the interests and welfare
OF the American workman, and then.
il there is anything left to give II 10
the foreigner But America for Amer
leans. and American interests first.
These considerations effectually dis
pose OF all thought Of the abandonment
OF the American policy Of protection.
IL will not be abandoned, but on the con-
trary. IL will be strengthened whenever
additional strength is needed.-Albany

The steward took the cards that were
given him, and placed them TO cor

had named. Then the young woman
moved gracefully along. as If she were
interested In the names on the table.
She looked at Wentworth's name for
moment, and saw in the place next 20
his the name OF Mr.. Brown. She gave
quick, apprehensiye glance around the
saloon, and saw the two young men
who had arranged for their seats Mt
table now walking leisurely toward the
companionway. She took the card with
the name of Mr.. Brown upon IL, and
slipped upon the table another on which
was written: Miss Jennie Brewster"
Mr.. Browns card she placed on the
spot from which she had taken her own.
