CANDIDATES ENTERT AIMED.
An Informal Reception at the Rooms

An Informal Reception at the Rooms of
the Bayard Legion Democratic Cub.
An informal reception was given last
Thursday by the Bayard Legion Demo-
cratic Club in honor of the Candidates
on the Democratic ticket. The princi-
pal event of the evening was the pre-
sentation of the handsome caue which
had been won by Ebe w. Tunnel, the
candidate for Governor, in the recent
barbecue held at Shellpot Park under
the auspices of the congregation Of st.
Pstrick's Church.
Tho interior of the club house was
handsomely decorated with American
flags, bunting and Chinese lanterns,
and during the evening about 800
people were present, including most of
the State and county candidates on
the Democratic ticket.
Col. William b. Norton, president of
the club, made an address Of welcome,
in which he extended to the nominees
and other guests the hospitality of the
club. He introduced John Biggs, who
presented to Mr.. Tunnel the cane, in
behalf OF the congregation of st. Pat
rick's Church. He also made few re-
marks ON the political situation in the
State.
Mr.. Tunnel accepted the gift in the
following well-chosen words: Fellow
Democrats: l beg to assure you that |
have heard the announcement of my
success in the friendly contest for the
beautiful cane which you have pre-
sented to inc with great satisfaction and
pleasure. take this occasion to
thank the generous friends who by
their votes have made me the recipient
of this souvenir Of their generous con-
fidence. will always have pleasant
recollection of st. Patrick's Church and
the kind and gracious manner in which
| you gentlemen have been pleased to
make this presentation.
| Short addresses were made by Gen.
Riley, City Councilman O'Neil, Reg
lister of Wills Crossap, John p. Dona-
hoe, +. S. Gore, Robert Justis, George
| Willis, John Boughman, Thomas +.
0'Donnell and Others and vocal and in
strumental music was furnished by W.
II. Robinson, Will M. S. Brown, Horace
| b. Harrison, John j. Gilbride, Alexander
Butler, Aaron Berg, Alfred Bradford,
Master Willie bradford and others.
The guests were invited to the dining
room, where tempting supper had
bean prepared and TO which all did
justice. The evening was enioyably
passed. and during most of the time the
candidates circulated among those who
bad gathered at the club house and
cbatted with them.
The success OF the affair was due tc
the abba management of the committee
Walter A. McEvilly, John W. Adyor
and Daniel O'Neill--and their fellow,
members in the club.

power of all fixed wages and for time
reduction in the wages OF all en-
ployes.'' On the other hand Mr.. Ros-
sell read from a speech of l.. Irving
Handy in favor Of using silver and
then read it again with tin suggested in
place OF the silver.
Mr.. Rossell advised his hearers to
take home the serious question with
them and discuss it with their wives,
and asked them il they were ready to
have the purchasing power Of their
wages cut down. He reminded them
that to cast ballot is to perform the
highest duty to self and country. He
felt sure il the question was properly
considered that the free silver idea
would be buried under an avalanche of
ballots, buried so deep that it will not
come up again in this generation.
Although he had the highest per-
sonal regard for Mr.. Handy, the Con-
gressional candidate, yet he could not
endorse his views. The Honost-Money
Democrats had been called boilers be-
cause they would not follow the Popo-
Gratis. We are called boilers, said MIR.
Rossell, by such men who in 1888
allowed part Of the Democratic ticket
to be defeated, and allowed Republi
cans to get into power. The Honest
Money Democrats stand for true Demo
cratic principles, sound money and
wages with full purchasing power, and
support every man on the State and
county ticket. Yet they are called
boilers by men who are traducing the
one. man the Democrats have been able
to elect President in 30 years. The
speaker held that Bryan's argument
against the alleged misdeeds Of the
! President was enough to justify q
Democra. in voting against him. Add
to that, that he voted for Weaver, the
Populist, in 1892, and since his nomi-
nation has affirmed that il the Chicag,
convention had decided against him
and named sound-money man, he
would not have abided by that de-
cision. With the adoption of the Chi.
caeo idea of free silver and free ruin
the Democratic party may go to il
ruin. Mr.. Rossel closed by urging thu
men to do what they could to aver
calamity, to save the country and thu
party.

weyler's inhuman butcheries still

Weyler's inhuman butcheries still
cou,inue, and other civilized govern
ments look on and say not word. All
the powers are looking at Turkey now,
and forgetting how the Cuban patriots
are struggling against fearful odds for
their lives. Spain has long ago shown
that she cannot suppress the rebellion,
and there is no reason under Heaven
why the brave men who are fighting for
their wives, their children and homes
should not be rendered helping hand
from Christian governments. Every day
gives accounts OF new tortures to prison
ers by Weyler's cannibals, vet this gov
ernment who should remember our strug-
gle for independence, sits calmly by and
allows it to go on. II is to be hoped that
when the new president is elected he
will show enough humanity in his soul
10 lend helping hand to a needy and
deserving people. Later news is to the
effect that Spain, realizing that it is i'm
possible for her to whip plucky little
Cuba, has decided to cease hostilities af-
ter March lst and allow the Cubans their
well-deserved freedom. Yet Spain is the
country that wanted to thrash the whey
out of the United States last spring.

GEORGIA REPARTEE.

One of tho Funny Incidents Occurring
at the Atlanta Exposition.
From the Philadelphia Record: Quite
funny are some of the experiences mar
rated by persons returning from the
Atlanta exposition. A local newspaper
man, who got back from the South on
Monday, tells this one on himself.
Upon arriving in Atlanta he chartered
a hack, and with that fine scorn Of
pecuniary considerations characteristic
Of his profession ordered the driver to
convey him to the "best hotel in town."
Entering the really gorgeous caravan
sary, he dropped his grip before the
desk, held pen poised above the reg
lister and inquired: What kind of a
room can you give me, and how much?"
The clerk, typical Southerner, with
sallow complexion, dropping mus
tache and long goatee, replied, in an
indifferent sort of tone: well, sub,
All ken give yo' fo'th flo room fob TO-
dollahs a day, subj" "Fo'th flo fob
dollars" repeated the visitor facetious-
ly, mimicking the soft, Southern ac-
a first floor room for one dollar, eh?"
moo, suh," drawled the naughty
Georgian, "Ah koin't give yo' a. fust
flo room fob one dollah, sub; but All
ken give yo' room without any flo at
all fob nothin', sub. Jest go down thar
to the balm and inqui' fob the newell
pabtments" The Philadelphia made
no further attempt to have fun with the
natives during his stay in Atlanta.
