ERWIN SPEAKS AT WAYCROss.
He Advocates the Gold standard and
a High Tariff.


Waycross, Ga, Oct. 31.-Col. Marion Err
win of Macon addressed an audience at
the court house this afternoon on the po-
litical issues of the day. The weather was
unfavorable for a large attendance, and
only forty-five persons were present. Mr..
Erwin first discussed the tariff issue, IL
Illustrating his thoughts by two parallel
pictures prepared by his artist friend. One
picture illustrated the good effect of 4
tariff for revenue and protection, show
ing the wheels of industry in operation,
the streams Of commerce. home and for
eign, equally proportional, being thus ad-
justed by reason of protective tariff
The other picture attempted to illustrate
the present condition in this country, al
legged to have been caused by the free
trade policy of the democratic party. HIS
exposition OF these subjects was log.cal
and comprehensive, and the colored pes
sons In the audience applauded.
Mr. Erwin then talked the money ques-
ton. His argument in favor of the main
tenance Of the gold standard was illus
trated by some homely comparisons that
were readily appreciated by the republi-
cans. He appealed to the audience for
their support on next Tuesday. He said
that he was an elector on the republican
ticket, and while he did not expect Geor-
gia to elect her republican ticket he hoped
that a strong protest from the people of
Georgia would be recorded next Tuesday
at the polls. Very few Palmer and Buck
ner supporters were present. Mr. Erwin
addressed large audience last night at

both were on their way home from a gin
when they met Tom Wood and a negro
named Rob Clifford. The two Phillips
brothers were armed, one with gun and
the other with a pistol, and the negro
who did the killing also carried a gun. The
men had had a quarrel and it was renewed
when they met 1t is alleged that Phillips
made an effort to shoot Wood, when the
latter emptled load Of shot into Phillips
breast just over the heart. Phillips fell

FORAKER SPEAKS AT CANTON.
Mckinley Leads the Cheers Given
the Senator on His Arrival.


Canton, o., Oct. 31.-With many a ring
ing cheer and many a stirring air from
two score bands, the last great day OF
the campaign at the home of the repubM-
can candidate came to an end. Senator
elect Foraker contributed handsomely to
the brilliant close of what has been per-
haps the most interesting day of the cam
paign Maj. Mckinley met Senator Fora
ker at the station at 5 o'clock, and when
some one proposed three cheers for the
distinguished guest Mai. Mckinley took
off his hat and led the cheering.
1t was dark when Senator Foraker
reached the Mckinley house, but a great
crowd awaited him. He made his ninety
seventh speech of the campaign from II
platform in Maj. McKinley's yard, and no
told the people some news from the west
that made them shout for Joy. When SEN
ator Foraker left to take the train for
Cleveland, where he speaks tonight, a
storm of cheers followed him. He was in
Canton just forty minutes.
Maj. Mckinley began speaking at an
early hour this morning, and was Kept
busy talking and receiving callers till
sunset. The largest delegation that has
visited Canton came this afternoon. 1t
was from Youngstown and other places
in the Mahoning valley and numbered
StVVV pCOpiSi A,VVV VI WHO'LL were women.
1t took this splendid Mahoning valley del
egation more than an hour to pass in re-
view before Maj. Mckinley. When the
parade came to a halt and the people
massed themselves in the streets and yard
about Maj. McKinley's house, the repub-
lican candidate looked down upon the
greatest and most inspiring audience that
has greeted him.
In addition to the visiting delegation
there were thousands of other people
pressing toward the stand. Every man,
woman and child carried flag, and when
MCKINLEY rose to speak, each flag was
waved and a great chorus of cheers roll
ed like surge of the sea up and down
the densely packed streets. Mai McKin-
ley had a prepared speech in his hand,
which he had expected to deliver, but he
could not do it. He was caught up in the
wave of enthusiasm which swirled and
eddied about him. He tossed the manu-
script aside and spoke, as he afterward
said, Gust what was in his heart" What
he said was echoed in 10000 hearts. When
he declared: There is just one class un-
der our flag, and we all belong to it."
such cheer went up as Canton never
heard before.
The call of several thousand Canton wo-
men upon Maj Mckinley was another
beautiful incident of a day that has been
pregnant with unique and stirring events.
The weather was delightful and the cam
paign could noe have closed more bril-
hantly and beautifully.

SOUTH CAROLINA sTEADFAsT.
The State to Go for Bryan by an
Overwhelming Majority.


Overwhelming Majority.
Columbia, S. c., Oct. 31.-South Carolina
is alone in the galaxy of states in the
coming general election. In this state it
is impossible to give almost as accurately
the votes the cast for the electoral ticket
before the ballots have been cast as after
wards. The state is free silver to the
core, so far as results are concerned. The
electoral ticket of the regular democracy,
which is solid for free silver will be elect
ed by an overwhelming majority.
There are two republican electoral tick
cts in the field, put up by the two fac
tions, and there are only $1,000 registered
republican voters in the state.
A Palmer Buckner ticket is in the field,
but it will get only few thousand votes.
The state chairman estimates that not
more than 5000 or 5000 votes will be cast
out of TIE total of 10000 shown by the
registration books.
So far as state tickets are concerned
there are three in the field. one the regular
democratic headed by Ellerbee, which win
be elected even by larger
majority than the electoral tick
ct, and the Pope and Wallace
republican tickets. The latter are in the
field simply to settle the republican fac
tional fight in this state, deciding which
has the greatest strength, and can, there
fore, claim recognition from the national
republican party.
In the congressional districts, the dem
ocratic candidates will be certainly elected,
Only one of them is an anti-silver man. In
one district, the republicans have agreed
To support one candidate only against the
democratic nominee, and this is to lay the
foundation for a fight in congress and in
the courts against the state registration
law and the suffrage clause of the new
constitution.
The new legislature to be elected will be
entirely democratic with one exception.
A negro republican will come from one
county to the lower house.
All counties will elect democratic county
officials, save one in which half the Off
Gals will be republicans.

A NEGRO our FOR BRYAN.

He Resents the Ostracism of His
Race by the Republicans.
Boston, Oct. 31.-The Rev. H. c. C. At
wood. minister Of st. PauTs ME-. church
at Cambridgeport. who has hitherto sup
ported McKinley's candidacy, has come
out squarely for Bryan. In letter he
says he cannot stiie his admiration of
this marvellous man as he pleads the cause
of the masses. The vital question with
the colored people is their ostracism by
the republican and gold bug democratic
parties, which teach that, while huddled
up in one political party, the negroes can
never call for anything in this country.
The republican managers, he says, by
establishing free American bureaus have
emphasized the supreme court decree Civ
ing the southern states the right to eject
negroes from common carrier into Jim
Crow cars.

Chicago. H., oct. Sl.-The last appeal
and warning 10 voters, together with an
estimate of the Bryan vote in the cleo
toral college, was issued by Senator Jones
on behalf of the democratic national COM
mittee to-day. He says:
The great struggle to right the wrong
of 1873 has been won. The only work re-
naming 10 be done is to see that the peo-
pie have the opportunity to vote as their
consciences dictate. and that their votes
shall be counted as cast.
1 urge all lovers Of the country and our
institutions to exert themselves as they
never have before in this holy cause.
Watch the polling places, scrutinize
every act at the polls, and see to it that
the law shall not be violated. This COM
mittee has offered a reward of $500 for
evidence necessary to convict any one
guilty of brlbing or attempting to bride
any voter to vote, or to refrain from vot-
ing; also a reward of $500 for evidence ia
convict and one Of coercing, attempting
to coerce, intimidating, or attempting 10
intimidate, a voter. Mr.. Hearst Of the
New York Journal, with the patriotism
and liberality which has characterized
him throughout this struggle, has OF
fered an additional reward Of $1,000 for
the same purpose. These rewards will re-
suit in the detection of any attempt {"
corrupt or coerce the voters and will de-
feat the republican conspiracy to steal
the election.
