rILLMAN GETS A PICCHFORk.
The SoutF Carolinian Was Amazed
ut Denver When His Favorite I'M
plement Was Given Him


A dispatch from Denver says Sena-
tor Ben Tillman, Of South Carolina is
curiosity in Colorado. His attack
on President Cleveland was extensive
ly circulated in this State, and when
in Denver this week thousands of peo-
pie docked about him as street urchins
would follow a minstrel parade. y
The Senator held an informal recep-
tion at the Brown palace hotel Friday
evening, and people of all political an
cestry were entertained. A newly
formed Tillman club marched up the
street at seasonable hour of the
night and Tillman and his guests stood
before the hotel and received the pro-
cession. Members OF the club held
transparencies and pitchforks, and at
ented the Senator with a fullsized
pitchfork, the tines of which are of
silver tipped with gold.
In speaking OF the national political
outlook, Senator Tillman declared that
the silverites would have slight ma
jority in the Chicago convention, hut
have little show Of accomplishing
much in ST. Louis.

convention there will be a split" said

The Fall Festival Flower committee

This action was taken by the ladies

No law FoR CLFvELAND.

In his speech at the sesqul-Centen-
NAL celebration Of Princeton college
President Cleveland placed great stress
on the statement that the people by
their ballots cannot alter natural laws.
IT, however, he had been called upon to
designate what he regards as natural
laws he probably would have included
some which are the subjects of g. diff
ference of opinion.
1t is not uncommon for Statesmen TO
class as natural laws not a few of those
with which they are DESTROYS that there
should be no Interference. Mr. Cleve-
land should have been more explicit as
to his meaning if it was his desire that
the public should attach any import
ance to his utterance. Ut is a natural
law that water shall flow only down
hill and yet it has been made to flow up
hill
There is one thing, however, which
the people realize their ability to do
through the medium Of their ballots
and Mr.. Cleveland is in an excellent Pc
sition to realize it also-that is to re-
tire to private life public officials who
disregard and violate statute laws.
Although avoiding names and care
fully worded the presidents Princeton
address was q strong manifestation Of
his opposition to Bryan.
The president evidently does not re-
gard the civil service regulations as
applying to himself. He violates his
own rules with as little hesitancy as he
does the acts of congress.

A LESSON IN CHARITY.
Boys and Girls Of the City
Schools
Giving One Cent Each to Buy
Shoes
For Poor Children Who Can't Go to
School Because They Have None
"A Mrs. Thorpe idea Started
in the Journal

An item recently appeared in the
State Journal saying that if all of the
school children in the city would con
tribute one cent each, all of the Door
children who were kept out Of school
because they had not shoes to wear to
school could be supplied. The school
children acted on the suggestion and
viii donate $50 in penny subscriptions to
the shoe fund.
The item was suggested to the State
Journal by Mrs. Thorpe. who after
ward wrote to Superintendent David
son about it.
1T struck me when saw the chill
dren in the Fan Festival parade that
if / had a penny from each of them,
thirty or forty children i knew might
have shoes they needed to go to school
with she wrote. and L have deter
mined to ask you if such subscription
might not be arranged
The letter reached Mr.. Davidson at
Colorado Springs and he consented to
such an arrangement
The work is going on this week
The principals OF each of the twenty
schools have charge of the subscrip-
ton and il is handed in by the pupils
as they choose. They have all been
given to understand what the subscrip-
ton is for and are contributing hber-
ally.
Frank Beck of Mr.. Davidson's Office
mas charge OF the FUNDS ana When the
subscription is complete viii turn it
over to Mrs. Thorpe. and good, plain,
stout shoes viii be purchased with it
for children who really want to go to
school and cannot for the reason
named.
80 far" says Mr. Beck, five of the
schools have reported and the aver
age is more than one cent per pupil. As
we have over 5000 enrolled this year
we shall probably secure in this way
about $50 we desire to not make pub
lie the itemized subscriptions from the
schools until they are all in. While
we are willing to have the canvass, If
it could be called that. go on quietly,
we do not wish to make it competitive
between the schools to the detriment
of the studies"
1t was hoped to finish the subscrip-
ton this week. but the pupils viii be
allowed to take their time to it. A
great many Of the children are giving
five cents.

ATHLETES TO WEAR SOCKS
Parents Object to Barefoot Harvard
Escorts for Their Daughters.

Cambridge. Mass. Oct. 23.-Repeated
complaints are coming to the Cam
bridge police about the costumes, or
rather the lack of costumes, of the
Harvard athletes, who every afternoon
run through the streets of Cambridge
for exercise.
Two years ago similar complaints
were made and the result was that the
captains of the various teams united in
a. circular letter asking the candidates
to wear more clothing while exercising,
but the clothing has been getting less
and less and again the inhabitants Of
Cambridge have asked the police au-
thorities to take immediate action.
They say they do not mind merely
having the students run in the streets
with their tight-lttins running trunks
and no stockings at ALL but they do OBJ
5ect to having their daughters walking
around with men in such costumes. It
is thought that the faculty viii issue

OHIO VERY DOUBTFUL.
Great Republican Detection in Rural
Districts Aids Bryan.

Columbus. O., Oct 2S-The Ohio cleo
ton is less than two weeks away, and
the fog Of uncertainty as to whether
Governor Mckinley will have as large
a majority as Governor Bushnell Sc
cured last fall. or whether he viii have
any majority at all. still hangs over
the situation The Democrats, aided
by their POpuliSt allies, are claiming
that indications point to the defeat OF
Mckinley IN Ohio. and Chairman Dur
bin is out in an interview today giving
reasons for the faith that IS within
him. The Republicans are working
day and night, and Chairman Kurtz is
content with the single remark that
Ohio is safe for the Republican ticket.
There is no Disgusting the fact that
the fusion between the Democrats ana
Populists that seems to be perfect, and
the attitude Of opposition by a
large portion Of the laboring elemen IN
Ohio to Mckinley. is giving the Repub-
lican committee much to think about.
The worst detection. however, from the
Republican ranks appears to be among
the farmers. who have so far refused
to fall into line and who have gone
over to the free silver ranks in urOVeS-
Bad reports continue to come IN from
portions of the state where heretofore
the Republicans have been invlncibls.
And this uprising against Mckinley
is not the work Of the Democratic
Populist mana cement. The state com
rnittee is doing absolutely nothing but
kick up q dust and pose. The Repub-
UCan voters OF ONO are Simply teAfAAAA7
matters into their own hands and re-
fuse to be placated
The strength Of the National Demo-
cratic organization is predetermined.
Thirty thousand votes are claimed, but
the figures are too high. They will, of
course aid Mckinley largely, and with
the railroads. the banks and other cor
porate interests may turn the tide
This week hundreds of speeches are
being made by the Republicans, and
one last desperate effort is being made
to drive back the deserters. Upon the
success of such a movement much de-
ponds. but today Ohio is in the bal
ance The free silver idea has not
vet been stamped out; in fact, it is
spreading. and in localities where the
manag gers thought they had it killed 1t
is running like wild fire in the prairie
Chairman Kurtz admits that the sit
uation is not as rosy as it was two
weeks ago
Mr.. Bryan's tour through Ohio has
added fuel to the flames and makes the
election of Mckinley more doubtful
daily.
